The paranoid boss always tries to trick me

Chapter 170 The Call of the Mysterious Man

Song Yunrou raised his eyelids, his face a little embarrassed.

The job badge on his chest looked like a joke at this moment.

With a cold snort, she knocked off Shen Shi's shoulder and walked forward.

After Gu Wanran returned to the department, he learned that the Song family and Mingyuan had terminated their cooperation, and when he thought about Song Yunrou's arrogant and domineering appearance just now, he felt a little ridiculous.

"Director, I made some adjustments to the soap formula last time, please take a look." Jiang Rong came over with the information and showed it to Gu Wanran.

Although the last formula was successfully passed by Jiang Yuechen, some people in the board of directors made some dissatisfied suggestions, so they had to modify it.

Gu Wanran glanced roughly, nodded and said, "Put it here, I'll show it to Mr. Jiang in the afternoon."

"Ok."

Jiang Rong went back to work, and Gu Wanran continued to do what she was doing. It was not until the afternoon that she read the formula carefully and took it to the president's office.

Knocking on the door, Shen Shi's voice came from inside: "Come in."

Gu Wanran opened the door and walked in, said hello to Shen Shi and Jiang Yuechen politely, then went over and put the information on Jiang Yuechen's table: "This is a new formula for soap, take a look."

Jiang Yuechen nodded lightly, but did not rush to look.

He seemed to have something to tell Shen Shi, Gu Wanran left with interest, and the moment she closed the door, she seemed to hear the names "Mubai" and "Yuan Xia".

Back in the office, she recalled the name Shen Shi mentioned just now, and took out her mobile phone to send a message to Yuan Xia.

It wasn't until after get off work in the evening that this message was answered: "I was filming, my phone was taken away by my manager, what's the matter?"

Gu Wanran asked directly about her current relationship with Mu Bai.

Yuan Xia replied quickly: "I haven't been in touch with him for a long time, and I rarely hear about him in the circle. I heard that he is going to participate in a variety show, but I don't know the specifics."

Yuan Xia: "Why did you suddenly ask him? Have you heard any news?"

Gu Wanran simply passed the past vaguely, and did not tell Yuan Xia the truth, after all, she herself did not know what happened.

People in the office left one after another, and finally Uncle Liu was left.

While packing his things, he looked at Gu Wanran and said, "Aren't you off work yet? Do you want to go eat something together?"

Gu Wanran shook her head: "No, I'm going to make some perfume, Uncle Liu, you should go back first."

"Okay, if it's too late and there's no subway, just call me and I'll pick you up."

Uncle Liu came over and patted Gu Wanran on the shoulder: "Your father was the champion of the perfume competition back then, I believe you can do better than him."

Perfume contest...

Gu Wanran's heart suddenly moved, and he quickly grabbed Uncle Liu's sleeve: "Uncle Liu, do you know what the Jiang family had to do with the perfume contest back then?"

"The Jiang family?" Uncle Liu frowned slightly, "I don't know, I was busy with other things at that time, so I didn't pay much attention to this matter."

After a pause, he suddenly seemed to think of something: "Oh yes, the Jiang family seems to be one of the sponsors of the competition, there seems to be something else going on, I don't remember very clearly, I also heard a judge say have to."

"The judge... is it Zheng Linwen?"

"Huh? It seems to be the name, how do you know?"

Gu Wanran pursed her lips. This is what Gu Linshan told her at the time, the person who was still active in the industry after the perfume competition.

But after she went to investigate, she found out that in the past few years, Zheng Linwen suddenly announced his retirement, and he did not appear in the public eye again. If he wants to see him, he can only wait for this perfume competition. He will participate as a judge. Gu Wanran will be able to see it from time to time.

Withdrawing her thoughts, she smiled at Uncle Liu: "Go back quickly, it's already very late."

"Okay, remember what I told you just now, if you miss the subway, you must call me to pick you up."

Seeing that Gu Wanran nodded obediently, Uncle Liu walked towards the door.

Gu Wanran turned around, held the perfume bottle in thought, and suddenly heard Uncle Liu at the door surprised, "Boss Jiang? Have you left yet?"

Jiang Yuechen?
Gu Wanran trembled all over, stood up reflexively and looked towards the door.

A handsome and tall man stood in front of the door, his clear gaze slowly fell from Uncle Liu to this side.

"Boss Jiang..." Gu Wanran didn't know how much he heard, and felt guilty and nervous.

She hurriedly urged Uncle Liu: "Uncle Liu, hurry back, your youngest son is still waiting for you."

"Okay, then I'll go first."

Uncle Liu smiled slightly, greeted Jiang Yuechen and left.

The sound of his footsteps gradually faded away, Jiang Yuechen put his knuckle hand on the door, gently pushed the door outward, and walked in step by step.

Every step he took was very slow, but every step hit his heart, making Gu Wanran's scalp tingle for a while.

She stepped back and leaned on the table, resisting the panic in her heart, and kept calm watching Jiang Yuechen approaching step by step.

"What were you talking about just now?" Jiang Yuechen asked coldly.

