Gu Shaoting continued to sit in the conference room after he ended his call with Shu Pan.

He was waiting for an important phone call.

To be exact, he was waiting for an answer. He had reached out to the other person but there had been no reply.

Half an hour later, the call finally came.

“Alright, see you tomorrow.” There was finally a smile on Gu Shaoting’s somber face.

He hoped that the meeting will be fruitful.

The following day, Gu Shaoting didn’t go to the office early as usual. He was dressed casually in a blue V-neck sweater and khakis, looking friendlier than usual.

He asked Mr. Zhang to go back to the office to settle some matters while he went to meet this important person. He needed help.

He wasn’t going to this person’s office this time, but his home. Gu Shaoting brought gifts and rang the doorbell of this man’s home. It was obvious that this man was rich when he owned a villa that was worth more than a hundred million yuan at this location in such a city.

Not long after, a white figure approached Gu Shaoting from afar. “Surprise, Brother Gu.” Charlene answered the door.

Gu Shaoting was mentally prepared to see Charlene when he visited Mr. John at home. After all, she had just returned to the country and wouldn’t be at work so soon.

However, he was still a little stunned.

“Hello,” Gu Shaoting said with reluctance. He didn’t actually want to see Charlene again after all the trouble she had caused him.

“Come in, my father is waiting for you.” Charlene said warmly, like they were best friends.

Charlene felt that the world was still relatively small. She thought that she would never see her Brother Gu again after coming back to France. She had even been depressed for a while over the fact.

Who would have predicted that her Brother Gu’s company would be in crisis and he would ask her father for help?

Life was indeed like a box of chocolates.

But this could be fate. Perhaps God wanted her to see him again?

Now that he was so far away from home, Shu Pan wouldn’t be able to control the events here.

Charlene brought Gu Shaoting to her father’s study with a smile.

“Shaoting, long time no see.”

“Mr. John, long time no see. How have you been?” Gu Shaoting said in return.

“Very well. We haven’t seen each other for more than half a year. I’m so sorry that we are meeting under such circumstances.” John said in a regretful tone.

“Yes, the situation is rather bad this time around, but it isn’t hopeless. Fortunately, we discovered the problem in time.” Gu Shaoting felt grateful.

“Hmm, what are your plans? Or how can I help? Your overseas business is doing very well, so many people want a share of it.” John was very familiar with Gu Shaoting’s company. After all, the business circle wasn’t that big.

“I know, Mr. John. I hope you can finance me. What I lack now is funds. I’ve already mobilized some funds from headquarters but I’m still short.” Gu Shaoting’s eyes were pleading. “Mr. John, don’t worry. I’ll pay you back with interest.”

Gu Shaoting also understood that businessmen valued profits.

“Look, this is our restructuring plan. I won’t let your money go to waste.” Gu Shaoting was fully prepared.

Mr. John hesitated for a moment. After all, it was Gu Shaoting asking. The amount wouldn’t be small.

He was afraid that he wouldn’t get his money back, but they were business partners. So, he could always think of it as an advanced payment.

“Can I think about it?” John felt that he should still consider it carefully.
