From abandoned baby to CEO

Seeing that Sun Xue didn't speak, he said indignantly:

"Professor Kramer is your guest. What's Professor Gu up to? Why did he get him drunk? He must have said something bad about you in front of Kramer!"

Wang Ke was very emotional. He felt that Professor Gu had gone a bit too far.

He cherished this hard-won opportunity very much. In the two previous projects they collaborated on, Wang Ke witnessed the outstanding talents of the designers from Kramer & Associates. He also wanted to take this opportunity to bring his abilities to a new level.

Sun Xue fought for the opportunity, and his ability was also recognized by Kramer. In the previous collaborative project, Professor Gu sent the two best designers from the design institute to assist him in his work.

But he was always on guard against these two people and never treated them well.

He understood Professor Gu's intention, and there was no way he would allow the designer he sent to exclude him.

He is very confident in his abilities, and with the company team he has built now, he is fully capable of cooperating with Kramer's team.

But Professor Gu gave him a headache.

He immediately gave Sun Xue some advice:

"We have to take action now. So, when you see Kramer tomorrow, tell him the truth. Tell him that Professor Gu's design institute and we are just partners. Otherwise, Kramer will be poached sooner or later. He's such a cunning man, so good at playing tricks. How can we be his opponent?"

Sun Xue felt that what Wang Ke said made sense, and clarified the matter to Kramer. She was really no match for Professor Gu in terms of scheming.

"Okay, I'll explain this to Kramer tomorrow when I see him."

The next day.

Until ten o'clock in the morning, Sun Xue still hadn't seen Kramer and Professor Gu.

She was really anxious now.

I called Kramer immediately, but no one answered the phone.

So he called Professor Gu and asked in a cold tone:

"Professor Gu, is Professor Kramer still awake?"

Professor Gu did not answer her question directly. Instead, he lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Sun, I'm in the hospital right now. I'll call you later..."

She became nervous when she heard that, "Hospital? Did something happen to Kramer?"

"Let's not talk about it now. I'm hanging up. I'll call you when I'm done..."

Before she could say anything, Professor Gu hung up the phone without her permission.

After hanging up the phone, Sun Xue's heart was in suspense.

Why is he in the hospital? Judging from the tone of Professor Gu's voice, could it be that Kramer has had some alcohol problems?

She thought Professor Gu would call her in half an hour at most, but she waited for an hour and there was no response from Professor Gu.

She couldn't sit still any longer and immediately made a phone call.

As a result, the other party also turned off the phone.

She had a bad feeling. Why hadn't Professor Gu called her back? And why had he suddenly turned off his phone?

She vaguely felt that things were getting weirder and weirder...

So she called Kramer again, but his phone was also turned off!

She was completely panicked now.

Kramer was a guest she invited, and she couldn't afford the consequences if something unexpected happened here.

Sun Xue felt that she couldn't wait any longer, she had to go to Professor Gu's house.

She immediately called Wang Ke and said, "Mr. Wang, please accompany me to Professor Gu's house right now."

Sun Xue's nervous tone actually scared Wang Ke:

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"It's hard to explain in one sentence. Let's talk about it when we meet."

Soon Zhu Biao drove up with Wang Ke. As soon as Sun Xue got in the car, Wang Ke asked anxiously:

"What's wrong? Mr. Sun, why are you in such a hurry to go to Professor Gu's house?"

Sun Xue told Wang Ke what had happened.

"Both of their phones are turned off? What's Professor Gu up to next?"

"Xiao Sun, could it be that Professor Gu put poison in Lao Ke's wine?" Zhu Biao said angrily.

"That's impossible! Poisoning is illegal. Professor Gu is such a smart man, how could he do such a childish thing?" Sun Xue immediately denied it.

Zhu Biao curled his lips and said, "That's hard to say. Don't think people are that simple. Some people will do anything for their own benefit. Even if they didn't poison me, I guess they must have tampered with the wine..."

"I think Brother Zhu's analysis makes sense. Professor Gu is quite cunning. He wants to play tricks on us. Isn't it just like playing house?"

Zhu Biao and Wang Ke's words only exacerbated Sun Xue's doubts...

She could only comfort herself, "We might be overthinking it. Maybe Kramer just drank too much. Nothing will happen. We'll know when we get there..."

When the car was halfway through the journey, it suddenly discovered that the road ahead was jammed with traffic.

"Oh my god! Was there a traffic accident? Why is the traffic jam so bad?"

Looking at the dark sea of ​​cars ahead, Zhu Biao complained.

"You guys stay in the car first, I'll go down and find out what's going on."

Zhu Biao got off the car, and about ten minutes later, he brought the latest news:

"This is troublesome. They say there's a multi-vehicle rear-end collision on the road ahead. They're dealing with it urgently. It's been blocked for an hour."

Sun Xue asked nervously, "When will it be open?"

Zhu Biao shook his head. "I heard from drivers who knew about the accident that it's a serious one. More than a dozen cars collided. It will take at least five or six hours for the road to be passable. There's nothing we can do about it. When something like this happens, we can only wait."

When Sun Xue heard this, she became even more anxious. She rolled down the car window and stuck her head out.

The traffic on the road was jammed, many people had gotten out of their cars, and some were even playing poker leisurely on the side of the road.

Judging from the posture, it seems that they are prepared to wait for a long time...

Sun Xue tried to call Dean Gu and Kramer again, but found that their phones were still turned off.

"Why is it still turned off..." She sighed and muttered to herself.

"Xiao Sun, why are their phones turned off? Could it be that... Dean Gu and Kramer had a car accident on the way to Quancheng City?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Biao blamed himself, "Ah, bah, bah, my crow mouth!"

Zhu Biao's words made Sun Xue and Wang Ke nervous at the same time.

"Mr. Sun, are you sure that Dean Gu said he is in the hospital?"

Sun Xue nodded.

"By the way, I have the phone number of their company's designer. I'll call and ask right away."

Wang Ke said this and immediately took out his cell phone and dialed the number.

When Wang Ke asked about Dean Gu and Kramer's situation, he was disappointed by their answers:

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Wang. I'm in my hometown, and I'm not very clear about this."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ke called another designer, but the other party replied, "Mr. Wang, I'm not feeling well and am in the hospital. Sorry, please ask someone else..."

Wang Ke said politely, "Why don't you ask your colleague to help me ask."

The other party said reluctantly, "Okay."
