Assistant Lin knocked on the office door. After hearing Gu Yu say, “Enter,” he pushed the door to enter the room and stood in front of the office table. He looked at Gu Yu. He asked respectfully, “Mr. Gu, what do you need?”
Gu Yu rubbed his eyebrows. He didn’t reply to Assistant Lin immediately. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the blue sky with an unreadable expression.
Assistant Lin curious, but he learned to become quite observant after following Gu Yu for a long time. He could tell that his boss was currently in a bad mood, so he kept his mouth closed and waited quietly for his boss to give him the order.
After a minute of silence, Gu Yu’s gaze shifted back from the window onto Assistant Lin. He tapped the surface of the table lightly with his fingertips and moved his thin lips. He said in a low voice, “My schedule for the next few days.”
Assistant Lin was stunned for a second before he understood what Gu Yu meant. His big boss wanted him to report his future schedules. He thought that something happened again; he was so frightened that his heart pounded furiously!
He immediately took out the Ipad he was carrying the whole time and tapped on it with his fingertips a few times to open the schedule. Then, he reported the schedule in detail to Gu Yu.
Since the company had just completed a big project recently, Gu Yu was unable to go home and accompany young mistress for three days and three nights. Hence, Assistant Lin was tactful and arranged Gu Yu’s current schedule to make time for her. He would try his best to handle any unnecessary or less important schedules himself so that Gu Yu would have time to go home and accompany his wife!
He didn’t know why, but he noticed the expression on his boss’s handsome face turning colder and colder as he spoke. He didn’t know what he said wrong.
Finally, he finished reporting next week’s schedule to his boss. Assistant Lin saw that Gu Yu’s face had turned entirely dark and gloomy. He couldn’t help but gulp and asked cautiously, “Mr. Gu, which part are you not satisfied with?”
Could it be that Mr. Gu felt that the schedule was too tight? If that was the case… he would try his best to revise it and check if he could cancel some events!
Gu Yu’s looked at him faintly as he asked in a cold voice, “Is the Gu Corporation going bankrupt?”
Assistant Lin’s heart dropped instantly, rendering him speechless. Whatever the matter was, he decided to close his eyes and curry favor his boss first. “Mr. Gu, why are you always saying such frightening things? Under your brilliant and outstanding leadership, the Gu Corporation is steadily growing. Sometimes our company’s performance keeps hitting new highs in terms of its performance. How can it go bankrupt?”
“In that case, why do I have so much free time?” Gu Yu’s voice turned even more chilly. Even his gaze turned icy.
Assistant Lin felt speechless and frustrated.
He wasn’t complaining that he had too much work… was he complaining about having too much free time?
His big boss has always been a workaholic. Ever since his relationship with young mistress began to improve, however, he would begin doing as he wished. Every day, he would either arrive late for work or leave early to go home. Assistant Lin felt bad about having to work overtime every single night. He was still single and already balding!
Assistant Lin gave a pitiful face as he softly complained, “Mr. Gu, I was just trying to lessen your burden…”
“Huh?”
He only said one word, but Assistant Lin could feel that he was going to face the scary decision of moving to Africa or the Philipines soon. Thus, he instantly straightened his face and replied, “Mr. Gu, I understand. I will fill up your schedule entirely for the following week so you will be productive every day! I will make sure that you receive all the work you could ever want!”
Gu Yu nodded his head in satisfaction and waved his hand at Assistant Lin.
After Assistant Lin left the office, Gu Yu took out his phone and replied to Xu Weilai’s message.
