Gu Shaotingâs car was like a road hog, and everyone couldnât help but look in his direction.
Shu Pan wanted to keep a low profile, so she asked him to drop her further away from her office. Who knew that this man had so much difficulty keeping a low profile?
When Shu Pan got out of the car, she got a lot of strange looks from her colleagues, which made her face burn. She carried her bag and walked hurriedly to her office building; she even forgot to say goodbye to Joy and Gu Shaoting.
After Shu Pan disappeared from his sight, Gu Shaoting turned his head and said to Joy, âMommyâs at work. Letâs go to my work now.â
He then drove to Gu Group. At this time, Gu Shaoting still didnât know what kind of explosive news he would cause by bringing Joy to work.
His and Shu Panâs offices werenât too far apart, so it was quite fast to get there by car.
Gu Group was a leader of industry in Bin City.
Shu Pan got busy very quickly at the office. There was a lot of information to be collated and she needed to prepare everything carefully.
Because of what happened in the morning, rumors about Shu Pan were flying in the office but all she could do was to let out a bitter chuckle. She didnât care much about gossip.
âShu Pan, there seems to be something you havenât told me today.â Tang Wei smiled slyly.
âWhat do you want to know?â Shu Pan asked as she busied herself with work.
âEveryone is talking about your boyfriend. They say that you two are living together and that he sent you to work this morning.â It was such a waste of talent that Tang Wei wasnât a paparazzo.
She could get all kinds of information.
âWould you believe me if I told you that heâs just a friend and I just hitched a ride with him?â Shu Pan was too lazy to explain herself.
âDo you have such a good friend whoâll give you a ride so early in the morning? Tang Wei said with a skeptical look on her face.
âDoesnât matter if you donât believe me. Get back to work and stop gossiping.â
Shu Pan went to find her director with a pile of documents after she said that.
Tang Wei was left standing on the spot. She stroked her chin and smiled. âAs expected, somethingâs up.â
Meanwhile at Gu Group, Gu Shaoting caused a commotion at the office lobby by bringing Joy to work.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Everyone found it unbelievable that their CEO brought a child to work today. Moreover, this child looked like him.
Although some tabloids had reported that the CEO had an illegitimate
daughter, the information was never verified.
When people saw him with a little girl now, rumors started flying again. Some people wouldnât believe it and guessed that the little girl was a kid of the CEOâs relative.
Obviously, these people didnât know CEO Gu well. Was he the kind of person who would eagerly babysit a relativeâs kid?
Gu Shaoting ignored everyone and walked into his exclusive elevator holding Joyâs hand.
The rest of the people waiting for elevators at the lobby saw that although their CEO Gu was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, he didnât look out of place taking care of a child.
As Gu Shaoting had an early morning meeting, he carried Joy into the conference room, and Joy sat quietly beside him.
Her tiny face that was almost identical to Gu Shaotingâs shocked the senior managers in the room, and everyone whispered about it.
Joy was very obedient and didnât make a fuss. She felt that her Uncle Gu was very powerful when he spoke.
Because no one dared to make a sound when her Uncle Gu spoke.
Gu Shaoting was worried that Joy would be bored, so he kept the meeting brief and ended it after hearing everyoneâs status updates.
Back in his office, Joy didnât dare to run around and sat on the sofa. She remembered her Mommyâs words.
âUncle Gu, youâre so impressive. Everyone must listen to you. I want to be like you in the future.â Joy made up her mind to learn from her Uncle Gu.
âThen you must study hard so youâll be like Uncle one day.â Gu Shaoting took the opportunity to educate her. Actually, his daughter was a princess and didnât need to work too hard.
But he knew that Shu Pan would lecture him if she knew his parenting philosophy. That was why he told Joy so seriously in that teachable moment..
