Chapter 733: Meeting an Old Friend
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The person Qin Zhen saw on the photo was Tong Fei. She had another name in France, Sophia.
Qin Zhen knew her. After all, she was in the entertainment industry well-known for high exposure. He recognized her the moment he saw the photo but was surprised that she was connected to Gu Shaoting in that way.
Qin Zhen knew Tong Fei’s story well. She was in a career slump in recent years and her reputation was not good.
She was quite a darling in the French fashion industry a few years ago. She later went back to China and came to France again last year. Her popularity had unfortunately declined significantly, and she had to accompany the rich as an escort to make a living.
Qin Zhen had a history with her too. What hadn’t he and his rich friends seen?
The timing couldn’t be better. Tong Fei probably wouldn’t refuse to see them when they had money.
Moreover, it was like her job now to hang out with the rich.
Qin Zhen thought for a moment before he picked up the phone and called his friend who had the means to find Tong Fei.
“Hey, bro. Can I trouble you to contact Sophia for me?” Qin Zhen went straight to the point and did not beat around the bush or waste time.
“Sophia? Brother Zhen, you can have any woman you want. Why her? Her reputation is not good now. Yours may get tarnished if you hang out with her.” His friend advised kindly.
“Don’t talk nonsense. Just do it. I have something to discuss with her. She’s not my type anyway, so don’t worry.” Qin Zhen replied unhappily. He didn’t need his friend to tell him what kind of person Sophia was.
“That’s good. You gave me a fright. I thought you’ve lost your mind.” His friend teased over the phone. At the risk of sounding vulgar, they were all second generation heirs who had hung out and played with countless models. They liked a good party.
“Get lost. Mind your own business. Help me contact her as soon as possible. It’s urgent.” Qin Zhen wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible. After all, once the financial problem Gu Shaoting’s company was facing was resolved, he would definitely go back to China. He wouldn’t be in the country for too long.
“Okay, I’ll never dilly dally on your requests. I’ll call her right away.” Qin Zhen’s friend was very loyal to him. He called Sophia immediately after they hung up.
Qin Zhen only needed to wait for an update. He felt that the matter would be a huge success and Charlene would be very happy. His mood could not help but improve.
…
Gu Shaoting finally got his company out of the crisis and was feeling more relaxed. The only thing on his mind now was to go home as soon as possible. He wished he could grow a pair of wings and fly home.
Although Shu Pan said that she was fine, he had read books about pregnancy and knew that it was hard being pregnant. He didn’t expect to be away for such a long time on a business trip.
Sometimes when the pregnancy popped up in his mind, he felt guilty towards Shu Pan. He must take good care of her in the coming days.
The next day, Gu Shaoting arrived very early at the office. He wanted to tie up any loose ends quickly so he could go home.
After a while, Mr. Zhang knocked and walked into his office. “CEO Gu, the contract with Tiansheng Corporation has been signed. It’s only execution now.”
“That’s great. Thanks for all the hard work.” Gu Shaoting walked up to Mr. Zhang and gave him a pat on the back.
Mr. Zhang was so touched that he was about to cry. He finally got a word of thanks from CEO Gu after working for him for so long.
Actually, he knew that CEO Gu had worked even harder. After all, he was the Group CEO and was responsible for the entire group. All the pressure was on him. He had seen CEO Gu chain-smoke during this period, even finishing two packs of cigarettes in one seating once. It was obvious how frustrated he had felt.
Fortunately, the matter had been resolved, and the company’s future was bright once again.
