Chapter 1118: Best Actor Shen Is Jealous (4)
He had found out that her family had been doing charity work in silence all along. They had actually donated to five primary schools.
But the Qiao family had never used this for publicity.
They were true philanthropists.
A family like that should have never suffered such a tragic end.
But he couldn’t bring himself to say these things to her.
Because he didn’t know how to explain it to her.
He couldn’t just tell her that his family had caused the death of her parents.
He felt a dull ache in his heart as he thought of these things.
It was because of that tragedy that Qiao Lian had left Suzhou, left him.
If that whole matter had not happened, perhaps now he and Qiao Lian would have married, have a healthy and happy kid. They could have been the most envied couple in Suzhou, perhaps.
But now… she was married to someone else.
And he was just here.
No, he didn’t want to think about it anymore.
Every time he thought of the eight years he had waited in loneliness, he panicked.
He grabbed Qiao Lian’s wrist tightly, as though he was afraid that she would suddenly leave. And then it would be for another eight years.
After these thoughts had flashed through his mind, his expression became more determined.
Even the heavens couldn’t bear to see it continue, so they had given him a chance for a new start. He had to treasure the opportunity.
So he took her lightly by her shoulders and said to her with certainty, “No, your parents were good people. But in any company, there are always people who cause trouble. What happened at that time, no one can say for sure. Alright, let’s not talk about these things. Let’s go in and start work.”
Qiao Lian nodded, as though she hadn’t fully understood.
But as she cast her gaze down, mockery flashed across her eyes.
At the same time she looked away, Lu Nanze sighed deeply in relief.
As they entered the office, the staff around them stood up immediately and said in a respectful tone, “Mr. Lu, you’re here!”
Lu Nanze nodded. Pointing at the staff, he said to Qiao Lian, “Qiao Lian, I’m your boss and from now on, this is your office.”
Qiao Lian’s eyes lit up at once and asked, “So can I feel free to walk around?”
He nodded and replied, “Sure.”
She looked around happily and said, “You are really clever to be managing such a big office by yourself. But can everyone in the office just walk around as they please?”
When he heard this, he led her to the reception desk.
The receptionist immediately handed him a card.
He held the card out to her and said, “This is the card to my penthouse and you have access to all departments of the office. I have to go to a meeting later on. I’ll get someone to show you around and take you to the Entertainment Department, where the female casters are.”
Qiao Lian nodded immediately.
Lu Nanze reached out to touch her head.
Qiao Lian took a step back and looked at him guardedly.
His hand froze in mid-air for a moment before he drew his arm back. He looked at the head of Human Resources, who had just rushed over after being informed, and said, “Show Ms. Qiao around. After that, take her to the casters and introduce her.”
The head of Human Resources was a lady in her 40s. She was extremely capable and experienced.
Analyzing Lu Nanze’s body language, she knew at once that Ms. Qiao wasn’t an ordinary staff member. At once, she said respectfully, “Yes, Mr. Lu. I will ensure Ms. Qiao feels very at home.”
