Chapter 228 Gu Jingchen took the initiative to name Su An
Tang Ze was silent for a moment.
He quickly and carefully observed Gu Jingchen's mood before answering cautiously.
"Currently... there is still no progress. Apart from finding out that the murderer Lin Dong has a mother suffering from cancer who is receiving treatment from a public welfare fund... the rest is that the Su family is currently involved in the investment of this fund.
But there is indeed no intersection between the two, and no effective clues have been found..."
Gu Jingchen paused slightly with his hand on his eyebrows and said nothing.
After a while, he sighed softly.
He didn't ask any more questions, and just tapped the documents on the table lightly with his fingertips.
"Let's take care of this first. I'll contact Su An's boss soon. Tonight, I want to see that the letter of intent for cooperation has been signed."
"yes."
Tang Ze said nothing and immediately turned around and left.
In the evening, a large number of documents were handed over to Gu Jingchen's hands.
“Well done.”
Gu Jingchen complimented casually. Thinking that he would be able to see Su An tomorrow, his expression that had been tense all day relaxed for a moment, and his whole person also relaxed.
Then he waved his hand, indicating that Tang Ze could get off work.
The sky is getting dark.
It's quiet in the office.
Gu Jingchen was the only one sitting in his seat, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he suddenly opened the drawer at hand and took out something from it, staring at it in a daze.
It was the necklace that I had not given to Su An that day.
I wonder if her mood has gotten better during this period of time since he didn't stimulate her?
And this necklace, I don’t know when it will be returned to its original owner...
The next day.
Su An came to the company to work as usual.
As soon as he walked in, he bumped into his colleague Qin Rou, whom he got along well with recently.
"An'an, you're here."
Qin Rou said hello to her, and then pulled her in a mysterious way.
"I heard that the partner for the project that the boss has been working on has been decided. The partner will be here soon. I guess you will have to go to the meeting soon."
"So fast?"
Su An was a little surprised when he heard this.
She had heard about the recent projects the company was working on.
I heard the competition is also very fierce.
I thought I would have to wait for a while, but I didn't expect it to be decided like this.
Su An was thinking about it when she heard her colleague continue.
"Who says it's not true? I heard that the other party offered a huge price, and it tripled. They wanted to cooperate with us, but I don't know if the news is true... If there is such a good thing, our bonus for this quarter will be
It can be doubled..."
"double……"
Su An was stunned again, and couldn't help but become curious about the partner this time.
It sounds like the partner this time is quite wealthy?
While the two were talking, they saw a middle-aged man walking in from the outside.
"The boss is here!"
Qin Rou reminded her in a low voice and hurriedly separated from Su An.
Then I heard the boss order, "Su An, go clean up the conference room and prepare for the meeting in twenty minutes. Then ask the logistics department to take out the tea leaves I have collected and prepare them now."
"good."
Su An immediately nodded and turned around to do it.
Because the company was small and very short of people, the boss saw that she was very discerning and offered her a full-time position after only half a month as an intern.
It didn't take long for Su An to prepare everything. He was stuck in time and came to the conference room a few minutes early and sat in his usual seat.
Although secretarial work is simple, it is also very tedious.
Not only do you need to arrange everything, but you also need to keep detailed minutes of all meetings for easy reference.
Su An took out her notebook, put the pen away, and waited for the meeting to begin.
Then out of the corner of his eye, he saw Qin Rou sitting down next to her.
Then he whispered excitedly into her ear and said, "An'an! I seemed to have seen the partner of this cooperation just now! Although I couldn't see the face clearly, I knew just from the back that he must be a handsome guy!"
"Yeah?"
Su An wasn't interested in this kind of thing, but she still smiled cooperatively.
Then I heard footsteps coming from the door——
It seemed like a group of people were coming.
Everyone in the conference room immediately stood up and looked towards the door.
The next second——
The ajar door was pushed open from the outside.
The first person to walk in was Su An's immediate boss, the boss Chen Rui.
He bent slightly, as if there was some important person standing at the door, and said politely, "Mr. Gu, please come in..."
Hearing the word "Gu", Su An's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and the shadow of Gu Jingchen appeared in her mind.
