"Mr. Zhao, you are too polite. I just want to borrow a CD. It's not a big deal. You don't need to treat me to a meal."

Guan Juer left the restaurant without waiting for Zhao Qiping's reaction. Zhao Qiping immediately ran over and said, "Miss Guan, I thought we were friends. It should be normal for us to have a meal together."

Guan Juer was too embarrassed to say, "I feel like you're interested in me," so she lied, "I remembered I still have work to do, so we can't have dinner together."

How could Zhao Qiping not see Guan Juer's intention to refuse? However, he had never met someone who moved him so much. In addition, his appearance and knowledge had always been very successful, so Zhao Qiping had never been rejected. Being rejected by Guan Juer was a new experience for him, and it aroused his competitive spirit. "In this case, I can't force you. Is it okay for me to just take you home? You can't even refuse me, right?"

Guan Juer didn't feel comfortable refusing, so she just nodded in agreement.

Zhao Qiping sent Guan Juer to Ode to Joy. When they said goodbye, they happened to meet Qu Xiaoxiao who had just returned. Qu Xiaoxiao had just parked the car when she saw Guan Juer standing with a stunningly handsome guy. She immediately put down her hand that was about to open the car door and took out her phone to take a few photos of the two of them. "Can't you see that Guan Juer is quite amazing? She's not satisfied with having Tan the Crocodile and is trying to hook up with other handsome guys. Hehehe, now I've caught her, so don't blame me for being rude."

Seeing Guan Juer going upstairs, Zhao Qiping was about to get back in the car. Qu Xiaoxiao quickly got out of the car to stop Zhao Qiping, "Hey, hey, hey, wait a minute."

Zhao Qiping saw a short-haired woman running in front of his car and quickly stopped the car. "Miss, what can I do for you?"

Qu Xiaoxiao looked at Zhao Qiping with interest, then walked closer and asked, "What is your relationship with that woman just now?"

Zhao Qiping turned to her unhappily, "What does our situation have to do with you, young lady?"

Qu Xiaoxiao pouted. How could such a handsome guy be so blind that he couldn't see through the true nature of those gold diggers? "Why is it okay? Do you know who Guan Juer is? She is the woman of financial tycoon Tan Zongming. Now she is dating you without telling Tan. Once Tan finds out, you two will be finished. If I were you, I would stay away from gold diggers like this. Gold diggers are the public enemy of mankind. I will kill one if I see one."

Zhao Qiping: "This lady..."

Qu Xiaoxiao interrupted him, "My last name is Qu, Qu Xiaoxiao."

Zhao Qiping: "Miss Qu's words are a bit too harsh. I don't know you. May I ask what right you have to speak so arrogantly in front of me?"

Qu Xiaoxiao saw that she couldn't win the argument against Zhao Qiping, "Humph! One day you will regret it."

Qu Xiaoxiao returned home angrily and planned to complain to her friends. She picked up her phone and suddenly thought of the photos she had just taken, and a good idea came to her mind.

At Shengxuan Group, Tan Zongming was handling official business. "Knock, knock, knock!"

"Come in!"

Tan Zongming looked up and saw his assistant, Special Assistant Wang, walking in with a courier bag on his face. "What's wrong? Is there an important document? Why are you sending it in a courier bag?"

The assistant thought about it and decided to talk first and give the photos later. "Mr. Tan, I received a special package today. It didn't contain any documents, but some photos."

Tan Zongming stole a glance at him and said, "What photos? Don't be so hesitant. Just say what you want to say."

As Tan Zongming's assistant, Wang knew his feelings for Guan Juer, so after receiving the photo today, Wang found a tight-lipped professional to look at the photo. He took a deep breath and handed the photo to Tan Zongming, "This is a photo of Miss Guan, but..."

When Tan Zongming heard that it was about Guan Juer, he immediately looked up and asked, "Photos of Juer?" Without waiting for Assistant Wang to finish, he took the express bag, and saw photos of Guan Juer and a young and handsome man in it. From the photos, it seemed that the two were quite close, and in one of the photos, they even kissed each other.

Tan Zongming's first feeling was disbelief. He understood Guan Juer, and knew her outlook on love. If Guan Juer didn't like him, she would never give him a chance. During the time they had been together, Tan Zongming also knew clearly that there was no other man around Guan Juer.

This should be someone Guan Juer has just met recently. Guan Juer would never let him get close to her, so how could they be so close?

Tan Zongming frowned and looked at each photo carefully. Special Assistant Wang stood in front of the desk, not daring to move. He just thought about the results he had just found and felt that he should report to President Tan.

"Ahem, Mr. Tan, I just asked a tight-lipped person to check it out. He said that these photos were probably taken with a borrowed camera. In fact, the two people were very far apart."

Tan Zongming raised his eyes and glanced at him. "How could I not know that it was a borrowed shot? But Ju'er is usually kind to others and never causes trouble. How could someone take a picture of her? And not many people know that I am pursuing her."

Tan Zongming put the photo away and looked at Special Assistant Wang, "Go check the origin of this photo and see who took it."

Special Assistant Wang: "Okay, Mr. Tan."

After Assistant Wang left, Tan Zongming could no longer sit still when he thought about the fact that there was someone with an unknown purpose surrounding Guan Juer. He picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Juer..."

Guan Juer rarely received calls from Tan Zongming during work hours, and was a little surprised, "Old Tan, why are you calling me at this time?"

Tan Zongming didn't want Guan Juer to worry, but he also felt that if he didn't let her know, Guan Juer would be off guard. "Are you free tonight?"

Guan Juer thought of the call she received this morning and replied embarrassedly, "We have a class reunion tonight, so..."

Tan Zongming said tactfully, "Then I'll pick you up, okay?"

Guan Juer hesitated, "But I'm not sure when it will end, and you have work to do, so why don't we just forget it?"

Tan Zongming: "No matter how busy I am, I will always find time to pick you up. According to your schedule, it will never be more than 10:30."

Guan Juer thought about it and nodded, "Okay then."

After getting off work, Guan Juer quickly sorted out her work for the day and headed to the party venue. She didn't go home to change clothes, but went straight in wearing her work clothes. She thought it was a place for classmates to get together and chat, but when she went in, she found that it was simply a stage for everyone to show off.
