Not far away, received the news and let out a sigh of relief. He walked up to the black sedan, bent down, and respectfully said, “ manager Gu, everything is arranged.” Inside the car, Gu Jingchen responded lightly. His face showed little expression, and his deep-set eyes made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
looked at Gu Jingchen and couldn't help but marvel inwardly. Having followed manager Gu for so many years, he had witnessed what it meant to be inscrutable. No matter how formidable one was in business, standing before manager Gu, it was still impossible to see through his thoughts.
“ manager Gu,” said softly, “the celebration is about to begin; shall we head over?”
A faint smile appeared on Gu Jingchen’s lips as he replied, “Mm.”
…
One week earlier, at Yuqing Pavilion.
Gu Jingchen sat in a chair with a dark expression. A heat surged within him, coursing wildly through his body. He knew that there was something in that glass of wine.
Closing his eyes, Gu Jingchen took a deep breath. He couldn’t let anyone notice anything amiss, especially that woman.
With that thought in mind, he braced himself against the table and stood up, walking toward the door. Just as he was about to open it, the door suddenly swung open.
A woman appeared at the entrance. She wore a black professional suit, her makeup meticulously applied, and she was quite beautiful. Upon seeing him, she froze for a moment: “You…”
Gu Jingchen frowned and, without waiting for her to finish speaking, covered her mouth with one hand and pulled her inside. The woman was dragged in and panicked, struggling incessantly.
He pinned her against the wall and said coldly, “Don’t move!”
The woman looked at him with fear in her eyes. As he gazed back at her, the heat within him intensified. He knew he could no longer stay there.
Gu Jingchen let go of the woman and turned to walk towards the door. The woman looked at him, a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes. Just as Gu Jingchen was about to leave, she suddenly rushed over and grabbed his arm. "Wait!" Gu Jingchen stopped and turned his head. The woman looked at him, breathing rapidly. Gu Jingchen's eyes fell on her hand. The woman followed his gaze and found that her hand was holding his arm. She was startled and quickly let go of him: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it." Gu Jingchen didn't say anything, looking at her with a dark look in his eyes. The woman felt a chill on her back when he looked at her. She pursed her lips and said carefully: "Are you... okay?" Gu Jingchen still didn't say anything, staring at her, his eyes became more and more fiery. The woman couldn't stand being looked at by him, lowered her head, and whispered: "If you're okay, I'll leave first." After that, she turned around to leave. Gu Jingchen suddenly grabbed her arm. The woman looked at him in surprise. Gu Jingchen looked at her and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't go." The woman was stunned. Gu Jingchen looked at her with burning eyes. His body was hot and his consciousness was gradually blurring. But he didn't want to let go of this woman. He could feel that this woman could relieve the heat in his body. He looked at the woman and unconsciously moved closer to her. The woman looked at his face getting closer and closer, and her heartbeat accelerated. Just when his lips were about to touch hers, she suddenly raised her legs and pushed against his lower body. Gu Jingchen groaned and bent down.
The woman seized the opportunity to push him away and ran out.
Gu Jingchen's face turned pale with pain, his forehead drenched in cold sweat. He crouched on the ground, gritting his teeth. This woman actually dared to kick him!
...
Upon returning to the the Gu, Gu Jingchen immediately ordered an investigation into the woman's identity. Soon, the results came in.
[Name: Li Xue]
[Age: 27]
[Occupation: Employee at a tech company]
[Personality: Gentle and dignified, poised and knowledgeable]
[Background: Returned from studying abroad, employed at a tech company, responsible and diligent, with no negative records.]
[Family: Parents are alive, has one younger brother.]
Gu Jingchen looked at the information with a playful expression. Gentle and dignified, poised and knowledgeable? He recalled that woman's kick in the private room and smirked. The disparity in personality was too great.
" manager Gu," an assistant Wang standing nearby said cautiously, "Should we notify Miss Li?"
"No need," Gu Jingchen replied indifferently. "I'll go see her myself." He wanted to see just how gentle and dignified this woman truly was.
...
Today was the the Gu company's celebration. Gu Jingchen's black Rolls Royce slowly drove up and stopped outside the venue. The car door opened, and Gu Jingchen stepped out.
Many company executives and clients were standing outside the venue. Upon seeing Gu Jingchen, they hurried over.
" manager Gu!"
"Hello, manager Gu!"
"General Gu is here!"
Gu Jingchen looked at the crowd and nodded slightly. "Hello everyone."
"General Gu, the celebration is about to start. Let's head inside," a company executive said enthusiastically.
"Mm." Gu Jingchen nodded and walked toward the venue.
The executives and several clients followed behind him, creating quite a spectacle that drew many gazes.
As Gu Jingchen entered the venue, his eyes scanned the crowd.
He spotted Li Xue, paused for a second, then shifted his gaze away.
Li Xue stood in the front row, watching Gu Jingchen with a look of surprise on her face.
Is it really him?
Of course, she recognized Gu Jingchen; the last time they met was at Yuqing Pavilion when she accidentally barged into his private room and even kicked him.
She never expected he would be the president of Jing Group.
Instinctively, Li Xue avoided his gaze and lowered her head.
Gu Jingchen approached the podium and stood with the executives.
He looked out at the audience and smiled slightly. "Hello everyone."
Thunderous applause erupted from below.
Gu Jingchen raised his hand to signal for silence.
Gradually, the venue quieted down.
Gu Jingchen looked at the crowd and said loudly, "Welcome to the celebration of Jing Group. On behalf of Jing Group, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone!"
Applause rang out once more.
Gu Jingchen spoke into the microphone, his voice deep and magnetic, his words concise and powerful, making it easy for people to listen attentively.
Li Xue stood below the stage, watching Gu Jingchen with mixed emotions.
She never expected to encounter him here.
