As soon as I walked in, I saw many colleagues already busy with their heads down.
She was a little surprised, but then realized that it was probably because the company was cooperating with Gu Jingchen this time.
but……
This matter has nothing to do with her anymore.
Su An thought about it and was about to go to her seat.
Then he saw Chen Rui coming in from the outside. As soon as he saw her, he said directly, "Su An, Mr. Gu needs some detailed budget reports. You can prepare them in the next two days and send them directly to me."
I……"
Su An was startled when he heard this, and was a little unable to react.
Report?
Why should she do it?
Didn't Gu Jingchen tell her boss that she was quitting the project team?
Su An hesitated to speak and looked at Chen Rui, not understanding what was going on.
After a while, she could only say, "Boss, I have something to tell you..."
I don’t know why Gu Jingchen failed to implement this matter, so she plans to personally propose to withdraw from this project team.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Rui's expression suddenly became complicated.
Then he said in a deep voice, "Come to my office."
Su An nodded and hurriedly followed.
The two entered the room one after another.
As soon as the door closed, Chen Rui went straight to the point, "Su An, I heard from Mr. Gu that you want to withdraw from this project? Why?"
His tone was a little serious, and his expression was full of confusion.
Su An was a little surprised when he heard this.
Gu Jingchen has already said it?
Then why did the boss just...
She hurriedly explained, "That's it, boss, I have no experience in participating in this kind of project, so I think it's better to hand it over to a more capable colleague..."
"Why do you think I chose you?"
Chen Rui interrupted Su An directly, looking a little unhappy.
"It is precisely because I recognized your ability that I did not stop Mr. Gu from selecting you to join the project team. You have only been in the company for less than a month. Do you know how rare such an opportunity for training is?"
"Mr. Gu said yesterday that you took the initiative to quit. I still don't believe it. In short, I think your ability is absolutely fine, so you don't have to worry about this matter. You can continue to stay in the project team and do your job well.
That’s fine.”
Su Jing listened quietly, but she didn't expect that the boss didn't agree to her withdrawal. She hurriedly said, "But boss, I... I'm afraid that the project team will be too busy, and my brother..."
"I have heard a little bit about your brother."
Chen Rui interrupted Su An again, his expression even more serious than before.
Thinking of what Gu Jingchen solemnly told him yesterday, he hesitated for two seconds before continuing.
"Su An, it is precisely because of your brother's poor health that you should work harder to make money now and not miss this opportunity. Do you know how much bonus you can get after this project cooperation ends?"
"This can also add some savings to you, and have you ever thought about what Mr. Gu's people would think if you quit without any reason? You can't always consider yourself in everything, you must put the collective first. If you still insist on
If you want to quit, you can go back and write your resignation report now. I don’t need unmotivated employees here.”
Chen Rui said harsh words directly.
Su An didn't expect that he would say something so serious, and was immediately shocked.
Will you resign if you don't participate?
This is too...
Su An suddenly clenched her fists, and a strong hesitation flashed in her eyes.
She is really satisfied with her current job.
The salary and benefits are not bad, the distance from home is also very close, and the atmosphere with colleagues is also very good.
Wouldn't it be silly to resign rashly for this reason?
and……
What the boss said is correct.
Although she has some savings on hand now, the future is still long, so saving more money won't hurt.
While you can still work now, of course you have to work hard.
It's Gu Jingchen...
That familiar shadow flashed through his mind again. Su An was silent for a few seconds, and finally sighed helplessly in his heart.
never mind.
Since you can't hide, then face it.
Anyway, she can now face Gu Jingchen with a normal heart.
I just don’t want to create too many unnecessary interactions.
But now that the boss has said so, there is nothing we can do for the sake of work.
"Boss, I understand. I will complete my work seriously."
Su An didn't say anything more and finally agreed.
"Well, go and get busy. We have a meeting later. Mr. Gu should bring people here in person. He should also stay with us to work during this period of time."
Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this and waved his hand.
Su An's figure paused slightly.
Gu Jingchen comes here often, why should he stay in the office?
That's right...
This cooperation is about a new type of medical device.
The samples and test rooms are all here.
It is understandable that the partners come to work here.
Don't think about it so much anymore.
She just needs to work hard.
Su An thought, retracted all her thoughts, and returned to her seat.
Twenty minutes later——
The meeting started on time.
Su An was sitting at the end of the long table, and her eyes met Gu Jingchen's eyes almost as soon as he came in.
The four eyes meet.
