The a.s.sistant’s ear was to the door, and when he heard the commotion on the other side, his heart almost stopped!

He had thought that Young Master Xu would really be able to cheer his boss up. From the looks of it now, not only had he been unable to clear the storm, he had brought a hurricane upon himself!

Was this the grand plan Young Master Xu had said he had?

As expected, 30 seconds later, the door to the office opened, and Young Master Xu cupped the broken pieces of his phone in his hands. As he walked out, he blubbered as he said, “This was a limited edition phone that I just bought! I had only used it for a day!”

The a.s.sistant looked at him sympathetically. He had already warned him that the boss was in a horrible mood and had told him to look out, but he had insisted on riding right into the eye of the storm. He was lucky that the only thing broken was the cell phone!

However, he simply patted Xu Shuai on his shoulder and consoled him. “My sympathies, Young Master Xu.”

After Xu Shuai left, the a.s.sistant went over to close the office door. Through the crack, he saw Mr. Gu seated behind the gigantic work desk in a daze. His eyes were focused in the distance, looking at nothing in particular. It was obvious that he was lost in his own thoughts.

The a.s.sistant was stunned.

He had never seen the boss behave so frighteningly before, and he had never seen the boss look as perplexed as he did now. In fact, his boss almost looked helpless!

At that thought, the a.s.sistant jerked back abruptly.

To him, Mr. Gu was a character larger than life that n.o.body and nothing could sway. How was it even possible that he’d be perplexed and helpless over something?

Xu Weilai slept through the whole day and the whole night. When she awoke, it was already morning the next day.

After she showered, she went downstairs for breakfast, and the secretary brought her bag and coat over. She had left her belongings in the private room the other day after getting drunk and being brought back by Grandpa Gu.

However, she couldn’t find the contract inside.
