Chapter 151   Who Dares to Say Anything?

Yan Xi returned to her room to read, but, as expected, she couldn’t focus.

Her mind was filled with that kiss from Gu Shen. She touched her lips, then fell onto the bed with a red face. She wrapped herself in the blanket and rolled around.

Her phone suddenly rang, indicating that she had received a new email.

Yan Xi opened it. As expected, it was from Zhou Xu.

“Senior, Professor Qin Liang, who I hired to perform acupuncture for Mr. Gu, suddenly went back on his words and wants to leave our specialist group this time.”

Yan Xi frowned. “Why does he want to quit?”

Soon, she received a message.

“Professor Qin Liang feels that he didn’t get enough attention in the team, and that he isn’t valued because he’s only assigned the task of doing acupuncture.”

“Did you tell him that he has already signed a confidentiality agreement?”

“I did. Professor Qin is from a family of TCM and is experienced in acupuncture. He thinks that I specialize in Western medicine and can’t handle this matter.)

“It’s not up to him to decide if he can handle it or not. Gu Shen has already agreed to this proposal, so he has no right to change it. However, you can take some time to hold a meeting in the expert group to answer their questions. If anyone objects to this proposal, they can leave.”

Yan Xi helped Zhou Xu sort out the possible questions and answers. After sending it, she gently closed the computer.

When she gathered the group of experts, she had already considered this problem. Some people thought highly of themselves and always wanted their opinions to be above others.

This was not a good thing.

Moreover, the core of Gu Shen’s treatment this time was spinal nerve surgery, and acupuncture was just the early auxiliary treatment.

Therefore, Zhou Xu, who was the only one who could perform surgery other than her, was very important. His status in the specialist group could not be challenged.

As for the rest of the people, if they kicked up a fuss, they would be kicked out.

The next morning, the Gu Electronics held a morning meeting.

Gu Shen sat in the middle and listened to the finance director’s report absent-mindedly.

Gu Er also realized that something was wrong. He noticed that Gu Shen would touch his lips from time to time.

It was probably because it was almost autumn and his lips were dry.

Gu Er felt that he should do something, so he sent a message in the group chat.

“Who has unused lip balm?”

Secretary Chen, who was closest to him, was the first to respond.

“Why do you need lip balm?”

“To curry favor with the boss!” Gu Er sent a proud emoticon with his hands on his hips. “As the boss’s personal secretary, you actually failed to notice that President Gu’s lips are dry.”

Secretary Chen rolled her eyes.

“Lip balm is not something you should give to President Gu. President Gu has lip balm with strawberries on it.” With that, she posted a photo in the chat.

“Is this something President Gu uses?”

Curious, the group of people started asking.

After the morning meeting ended, Gu Er reported the progress of the Gu family’s hotel project to Gu Shen.

“The concept of the Smart Hotel has attracted many people. The number of booked hotel rooms has increased by 30% compared to last month. With this momentum, the turnover this month might exceed the previous two quarters.”

Gu Shen remained calm, not excited at the news. With a nod nodded, he added, “Keep it

up.”

“Understood.”

“Also, shift the focus of your work to the Gu Electronics.”

Gu Er nodded. “Yes.”

After finishing his work, Gu Shen asked about Gu Sheng again. He pinched the space between his eyebrows, looking annoyed. “Where is Gu Sheng now?”

“He was in Moscow last week and secretly returned home this week. He’s in City N now and is using a different identity.”

Everyone in the Gu family had two identities just in case of emergency.

Gu Shen lowered his eyes. “Keep an eye on him. Don’t tell the media about his return for the time being.”

Gu Er nodded and went to do what Gu Shen instructed.
