Gu Sheng was 40 years old this year. Although he had inherited the Gu family’s excellent genes, he was pampered too much by Old Master Gu. He had been whoring around all these years and now his eyes always looked gloomy. His cheeks were sunken and his body was as thin as a bamboo, as if he could
fall down with two steps.
‘When he saw Gu Shen come over, he threw down the document in his hand. “I finally see you, Gu Shen. Did the Gu family teach you to make your senior wait? Did you forget about all the etiquettes?”
Gu Shen explained calmly, “I was having a meeting just now.”
“Never mind, why should I bicker with a cripple like you?” Gu Sheng smiled maliciously. “You useless piece of trash. Can you even live alone?”
Gu Shen gripped the wheelchair tightly. “Why are you here today, Uncle? There are a lot of things happening in the Gu Electronics and Hotel recently, so I don’t have much time to entertain you.”
Gu Sheng was unhappy when he heard that. He sneered and raised his pitch.
“Are you trying to kick me out? Now I believe what Gu Ling said about you slapping her on the face. Do you really think you are powerful and almighty after getting these two lousy companies?”
Gritting his teeth, Gu Er couldn’t wait to go up and give a punch to his face.
Gu Shen smiled and deliberately toned down his attitude. “Uncle, you must be making fun of me. Aren’t you the one who didn’t want these two companies? As for Aunt, if she didn’t attack my wife, I wouldn’t punish her. After all is said and done, she brought this upon herself.”
“Does that mean you really abused Gu Ling?”
“Uncle, I’m not as capable as you say. You should ask her husband about what happened.”
When Gu Sheng heard that, he snorted. “I don’t think a cripple like you can bully anyone. I can tell you’ve been getting ambitious lately. You’d better be careful with what you say and do. Otherwise, you’ll bring disaster on yourself.”
“You are right, Uncle.”
“Remember what I said.” Gu Sheng’s eyes were cold. After saying what he had to say, Gu Sheng got down from the desk and walked out the door with a hunched back.
As Gu Shen watched him leave the room, a coldness flashed across his eyes. “Spread the news that Gu Sheng has been here. Also, send someone to tell Gu Ling that Gu Sheng wants to sell her shares.”
Gu Er was puzzled. “CEO, what do you mean?”
The room temperature seemed to have dropped a few degrees as Gu Shen replied, “They’ve been on the board of directors for long enough. It’s time for them to get lost.”
“Copy that.”
“By the way, I’m going to Hai City on a business trip tomorrow. Tell Yan Xi about my schedule.” Gu Shen paused for a moment and said, “Send a list of local delicacies in Hai City as well.”
Gu Er quickly understood. “Master, do I have to include shopping centers as well.”
A smile flashed across Gu Shen’s lips. “No need. Just the food.” He could tell that Yan Xi loved to eat. From time to time, a few pieces of candies or potato chips and yogurt would appear in his study room.
He added, “She likes food.”
Gu Er nodded.
He didn’t expect to be fed dog food even when Madam wasn’t present.
Yan Xi was bored to death as she lay on her bed and scrolled through her phone. Suddenly she received three texts from Gu Er, one was Gu Shen’s schedule, one was a picture, and the last one was a message, saying, “Madam, Master is going to Hai City on a business trip tomorrow. This is the list of local
delicacies he asked me to prepare for you.”
Business trip?
So sudden?
Yan Xi sat up on the bed and thought about it carefully. This seemed to be the first time Gu Shen had gone on a business trip in such a long time. Hai City and Yan City were still several cities away, so it was impossible for him to return on the same day.
Thinking of how she would not be able to see Gu Shen for the next few days, she felt that something was wrong.
“Madam, why are you sighing?” Xiaoyue leaned over and looked at her eagerly.
Yan Xi poked her head with her fingertips, then lay on the bed. “Gu Shen is going on a business trip. I am sad that I won’t be able to see him for many days.”
Back in her previous life, Yan Xi had already found needy girls detestable, but now she became one of them after she met Gu Shen.
Xiaoyue was calm. “Master will definitely miss you, so he’ll rush back immediately after finishing his business. So you don’t have to worry.”
Yan Xi was amused. “Why are you so sure about that?”
“Of course, everyone can tell that. Otherwise, when he was told that you were sick, he wouldn’t rush back before finishing his work.”
Yan Xi’s eyes lit up. She rubbed her face. “Is that so? Am I so important to him?”
Xiaoyue was speechless..
