Chapter 103: Late
Suddenly, Qiao Xicheng's mobile phone rang, he looked down at the screen, his face was a little serious, he turned around and walked to the window on the side and answered the phone.
"Well, okay, I see. ”
Short and serious words, he put down his phone, he already had his own plan in his heart, now that he needs to go out to deal with work, how can he let the two women stay alone in the hotel.
Qiao Xicheng no longer hesitated, picked up the blazer that was put aside, and walked straight out.
walked to Gu Yidan's door, knocked on the door softly, and it didn't take long for someone to open the door.
Gu Yidan poked his little head out of the crack in the door, and when he saw that it was Qiao Xicheng, his face was already overflowing with joy.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm going out to take care of things, you come with me. ”
Before Gu Yidan could react, a powerful big hand grabbed her wrist and pulled her outside.
Although Gu Yidan had some doubts in her heart, she didn't think much about it, and as Qiao Xicheng went out of the hotel to pick up the car, she asked only when she got in the car.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Don't worry, do you still want to be with Fu Anran?
As he spoke, he turned his head and raised his eyebrows at her, and his meaningful tone suddenly made Gu Yidan blush involuntarily.
Gu Yidan naturally knew in her heart that Qiao Xicheng originally took her out to deal with official business, but she didn't expect Fu Anran to come with her, making trouble everywhere, which was really annoying.
Gu Yidan turned his head and saw Qiao Xicheng looking at his watch frequently, so he hurriedly asked.
"What's wrong?
"Well, the assistant called just now, saying that there is an important meeting in half an hour to discuss the handling of the work, and it seems that it is going to speed up. ”
The car was driving on the highway at a very fast speed, and Gu Yidan faintly felt a little dizzy and uncomfortable.
Qiao Xicheng, who was on the side, quickly noticed the strangeness of the person next to him, slowly slowed down, and asked with some concern.
"Edan, what's wrong with you?
Hearing the man's inquiry, Gu Yidan waved his hand and replied softly.
"A little dizzy, probably didn't have a good rest last night, nothing. ”
She is a little motion sick, but now that her work is urgent, she can't delay Qiao Xicheng's work because of herself.
"Bear with me a little longer, and you can rest again when you get to the place. ”
The man who has always been calm was already a little anxious at this moment, but who knew that the car was moving forward, but there were several long lines in front of him, blocking the road.
At this time, is there still a traffic jam?
Qiao Xicheng looked down at his watch, the sword eyebrows were already screwed together, it didn't matter if he was late for the meeting, he was more worried about Gu Yidan on the side.
The car was forced to stop, and the road in front of it was blocked by cars, so it seemed that something had happened.
"There was an accident in front, two cars were rear-ended, and now the police have cordoned off the scene. ”
Qiao Xicheng rolled down the car window, and when he heard someone say this, he pursed his thin lips, turned his head to look at the uncomfortable appearance of the woman on the side, and his heart was even more anxious.
Now I don't know when I want to be blocked, Gu Yidan is also anxious on the side.
"What should I do? Didn't I say that meetings were important?"
"It seems that there is only another path left. ”
Qiao Xicheng wrinkled his eyebrows, and it took a long time to speak.
He has never been accustomed to being passive, and it is his consistent style to grasp the initiative.
Soon, he turned the steering wheel and the front of the car turned to the other side.
Gu Yidan looked at the direction of the car and was a little surprised.
This direction goes the other way, and if you go this way, you will be farther away from your destination.
"Hee-sung... Are you really going down this path?"
Qiao Xicheng was naturally confident, and he knew in his heart that although he took this road a little farther, compared with being blocked on another road, he still knew that he would not be able to arrive at the meeting site and be late.
"Why? Don't you believe me?"
The corners of Qiao Xicheng's lips hooked, and his tone was a little frivolous.
"When did I, Qiao Xicheng, do it wrong?"
Hearing that Gu Yidan on the side did not answer, he continued, and this tough tone involuntarily amused Gu Yidan.
Although I took the small road, it was not as congested as the road just now, but after all, I had made so many detours, and it was inevitable to be late.
It didn't take long for the assistant to call again, urging Qiao Xicheng to arrive as soon as possible, but he didn't pay much attention to it, but Gu Yidan on the side was a little anxious.
An hour later, Qiao Xicheng and Gu Yidan arrived at their destination, the car stopped at the door of the building, and there was a man at the door who was very anxious, and as soon as he saw Qiao Xicheng, he immediately greeted him.
"Oh, my Mr. Qiao, why is it only here now, everyone is waiting for you!"
Although he said this, his tone was quite respectful, Qiao Xicheng glanced at him lightly, didn't say anything, and pulled Gu Yidan to the elevator entrance.
As he walked, he coldly threw out a sentence.
"Isn't it now? The meeting is not over yet. ”
His tone was very casual, but the face of the person on the side had been twisted into a bitter gourd face.
The elevator went directly to the twenty-second floor, and when they got out of the elevator, the two followed the person to the front of the conference room, and only then did Qiao Xicheng let go of Gu Yidan's hand.
He pushed open the door of the conference room, and sure enough, the eyes of a room of people were all looking this way, and all eyes were suddenly focused on the two of them.
It is not difficult to see that among the people present, several people have poor faces and gloomy faces.
"Mr. Qiao, is it too much to be more than an hour late, let a room of people wait for you here?"
The person who spoke was obviously a major shareholder, his face was gloomy and serious, and as soon as his voice fell, the atmosphere immediately became heavy.
"yes, how can you be so careless about this project now, and you're more than an hour late?"
"Yes, we have a limited amount of time!"
"That's too much, isn't it?"
“……”
Many people also responded, and suddenly Qiao Xicheng became the target of everyone's verbal attacks.
Gu Yidan was on the side, she was already nervous, she turned her head to look at Qiao Xicheng on the side, for fear that he would be angry.
But who knew that the expression on Qiao Xicheng's face did not change much, he walked to the conference table, glanced at everyone, and then slowly spoke.
"Am I the only one who is late today?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at each other, a little ununderstanding the meaning of his words.
"When you say this, I suddenly wonder how many people are waiting for me here early today without being late for a minute?"
For such a large-scale meeting, how could no one be late, he Qiao Xicheng naturally understood this in his heart, and everyone blamed him, but it was just because he was a little late.
