My Mr. Gu is Courting Death Again

Chapter 668: The Explanation (2)

“Miss Xu, that’s all I know. Initially, I was also curious why he wanted to divorce you. I also tried to ask him indirectly, but he ignored me.”

“When you requested for me to return the things to CEO Gu, I even mentioned to him that you were still quite sad. He... He did not react. He just kept them all in the drawer without a glance. He had never touched them since then.”

Assistant Lin noticed that Xu Weilai was still calm after everything that he said, and was no longer sad like how she used to be. Only then did he feel relieved and continued to speak, “So I thought that perhaps the fate between you and CEO Gu was destined to end there and then. When I heard that you went abroad, I feel that it was good for both of you too, leading each of your own life separately. Who knew you would suddenly decide to come back? Not only did you come back, but you came back as Zuo An’s secretary. First of all, I don’t see the need for you to get yourself involved in these nasty matters of the business world. Secondly... I still think of you as my Young Mistress, as my family. That’s why I was so angry.”

“I apologize for what I’ve said to you back then. I’m sorry.”

Xu Weilai pursed her lips and calmly replied, “It’s okay. I didn’t take it to heart.”

She pondered for a moment and asked, “What about Zuo An? Why did all of you resent him so much? Didn’t he join the Gu Corporation because of the partnership between the Zuo Corporation and the Gu Corporation? Or because it would be more beneficial for you if Zuo Si was the one in the position of Vice President?”

“At the end of the day, Zuo Si is also part of Zuo Corporation isn’t it?”

Assistant Lin was slightly surprised by her question. He widened his eyes and sized up Xu Weilai. He stared at her for a while and he whispered, “Miss Xu, you couldn’t really...have been tricked by Zuo An?”

“What do you even mean by being tricked into this? Do you even know how to converse?”Xu Weilai pretended to be angry, “You were the one that has always misunderstood me, okay? I have always been working for Zuo An. Now that he needed someone to help him when he entered a new company, he made me his secretary. I know nothing about the business between him and Gu Yu.

After a pause, she couldn’t resist herself but to add on mockingly, “Gu Yu has also been keeping me in the dark all this time, hasn’t he?”

Everything was kept under wraps perfectly. If not for Zuo An, who urged her to return to the country and brought her into the Gu Corporation, she would still be in the dark, and continued to work with the press abroad, healing her wound with time.

“About this...”Assistant Lin scratched his head as he could not refute.

He had expected that CEO Gu had not wanted Xu Weilai to know anything about the crisis the company was facing. CEO Gu knew when Xu Weilai went abroad, but her return was totally out of his expectation.

“Miss Xu, you’ve been in the company for a while now. You should be able to tell that your Big Boss wasn’t one that keeps his hand to himself. He has been privately getting close with the directors that hold neutral standing, working on them to slowly isolate CEO Gu.”

“He did not join to strengthen the Gu Corporation but to seize power. But that might not be the case with Miss Zuo. Miss Zuo as the Vice President will realize the actual cooperation between the Gu Corporation and the Zuo Corporation. They were in a different standpoint.”

Xu Weilai took a deep breath. “Alright. Even when all these that you’ve said make sense, I still have one final doubt.”
