Chapter 1001

In view of the previous incident and the two monks at the old residence, Gu Han still decided to bring Jin Chen along back.

This time Jin Chen's clothes were much more normal than last time, but whenever he saw him change into casual clothes, Gu Han always felt something odd.

It seemed as if Jin Chen had split into two people.

Wearing a tailcoat, he acted as the butler, aloof yet proper, respectful and polite.

Changing into casual clothes, he became a little lover, clingy and proactive, always saying ambiguous things.

This really is too easy to misunderstand.

But to this day, Gu Han had not gotten any clue that Jin Chen liked him, yet he was absolutely certain.

He really loves me.

Gu Han thought, while fastening the seatbelt he was still sizing up the man who got out and opened the door, when suddenly their eyes met.

Before Gu Han could look away, he saw Jin Chen smiling with eyes curved, 'Gu CEO, we've arrived.'

... Mm.

Gu Han's lips also unconsciously curved, he opened the car door and naturally took Jin Chen's hand.

The two entered the old residence side by side.

Before even entering the Living Room, they heard Shen Yanyu's weak crying.

Upon entering, they first saw Shen Yanyu's reddened eyes from crying and his fragile expression; as their gaze shifted, they saw Gu Yeting sitting nearby with a look as if watching a show, while Bai Yunyue... wanted to speak but held back.

Gu Han stared at him for two seconds, only snapping back when Jin Chen tugged his hand, then he brought the person to sit beside Old Master.

It's not even weekend, Grandfather, why did you have me come back to the old residence?

Old Master had been listening to the crying for nearly half an hour; now his head ached badly, and his tone unconsciously grew stern.

You bullied my younger brother?

Gu Han: 'I'm busy with work all day; I don't have that leisure.'

After saying that, he looked toward Shen Yanyu, whose tears had finally stopped, 'You study at school; how could I have bullied you?'

Thus Shen Yanyu explained what happened today once again.

But he didn't know whether it was intentional or forgotten, and he didn't mention the matter of his identity.

After hearing that, Gu Han's face darkened; he put his arm around Jin Chen's waist and leaned back, his tone growing cold.

First, I'm busy and have no time to care which department recruited new interns.

Second, you didn't notify me in advance about coming to the group for an internship, and it's not like you lack my contact information.

Finally, the Gu Clan Group rejects all nepotism.

When saying this, his gaze glared straight at Gu Yeting, as if pointing at something.

The originally spectating Gu Yeting's face instantly darkened.

Bai Yunyue sighed, patted his hand, and quietly offered a few words of comfort.

Withdrawing his gaze, Gu Han looked at Shen Yanyu again, "If your résumé were strong enough, you wouldn't be screened out."

Shen Yanyu wasn't listening to what he was saying at all.

Immersed wholly in his thoughts, he felt only extreme grief and indignation.

This is the result of not being valued; no one took his words to heart… In fact, just last month he had mentioned wanting to do an internship.

Having lived with the Gu Family for these two years, these relatives actually cared for him less than Li Yuan did……

Shen Yanyu sobbed, whispering a rebuttal.

"What I told Gu Han last month was that you simply don't remember."

Gu Han didn't want to argue about this with him; if it weren't for his grandfather still being here, he wouldn't even have the mood to sit here.

"Let me see your résumé."

Shen Yanyu took a fresh copy from his bag and handed it to him.

Jin Chen was curious too, leaning in to look; the tyrant CEO's residence was extremely close, Gu Han gave a light cough, thinking Xiao Yaojing was starting to act up again.

The punishment class pinched Jin Chen's waist and whispered, "We're still at the old residence; no making a fuss."

Jin Chen: "……?"

I just wanted to look at the résumé! Really!

He didn't move, instead turning his hand to grasp Gu Han's hand resting on his waist, and continued looking at the résumé.

A few seconds later.

The two of them: "……"

Gu Han laughed in exasperation.

The tyrant CEO could not tolerate such a fish-in-troubled-waters employee under him!

The résumé was flung onto the desk, Gu Han's voice ice-cold: "This résumé, aside from introducing your name and school, contains no useful information whatsoever."

As the résumé was flung, Shen Yanyu shuddered along with it.

His fingers dug deep into the leather Sofa, Shen Yanyu pouted and felt like crying again.

"I… I never learned it before, no one ever taught me, I really can't."

Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, thinking: the protagonist's love interest, Shen Yanyu, had been an orphan living alone before age seventeen.

It's no wonder he developed a personality so unlike the Gu Family's, but having been back home for nearly five years, both the Gu and Shen families dote on him whenever they can.

Moreover, even if we concede a thousand steps……

They even teach résumé-writing in university! How can you blame it on experience before adulthood?

But the Gu Family, with their unconventional thinking, wouldn't dwell on such details.

Old Master Gu tapped his cane a few times, then declared definitively, "All right, it's just an internship spot; I, the Old Master, have the final say—Xiao Yu, you'll start your internship at the corporation tomorrow."

"Xiao Han, you're the older brother, and since childhood you've been groomed as the one to hold power, so you should also look after him a bit."

The spectator Gu Yeting finally interjected, "Why not arrange for Xiao Yu to come to my place?"

Gu Han is such a busy person; what could Xiao Yu learn by following him?

Gu Han: "Indeed, I can't compare to your leisure; as the Headquarters General Manager, I miss four out of five workdays, don't attend meetings about projects, and the secretary has filed complaints against me to you."

If Young Uncle's legs are inconvenient and he can't come to work, how about I send you a wheelchair another day?

Gu Yeting: "......"

His face turned livid with anger.

I haven't even said you're sick! Which group senior executive would make you look like this, wanting to live at the headquarters all day; your little lover probably doesn't even have time to be pampered!

Jin Chen, who was watching the battle, heard the key words; half a second later he covered his face in embarrassment, "Gu CEO is really impressive."

What seems like an irrelevant remark, but everyone present is a seasoned adult.

Gu Yeting's mouth twitched—is that the point!

Gu Old Master coughed heavily, "Enough! As an elder, what are you arguing with the juniors for? From now on, whenever anyone comes home for a meal, no fighting allowed!"

Having said that, he went upstairs to take his medicine with the help of the old steward.

Just like that, the topic was closed; Shen Yanyu obtained the opportunity to intern at the Gu Clan headquarters, yet she was not as happy as imagined.

He thought it was his own coercion that forced his grandfather to agree.

Even Han Brother was unwilling to let him stay by his side.

Moreover… moreover, this little lover—they even care more about this person! Not even a nameless little lover can compare; isn't this just looking down on him!

Shen Yanyu grew more upset the more she thought, sobbing as she left heartbroken and ran back to her room.

"Don't always argue in front of Dad," Bai Yunyue advised Gu Yeting, her expression helpless yet gentle, "Each time don't make him angry enough to need medicine."

"Are you speaking up for Gu Han?"

Gu Yeting narrowed his eyes coldly, swept Bai Yunyue into his arms in one motion, as if no one else were present, holding her close.

"Don't talk back to me for someone else's sake, even if it's your own biological son."

Gu Yeting, angry, spoke into his ear.

Bai Yunyue, afraid Gu Han would hear, hurriedly nodded and begged for mercy.
