In the office, Tian Yuan quietly observed Ning Chengxu's face and carefully reported Gu Wanwan's return.
Ning Chengxu's hand holding the cigarette stopped for a moment, then he raised his eyes, raised his lips slightly, and blew out a beautiful smoke ring.
"When did you come back?"
"Just now, she entered the door and started handing out gifts to everyone, saying they were gifts she brought back from this trip."
Ning Chengxu slowly put out the cigarette and said nothing.
Tahara looked at his slow movements and felt as if he was being annoyed by himself.
Whenever Mr. Xu is in this state, it proves that he is angry in his heart. He claims to know Ning Chengxu better, but he cannot really understand his thoughts.
After a long time, Ning Chengxu stood up leisurely and patted away some soot that was accidentally stained on his body.
"Go down and have a look."
With that said, he walked straight forward.
Behind him, Tahara hurriedly followed.
Ning Chengxu left in a hurry.
In the business department, Gu Wanwan came back with some local specialties from the mountains to share with everyone. Everyone was also wondering why Gu Wanwan disappeared for several days.
But Gu Wanwan's answer was: "The scenery in the mountains is so beautiful. I wanted to stay a few more days without noticing, so I came back late. I also brought souvenirs to everyone, so don't be polite."
Her smile was sweet and bright, and seemed to have an indescribable contagiousness.
When everyone saw this, they thought it was normal for her to be innocent and playful, so they didn't think much about it and happily accepted the gifts she brought back.
Collecting things is the best way to win people's hearts.
But that was not Gu Wanwan's purpose. She wanted Ning Chengxu to see her beauty and generosity.
She was racking her brains to show her best side in front of Ning Chengxu.
Even if one day her identity is exposed, or she is no longer wanted as a substitute, at least she can still leave some good impression.
Originally, Gu Wanwan actually wanted to stay until the end of the mission. Completing the mission was a threshold. As long as she crossed it, she could escape successfully.
It was just an escort of smuggled weapons. Gu Wanwan was brought out by Master Hei, so it was not a difficult task for her.
Even if you have never done it yourself, you have seen it a lot, and you naturally know the rules and ways of doing it.
But the problem is that this time she did not do it voluntarily, and the route of which waterway this batch of goods took is basically vague.
If she hadn't asked, she might not even have told the truth about the destination. Gradually, Gu Wanwan realized that this escort was probably a trap.
Gu Wanwan wanted to get some information from her godfather, so she pretended to be obedient and well-behaved.
However, this old guy is very strict with his words and can even guess his own purpose very quickly.
Gu Wanwan did not dare to deal with this old guy, so she wanted to start from other places, but unexpectedly heard that this time the escorted goods had to go through the Ning family's port.
Sure enough, there is a trap.
This old guy has been working for so many years, so he naturally knows how to avoid risks, but the goods were shipped out at the Ning family's port. If he was discovered, Ning Chengxu would have to bear the blame.
It would have been fine if it had been anyone else, but this was Ning Chengxu.
Although Gu Wanwan was just a stand-in in his eyes, he couldn't just sit idly by.
Therefore, Gu Wanwan said that she still had something to do with the company, so she took the time to come back.
Ning Chengxu quickly went downstairs and saw Gu Wanwan laughing happily with her colleagues, as if nothing was wrong, and an unknown fire burned in her heart.
Gu Wanwan turned around and saw Ning Chengxu, who looked unhappy.
