Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Closed-Door Meeting! It Went on Until Midnight!

Three of them walked to Bo Yunshen’s office together. Qin Yan then asked Gu Jinyan, "Mr. Gu, can you tell me now what you wanted to see me for?"

Gu Jinyan cleared his throat as Bo Yunshen walked behind the desk and sat down.

Apart from Qin Yinyin, who greeted Qin Yan, no one else disturbed the conversation between Gu Jinyan and Qin Yan.

"Sister-in-law, I’ve been trying to call Xiangxiang for the past few days and can’t get through. Can you get in touch with her?"

As Gu Jinyan asked, Qin Yan’s eyelashes fluttered and her gaze landed on Gu Jinyan—he had a furrowed brow, and although there was still a smile in his peach blossom eyes, the tension at the bottom of his eyes was impossible to hide!

Qin Yan remembered the last time Gu Jinyan bought underwear for Xiangxiang.

Although now was not the best time to gossip, Qin Yan couldn’t help but respond, "Mr. Gu, you couldn’t possibly have feelings for Xiangxiang, could you?"

Gu Jinyan’s expression stiffened as he said, "Of course not! I need her for something! A rabbit doesn’t eat the grass by its own burrow! How could I possibly fall for Lu Xiang, I’m not a masochist..."

Qin Yan thought about it too.

Lu Xiang and Gu Jinyan have always been very close, but the thing is that Xiangxiang always seems to exploit Gu Jinyan!

"I called Xiangxiang a few days ago. She said she was out of town on a business trip, and her boss was holding a closed meeting. To ensure the quality of the meeting, everyone had to hand in their mobile phones."

Qin Yan thought for a moment and then added, "Moreover, their training sessions often last until midnight. I guess Xiangxiang has been tormented and has no time to check her phone these days! If you need her for something, you might try calling her overnight!"

Gu Jinyan cursed softly, "Damn! They keep going until midnight, and Lu Xiang can take that? Did she mention where she’s traveling for business?"

"S City!"

After Qin Yan finished speaking, Gu Jinyan stood up from the sofa. With one hand holding his phone, he didn’t even look back. He waved at Bo Yunshen behind the desk, saying, "Old Bo! I’ve got things to do, let’s eat together some other time, alright?"

Without waiting for Bo Yunshen to reply, he pushed open the door and walked out of the office.

Gu Jinyan’s expression was ice-cold. He was famously good-tempered in their circle, but right now his brows were tightly furrowed, and the corners of his lips were drawn into a straight line, scaring away the secretary’s women who had initially wanted to flirt with him.

However, Gu Jinyan was oblivious to this.

His mind replayed Qin Yan’s words over and over again!

Closed meetings!

Continuing until midnight!

Gu Jinyan knew Lu Xiang’s boss.

A rising star in Tong City’s business circle for the past two years. After taking over Feng Group, he doubled its performance in two years—a highly sought-after talent!

When Lu Xiang was job searching, Gu Jinyan had offered her a position. She could have been an executive at Gu Group, but instead, she chose to become an obscure secretary at Feng Group!

Suddenly, Gu Jinyan recalled the last time he was kicked out by his father and went looking for Lu Xiang!

Before he even entered, he saw a man utterly drunk, supported by another man as she got out of a car!

While Gu Jinyan didn’t mingle much with Feng Chen, it wasn’t as if he didn’t recognize him, especially since he had researched the origins of Feng Group after Lu Xiang joined them!

Wasn’t it Feng Chen who had taken Lu Xiang home that night?

In the dead of night, the boss sends his secretary home. Pshaw!

Feng Chen’s intentions were as clear as day!

Gu Jinyan gritted his teeth and couldn’t even bother to watch the comedy of Bo Yunshen and Qin Yan anymore. He went straight down to Bo Group’s underground parking lot while calling his own secretary.

"Book me a ticket to S City! The fastest flight available!"

His secretary was baffled, replying instinctively, "President? What are you going to do in S City? Weren’t you supposed to have lunch with Mr. Lin this afternoon?"

"The lunch meeting will be pushed back. I need to go to S City now!"

"But..."

Gu Jinyan’s face darkened as he snapped, "But what? Are you the boss or am I the boss?"

The secretary was taken aback and said, "I’ll book your ticket right now!"

Gu Jinyan grunted and hung up the phone, then drove out of Bo Group, heading straight for the airport.

After Gu Jinyan left, Qin Yan stood up. The public relations department’s meeting was only half-over, and she planned to return to it. Seeing that Gu Jinyan had left, she stood up and said quietly to Bo Yunshen, who was sitting behind his desk, "Mr. Bo, since Mr. Gu’s matter has been resolved, I will head back first."

Bo Yunshen didn’t even lift his eyelids, his voice unflustered, "Director Qin, if you leave now, do you expect me to look after your daughter?"

Qin Yan pressed her lips together and glanced at Qin Yinyin sitting on the sofa, licking her rosy lips.

Her plans to take Yinyin to kindergarten had fallen through, and now with the fresh scandal and this morning’s interview-caused incident, Qin Yan naturally didn’t dare make another trip to the kindergarten.

She had to work, and with Lu Xiangxiang not in Tong City, there really was no one to take care of Qin Yinyin.

Qin Yan furrowed her brows and asked, "What do you suggest then, Mr. Bo?"

Hearing Qin Yan’s question, Bo Yunshen finally looked at her, gesturing towards the desk in front of him, "This afternoon, you’ll work from here!"

Qin Yan’s pupils constricted sharply; she had never expected Bo Yunshen to propose such a thing. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Mr. Bo, I’ll take Yinyin to the public relations department. Only the two of us know about that day’s incident. I want to see if I can be of any help. Don’t worry, Yinyin is well-behaved and won’t disturb anyone."

Bo Yunshen’s gaze shifted toward Qin Yan with a smirk, "You say she won’t be noisy, and I allow you to bring her. Does that mean other employees will also want to bring their children to work, and I should agree to that? Bo Group is a company, not a daycare!"

He scoffed at the idea, mocking the notion of helping.

She wants to be with Lu Yi, that’s what’s true, right?

The expressions Qin Yan and Lu Yi wore were full of malice; who knew whether they were planning to use this opportunity to undermine him and Bo Group?

Unaware of Bo Yunshen’s thoughts, Qin Yan blinked, agreeing with him, "Then I’ll go to the marketing department and bring my laptop up."

Bo Yunshen pushed the landline on his desk and said, "How would I know if you’ll come back after leaving? Call your secretary to bring it up."

Qin Yan: "..."

Following his instruction, Qin Yan made the call and in less than three minutes, Xiao Shen brought up the items she requested.

Qin Yan had been trapped in the restroom of Night Club by Tang Tian after last Thursday’s celebration banquet, so she hadn’t come to work on Friday. Now with the start of a new week on Monday, indeed, there were many things piling up. As soon as she opened her laptop, she was immersed in work within minutes.

The office was quiet except for the sound of Qin Yinyin flipping through her fairy tale book and the rapid tapping of Qin Yan’s fingertips on the computer keyboard.

Perhaps it was the fatigue of summer, the company was very quiet, so Qin Yinyin and Qin Yan’s presence was especially pronounced due to the noises they made.
