Chapter 858  : You Should Get Lost, Too (1)

Lu Bancheng returned to his senses and looked at his friend without speaking. He turned off the tap, took a paper towel, and slowly wiped his hands dry. Then, they left the restroom together.

The tables at Jinyuan were separated by green plants. If Lu Bancheng hadn’t bumped into Xu Wennuan at the restroom, he wouldn’t have realized that her table was not far away from his with a perfect view.She only drank two mouthfuls before placing the bottle on the table and turning around to cough. And the more she coughed, the more her frail body trembled. After her coughing fit, she gritted her teeth and picked up the bottle again.

“Boss Lu…” the female secretary awkwardly said again after being ignored by Lu Bancheng, who finally responded by sweeping his gaze over the female secretary and cocking his head so that it was near the head of the man he had just gone to the restroom with. He raised his finger and pointed at the man sitting beside Xu Wennuan. “Do you know who he is?” he asked.

His friend looked over at where he was pointing. After a few seconds, he replied, “He looks familiar. I believe he is the director at Huayu.”

Lu Bancheng hummed without any change in his expression. After a moment, he whispered something into his friend’s ear again, causing him to turn his head and gaze at Lu Bancheng rather doubtfully. “No way! You’re considering a small company like Huayu?”

Lu Bancheng hummed again without saying anything else. “Hold on for a moment.” His friend then rose and headed toward Xu Wennuan’s table.

…

Xu Wennuan had finished a third of the bottle when a man came walking over. He stopped beside the table, lowered his head, and whispered into Director Li’s ear. Director Li stood up with a surprised look on his face and followed the man without saying anything to Xu Wennuan.
