Chapter 98: The Verge (Asking for Votes)

A round of red dawn rises in the jungle of high-rise buildings in the bustling city, and the bright morning light gently slips into the chest of the city like time leaking through the fingers, stopping at everything it can touch.

Wang Xiao walked down from the bus in high spirits, greeted the morning light with his head held high, and walked towards the company.

At the entrance of the business building, a well-dressed woman in her fifties, but with a pale face and a very haggard look, wandered a little anxiously, and every time someone passed by, she would hurry up to meet her and ask a few questions.

Wang Xiao didn't pay attention at first, until he walked to the entrance and saw the woman walking towards him, so he slowed down.

"Hello, I want to inquire, do you see this girl, is it from your company?"

The woman said, stretching out her hand to show Wang Xiao the business card in her hand.

"Zhao Juan?" Wang Xiao said in surprise.

He was not mistaken, whether it was the company address or the contact number on it, he could identify that the Zhao Juan on this business card was the Zhao Juan in the same group as him.

"You know her?" The woman asked, both excited and a little nervous.

Seeing this, Wang Xiao felt that there should be something between this woman and Zhao Juan, so he didn't dare to rashly give her a positive answer.

"Are you looking for her?" Wang Xiao asked.

"Oh...... It's nothing, it's just ...... I wanted to talk to her about my insurance, but I couldn't get through to her, so I came to her and wanted to talk to her face-to-face. The woman said hesitantly, her eyes flickering.

Wang Xiao hesitated for a moment and said, "You wait for her here, you should be able to see her, it is estimated that she is almost there." ”

He originally wanted to take this woman to the company to wait for Zhao Juan, but for a while he couldn't figure out what this woman had to do with Zhao Juan, and his relationship with Zhao Juan was complicated, so in order not to cause so much trouble, he still decided to let this woman wait for Zhao Juan here.

"But...... But I don't know what she looks like! This business card was given to me by someone else, and my friend had bought insurance from her, so she introduced me to her. The woman explained, with some embarrassment.

"Okay, come with me!" Wang Xiao hesitated for a moment, and then said to her.

"Thank you, thank you." The woman thanked her gratefully, and hurriedly followed Wang Xiao towards the elevator.

In the office area of Wanchun's department, plus Wang Xiao, only seven or eight people arrived early, but people had already begun to walk in one after another.

"That's Zhao Juan's location, and the girl sitting there later is Zhao Juan." Wang Xiao put the bag on his seat, pointed to Zhao Juan's seat and said to the woman.

"Thank you." The woman said politely, with too much nervousness and uneasiness in the smile on her face.

She did not sit down, but stood on the corridor like a little daughter-in-law who had just arrived at her mother-in-law's house, looking nervous and restrained.

At this time, Lu Miaosha and Su Hui arrived almost at the same time.

"Brother, your almond milk." Lu Miaosha said, and gently placed a jar of almond juice in front of Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao touched it with his hand, and it was still hot, looked up at Lu Miaosha, and said, "There are still hot almond syrup sellers in the morning?" ”

"No, I boiled two cans myself in the morning, I drank one on the way and left one for you." Lu Miaosha smiled sweetly and said to Wang Xiao.

"Miaosha, why did you change your brother's taste today?" Su Hui teased with a smile.

"Some people can think of changing flowers a day, and I can also think of changing a drink a day, which is more in line with the scientific concept of balanced nutrition!" Lu Miaosha playfully explained.

The woman who was led in by Wang Xiao had been looking at her since Lu Miaosha came in, and it wasn't until Su Hui called out the name "Miaosha" that she returned to normal, a little lost and a little nervous.

Su Hui found that there was a strange woman standing beside her, so she asked vigilantly, "Are you new here?" ”

"No, no, no, I'm here to find someone." The woman saw that Su Hui didn't look like an ordinary employee, and thought it was a certain leader in this company, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly explained.

"Looking for someone? Who to look for? Su Hui asked curiously.

"Zhao Juan." Wang Xiao saw that the woman did not say her name for a long time, so he spoke.

When the woman heard this, she smiled awkwardly and uneasily, not daring to look directly at Su Hui.

"Zhao Juan?" Lu Miaosha couldn't help frowning and looked at this woman carefully.

"What are you looking for Zhao Juan?" Su Hui saw that this woman was a little strange, so she asked.

"I'm ...... Talk to her about insurance. The woman said apprehensively.

"You're Zhao Juan's mother, right? Your nose and eyes are very similar to Zhao Juan. Lu Miaosha looked at it for a long time and asked suspiciously.

"Huh? No...... No, I don't know her. When the woman heard Lu Miaosha say the word mother, she immediately panicked and hurriedly excused herself.

As soon as Lu Miaosha said this, coupled with this woman's somewhat strange demeanor, and her justification for being anxious to clear up her relationship with Zhao Juan, Wang Xiao carefully looked at this strange woman of unknown origin and found that she really looked a little similar to Zhao Juan.

"As soon as Miao Sha said this, I realized that the two of them were really a little similar." Su Hui also said.

Seeing this, the woman panicked and hurried, and did not dare to raise her head, and when she saw that she could not explain clearly, she wanted to flee from this place, but she lowered her head and walked too quickly, and happened to collide with a person who had just come over.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The woman didn't dare to look up to see who she had bumped into, and apologized repeatedly, and her feet did not stop.

"Aren't you looking for Zhao Juan? She is Zhao Juan. Su Hui shouted at the woman.

It was Zhao Juan herself who collided with that woman.

When the woman heard this, she froze, as if by magic, and became a concrete sculpture, which remained motionless.

Zhao Juan was also stunned, until she heard Su Hui say that the old woman was looking for her, so she turned around and took a closer look.

It was this glance that made her look change drastically immediately, and scenes that made her unbearable to look back appeared in her mind, and words that made her heartbroken echo in her ears.

She clenched her fists, and her long nails had sunk deep into the flesh of her palms, but she couldn't feel the pain in her hands, because for the heartache that was suddenly uncovered at this moment, the pain on the flesh was like a bead of sweat falling into the ocean compared to the heartache that she was surging up at the moment, and she couldn't feel its existence at all.

Her lips were tense, the corners of her mouth twitched wildly uncontrollably, her eyes were filled with tears, but they were burning with terrifying rage, and her nasal cavity was no longer able to breathe normally under the intense stimulation.

Although her whole body was fixed there like a clay sculpture, her body was shaking involuntarily.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, especially between Zhao Juan and the woman, as if the air had solidified, and the two of them were temporarily trapped in it.

Zhao Juan is like a mad beast trapped inside, ready to attack, wanting to set off a bloody storm of brutality; The woman was like a helpless lamb, knowing that she was facing unimaginable danger, but she still inexplicably hesitated to flee, and stayed behind to beg for forgiveness from the beast.

The crisis between these two women is like an arrow in the string, and it is about to erupt.

Wang Xiao saw the strange expressions of the two of them change drastically, and he was even more curious about what the relationship between them was and what kind of story happened.
