Chapter 1288: Chapter 1287: Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
Let’s not discuss whether this thing is real or fake for now.
Just the decryption of the Death Tombstone has already consumed a lot of manpower and resources, yet not a single bit has been deciphered.
A certain deputy has to admire Gu Tong’s wisdom. In a sense, Gu Tong is indeed a candidate with special talents.
Gu Tong sat on the long sofa, quietly said: "I was just lucky, and also, I don’t know the authenticity of this Buddha statue. Perhaps it’s just the old man’s trickery, also possible."
The deputy’s eyes were fixed on the backpack at all times, worried that there might be any mishaps, and said: "The things left by the old man are always so hard to decipher. The special team from the military has been researching the old man to the point of exhaustion, yet still hasn’t drawn any conclusions."
The old man’s knack for hiding things is widely known. Anyone who takes over matters related to him always finds them extremely troublesome.
Gu Tong agreed with this statement and also felt that the old man’s trickery skills were extraordinary, saying: "The rest is up to the appraisal team, I am also relieved of any debt."
The deputy: "..." Obviously it’s left to me... where does the appraisal team come in...
If you want me to pass it on, just say it directly, why beat around the bush...
It’s tough being a deputy these days...
"Let’s not talk about this anymore." Gu Tong wasn’t prepared to continue this topic. She diverted, saying: "How has the company been doing lately?"
"..." This topic is even less appealing than the previous one...
Regarding the young lady who didn’t react after listening to female staff discuss Devil King, the deputy was especially cautious.
"It’s going okay, when we first joined the company, a lot of things weren’t going too smoothly. Devil King is essentially the focus of the Prince Zone’s work, which has shifted to the company. Although managing things isn’t a big issue, they are just too trivial. Everything needs to be handled personally, and it’s quite troublesome."
The senior management configuration of the branch company consists of people left by Gong Qingwan, all belonging to a kind of trusted group.
When Li Yan first joined the company, it was somewhat expected that these people would cause hindrances.
Moreover, there are many work exchanges and handovers which Li Yan, as the general manager, needs to handle personally. It surely makes him more busy than usual.
The deputy continued: "However, the power of our Devil King speaks for itself, such small matters are not a trouble for him, he can still manage everything fully, just more tiring."
Gu Tong raised her hand to pick up the cold coffee on the desk and said: "Did Gong Qingwan not make a move?"
A move...
The deputy shook his head, saying: "Theoretically, she hasn’t. After all, we are strictly guarded and won’t give them any chances to exploit."
Gu Tong took a sip of coffee and said: "Considering her temperament, it should be a matter where the real intention is not very obvious, arranging trainees unexpectedly."
The deputy agreed with this statement, and he had heard Devil King say the same thing.
Indeed they are husband and wife, thinking about similar matters alike.
The deputy thought about this and cautiously said: "Young lady, the rumors in the company cannot be true...Every day, I follow Devil King and there definitely won’t be other issues..."
The deputy finally couldn’t hold back and spoke these words first.
After all, he also didn’t want the couple to argue because of these unfounded rumors.
The young lady has just returned, so the small reunion should be akin to newlyweds coming together.
