At noon, Gu Qingxin received a phone call from the driver. Beiming Han had ordered to pick her up and bring her to Sheng Ming Corporation, but Gu Qingxin said she was busy and promptly hung up the phone.
After lunch in the cafeteria, Gu Qingxin and Bai Qianqian went to the workshop together to start making a shirt for Beiming Han.
Since it was a gift from Gu Qingxin to Beiming Han, Bai Qianqian naturally couldn’t interfere. It would be more meaningful if she finished it independently.
So, Bai Qianqian found some leftover fabric and DIYed a beautiful backpack within the lunch break.
In the afternoon, a classmate came to find Gu Qingxin, saying that the principal was looking for her.
When she arrived at the principal’s office, the principal got up immediately to greet her when he saw her, invited her in with a pleasant look, and personally poured tea for her.
His attitude had done a complete 180 from before.
“Principal, you wanted to see me?”
“Oh, yes. The Sheng Ming Corporation’s office just called and said that the funds for this competition have been allocated. We need to send a student to collect it.” The principal said with a gentle expression.
“Shouldn’t the student council president be handling this?”
“That would be the case, but things are different now. The fashion design competition targets your design department, so, it is better if someone from your department goes, don’t you think?” If the principal didn’t know what was up, then he wouldn’t have made it this far as a principal.
“There are many outstanding seniors in the Design Department…”
“Miss Gu, since you are acquainted with the person in charge of Sheng Ming Corporation, it’s more appropriate for you to go.”
“Miss Gu, don’t decline. I have already arranged for a school car to wait for you outside.”
Gu Qingxin figured she might as well go, given that this competition was related to the entire design department. She was just going to pick up a check. Sheng Ming Corporation was huge, so it was unlikely that she would run into Beiming Han.
Gu Qingxin convinced herself and soon the car arrived at Sheng Ming Building. Gu Qingxin got out of the car and walked in.
As soon as she stepped in, Lian Qingruo had already come to greet her, and laughing said, “Miss Gu, please follow me.”
“Um… Secretary, I’m here on behalf of the school to collect the funds for the design competition.” Gu Qingxin hurried to explain, she wasn’t here to see Beiming Han.
“I know, just follow me.” Lian Qingruo personally led her to the CEO’s private elevator.
The arrival of the Chief Secretary of CEO’s office startled everyone, making them wonder who the young girl was.
Gu Qingxin was unfamiliar with the place and had no choice but to follow Lian Qingruo into the elevator. As she saw the numbers increasing, she couldn’t help but say, “Shouldn’t we go to the finance department to collect the money?”
“The funds for this competition were personally allocated by our CEO. The check is currently in the CEO’s office.” Lian Qingruo explained with a smile.
When Gu Qingxin arrived at the CEO’s office with Lian Qingruo, Beiming Han was not there. Lian Qingruo said he was in an important meeting.
Before the sofa was a tea table full of exquisite desserts and a glass of lemon juice.
“Miss Gu, please sit down. All of these were prepared for you as instructed by our CEO.” After finishing her words, Lian Qingruo retreated with a smile.
Gu Qingxin sat on the sofa, her eyes on the beautiful treats and the glass of lemon juice on the tea table, and her lips curled up unconsciously.
Inside the conference room.
Beiming Han’s gaze was fixed on the computer screen in front of him. Even when speaking with his managers, he didn’t shift his gaze away from the screen, his expression unconsciously softening….
