Chapter 1145: Chapter 1144: Showing No Mercy
The plane finally landed at the airport, and the driver had already been waiting outside.
In the car, Shu Pan gazed outside, constantly thinking about one thing, should she still go to work at the Lu family’s company?
After today’s scene, would Director Lu think she was being too sensitive or suspect her of probing for business secrets?
“What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed,” Gu Shaoting asked.
“Did you do that on purpose today?” Shu Pan frowned and asked. She really couldn’t believe it—how could it be such a coincidence to run into each other in such a large airport?
“No, I remember what you said; it was Director Lu who came over to greet me,” Gu Shaoting replied with an innocent look, but he wouldn’t admit that he went out of his way to be under their observation.
“Really?” Shu Pan was still doubtful.
“Truer than pearls,” Gu Shaoting affirmed.
“Now, I’m too embarrassed to go back to work. It’s so awkward,” Shu Pan sighed.
Gu Shaoting was secretly thrilled inside; this was exactly the outcome he wanted.
He knew that Shu Pan was sensitive and that it was better if she didn’t go back. Haha.
But he couldn’t appear too happy, otherwise Shu Pan would suspect he had ulterior motives.
“Why would you feel embarrassed? You didn’t steal or rob, and besides, I didn’t say anything,” Gu Shaoting consoled her, pretending to be innocent even though he was quite happy inside.
“It still doesn’t feel quite right,” Shu Pan replied faintly.
I wonder what Director Lu thinks? He wouldn’t believe that I came to steal business secrets, would he?
The more she thought about it, the more anxious Shu Pan’s heart became. She thought it might be better to go back and resign.
Gu Shaoting, seeing that Shu Pan was not very happy, immediately kept quiet.
This was the best time to say less.
…
Back at home, seeing her two children, Shu Pan finally showed a smile. It had been a long time since she had seen her little treasures.
Shu Pan stuck close with the two kids all the time; even Gu Shaoting found it hard to get a word in.
However, seeing Shu Pan happy, he felt foolishly joyful himself.
This harmonious and joyful scene was precisely what he sought. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝔭𝔲𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
After resting for one night, Gu Shaoting got up early the next morning, ready to go to the company.
Since he had been away recently and hadn’t been at the company for a while, he had quite a lot of work piled up.
When he arrived at the company, everyone was quite surprised. It was rare to see Mr. Gu come to the company this early.
Xia Xiaoqiao also arrived, and after such a long time without seeing Mr. Gu, she truly missed him.
Yes, the feeling of missing him.
She didn’t know why Mr. Gu hadn’t been at the company these few days, but she was the one who arranged his itinerary and there had been no business trips scheduled.
The only plausible explanation would be personal matters.
And they must have been very important personal matters, otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed away from the company for so long.
Although Xia Xiaoqiao was very curious, it wasn’t proper to inquire carelessly—after all, it was someone else’s privacy.
But this matter was like a feather, occasionally stirring her heart.
Xia Xiaoqiao glanced at her attire through the glass door and was very pleased with herself—a white bodycon dress, straight legs, mild makeup, looking both sexy and just right.
She knocked on the door of the CEO’s Office and then walked in, holding a cup of lukewarm water in her hand, which she gently placed on the table.
“Mr. Gu, I have placed the documents for you to process on your desk,” Xia Xiaoqiao stood in front of Gu Shaoting, her voice as gentle as water.
“Hmm, I know, Secretary Xia, from today on you will be transferred to the administrative department, and a notice will come down later,” Gu Shaoting said indifferently.
