Chapter 41 - 41: Business Trip Scandal
These days, with Gu Shaoting not at home, Shu Pan also found herself in a relaxed state. She was busy taking care of her father and Auntie Lu, escorting them back to their hometown. Indeed, the scenery of their hometown was beautiful, with picturesque mountains and rivers. After returning, her father’s mood became much brighter. It was truly a good place for recuperation. Her father even jokingly suggested that she should come back and live there in the future, to which she just smiled in response.
Meanwhile, the River International Airport was bustling with activity. Reporters crowded the entrance, all seemingly waiting for someone’s arrival. In the midst of the bustling crowd, Tong Fei stood out in her white knitted dress. The form-fitting dress highlighted her figure, showcasing her envy-inducing long legs. She possessed a tall and beautiful stature, with flawless porcelain-like skin that radiated a charming and innocent aura. Behind her large sunglasses, her star-like aura was undeniable.
The reporters had their cameras and microphones ready, prepared to capture the latest gossip news. Many had received information that Tong Fei and her ex-fiancé, Gu Shaoting, were abroad together, supposedly for a work-related meetup. Today, upon their return, the news was perfectly timed. Additionally, Tong Fei was attending an anniversary event for an international brand she endorsed, which was also the reason for her appearance.
Sure enough, Tong Fei emerged from the airport. “Miss Tong, is this trip for endorsements? We heard that you and Mr. Gu came together.”
“No comment. Thank you, everyone.” Tong Fei’s assistant, Zhou, quickly stepped in to fend off the reporters’ questions.
Tong Fei smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern. Please give us some space. ”
With that, she hurriedly left.
“Mr. Gu, why did you choose this flight today?” Wearing black-framed glasses and a deep blue suit, Zhang, the fair-faced secretary, watched the approaching reporters with a headache.
Ever since encountering Tong Fei in the U.S., his temples had been throbbing. It was just such a coincidence that on the second day of Mr. Gu’s business trip, he bumped into Tong Fei, who was endorsing a brand in the U.S. Due to her longer time in the industry and her increasing international recognition, Tong Fei’s fame had grown significantly. Coupled with their past relationship, she was like an octopus, always finding opportunities to get close to Mr. Gu, dining together, having coffee together. Upon learning that they were on the same flight today, she had secured her own ticket without hesitation. Now, the two of them were leaving one after the other.
The man in front of him was none other than the boss, Gu Shaoting. Wearing a black suit, a hint of intriguing smile tugged at his lips as he remarked, “I’m evaluating your abilities.” After speaking, he strode towards the bustling crowd.
With drooping shoulders, Zhang looked helplessly at his boss. This assessment was truly a headache, especially with these entertainment reporters who were more persistent than flies. Businessmen usually didn’t attract the attention of entertainment reporters, but unfortunately, his boss was irresistibly charming. After a rumor with the self-proclaimed “number one beauty in the entertainment industry,” supermodel Tong Fei, he had been swept into the entertainment world.
Actually, his boss did indeed share a deep connection with Tong Fei.
Seeing Tong Fei getting into the car arranged by her agency and driving away, he noticed more and more reporters flocking around him. He quickly approached them and tried to shield them away, a miserable task indeed!
Finally making it outside the airport, a black luxury car was waiting by the entrance. The driver respectfully bowed to the incoming individual, opened the back door, and incidentally blocked the approaching reporters. Realizing that they wouldn’t get an interview, the reporters shifted their attention to Zhang, who was left behind. With a mournful expression, he watched himself being left behind and cornered by reporters, while his boss, expressionless, got into the car and provided the paparazzi with a perfect side profile shot. What an evil boss. The one who would suffer would always be his secretary..
