The secretary hurried over, bowed, and respectfully introduced, "Mr. Gu, this is the project manager for the wind energy project. They are here for the meeting."
"Mmm," Gu Yunting retracted his gaze from Ye Wan's face and strode away expressionlessly.
"Mr. Gu, this is the European shipping project. It requires your signature," the project manager scurried after him, holding a document.
Gu Yunting took the document, glanced at it, signed, and handed it back in one smooth motion, without stopping.
Ye Wan watched the receding figure of the man and lowered her head slightly. So this was how he worked, strategizing and commanding as if he were a king looking down on everything, and she could never achieve such success.
Indeed, the gap between them was like heaven and earth, cloud and mud, destined from the beginning.
"Wow, was that Gu Corporation's CEO, Gu Yunting, just now? He's so handsome!"
"That's the man who stands in the clouds, so charming! I believe no woman can escape his allure." Li Yun agreed wholeheartedly.
"Let's go, it's time," Mr. Zhao led the three of them and their secretaries to a conference room.
The person in charge of liaising with them was a manager. Ye Wan diligently recorded all the details discussed by the representatives and technical staff, taking notes and translating them into English for future reference.
As the two parties were in discussion, the office door opened. Several people looked up and saw Gu Yunting walk in, followed by his secretary.
Gu Yunting's arrival caused everyone in the conference room to unconsciously stand up and greet him respectfully. Ye Wan also stood up with the others, keeping her head slightly lowered and remaining silent. She could sense the admiration and infatuation everyone felt towards Gu Yunting.
"Please be seated, everyone. Mr. Gu just finished a meeting and came to listen to this new project. Mr. Gu is very interested in this type of new energy project," the secretary said, pulling out a chair for Gu Yunting. He sat down.
"Continue, I'm listening." Gu Yunting's expression was stern, and his voice carried a detached coldness.
The manager immediately placed a document in front of Gu Yunting, and the discussion resumed. However, Ye Wan's mind went blank until her leg was kicked, jolting her back to awareness.
The person who kicked her was Gu Yunting himself, seated at the head of the table. She dared not look at him, fearing that others might discover their relationship. Gu Yunting's deep gaze lingered on her for a moment before he withdrew his eyes.
The representatives from both sides were seated opposite each other, so Ye Wan was positioned just one chair away from Gu Yunting, which also meant his legs were long enough...
The two sides continued to communicate on the project details. Gu Yunting was engrossed in reading the documents, and Ye Wan couldn't help but doubt if he could understand them. It was impossible for him to know everything about new energy, wasn't it?
Ten minutes later, Ye Wan was proven wrong. Gu Yunting interrupted the negotiation and precisely pointed out the significant issues in their discussion, then provided his suggestions for revision.
The wind energy company's representatives were clearly surprised that the CEO of Gu Corporation was so proficient in this field. His knowledge was no less than that of the technical staff. The crowd's initial admiration for Gu Yunting slowly turned into deep respect.
After the meeting concluded, Mr. Zhao led his team away. Xiao Li and Zhao Yun excitedly discussed Gu Yunting. Xiao Li had practically deified Gu Yunting, making him his lifelong aspiration.
Ye Wan remained silent. She had always known Gu Yunting was outstanding, but she hadn't realized his caliber was truly beyond the reach of ordinary people.
At least, her own abilities were nothing compared to him. She suddenly felt a pang of inferiority.
In the evening, Ye Wan was lying on her bed, contemplating how to buy a lottery ticket. She had already devised countless combinations, but buying them all would be too expensive. As she was lost in her thoughts, the door was pushed open, and Gu Yunting walked in.
Ye Wan's eyes lit up at the sight of him and she immediately got out of bed. It was the first time since their last encounter that she had eagerly awaited his return...
