Chapter 306 The chance to get along with Gu Jingchen alone
This time the silent person became Su An.
She didn't expect that Gu Jingchen would remember this.
If you were a person with a temper, you could have replied, "It's off work time now, this is my private matter."
But Su An didn't dare.
She was afraid that this would anger Gu Jingchen.
I lost the hard-won opportunity to become a regular employee.
Right now, I can only find an excuse that doesn't sound any more reasonable.
Su An suddenly thought of what she was here for, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Gu, I'm here to buy a cake."
“You come here specifically to buy cakes?”
Gu Jingchen's tone was still full of disbelief.
After hearing this, Su An took a deep breath and finally dared to raise her head and look directly at him. She said in a positive tone, "Yes, I read on the Internet that there is a famous cake shop here, just around the corner. If Mr. Gu is interested, you can also
Have a taste."
Gu Jingchen said nothing.
He often walks here, so he naturally knows which store Xia Xiaomo is talking about.
When I passed by just now, I saw how many people were in the store.
But...is she really just here to buy cakes?
If not...
Gu Jingchen's eyes darkened, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what else the other party could be here for.
Really... is he too worried?
Regardless of whether she really came to buy a cake, he couldn't block her here and prevent her from leaving.
"Mr. Gu?"
Su An called Gu Jingchen again.
Gu Jingchen came back to his senses in an instant, then took a step away slightly and said in a deep voice, "It's okay, you can go."
"Thank you, Mr. Gu."
When Su An heard that he was finally willing to let her go, she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked towards the cake shop without looking back.
As expected, there were a lot of customers in the store, and just by queuing up, they were already almost at the door.
Su An stood at the end of the line, but she couldn't help but scan the corner of the street with the corner of her eye, fearing that Gu Jingchen would suddenly appear in front of her again.
After waiting in line for ten minutes, Su An finally bought the cake she wanted.
She carried the box and went out. Even though she knew that Gu Jingchen might have left, she didn't dare to relax at all. She went directly back to where she parked her car and left quickly.
Not far away, inside a car——
Gu Jingchen looked at the direction Su An left with a stern face, his eyes deep and unpredictable.
She really... just bought the cake and left.
But even if Xia Xiaomo really had something to do with An An and came here for an ulterior purpose, she would probably not dare to do anything if she met him here.
Gu Jingchen closed his eyes and gently rubbed his eyebrows.
For a long time——
He suddenly thought of something, opened his eyes suddenly, took out his mobile phone, and quickly dialed a number.
Within a few seconds, someone picked up the phone and said respectfully, "Mr. Gu."
"How is the investigation of the person I asked you to check before?"
Gu Jingchen asked straight to the point.
Hearing this, the person on the other end of the phone hurriedly replied, "We are just about to report this matter to you. Regarding the woman named Xia Xiaomo, we have checked her resume and all surrounding interpersonal relationships, and
I didn’t find any interaction between her and your wife.”
"Not at all?"
Gu Jingchen continued to ask.
"Yes, not at all."
The other party answered very affirmatively, and then added, "There is not even a marginal intersection such as maybe having attended the same school. It can be said... that they are two parallel lines without any overlapping points."
Gu Jingchen took a deep breath and said nothing.
The person on the other end of the phone also fell silent.
A few more seconds passed——
"I see."
Gu Jingchen dropped the last four words, hung up the phone directly, then threw the phone aside, staring blankly at the familiar neighborhood not far away, falling into silence.
Maybe……
Maybe he really misses An An too much.
Xia Xiaomo can come here to buy cakes at will.
You can also laugh whenever you want.
It was because he could hardly suppress his eagerness to see her.
That's why she is wary of anyone who is somewhat similar to her or anything related to her.
This is probably God's punishment for how he treated An An...
…
On the other side——
Su An returned home in a hurry.
It wasn't until she locked the door that she finally gave up all her strength, casually kicked off her high heels, and fell down on the sofa without even bothering to take off her makeup.
The palpitations I felt the moment I bumped into Gu Jingchen seemed to be imprinted in my mind.
Just thinking about it made her fingertips tremble.
"call……"
Su An exhaled gently, trying to calm herself down.
He also looked at the chocolate cake that was thrown carelessly on the coffee table, with some nostalgia in his eyes.
The cake is bought.
On Gu Jingchen's side, he should have managed to cover it up, right?
After she left, did he... go there often?
Su An asked herself softly in her heart, she didn't need anyone to answer, she already had the answer.
I don't know how long it took, but she finally turned over and sat up from the sofa.
Then he unwrapped the cake, cut off a small piece, and put it in his mouth.
The soft and sweet taste with a hint of bitterness brought back many memories for her.
only……
From now on, she can no longer go there in person.
You must never be seen twice by Gu Jingchen in the same place.
A few more days passed——
Su An went to get off work and off work on time every day as usual, and her life was uneventful.
Gu Jingchen also asked Tang Ze to assign various tasks to her as usual, and did not mention anything about that day again.
Su An also completely stopped worrying.
Afternoon——
As soon as she finished working on a report, there was a knock on the office door.
