Chapter 544: Something That Must Be Protected (2)
a.s.sistant Lin still couldn’t believe that the contents of the doc.u.ment in front of him were real. He frowned and thought about it for a while, then speculated, “Master Gu, could this doc.u.ment be fake?”
He picked up the doc.u.ment, turned to the last page, and carefully scrutinized the signature and seal on it.
Gu Yu closed his eyes and spoke again in a grave tone, “No matter how stupid Gu Xiong is, he won’t flaunt his power with a fake doc.u.ment. This thing is probably real.”
“Then… Master Gu, what are your plans? ” a.s.sistant Lin’s expression was extremely grave.
If this thing got exposed in the board meeting, owners.h.i.+p of the Gu Corporation would really change!
Gu Yu didn’t say anything for a moment. He turned around and walked to the French window to gaze at the sky outside. The Gu Corporation building was the tallest building in this business area. It overlooked everything else. Looking down, people and vehicles were almost the size of ants.
This land was the blood and sweat of the Gu family that was pa.s.sed down from generation to generation. It was something that he must protect. He would never allow others to covet and s.n.a.t.c.h it away!
Gu Yu was silent for a long time. Dozens of scenes flashed through his mind. In the end, one scene froze in his mind. On one side was Grandfather Gu lying on the hospital bed, and on the other side laid Xu Weilai, whose face was pale.
Anguish suddenly appeared in his eyes.
a.s.sistant Lin stood there while waiting for Gu Yu’s answer or to give him some instructions. However, he remained silent for a long time. Just when he thought that Gu Yu hadn’t thought of a solution and wouldn’t answer him, his deep voice rang out, “Book a plane ticket for me. I want… ”
–
Xu Weilai stayed with the old man for the entire morning before Mrs. Lin ordered her to go back and rest.
Since she had promised Gu Yu after all, she didn’t insist. She got up and let Mr. Lin drive her back to the apartment. She planned to eat something and get some good rest before going to the hospital to accompany her grandfather.
Right after she walked back to the apartment and changed her shoes at the entrance, she heard her phone ring. She quickly unzipped her bag and took out her phone. When she saw that it was Gu Yu calling, she immediately picked up.
She thought that Gu Yu was checking on her, but before he could say anything, she spoke first, “Gu Yu, I was very obedient. I’m already back at the apartment now. I’ll rest well before I go to the hospital again. You don’t have to worry about me.”
The man replied airily, “Okay.”
From his voice, Xu Weilai felt that something was wrong and couldn’t help but ask, “Gu Yu, what’s wrong? Your voice doesn’t sound right… ”
He paused for a few seconds and nonchalantly replied, “It’s nothing. I’m going on a business trip. I’m already at the airport.”
“Huh? Why so sudden?”
Although Gu Yu often went on business trips, his grandfather’s current situation wasn’t stable enough, so was he really going to leave at this time to handle business?
“Yes.” Gu Yu didn’t intend to explain further. “I’ve already arranged everything for grandfather. The doctor will take good care of him. What you need to do is take care of yourself, understand?”
Gu Yu always had his own way of doing things. Since he wasn’t willing to talk about it, Xu Fuji didn’t want to get to the bottom of it.
It was probably because there was something really important that Gu Yu chose to go on a business trip at this time. He already had enough to worry about. She couldn’t let him worry about Grandpa and her while he was out on a business trip.
Xu Weilai nodded vigorously. “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Grandpa. I’ll take good care of myself too.”
“But Gu Yu, when will you be back?”
