In the blink of an eye, two months had passed.
During these two months, Gu Yilin had returned to his busy state. The Crown Prince of the Empire, the new generation of nobles in the business world. He had a large amount of work to do every day.
In the Gu Corporation, Gu Yilin was wearing a well-tailored black suit. He walked over with steady steps. Beside him was his personal secretary, followed by a group of company executives with blue tags hanging around their necks, the group of people walked toward the VIP meeting room, preparing to hold a high-level meeting.
The personal secretary handed over a document. Gu Yilin looked down with his handsome eyes and focused on it. At this moment, the dazzling morning light was reflected through the floor-to-ceiling window of the Gu Corporation. Every step he took was dazzling and charming, his aura was powerful.
When he reached the entrance of the meeting room, there was a huge LCD thin screen hanging on the wall of the meeting room. At this moment, a financial news was playing on the screen.
The host, Chung Ying, was reporting,
—— it was reported that the star plan app, which had been the focus of the business world, had been officially listed in Los Angeles. After being listed for a week, the company’s stock had been blocked, and various big shots were fighting for it. The market value of the star plan app had soared, and the founder of the star plan app, Xia Xiaodie, had become the beautiful CEO of the world’s attention.
– Xia Xiaodie, 19 years old, post-doctoral double-talent, Genius Girl. Before she graduated, she caused an uproar with her thesis in the digital economy era. Later, she became famous in the Summit Forum.
– Xia Xiaodie’s sudden appearance undoubtedly had a huge impact on the real economy. Her star plan app launched the first company’s Yellow Pages. It successfully integrated the digital network and freedom of trade. Global Daily, the economic overseas news and other major authoritative newspapers were reporting on the launch of Star Plan overnight, and all the media cameras were focused on this beautiful 19-year-old CEO, Xia Xiaodie.
As she spoke, the super-large LCD screen switched to a screen. It was surrounded by a dense crowd of reporters. Everyone rushed forward as if they had been injected with stimulants, but the three floors inside and outside were filled with security guards and cordoned-off lines, soon, the door of the business building opened and a group of people walked out.
Xia Xiaodie was clustered at the front. At that time, Xia Xiaodie was wearing a lady’s black coat. Her pure black hair was tied into a ponytail. Inside her was a pink dress with a bow, only her side profile was captured. Her beautiful side profile was bathed in the brilliant morning sun that had just risen in Los Angeles. It was indescribably beautiful and magnificent.
Some reporters wanted to conduct an interview, but they were all blocked by Xia Xiaodie’s private secretary, Wen Jing. “I’m sorry, our President doesn’t accept any interviews.”
The driver respectfully opened the back door of the luxury car, and Xia Xiaodie disappeared from everyone’s sight.
“President…”
At this moment, the secretary’s low voice rang in his ears. Gu Yilin only then retracted his gaze from the LCD screen. He looked at the secretary. “What’s Wrong?”
The secretary was covered in sweat and stammered, “President, it’s time to go in for the meeting.”
The momentary daze in the depths of Gu Yilin’s eyes slowly returned to clarity. He nodded without any emotion, “Go in.”
..
In the VIP high-level meeting, the finance director was carrying out this extreme financial report. Everyone sat upright and solemnly, then secretly glanced at the man in the main seat.
Everyone was keenly aware that the president was not in a good mood. Although he was calm, his entire person was exceptionally silent. This oppressive atmosphere made everyone’s scalps go numb, and they did not even dare to breathe loudly.
“President, there’s something I need to discuss with you,”the deputy manager said.
Gu Yilin raised his handsome eyelids and looked at the deputy manager with his dark narrow eyes. “Speak.”
The deputy manager handed over a business proposal, “President, I believe you’ve heard about it. Recently, the beautiful CEO of the Xia Group’s Star Plan app has appeared out of nowhere. At first, many people remained skeptical and neutral towards the new trends of the digital economy era, including our company. However, the appearance of the Star Plan app has undoubtedly announced that the era of the digital economy has really arrived under Xia Xiaodie’s leadership.”
“Right now, all the big shots are trying to cooperate with the Xia Group. The shares of the Xia group are huge and the momentum is too strong. In private, we all think, should we cooperate with the Xia Group?”
Gu Yilin’s narrow eyes were dark and bottomless. No one could see through his thoughts. He only frowned slightly and did not speak immediately.
“President,”the deputy manager called out anxiously.
Gu Yilin stood up. “Do what you have to do.”
He left the VIP meeting room.
..
In the President’s office.
The private secretary walked in and looked carefully at the man sitting on the black leather chair. “President, the people below are already contacting the Xia Corporation.”
Gu Yilin lowered his eyes and with a pen in his hand, he signed his name on the document. He did not raise his head and only snorted lightly. “Mm.”
“President, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first.”
The personal secretary turned around and was about to leave.
“Wait a moment,”gu Yilin suddenly said.
The personal secretary stopped and looked at Gu Yilin. Gu Yilin was still reading the document and did not show much expression. “Have you contacted… Her?”
Her?
Who Was this she?
The personal secretary knew that this was Xia Xiaodie.
“President, two months ago, I contacted Miss Xia according to your instructions. Miss Xia agreed to the material compensation that you offered and did not reject it. However, Miss Xia did not touch those things from the beginning to the end.”
Gu Yilin’s hand that was holding the pen slowly stopped. “Where did the working capital for the Star Plan app’s listing come from?”
“President, it is reported that Miss Xia has entered the stock market. I have to say that Miss Xia has a keen sense of numbers and the economy. Of course, the working capital is too huge, so with the help of Dr. Han and Dr. Wei, Miss Xia borrowed a loan from the bank.”
She went to borrow a loan, but she did not take a single cent from him.
She quietly disappeared into his world. Just like on the day of his wedding, she said on the phone that she would not disturb his life in the future, and she would never appear in front of him again.
Gu Yilin threw the pen on the table, then leaned his straight back into the sofa seat. He lifted his slender fingers and unbuttoned a shirt button to ease the irritation in his heart. “Go out.”
The secretary saw that Gu Yilin’s expression was not right, so she quickly ran away.
Gu Yilin felt depressed and could not breathe. Soon, his thin lips curved into a mocking curve. He had promised not to appear in his life, but she was like this again, barging into his eyes without any warning.
She was so stunning and elegant.
She was living very well.
Without him, she was really living very, very well.
She could be considered a very qualified lover. If he had to give her a score, he could give her 101 points. She didn’t argue, didn’t make a fuss, didn’t ask for any compensation, and could even wish him happiness.
