Zhan Dapeng had learned from Zang Xiaolian where she lived, although, like everyone else, he felt that the marriage between Xiao Yebai was rather strange.
First of all, it seed like the Xiao Family was completely unaware of it. From today, Chen Jiaming’s attitude towards Gu Nuan at the interview venue made this completely clear.
Gu Nuan, in fact, did not even know that the man called Chairman Chen was nad Chen Jiaming, let alone know what relation this Mr. Chen had with her sham husband.
However, a man who could sit in the position of managing director must have an extraordinary background; this much Gu Nuan could figure out with her toes.
The car headed towards the apartnt. The two almost did not talk at all.
When they arrived at the entrance of the neighborhood, Gu Nuan got out of the car by herself. Zhan Dapeng drove away.
Though a sworn brother, his bond with Xiao Yebai was deeper than what could be said of ordinary friends, but from the way Xiao Yebai had introduced Gu Nuan to him last ti, it was all too apparent.
This woman ant sothing very special to Xiao Yebai.
Zhan Dapeng was quite surprised by this, because of Xiao Yebai’s well-known aversion to won. Otherwise, with his status, generally anyone in the aristocratic circle would want to curry favor with him, won included.
A milieu fitting for Xiao Yebai would be one buzzing with young ladies; yet, Xiao Yebai had not been involved with a single woman over the years.
As Gu Nuan walked back to her apartnt, she had thought about this issue.
Now that she knew her husband was the son of the wealthiest man and that legendary Master Xiao. Among the many rumors about Master Xiao online, she seed to rember one.
Right!
There was talk that Master Xiao was allergic to won.
It had been revealed by an informant that a Hollywood female star, who had starred in a blockbuster, attempted to hook Master Xiao’s arm during a gala she attended. As a result, Master Xiao ended up in the hospital that night, claiming that her touch had given him hives.
Becaause of this, the actress really shot herself in the foot, originally intending to seduce the tycoon’s son, only to find that after this incident, all n started treating her as if she was carrying an infectious disease.
With such a precedent, any woman thinking of approaching Master Xiao again would have to think thrice. Aside from having to compensate Master Xiao for his dermatological treatnt, her reputation was irreparably damaged.
Perhaps the rumor was false?
Gu Nuan frowned as she thought about it.
The last ti, that man playfully teased her in the car, only to be outplayed by her.
She had even touched the man’s lips. If that rumor were true, truly that severe, shouldn’t he have been rushed directly to the ICU?
Was it true or not?
Zhan Dapeng, as a longti sworn brother to Xiao Yebai, knew the rumor was true, undeniably true, no exchanges of real and fake.
Of course, the initial diagnosis by the doctors suggested that it might have been an allergic reaction to the costic water the actress had applied that evening.
Even so, Xiao Yebai’s fear of won’s touch was genuine. Basically, any woman who touched him, even the won of the Xiao Family. Perhaps nothing would happen initially, but by the next day, Xiao Yebai would always develop a rash.
Xiao Yebai had his own personal doctor, and this doctor was certainly different from the Xiao family’s doctor, being private, and specialized in treating his mysterious skin conditions.
Thus, to say he was a dermatologist was an understatent. Xiao Yebai’s condition did not seem at all like a skin disease, completely different from typical skin disorders.
Zhan Dapeng only knew that it seed that day in the private room, Xiao Yebai had voluntarily embraced Gu Nuan’s shoulders in his presence, and then the next day, it seed that Xiao Yebai had gone to see his personal doctor.
According to Zang Xiaolian, Xiao Yebai did not go to the doctor because he was ill, but because he was not ill, that’s why he went to see the doctor.
When this story was told, all the brothers could only describe it in four words: laughable and lantable.
Zhan Dapeng could not help thinking that this woman nad Gu Nuan was really different. She was likely to cause a whirlwind in the Xiao Family. Looking at today’s interview, even a person like Chen Jiaming was looking at Gu Nuan in a new light.
Since he had not received any information from Xiao Yebai, Zhan Dapeng dared not show any performance in the interview room to prevent leaking any confidential plans about Xiao Yebai. Hence, Gu Nuan genuinely earned Chen Jiaming’s admiration based on her own performance. Ultimately, it was Chen Jiaming himself who finalized Gu Nuan’s admission.
Although Gu Nuan did not inquire about Chen Jiaming, Zhan Dapeng could not help but inwardly admire this woman. Most likely, Gu Nuan had sensed sothing. If she asked now, it might provoke their dislike. It was better to wait until they told her directly soday.
A red Ferrari pulled up at the Dihao Hotel.
Xiao Yebai spent his noon resting here, having a room of his own.
Since Gu Nuan had said she did not mind, Zhan Dapeng ca here to report to Xiao Yebai.
Upon arriving at the room, as expected, he encountered Zang Xiaolian.
Zang Xiaolian was actually Xiao Yebai’s personal secretary, responsible for all of Xiao Yebai’s daily work and life arrangents.
"Is Second Brother in there?"
Zang Xiaolian directly helped him open the door.
Inside, Xiao Yebai was lying on the guest room’s long leather sofa, with his hands behind his head and his eyes looking at the ceiling, as if he was daydreaming.
Seeing this situation, Zhan Dapeng dare not burst in directly and asked Zang Xiaolian softly, "What’s wrong with him?"
"Didn’t he see the doctor?"
"What, did he have an episode today?"
"No." Zang Xiaolian shrugged her shoulders helplessly, "The doctor said that he should not have any episodes."
Zhan Dapeng loosened his tie and coughed loudly.
Xiao Yebai turned his head, saw him, and asked, "What are you here for? Was the matter not handled well?"
"I went to be on the interview panel this morning." Zhan Dapeng said as he walked in.
"You an the recruitnt proposed by Chen Jiaming himself at the board eting, the self-directed one—" Xiao Yebai curved his lips slightly, full of criticism and selectivity while filled with disdain and scorn.
Thus, the phrase Gu Nuan said in the exam room, that the most powerful people are often those who do not speak, was indeed true.
Because candidates who had walked through the back door did not need to perform anything particularly remarkable to attract attention.
Frankly speaking, such a so-called special recruitnt for talent was nothing more than a power struggle within Changda’s internal board of directors.
Using this opportunity, soone wanted to bring the person they favored into Changda.
Zhan Dapeng then told Xiao Yebai the outco, "If it’s just about recruiting the people he wants, it definitely won’t convince the crowd."
