Hearing Zhao Xuan’s suggestion, Gu Dai experienced a momentary panic in her mind. After all, she was the chairwoman, and she was currently present. How could she possibly make a phone call?

Song Ling, perceiving Gu Dai’s panic, smiled and said, “What’s the matter? Getting scared? We were in a relationship for three years. If you end up being fired because of this, 1 can graciously offer you a secretarial position at Song Corporation.”

Gu Dai glanced at Song Ling, her response cool and aloof, “There’s no need, and when have 1 ever been scared?”

Quickly, Gu Dai pulled out her phone and dialed a number. The call was answered promptly on the other end.

Fang Xiao picked up, “Chairwoman Gu, do you have any instructions?”

With a chuckle, Gu Dai said to Fang Xiao, “Chairwoman Gu, President Song of Song Corporation claims he has a project to discuss with you. However, I don’t remember scheduling this meeting. Is this a last-minute change?”

Fang Xiao, after checking her phone several times and verifying that it indeed showed Gu Dai, asked in confusion, “Chairwoman Gu, what’s going on? I’m Fang Xiao; you are Chairwoman Gu!”

Ignoring Fang Xiao’s confusion, Gu Dai said, “Alright, 1 understand. I’ll reject him right away.”

Fang Xiao felt a sense of unease after the phone call ended. She began to wonder if this was Gu Dai testing her. There was no other plausible reason she could think of, considering she was just a department manager.

Turning to Song Ling, Gu Dai spoke with an unbiased and straightforward tone, “I’m sorry, but Chairwoman Gu said she didn’t have an appointment with you.”

Zhao Xuan was taken aback and blurted out, “How can that be possible?

Secretary Zhang clearly mentioned that Chairwoman Gu had agreed.”

Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed as she repeated, “Zhang Hui?”

Instantly, Zhao Xuan felt a sense of dread and stuttered, “Yes, yes.”

Gu Dai nodded, “Okay, 1’11 inform Chairwoman Gu about this. You two can leave now.”

Zhao Xuan, startled by Gu Dai’s dismissal even after he had made everything clear, wanted to argue but was silenced by Song Ling.

With a displeased expression, Song Ling spoke with an edge in his voice, “This is a gift for Chairwoman Gu. Please pass it on. Zhao Xuan, let’s go.”

Feeling the icy air emanating from Song Ling, Zhao Xuan treaded carefully, wary of provoking Song Ling. Despite his best efforts, he couldn’t seem to avoid stepping on a landmine.

Song Ling’s face was a mask of darkness as he asked, “1 asked you to investigate Gu Dai, yet you failed to find out that she works at Gu Group. Is this your standard of work?”

Zhao Xuan hung his head low, tried to form a sentence, but in the end, nothing came out.

He had tried his best to investigate but had genuinely found no information indicating Gu Dai’s affiliation with the Gu Group.

Suddenly, Zhao Xuan had a thought and looked up at Song Ling, quietly suggesting, “President Song, could Gu Dai be the chairwoman of Gu Group?”

Song Ling immediately dismissed the idea, “That’s impossible!”

Although they both carried the Gu surname and Gu Dai had surfaced three years ago with amnesia around the same time the Gu family’s young lady had disappeared, the possibility of them being the same person seemed too far-fetched.

Song Ling repeatedly dismissed the idea in his mind. Still, as time passed, his heart became heavier. A few minutes later, he ordered Zhao Xuan, “Check again, investigate more carefully!”

Reluctant to undertake the task, Zhao Xuan could only reply, “Yes.”

After Gu Dai watched Song Ling leave, she turned her gaze to the gift left on the table. She picked it up and brought it into her office, nonchalantly tossing it into a pile of clutter.

Soon after, a knock echoed through the office, and Fang Xiao, who had been feeling uneasy since their last conversation, entered.

Upon being granted permission to enter, she looked at Gu Dai, who sat behind her desk, and went straight to the point, “Chairwoman Gu, I swear I have not betrayed the company!”

Gu Dai took a second to understand what she meant. Once she did, she responded, “I know. I needed your assistance with an urgent matter earlier. Sorry for interrupting your work. I’ll tell Lin Sheng to give you a raise.”

Fang Xiao’s eyes lit up as she quickly said, “It’s no trouble at all, serving Chairwoman Gu is my honor!”

Fang Xiao’s reaction caused Gu Dai to chuckle, her irritation at encountering Song Ling first thing in the morning had somewhat faded. “That’s all. You can get back to work now..”
