At the parking lot at the foot of the mountain, Sheng Tang’s car was parked right next to Gu Shiting’s vehicle.
Unlike his student days, he now holds a position in the company and is also preparing his research institute. His comings and goings symbolize the Huishi Group, and his car has been replaced with a limited-edition model.
Sheng Tang knew this car was worth over ten million yuan.
The driver was burly, the sa height as Gu Shiting but much broader, exuding an overwhelming presence, clearly serving as both chauffeur and bodyguard.
Sheng Tang was about to get into her car when Gu Shiting suddenly said, "Tangtang, can we find a place to catch up?"
He said this, nervously looking at Sheng Tang.
If Sheng Tang furrowed her brow even slightly, he would imdiately retreat to his safe zone.
He didn’t want to cause her pain.
However, today at the cetery, in front of her grandmother’s portrait, Gu Shiting found that ti had faded the scars; Sheng Tang saw him standing there without any special sorrow.
This discovery made him a bit elated, though he knew he shouldn’t be.
"Okay," Sheng Tang hesitated.
She also wanted to know how Gu Shiting had been all these years.
She couldn’t be with him, but she didn’t really hate him. She missed her grandmother and was deeply saddened by her passing, but she never thought Gu Shiting had intentionally killed anyone.
He had simply made a mistake.
Just like the mistakes Sheng Tang herself had made, which could never be nded and caused endless regret.
Gu Shiting’s car led the way in front, and Sheng Tang followed in her vehicle.
The cars headed back to the city, taking the highway.
After exiting the highway into the city, there was a coffee shop not far away, and quite a few people were sitting inside at this hour.
Luckily, there was a parking lot nearby.
Sheng Tang and Gu Shiting parked their cars and walked into the coffee shop to sit down.
He kept looking at her, afraid to miss even a glance.
"You’ve gotten so skinny." He looked at her wrist, so slender that his hand couldn’t fully encircle it.
Sheng Tang didn’t answer his question this ti.
She unexpectedly noticed that Gu Shiting was still wearing that platinum ring—the one he bought after his college entrance exam.
After they broke up, Sheng Tang had taken the ring off and kept it in a drawer at her mother’s house.
The ring might have changed color a bit, but the design was still so familiar.
She looked away.
The waiter brought the coffee, and Sheng Tang took a sip, holding it in her hands.
"I heard you joined the Taylor Research Institute, is that right?" she asked.
Gu Shiting nodded, "Yes."
"When will you go back to work?"
"Probably in a few years," Gu Shiting replied.
He explained to Sheng Tang the purpose of his return to the country this ti in detail.
His parents were not comfortable with handing over the company entirely to Song Chen. No matter how loyal Song Chen might be, he was still the son-in-law, and from a private standpoint, excessive trust breeds corruption.
Song Chen was aware of this too; he wasn’t arrogant enough to ignore that fact.
This ti, Gu Shiting returned with a position equal to Song Chen’s, serving both as a shield and a safeguard for Song Chen.
"... Are you used to the work?" Sheng Tang asked again.
She wanted to say, "You dislike dealing with people and business; you love complex data analysis in the lab, you love physics."
However, people always change.
"It’s alright; Song Chen helps . I also interned in Switzerland for a while," Gu Shiting said. "Major decisions are discussed by the managent team; I just need to make the final call. Generally, there shouldn’t be any major issues."
"It seems you’re quite skilled at it," Sheng Tang said.
Listening to his relaxed tone, Sheng Tang genuinely felt he was very confident.
But he’s been like this since he was young; whatever he chose to learn, he always picked it up extraordinarily fast.
He is that kind of genius.
Gu Shiting smiled slightly.
