Chapter 104 Discipline

Secretary Guan...

The moment he heard this name, Jiang Wan subconsciously recalled whether he had ever heard of this person.

After all, there are not many people who can make Jiang Yan, the special assistant to the chairman of Shaw Group, greet him in such a polite tone, even in the circle of powerful people in Beijing.

Unfortunately, after quickly reviewing his memory, Jiang Wan found nothing.

When walking out of the elevator with Jiang Yan, the man called Secretary Guan did not rush into the elevator. After his eyes passed over her inadvertently, he nodded and smiled at Jiang Yan.

"Thank you for your concern, Special Assistant Jiang. It's been a while since we last met. How is Mr. Shao these days?"

His tone was very calm, not distant but not extremely familiar either.

Jiang Yan smiled.

"Everything is fine, sir. It's just that due to the bidding for the major projects to be launched on the South Extension Line, of course, it is still a little busier than before."

The moment he heard the words "Nanyanxian", a barely perceptible gleam flashed across Guan Li's gentle eyes behind the thin lenses, but the curve of his lips was still just right.

"Boss Shao has always been a man of deep thoughts and considerations. It's normal for him to be busy at such a critical moment."

Hearing Guan Li almost easily avoid the key topic, Jiang Yan didn't care.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two shook hands and said goodbye.

The elevator door slowly closed, and Jiang Wan followed Jiang Yan towards the lounge where Shao Ting was, having already sensed some clues in his mind.

The conversation between the two seemed polite, but they tacitly did not ask each other, or why the person behind each other appeared here.

The most crucial point is that both of them mentioned Shao Ting, but did not reveal any information about the person behind Secretary Guan.

Most likely...it's because that person's identity is not convenient to mention.

Of course, there may also be reasons for avoiding her as an outsider.

Based on the clue that Jiang Yan took the initiative to mention the South Extension Line Project, Jiang Wan ruled out the possibility that the other party was related to Junjian Capital.

The only possibility is that the man is not a business person.

Of course Jiang Yan noticed that Jiang Wanbi had been silent for a while, but he just thought that she was a little nervous because she was about to meet Shao Ting.

He stopped shortly afterwards and knocked on the door.

"Sir, Miss Jiang is here."

A familiar man's voice soon came from the inner room.

"Enter."

Jiang Wan's eyes moved slightly, and he walked in.

The door was quickly closed by Jiang Yan.

After seeing the scene in the lounge clearly, Jiang Wan finally understood why Jiang Yan could see him.

The view from this room is truly perfect, and you can almost take in the entire garden through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

It was just that the surroundings were so quiet, and the man with extremely handsome features was leaning against the sofa behind him, with the collar of his dark black shirt slightly open, and he was looking over with his eyes slightly closed.

The warm light seemed a little dim against the night sky, and made the man's gaze seem even more silent like the abyss, so dark that it made people instinctively feel panicky.

Even though it was very obscure, Jiang Wan was still extremely keen to perceive the scrutiny and inquiry hidden in his eyes.

Her breathing became slightly tense, and her heart couldn't help but heave for a moment.

But only for a moment.

She quickly walked over to the man and leaned down slightly to look at him.

"Mr. Shao, what's wrong with you?"

Uncomfortable?

Shao Ting frowned imperceptibly, and when he was about to open his mouth, he saw the girl raising her hand to touch his forehead, and he heard her whispering in his ear.

"Mr. Shao, your face is so red, do you have a fever?"

The already tender and lingering voice now sounded even more endearing and extraordinary.

Shao Ting's eyes suddenly darkened, and the moment her hand was about to fall on his forehead, he grabbed her slender white wrist. The blue veins on the back of her hand suddenly stretched out and were extremely eye-catching.

The alcohol had taken a toll on him, and he said in a hoarse voice, "No, I just had a few drinks."

Jiang Wan only then smelled the faint smell of alcohol on him, and murmured in a soft voice: "Special Assistant Jiang said that you are not feeling well..."

He stopped talking before he finished.

Wouldn't it be unpleasant to drink alcohol?

Her ears immediately turned red, and she said shyly, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood."

Jiang Wan pursed her lips and was about to withdraw her hand, but found that she had no strength at all.

She raised her eyes in confusion, but met the man's deep and silent gaze.

The two of them were too close at this moment, their senses were almost infinitely magnified, and every detail of each other's expressions could be clearly seen by each other.

Jiang Guan's thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and moisture gradually appeared in her eyes.

"Shao Ting, you pinched me and hurt me."

She called out his full name for the first time, and Shao Ting quickly let go.

His eyes fell on the girl's wrist.

That spot was incredibly soft and white, and he didn't even use any force, but the red was particularly eye-catching.

"Feel sorry."

If it was his own fault, Shao Ting would not hesitate to apologize.

In fact, Jiang Wan didn't feel any pain. She was just showing weakness to make the man lose some of his guard and suspicion towards her.

So she quickly shook her head and sat down obediently opposite Shao Ting.

"Is Mr. Shao drunk?"

Shao Ting confirmed that she was indeed fine, then he denied it in a deep voice: "No."

He paused and asked, "Come to attend the exchange meeting?"

Jiang Wan's eyebrows curved slightly and he nodded: "Yes, my friend brought me here."

Shao Ting's eyes stayed on her for a few seconds. He didn't ask who her friend was. He just asked, "Do you know Fu Chi?"

Jiang Wan had long anticipated that Shao Ting would be suspicious when he saw her and Fu Chi together.

But since the man asked Jiang Yan to bring her up, it naturally meant that his suspicion was not absolute, otherwise he could have checked her background clearly in private.

Thinking of this, she steadied her breathing and hummed softly.

The next moment he seemed to remember something and denied it hesitantly.

"Actually, I don't really know him. I've seen him before when I was working as a receptionist, but it wasn't until he came to me just now that I officially knew his name."

She did not directly state what kind of entanglement there was between her and Fu Chi.

Sometimes explaining things too clearly can seem deliberate.

These few words are enough to explain the relationship between her and Fu Chi.

Shao Ting slightly lowered his heavy eyelids, and paused for a moment on her overly beautiful face before asking, "Have you ever encountered any trouble as a receptionist in the past?"

Hearing that the man's tone had inadvertently softened a little, Jiang Wan pursed her lips.

"Of course, but I seem to be very lucky. Whenever trouble comes, I can always solve it easily."

She paused and suddenly chuckled: "Just like what happened with Qin Xiaoqi last time, I was lucky to meet you."

As she said this, she looked at him longingly, and the gratitude in her eyes did not seem fake.

Shao Ting paused for a rare moment, holding her in his sight for a few seconds before speaking again: "If it's not necessary, don't come to this kind of occasion alone."

Jiang Wan blinked her thick eyelashes lightly, and suddenly smiled.

"Mr. Shao, are you disciplining me?"

Her dark, clear eyes stared straight at him, and when a smile gathered in her eyes, she looked particularly charming.

There was a barely visible ripple in Shao Ting's eyes, and his voice was deep.

"It's advice."

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the girl drooped her eyelashes and showed a look of disappointment.

"Oh, what a shame."
