CHAPTER 84: SO BE IT!

Weng Lan drove to Yingcan Century, and the moment she entered the headquarters building, her emotions were indescribable.

As a manager from Juhua Media, she was well received upon arrival.

Since she didn’t have an appointment, the receptionist informed her, "President Gu is in a meeting right now, and the exact duration is currently uncertain. You can wait in the tea room or schedule a time to come back tomorrow."

Weng Lan was here today specifically to apologize.

Even if the meeting lasted until evening, she’d wait until evening.

She said, "I’m not in a hurry, I can wait until President Gu finishes the meeting."

The receptionist nodded and then went to pour some water.

A long wait of over three hours made Weng Lan restless and anxious. After three hours, she finally waited for Gu Yuan to finish the meeting and come out. Weng Lan breathed a sigh of relief and felt increasingly nervous.

The relief was because President Gu’s meeting didn’t last until evening.

The anxiety was because she didn’t know if Gu Yuan would accept her apology.

She immediately took out her phone and called Li Yan, telling her to come over right away.

After hanging up, Weng Lan looked out through the glass—

She clearly remembered when at Ancient Water Village, Gu Yuan was dressed plainly, but her face was so exceptionally beautiful, and Weng Lan suffered because of it, almost getting herself into big trouble.

Seeing President Gu today was entirely different from what she saw in the countryside.

It wasn’t the office lady attire Weng Lan had imagined. Gu Yuan wore a black mesh long dress, paired with a black blazer, and black high heels with red soles.

She wasn’t wearing any unnecessary accessories, not even earrings, just a simple ring on her left pinky finger.

She was truly beautiful, and her aura was undeniably strong.

Seeing Gu Yuan come in, Weng Lan, who had already stood up, stepped forward and called out, "President Gu."

Gu Yuan looked at Weng Lan, nodded slightly without revealing any emotions, "Sorry to keep you waiting, I was in a meeting."

"No, no, it wasn’t a long wait." Even if she had to wait until dark, Weng Lan would say it wasn’t long.

After sitting down, Gu Yuan got straight to the point and asked, "You’re here for the online incident?"

"Yes, President Gu."

Weng Lan initially wanted to ease into it before getting to the point, but since Gu Yuan laid it out directly, she had no choice but to proceed. Weng Lan respectfully bowed to Gu Yuan and said, "President Gu, it was due to my poor management that my artist made a big mistake. President Gu, you..."

"Have a seat."

Before Weng Lan could finish speaking, Gu Yuan gestured for her to sit.

Weng Lan hesitated a bit, guessing in her mind, could it be that President Gu didn’t accept the apology?

If she didn’t accept, would that mean her career was over?

The more she thought, the more anxious Weng Lan became, fearing that Gu Yuan’s next sentence would be: I don’t accept!

But, to Weng Lan’s surprise, Gu Yuan had no intention of pursuing the matter further, and even said to her, "There’s no need to take it so seriously. As long as the outside world doesn’t know it’s me, it doesn’t matter who takes the blame; it has no impact on me."

She clearly stated her attitude, providing reassurance to Weng Lan.

Upon hearing this, Weng Lan was so grateful she was nearly speechless, unable to believe the matter was simply resolved like this!

President Gu really wasn’t going to pursue it?

With what Li Yan did, anyone else might have exploded in anger, especially considering Gu Yuan’s status. On the way here, Weng Lan had prepared herself that if she couldn’t get through this with President Gu, she might as well give up.
