Chapter 299: Chapter 300: Are You the One to Bully? Part 6

"Director Gu, I just have some suggestions for the advertisers, and now that you’re here, can I discuss them with you directly?" She believed that the bona fide company director must be a reasonable person.

When Gu Yixuan saw Mo Ran enter with a glass of water, he didn’t answer An Xi’s question. His gaze was faintly fixed on Mo Ran, and everyone noticed it.

An Xi secretly shot Mo Ran a glance and didn’t think too much about it.

"Your water." Mo Ran placed the glass in front of him, her gaze lowered without looking at him.

Just as she was about to leave, Gu Yixuan spoke up, "Stand here."

She didn’t want to stay, nor did she want to stand next to him. After an internal struggle, she still remained; she was an employee here, and she needed to do her job well, not letting personal feelings interfere.

After Gu Yixuan spoke to her, he didn’t say anything else. He turned his head, looking towards An Xi, as if he just remembered she had spoken to him.

"What did you just say? Say it again."

An Xi had mustered all her courage to speak earlier, and once she had spoken, her courage dissipated somewhat. Yet, for the sake of her career, she had to bite the bullet and repeat it.

"Director Gu, what I meant was, I have some reservations about the advertising plan, could you help me modify it?"

Gu Yixuan raised an eyebrow, "Is it the compensation that’s too low?"

"No." The compensation was already quite generous.

"Then do you think our product is not good enough?"

She didn’t have the audacity!

"That’s not it either!" An Xi quickly shook her head.

"You don’t like the shooting location?"

Provence, how could she not like it.

"It’s not that either, it’s..."

"Since it’s none of those, then what do you have to complain about?" Gu Yixuan’s expression darkened slightly at once.

Even when he didn’t speak, the hint of a smile he wore made people not dare to look at him directly, let alone approach him, especially when his expression turned stern.

In every board meeting, when the stubborn old-timers opposed him, all he needed to do was frown, say nothing, and they would get scared enough to immediately retract their words and agree with him.

When Mo Ran had just started working with him, she too was frightened of his displeasure. However, after being around him for a long time, she had grown immune to it.

Thus, in the current meeting room, everyone except for Mo Ran sensed the crisis at hand, all secretly fearful of what he might do.

Scared stiff, An Xi tightly shut her mouth, not daring to raise any more objections.
