Stealing Your Heart Chapter 501

“Do you know the person on the invitation card or are you just interested in her?” she casually asked out of curiosity when Zong Jinghao had stopped beside her on his way to the meeting. The PR Department Head bent down to pick up the documents she accidentally dropped. Among the documents was an invitation card from her friend which she had forgotten to take out.

After picking up her documents, she looked at the invitation card for a short moment before handing it to Zong Jinghao. “Since I’m already married, I don’t need another wedding gown. If I see one that is prettier, I may be tempted to marry a new husband. So, why don’t you have it instead?”

As the PR Department Head dealt with all sorts of sensitive matters on a daily basis, she was adept at observing one’s reactions.

Even if Zong Jinghao didn’t show any desire, it was obvious to her that he was interested in the person on the card. Or else, he wouldn’t have stopped in his tracks.

Zong Jinghao accepted it without hesitation. “Thank you.”

The PR Department Head was a middle-aged woman of around forty years of age. Her hair was cropped short and she was dressed in professional office attire. Following Zong Jinghao into the office, she asked in a nosy manner, “Do you know the lady in the picture?”

Has he changed companions again? The lady in the picture didn’t look like the one which he declared in the office to be his wife.

“Do my personal matters interest you so much?” Zong Jinghao gave her an expressionless glance.

The PR Department Head smiled and answered savvily, “Women are born nosy so I am no different. This is despite the fact that you have always treated me like a man at work.”

Just as she spoke, she went to take her seat. Zong Jinghao only valued one’s capabilities and never cared about one’s gender.

When he looked down at the lady wearing a red Cheongsam on the invitation card, his gaze darkened.

After Qin Ya’s plastic surgery was completed, the doctor had sent him a photo. Hence, he knew how Qin Ya looked like now. Even though she no longer looked the same, he could still easily recognize her from the photo.

She had disappeared after she left the hospital. Hence, he surmised that she should be together with Lin Xinyan. Although there was no indication of Lin Xinyan’s presence on the invitation card, he somehow felt that she was definitely connected.

He got Guan Jing to put the invitation card back in his office before sitting down to start the meeting.

Hundreds of high-level employees were sitting in attention. To them, every meeting felt like torture.

They were worried about saying the wrong thing or that the boss was dissatisfied with their performance. Even worse was if the meeting went on for hours endlessly causing them to get hemorrhoids from sitting too long.

All this while, Zong Jinghao was stingy with his smile. His frosty look always gave them the impression they had done something wrong.

In fact, even when they did their job perfectly, they were still unable to elicit a smile from him.

However, they didn’t mind it as he did praise them, which was already an improvement. Previously, they got nothing for completing their work. However, when they didn’t finish or if it weren’t up to his standards, he would admonish them in public without a care for their pride. Nowadays, that seldom happened anymore.

Therefore, they were now content with how things were. Nevertheless, they still prayed that such a situation would quickly pass, as they were worried about being dragged in as collateral damage.

This time, the meeting didn’t go on for too long and ended in a little more than two hours.