But then it was immediately rejected.
It should just be the same last name.
The company she worked for was too small, with only about forty people in total, so it was impossible to cooperate with a large company like Gu's.
Su An was thinking, the next second——
Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a figure that was no longer familiar!
Her eyes widened suddenly, as if she was suddenly frozen in place.
How could it be...
It's really him!
How could Gu be able to cooperate with a company of this size?
How could Gu Jingchen come here in person!!!
Su An froze on the spot, barely able to take his eyes away from Gu Jingchen.
Until I saw him sitting down in the main seat.
Everyone also took their seats one after another.
Su An then returned to his original position, but his heart was in a mess, and he was in a state of confusion.
Why does Gu Jingchen appear here?
He has obviously not shown up for a month...
She thought that after the last time, they would never have any intersection again!
Was it because she was here that he came here?
Or is she being too sentimental?
Does Gu really want to cooperate with this company?
But no matter what happens, such a meeting should not require Gu Jingchen to come in person, right?
Su An unconsciously tightened the pen in her hand, and it was rare that she was in a trance before the meeting started.
I don’t know how long it took, but I suddenly heard again——
"This is Su An, a member of our secretarial team. Although he has just arrived, his work experience and manners are very reliable."
Su An came to her senses instantly and realized that Chen Rui was introducing his team to Gu Jingchen.
She didn't have time to think too much, so she could only force out a smile.
Then he felt Gu Jingchen's eyes looking straight over!
Eyes facing each other.
Su An almost stopped breathing.
There was almost only Gu Jingchen's slightly probing, yet profound eyes in front of him.
The next second——
"Hello, Miss Su."
Gu Jingchen actually said hello to her!
Su An was startled, and almost subconsciously replied, "Hello..."
Then something suddenly came to mind.
Gu Jingchen...
Are you pretending not to know her?
Su An didn't have time to think about it.
Chen Rui had already started to introduce other people.
Gu Jingchen seemed to listen very seriously, and looked away from Su An, saying hello to everyone.
Finally he introduced his identity.
Everyone couldn't help but look surprised when they heard that he was Gu Jingchen, the CEO of the Gu family.
How could a company of their size cooperate with Gu?
Everyone looks at me and I look at you, they all have expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Chen Rui looked happy and hurriedly comforted him.
"It's our honor that Mr. Gu has chosen our company this time, so everyone, cheer up, work hard these days, and be sure to work hard, you know!"
"yes."
Everyone spoke in agreement.
Only Su An remained silent, just staring down at his notebook, wondering what he was thinking.
Gu Jingchen...is he really here to cooperate?
If that's the case, that's great.
He just deliberately pretended not to recognize her, which was probably also showing his attitude.
There's nothing wrong with them just being strangers.
Su An thought and hurriedly cheered up as quickly as possible, not wanting to delay work due to personal problems.
Soon, the meeting officially began.
Almost everyone is at work.
Su An also carefully recorded the contents of the meeting.
It wasn't until an hour later that the cooperation plan took a basic shape.
Chen Ruineng and Gu Jingchen obviously got a big advantage by cooperating.
At the end of the conversation, he waved his hand and said.
"Since Mr. Gu has come with 10,000 sincerity, you can send the people on my side as you please. Just follow what we just said and form a working group with the highest efficiency as quickly as possible. As for the candidates, just
It’s up to you to decide…”
When everyone heard this, they immediately cheered up.
Gu Jingchen did not speak, but nodded, then took the list on the side and read it carefully.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Everyone is waiting for Gu Jingchen to make a decision.
Su An's heart also lifted little by little.
It's up to Gu Jingchen to decide...
For such an important cooperation, as a civilian, she shouldn't appear in the working group, right?
But……
What if Gu Jingchen really adds her into it?
Just as Su An was thinking, she heard Gu Jingchen suddenly say a name.
It belongs to a male colleague.
She breathed a sigh of relief and continued to wait for the next person to be named.
Then he heard that Gu Jingchen called three or four people in a row, but none of them called her.
Su An silently calculated in her heart.
A working group can have a maximum of ten people.
And at least half of them are from the Gu family.
