Chapter 107
People on the team can come to the sixth floor to drink coffee or walk on the treadmills after they are tired from work.
The fitness equipment is very complete.
Although Gu Lao is advanced in age, he usually pays great attention to balancing work and rest.
When Gu Cheng arrived on the sixth floor, he saw his grandfather walking on a treadmill.
He ran over in a few large strides.
"Grandfather, I finally found you."
Hearing his grandson's voice, Gu Lao almost tripped on the treadmill; he immediately grabbed the treadmill, glanced at Gu Cheng, and said with some disdain, "Why did you come here?"
"You haven't seen me for several days, Grandfather, don't you miss me?" Gu Cheng asked with some resentment.
Gu Lao snorted, "What is there to miss about you?"
Gu Cheng was used to being treated with disdain and didn't think much of it. He turned on a treadmill next to him and said while walking, "Old man, you look down on me, but I don't like you that much either, okay? I just think you are getting old, and sometimes your eyesight must not be very good."
"My eyesight is very good. I just restored a Blue and White Porcelain vase yesterday. Age doesn't determine anything. If you, stinky brat, have something to say, just say it directly; there is no need to be sarcastic." Gu Lao glared at Gu Cheng.
This brat grew up in front of him since he was a child, and he knew exactly what kind of character he had.
Now that he had come over in a huff, he definitely still wanted to push that young girl he mentioned earlier.
He had carefully looked at the young girl's resume over the past two days.
Although there were photos proving what she had restored, things like photos could be fabricated, but a resume could not deceive people.
Judging by the young girl's qualifications, she could not have restored the items in the photos.
That young girl was not honest.
There could not be dishonest people in his team.
"I am talking to you seriously. Shu Xia is truly very capable. The two paintings she restored for Zhang Dechun have now been sent to an auction house. I saw with my own eyes how she restored them at Zhang Dechun's place every day. To say something that might make you unhappy, I think she restores better than you do." Gu Cheng was truly anxious.
Gu Lao did not believe it at all, "Don't use these excuses to fool your grandfather."
"How about this, old man, I will resign from Zhang Dechun's place and come to focus on learning from you. The condition is that you interview Shu Xia. If she is really as incompetent as you say, I will live in this building for the next year and study from the basics every day, how about that? You won't get another chance like this. In our family, only I have some talent in this area. You can't count on anyone else for your skills; you can only count on passing them to me." Gu Cheng gritted his teeth and made a decision.
Gu Lao was so angry he gritted his teeth, but he had truly been caught by this stinky brat's weak spot.
Fine.
He would see what kind of love potion that young girl had fed Gu Cheng, and whether she had any ability; everything would be revealed once she stood before him.
"Fine, have her come tomorrow."
Gu Cheng scratched his head, "You should call her through official channels; she doesn't know yet that I am your grandson."
This time, Gu Lao was a bit surprised, "She doesn't know your identity?"
He always felt that this brat was lying to him.
"Yes, she doesn't know. She thinks I am just an ordinary worker, and sometimes she even thinks I might not have enough to eat. Shu Xia is not the kind of girl you think she is. You will know once you see her." Gu Cheng felt a bit awkward, feeling as if the old man had discovered one of his secrets.
Gu Lao stopped the treadmill, wiped his sweat, and squinted at Gu Cheng, "Fine, whether she is the kind of girl I think she is, I'll wait and see."
Was he about to have a great-grandson?
Gu Cheng, feeling a bit guilty from Gu Lao's stare, hurriedly said, "Let's go, my uncle is getting engaged tonight. My parents can't make it back, so you and I must go."
Gu Lao glanced at the time, "I almost forgot because you didn't mention it."
Gu Cheng's mouth twitched. The old man could even forget his own youngest son's engagement party, yet he still stubbornly claimed to have a good memory. His mouth was truly stubborn!
——
Just after Shu Xia returned to Xinghai Villa, a photo sent by Jiang Nannan appeared on her phone.
Qiao Muting and Shen Anran were raising their glasses and talking.
There were other people around them as well.