Gu Wanran shook her head: "It's nothing, I just talked about the upcoming competition, and said a few things about my father's participation in the competition."

"Zheng Linwen."

Jiang Yuechen spit out these three words in a cold voice.

Gu Wanran squeezed his palms, and said: "My father was the judge in the competition, but it seems to have disappeared in the past two years."

"Yes, but he's going to show up soon, isn't he?" Jiang Yuechen's cold eyes were filled with a frightening emotion.

He put his cold palm on Gu Wanran's cheek: "When the time comes, do you want to ask him what happened back then?"

Gu Wanran shook her head again and again: "No...don't want to..."

She looked at Jiang Yuechen without any mistakes, and tried to explain: "I just want to know the information about the competition in advance. If the judges have some special hobbies, I will also consider them."

Jiang Yuechen's sharp eagle-like eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, and there was a hint of sarcasm in them, as if he was telling her clumsy lies.

Gu Wanran's hands began to tremble, her throat was slightly sluggish, and she kept thinking about what to say so that Jiang Yuechen would let her go.

Just as she was racking her brains to think of an excuse, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

"Mr. Jiang, it's time for us to go. Mr. Li is already waiting."

The coldness in Jiang Yuechen's eyes gradually dissipated, he slowly withdrew his hand, took two steps back, and slightly hooked the corner of his lips, but there was no warmth: "I hope that as you said, it can meet the needs of all of them, and get No .1."

Gu Wanran didn't say a word, she knew it was a threat.

If he couldn't do it, Jiang Yuechen might bring up the old matter again.

He put his hands in his pockets, turned around and walked out of the office, leaving with Shen Shi.

Gu Wanran breathed a sigh of relief quietly, sat down on the office chair, and stared at the small bottle of perfume on the table.

Every time something related to Jiang's family was mentioned, Jiang Yuechen was always furious. Gu Wanran was already very lucky to be able to escape smoothly this time.

She sat there holding the perfume bottle for a long time, and was no longer in the mood to continue making her perfume.

After packing up the relevant materials and putting them in her bag, she walked out of the office holding the perfume bottle.

Ever since the perfume was stolen last time, she has been carrying all these with her, not daring to put them in the office.

Fortunately, Mrs. Jiang is no longer here, otherwise she would not be able to keep this bottle of perfume if she checked her things twice a day.

Back in the villa, she returned to her room after dinner, flipping through books related to perfume to increase her knowledge reserves.

Until ten o'clock in the evening, when she was about to go to bed, her phone kept ringing.

It was a string of unfamiliar numbers, she picked up the phone: "Hello?"

"Gu Wanran?" A hoarse man's voice with an electric sound came from the phone, with a feeling of depression and gloom.

Gu Wanran glanced at the number again, and said cautiously: "Who are you?"

"I am the one who knows everything. I have all the answers you want, including what happened to your family and Jiang's family back then."

The tone of the speech was familiar for a moment, but Gu Wanran couldn't match it with any voice in his memory.

She tried to ask: "I think, getting these answers should be conditional?"

"You are very smart." The man said, "Yes, I want you to do one thing for me, and this is not a bad thing for you."

"You said."

"Continue to curry favor with Jiang Yuechen, get me information from him, and I will slowly tell you everything I know."

"Are you targeting Jiang Yuechen?"

Gu Wanran directly knew this person, but no matter how much she searched in her mind, she couldn't find anyone who could overlap with him.

"You don't need to know so much. Now, I can tell you one thing first." The tone of the mysterious man suddenly became a little unnatural, as if he was deliberately changing his familiar way of speaking, weird and strange, "Jiang Yuechen He has been taking revenge on you all the time, in the past and now, even though he treats you better now, it is all his plan."

"He makes you feel fear first, eradicates all dependence around you, and finally treats you a little gentler, making you gradually rely on him. At this time, you will be his most convenient tool, Gu Wanran, what do you think? At that time, what will he do with you?"

Gu Wanran's chest felt heavy, she pursed her lips and said, "I'm not a fool, so I won't really obey him."

The mysterious man suddenly laughed, and there was a burst of anger hidden in the ridiculousness: "But aren't you already wavering now? What I said will come soon, and he will let you, the former eldest lady, , completely fell into the abyss, and let you live a dirty life lying in the mud, only in this way, he will feel that he has taken revenge and feel happy."

He said again: "Do we dare to gamble? Tomorrow, I will let you see his true face and plan."

The phone was hung up immediately, without even giving Gu Wanran a chance to question and ask questions.

Subconsciously, she didn't want to believe this kind of thing, but when she thought of what Jiang Yuechen had said to her from the beginning, she had some doubts.

tomorrow……

Looking at the date, tomorrow is not a special day. Since the mysterious person said that something will happen, she might as well wait and see what happens.

Putting the phone on the bedside table, Gu Wanran went to bed and lay down, turned off the light, and fell into a deep dream.

That was not a very good dream. In the dream, she was trapped in the net, no matter how she tried to escape, she just stood still.
