Chapter 15 - Boss Gu? Gu Shao? (2)

Upon hearing that, the receptionist’s eyes flickered a little and there was surprise in her look.

Lin Xi went on to say, “I came all the way from Zhang Village just to thank him in person.”

As she spoke, she pulled out her report card from this month’s monthly examinations and showed it to the receptionist.

The report card was very crumbled up and making Lin Xi looked as pitiful as it was.

Lin Xi didn’t make it that way on purpose. Her report card was inside her pocket when she jumped into the artificial lake to help Lin Anxin out. This was how it ended after it had gotten wet.

The school’s name was not listed on the report card. Just its emblem on the upper right-hand corner. Luckily, given her age, the little big sister receptionist would not have paid too much attention to any middle or grade schools and did not recognize the emblem of a noble school.

The receptionist looked at the report card – her #1 rank stood out quite a bit as was the individual grades for each subject.

“So, you wanted to show your report card to Boss Gu, is that it?” asked the receptionist.

Lin Xi nodded.

Lin Xi was dirty and her hair was messy right now. She looked a lot like a student living in poverty.

Looking again at the pitiful Lin Xi, her look was very sincere. The little big sister receptionist was a little moved.

-- She didn’t know for a fact whether Boss Gu had sponsored students in poverty before but Lin Xi definitely did not look like she was lying and what she had said was also quite convincing.

She was a very nice and grateful girl!

That was the receptionist opinion on her and she was touched by Lin Xi’s acts.

“Okay. Take a seat right here and I’ll schedule a time for you,” said the receptionist as she smiled at Lin Xi in a friendly manner. This was a much different smile than her professional one from a while ago.

The receptionist placed a call to the CEO’s office and briefly explained the situation, along with some personal comments.

The respond came back quickly.

The receptionist brought Lin Xi through the security check point and walked into the elevator lobby. “Okay. I’ve made you an appointment. Go up from here. The elevator will take you directly to 27th floor. Then someone else will meet you there.”

“Thank you, big sister.” Lin Xi gave the receptionist a sincere and grateful smile.

Hearing the “big sister” from Lin Xi made the receptionist very happy. She was only 26 years old and kids nowadays had already started referring to her as “aunty”! How awful was that!

Watching Lin Xi walked inside of the elevator, the receptionist contemplated notifying reporters. This was, after all, a touching moments and words of it should get out there.
