The three of them sat in silence, the presence of such a dominant superior sitting there made Gu Li feel restless, so he said to Gu Chen, "I'll go buy some fresh fruit for you; you'll be able to eat some fruit soon."
"Okay."
As soon as Gu Li left, Gu Chen spoke up, "President Lu, you seem preoccupied today."
Since Lu Jinyang rarely looked so dispirited, Gu Chen tentatively asked him.
To his surprise, Lu Jinyang actually responded, "Hmm."
After a moment of astonishment, Gu Chen spoke again, "Are you going to tell me about it?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Jinyang looked up, his gaze disapproving as it swept over Gu Chen's immobile body, "You should focus more on yourself."
Gu Chen: "..."
He seemed to have gotten used to Lu Jinyang's way of speaking, so he didn't ask further and simply closed his eyes to rest.
Some time had passed, and Gu Chen was almost asleep when suddenly he heard Lu Jinyang's voice jolting him awake from his drowsiness.
