Xia Yangyang didn’t want to leave Gu Qichen’s office.

Because she knew, as soon as she stepped out, she would definitely become the center of everyone’s gossip again.

She decided to take shelter inside.

Gu Qichen was already at work, this man was busy every day. Shengyuan Group was the business empire his father, Gu Shengyuan, built from scratch. It had developed over half a century, expanding Shengyuan’s business into various industries, especially Shengyuan Real Estate, which is the industry leader.

The man before her, engrossed in his work, was now worth hundreds of billions.

Though Xia Yangyang also came from a wealthy background, her father is the chairman of Starlight International, a media tycoon, with properties including talent agencies, newspapers, and publishing houses.

Even so, there was still a gap between the Xia Family and the Gu Family.

In addition to a vast family business, the Gu Family also had a powerful political background. Therefore, the Gu Family has always held first place among the four major families.

Xia Yangyang used to hear her father mention Gu Qichen, calling him a rare business talent in a century, but what people talked about more was Gu Qichen’s origin.

Because Gu Shengyuan is almost eighty now, and Gu Qichen is only 27. It’s said that Gu Shengyuan had a son late in life, but it is common knowledge that Gu Shengyuan’s first wife died shortly after giving birth to Gu Qichen’s sister, Gu Mingzhu. Gu Shengyuan remained a widower for many years, but he unexpectedly had a son at the age of fifty.

There were many rumors about this. Some said that Gu Qichen was Gu Shengyuan’s illegitimate son, while others said he was an orphan Gu Shengyuan adopted. When Gu Qichen was 17, Gu Shengyuan handed his huge business empire to him, and now it’s been exactly ten years.

Xia Yangyang could not imagine how a seventeen-year-old boy managed to hold up such a business empire. It was said that at first, some of Shengyuan’s old shareholders even threatened suicide, thinking that handing over Shengyuan to a child was a big joke. However, today, everyone at Shengyuan deeply admires him, and Shengyuan’s industry is flourishing with an unshakeable status.

Gu Qichen has always been a miracle in the business world.

“Xia Yangyang, if you continue staring at me, I will not be able to bear it.”

Gu Qichen’s deep voice came from across his desk. Xia Yangyang froze when she realized she had been staring at Gu Qichen for quite some time.

Xia Yangyang’s face flushed as she quickly stood up from the sofa: “I’ll go back to work.”

As soon as Xia Yangyang returned to her desk, her colleagues crowded around: “Yangyang, are you okay? Did the chairman reprimand you?”

Xia Yangyang shook her head: “I’m fine. There’s no need for you all to worry.”

Lin Yuanyuan remarked: “Even if the boss personally scolds you, it’s a kind of happiness, isn’t it? Out of all the secretaries in the office, Yangyang has been to the chairman’s office the most. We don’t even have a chance to catch a glimpse. Yangyang, I’m really envious of you.”

Hearing Lin Yuanyuan say this, someone teased: “Yuanyuan, you haven’t fallen for the boss, have you?”

With that, Lin Yuanyuan’s face turned bright red: “What are you talking about? I didn’t.”

Someone flattered Lin Yuanyuan: “Even if you do, there’s nothing wrong. Your Lin Family is one of the four major families in Feng City. As Lin Family’s miss, you are a perfect match for the Gu family. You’re also very beautiful, and you’re the only intern who was hired directly. It proves that the boss also likes you very much. Perhaps one day, you will become our madam chairman.”

Lin Yuanyuan’s face turned even redder as she said: “What madam chairman? I’ve never thought about it. Please stop saying nonsense.”

“Look, Yuanyuan’s blushing. Our future madam chairman is shy.” A group of people started to tease.

In an instant, the focus of everyone shifted from Xia Yangyang. Finally, Xia Yangyang took a sigh of relief.
