Chapter 734: Chapter 734: I’m Not Like You

Assistant Gu had long noticed Wang Tianyu’s expression and now that he was approaching, he merely gave him a casual glance.

Wang Tianyu raised his eyebrows, his face carrying a gentle and harmless smile, “Assistant Gu, aren’t you hot wearing so much today? Why don’t you go rest in the back, I’ll take care of this here.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Peng turned his head to scrutinize Wang Tianyu, speaking indifferently, “You’re wearing quite a bit yourself. Instead of worrying about others, you should worry more about yourself.”

Having said this, he took another deep look at Wang Tianyu, “Assistant Wang, I’m not like you. Don’t use your petty thoughts on me. If you’ve got the ability, excel in your job, and put your mind to work.”

He finished speaking and refused to give Wang Tianyu another glance.

Wang Tianyu was stunned in place for quite a while before realizing he had been reprimanded.

Hey, he actually got lectured by a newcomer, and in such a contemptuous tone.

He had been working beside Mr. Lin for so long, and Lin had never scolded him before, so why did Gu Peng have the right to lecture him?

He even said he was different from him?

Different in what way? They were both assistants to Mr. Lin.

Speaking of which, he had entered the industry later than him, he should call him senior.

If it weren’t for today’s special occasion, Wang Tianyu would have rushed to confront him properly.

Just because he hasn’t been beside Mr. Lin for a while, does this kid think he’s more important to Mr. Lin than him?

Does he not know that the inauguration ceremony for Xiyang Building is the top priority?

Mr. Lin entrusting such an important matter to him indicates his higher status in Mr. Lin’s mind.

Wang Tianyu comforted himself with this thought and looked up, only to see Gu Peng speaking to Lin Chuxia.

Still with that stone-faced expression, no visible trace of a smile, yet Mr. Lin listened attentively, nodding occasionally.

Wang Tianyu suddenly felt a sense of urgency and quickly composed his emotions.

He glanced at the time, acknowledging the auspicious hour was soon upon them, and strode toward the temporary stage.

He needed to check the preparations one more time to ensure that the inauguration ceremony was flawless.

……

The ceremony formally commenced, and the invited guests entered orderly under the guidance of the ceremonial hostesses.

Lin Chuxia stood at the forefront.

At this moment, beneath the stage were not only the invited guests but also thousands of Xiyang employees, coming together to witness the group’s glorious moment.

Standing on the stage, Lin Chuxia gazed at numerous familiar old faces and many excited new ones, and slowly began to speak.

“Today, we stand at a new starting point. Xiyang Group is embarking on a new journey, thanks to the efforts and dedication of every single employee of Xiyang. Let’s join hands to create an even more brilliant tomorrow.”

Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.

Following this, several invited government leaders also delivered speeches.

Finally, Lin Chuxia and County Magistrate He unveiled the red silk covering the plaque together.

At that moment, the shining words ’Xiyang Group’ captivated everyone’s attention.

Xiyang Group was officially founded.

Standing on the stage, Lin Chuxia scanned each enthusiastic face in the audience, feeling overwhelmed with emotion.

Just then, she caught sight of a familiar yet somewhat unexpected figure in the crowd.

Qin Yang’s position wasn’t very forward, even rather offset.

Yet Lin Chuxia still spotted him immediately.

Obviously, the man had dressed up specially today, wearing a fitting suit, and holding a small bouquet of flowers in his hand.

Meeting her gaze, he gently waved his hand, giving her a tender smile.

“Mr. Lin, we should head over to the restaurant.”

Seeing Lin Chuxia unmoving for a while, Gu Peng approached and reminded her quietly.

After the inauguration ceremony, the group had prepared a sumptuous lunch at Xiyang Group’s own hotel.

“You all go ahead, I’ll join you shortly,” Lin Chuxia instructed Gu Peng and directly jumped off the stage.

Gu Peng followed Lin Chuxia’s sight and also spotted the man.

Qin Yang was startled by Lin Chuxia’s actions and quickly stepped forward to support her.

“Go slow, be careful not to twist your ankle.”

Lin Chuxia flashed a radiant smile, shedding her previous commanding demeanor on stage.

“Why did you come? Are these flowers for me?”

It’s not the weekend today, Qin Yang should be at work.

And she’s been busy in Ancheng County for the past few days with no time to even call him.

Qin Yang directly handed the flowers to her, “How could I not come at such a significant moment?”

“Are you coming with me to the restaurant or…”

“You go ahead. I’ll just roam around here.”

Qin Yang interrupted Lin Chuxia’s words, his urgency bringing a chuckle to her lips.

This man dislikes socializing the most.

Most attendees today were leadership from the government side, whom he detests interacting with.

“Alright, feel free to wander. Should I send someone to accompany you?”

“No need at all.”

Lin Chuxia offered a couple of instructions to him before heading to the restaurant.

As she approached the restaurant, she saw Gu Peng waiting at the exit.

“Why are you here? Who’s accompanying them inside?”

Having spent time with Gu Peng recently and helping him get on track quickly, Lin Chuxia completely trusted his current ability to manage things.

With him handling these matters, she felt assured.

Gu Peng noted the smile lingering on Lin Chuxia’s face, “Wang Tianyu and Factory Director Su are inside.”

Lin Chuxia nodded and walked past Gu Peng, stepping inside.

“Mr. Lin,” Gu Peng reminded her, “the flowers in your arms.”

“Oh,” Lin Chuxia just remembered that she was still holding a bouquet of flowers.

Bringing flowers into the restaurant indeed seemed inappropriate.

“Please find a suitable place for them first.”

She handed the flowers to Gu Peng. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on noⅴelfire.net

“Rest assured, I’ll take care of them.”

……

The inauguration ceremony concluded, the leaders left the stage, and the gawking crowd gradually dispersed.

They didn’t go far; today was not only Xiyang Group’s inauguration ceremony but also the first day of Xia Yang Mall’s opening.

For the first three days of the mall’s opening, there would be discounts and grand promotions.

Many people had heard long ago about the fashionable clothing styles at the city’s Xia Yang Mall, though visiting the city wasn’t easy; now that Xiyang Clothing Mall had opened right at their doorstep, even without buying anything, it was worth a good browse.

The crowd gradually scattered, yet one person still stood beneath the stage, gazing at the empty podium like a statue.

Only when all surrounding individuals had departed did Li Guangyuan withdraw his gaze and silently turn away.

“Hey, Guang Yuan, where have you been? I heard today the building built by Old Cai’s station is opening, and people from the city are flocking there. Folks are too busy to buy groceries; the market is quite deserted. Had I known people would be too caught up in the excitement to eat, I would’ve joined in the fun too; heard there’s even a TV crew. Maybe I’d end up on TV.”
