Chapter 1291: Chapter 1290: A Woman's Heart is the Most Venomous Chapter 1291: Chapter 1290: A Woman's Heart is the Most Venomous “Care? If you cared, why didn't you take me to the anniversary celebration? Isn't it just because you were afraid I'd embarrass you?” Bai Lan said, starting to feel a bit sorry for herself towards the end.
Su Qian thought about it, and it seemed true enough. Wasn't it because of this that she had the chance to dance with President Zhou?
But she was puzzled. If it wasn't because he cared that his wife would overthink things, why would President Zhou replace her?
During the time she had been the spokesperson, their company's image had improved in all respects.
“It does make sense, and since you look so plain, I don't think President Zhou would be into you.” Su Qian looked at Bai Lan, seeming to struggle to convince herself.
Because Bai Lan was the kind of person who didn't strike you as stunning at first glance but gradually grew on you, becoming someone you find very comfortable to look at after a while.
“Right, you're thinking correctly. I married him because I had no other choice. Actually, our relationship is rather average; I suppose we're just cohabiting, not even worthy of mentioning 'feelings',” Bai Lan said with self-mockery, continuously lowering Su Qian's guard.
Su Qian suddenly felt distressed. Could she have really gotten it all wrong?
What was the point of it all then?
“Call him then.” Su Qian was still somewhat skeptical.
“He won't answer my calls.” Bai Lan knew that at this moment, Zhou Shengting was still on a plane. How could he possibly answer the phone?
Seeing Su Qian's uncertain expression, Bai Lan did not hesitate to dial Zhou Shengting's number.
But the call couldn't get through. “Guess I've been added to the blocklist, huh?” Bai Lan said, sounding a bit disheartened in the end.
Now, Su Qian was somewhat convinced.
The two fearsome men glanced at Su Qian and then said, “Susie, what do we do now?”
They were underlings of Mr. Wang, there to assist Su Qian.
“Take her to Mr. Wang's hotel for now and see what happens. If she tries any tricks, she'd better not blame me for not being polite,” Su Qian said menacingly.
Truly, a woman's heart can be the most venomous.
Hearing Su Qian's words and seeing her malicious demeanor, Bai Lan was truly taken aback. She had never imagined her to be this kind of person. Normally Su Qian appeared graceful and refined; it was unexpected that when she spoke harshly, she sounded as bossy and domineering as a gang leader.
Bai Lan's heart began to quiver. Were it only her, she wouldn't have many worries, but there was a child in her womb. If anything happened to the child, she would never forgive herself.
Hence, she stopped talking and sat quietly, trying her best to appear calm.
She just heard something about Mr. Wang's hotel?
If it was a hotel, that would be better. At least it wasn't in the deep mountains or forests, and she could rest properly.
Su Qian probably kidnapped her as a threat to Zhou Shengting. Causing loss of life was something she probably didn't have the guts to do.
Now, all she could do was wait and see, hoping the driver would notice her absence early and figure something out.
Only, Zhou Shengting had just gone on a business trip. If he learned she was in trouble, would he come back? That would delay his work.
However, she knew that Zhou Shengting always prioritized her, so now she was actually feeling rather distressed about it.
Ah, who would have thought that being a spokesperson would lead to so many problems? Truly frustrating.
The two men in the car obeyed Su Qian completely, and one of them drove towards the outskirts.
Bai Lan was puzzled. Wasn't the hotel in the city center? Why were they heading to the outskirts?
