Chapter 779: 774 Company Formal Meeting

By the second day, Gu Zhen had no intention of staying any longer; he planned to leave directly.

Because staying on had no more significance.

After all, he had already done everything that needed to be done.

What came next was to have someone from the company take over the work.

After all, a collaboration like this required the involvement of the company’s staff.

He was merely there for a simple chat, just to discuss a few things.

Some of the more complicated aspects, he couldn’t explain very clearly, to be honest.

When he wanted to leave, he could see that the chairman was quite reluctant to let Gu Zhen go.

He even seemed a bit too attached to Gu Zhen, as if he was not ready to part ways.

It had been a long time since he had come across someone as interesting as Gu Zhen.

But no matter how reluctant he was, it was of no use; Gu Zhen had many more matters to take care of.

So, at that time, Gu Zhen still left as he had planned.

When he left, he actually felt a bit reluctant as well.

Because staying here felt like being on a vacation.

It felt quite comfortable, perhaps because he hadn’t been out to play in a long time.

So, at this point, Gu Zhen had such thoughts in his mind.

That morning, after Gu Zhen woke up from the hotel,

The chairman personally drove over to Gu Zhen’s place, intending to drive him back.

Gu Zhen sat in his car and headed towards the airport.

Upon reaching the airport, Gu Zhen’s plane took him straight back home.

By the time he got home, it had already gotten dark.

Arriving at home, he felt a bit weary.

When he got home, he saw that they were both lying down, sleeping.

While the dog was sitting on the couch, looking quite content.

Seeing Gu Zhen return, the dog quickly rushed in front of him.

Then it looked up at Gu Zhen with a big smile, as if it was trying to cuddle up to him.

Gu Zhen just gave it a glance without much interest in coddling the dog.

After such a tiring night, all he wanted was to hurry up and get some sleep.

As for everything else, it could wait until later.

So, under such circumstances, how could Gu Zhen possibly have the patience?

He went to his room to sleep, and the dog could only lie on the sofa, quite unamused—it seemed to be waiting, looking as pitiful as could be. Gu Zhen has always been a bit suspicious that this little guy might be too clever.

If he died one day, this dog couldn’t possibly compete with Tangtang for his inheritance, could it?

When Gu Zhen woke up the next morning, he found that Ji Pianran was the one cooking. Gu Zhen didn’t even know when Pian Ran had woken up.

As Gu Zhen came out of the bedroom, he heard Pian Ran seriously say to him,

"Remember to tell me when you come back every day, no matter how late, you should always have something to eat."

It was as if he was scolding Gu Zhen.

Scolding him for not letting him know beforehand.

"The main reason I didn’t wake you up last night was that it was already so late when I came back, and you seemed to be sleeping well. Besides, it was too late to eat anything."

At that moment, Gu Zhen was still chuckling, while he explained the reason behind his actions.

If he could clearly sense that he wasn’t really accepted by Ji Pianran. Last time, Xiao Peng had told him to wake him up when he returned.

However, during the last evaluation, he didn’t do so either. He always felt that he came back quite late and was rather embarrassed about it. Waking Ji Pianran up now seemed almost like bullying.

Having eaten the meal prepared by Ji Pianran, he found the taste to be quite delicious actually.

Even Gu Zhen could feel that the dishes Ji Pianran now cooked had greatly improved compared to before.

After finishing the meal, Gu Zhen went straight to Little Baijiu Company.

Upon arrival at Little Baijiu Company, he could clearly sense that everyone inside was somewhat relaxed at the moment.

It was easy to understand, after all, there wasn’t much going on for those people in the company.

Yet when they saw Gu Zhen, they all became very tense.

For them, Gu Zhen’s arrival was akin to an inspection.

Especially after Gu Zhen’s explosive outburst in the meeting room during the last meeting, they were actually somewhat fearful of him.

Seeing them all so carefree, Gu Zhen actually felt alright about it.

At that moment, Gu Zhen spoke to everyone present.

"Everybody tidy up and then prepare to head to the meeting room for a meeting," he said.

After he had spoken, all the employees exchanged looks, their faces showing curiosity, wondering what the meeting would entail.

And at that moment, Gu Zhen proceeded directly to the meeting room.

The employees left outside then looked at each other.

They all started whispering to one another.

They spoke cautiously as though they were afraid of being overheard by Gu Zhen.

"What do you think the meeting is about?"

"Do you think our company is going to lay off employees soon?

I heard that our company’s plan in Haicheng fell through.

So at this time, having so many of us is actually a burden for the company."

"I think theoretically it shouldn’t happen, given the large number of employees in our company."

"And our chairman has so many other businesses; I’ve never heard that the chairman would lay off employees."

They all whispered amongst themselves, each person showing a hint of worry on their face.

For them, having a stable job nowadays was incredibly difficult.

And especially working in a company like Gu Zhen’s could be said to be the happiest thing for them.

Because Gu Zhen never caused them any trouble.

On the contrary, Gu Zhen was always kind.

And when he dealt with each employee, he was actually very polite, showing none of the airs of a chairman.

In this respect, it was indeed quite rare.

Meanwhile, the employees, while making wild guesses, carefully proceeded to the meeting room.

Once in the meeting room, everyone fell silent, ready to hear what Gu Zhen had to say.

At that time, Gu Zhen looked at all the employees present and began to speak.

"First of all, I want to thank everyone here for your support of the company over such a long period," he said.

With that, all the employees immediately tensed up.

Because the opening remarks seemed a bit off.

It sounded almost like a prelude to a breakup.
