Dahai had thought it was just an ordinary employee from Wu Qiangwei's company coming to deliver some documents.

But judging by the aura the man exuded, he was certainly at least a general manager-level executive.

Confronted with his highly oppressive gaze and his interrogative tone, Dahai's mind was racing, and he immediately had an idea.

He furrowed his brows and immediately cursed, "What the fuck are you talking about?"

The man was startled by the swearing, clearly not expecting to be cursed at directly.

"I fucking came up from the underground parking lot, shit! Who the fuck do you think you are?"

As Dahai cursed, he took out his phone and dialed Wu Qiangwei's number: "Spreading rumors about Director Wu, you've got some fucking guts."

"Who the hell do you think you are to question Director Wu's private life? Wait until I tell her what happened, and then you can explain to her why you're spreading malicious rumors."

The man was dumbfounded by the swearing and became panicked when he saw Dahai making a call.

He hurriedly reached out to stop him, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, brother, it's all a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding my ass!"

Dahai shook off his arm and scoffed contemptuously, "When the fuck did it become your place to meddle in Director Wu's affairs, you're just a subordinate?"

The man, a high-ranking company executive, hadn't been scolded like this in many years.

Fortunately, there were only the two of them in the lobby of the apartment building, or else he would be utterly humiliated.

But he was in the wrong here and didn't dare to confront Dahai head-on, so he could only keep apologizing, "Brother, it really is a misunderstanding, there's no need to call Director Wu over such a trivial matter."

"What's your esteemed name, brother?"

"Why do you care what I'm called."

"Don't be angry, let me introduce myself. I am Hu Quan, General Manager at Qihang Education."

Hu Quan grabbed his hand, gave it a firm shake, and said, "Here's what we'll do. I'll wait for you here while you deliver the item to Director Wu, then we can go have a drink."

"Get as far away from me as you can."

Dahai waved him off impatiently and walked towards the elevator.

After entering the elevator, he stepped out again, pretending to make a call to Wu Qiangwei, "Hey, Director Wu, the elevator needs a card, I can't go up... No need to swipe a card from the parking lot to the first floor, right, I'm heading up now."

After hanging up, he carried the documents and climbed the stairs to the eighth floor.

Hu Quan stood in the same spot, his face ugly with anger.

He had been scolded by a driver!

And cursed at so vulgarly!

Fuck!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, but he had no way to vent, and could only swallow his teeth in his stomach.

The more Dahai thought about it, the more he felt something was off.

Although Hu Quan was a high-ranking executive in the company, he referred to Wu Qiangwei as Director Wu, showing a clear superior-subordinate relationship.

Why would he care so much about these details?

He couldn't help but speculate that this Hu Quan might have some ill intentions towards Wu Qiangwei.

As a man himself, he understood all too well what might be going through another man's mind.

When he got back home, Dahai arrived at the door, knocked on it, and only pushed it open when he heard "Come in."

He placed the documents on the bedside table and after a moment's thought, he asked, "Is that Hu Quan your company's general manager?"

Wu Qiangwei put down her phone and glanced over with a tilt, "What about it?"

Dahai hesitated for a moment, then simply warned, "Be careful with this Hu Quan."

"Hmm?"

Wu Qiangwei was surprised, as she didn't expect to hear this from him.

She did not understand what Dahai meant by 'be careful' specifically.

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing much..."

"What does 'nothing much' mean?"

Wu Qiangwei suddenly smiled, sat up from the bed, and said, "You're telling me out of the blue to be careful around him, but you don't give any reason. Dahai, are you trying to stir up trouble between me and the company executives?"

Dahai frowned, briefly at a loss for words.

He was actually conflicted about whether or not to tell her.

But now that he had started, it would seem like he was trying to sow discord if he didn't continue.

So he told her what had just happened downstairs.

He watched Wu Qiangwei the whole time, trying to gauge her reaction.

However, she showed no reaction whatsoever.

After listening, she just replied with an "Oh."

"Anything else?"

"That's all..."

"I'm going to sleep now, close the door on your way out."

Dahai felt a bit stifled, and his man's intuition told him that Hu Quan definitely had certain feelings for Wu Qiangwei.

But judging from Wu Qiangwei's reaction, she didn't seem to believe it.

This was quite frustrating.

Back in his room, Dahai thought more and felt certain that Hu Quan had something up his sleeve.

Right then, Wu Qiangwei suddenly sent him a message.

"Come here."

It was already past nine o'clock, why was she calling me over at this time?

Dahai shuffled over in his slippers, and as soon as he opened the door, he heard Wu Qiangwei say, "Hu Quan asked for your phone number."

"Did you give it to him?"

"Yes."

Just as she finished speaking, his phone rang—Hu Quan was calling.

Wu Qiangwei asked, "Hu Quan?"

"Mmm."

Dahai answered the call in front of him, "Who's this?"

"Mr. Wang, it's me, Hu Quan... beep beep."

Dahai hung up directly, Wu Qiangwei was taken aback, "Why did you hang up?"

"I'm not close with him, why would I answer?"

Besides, after what just happened, it was only normal for me to hang up.

Soon, Hu Quan sent another message.

The gist was an apology and an invitation to have a drink for a better acquaintance.

Dahai didn't respond.

After returning to his room, he threw his phone aside and went to sleep.

The next day, after breakfast, Dahai went to pick up his suit from the dry cleaners.

By noon, Wu Qiangwei changed into a hip-skirt and silk blouse, carrying a delicate handbag, "Drive."

Half an hour later, the car stopped outside a high-end restaurant.

The car had barely stopped when Dahai saw a familiar figure coming over; it was Hu Quan.

"Director Wu, you've arrived." Hu Quan was gentle and refined, well-maintained, and quite good-looking.

Such a man was actually very popular with women.

Especially since he was a high-level executive in a company and wealthy.

When Hu Quan saw Dahai, he smiled at him, "Hello, Mr. Wang."

Dahai grunted and sat inside the car without getting out.

They then headed towards the restaurant.

Dahai found a random noodle shop nearby.

"Dahai, where are you?" Zhao Xue sent him a message.

"Just dropped off your aunt at the restaurant."

"Do you have time tonight?"

"Not sure."

"Hmph, you just don't want to see me!"

"How could that be? It's really uncertain. Yesterday I made plans to meet with a roommate tonight, but he wasn't sure he could make it, told me to wait for his message later."

"Really?"

"Really."

"I'll believe you this time."

At around two in the afternoon, Wu Qiangwei called.

Dahai arrived outside the restaurant and waited a while; Wu Qiangwei and several company executives came out together.

They stood chatting outside the restaurant for a while before going their separate ways.

Before leaving, Hu Quan especially glanced in Dahai's direction, smiling and nodding at him.

As Wu Qiangwei got into the car she asked, "Do you have time tonight?"

"Tonight?"

"Something up?"

"Not sure."

"I have a dinner party tonight; if you're free, come with me."
