Chapter 242 - 238: Having No Discernment
Chapter 238: Lack of Insight
Gao Chuan did not finish work until the evening. After concluding the business, he and the secretary returned to the hotel at nine o’clock at night. The two entered the elevator together, with Secretary Chen bending over to press the floor buttons for their respective rooms. Turning to look, he saw that Gao Chuan’s brows were still furrowed. Recalling the chance encounter with Jiang An that afternoon, Secretary Chen tried to offer some comfort: "President Gao, you see I was right, Ms. Jiang was really happy to see you."
Unfortunately, she left in a hurry after just a brief encounter.
Their reflections were cast on the elevator doors in front, the blurred image showing the man loosening his shirt cuffs. His eyes were fixed on the rising floor numbers, not responding to the secretary’s words.
Since Jiang An’s return to the country and arrival in Lin City, it had been over two months. Secretary Chen had witnessed his boss move in above the girl’s apartment and then pursue her to Lin City. Unfortunately, now even the slightest interaction with Jiang An had not been achieved, and he felt anxious on his behalf.
However, he had never seen such an approach to courting a girl. It was clear he had come to Lin City over hills and rivers for her, yet stubbornly proclaimed it was a business trip.
At this rate, who knows how many years and lifetimes it would take to win the girl’s heart.
Secretary Chen covertly glanced at the impassive Gao Chuan and silently criticized him.
As the elevator was about to reach their floor, the doors opened with a "ding," and Secretary Chen stepped forward to exit, only to find Gao Chuan still standing still as a statue.
He hesitantly looked back at Gao Chuan, only to see the man still in the elevator, reaching out his hand asking for the car keys.
With a slight sigh, Secretary Chen took out the car keys from his pocket and handed them to Gao Chuan.
