Chapter 182 Too many words
However, Guan Li regretted what he said as soon as he finished speaking. He thought that Xie Shiqian had just said last time that if there was anything, they could talk about it after Xie Heng came back. Now that he asked this question, it seemed that he was too concerned about Miss Jiang.
And sure enough, after a moment of silence, a man's warm and calm voice came from behind.
"Do you think there's a reason to be watched?"
Guan Li's breathing was slightly stiff, and he hurriedly explained in a low voice: "Miss Jiang got into the car of Pan Mingqi, the second son of Pan Xiuwen, who was raised with great difficulty after his eldest son died young."
"Pan Xiuwen himself knows what to do and what not to do, otherwise he wouldn't have the ability to maintain the friendship between the previous generation and the Ji family until now when Ji Xingjing is in power. It's a pity that he can't bear to discipline his son."
"Pan Mingqi is not an ordinary dandy. He has not touched upon anything that the Pan family could not settle even with all their connections with the Ji family. He has been involved in many other evil ways, but in the end, he was able to settle them with money."
"From the look on Miss Jiang's face, I think she is not very familiar with the other party. She probably doesn't know what it means to get on this train."
At this point, he lowered his voice: "After all, she is the second young master..."
The words were not finished, but the meaning was self-evident.
If Guan Li had not realized before that Jiang Wan was likely to be closely related to Xie Heng, and only regarded her as Shao Ting's secretary, she would not have had the leisure to ask Xie Shiqian whether he wanted someone to keep an eye on him.
Knowing and not knowing are two different things, and they have to be treated with two different attitudes.
But no matter how he explained, Guan Li still felt more and more that he should not have asked that question.
This Miss Jiang is obviously not a simple person. Getting into Pan Mingqi's car was her own choice and had nothing to do with them.
After all, Jiang Wan is not just Shao Ting's secretary, it is obvious that she has a close relationship with Jiang Xu, otherwise she would not have attended Xu Mingshan's birthday party with the Jiang family.
Thinking back carefully, the last time they met outside Lu Lin Mansion, the girl seemed to be sitting in Jiang Xu's car.
At this time, Xie Heng, who was far away abroad, was probably only in the pursuit stage at most.
Since she is not a formal girlfriend at all, there is really no need for them to care too much.
The more Guan Li thought about it, the more he felt that he had gone astray, so he quickly said, "Sir, I said too much."
The man did not pursue anything. He stared at the profile outside the window in the rearview mirror, and as always, it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Guan Li breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to check the time, and saw that it was just past eleven o'clock, so he said, "Sir, Director Lu made an appointment with you at half past eleven, we should set off."
Director Lu is Lu Zhengping, the director of the Planning Bureau. During this period, the projects along the southern line have started to bid one after another. In addition to the public seminars, some private dinners are also inevitable.
Hearing the man behind him hum, Guan Li glanced at the driver beside him: "Go to Zhenfu Club."

On the other side, Jiang Wan had no idea that she had met the man she feared the most without her knowledge.
While Zhong Hang wasn't paying attention, she sent a message to Fu Qing and then sat in the back seat of the car under Zhong Hang's guidance.
And just at the moment of closing the car door, I heard the meaningful voice of the man next to me.
"Ms. Jiang looks even prettier in person than in the live broadcast."
Jiang Wan's eyes moved slightly, and then she could see Pan Mingqi's appearance clearly.
This man was actually quite handsome, with a standard straight nose, black eyes, and a slight curve at the corners of his lips. His facial features were indeed somewhat similar to those of his father Pan Xiulin.
However, the gaze he gave her at this moment was obscure, especially the uncomfortable sense of inquiry, which was too undisguised.
Jiang Wan's eyelashes drooped slightly, and he saw Meng Shuyi's figure in her eyes, who was equally arrogant and also revealed an innate sense of contempt.
At this time, Pan Mingqi seemed to have treated her as a plaything that was within his reach.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wan pursed her lips, looked away and looked forward: "Mr. Pan, thank you for the compliment."
Pan Mingqi leaned back lazily, but his eyes still wandered on her.
He didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain today.
This girl was really pretty, better than any he had met before, especially her eyes, which when she looked at people seemed to be through a layer of fog and had the ability to confuse people's minds.
She was very fair, and her neck was so slender that it seemed as if it would break if pinched, but she didn't look too thin. Instead, she had a kind of pure charm that could stimulate people's desire even if she did nothing.
It was still drizzling outside the glass window, and the girl was a little wet when she got into the car.
And under the influence of such a damp and surging atmosphere, the more Pan Mingqi looked, the more restless he felt in his heart, and his throat became tighter and tighter.
He had no shortage of women, but this was the first time that the other person just sat next to him and did nothing, and a certain thought was already brewing in his mind.
Originally he just wanted to get to know them today, but now he changed his mind.
He couldn't wait that long for such a top-notch product.
Zhong Hang held the steering wheel and casually glanced at the rearview mirror inside the car, but he could see what Pan Mingqi was thinking at a glance, and he couldn't help but lower his eyelashes to hide the complicated emotions in his eyes.
After Pan Xiuwen's eldest son died, the Pan family almost always responded to the requests of their "only son" Pan Mingqi. Even if Pan Mingqi got into trouble, their first reaction was to clean up the mess instead of blaming him.
He had been Pan Mingqi's henchman for so long and had made a lot of small profits, but this was obviously not enough.
In the past few days, his father has repeatedly reminded Junjian Capital that the South Coast Tourism Zone project is about to be finalized, and asked him to make Pan Mingqi happy.
Of course, Zhong Hang also knew that if Pan Mingqi said a few good words to Pan Xiuwen, their Zhong family might really have a chance to get a share of the pie. Even if not, it would still be better than standing still.
The problem is that Pan Mingqi has everything he needs and is tired of playing. Even if he wants to coax her, he doesn't know where to start.
However, what even Zhong Hang did not expect was that the opportunity would appear in front of him without any warning.
It had been a long time since Pan Mingqi had shown such an impatient and interested look towards someone or something.
Even though he felt a little regretful and sorry, Zhong Hang had to shut off the surprise and infatuation in his heart when he saw Jiang Wan, and remind himself to seize this opportunity to help Pan Mingqi succeed.
When Master Pan is unhappy, he is dissatisfied with everything, but if he is happy, he can still get things done.
Thinking of this, he asked casually, "Miss Jiang, please don't call her Mr. Pan. It's too strange. I think you should call her Senior Pan. It sounds much better."
Jiang Wan curled her lips in response, but she didn't really call him Senior Pan as Zhong Hang said.
Zhong Hang noticed her aloofness, paused, and changed the subject: "Excuse me, Miss Jiang just said she was going to Chao'an District. It's almost time for lunch now. Are you planning to have lunch with your friends?"
