Chapter 1250: Chapter 1249 Rumors Chapter 1250: Chapter 1249 Rumors “Fool, why should we care about the gazes of others?” Zhou Shengting wished the whole world knew.

Bai Lan furrowed her brows and glanced at him, finding it somewhat unbelievable. Wasn’t he always low-key?

Why was he being so high-profile now?

When they passed by the secretary pool area, they were again assessed from head to toe.

Especially just before entering the door, she could feel a sharp gaze piercing her back as if trying to shoot through her.

Turning her head back, she saw a graceful figure standing there, dressed in a suit that perfectly showcased her curvy figure.

Bai Lan frowned slightly, but she also guessed the person’s identity–it should be a secretary appearing here.

She suddenly looked towards Zhou Shengting, but couldn’t spot any telltale signs.

However, she could feel the jealousy in the gaze she had just felt.

Could it be one of Zhou Shengting’s admirers? Otherwise, why would that look be so filled with sorrow?

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Shengting noticed the confusion in her eyes and couldn’t help but ask.

“Nothing, nothing at all,” Bai Lan shook her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Could it be because she was pregnant that she was prone to wild thoughts?

Bai Lan shook her head, dismissing that notion.

“Sit over on the sofa for a bit, I’ll finish up then we can go home,” Zhou Shengting arranged.

Bai Lan nodded and sat on the sofa, taking in the surroundings of the office. It indeed reflected Zhou Shengting’s preference for luxury and simplicity.

It was her first time here, and she hadn’t expected that it was thanks to the baby she got to come this time.

After looking around for a while and feeling somewhat bored, she casually picked up a financial magazine by her side and was instantly stunned–the person on the cover was Zhou Shengting.

His hair was neatly combed, eyes bright and brows sharp, nose high-bridged, and the contour of his face seemed sculpted by God Himself.

Even though she saw him every day, Bai Lan had to admit that her heart still skipped a beat when she saw the photo.

Bai Lan caressed the photo with her hand and lightly bit her lip. This man was always so charismatic.

Then, she looked up at Zhou Shengting, seeing him engrossed in his work.

Bai Lan smiled slightly. A man at work seemed even more attractive.

After sitting for a while, Bai Lan wanted to use the restroom, but not wanting to disturb Zhou Shengting, she quietly went to look for the bathroom.

The restroom was just around the corner in the hallway outside.

Bai Lan went in and had just closed the door when she heard voices talking outside.

“Did you see the woman the CEO brought in?” one voice deliberately lowered its tone, whispering.

“Yeah, I saw her. Nothing special, to be honest. That woman isn’t a match for the CEO at all. I think Su Qian and the CEO are a much better match,” another voice gossiped.

“Su Qian, you mean the National Goddess Su Qian? Our company’s brand spokesperson?”

“Yeah, didn’t she come to the company the other day? You could see the love in her eyes for the CEO; she couldn’t hide it. She thought the CEO would invite her to dinner after the meeting, but he left as soon as it ended,” the voice seemed somewhat schadenfreude.

“But honestly, Su Qian really lives up to the title of National Goddess. Just look at her graceful figure and her perfect features. She’s flawless, a heavenly match for the CEO,” the voice was filled with envy.

Bai Lan listened and paused for a moment. So there was this matter? It was her first time hearing about it.
