Chapter 40

"What exactly did you dream about?"

Ye Feng frowned. In recent days, his father's image had become increasingly mysterious in his heart, but Ye Feng always felt that this didn't seem like a good thing.

"I don't remember the specifics, anyway, you be careful lately!"

Shen Yurou gripped Ye Feng's hand tightly, a stone hanging in her heart that couldn't be put down for a long time.

Ye Feng nodded. Combining the things that had happened recently, he indeed should be careful!

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

At this moment, Ye Feng's phone suddenly rang. He opened it and saw a message from Gu Ran: "Ye Feng, did something happen at home? Why didn't you come to work today?"

Seeing the message, Ye Feng slapped his forehead and thought to himself: "Oh no, I forgot I'm a person with a job now!"

Seeing Ye Feng's appearance, Shen Yurou asked confusedly: "What's wrong?"

Ye Feng hurriedly got up, helped Shen Yurou up, and said: "There's an urgent matter at the company, I'll go over there for a bit. Take good care of yourself at home!"

After speaking, Ye Feng casually put on a jacket and walked out the door.

After getting into a taxi, Ye Feng took out his phone and replied to Gu Ran: "President Gu, sorry, I was delayed by something at home. I'll be there right away!"

As soon as he arrived at the company, Ye Feng was stopped by Gu Ran's assistant, Li Feng!

"Ye Feng, why are you only coming now? Do you know how long you've been late?"

Li Feng's tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction, his eyes full of sarcasm.

Ye Feng frowned, his tone calm: "Assistant Li, I was delayed by something at home, sorry."

Li Feng sneered, his tone carrying a hint of disdain: "Something at home?"

"Did you ask for leave?"

"Do you think this company was opened by your family? You can be late whenever you want. President Gu has been waiting for you for half a day!"

Ye Feng felt somewhat displeased, but still remained calm: "Assistant Li, I don't seem to be under your management, right? I'll go explain to President Gu!"

Li Feng blocked Ye Feng, his tone carrying a hint of provocation: "Explain?"

"Do you think President Gu will listen to your explanation?"

"Ye Feng, don't think that just because you have President Gu's backing, you can do whatever you want."

"The company has company rules. Being late is being late; there's nothing to explain!"

Ye Feng's face sank, his tone carrying a hint of coldness: "Assistant Li, I admit I'm late. Now I'm going to work, please move aside, I'm going to see President Gu!"

Li Feng still refused to move, his tone carrying a hint of mockery: "Ye Feng, don't think I don't know what you're planning."

"You're just a driver, do you really take yourself seriously?"

"Let me tell you, President Gu is not someone you can climb up to!"

A hint of anger flashed in Ye Feng's eyes, and he was about to erupt when he suddenly heard Gu Ran's voice behind him: "Li Feng, what are you doing?"

Li Feng's face turned ugly instantly. He hurriedly turned to look at Gu Ran, his tone carrying a hint of panic: "President Gu, I... I was just reminding Ye Feng that he was late today."

Gu Ran glanced at Li Feng coldly, her tone carrying a hint of displeasure: "I will handle the matter of Ye Feng being late."

"You just do your own work and don't meddle in other people's business!"

Li Feng's face turned even uglier, but he didn't dare to refute and could only lower his head and say: "Yes, President Gu."

Gu Ran didn't pay any more attention to Li Feng but walked to Ye Feng, her tone carrying a hint of concern: "Ye Feng, did something happen at home? Why did you come so late?"

Ye Feng nodded, his tone carrying a hint of apology: "President Gu, sorry, I was delayed by something at home. It won't happen next time."

Gu Ran waved her hand, her tone relaxed: "It's okay, family matters are important."

"However, remember to tell me in advance if you have something next time, so I can make arrangements."

Ye Feng nodded, his tone carrying a hint of gratitude: "Thank you, President Gu."

Gu Ran smiled, her tone carrying a hint of teasing: "Alright, don't be so polite. Go prepare the car first, we're going to Tianhai Technology Group in a bit."

Ye Feng nodded and turned to walk toward the garage.

However, he hadn't walked a few steps when he heard Li Feng mutter in a low voice: "Hmph, just a driver, really taking himself seriously..."

Ye Feng's footsteps paused slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, but he didn't look back and continued walking forward.

He knew Li Feng had always been hostile toward him, but now was not the time to fuss over these things!

As for Li Feng, he was just a clown!

After Ye Feng prepared the car, he called Gu Ran: "President Gu, the car is ready, we can set off."

Gu Ran came downstairs quickly and got into the car.

Ye Feng started the car and drove toward the direction of Tianhai Technology Group.

Along the way, Gu Ran's expression was somewhat grave, clearly full of anticipation and pressure regarding this meeting.

"Ye Feng, this cooperation with Tianhai Technology is very important to us, you must be careful."

Gu Ran said in a low voice.

Ye Feng nodded, his tone firm: "President Gu, don't worry, I will pay attention."

Arriving at Tianhai Technology Group, Ye Feng parked the car, and the two walked into the building together.

This time, the security guard at the entrance didn't stop them but instead bowed respectfully: "President Gu, Mr. Ye, please come in."

Gu Ran and Ye Feng looked at each other and smiled, walking straight into the building.

Arriving at the door of the president's office, Gu Ran knocked lightly, and a low voice came from inside: "Come in."

Pushing the door open, the two walked in.

Inside the office, a young man wearing a black suit was sitting behind the desk, holding a document in his hand, his expression focused.

Hearing footsteps, he looked up, his gaze falling on Gu Ran and Ye Feng.

"President Gu, long time no see."

The young man stood up, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Gu Ran was stunned for a moment, then recognized the other party: "President Li? Why is it you?"

The young man smiled, his tone carrying a hint of teasing: "Why, is President Gu very surprised?"

"The president of Tianhai Technology Group is me now."

Ye Feng stood behind Gu Ran, his gaze vigilantly sizing up this young man.

He looked to be only about thirty years old, but he exuded a powerful aura; he was clearly not an ordinary person.

Gu Ran quickly regained her composure, her tone carrying a hint of politeness: "President Li, I didn't expect you to take over Tianhai Technology Group at such a young age. You are truly young and promising."

The young man waved his hand, his tone relaxed: "President Gu is too polite."

"Please sit down, let's talk about the cooperation."

Gu Ran and Ye Feng sat down on the sofa. The young man personally poured two cups of tea for them, then sat opposite them, his tone carrying a hint of deep meaning: "President Gu, Tianhai Technology Group attaches great importance to this cooperation."

"However, I have a condition."

Gu Ran's brows furrowed slightly, her tone carrying a hint of vigilance: "President Li, please go ahead."

The young man smiled and sized Gu Ran up: "I want to marry into the Gu family!"