She clearly saw a look of surprise in Gu Jingchen's eyes.
Then he looked away calmly, pretending not to notice, and lowered his eyes to the notebook at hand. He was either staring at the screen or writing with his head down.
until the end of the meeting.
Gu Jingchen stood up first, but did not leave. Instead, he looked in the direction of Su An and suddenly said, "Miss Su An, I want to see the minutes of the meeting you just made."
"good."
Su An was a little surprised, but still responded calmly.
Chen Rui also said from the side, "Su An stays, the others go back to work first."
The others then turned around and walked towards the door of the conference room.
Soon, Su An and Gu Jingchen were the only two people left in the huge space.
Su An organized his notes, walked to Gu Jingchen, and put them down.
Gu Jingchen said nothing, lowered his head and flipped through two pages, a hint of surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.
The fonts in front of you are neat and elegant, making people feel very comfortable when looking at them.
The records are also very concise and clear, allowing people to find the key points at a glance. They even include their own notes and suggestions. You can tell at a glance that it was written by an experienced person.
An An... is really outstanding.
It's just that he never noticed it before.
He really missed a lot.
For a long time——
"An'an, didn't you say you wanted to quit the project team?"
Gu Jingchen suddenly asked.
Su An had already guessed that he would mention this matter, and immediately explained succinctly, "Mr. Chen asked me to stay, saying that I shouldn't miss such an opportunity to exercise."
"I see."
Gu Jingchen nodded, with the right amount of understanding on his face.
But my heart suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
fine……
This Chen Rui is quite reliable in his work.
There are some things he can say, but if he says it, it will only be counterproductive.
He originally planned that since An An didn't want to participate, he wouldn't force it, as long as he could be in the same company as her.
But after meeting Lu Ziting yesterday, this idea was completely overturned.
He is afraid.
I'm afraid...she will really get further and further away from me.
So I can only use this method to appear in front of her a few more times.
Let her see his changes.
maybe……
There will be a slight turning point.
Even if An An is willing to give him a chance to compete fairly with Lu Ziting...
If he could start over with An An, he would definitely make her the happiest woman in the world!
Gu Jingchen thought, but did not dare to show too many emotions on his face.
After looking at Su An's records for a while, he returned the notebook.
Then he stretched out his hand towards her, with a smile on his lips.
"The record was very professional. Mr. Chen really got the right person. An'an, thank you for being willing to stay and work with me."
This is how the work was settled.
For two days in a row, Su An was busy almost from morning to night.
Either I'm working on documents at my desk, or I'm holding various large and small meetings with everyone.
Gu Jingchen spends almost half of his time every day coming from Gu's. He does almost everything by himself and has won unanimous praise from everyone in the project team.
Afternoon——
Another meeting ended and everyone stood up one after another.
Su An also packed her things and planned to leave.
Then I heard——
"Su An, please stay."
Gu Jingchen's voice suddenly stopped her.
Su An made a move and then walked over directly.
The rest of the people had already gotten used to it and left the meeting room one after another to go about their work.
In the past two days, Su An has been responsible for almost all document work.
After confirming these things, Gu Jingchen had to check them again personally.
Su An stood in front of the table and handed the document in his hand to Gu Jingchen with a serious expression.
Although I am very confident in my ability to work.
But……
After all, this is the first time that he and Gu Jingchen have any intersection at work.
As soon as he asked to see her work, she couldn't help but feel awkward as if her homework was being checked by the teacher, fearing that the other person would find something wrong at the next moment.
Maybe it's pride at work...
She didn't want Gu Jingchen to think that she was useless without him.
“Well done.”
He complimented as usual and didn't say much.
Su An immediately nodded as a response, then picked up the file and left.
The two of them have been like this for the past two days.
Apart from work, we don't have much interaction at all.
This is exactly what Su An hopes.
Everything is business-like, which is best.
The next second——
"An'an."
Gu Jingchen suddenly stopped him again.
Su An paused and looked back at him in confusion.
Gu Jingchen looked at the person in front of him and felt as if there was a ball of fiery emotions running rampant in his heart, clamoring for an exit.
But he can only be trapped in a cage, burning his emotions helplessly.
God knows how much he tried to endure in the past two days, so that he could not expose any of his emotions in front of her except for work.
But if you can...
He wanted to be the same as before.
She likes to work, so he lets her do what she likes.
He can even teach her patiently, and when she is tired, he can also give her the "privilege" openly and let her rest directly in his arms...
