Chapter 473: Chapter 478 Endless 6
“I’m going to leave now, I’ll visit her at home another day.” After bidding farewell to Bai Qianqian and her two siblings, Gu Qingxin left the hospital.
Halfway through her journey, her phone rang again. Seeing a strange number displayed, she answered. Gu Huai’an’s voice came from the line, “Qingxin, have you spoken to Beiming Han about the issue I raised last time? What’s his attitude?”
“Has Gu Yunci’s prosthetic nose been fixed?” Gu Qingxin retorted.
There was silence on the other end.
“It’s not that I don’t want to tell him, but even if I did, would Beiming Han be interested in a woman with a crooked nose? I doubt it,” she challenged.
“…”
Gu Huai’an was surprisingly speechless.
“You should be focusing on fixing her nose as soon as possible. Once that’s done, then come find me,” Gu Qingxin proposed, buying herself some time.
“About the business collaboration…” Gu Huai’an, realizing he couldn’t get anywhere with the first topic, brought up another issue. The Gu family’s business was getting worse by the day.
“You should know there are so many people who want to work with the Sheng Ming Corporation. Beiming Han gave you an opportunity, but you failed to seize it. As for when he’ll have time to see you again, I’m not sure. You should wait and see. Maybe his secretary will call you.”
Gu Qingxin finished speaking and promptly hung up.
When Gu Qingxin arrived at the Sheng Ming Corporation, she rode the elevator to the floor where the president’s office was located.
She walked into the secretary’s office, whereupon Lian Qingruo immediately came over to inform her, “Miss Gu, the president is currently engaged with a guest. Let me take you somewhere else to rest.”
“Can I stay here for a while?” Gu Qingxin gestured towards an empty desk.
“Well…alright then. There’s a computer there if you’re bored. I’ll go make you a cup of coffee,” responded Lian Qingruo with a smile before she left.
Gu Qingxin sat down and took out her phone. Before she’d had a chance to put a screen protector on her new phone, the screen was already ruined.
She was so frustrated she wanted to bash her head against a wall. Within six months, she had lost or broken three or four phones!
Lian Qingruo brought her a cup of coffee before rushing off to attend to other duties.
Gu Qingxin watched the clock on the wall. It was after twelve already. She had only taken a couple of bites of a sandwich in the morning and was now so hungry she felt her stomach touching her back.
“Rumble…” Her stomach started protesting.
Gu Qingxin quickly placed her hand over her belly and had no choice but to endure. The office door finally opened. She turned to look and saw Long Xuxu emerging from the room…
Upon seeing her, Long Xuxu sniggered disdainfully, turned haughtily and, tottering on her ten centimeter heels, left.
“Miss Gu, the president says you can go in,” said Lian Qingruo, heading towards her.
Gu Qingxin no longer had the heart to pay attention to Long Xuxu. She walked into the president’s office, which was empty.
Gu Qingxin walked over and took a seat on the office couch, placing her bag next to her.
The door to the rest room swung open as Beiming Han walked out, in the process of tying his tie. Seeing her there, he called out to her, “Come over.”
Gu Qingxin stood up and walked towards him.
“Can you tie a necktie?” Beiming Han noticed something off about her facial expression and his brows started to knitt.
Gu Qingxin nodded. In the past, in an attempt to curry favor with Tang Rongling, she had practiced it for a long time, but he had never given her the opportunity to tie it for him.
Seeing her nodding, Beiming Han’s eyes narrowed subtly, “Who have you tied it for?”
