Chapter 500 : An Invitation
Xiaoyu looked up and thought for a moment. She then looked at the time and said, āHeās probably in. I wasnāt paying attention.ā
Charlene smiled and then asked, āDo you get many opportunities to go into the CEOās office?ā
āNot really because Mr. Zhang is usually the one who interacts with CEO Gu.ā Xiaoyu replied with an incredulous expression on her face.
āI see.ā Charlene was lost in thought.
She needed to think of a way to get close to Brother Gu. How else would she win him over?
Charlene looked at the time. It was 9:30; her Brother Gu should have arrived in his office.
She straightened her clothes, picked up a notebook and walked towards the CEOās office.
āKnock, knockā¦ā Gu Shaoting was startled when he heard the knock on the door because he was saying sweet nothings to Shu Pan.
Shu Pan also heard the knock on the end of the call, so she found an excuse and hung up.
āPlease come inā¦ā Gu Shaoting said in an annoyed tone because he didnāt appreciate the interruption.
āBrother Gu, is this a bad time?ā Charlene carefully poked her head in.
āItās fine. Come in.ā Gu Shaoting suppressed his annoyance when he saw that it was Charlene.
āBrother Gu, my presence here has troubled you.ā Charlene said politely like a submissive little wife. She believed in the saying āone step back today for two steps forward tomorrowā.
āNot at all. If thereās anything you donāt understand, just ask. I asked Mr. Zhang to supervise you because Iām quite busy and not always in the office.ā Gu Shaotingās words made sense.
Charlene stood beside Gu Shaotingās desk, all tall and charming with her beautiful, fair skin. Her every move exuded the elegance of a wealthy young miss. At this moment, her beautiful eyes were wandering with excitement.
But no matter what her expression and thoughts were, Gu Shaoting seemed indifferent because he was thinking where he should take Shu Pan for lunch later.
They worked at different companies at different locations and Shu Pan was busy with Joy when they were home. They didnāt really get much couple time.
Therefore, their two-hour lunch break was precious.
āBrother Gu, I have a few questions for you, but I donāt want to disturb you at work. Is lunchtime today convenient for you? Letās have lunch together.ā Charleneās invitation sounded so legit that it was difficult to decline. Gu Shaoting wanted to tell her to cut to the chase but held back when he saw her eager eyes.
He also thought about how he hadnāt yet welcomed her after she touched down on this foreign land.
āAlright, let me get some work done first. Please ask Mr. Zhang to come along.ā Gu Shaoting thought that having his secretary at their lunch would be better. He would ask Shu Pan for her opinion later.
āThanks, Brother Gu. I shanāt disturb you anymore.ā Charlene was so happy that she wanted to dance. She didnāt expect things to go so smoothly. As for Mr. Zhang, he would probably be too busy to join them later.
After Charlene finished, she politely left Gu Shaotingās office.
Gu Shaoting finally had his peace. He shrugged as he wondered what young girls nowadays were thinking.
He got down to work.
It was almost noon when Gu Shaoting looked at the time. He called Shu Pan.
āWifey, what are you doing? Come to my office. Weāll have lunch together.ā Gu Shaoting said as soon as the call was connected.
āAll that running around is too much trouble. Iāll just find something to eat my office cafeteria.ā Shu Pan was reluctant.
āA friend has just arrived and itās a welcome lunch.ā Gu Shaoting said awkwardly.
Shu Pan thought that Gu Shaoting was referring to one of his male friends, so she didnāt take it to heart. ššæeešš²šÆš§ošel.šoš
