Chapter 403: Chapter 403 Call Her Aunt (3)

"Understood, Director Chen," Zhong Qiaohui responded.

All members of the Financial Department present listened, and each of them couldn’t help but look at those who had been selected.

Tang Qingzhong was the first to approach, taking Gu Nuan aside to ask, "What’s going on?"

"No need to be nervous, senior," Gu Nuan said, noticing his tense expression.

Tang Qingzhong was indeed anxious, feeling as though the situation was very serious, almost a matter of life and death.

Gu Nuan knew what he was worried about. At his age, not too young nor too old, he had finally found his footing in Changda. Moreover, with a wife and children at home and needing to pay the mortgage and car loans, even being a mediocre performer in Changda showed that the benefits of a large corporation were still very good. If there was an accident, the wellbeing of his family, their house, and car had to be considered.

Everyone knew that Tang Qingzhong got along well with her.

Suddenly, Gu Nuan realized this was no longer just about her and her husband.

Unknowingly, they had involved many others. These people, completely innocent, should not have to suffer because of them.

That afternoon, Gu Nuan first received a task notification from her husband.

Mr. Yebai suddenly appeared before her in the image of a superior, giving orders for the first time rather than coming to her for a meal, sending a work text instead of asking her to join him for food, saying, "Xiaolian will drive to pick you up, come downstairs."

Gu Nuan was somewhat unaccustomed to Mr. Yebai not coming over for a meal.

She always felt that, besides coming over for meals, he had no other skills—of course, she knew this was just the impression he intentionally gave her.

Since she was Xiao Yebai’s person, she could leave as soon as she informed her own boss.

Gu Nuan knocked on Li Sitong’s office door to update him.

Li Sitong did not need to ask further and directly allowed it.

As she turned to leave, Li Sitong added, "Think it over."

The comment would surely be unclear to anyone else, but after hearing it, Gu Nuan smiled faintly and replied, "Minister, at this point, fear and hesitation are useless."

Her words directly pointed out Li Sitong’s longstanding weakness.

Li Sitong’s face changed slightly, and he fell silent.

Frankly speaking, Gu Nuan knew what he was worried about—after all, the project he had shown her was too risky, and although he wanted her to try it, he did not want her to use it at this critical juncture.

This is the thinking of most people: prefer to step back to safeguard oneself rather than bravely step forward even if facing failure.

As Gu Nuan was leaving, she saw Zhong Qiaohui was busy and didn’t manage to greet her new colleague before she left. Just in time, she could ask Mr. Yebai how he planned to use her friend and mentor.

Walking to the garage, Zang Xiaolian was waiting for her with his BMW.

Gu Nuan got into the car and asked, "Where to?"

"Big Brother said that Sister-in-law was supposed to go to the hospital today."

Right, she had forgotten, truly forgotten. Caught up in work, she seemed to have pushed the message Ou Yanan sent last night to the back of her mind. Strangely, Ou Yanan had not pushed her as before. Had something occurred in the meantime?

Now, Gu Nuan began to carefully ponder it, seeming to notice a subtle change in his demeanor from last night. Could it be that woman was starting to cause trouble?

The BMW arrived at Mingxin, where she heard her husband was waiting for her at Tang Sili’s office. Gu Nuan directly went up to Tang Sili’s office.

Tang Sili, having heard about his promotion to head of surgery, enjoyed a smoothly advancing career, causing envy among everyone at the hospital.

Such a young head of surgery at a top-tier hospital could definitely make today’s headlines.
