Chapter Seventy-Four: Ambiguity

date""No...""Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, I don't want to show my face."Gu Xicheng looked at her and continued, "All the female companions attending the banquet tonight will be wearing masks.""Your internship c...She gripped the pen tightly in her hand, trying to make her voice sound calm.

Gu Xi's ruby-red lips were lightly pursed, cold and devoid of any emotion.

He suddenly reached out, his hand resting on her small face, helping to tuck the stray strands of hair behind her ears.

Xu Yi Xue's carefully constructed facade of calmness crumbled instantly, revealing her embarrassment. Her ears were probably red from shyness.

"Mr. Gu, I'm sorry, I lost your pen."

He felt his body getting tighter and tighter!

He, who has always been aloof and reserved, would actually be so impulsive in the office, towards a woman!

This isn't like him at all!

When he was outside, he was always the calmest.

He will never lose control!

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Ji Chuan's respectful voice came in.

"Mr. Gu, there's been a bit of a problem over there. They want to move the schedule up and would like you to go there now."

Xu Yixue pretended to be calm and stood straight, trying to remind Lu Zhanbei.

"Mr. Gu, Ji Chuan is coming in!"

Outside, Jichuan knocked on the door again.

Mr. Gu, things are a bit urgent.

"Come in."

The moment the office door opened, Gu Xicheng nonchalantly withdrew his gaze from Xu Yixue and settled into his office chair, crossing his long legs.

Xu Yixue, as if in despair, saw a faint glimmer of sunlight.

She scrambled back to her seat.

Ji Chuan subconsciously glanced at the two of them.

Although he couldn't see anything, he could naturally hear Ms. Xu's breathing getting heavier as she struggled to control it because of his years of training.

He didn't care, he walked to the desk and put the file in front of Gu Xicheng.

"Mr. Gu, there are a lot of local residents gathered at the Dachuan Mountain construction site. Things are out of hand on Ye's side now, and they hope that Mr. Gu can appear in person once."

Daxiangshan is a newly developed housing estate and is currently one of the largest real estate projects in Tokyo, second only to Yunjian Shuizhuang.

It was perfectly fine before, but there was an incident where a manager embezzled demolition fees, which caused several public disturbances and slightly affected the Gu family's reputation.

Although the manager has handed the case over to the police, the residents in the surrounding area are still rioting.

"Wasn't the demolition pay already agreed upon"

Gu Xicheng flipped open the file in front of him and skimmed it briefly.

“Originally, we had agreed. But after this incident, everyone felt that the relocation fees were still inappropriate.”

Actually, I just want to make some more money.

Actually, most of the relocated residents are satisfied with the price, after all, Gu's offered relocation fees are higher than industry standards.

But in this, it is clear that someone is leading the trouble.

Now that the project has run into trouble, it's a good opportunity to make things worse.

The relationship here is a bit complicated, and it's not impossible that someone from a rival company is behind it.

"Mr. Gu, I've made all the arrangements. You just need to make a brief appearance, and I'll handle everything else."

Gu Xi Cheng closed the file and stood up.

Ji Chuan immediately packed up his laptop and followed him out the door.

Gu Xicheng glanced back at Xu Yixue. With a half-smile, he said: "I'll have Ji Ling arrange a car for you later. Go back to Shengyu first, and I'll take you around next time."

Step out the door.t lucky and meet a wealthy person.""Just think having a pretty face is enough."After the gossipy woman finished speaking, a man enthusiastically pointed to a chair beside him: "Miss, would you like to...
