Chapter 6: Attractive and Easily Deceived

After receiving morning intravenous therapy, Gu Shisheng returned to the gallery in the afternoon. The gallery was located in the best area of Jinjiang, occupying the entire floor of the 20th floor of the Jin Yu Building.

The room with the best lighting inside was Gu Shisheng’s studio. He moved the drawing board, secured the drawing paper, and, with his head lowered, suddenly didn’t know how to put the brush to paper, staring blankly out the window.

His assistant knocked on the door and brought him a cup of coffee, snapping Gu Shisheng out of his trance.

“Mr. Gu, the new interns we hired are all starting today. Would you like to meet them?”

Gu Shisheng put down his brush, his expression slightly cold. He turned around and replied, “Sure.”

The gallery’s work was not complicated, but due to Gu Shisheng’s reputation and the successful management over the years, there was no shortage of tasks. He had hired a few people recently, and Gu Shisheng hadn’t met them yet.

He had always been easygoing, not causing trouble for others, and getting along well with the employees.

Three interns, nervous before entering the meeting room, became much more relaxed after going in.

Really good-looking!

They looked up, staring in a daze at the man sitting at the other end of the table.

The light gray windbreaker accentuated his tall figure, and the exposed wrists were pale and slender. His features were gentle, and the misty blue eyes, when they glanced over, seemed to accelerate the heartbeat.

Wu Nian and Zheng Sui quickly introduced themselves. Both were still in school, majoring in painting. In the end, their goal in coming here was more for learning and gaining experience. If they could receive guidance from Gu Shisheng, that would be even better.

Gu Shisheng had an affable tone, making it hard not to like him. However, after he finished speaking, he realized that the young man standing behind hadn’t said a word.

“You are… Jiang Zhaoxi?”

Jiang Zhaoxi, who had started working the day before, cursed his father eight hundred times that morning, didn’t bother to comb his hair, stood in front of a row of paintings, cursed himself as an idiot, and was ready to resign this afternoon.

Mad at his father? Can’t get along with himself? Is the team game not fun, or is the night racing not exciting enough?

Is he actively seeking trouble here?

A monthly salary of eighteen hundred yuan, not enough for the repair fee for the car he accidentally bumped into this morning when rushing to work.

See the boss?

Does this broken gallery even have a boss?

Young Master Jiang was ready to slap his resignation letter in the boss’s face.

Before he could slap the boss’s face, he was stunned by the boss’s handsomeness.

This was no boss; this was the first time in eighteen years that he had been moved!

He hadn’t waited for a reply, and Gu Shisheng furrowed his brows. He only thought the other party was nervous. He lowered his head to check the information, then looked up, somewhat puzzled.

“You… study music?”

S.Ell International Music Academy.

Countless international trophies, just over eighteen years old, a genius in the music world.

But why come here as an intern?

Gu Shisheng had no idea that Jiang Xiaoshao had come out to find a job on a whim, coincidentally encountered this gallery’s recruitment, and, now regretfully, was ready to resign. Of course, this was a second ago.

Young Master Jiang was regretting bitterly. He blamed his father for making him study music. Why not learn painting?

“I believe art has no boundaries. I really like it here now, and I really need this job. Mr. Gu, you can’t reject me just because our majors are different.” In the end, he could change careers.

Gu Shisheng fell silent for a moment.

The youth’s eyes were too pitiful, coupled with his overly artistic short gray hair, resembling the little dog he and Lu Siyi had raised when they just got married.

“I didn’t intend to drive you away; I’m just afraid you won’t adapt.” Gu Shisheng sighed.

Jiang Xiaoshao’s eyes lit up, and he approached as if he wanted to squat in front of Gu Shisheng and wag his tail.

“Mr. Gu, you’re really kind. How can someone be so good-looking and so easily deceived?”
