Gu Yuanzhou’s words stirred an inexplicable sense of panic within . Could he have detected sothing amiss?
Even though my mind was in utter turmoil, I managed to compose myself and walked up to him slowly.
“President Gu, is there sothing you need?”
He eyed for a mont and pondered for a few seconds,
“When did you first et my wife?”
His sudden question threw off guard and I imdiately realized that he seed to harbor so doubts about .
I rummaged through my mories diligently.
Recalling the details of my interactions with Song Xiaoyun…
“President Gu, may I ask, have I made any mistakes in my job?”
In a defensive retreat, I asked the question in order to discern his intentions.
“Not at all. It’s just that your current way of handling things is strikingly similar to my wife!”
I imdiately feigned joy.
“Thank you for your complint, President Gu! Actually, when I was working in the company earlier, I just happened to et Mrs. Gu a few tis. She offered so career advice, which has been imnsely beneficial for .” Gu Yuanzhou squinted at for a while before he eventually said, “How did you negotiate with Mina?”
“Mrs. Gu once told that everyone has a weakness. If you can fully understand a person’s weakness, you can essentially defeat them. This is the so-called ‘know yourself and know your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles with a hundred victories.’ I knew that Mina wanted an audition opportunity, and I just happened to have a friend who knew Director Zhou, so I gave Mina this opportunity. After all, for her, the prospects of our company’s developnt are no worse than Tianjiao. She made the right choice by choosing us.”
I chose to omit so details and downplay the situation as best as I could.
I knew that Gu Yuanzhou had no interest in the entertainnt industry and he wouldn’t verify my words.
After hearing out my explanation, the befuddled look in his eyes gradually faded away.
“Alright, you can go back to work now! ”
It seed that Gu Yuanzhou suddenly rembered sothing, and he stopped conversating with .
I busied myself organizing the docunts in the office.
He leaned back on his chair with his eyes closed to relax.
“We are travelling to Haicheng for a business trip tomorrow, you’re coming with !”
His few words were brief but indisputably assertive.
But I had promised Director Zhou that I would help him with sothing within these three days. If I couldn’t complete it, Mina might breach her contract.
“President Gu, I have so things to do these days, I’m afraid 1 can’t…”
A sharp gaze interrupted .
He cut off,
“When you signed the contract, you should have made yourself clear that it involves being on call 24 hours a day. You don’t have personal ti.”
“Oh, alright!’
Truthfully, I was aware of the terms of this contract, but I didn’t want to go on this business trip with him.
I felt that he was sowhat suspicious of now…
The closer two people are, the easier it is to see through each other’s hearts.
However, my plan had fallen apart, he didn’t even give the chance to refuse.
“Go ho and get ready. We’re leaving first thing tomorrow morning.”
“Oh, alright!’
As I walked out of the company, I saw Ye ngyan again.
She was standing on the other side of the road at a café, seemingly waiting for intentionally.
As our eyes t, I imdiately turned around and walked off. She hurried after .
“Xiaoyun!’
She called out my na.
I stopped in my tracks and looked at her.
“What do you want?”
“Xiaoyun, you heard what I said with Brother Gu earlier, didn’t you?”
“If it is about you marrying Shen Yishu, I’ve heard a bit about it! But it’s your own choice and has nothing to do with .”
Ye ngyan watched cautiously,
“Xiaoyun, I know you’re a good friend. You’ve helped on several occasions, and you even helped my mother find a job. I’m really grateful to you. But regarding my marriage to Shen Yishu, please don’t ntion it in front of Brother Gu, I will handle it myself.”
I understood what Ye ngyan ant, she didn’t want to ddle in her affairs.
Still, at this mont, when I saw Ye ngyan again, only then did I realize that she was much more complicated than when I first t her.
She had ambition hidden in her eyes…
In the night breeze, her smile remained gentle.
Just not as likable as before.
“l also don’t like to interfere in other people’s business.”
“Okay, goodbye!’
1 turned and walked to the bus station. It was peak hour, the station was crowded with commuters. I had to wait a long ti before the bus arrived. After I got on the bus, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Ye ngyan getting into Gu Yuanzhou’s car.
But, to my surprise,
Ye ngyan didn’t sit in Gu Yuanzhou’s front passenger seat, she sat in the back.
I couldn’t understand why.
I rember that last ti I rode in Gu Yuanzhou’s car, he also wouldn’t let sit in the front passenger seat. It seed that he must be reserving the front seat for soone more important?
By rights, Ye ngyan who has been with him for so many years and is the woman he likes, couldn’t she even be eligible to sit in the front seat?
I just closed my eyes to rest my mind….
In fact, Gu Yuanzhou didn’t give much ti to react.
The next day at Seven in the morning, we took a flight out of the city.
He was not stingy and booked business class for .
However, I didn’t sit next to him, there was a row of seats between us.
He didn’t talk much, and once on the plane, he ordered a glass of red wine, sipping it while dealing with company affairs on his laptop.
I just asked the flight attendant for a blanket, covered my face and took a nap.
Two hours later, we arrived in C City.
When we reached C City, a dedicated driver ca to pick us up at the airport.
We then checked into a hotel….
The most top-notch hotel in C City. At that ti, I was still pondering whether to book a suite for Gu Yuanzhou and whether 1 should book another one for myself?
Who knew that as soon as he reached the front desk and took out his identity card, the female receptionist bowed to him in greeting with a smile.
“President Gu, welco back!”
Gu Yuanzhou waved his hand, then the hotel manager ca over, bowed to greet him, and personally carried his luggage into the elevator. I was still thinking about what the receptionist had just said.
Welco back?
What did she an?
Such phrase would only be said when the property owner cos ho by the staff mbers.
Could it be that this five-star hotel is owned by Gu Yuanzhou?
But, when I got married to Gu Yuanzhou, he was clearly a penniless man, just a worker barely surviving under my uncle’s managent.
Although we later founded Zhenyi Company with my investnt, even if we sell all of the company’s current total assets, it can just barely buy this hotel.
But evidently, Zhenyi Company hasn’t been sold, so what’s up with this hotel?
I was baffled.
Standing in the elevator, the hotel manager humbly reported the recent earnings to Gu Yuanzhou.
Gu Yuanzhou just stared at the elevator door without turning his eyes, his hands behind him, saying nothing.
The elevator went up to the top floor of the hotel.
It was a top-tier luxury apartnt.
Upon entering, you could see at least a 300-square-ter opulent mansion, exquisitely decorated.
Gu Yuanzhou went to the restroom, while looking at the busy hotel manager, I tried to probe him quietly,
“l am President Gu’s assistant! I have ntioned you to President Gu previously…”
The manager imdiately perked up,
“Please put in a good word for to President Gu in the future.”
“Likewise, let’s look out for each other.’
After making so small talk, seizing the opportunity when he let down his guard, I casually asked a question.
“When did President Gu buy this hotel… you know, with so many assets, even I get confused..”
