He pondered for a moment, "First, diminish the impact of the situation. If it can’t be controlled, I’ll personally explain to the media. I’ll call the old lady back, and not long after, I will personally go see her."
Obviously, this matter wasn’t easy to deal with, and Zhao Chen’s expression still wasn’t good. "President Gu, next time please notify me to handle such matters. If you had not been exposed, even if you had taken action, nobody would know who you were, but..."
But six years ago, President Gu had already been exposed to the public.
Even if he kept a low profile afterward, it could not withstand a group of his fans constantly boosting his presence.
"Such things are not serious, but the impact is too negative."
Zhao Chen also didn’t understand why he had been so impulsive, even going as far as to physically attack someone under a reporter’s camera.
In all the years he had been with the BOSS, he had never seen such a situation occur.
Even if someone were not calm, they would not act so recklessly.
"This incident isn’t minor either," Gu Annan said coldly, speaking casually.
"Could it be worse than being discovered fighting in the streets, President Gu?" Zhao Chen reminded, "In the future, you should use the method from last time, and not give anyone anything to talk about. We have plenty of methods to teach him a lesson."
He glanced at the assistant preaching earnestly.
"I spoke out of turn, President Gu..." Zhao Chen lowered his head, when was it his turn to lecture President Gu.
Even if there were a fault, it should be the teacher and the mistress who would do the scolding.
A trace of unnatural coldness appeared on Gu Annan’s face, and he still harbored some anger as he said after a long while, "At that moment, if I hadn’t taken matters into my own hands, I would have felt restless."
"..." Zhao Chen was suddenly dumbfounded.
It seemed as if there wasn’t even a hint of remorse in his words.
"Next time, if someone needs to be hit, I will still hit them," Gu Annan said coldly ,"Go inform them, there will be a video conference this afternoon, I will make them settle down."
Zhao Chen nodded, showing no sign of remorse.
As Zhao Chen was about to leave, he sincerely suggested, "President Gu, you really shouldn’t say what you just did in front of the old lady. She won’t appreciate it..."
"Nonsense, do I need you to teach me that!"
Gu Annan squinted his eyes and finally called his grandmother.
The voice on the other end of the phone was so angry that it gasped for air, leaving him no choice but to listen quietly.
It was all about how the grandmother couldn’t live much longer, and how she would lose face to meet his grandfather after her death.
And then about how, if he kept on , she wouldn’t be able to see her great-grandson before she passed away, and it would leave her with lifelong regret.
Gu Annan patiently listened to the end, finally saying, "Grandma, are you feeling better after scolding me?"
"You... You really are unrepentant, the grandmother can’t afford to lose this face. If you keep on , I will find a lawyer and sever ties with you."
"Then, Grandma, you really won’t see your great-grandson. If we sever ties, where would your great-grandson come from? Right, and your great-granddaughter, one great-grandson isn’t enough."
Hearing such words from him for the first time, the old lady, who was prepared to angrily hang up the phone after scolding, was stunned.
"Alright, Grandma, you should rest early. Your 90th birthday is coming up, and I’ll come back early to see you, I promise you’ll be satisfied. But before that, can you trust that your grandson will handle these matters?"
The elderly person on the end of the phone harrumphed fiercely, "You talk a good talk, but when you come back, I won’t see the great-grandson. That girl from the Shu Family is so nice..."
"Grandma, I have a very urgent meeting, so that’s it. We can talk next time I come back. Your health isn’t good, so make fewer phone calls, goodbye."
Gu Annan disconnected the call and was about to enter the dining room.
"Oh, President Gu," Zhao Chen came back, "About the investigation you mentioned last time into Miss Lu and Miss Shu’s news, there’s a result."
