Chapter 131 Gu Family's Old House
Chapter 131 Gu Family's Old House
Brian was drunk and had a good night in a private room of a hotel. When he woke up on the second day, he rubbed his sleepy eyes, sat up from the sofa and looked around. Where am I?
"You are awake." Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
A woman in a low cut slip dress suddenly moved in front of him and looked at him with a smile, revealing her white teeth.
Brian leaned back and raised his eyebrows, "you, who are you?"
It was surprising that a woman appeared out of nowhere. "I'm Shelia."
"Oh, Shelia."
It was not until Brian sobered up that he remembered where he had been last night. There was a Disco, next to a bar. The strange woman in front of him was the woman who had a dance with him last night. She was about more than 30 years old, a little older and more open than him.
Brian looked around and found that there were also several people lying on the other sofa in the private room. They were in a mess, drooling and sleepy.
"We had a good time last night, and then we slept here."
Shelia said as she looked at Brian. Brian nodded to show that he had remembered everything.
Because of drinking too much, Brian felt dizzy. The scene in front of him slowly rotated, and he shook his head.
"Bring me a glass of water."
"I only have this one. Do you want to drink this alone?" Shelia asked as she took out a bottle of water from her bag.
"Did you drink it?"
Brian frowned and his lips were dry. Brian Looking at the half bottle of water in the hand of Shelia, the woman in front of him nodded hard. Brian glared at her and said, "keep it and drink it yourself."
The others also woke up one after another. They were lazy, like a pile of fat, without energy.
Brian put on his suit and picked up the phone on the sofa, "I'm going back."
Back on the street, there were many people coming and going, and Brian's mind was much clearer. He went into a convenience store and bought a bottle of water. He raised his head and drank half a bottle.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
Aron took out his phone and saw the caller ID on the screen. He frowned and remembered that his brother, Aron, had called him last night.
"Hello, what's up?"
"Brian, let's meet. When are you free?"
The air in the morning was clear, and the sun was shining on the ground, leaving a few drops of water on the plants. Brian stood on the street, and the car's whistle blew from time to time.
"Well, just say it on the phone."
He didn't want to see Aron alone. Since his father passed away, he had never returned to the Gu family's old house. The relationship between the two had been maintained because of their parents.
After his father passed away, he had cut off contact with Aron. Under normal circumstances, Aron had never contacted him.
As for Aron, Brian was cold, polite and distant to him.
"It's hard to explain it clearly on the phone. Let's meet," insisted Aron, and Brian couldn't refuse his repeated insistence.
"I'm free tomorrow night. Come here."
"Okay, bye."
The person on the other end of the phone hung up, and a mocking smile appeared at the corners of Brian's mouth. Aron had not changed in the past few years, indifferent and unreasonable.
Looking through the phone records, Brian found that last night, Aron called him, probably when he was drunk. Bran shrugged and put the phone into his pocket.
Walking into a restaurant at the corner, Brian found an empty seat and sat down. He ordered a bowl of noodles and a few dishes. After breakfast, Brian was ready to go back to the company. After all, he was the biggest shareholder of the company and needed to deal with a lot of things.
"Master Brian, your father had high expectations of you when he was alive. You can't let him down."
"The company is still yours, isn't it?"
"Master Brian, if you like, you can learn company management from us."
"We'll help you for a while. You have to walk on your own in the future."
While eating the noodles, Brian recalled the words of several important leaders of the company to him, and the cynicism in his eyes was still not reduced.
He took a sip of soup and looked at the people in the block. He was absent-minded for a while. He must keep the family business left by his father. He couldn't let it be lost. The competition in business was cruel. A company couldn't afford good products or serve customers, and the company would be closed down.
After finishing his noodles, Brian asked the waiter to pay the bill and hurried to the company.
In Austin's Office
"Mr. Lin, have a look at this document."
The Secretary, dressed in a blue suit and high heels, walked into Austin's office and handed him the documents.
"Well, put it there."
Austin's attention was on the screen of the computer. He kept typing on the keyboard with a fast speed.
"I have to go on a business trip tomorrow. I will be back in about two days. If you have anything to do in the company, you can call my wife."
"Okay, Mr. Lin."
The Secretary pushed the door open and walked out. Austin was still busy at his computer. He had to finish his important work before he went on a business trip.
"Inform all department managers to have a meeting. Gather in the meeting room in ten minutes."
After packing up, Austin picked up the phone and said to his secretary. He put down the microphone, prepared the documents for the meeting, and went to the meeting room. When he passed by the office of Yolande, he couldn't help but stop and stood outside the office door.
Yolande's office was in a straight line with the meeting room. If they went to the meeting room, they would definitely pass by her office.
After hesitating for a while, Austin knocked on the door twice. When Yolande opened the door, she was a little surprised to see Austin standing outside.
"Yes, I'm going to the meeting room."
"Let's go together."
"Oh, wait a minute. I'm going to get the materials."
She returned to the office, held the documents prepared on the table in her arms, and rushed to the meeting room with him before.
In the meeting, all department leaders reported the company's performance and customer satisfaction. The financial department also reported the company's financial situation in the past month.
"Well, very good. Everyone is working hard."
Austin glanced at Yolande and said, "the CFO of our company, my wife, she has made great progress in her work this month. We are all seniors of the CFO. Please give her more advice on her work."
Austin said modestly and respectfully. Yolande smiled sheepishly.
"Mr. Lin, it's what we should do. Let's work together."
An hour later, Austin announced the meeting was over. Everyone stood up and began to pack up. After tidying up the documents, Yolande rushed out of the meeting room. There were still two hours before she got off work. She had to finish all her work before she got off work.
The man turned around and saw the woman's receding figure. His eyes were full of affection. He couldn't help but smile with relief. Yolande was getting more and more excellent, just like the time when she was in college. At that time, she was as determined as now and was very serious about everything.
