"You've always been very capable and aloof, and you've always been dismissive of friendship and the like. Why do I feel like you're starting to value this now?"
"That's right. I used to think friendship was something I didn't need. Since I wanted to go further and further on the road of revenge, I should be alone and gradually develop a cold personality. But as time went on, I realized that this state of mind wasn't suitable for me. On the one hand, it's impossible to accomplish great things alone. I definitely need the support of friends. On the other hand, I also long for true friends."
Ye Chenxing smiled and said, "It seems that this incident has taught you a lot of truths. Now I think you have really turned a disaster into a blessing."
Guo Panfu looked ahead while driving, revealing a mocking smile: "My mother and I used to depend on each other for survival. I always wanted to be her pride, but now I have let her down, so I must have better grades and make her proud of me again."
"I think that for parents, no matter what their children are like, they will always be their pride, because they are their own children after all. But what you think is not unreasonable. People in this world definitely want to go further and climb higher. If you become better, your mother will definitely be more proud of you." Ye Chenxing smiled.
After finishing this matter, Guo Panfu immediately returned home. She took out her cell phone and called her assistant.
"Assistant Lin, have you checked everything I asked you to check?"
"We have some clues, but it hasn't been thoroughly investigated yet. Mr. Guo still needs to wait." Assistant Lin replied.
"How long will it take?"
"It's hard to say. After all, when investigating something like this, we still have to be very careful, so I'm not sure myself."
Guo Panfu pondered for a moment, then asked, "Now tell me what you have investigated."
"I haven't investigated anything specific yet, but what I can confirm is that all the projects you asked me to investigate share a common characteristic: they're related to Madam Guo. It seems like Madam Guo has her own plans, but I don't know what they are specifically."
Assistant Lin paused and suddenly stopped talking.
When Guo Panfu heard that she was silent for a long time, she knew that he must have some concerns.
"It's okay. You've been with me for many years, right? In this company, you're the person I trust the most. Just speak up."
"I'm not just speculating, I think Mrs. Guo must be up to something, otherwise she wouldn't be so sneaky."
"You're quite sensitive. I won't say anything to you. Although this matter hasn't been concluded yet, this possibility is very high. You're not wrong."
"Mr. Guo, you want to..."
Guo Panfu hissed and then said, "Don't publicize this matter for now. Only a few people know about it. You and I are the only ones in the company. You must not make this matter public. I only revealed this to you because I trust you. Please don't let me down."
Assistant Lin paused, then said, "Mr. Guo, I've been with you for many years. Once I've decided on someone, I won't change. And I think Mr. Guo is an ambitious man. After going through setbacks, he will definitely become more wise and tenacious. I don't think I've made the right choice."
"Since you trust me so much, I have no reason to neglect you any longer. I will definitely not let you down."
"Mr. Guo, you're too kind. This is what I should do as a subordinate."
She finally got a vacation, even though it was because of important matters, but now she should still relax. Only after a good rest can she fight for a long time.
So she decided to have a good sleep. She hadn't slept in for a long time.
I plan to have a good sleep, and then get up and make myself a delicious meal.
I don’t know if it was because she had been working for a long time and was overworked, but this time she actually slept until night.
Guo Panfu quickly got up, took a deep breath, then went to the kitchen to make herself a simple dinner.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang. Guo Panfu was puzzled and thought it must be her mother, because she didn't have many friends and her mother was the only one who came to her house.
She hurried over to open the door. The moment she opened it, she was greeted by a smiling face and then called out "Mom".
But when she looked up, she felt very embarrassed.
"Why...why is it you?" At that moment, Guo Panfu's brain froze.
"After not seeing each other for a day, I have become your mother? This joke seems a bit too much." Zheng Tianhang said jokingly.
"No... I'm sorry, I was too reckless. I started shouting before I even saw the person clearly. Mainly because my mom was the only one who came to my house, and basically no one else came, so I felt a little uncomfortable with you coming to my house suddenly."
"You have to get used to it in the future, because I will come to your house often." Zheng Tianhang smiled and said.
"Ah?" Guo Panfu's brain froze again.
What on earth did this man mean by that? What did he mean by saying he would come often and I should get used to it?
"No, I don't seem to understand what you said." Guo Panfu asked blankly.
"It means exactly what it says. You are alone at home, and I am alone at home too. We happen to live in the same community, so we can support each other when we have time." Zheng Tianhang said.
"But are you going to make me stand at the door and not let me in? Look, I'm holding something in my hand." After saying that, he raised the thing in his hand and shook it.
The thing Zheng Tianhang was holding was delicately crafted and looked very small and cute.
Only then did Guo Panfu realize that she had made him stand at the door for a long time without letting him in.
"Sorry... please come in."
Zheng Tianhang walked in and looked at the environment of his home.
"Your decoration style really suits your temperament, it's capable and simple." Zheng Tianhang said with a smile.
"It definitely has a lot to do with people. I don't really like fancy decorations. As long as it doesn't look so shabby, it's fine." Guo Panfu explained with a smile, then poured Zheng Tianhang a glass of water.
"Here, this is a gift for you." After saying that, he handed it to Guo Panfu.
Guo Panfu took the small and exquisite gift curiously, and then looked at it carefully. It turned out to be a small cake.
Guo Panfu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She looked at Zheng Tianhang and said, "Why did you buy me a cake? Actually, I don't really like sweets. Eating too much sweets makes people feel sick."
"This cake is very famous now. I tried it and it's really lightly sweet but not greasy, and has a very refreshing fragrance. I think you should like it."
