Chapter 220 Meeting Him at a Special Bar
Gu Zhiyao didn't want to meet him so soon, and she didn't want him to know her identity in this kind of setting!
So she made a phone call to the secretary of Yuncheng.
These arrangements were originally Yuncheng's business and there was nothing wrong with them. Similar situations had occurred before. However, Gu Zhiyao told the mayor of Yuncheng that this project cooperation was a fair and just investment promotion, and she was worried that inviting a certain company to the dinner in advance would cause negative public opinion.
"Mayor Gu, rest assured, we will not let tonight's banquet be leaked," Secretary Yuncheng assured him.
“There are no secrets that stay hidden forever. I don’t know if you’re trying to do someone a favor or what, but I don’t want this arrangement,” Gu Zhiyao insisted.
When Secretary Yuncheng heard her say that, he remembered her reputation in Canada and didn't dare to provoke her. He quickly agreed, "Okay, I understand. Then I'll go along with what the mayor says."
"Hmm. This is troublesome!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhiyao breathed a sigh of relief.
With some time to spare before the banquet, she decided to take a nap. She didn't get up until 6 a.m. and arrived at a banquet hall in the hotel at exactly 7 a.m.
The secretary, mayor, deputy mayor, director of the investment promotion bureau, director of the foreign affairs office, and other important figures from Yuncheng attended the banquet. Everyone had already read the introductions of the visitors, but when they saw Gu Zhiyao in person, they were all stunned.
I never imagined that this famous Chinese-American female mayor would be so young and beautiful!
They saw photos on the government website, which were relatively accurate, but still somewhat different from the real people.
The director of the investment promotion bureau is named Zhong Yi. With his outstanding appearance and somewhat privileged family background, he is a womanizer and has often used his position to have ambiguous relationships with female executives and bosses. Now, when he sees Gu Zhiyao, he is immediately eager to make a move and his eyes are wide open.
A deputy mayor who was close to him whispered a reminder, "Come on, this is not the same as the women you usually see. You'd better keep your eyes closed. If you offend her, even I can't help you!"
"Ha, look at her charming appearance, she was born for us men. Do you really think that a woman, especially a Chinese woman, could climb to the position of deputy mayor in Canada solely through her own abilities? No way! She probably understands the rules of the game better than I do," Zhong Yi said dismissively.
The deputy mayor looked at his confident demeanor, shook his head, and couldn't be bothered to pay him any more attention.
What followed was the usual procedure; the whole atmosphere was polite, courteous, and harmonious.
When they were almost full, Gu Zhiyao went to the restroom, and Zhong Yi quickly followed her out. He said to her, "Mayor Gu, I heard that you used to work in Yuncheng. It has changed a lot. It's still early, would you like to take a walk around? I'd be happy to accompany you."
Although Gu Zhiyao was well protected by Xiao Lin during those years abroad, she was still in that circle and knew a bit about the phenomena and rules. She could tell what this man was thinking at a glance.
When the mayor introduced him to everyone, I think he was from the China Merchants Group? His name was Zhong Yi.
He was good-looking and eloquent, but Gu Zhiyao felt no ripples in her heart.
Zhong Yi noticed the disdain and coldness that unconsciously flickered in Gu Zhiyao's eyes. His possessiveness was fully aroused, and his determination to win Gu Zhiyao became even stronger. So he took two steps closer to Gu Zhiyao and continued meaningfully, "Well, Mayor Gu, will you do me the honor? Don't worry, I'm divorced, no one will cause you any trouble."
"Thank you for your kindness, Director Zhong, but I'm a bit tired from the long flight and would like to go back to the hotel to rest as soon as possible. I'll definitely take the opportunity to explore Yuncheng with Director Zhong next time and see its new look." Gu Zhiyao didn't want to offend him, so she said this first, then gave Zhong Yi a smile and went back to the banquet hall.
As Zhong Yi watched her graceful figure go, his heart began to itch even more.
He had read her profile; she was married, but he didn't mind. On the contrary, he felt that such a mature woman would be even more captivating in bed. And looking at Gu Zhiyao's figure and the allure in her every move, he was completely aroused.
No, he absolutely has to get her!
Haha, so what if she has a husband? She climbed to this position, and her husband must have been cuckolded countless times. Adding one more won't matter!
But how can he win her over?
Zhong Yi kept thinking and gradually came up with an idea.
After the reception banquet ended, everyone agreed on the schedule and arrangements for tomorrow and then dispersed.
Gu Zhiyao returned to her dormitory room and suddenly received a phone call.
Xiao Lin secretly sent someone to meet with her here and help her investigate the situation, especially regarding He Yi. This person happened to come and report back to her.
Lin Chao said that He Yi was in a bar at the moment, and that bar was not an ordinary bar, but one where special transactions often took place.
He actually went to that kind of place.
I remember he wasn't someone who used to like going to bars.
At most, I'd go to a club with a few friends, book a room, have a few drinks, and chat.
Of course, she actually knew very little about him. Even these details were only told to her by him when he was in a good mood, which was the best period of their relationship. Of course, he was only pretending to be nice to her in order to coax her into having a child with him and Zheng Yuanxi. As for whether he had any other hobbies, he didn't say, and she didn't know either.
After a moment of contemplation, Gu Zhiyao explained some things to Lin Chao, ended the call, opened the wardrobe where her clothes were kept in the hotel, took out a red dress, changed into it, and applied the same color lipstick.
Immediately, a stunningly beautiful, ethereal, and alluring woman appeared in the mirror.
Gu Zhiyao first looked at herself in the mirror, then picked up a butterfly-shaped mask, put it in her bag, and left the hotel.
She arrived at the bar in less than twenty minutes.
The scene inside was even more heated and ambiguous than Lin Chao had described.
The diverse group of young men and women here exudes a peculiar atmosphere, clearly indicating that they are here for that kind of purpose.
He Yi, don't you love Zheng Yuanxi very much?
What brings you here?
Zheng Yuanxi, do you know her?
The thought flashed through Gu Zhiyao's mind, but she quickly dismissed it. Why should she care about these things? Wouldn't it be better for He Yi to go out and find women? This must be the heaviest blow to Zheng Yuanxi.
Taking a deep breath, Gu Zhiyao took out a butterfly-shaped mask and put it on, immediately covering half of her face, so no one could recognize who she was.
She walked along the bar for a while, attracting the attention of countless men along the way. Some of the bolder ones even went up to her and made invitations, which Gu Zhiyao politely declined. Finally, she found that familiar figure.
From this angle, she could only see his profile!
But she recognized him at a glance.
Women kept approaching him to flirt and chat, some even boldly making intimate advances, but he chased them all away.
