Five years ago, by a twist of fate, she gave herself to a certain man. She lost her innocence and her identity, the position of the eldest daughter of the Jiang family was usurped, and overnight, s...
Wu Wei looked at the sailors respectfully, then politely extended his hand and made a gesture of invitation.
"I'll take you to meet our General Manager Gu now." Wu Wei said very professionally.
When Lao Du and the others heard that they were about to meet Gu Tingchen, they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Their faces were filled with excitement, with a faint blush on their faces. Wu Wei noticed their nervousness and anticipation.
Wu Wei just smiled and politely let them off the boat.
As soon as the four people got off the boat, it was like entering a whole new world, with everything they saw being filled with novelty.
There was excitement in their eyes, and they followed Wu Wei closely, as if they were afraid of getting lost, just like children who had just walked out of the house and dared not leave their parents for a single step.
Wu Wei just understood them and knew that they were like this because they had lived on the boat for a long time.
Because of this, Wu Wei did not show any expression of contempt towards them, but instead politely brought them to the building of Gu Group.
The receptionist saw Wu Wei leading a few dusty-looking people in from afar, and her eyes were immediately attracted. She stared at Lao Du and the others without blinking, but it was not the receptionist's fault, because those who could enter the Gu Group were all well-known figures, and people with this image had never appeared before.
Not only the front desk staff, but everyone else in the company also turned their attention to Lao Du and his team.
After all, this kind of farmer's image appeared in the Gu Group's building for the first time.
Realizing that everyone's eyes were on them, Lao Du and the others hung their heads in inferiority, not even daring to look up at anyone. Their timid looks made people feel distressed.
Wu Wei couldn't bear to watch it, and whispered to everyone in the company, "What's there to see?"
Everyone in the company was afraid of Wu Wei and his authority, so they immediately shut up.
"Don't be afraid, come with me, you will see Mr. Gu later." Wu Wei turned around and his attitude became very gentle, and the tension of Lao Du and others was immediately relieved a lot.
Wu Wei clearly saw Lao Du and A Rong looking at him with gratitude.
They soon arrived at the door of Gu Tingchen's office. Wu Wei stopped, extended his hand towards Lao Du and the others, made a gesture of invitation, and said politely, "Mr. Gu is inside, please go in."
Lao Du and A Rong nodded, opened the office door somewhat stiffly, and looked inside.
In front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, Gu Tingchen was wearing a black suit. He looked noble and cold, with a strong sense of alienation, as if he was keeping people at a distance. Lao Du and the others had never seen Gu Tingchen dressed like this before, and they were stunned for a moment.
Seeing them standing there in silence, Gu Tingchen smiled softly, "Why, you don't recognize me after just a few hours of separation?"
Lao Du and the others smiled awkwardly, but the hands holding the corners of their clothes fully exposed their restraint and uneasiness at the moment.
"Mr. Gu..."
Lao Du wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Seeing his awkward look, Gu Tingchen smiled helplessly, "Wasn't Lao Du very eloquent before? Why aren't you so eloquent now?"
Seeing that Lao Du couldn't explain the situation for a long time, A Rong became a little anxious and began to defend Lao Du.
"Mr. Gu, Lao Du has never met a big shot like you in his life, so he is a little nervous." A Rong has always been outspoken and made Gu Tingchen laugh with just one sentence.
Gu Tingchen sat on a chair and motioned for them to sit down on the sofa next to him.
Several people were stunned. After they understood what Gu Tingchen meant, they obediently did as Gu Tingchen asked, looking as obedient and well-behaved as little children.
"I don't understand this. We have clearly been together for quite some time, and this isn't the first day you've known me." Gu Tingchen found it magical. How could these people not recognize him and feel distant from him just because they saw that he had changed his clothes?
Old Du seemed to have calmed down a bit at this point, but his gaze was still somewhat averted from Gu Tingchen. "We've been together for a long time, but this is the first time I've seen you dressed like this. I immediately felt like you were a big boss."
"Don't be like this. I hope we can treat me as one of yourselves just like we did on the boat. I haven't experienced such pure friendship for a long time." Gu Tingchen's face suddenly became serious.
Those deep eyes stared at Lao Du and the others, as if seriously declaring that what he had just said was sincere and not false. This expression further proved that Gu Tingchen cherished this friendship.
Old Du's gaze suddenly relaxed as he looked at Gu Tingchen.
It was this sentence that made Lao Du feel that Gu Tingchen had not changed. He was still the Mr. Gu on the boat who could chat with them about everything. He did not turn his back on them just because he came ashore and put on a suit and tie.
At this moment, Lao Du was convinced that he had not misjudged the person.
"Okay, then we won't be polite. We'll treat it the same as when we were on the boat." Lao Du grinned. Having a friend like Gu Tingchen was like finding a treasure for Lao Du.
The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, and even Lao Du's sitting posture became a little unrestrained.
Seeing this, the originally reserved Ah Rong relaxed his posture. "That's right. We are all good friends. Good friends should relax when they are together, right?"
This sentence opened up everyone's chatterbox. Gu Tingchen said with a hint of dissatisfaction: "You guys actually think I'm that kind of person. Am I that kind of person? Ungrateful?"
"No, I never thought you were that kind of person. I just think that guys like us are not worthy of being your friends. Ultimately, it's because we are too inferior to you." Lao Du said with some shame, lowering his head in shame.
As soon as he finished speaking, A Rong exposed Lao Du's past without giving him any face and said, "Lao Du, you only know how to make up lies. Did you really never doubt Mr. Gu? After he got off the boat, you greeted Mr. Gu, but he didn't reply. Your face fell at that time."
As soon as A Rong said this, Lao Du's face turned even redder. It was obvious that A Rong was not talking nonsense and directly hit Lao Du's sore spot.
Gu Tingchen was not angry, but just smiled helplessly: "You guys think too coldly of me, Gu Tingchen."
"No matter what time, I will never disown you as my friends, because you are not only my friends, but also my saviors." Gu Tingchen said with gratitude.
