Lame Wang focused on the contract carefully, practically reading every page twice, for he was afraid to fall into a trap among the words.
Gu Yusheng wasnât in hurry at all. He leaned against the chair lazily, showing a sense of indifference. He didnât move except to raise his hand from time to time to take a drag of his cigarette.
After about ten minutes had passed, Lame Wang closed the contract and laughed at Gu Yusheng with satisfaction, âIâve heard before that the staff in Mr. Guâs company were all elite. They really are. How could they draft such a logical and well-organized contract in such a short time? How admirable!â
Facing a compliment from Lame Wang, Gu Yusheng showed no reaction with a calm look.
Nevertheless, Lame Wang wasnât mad at his ignorance. He continued to read the contract, then put it on the table and pointed at an empty cup. The woman by his side immediately poured a cup of hot tea for him. He picked it up and drank the tea, then raised his chin toward the contract, continuing, âIf thereâs no disagreement, letâs just sign it!â
The woman, who was kneeling nearby to make tea, immediately knew what she had to do and passed the contract to Gu Yusheng.
Gu Yusheng still ignored his words. He raised his hand slowly with his eyes downcast to bring the cigarette to his mouth and leisurely inhaled. Then he slowly blew out a beautiful smoke ring. After the smoke from his nose had all faded away, he finally raised his eyes and took a glance at the contract on the table.
Seeing him not make any reaction, Lame Wang opened his mouth again. âMr. Gu forgot to bring his pen here? Someone get a pen for Mr. Gu!â
âYes,â someone standing among the men in black responded. A golden pen was soon handed to Gu Yusheng.
âMr. Gu, please.â Lame Wang reached out his hand in a gesture of politeness.
Gu Yusheng remained silent and emotionless for a while, his eyes looking down. Then he crushed the cigarette stub and lifted his head to look at Lame Wang, saying, âMr. Wang, youâve forgotten something.â
Lame Wang couldnât figure out the meaning of Gu Yushengâs words at first, so he was shocked. âHmm?â
Gu Yusheng pressed his lips together and straightened his body. âMr. Wang, youâve already checked the âgoods,â now itâs my turn.â
Lame Wang finally understood what Gu Yusheng meant and said, âIt turns out that youâre afraid that Miss Liang isnât here?â While speaking, Lame Wang made a sign to the man on his left. âTake Miss Liang here!â
Qin Zhiâai was led there with honor, indeed.
No more than a minute after the man in black had left, the door opened again. The man in black took one step forward, then stood by the door and bowed respectfully to Qin Zhiâai, one hand reaching out. Then Qin Zhiâai walked into the room calmly.
After Qin Zhiâai had walked about three feet into the room, the two strong and large men following behind her stopped by the man in black who had been sent to get Qin Zhiâai.
Next, the men in black who had been standing behind Lame Wang swiftly took several steps forward and stopped by the chair Gu Yusheng was sitting on, standing in between him and Qin Zhiâai.
Lame Wang is afraid that Iâll fight to take Qin Zhiâai⦠So as long as I take action, sheâll definitely be grabbed by the three men in black, Gu Yusheng observed the layout of the room secretly.
