Chapter 48 Mr. Chen’s Little Awkwardness
Because Gu Beichen temporarily decided to come back early, he didn't have time to deal with many things abroad. On the weekend when he came back, Xiao Jing worked overtime all night to catch a cold... He passed by the hospital and came in to prescribe some medicine.
Although he was confused when he saw Jian Mo, he didn't think much and drove directly to the Emperor Group headquarters.
Emperor Group is located in the most prosperous center of Los Angeles Commercial Street. The 79-story building is like a monster, overlooking everything around it.
There were a lot of people working overtime on weekends. Gu Beichen had already held two video conferences in a row after coming over... and issued several instructions, often involving investment projects worth hundreds of millions.
"Do you want to take a rest first?" Susan came out of Gu Beichen's office holding the documents and asked when she saw Xiao Jing looking decadent.
Xiao Jing shook his head with a miserable look on his face, "Forget it, Mr. Chen sees that today is going to be a stormy weather... I don't want to die yet!"
Susan shrugged and looked back strangely, "Why did Mr. Chen come back so suddenly?"
"If I told you, it was because of Jian Mo, would you believe it?" Xiao Jing's voice was starting to feel weak and hoarse.
Susan was obviously stunned. She was the secretary and Xiao Jing was the special assistant. As Gu Beichen's right-hand man, it could be said... Mr. Chen didn't have many secrets to guard against them.
However, leaving her job and returning to China for the sake of the young lady... Susan never thought it was possible.
"Actually, I also want to believe that it's not true..." Xiao Jing sneezed, his mind a little confused.
He was so busy last night, and even after receiving a call from Mr. Chen, he even found time to inquire about the past affairs of Jian Mo and Chu Zixiao. What he did as a special assistant was becoming more and more difficult, alas!
"Has Xiao Jing come back?" At the right time, Gu Beichen's cold voice came from the internal phone.
Susan looked at Xiao Jing with some sympathy, and then replied: "Young Master Chen, you are back."
"Let him in!"
"Okay!" Susan pressed the internal line, "Go...serve your master well!"
"Hey, do you think if I follow Mr. Chen, will I age early?" Xiao Jing asked, but he was already walking towards Gu Beichen's office.
"Notify the real estate department that I want to see the design drawings of 'Yuehua City' before get off work tomorrow at the latest..." The moment Xiao Jing came in, Gu Beichen said coldly without raising his head, "Also, make an appointment with Director Li Let’s have dinner tonight.”
Xiao Jing responded and was about to leave, but he was thinking about whether to tell Gu Beichen about Jian Mo who saw something wrong in the hospital... Now that Mr. Chen is not sure, it would be bad if he turns around and doesn't step on a landmine.
Gu Beichen raised his head at this time, looked at Xiao Jing with eagle eyes and asked: "Is there anything else?!"
"Mr. Chen," Xiao Jing thought for a while and said, "When I was passing by the hospital just now... I saw Miss Jian was also in the hospital, and she looked a little bad."
Gu Beichen frowned slightly, and just said a faint "hmm" before continuing to sign the document with his eyes lowered...
Xiao Jing left the office without saying anything else, but when he closed the door, he saw Gu Beichen took his mobile phone and dialed a number and went out...
"Where?" Gu Beichen asked coldly as soon as the phone call came through.
Jian Mo was sitting next to the window of a fast food restaurant, and she was like saying to Gu Beichen, "I'm eating with another man." But unfortunately...she didn't have the courage to really provoke that man. .
"Get ready to eat." Jian Mo said calmly, "At a fast food restaurant."
Gu Beichen was silent for a while, and then he said, "Well, I'm at the company, please bring food..." Originally he wanted to ask her why she went to the hospital, but instead he asked her to bring food. .
Gu Beichen felt that his IQ had never been worse at this moment.
"..." Jian Mo's mouth twitched and she said emphatically, "I'm at a food stall!"
Gu Beichen raised his eyebrows, "Can't I eat at the food stall? I want to see lunch in half an hour!" After finishing his words, he hung up the phone without giving Jian Mo a chance to speak.
Jian Mo held the phone and her teeth itched with hatred. She didn't know what was going on with Gu Beichen right now... In order to avoid suspicion, he never took her to public places, and naturally she didn't want to cause trouble with him in public.
But at this moment, she was asked to deliver food, and it didn't matter that it was fast food from a food stall... Who could tell her what the hell Gu Beichen was doing? !
No matter what it was, Jian Mo still packed a few of Gu Beichen's favorite dishes and took a taxi to the Emperor Group... Today is the weekend, she thought that there would be no one there, but unfortunately, when she arrived, she felt that there was no one there. How childish.
Large groups, even on weekends, are obviously working intensively... No wonder the Emperor Group has always been a legend in Los Angeles.
"Hello, do you have an appointment?" the front desk lady asked with a decent smile.
"The delivery person," Jian Mo wasn't lying. She originally wanted to say it was for Gu Beichen, but after thinking about it, she said, "Xiao Te helped order it!"
When the front desk heard this, she was obviously a little surprised... She looked around Jian Mo and saw at a glance that the clothes she was wearing were luxury brands, and she couldn't help but sneer secretly.
Are the current ladies doing whatever it takes to get close to Mr. Chen?
Delivery? Fortunately she could figure it out... and Xiao Te helped order it, hum!
"Did Xiao Te help you order it?" There was mockery in the front desk's eyes, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was still perfect, "Then just put it here, I will send it up later."
Jian Mo did not ignore the sarcasm from the front desk, but she thought it was quite unexpected for her to bring food like this. "Okay." She responded and put the lunch box aside, and said in a showy manner, "Twenty yuan, thank you. !”
puff……
The receptionist seemed to be choking on his own saliva.
Who is Xiao Jing? He is someone close to Gu Beichen. His annual salary is even more than that of many department heads... Eating twenty yuan of fast food? Even the food in the employee restaurant on the ground floor of the Emperor is more than this price.
After thinking about it, the front desk politely paid Jian Mo twenty yuan.
Jian Mo took it generously and turned around, then sent a text message to Gu Beichen: Mr. Chen's fast food has been placed at the front desk. I wish you a happy meal!
Gu Beichen's face turned dark when he received the text message. He threw down his signature pen and got up and went downstairs...
The front desk was originally planning to dispose of the 20 yuan fast food, but before she could, she saw Gu Beichen walking over alone. She was so frightened that she hurriedly bowed and said hello, "President!"
"Where is the person who delivers the fast food?" Gu Beichen glanced at the fast food box and asked coldly.
The front desk was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously said: "Let's go..."
Gu Beichen's eagle eyes slid across the front desk, and he said in a cold voice, "You don't have to come to work tomorrow." Then he turned around and chased after him.
The front desk's eyes turned red immediately. Xiao Jing followed him without knowing what happened. After looking at Gu Beichen's back, he asked, "What's going on?"
The front desk told the story about the fast food delivery, and handed the fast food to Xiao Jing pitifully, "Assistant Xiao, I said it was for you."
Xiao Jing asked about the appearance of the person who delivered the fast food, and when he heard it, he said, OK... The president's wife personally delivered the fast food, but was refused the door of her company. No wonder Mr. Chen's face was darker than the bottom of the pot.
