In addition to the seafood fried rice, there was also cheese lobster, seafood soup, and scream scallop.
Gu Shen didn’t eat much of the other foods, but he finished the seafood fried rice Yan Xi made.
After dinner, Yan Xi pushed Gu Shen back to his room. The moment they entered the elevator, Gu Shen said, “Go to the study room. I have something to give you.”
“What is it?”
“A letter of appointment.”
Yan Xi was even more puzzled. “Are you going to offer me a position? Where and what?”
“Go and see for yourself.”
In the study room, Gu Shen took out a document from the safe under the desk and handed it to her.
Yan Xi looked down and was surprised. This was actually the letter of appointment for the position of a senior executive in the Gu Corp.
Gu Shen explained calmly, “The proposal that you gave me before is enough to prove that you have the talent for financial management. So, you deserve this. As long as you are willing, you can take up the job tomorrow.”
The salary and working hours were tempting, but they also brought a lot of trouble.
Putting aside Old Master Gu and the uncles of the Gu family, some of the employees would also be displeased with her showing up all of a sudden in the Gu Corp as a senior executive.
Besides, the most important thing now was to treat Gu Shen’s leg. Everything else was secondary.
“I don’t want to take this job.” Yan Xi said frankly, “Gu Shen, though the conditions are very tempting, they are not what I want.”
“Reason?”
“Twon’t have a right to speak and decide.”
“Why? You want the Gu Corp’s shares?” Gu Shen looked at her with interest.
Yan Xi did not feel embarrassed. “Yes, I do.”
He could not do that now, but he was already planning to kick those good-for-nothings out of the board of directors. If Yan Xi could showcase her ability and lead the Gu Corporation to greater heights, then it was only right for her to obtain shares.
However, Gu Shen did not tell her about it. “Don’t worry, this position will always be yours for the taking. There is no deadline.”
“Okay!” Yan Xi nodded. Then she suddenly thought of something. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. “Gu Shen, do you still remember that you promised me a wish before?”
Gu Shen thought for a moment and remembered it. Back then, he said that as long as the proposal satisfied him, he would agree to one of her wishes. Now, it was time for her to ask for it.
Gu Shen’s eyes were gentle. “Tell me, what do you want?”
“It’s very simple. Promise me first.” Yan Xi squatted down and lay on Gu Shen’s lap.
At the sight of her fair skin and pretty face, Gu Shen subconsciously looked away. “I promise you.”
“Kiss me.” Yan Xi pointed at her cheek. “Right here. Come on, I was always the one kissing you. Nowit’s your tum.”
Gu Shen felt inexplicably nervous when he heard that, his hands gripping the wheelchair tightly in a bid to release anxiety.
He pursed his lips slightly and felt as if every cell in his body was screaming. Yan Xi leaned very close to him, so close that as long as he lowered his head an inch, he would kiss her.
However, his body froze. He clearly wanted to kiss, but he couldn’t manage moving his head as if it weighed a thousand pounds.
After a long while, Gu Shen was about to move his head and kiss her beautiful face.
The lovey-dovey vibe was suddenly broken by the vibration of Yan Xi’s phone.
Gu Shen cleared his throat and pinched the space between his eyebrows to calm himself.
Yan Xi quickly took out her phone and realized that it was actually a call from Zhou Xu. The two of them had always been chatting on social media, and this was the first time he called her.
Afraid that she might miss something important, Yan Xi quickly answered the call. A young man was heard speaking on the other end of the line.
“Hello, Miss Yan. I’m the person who talked to you on the medical forum. I’m very interested in the case you brought up. Do you have time to talk about it in detail?”
Knowing that the call was from a man, Gu Shen stared at her phone with a solemn expression.
“Who is he?”
Yan Xi chatted for a short while before hanging up the phone. She explained to Gu Shen, ‘It’s the doctor from Huadong Hospital, Zhou Xu. He’s very impressive and has some achievements in neurology..” After a pause, she asked tentatively, “Gu Shen, do you want him to reevaluate your leg? What if the
situation is different..”
