Chapter 44 - 44 Embarrassing Welcome
44 Embarrassing Welcome
In order to make it easier for Gu Lian to travel, the business car specially removed the seats in the back row. The elevator board installed was convenient for Gu Lian to move up and down. This was also a change requested by Mo Yu.
According to Gu Lian’s proud personality, he probably would not allow anyone to see him in a sorry state.
In fact, Gu Lian did not mind this. It was only a matter of time before he stood up. Now that he had already woken up, it was enough to intimidate the outside world. Gu Lian did not care if he appeared in front of others, sitting or standing, but when he saw all the things Mo Yu had prepared for him, it would be a lie to say that he was not touched.
Sometimes, Gu Lian really suspected that this Mo Yu was still the person who abused him and stabbed him with a needle in the past. Or could it be that everything was just an illusion he had imagined?
Looking at Mo Yu’s back as she jumped in front, Gu Lian’s eyes darkened. He still planned to observe her for a while.
Mo Yu was unaware of all of this. She did her best to play the role of Gu Lian’s follower.
Along the way, when Gu Lian drank water, she praised Gu Lian’s Adam’s apple for being sexy. When Gu Lian looked at his hand, she praised Gu Lian’s hand for being slender and beautiful and that it was obvious that he was a person who would achieve great things. Even when Gu Lian sat still in a daze, Mo Yu praised his eyes for being bright.
Gu Lian was praised by her all the way. On the surface, he said that she was “noisy”, but in fact, the corners of his mouth were almost raised to the sky.
Mo Yu also smiled. Who wouldn’t like to look at handsome men? Moreover, this handsome man was very rich. If she praised him now, there would be many opportunities to rip him off in the future.
The Gu family’s driver drove very steadily and arrived at the company building not long after. Today, Gu Lian came to the company not only to confirm the business situation, but also to hold a shareholders’ meeting. He did not plan to wait any longer and directly reshuffled the cards.
On the way here, Gu Lian had contacted his assistant and secretary. In the three years that he had been unconscious, Gu Chen had planted many of his people in important positions. Fortunately, he still had his secretary and assistant to support him so that his power would not fall into the hands of others.
When he arrived downstairs, the secretary’s report was almost over. Gu Lian was about to hang up when he was stopped. He looked at the secretary on the screen and waited for her to tell him the reason.
“Ahem, it’s like this, President Gu. Everyone has received the news that you’re coming to the company with Madam. Many people might come out later. If you mind, I’ll pass the message and ask them to not send that many people.”
Gu Lian fell silent. He remembered that when he first went to the company, many people came to see him.
However, as time passed, most of the employees gave him the nickname ‘Cold-faced Hades’, and not many people dared to look at him so blatantly. However, after being unconscious for three years, did they become bolder?
Mo Yu, who was at the side, nodded and agreed quickly. She was really curious about the base camp of this big shot. In the original novel, it was described as extremely luxurious. Mo Yu wanted to see it with her own eyes and did not care how many people came to see her.
Moreover, if she remembered correctly, the day Gu Lian returned to show his face in the original novel was especially grand. She was really curious about what the scene mentioned in the book was like.
Seeing her like this, Gu Lian could only agree. However, he had a bad feeling.
Nothing major should happen, right? Gu Lian comforted himself.
Reality proved that Gu Lian was still too naive. As the car slowly stopped, the moment the driver got out and opened the door for him, Gu Lian began to regret not stopping Mo Yu from agreeing to the assistant’s request.
The car did not stop at the main entrance. Instead, it stopped in the garden.
In front of him was a hundred-meter-long red carpet with flower bouquets on both sides. Standing there were the core members of the company. The men were in suits and leather shoes, and the women were in long dresses and gowns. All of them were dressed beautifully, as if they could walk the red carpet and crush all the celebrities in the next second.
The moment the car door opened, they shouted in unison.
“Welcome back, President Gu!”
At this moment, Gu Lian wanted to die. He did not say a word, his eyes only looking for something on the ground in front of him.
Mo Yu was also shocked by this scene. While the driver helped him put down the elevator board, Mo Yu leaned close to Gu Lian’s ear and asked, “What are you looking for?”
“A crack in the ground.” Gu Lian’s lips moved slightly.
“What?” Mo Yu did not hear clearly.
“I’m looking for a crack in the ground to hide in. It’s too embarrassing,” Gu Lian said patiently again.
After Mo Yu heard this answer clearly, she was silent for a moment before saying again, “Then bring me along.”