Thousands of words come to my lips.
After a long while, Gu Jingchen still restrained himself and said, "It's nothing, I just want to tell you that I may be a little busy at work recently. If you feel tired, you can ask me to take a break at any time and I can give you a day off."
He couldn't help but show concern in his eyes.
Su An was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then saw the emotion in his eyes and couldn't help but frown slightly.
Gu Jingchen... is he concerned about her?
But, she doesn't need it now.
I just want to finish this project as soon as possible.
The rest is unimportant.
Su An thought about it and said calmly, "Mr. Gu, work is my responsibility. You don't need to give me any special treatment. Just treat me the same as everyone else. Thank you."
After saying that, she turned around and left without hesitation.
Gu Jingchen sat where he was, listening to her distant address, his heart ached as if it was being twisted together.
He had heard the word "Mr. Gu" from Su An too many times in the past two days.
But every time I hear it, I feel the same sadness.
Thinking of the gentle "Jingchen" in the past, Gu Jingchen leaned back in silence in his chair, looking a little nostalgic.
Who can tell him what he should do?
If you show too much kindness, you are afraid of causing An An's resentment.
Keeping your distance will only make you farther and farther away from her...
What else could he do?
After sitting in the conference room for who knows how long, Gu Jingchen finally stood up.
As soon as I went out, I heard the sound of a phone call coming from the corner of the corridor not far away.
"Senior? Are you done with your work?"
Gu Jingchen paused in his steps and his eyes suddenly lit up.
It's Su An's voice!
Around the corner, Su An was listening to Lu Ziting speak with a smile on his face.
I heard him talk a few words about work, and then heard him ask.
"I finally have some free time today. How about...I'll pick you up to have dinner with you tonight? I heard that there is a new restaurant that is very delicious and should suit your taste..."
"Have a meal……"
Su An hesitated for two seconds, then thought that she could ask the aunt who took care of Su Xulin to wait until she got home before leaving, so she agreed, "Okay, then just wait until I get off work. It will be the same as before."
"Okay, it's settled."
When Lu Ziting heard her promise, his voice was obviously happy.
Then he coughed suddenly and whispered, "An'an, I haven't seen you for two days. I miss you very much."
Su An was startled when he heard this.
The base of my ears suddenly felt uncontrollably hot.
She was also a little afraid that Lu Ziting would continue to ask if she missed him.
Right now, she couldn't give an answer.
But Lu Ziting never puts Su An in trouble.
He himself seemed to feel a little embarrassed. As expected, he did not continue to ask, but made an excuse and said, "Then I'll see you tonight. My colleague is calling me, so I'll hang up now."
"good."
Su An hurriedly agreed and then put down the phone.
Thinking of Lu Ziting's tone when he said "I miss you" just now, the corners of his lips couldn't help but curve.
Until I walked out of the corner, there was still a smile on my face.
Even my steps became much more brisk.
Then he just turned the corner and saw Gu Jingchen who was still at the door of the conference room, and his steps suddenly stopped.
Gu Jingchen?
Why hasn't he left yet?
Then the sound she made on the phone with her senior just now...
Could it be that he heard everything?
But so what if I heard it?
It has nothing to do with him anyway...
Su An thought, nodded, said hello to him, and walked towards his office area.
Gu Jingchen's eyes suddenly dimmed. He didn't miss the smile on Su An's face just now, and a sea of jealousy instantly arose in his heart!
He heard it all...
An An, who did you invite to dinner tonight?
Lu Ziting?
Gu Jingchen's fingertips clenched tightly, and the emotions that could no longer be suppressed poured out from his eyes!
No……
He doesn't want An An to be with another man.
Giving him some time...
He will let her see his change!
Gu Jingchen thought, his eyes suddenly flashed with a stern look.
Then he took out his cell phone and quickly dialed a number.
evening--
Su An seized the time and finished the work at hand as quickly as possible.
Last time, Lu Ziting had to wait for her for more than ten minutes. This time, she didn't want to be late again.
Su An is busy, the next second——
A wailing sound suddenly sounded from behind!
"Help An An..."
Su An turned around quickly when he heard this.
Then he saw Qin Rou floating back to her seat like a wandering spirit, lying directly on the table, and said in despair, "A large batch of data suddenly came from the laboratory, we have to work overtime today...
…”
"work overtime?"
Su An was startled when he heard this.
Before he could digest the news, he saw his boss and Gu Jingchen walking in from outside.
