Chapter 59 A Strange Man Came Knocking on the Door
The secretary took out her phone and called her friend at Gu Corporation “Why didn’t Director Gu come to Feng Corporation for the meeting today?”
“She went to Lin Corporation for a meeting.”
Lin Corporation? She remembered that CEO Feng had asked her to pay attention to their project this morning.
At that time, she thought it was strange that she had to pay attention to this project.
Now, it seemed that she was not supposed to pay attention to the project, but to the people.
It was said that Director Gu and CEO Lin were childhood sweethearts.
The meeting for the Sky Garden Project was held until 12:30 pm. Lin Yu wanted to invite her to have lunch with him, but she rejected him.
She replied, “It will take me at least two hours to have lunch with you. I might as well eat in the cafeteria and read through the documents at the same time.”
In fact, she was pressed for time.
The Sky Garden Project was about to start soon. As the person in charge, she had yet to fully understand the project. She had never fought a battle that she had not prepared.
Generally speaking, such a large project would take at least a few months from the time it was planned to start. On average, it would take three to five years.
As for Yangchang Project, she had followed it for almost half a year and memorized every step of it.
Sky Garden Project was given to her by Lin Yu at the last minute. Although she had made ample preparations for today’s meeting, she almost couldn’t keep up with it.
Back at Gu Corporation, she didn’t go to the cafeteria. Instead, she asked her secretary to bring her a meal. She spent the whole afternoon studying the project, sorting out the meeting points.
It was not until 6:30 in the evening that she felt a little hungry. She asked her secretary to order takeout for her.
After the secretary had finished ordering, Gu Chu told her to go home.
It was almost time to get off work. Most of the people on this floor had left.
Not long after, she received a call from an unknown number. “Hello, is this Ms. Gu?”
“Yes.”
She had thought that it was the food delivery person, but she did not expect it to be a parcel delivery.
She had recently bought a bag. Usually, the delivery address she chose was her apartment or her family home. Did she accidentally set it to her office?
However, she had been busy the entire afternoon and could not be bothered to go down to get it. She also liked this bag very much. It was a limited edition bag, so she said, “Yes, I’ll ask the security to let you in. Take the elevator up to the 20th floor. Turn left and you’ll see my office.”
The person’s voice was low and hoarse. “Okay.”
Gu Chu made a call and asked the security to let him in.
As soon as she finished the call, she received another one, “Hello, is this Ms. Gu? Your parcel has arrived. Would you like it to be placed at the front desk on the first floor or sent up?”
Huh? Why were there two? She replied, “Just put it at the front desk.”
“Okay.”
She was puzzled. She had only bought a bag recently. Why were there two? She asked, “Didn’t you call me just now?”
“No.”
No? She blinked and suddenly felt a sense of unease.
The employees on this floor had all left by this time. She didn’t think much of it and quickly got up to run to the door.
The moment she grabbed the doorknob, the elevator made a “ding” sound. A man wearing a mask suddenly walked in and looked at her with a fierce look.
Her heart trembled and she quickly closed the door.
At this moment, the man also sensed that something was wrong. He took a few big steps forward and tried to stop her.
She quickly closed the door!
The door could not be opened without a key card. It was usually closed during work, and whoever leaves last would be responsible for closing it.
The man suddenly slammed the glass door fiercely.
Gu Chu hurriedly took two steps back and recorded the video of the man slamming the door.
The courier’s voice could still be heard. “Hello? Miss Gu, the front desk has already signed for it.”
She said hurriedly, “I have a criminal who is pretending to be you here. Help me inform the front desk and call security to come up to the 20th floor!”
The delivery man quickly told the front desk. The receptionist immediately called security.
After hanging up the phone, she was still recording the video. She waved her phone and said to the man outside the glass door, “I have already asked security to come up. Who are you?”
The man wore a mask and cursed. Then he continued to knock on the door.
Although the door was only made of glass, the quality was very good, so Gu Chu was not worried that he would break it open.
She looked at the man’s eyes and forehead that were exposed. It was very unfamiliar and she did not recognize him at all. So, who was he?
