Chapter 31
"It's been a long time . " After recognizing the man inside, Qin Chu calmly waved .
"Oh shit, it's really you! You're back and you didn't even tell me?! Get in! We'll find a place to catch up . "
Unable to say no, Qin Chu got into the black Jaguar .
The owner of the Jaguar was none other than Qin Chu's childhood best friend, Gao Ran .
Just as Qin Chu stepped into the car, his phone began to ring . . .
"You don't need to pick me up, I have things to do . I'll return a little bit later . Put the documents in my office and cancel my appointments this afternoon . That's all . " Qin Chu hung up immediately .
"You went back to work at GK?" Gao Ran asked with a laugh .
"Yeah . "
"How long has it been?"
"More than a week . "
Gao Ran tapped himself on the head . "Sh*t, if it weren't for my stupid boss sending me away to study out of town, I would've heard the news of your return a long time ago . But what the hell man? You didn't even call me?"
"I tried to call, but it didn't go through . "
"Oh, right . We're not allowed to use cell phones during class," Gao Ran said, clearly happy to reunite with Qin Chu .
- Half an hour later -
The two men sat down in an elegant tea house . The room had a charming sense of antiquity .
Gao Ran asked sincerely, "How long has it been? Seven or eight years?"
"Seven years exactly . "
"Time sure flies . You were just a stupid kid when you left, and now you're the President of GK! Haha . "
"You're one to talk . You were a punk on the street seven years ago, and now you're the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau . What a huge change," Qin Chu said, picking up the teacup .
"Ugh! My dad said that my grandpa was a cop and he was a cop, so now it's my turn to be one too . He doesn't care whether I get married or have kids, but he would disown me if I didn't become a cop . "
"A family of policemen, not bad," Qin Chu said lightly .
"Bullsh*t! I never wanted to be a cop . It pays so little, and there's so much to handle . If you don't get it done, you'll get scolded . Do you think it was easy for me to get to this director position?! I got shot in the stomach in an anti-terrorist operation two years ago . I almost died!" Gao Ran lifted his shirt to show Qin Chu his scars .
"Great . What doesn't kill you makes you stronger . "
"Get out of here . Stop bullsh*tting me . I don't mind trading places with you . You can be a police director, and I'll be the president of a business empire!"
"Sure," Qin Chu replied in a serious tone .
"Yeah right, I don't have any talent in business . I'll just remain as a happy-go-lucky cop . " As he finished his sentence, Gao Ran picked up his teacup and took a small sip .
"Look at you, leaving without any notice, for seven years no less! What's wrong with you? Do you know how much I missed you? I called your dad to get your address, but he wasn't willing to give it to me," Gao Ran whined .
"Yeah, that was an agreement I had with my father . I told him I wouldn't return nor contact anyone back home before the seven-year period was up . "
"What kind of bullsh*t deal is that?! I really don't understand you . "
"No, I did it all for one person," Qin Chu said, enunciating each word .
Gao Ran suddenly remembered what happened seven years ago . He asked hesitantly, "Does this deal have anything to do with Huo Mian?"
Qin Chu remained silent . . . but his answer was obvious .
"I thought so . Qin Chu, why are you still hung up on a woman like her? Don't you remember how she treated you seven years ago? Forget her and find a Caucasian girlfriend . Do you know who you are? You are the heir to GK for god's sake! You can have anything and anyone you want, so why torture yourself over a woman?"
"Seven years ago . . . it wasn't her fault . I couldn't protect her . "
"So what are you doing now? Did you come back for her?" Gao Ran looked bewildered .
Qin Chu avoided the question and looked at his watch instead .
"I have somewhere to be, I'll catch up with you another day . "
"Yeah, alright . Remember to keep in touch . " Gao Ran got up to walk him out .
When he arrived at GK, Qin Chu went upstairs and headed directly to his office . He was surprised to see a woman sitting on the sofa .
At the sight of Qin Chu, she quickly got up, flashing him a beautiful smile .
"President Qin, you've returned . "
Qin Chu frowned . . .
