It was not for anything else, but simply because the air pressure of their President Gu had been visibly dropping since the afternoon, and at this moment he was like a moving iceberg, his expression so cold that it was almost as if he had "Keep Out" carved on his face.
"Mr. Gu, this is the report for this quarter..."
The clerk handed over the document tremblingly. Gu Jinchen took it with a cold look, which scared the clerk so much that he thought he had done something wrong.
In fact, Gu Jinchen was thinking: Where did that woman Pei Qinghuan go all afternoon? Why didn't she reply to my messages? It's impossible. She's already an adult, could something happen to her?
The assistant just wanted to say: If Mr. Gu is really worried about his wife, why not just give her a call? It's okay to hand this routine meeting over to a subordinate. At this moment, the atmosphere is so freezing that it's better not to hold it...
Gu Jinchen just gave the assistant a glare and he shut his mouth tightly.
Call? Impossible. Wouldn't that reveal that he was worried about that woman? How could he possibly be worried about that woman...
Forget it, just beat one up, otherwise Mr. Gu will definitely come to hold me accountable.
That’s right, he was just doing it for Mr. Gu.
Gu Jinchen thought it through and felt much better. The staff only felt that the air pressure around them was not so low, and they felt much more relaxed.
"Let's stop here for now. The meeting is adjourned."
Gu Jinchen took his cell phone and went out seriously.
The staff felt as if a huge stone had been lifted from their hearts.
"Hoo, wait Assistant Wu, is Mr. Gu in a bad mood today?"
The assistant was stopped and looked embarrassed: "This should be."
The staff looked at each other in bewilderment. "Even Assistant Wu doesn't know about this. It seems that Mr. Gu must have run into some serious trouble."
"Yeah, Mr. Gu never has that kind of expression."
"Maybe I was introduced to a woman I didn't like for marriage. I've been urged to get married these past few days. Mr. Gu said he's not young anymore."
Assistant Wu had a complicated expression. Should he say that Mr. Gu was in a bad mood because his wife didn't reply to his message all afternoon?
Just as Gu Jinchen was about to make a call, he received a message from the other end, and he immediately turned on his phone.
Pei Qinghuan: "Sorry, I was busy all afternoon, so I didn't reply. The store is great, what's wrong?"
The last one he posted was at twelve o'clock: "How is the store doing lately?"
Gu Jinchen looked at the screen, not knowing what to reply for a moment.
What's wrong? Are you saying you're worried about her? How could that be possible?
There doesn't seem to be anything else.
The conversation couldn't continue.
Seeing that there was no reply from the other party, it seemed that he didn't say anything else.
Gu Jinchen thought for a long time and replied "OK".
So what happened to this woman that she was out of contact for an entire afternoon?
Never mind, they don't have much of a relationship anyway, at most they're a married couple...
But at least the nominal husband should be informed of the basic trends!
For some reason, Gu Jinchen felt a surge of anger in his chest that he had nowhere to vent. It was almost dinner time, but he had no appetite, so he went straight into the office. His assistant stood at the door, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
"Boss Gu, if you're really worried about Madam, I can check on her whereabouts this afternoon."
Gu Jinchen subconsciously refused: "No."
Assistant Wu said helplessly: "Mr. Gu, why don't you order takeout? You can't skip dinner. It's not good for your health."
Gu Jinchen held his forehead and said, "You won't starve to death if you skip a meal. There are still many contracts that haven't been processed. Can you help me get them all?"
Assistant Wu had no choice but to do it. The number of those contracts... It looked like Mr. Gu would be unable to sleep tonight.
So the next day, Gu Jinchen came to the company with dark circles under his eyes that showed fatigue, but the culprit Pei Qinghuan slept soundly and dreamlessly all night.
As soon as Pei Qinghuan went out, he saw his sister sitting on a lounge chair basking in the sun, looking so comfortable.
Pei Anan smiled when she saw her sister come out after packing up: "Sister, have you checked the store sales? They have increased again."
Pei Qinghuan's eyes lit up: "Really?"
She walked to the computer and looked at the data. The sales volume of the new product reached 100,000, and this did not include advertising.
She thought about it and said to Pei Anan: "In that case, let's put the other designs up there and do a pre-sale."
Pei Anan was puzzled: "Aren't the clothes already made? I saw a lot of them in my sister's workshop a few days ago."
Pei Qinghuan shook his head: "That is for Miss Su, Su Ningyue of the Su family, it's a big order."
Pei Anan was shocked: "Sister, when did you get on this? It's so powerful!"
Pei Qing laughed happily: "Sister, I'm not idle. I'm a young designer who changed my career halfway. Unlike those who graduated from a serious design school, I also thought about it for a long time before taking this shortcut."
Pei Anan praised: "But if sister is not outstanding, she will not be able to attract the Su family."
Pei Qinghuan touched her head and asked, "Are you blowing it because of your sister?"
"I am!"
Pei Qinghuan laughed: "By the way, I want to open a new store and hire a few more people to take care of it."
Pei An'an's eyes lit up: "Really? Then we are the bosses."
Pei Qing laughed: "Of course."
"By the way, An An, I've picked a few live streamers to promote our products these past few days, and I've already received cooperation news. With their help, our sales will be even greater, and we'll have to hire a few more people then."
Pei Anan nodded: "Then let me take care of hiring someone, sister, you can go and do something else."
