Bureau Chief Chen welcomed them with a smile and asked everyone to find a seat for President Zuo. It was as if they had already made an agreement. The few people beside Bai Weiwei immediately stood up, indicating that Zuo Hancheng should sit over there.
Zuo Hancheng only glanced in that direction and did not seem to understand what they meant. He looked at the sofa on the other side and said,””Chief Chen, it’s hard to refuse your kindness, but I still have something to do tonight. I can’t sit for too long.”
He glanced at Anhao and she followed him. Both of them ignored the empty seat beside Bai Weiwei.
Bai Weiwei, who had been calm all this while, now looked a little stiff. Those who had taken the initiative to give up their seats saw this situation and were afraid that she would be too embarrassed. They quickly sat back down and took the initiative to find a topic to chat with Zuo Hancheng.
Anhao did not notice what those people were talking about with Zuo Hancheng, but Chief Yu seemed to be very curious about her and asked directly,””Gu Anhao, right? I know you’re the chief designer of this provincial reconstruction project. The design proposal that you’re in charge of is really not bad. Our leader has always praised your design level.”
“Thank you.” Anhao smiled.” This job is also my first official job after I came back from studying abroad. I’m very grateful to all the leaders for not giving up on me. That’s why I’m lucky enough to be able to participate in this.””
“So it’s the designer.” A person sitting next to Bai Weiwei suddenly interjected with a smile,””Is he the one who was favored by President Zuo in T City last time? I heard that President Zuo once mentioned that he would hand over the transformation case of Shengling Group to you. Is that true?”
As soon as the man finished speaking, the other men who did not know the situation immediately looked at Anhao with ambiguous eyes, as if she was just a woman who was temporarily favored by Zuo Hancheng and was not worthy of being Bai Weiwei’s opponent.
Bureau Chief Chen kept winking at those people. Those people looked at Bureau Chief Chen in confusion and said with a smile,”By the way, Chief Chen, didn’t you plan to invite President Zuo a long time ago? But President Zuo hasn’t had the time to come. This time, you asked Deputy Director Bai to invite him, and he really did. Our Deputy Director Bai is really influential ”
Chief Chen’s scalp tingled as he looked in Zuo Hancheng’s direction. Zuo Hancheng sat down on the sofa and placed his long arm on the back of the sofa behind Anhao. There was no sign of displeasure in his eyes because of these people’s ” jokes “.
However, his action of holding Anhao in his arms surprised them. At this moment, someone whispered,””What happened? Did President Zuo really bring a female companion? Could it be that the relationship between Gu Anhao and him is more ambiguous than we imagined?”
“Stop talking. Gu Anhao is not an ordinary person. President Zuo brought his wife here today.”The person who had already known about the situation outside the door whispered.
“Madam?” Those people were also shocked.”What wife? President Zuo got married to a man with a low status?
“What is it? President Zuo is married? Then what about our Deputy Director Bai?” One of them couldn’t control himself and raised his voice.
Originally, Anhao could almost hear everyone’s whispers. Now that the person’s voice suddenly rose, everyone looked in that direction and instantly fell silent.
Zuo Hancheng, however, did not seem to be in the middle of any commotion. He simply leaned back on the sofa and smiled when everyone looked in his direction. He looked back at Anhao with a deep and serene gaze.”Can you adapt to such an occasion? If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, remember to tell me. It’s just a formality here. You can leave early.”
“No, I won’t.” “You know where I’ve been in the past.” Anhao said calmly.”
Her voice was very soft, and only Zuo Hancheng could hear her as she said,””I’m afraid that others will be even more uncomfortable than me. However, we agreed that it was only a banquet. The feeling of being the center of attention ever since we entered the door is really uncomfortable. I feel that it’s not even convenient for me to lean on the sofa for a while. I can only sit upright like this. My waist is starting to hurt again.”
Zuo Hancheng wrapped his long arm around her waist and asked in a low voice,””It hurts again?”
“I’m fine, I’m just a little stiff from sitting.”Anhao smiled again. She noticed that the gazes on them seemed to be burning her, especially Bai Weiwei’s face. She seemed calm, but her silence was not appropriate.
Those who had wanted to matchmake Bai Weiwei and Zuo Hancheng were unable to say the lines they had prepared because of Mrs. Zuo’s appearance.
Bureau Chief Chen was trying to mediate the situation.” It’s rare for President Zuo to gather with us, so let’s not talk about President Zuo’s matter. Everyone has been looking for an opportunity to have a drink with President Zuo, but we haven’t had the chance. It’s not easy for us to get together today, so relaxing is the most important!”
They had specially invited Zuo Hancheng tonight. Although Zuo Hancheng did not come with sincerity, he was already present. Who would dare to not give Zuo Hancheng face? Who would dare to hurt Mrs. Zuo here? They probably did not want to live anymore.
Zuo Hancheng glanced at Bureau Chief Chen.” It’s alright. I’m just passing by on my way to work. I’ll leave after a while. Everyone, enjoy yourselves. Don’t mind us too much.””
“How can that do? Since President Zuo was here, he had to have a few drinks with everyone.”Section Chief Yu stood up and was about to propose a toast.”Outsiders like us don’t know when President Zuo found a wife, but since we know that President Zuo got married today and we didn’t get to drink the wedding wine, we should at least make up for it today! Come, Director Gu, President Zuo, I wish you a happy marriage for a hundred years! I’ll drink first!”
Section Chief Yu was really good at adapting to the situation. The others looked at each other and then at Bai Weiwei.
Zuo Hancheng did not take the glass of wine from the Section Chief. He merely smiled and placed the glass on the crystal coffee table in front of him.”There’s no chauffeur in the car. I’m driving by myself, so I can’t drink.”
“So President Zuo drove here himself. I was wondering why I didn’t see the driver!”Section Chief Yu said happily,”Why don’t you have a few drinks with us and let your wife drive?”
Zuo Hancheng’s eyebrows twitched slightly as he glanced at Anhao who was beside him.
Anhao answered directly,” I’ve been studying architectural design overseas for the past few years. I didn’t take the time to get a driver’s license. It’s illegal to drive on the road without a license.”
“Mrs. Zuo, you must be joking. How can you not know how to drive? As Mrs. Zuo, how could she not know how to drive? Don’t tease us!” At this moment, Department Director Xue seemed to have grasped her weakness and said in a teasing manner.
