My Youth Began With Him-Webnovel

“For today’s meeting, I wish to clarify three points. First, the Chairman’s return to the company is only temporary. My wife and I had to deal with some tricky things over the past few days so we couldn’t make it to the office.”

“Second, rumors stop with intelligent people; employees of GK should not tarnish the company’s reputation with rumors. I will let the past rumors go, but any future rumors will not be tolerated.”

“Third, for those who wish to resign, you have one night to reconsider if you want to withdraw your resignation letter. If you wish to stay, I will be happy to keep you; if you wish to go, I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.”

“That’s everything, thank you all.”

Qin Chu’s meeting was short and succinct, unlike some company executives who talked on and on for four to five hours, causing everyone to fall asleep…

In the past, during the executive meetings, Qin Chu would briefly summarize and conclude the meeting after everyone expressed their perspectives and opinions.

It was in his personality to be decisive and efficient…

After Qin Chu finished speaking, everyone applauded loudly…

Then, Qin Chu held Huo Mian’s hand as they walked out of the auditorium and towards the president’s office.

The Finance Department immediately handed over numerous receipts, and the other departments sent over many proposals.

It seemed like there were a lot of matters that Qin Chu’s father did not get to deal with while he helped his son out at GK; after all, his father was an old man and had limited energy.

Qin Chu’s father did not dare approve some of the new proposals either, so he left a lot of work for Qin Chu to do.

“Sir, it’s impossible to finish all this in a short amount of time. Why don’t you take this home to finish or come back to finish it in a few days?” Assistant Yang suggested.

“It’s okay, I’ll leave after I finish.” Qin Chu had always kept his work and private life separate.

He was always serious when working, so he decided to deal with company affairs first.

“Honey…” Qin Chu originally wanted to tell her to go home first.

But Huo Mian immediately said, “I will help you organize all this, it’ll save you time.”

Then, Huo Mian sat down with all of the documents and started to sort them…

Qin Chu looked at her tenderly; he knew that she stayed to accompany him because she didn’t want him to overwork himself.

Assistant Yang looked enviously at the president and Young Madam, who were clearly very much in love.

Just like that, Qin Chu and Huo Mian worked late into the night that time.

When they walked out, the entire building was pitch black, and everyone had left.

“Do you want to have some late night snacks?” Qin Chu asked softly.

“Let’s eat at home, Uncle Li asked them to make papaya stew, I love it, it’s delicious.” Huo Mian held Qin Chu’s hand and smiled.

“Alright.”

Then, the two got onto the car and drove back to South Hill Manor.

When the maids saw that they were back, they immediately began to make them food and sweet soup.

Everything was ready when they came down after a shower.

The expensive red wine on the bottle was a rare sight.

“Hmm? Is this a mistake? We didn’t ask for wine,” Huo Mian said.

“Young Madam, this is the Young Master’s idea,” the maid said carefully.

“You can leave it here. Go and rest.” Qin Chu nodded, and Uncle Li and the others left the room.

Only the two of them were left in the brightly-lit dining room.

A clean white tablecloth covered the long dining table; the table was filled with desserts, late night snacks, and ginseng soup.

There was also a fruit salad and a bottle of red wine.

“Honey, you asked for the red wine, so… should we have some?” Huo Mian asked with uncertainty.

Qin Chu smiled but did not speak…

Then, he opened the bottle of wine and poured it into two wine glasses without even using a decanter…

He then handed a glass to Huo Mian.

“Honey… thank you for taking care of me over the past few weeks. You’re nearest and dearest to my heart and the most important person in my life, but I still have to thank you,” Qin Chu said as he lifted his glass.
