How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself? Chapter 171 - 109: Service can be thoughtful, but not outrag

Gu Heng: "Don’t get it wrong, she’s my cousin, not my sister."

"I don’t care, you don’t have a real sister, so this cousin of mine is just like a real sister!!"

"This just shows that you’re not doing a good job as a sister, your own brother posts on social dia and you don’t even know."

"I was at work! Do you understand what ’interns have no rights’ ans? If I got caught checking social dia during work hours, my internship report might get a black mark!"

Gu Heng couldn’t be bothered to argue with her; knowing Gu Xinran’s personality, if you started a fuss with her, she might make a scene all afternoon...

He then asked, "So who told you I ca to Shanghai?"

On the other end of the phone, Gu Xinran answered without hesitation: "Director Lin, I was reading an industry report at my desk when she called , said that you had co to Shanghai, and even asked to bring sothing from her office to you."

After speaking, as the sound of bustling footsteps ca through the phone, Gu Xinran moved to a secluded corner and lowered her voice, "Brother, why don’t you share with how far things have progressed with Director Lin? Are you guys exchanging gifts now? Can I start calling her my sister-in-law?"

Gu Heng, listening to Gu Xinran’s secretive voice, also began to wonder...

Lin Ran had ntioned earlier sothing about giving him a gift, which he hadn’t taken seriously...

When she had left her hotown, her mother, Xu Hong, had stuffed a trunk full of cured goods and local products for her.

Given her personality...

The so-called gift was probably to return the favor...

But unexpectedly, not long after he had finished a video call with her, she had imdiately called Gu Xinran to have her deliver the gift...

This piqued Gu Heng’s interest...

He imdiately asked Gu Xinran: "Did Lin Ran tell you what it is?"

"Nope, she just told where it was, and I went in and took it out. It’s wrapped up tightly, can’t see anything at all.

Should I open it for you?"

Hearing this, Gu Heng hurriedly stopped her, "No, just bring it to ."

"Okay, then co pick up."

Gu Xinran was just a slightly gossipy girl, but she knew her limits...

Since Gu Heng didn’t want her to open it, she didn’t bring it up again.

"Now?"

Looking at the ti on his watch, it was only a bit past three, Gu Heng was a bit puzzled, wondering, shouldn’t she be at work during this ti?

"Right now, yes, my team leader just told Mr. Lin assigned so work to , then granted Miaomiao and an afternoon off! Hurry up, co pick up!

I’m really fed up with the serious atmosphere at work!!"

Talking to Gu Heng, Gu Xinran didn’t feel the need for boundaries...

In her eyes, no matter how wealthy Gu Heng was, he was her brother, and troubling him felt entirely natural...

"Okay, then co downstairs, I’ll be there to pick you up."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Heng imdiately pressed the button Xu Ying had ntioned...

Soon, the voice in the cockpit ca through the speakers.

"Mr. Gu, what can I do for you?"

"Don’t rush to Baoli Xuan just yet, head to the Global Financial Center Tower first."

"Alright."

Facing Gu Heng’s instructions, though Xu Ying found it sowhat hard to understand—after driving for over ten minutes, they were less than a kiloter away from the Baoli Xuan Restaurant, and now suddenly heading back to Lujiazui felt like a bit of a hassle...

Despite that, she had no choice but to unconditionally accept the order, even without the right to ask why, and directly told the driver to turn around and head towards the Global Financial Center Tower...

.....

.....

Another ten minutes...

The Toyota Alphard parked at the temporary parking area of the Global Financial Center Tower...

At this ti, it was a bit past three in the afternoon, and not many pedestrians were around the building. Gu Heng imdiately spotted Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao waiting on the side.

Once the car ca to a complete stop, Gu Heng pressed the door open button, and Xu Ying swiftly stood by the door.

"Mr. Gu, do you need any help with anything?"

Gu Heng had just wanted to get out of the car to call Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao...

After all, the parking spot was a bit away from the building, and shouting across a public area seed inappropriate.

Now that Xu Ying was volunteering, Gu Heng didn’t decline and directed her, "See those two girls over there holding a box? Tell them I asked for them to co over."

Xu Ying thought Gu Heng was asking her to help him strike up a conversation, although reluctantly, she gritted her teeth and responded, "Okay, but I’m not sure I can invite them over..."

Gu Heng glanced at her oddly.

"Those two girls are my sisters, what are you unsure about?"

"Ah..."

Realizing her misunderstanding, Xu Ying was about to apologize…

But she couldn’t figure out quite how to express it...

Should she admit she thought Gu Heng was hitting on girls?

Fortunately, Gu Heng didn’t seem to care much, waved his hand, and said: "Go on, go on."

Grateful for the reprieve, Xu Ying quickly made her way towards Gu Xinran and Tao Miaomiao...

After a brief conversation, a thrilled Gu Xinran ran over from a distance...

Before Gu Heng could speak, Gu Xinran stuck her head into the vehicle, looking around at the interior with surprise, "Bro, did you change cars?"

"No, this is a courtesy car provided by the hotel I’m staying at."

"Oh, oh!"

"Stop chattering and get in."

On hearing Gu Heng’s words, Gu Xinran poked her head inside again, "Just two seats, huh? How are we going to fit?"

This took Gu Heng by surprise...

He hadn’t really thought of that problem...
