It was almost noon when Gu Shaoting looked at the time. Shu Pan was about to go for her lunch break. Just as he was calling her, his phone suddenly rang.
“Brother Gu, are you busy?” The caller’s voice was sweet and familiar, but Gu Shaoting couldn’t remember where he had heard it before.
“Um… You are…” Gu Shaoting tried to remember who the caller was but failed.
“It’s Charlene. Has Brother Gu forgotten about me?” The caller said, sounding very disappointed.
“Oh, it’s Miss Charlene. I’m so sorry. I just finished some work and am still a little concussed.” Gu Shaoting finally remembered that she was Mr. John’s daughter who was heading his way for an internship.
“Brother Gu, I’m booked on a flight to your place the day after tomorrow.” Charlene informed him.
Gu Shaoting sighed in his heart. He was in a difficult position because Mr. John was an important business partner and he couldn’t get out of doing him this favor.
“Okay, send me your flight information. I’ll send someone to pick you up.” Gu Shaoting said.
Charlene felt a little disappointed. Her Brother Gu was sending someone to pick her up instead of picking her up himself. But on second thought, it was understandable. After all, he was the CEO of a big company; he probably didn’t have the time.
But it was okay. She had plenty of time. When she arrived at his office and interacted with him every day, should she worry that he wouldn’t develop feelings for her?
At the thought of this, Charlene felt much better.
“Alright, I’ll have to trouble Brother Gu then.” Charlene hung up happily and immediately sent him her flight information.
She wished that time would pass more quickly so she could see her Brother Gu earlier.
She didn’t have any man as outstanding as Brother Gu around her. This was also the first time she was so interested in a man. He was someone who made her heart flutter.
She felt that he was the person she had been waiting for and that he was the right man for her.
She had waited for so long for him to appear. She must work hard and not miss out on him.
She had a chance as long as he wasn’t married. Even if he was, he could still get a divorce, right?
She was the master of her own destiny. Charlene secretly cheered herself on.
She was born into a good family and was outstanding herself. Her life had been smooth sailing without any setback. She considered winning over Gu Shaoting a challenge.
She had set herself the goal of success only. Failure wasn’t an option and the word “failure” had never been part of her vocabulary thus far.
Shortly after Gu Shaoting hung up the phone, he got a text message. He opened it and saw Charlene’s flight information.
He read the message, called his secretary into his office, and forwarded the message to him.
“Mr. Zhang, the message I’ve just forwarded to you… Check the flight arrival time and pick her up from the airport with the driver. I’ll also send you her phone number.” Gu Shaoting felt that he couldn’t afford to neglect Charlene. If anything happened to her, he wouldn’t be able to explain himself to Mr. John. “Okay and she is?” Mr. Zhang clicked on the message and knew that it was a woman when he saw the name. He could not help but frown.
He didn’t think that this woman was in some kind of secret relationship with Gu Shaoting. After all, he had worked for Gu Shaoting for so long and knew that he wasn’t a playboy.
Moreover, he had just proposed to his ex-wife. They were still in the honeymoon stage of their relationship and he wouldn’t do such b*stardly things.
“She’s the daughter of our French partner , Mr. John. She wanted to do an internship here. Let her learn from you when she’s here. Don’t give her access to any important documents though. Some things are proprietary information after all.” After Gu Shaoting finished, he got ready to meet Shu Pan for lunch.
“I understand, CEO Gu. I’ll definitely do the job well.” Mr. Zhang promised.
“Good. I knew that you will because if you don’t, we still need people to develop our business in Africa.” Gu Shaoting patted his shoulder and said with a smile.
Mr. Zhang’s face darkened. This was another thankless assignment, sob….
