My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again

Gu Yu was flipping through his documents when he heard this. As his pupils contracted, he abruptly stopped what he was doing and asked, “She came?”

“Yes. I’m just as surprised as you!” Assistant Lin nodded.

He paused for a moment and observed Gu Yu’s expression. Then, he opened his mouth cautiously and probed, “Mr. Gu, if you don’t want to see her, I’ll think of a reason to ask young mistress to go back.”

Gu Yu furrowed his brows and thought about it for a few seconds. He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said, “No, let her come up.”

Assistant Lin’s eyes widened in shock; he wasn’t expecting Gu Yu to give him that reply.

Even so, his big boss must’ve had his reasons for making this decision. Instead of asking further, Assistant Lin simply replied, “Okay, Mr. Gu. I will go down and bring young mistress up now.”

Just as he was able to turn and leave the room, Gu Yu’s voice sounded again. “There’s one more thing you need to do!”

Assistant Lin stopped in his tracts. “Please give your order.”

Shortly after, Xu Weilai was led into the building by Assistant Lin. When they reached the door of the CEO’s office, Assistant Lin reminded Xu Weilai, “Young mistress, Mr. Gu is having a video conference now. Once you go in, please wait for him on the sofa and try your best not to disturb him.”

“Okay.” Xu Weilai agreed naturally.

Assistant Lin pushed the door of the office open for her and raised his hand to welcome her in.

Xu Weilai nodded at him lightly and raised her feet to enter the office. The moment she entered, she saw the man sitting behind the broad and huge office table. His black eyes were focused attentively on the computer screen. He was speaking in fluent English as he talked to the person on the screen about a project.

Xu Weilai tiptoed when she saw this. She didn’t make any sound and walked to the sofa obediently. She placed the lunchbox softly on the table before gingerly lowering herself onto the sofa.

There was already a cup of coffee placed on the coffee table, with steam rising from it. It looked like Assistant Lin made this cup of coffee for her beforehand. She lifted the cup and took a small sip of it.

Out of the corners of her eyes, she then saw an Ipad placed at the side. It looked a little familiar. It seemed like the Ipad Assistant Lin always carried with him, which had all of Gu Yu’s schedules recorded on it.

Assistant Lin probably left this behind when he was bringing in the coffee for her just now.

Xu Weilai glanced at Gu Yu without letting him notice. She noticed that he wasn’t looking in her direction. In the end, she couldn’t control her restless heart and stretched her hand out to take the Ipad.

The Ipad wasn’t locked, so the screen lit up and the home screen immediately appeared. Xu Weilai clicked on the schedule icon and opened it. As expected, she saw an extremely packed schedule…

Putting aside time to eat and sleep, the rest of the schedule was filled with work.

Gu Yu was extremely busy at this time…

She put the Ipad down silently. As she heaved a sigh of relief, she felt a tinge of guilt.

It looked like she misunderstood him again.

At first, Xu Weilai wanted to have a meal with him together after he finished his video conference. The moment his video conference ended, however, he received another important call. Hence, she waited for half an hour more.

After the phone call ended, Xu Weilai looked at the time. It was already past lunchtime. She looked up at Gu Yu and wanted to call him to have some food first. Coincidentally, someone knocked on the office door.

“Come in.”

Assistant Lin came in with a massive pile of documents in his arms. He said, “Mr. Gu, these are the urgent documents I just received from downstairs. Please look through them and give your signature.”

Then, he raised his voice slightly and continued, “The people below are all waiting for your order.”

“Okay.” Gu Yu acknowledged Assistant Lin’s words and took over the documents. He started looking through them with a serious look in his eyes.

Xu Weilai’s words were already at the edge of her mouth, but she could only swallow them back silently.
