"Alright."

The mess left behind by Han Siming still had to be sorted out by Jian Ran and Gu Mochen.

After all, although this incident affected the Gu Family, it was unrelated to Gu Group itself. However, since it involved an internal shareholder, it had a serious impact on the reputation of the Gu Family.

This President Wu... might not be so easy to deal with.

Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes flickered with contemplation, as she sat in the lounge area, waiting for the receptionist’s reply.

Before long, the secretary proactively approached and spoke with utmost respect, "I’m sorry, Manager Jian, President Wu is not in the office today."

"Hm, that’s unfortunate. Just now, when I was in the lobby, I went to the garage first... President Wu’s car is there... I heard President Wu is very persistent about the things he likes, he sticks to them, never abandons them, and certainly wouldn’t hand them over for someone else’s use."

After finishing her words, Jian Ran curved her lips into a faint smile, her gaze deep and meaningful as she looked at the secretary before her and whispered.

"I think... you might have seen wrong, please... help me make another appointment."

Secretary: "..."

So impressive.

The secretary swallowed hard, knowing since yesterday that the woman before her was tough to handle, and indeed she was as difficult as anticipated today.

"Yes, alright... I apologize, Manager Jian."

"It’s okay, I know that subordinates are at the mercy of their superiors’ orders; you’ve been troubled."

"Alright."

...

Jian Ran continued to wait calmly, although she had rested for a while in Gu Mochen’s office at noon, she still felt a bit drained.

It wasn’t long before the secretary approached again, trembling with apprehension.

"Manager Jian, President Wu says since you already know everything, and you’re so eloquent, he’ll not beat around the bush; this matter.

..although the Gu Family has responded publicly today, President Wu is not convinced.

.. it is the fault of the Gu Family, and the Gu Family should bear the responsibility alone. "

Jian Ran nodded her head.

So... it’s Han Siming’s fault, but the Gu Family is taking the blame.

For the time being, it’s probably difficult to immediately dispel the public opinion.

At this moment, garnering President Wu’s support is especially critical.

Thinking of this, Jian Ran spoke calmly, "So, President Wu still doesn’t wish to see me?"

"Yes, President Wu has asked me to persuade you to leave."

"No need, I don’t have much else to do anyway, I will just wait here for President Wu; thanks for your help..."

"Alright."

Seeing the firmness in Jian Ran’s beautiful eyes, the secretary naturally couldn’t say much, merely nodding and quickly retreating.

After the secretary left, Jian Ran extended her hand to gently touch her lower abdomen.

In the past week, the Gu Family had dominated headlines in Yuncheng City, showing no signs of subsiding.

Moreover... the revelation of Han Siming’s background brought a torrent of scandals from Gu Wei’s past, sweeping over everything.

Nobility... as chaotic as it gets.

Jian Ran ignored it all, quietly waiting for President Wu’s off work time. Her phone rang, she took it out to see, it was Gu Mochen calling.

"I just called the design department, but nobody answered the phone, where are you?"

"Um... I’m at Dongyue... to meet with President Wu, hoping he can drop the lawsuit against the Gu Family, President Wu and Dongyue are old brands in Yuncheng City.

.. If they could withdraw the lawsuit, it should serve as a guide for other partners, and it may also dilute the public opinion, after all.

.. lawsuits are costly and hurt people, mainly. .. they don’t look good."

Jian Ran pursed her lips lightly, helplessly looking in the direction of the elevator, and spoke in a soft voice.
