"Our boss is Gu Wenze, the president of the Gu Group. Why would he ever come to a place like this..."
The manager looked up disdainfully, only for his expression to change the instant he spotted Gu Wenze behind Qiao Hua. He nearly slid out of his chair.
"P-President Gu..."
The manager hurried to his feet and rushed over to Gu Wenze, his face plastered with a fawning smile. "President Gu, what brings you here?"
There was no trace of his earlier disdain.
Gu Wenze drew Qiao Hua into his arms. "I had no idea my wife needed me to show up just to get access to the security footage."
The manager broke out in a cold sweat. He had never imagined that the woman before him was the boss's wife. He hurriedly apologized. "I failed to recognize who you were. Please be generous and forgive me. I'll pull up the footage right away."
With that, the manager had his staff pull up all the security footage from yesterday through today, then respectfully invited Qiao Hua over to watch.
Qiao Hua instinctively glanced at Gu Wenze, surprise in her eyes.
Gu Wenze actually owned this residential complex.
Still, it was hardly surprising. The Gu Group had interests in many industries, including construction.
Looks like bringing Gu Wenze along today was the right call.
I actually got to throw my weight around by borrowing his clout for once.
Now I finally understand why those people are so desperate to get into high society. I'd love it too.
An almost imperceptible smile curved Gu Wenze's lips. "Weren't you going to watch the footage?"
Only then did Qiao Hua set aside her wandering thoughts and start examining the footage in earnest.
Before long, Qiao Hua spotted someone unexpected on the screen.
You Xiaonian.
