Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che but did not say anything. The next day.
Gu Industries.
After coming in, Qin Hao carefully placed the documents on top of Gu Jingze's cabinet.
"President Gu, these are the documents related to the ongoing construction of the bay bridge. Please take a look at them. For the time being, we've narrowed the choices down to a few stronger tenders. We've already asked and obtained approval from President Gu's side. Now, we're awaiting your final decision."
Gu Jingze opened the folder and quickly skimmed through a few pages. However, his eyes were fixed on one of the documents inside.
"The Qin family submitted a tender this time?"
"Yes. President Gu, their capabilities spoke for them. After all, they've been in the construction industry for many years, so the panel thought that they were a pretty good choice too." Qin Hao paid attention to Gu Jingze's expression. He wanted to know why Gu Jingze suddenly mentioned the Qin family.
Did he not want the Qin family to participate?
Did he not like the Qin family? However, just then, Gu Jingze suddenly said, "Let's settle on the Qin family then. They've done construction for many years and have the foundations and experience for it. Since the panel also finds them suitable too, we'll choose them."
While saying this, he placed the documents at the side.
Qin Hao looked at him in surprise.
Prior to this, he had helped investigate Lin Che's background and naturally knew about her past relationship with Qin Qing.
Gu Jingze had dismissed Qin Qing almost immediately. Why had he unexpectedly handed such a large project to the Qin family?
Although the Qin family did, in fact, have the ability to handle it, it was not the only company with such abilities.
But there was no point in speculating his boss's intentions. Besides, he knew that his boss would not treat the project or the company lightly.
Lin Che had barely arrived home from the filming site when Gu Jingze suddenly said, "Come, I'll take you out to eat."
Lin Che said, "Ah, but I already ate during filming."
"Then we'll have supper." Gu Jingze wrapped his arm around Lin Che's shoulders in one swift motion and guided her out without giving her time to speak. "Hey, hey, hey. Why exactly do I have to go?"
Although Lin Che was a little confused, she still ultimately trusted Gu Jingze, so she followed along as he pulled her out.
Very soon after, they arrived at a hotel owned by Gu Industries. When they entered the hotel, Lin Che felt that it was bustling with slight excitement inside. She could not help but ask, "What's happening inside?"
Gu Jingze said, "Oh, the tender process for a project just ended and we're planning to officially start work. They're currently celebrating and I came here to make an appearance."
"Oh, so that's what's going on."
They went in soon after. As they were accompanied by bodyguards, the people inside immediately saw Gu Jingze.
"President Gu is here."
"Oh, so President Gu is here."
"We're so honored to have you here, President Gu. Really... you take our project so seriously."
Gu Jingze was usually reclusive but actually graced the venue with his presence for the first time. As they looked at him, everyone believed that Gu Jingze thought very highly of this project and began to feel proud in spite of themselves.
However, Gu Jingze swept his eyes across his surroundings and immediately fixed his gaze on the main table inside.
Qin Qing...
His eyes twitched and the hint of a smile appeared on his face. Although it did not reach his eyes, it was greatly astonishing.
While being led by him, Lin Che felt slightly uncomfortable under the surprised gazes of so many people. Then, she followed Gu Jingze further inside.
As Lin Che walked, she raised her head only to see the person in front of her. Wasn't that... Qin Qing?
Qin Qing had already stood up from his chair.
He had immediately caught a glimpse of her from when Gu Jingze had entered the room. However, he had been momentarily shocked. On top of that, he even saw Lin Che accompanying Gu Jingze. He could not help but feel his spirits dampen.
Lin Che looked at Qin Qing in shock before tilting her head to look at Gu Jingze.
What was going on here?