So... it should be almost done.
Just as Su An was thinking, she heard Gu Jingchen continue, "Qin Rou."
"yes."
Qin Rou responded immediately, and then gave Su An a calm look, her face full of excitement about being able to work with her handsome partner.
Su An also breathed a sigh of relief.
There are five people, that’s about it.
Gu Jingchen probably wouldn't...
"Su'an."
Two familiar words rang in my ears.
Su An's expression stiffened for a moment before she could relax.
She couldn't control her emotions and subconsciously raised her eyes to look at Gu Jingchen, her eyes filled with questions.
Does she really exist?
Did Gu Jingchen do it on purpose?
Gu Jingchen looked back at Su An quietly, his deep eyes making it difficult to see what he was thinking.
Then he looked away and pushed the documents in his hands aside.
"These six people are enough, Mr. Chen. Happy cooperation."
“A pleasure to work with.”
Chen Rui and Gu Jingchen shook hands, and the meeting finally ended.
Everyone stood up and prepared to leave.
Su An's eyes stayed on Gu Jingchen, and her lips pursed tightly.
no.
She couldn't just work with Gu Jingchen like this in a daze!
We must ask why he came!
Why did she choose the company she works for!
Su An thought about it, and before Gu Jingchen had gone far, she hurriedly picked up her phone and quickly pressed a series of numbers that she knew well even though she had deleted them long ago.
【I want to talk to you.】
She typed five words and sent the message.
Within a minute, I received a reply from Gu Jingchen.
【Okay, I'll wait for you in the parking lot.】
Su An's eyes flickered for a moment, she quickly put away her phone, left the conference room without looking back, and ran straight to the elevator.
Then as soon as he opened the door, he saw Gu Jingchen waiting alone outside.
"An'an."
The moment he saw Su An, Gu Jingchen's expression softened instantly.
The tone was completely different from the one in the conference room just now.
Su An did not answer the call.
She frowned slightly and asked straight to the point, "Why are you here?"
The air suddenly became quiet for a moment.
Gu Jingchen looked at the person in front of him, questioning her with a distant look, his heart ached.
He would appear here, of course, for her.
But……
But can't say.
For a long time——
"Of course it's because of work. Weren't you also in the meeting just now?"
Gu Jingchen smiled and couldn't answer more naturally.
Su An pursed her lips and said nothing.
Is it really just for work?
But there are so many similar companies on the market, why did Gu Jingchen choose this one?
And let her join the working group?
"you……"
Su An opened her mouth slightly, wanting to ask him if he did this because of her, but she felt a little pretentious.
After a pause for a few seconds, she changed her words and said, "I just do secretarial work and have no experience in this project. Please replace me and replace me with someone more capable."
"An'an, you think I did it on purpose, don't you?"
Gu Jingchen asked suddenly, seeing through what she was thinking at a glance.
Su An's eyes flickered for a moment and looked away.
Although there was no answer, his expression said everything.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchen couldn't help but feel a little bitter in his heart.
yes.
He did it on purpose.
Because he missed her and went crazy!
Apart from this method, he didn't know how else to get close to her!
Silence fell between the two people again.
moment--
Gu Jingchen still suppressed his emotions, acted businesslike, and explained.
"The reason why I chose you is because Chen Rui praised your work ability. I also know that you did a similar job before we got married, so I trust you very much. After all, I don't know anyone else..."
"Feel sorry."
Su An didn't have the patience to listen to Gu Jingchen's words and interrupted directly.
No matter what the reason is.
She didn't want to have any close interaction with Gu Jingchen anymore.
Even if it's work.
And if she is really too busy, it will delay her from taking care of her brother.
Su An thought, adjusted her mood, and then continued.
"If you are really here because of work, then I am overthinking it. I apologize to you, but I really have no intention to participate in this working group, and I don't want to be too busy. Please, Mr. Gu, please remove me from the working group.
Get rid of it."
She finished speaking in one breath, without any hesitation in her tone.
Gu Jingchen's chest felt tight, but he couldn't say a word to refute.
An An...do you really want to draw a clear line with him?
If he continues to insist, will he make her angry again?
