Gu Yucheng put down his briefcase and then sat down on the sofa, sipping on aromatic coffee.
Half an hour passed!
Director Lin was still nowhere to be seen.
An hour passed!
There was still no sign of Director Lin.
In the blink of an eye, it was already noon.
The front desk staff, with a smile, said to Gu Yucheng: "President Gu, the workday has co to an end! Director Lin is still in a eting, and he has to attend another eting downtown this afternoon, I’m afraid he won’t be able to et with President Gu today."
"Then, I’ll call Director Lin later," Gu Yucheng had no choice but to leave.
His assistant, Lu Fei, who was driving the car, said: "President Gu, this Director Lin must be up to sothing. How could he not have even a mont to et?"
For Gu Yucheng, who had long been mingling in the business world, how could he not know!
"But, President Gu, if Director Lin won’t et with us, who is pulling the strings?" Lu Fei didn’t understand.
Gu Yucheng tossed his briefcase aside, then leaned back lazily and coolly in the back seat, "If you want to know who’s pulling the strings, turn the car around and see whom this surnad Lin will et!"
So Lu Fei did just that.
Indeed, it wasn’t long before Director Lin, with his potbelly, erged from the Land and Resources Office and left in his official car.
Lu Fei quietly followed behind.
The car stopped at a low-key farmhouse courtyard. Director Lin got out of the car and walked in.
Once inside, he went up to a small wooden building by the creek and said with a smile: "Doctor Gu, receiving your call, I was indeed a little surprised..."
He ca forward, and Gu Qingchen embraced him, "Big brother Lin, long ti no see!"
"Indeed, it has been a long ti!" Director Lin gave him a punch, "Doctor Gu isn’t right anymore, I should be calling you President Gu, right?"
"Don’t make fun of . You know what I like, don’t you?" Gu Qingchen gestured for him to sit down, "How is your father’s health?"
A few years ago, Director Lin’s father had suddenly suffered a stroke and beca hemiplegic, and it was Gu Qingchen who had personally treated him.
At the ti, Gu Qingchen had refused the Lin Family’s generous reward, and naturally, they kept this favor in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, a few years later, there would be further interactions between them.
"I have him do rehabilitation on schedule, maintain regular habits, and strictly control his diet," Director Lin laughed, "He complains about every day! But the more he complains, the stronger he becos..."
Gu Qingchen also laughed and raised his glass, "Big brother Lin, thank you very much for today..."
"Don’t ntion it!" Director Lin also raised his glass, "It’s been a long ti since we’ve had a drink together! What are your plans moving forward?"
"To work hard and grow!" Gu Qingchen didn’t hide it from him.
Director Lin raised his glass: "Although I still hoped you would be a doctor, as a brother, I support all your decisions! I won’t give this piece of land to Gu Yucheng!"
The two chatted a bit more, and then Director Lin discreetly departed by car.
At this mont, Gu Yucheng walked in from outside, and when he saw that the man sitting by the window was Gu Qingchen, he knew that it must have been Gu Qingchen who was up to no good!
Gu Qingchen was holding a wine glass, gently swirling it, the red liquid, the aromatic scent, and the natural beauty by the creek, with the water flowing gently...
Gu Yucheng approached, "Gu Qingchen, what do you an by this?"
"What could I an?" Gu Qingchen leisurely sipped the red wine in his glass, "Whatever you think it ans, that’s what it ans!"
"Was it you who told Director Lin not to et with ?" Gu Yucheng slapped the table, speaking ominously.
A faint smile appeared on Gu Qingchen’s handso face: "Just bla your own incompetence! Do you know what it ans to be the eternal runner-up?"
In the Gu Family, Gu Yucheng was the second young master, but he was rely an illegitimate child!
As long as Gu Qingchen was around, he would forever be the runner-up!
Gu Yucheng overturned the table with a single hand, "Gu Qingchen, do you really think that you can secure a foothold in Gu Group? It’s not like a single piece of land is going to squeeze out..."
Gu Qingchen elegantly lifted his wine glass: "Let tell you as well, not just anyone can beco a doctor by donning a doctor’s coat! Also, keep your woman in line, don’t let Bei Ran see her again!"
"What? Are you afraid that Bei Ran will find out that you got drunk six years ago because of Ji Su?" Gu Yucheng sneered coldly.
