C58 Stupid (1/2)
The receptionist looked at the access form, ”My apologies, eldest miss. The form says that it's free tea time, and I don't know where the general manager is.”
”Alright, then I'll go upstairs and take a look.”
”Sure thing!”
The tour elevator stopped on the 23rd floor and the two walked out of the elevator. Zhou Muwan walked straight to an office and knocked on the door.
When there was no answer, she knocked a few more times, but still no reply.
”Sister Wan, did he just go out at the right time?” Gu Nanyin whispered.
”It can't be. The office is full, and now is the critical period for the annual evaluation. He should be working hard!”
The two of them went down to the lobby again. Zhou Muwan took a deep breath and walked to the front desk, ”Why isn't Supervisor He in the office? ”Where did he go?”
”Manager He?” The reception elder sister was confused.
Zhou Muwan nodded, ”That's right, General Manager He, General Manager He.”
”Oh ~ Miss, you're talking about Director Zhang, right?”
”Director He?” Zhou Muwan frowned, ”When did he get promoted?” Why didn't anyone tell me? ”
”I-I don't know either. Maybe the HR Department neglected this matter.” The reception elder sister stammered.
”Sister Wan.” Gu Nan Yin pulled her arm and whispered, ”That's not the main point. They don't know about your relationship right now, so you should be happy.”
Zhou Muwan glanced at her, then looked at the reception elder sister, who had her head lowered. She waved her hand and said, ”Forget it, this isn't your fault. Check where Director He has gone to.”
”There's no need to check. Today is the day that Director He proposed to Miss Lulu. He asked for a leave of absence.” The receptionist immediately looked up and smiled.
Zhou Muwan felt her head buzz, ”What did you say? ”Say it again.” She could not believe her ears.
The reception elder sister was a bit puzzled, so she could only repeat, ”Today is the day that Director He and Miss Lulu propose …”
”Stop it, stop it.” Gu Nan Yin signaled the receptionist with her eyes as she spoke to stop her in a low voice. The receptionist immediately covered her mouth.
Gu Nan Yin turned to look at the green-faced Zhou Mu Wan. She was grinding her teeth until they creaked. Gu Nan Yin quickly helped her sit down at the side.
”Hurry up and pour your Miss a cup of water!” Gu Nan Yin said to the flabbergasted reception elder sister.
”Yes, yes, yes.” The reception elder sister reacted by jogging away.
”Sister Wan, don't be angry. Perhaps, perhaps …”
”What else could it be, this shitty guy.” Zhou Muwan said in a low growl, gritting her teeth.
”Sister Wan, don't be anxious, who is Miss Lu? Do you know him? ”
Zhou Muwan was so angry that her fingers almost dug into the leather sofa, ”She's a cousin of mine, pure and kind, with some family wealth. That bastard He Xianlin, he's too much.”
At this time, the reception elder sister handed over a cup of water. Gu Nan Yin took it and motioned for her to leave.
”Come, drink your saliva slowly. Let's go find that trash of a man and settle the score.”
Zhou Muwan glanced at her, then pushed away the cup of water and walked to the front desk. ”Do you know the time and place of Director He's proposal?”
”Eight o'clock tonight, Surna Bridge.”
