Ding.
The elevator doors opened, revealing a bright corridor. Standing atop, Lin Zhiyi could look through the glass walls on either side, offering a high vantage view of the building’s interior.
At the end of the corridor was a double solid wood door, simple but imposing.
Assistant Chen carefully pushed open the door, revealing to Lin Zhiyi a two-story, 200-square-meter office.
A whole row of glass walls allowed an almost complete view of the surrounding buildings.
A spiraling staircase led up to what must be Gong Chen’s private area.
Lin Zhiyi looked at the tiles bathed in sunlight, still somewhat overwhelmed.
This was, in fact, her first encounter with Gong Chen’s work realm.
Beside her, Gong Shiyan, who was at a small conference table, immediately stood up upon hearing the noise.
“Zhiyi, you’re here.”
Lin Zhiyi snapped back to reality and handed over the insulated bag, “Uncle, I brought you some food.”
“Always the thoughtful daughter.”
Gong Shiyan’s face lit up with a smile as he took the insulated bag from her.
Just as he was about to sit down, he noticed Lin Zhiyi was still holding something else.
“What’s that?”
“These are clothes for Little Uncle. He thought I was dressed too lightly yesterday, so he lent me his to wear. Since I was coming to bring you food, I brought these along too,”
Lin Zhiyi said, looking around, but she did not see Gong Chen.
Gong Shiyan noticed her searching eyes and said, “Lao San is upstairs getting an IV.”
Here?
Working so hard?
Lin Zhiyi paused, feeling a mix of complex emotions.
But reason told her she mustn’t waver.
She placed the clothing bag on the sofa, casually walking over to Gong Chen’s desk as if admiring the view.
The desk was tidy, with neatly arranged files labeled on the side.
She searched twice, but couldn’t find the project President Yu had mentioned.
She even thoroughly searched the bookshelf.
It had to be here in Gong Chen’s possession.
Given the upcoming contract signing and his cautious character, he would definitely be keeping a close watch.
Could it be…
Lin Zhiyi looked upstairs.
By then, Gong Shiyan had finished his meal and was cleaning up. He saw something else in the insulated bag. “Zhiyi, did you come to see Lao San?”
Lin Zhiyi immediately retorted, “No!”
Gong Shiyan picked up the medicine bag. “Then what’s this?”
Silence, as Chen Jin entered carrying hot porridge and did a double-take upon seeing Lin Zhiyi.
Gong Shiyan put the medicine bag and the porridge in Lin Zhiyi’s hands, “Go ahead.”
Seeing the steaming porridge, Lin Zhiyi decided to bravely head upstairs to see if she could find the project contract.
“Alright.”
Upstairs, standing at the door of the room, Lin Zhiyi’s palms were sweaty.
As she hesitated, a hoarse voice came from inside.
“Come in… Lin Zhiyi.”