Su An looked up and saw Tang Ze walking in, and stood up hurriedly.
Tang Ze smiled very friendly.
"Assistant Xia, you don't have to be so polite. We are already formal colleagues."
"Um……"
Su An responded softly, and looking at the smile on Tang Ze's face, she suddenly felt like things were different.
In the past, Tang Ze always had a straight face, making him seem unapproachable.
Now……
Is it because he is about to be a father?
He no longer seemed to have such a fierce temperament, but instead had a bit of gentleness.
Because love can change a person.
It can also make people irrecoverable.
Just like her and Gu Jingchen...
Everything between the two of them flashed through his mind. Su An instantly came back to his senses and asked hurriedly, "Does Assistant Tang have any new work for me?"
"yes."
Tang Ze nodded simply, and then a slightly embarrassed look appeared on his face.
After a two-second pause, he continued, "Mr. Gu is going on a business trip to city B next door tomorrow, which will take about three days. There is also an important banquet. I was supposed to accompany Mr. Gu, but my wife recently
She feels a little uncomfortable, I want to spend more time with her..."
"Then I'll just go with Mr. Gu."
Su An didn't wait for Tang Ze to finish, she already understood his purpose and agreed without thinking.
"Actually, you just came here not long ago, and a job like this..."
Tang Ze still looked a little bit regretful.
Su An waved her hand hurriedly, "It's okay, I can also exercise a bit. This opportunity is rare. If I don't understand something then, I might have to call you to trouble you..."
"It won't be a bother, just contact me."
Seeing that she didn't show any unwillingness, Tang Ze relaxed.
Then he explained a few more words and then left.
Su An listened to him walking away and hurriedly turned around and returned to her seat. She pursed her lips slightly and her thoughts suddenly became more active.
I didn't expect to have the opportunity to be alone with Gu Jingchen so soon!
She must grasp it well!
But……
What to do?
Gu Jingchen's attitude towards her can be said to be perfectly normal.
It is absolutely impossible for him to fall in love with her under such circumstances and then have a relationship naturally!
She doesn't have time for a long relationship.
So... we can only use extraordinary measures!
Tang Ze just said that Gu Jingchen was going to attend a banquet...
If he accidentally drank too much, or... someone was in his drink...
Su An gradually had a bold idea in his mind.
The next day.
Su An got up early and packed up as usual, took the box she had packed last night, and went out.
It was only half past six in the morning.
Gu Jingchen's driver was already waiting downstairs early.
According to the agreement between the two of them, he would first pick up Su An, then go to the Gu family villa to pick up Gu Jingchen, and finally drive to city b.
"Brother Li, good morning."
As soon as Su An got in the car, she greeted the driver very friendly.
Then I heard the other party say politely, "Hello, you are Assistant Xia. I always hear Assistant Tang mention you to me and praise your excellent work ability..."
"It's Assistant Tang who deserves the award. I still have a lot to learn."
Su An behaved very modestly.
After chatting for a few words, Su An quickly gained the other person's favor.
Half an hour later——
The car slowly drove into the villa area and stopped in front of a villa.
The driver called Gu Jingchen and said that he and Su An were waiting outside the door.
Su An looked at everything in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little lost.
The familiar environment around her made her unable to help but fall into memories again.
The mood I felt when I left here is still fresh in my memory.
Unexpectedly, she would come back here one day.
Su An thought, her eyes couldn't help but look around outside the villa.
Then I saw on the left side of the yard, a piece of vegetation with empty branches but no flowers.
Su An was stunned for a moment, then recognized what it was.
It was her favorite plant with pale yellow flowers.
The name is Yuexiang.
However, this kind of tree only blooms in winter, and now that it is hot summer, it is naturally bare, and those lovely flowers cannot be seen.
It's not like she never thought about planting it at home before.
But at that time, Qiu Shuya had her own plan for the garden at home. She mentioned it once, but after being rejected by Gu Jingchen, she never mentioned it again.
So these…
Was it planted after she left?
Su An's tip trembled, and a sudden sadness arose in her heart.
Gu Jingchen placed her things in the office.
Gu Jingchen planted her favorite flower in the most conspicuous place in the yard.
But...what's the use?
Regardless of whether he did it out of compensation or nostalgia, it was already too late.
Why doesn't he understand...
"Assistant Xia?"
The driver's voice suddenly sounded, suddenly pulling Su An back from his thoughts.
"Huh? Brother Li, you call me."
Su An came to his senses instantly and smiled at him hastily and apologetically.
Then I saw the driver waving his hand.
"It's nothing. I just saw that you seemed to be in a daze. Did you get up too early in the morning? But I can't help it. It's just like this when you are with Mr. Gu. You have to cheer up after a while. If Mr. Gu talks to you, you will also
If you get distracted, that's not good."
Brother Li's tone was slow, but he cared about Su An between the lines.
"I understand, thank you, Brother Li."
Su An hurriedly thanked her. As she spoke, she couldn't help but look at the flowers again and said softly, "I was just looking at those flowers..."
"flower?"
Brother Li was startled when he heard this, then glanced in the direction Su An was looking at, and suddenly laughed.
"What do you know those branches are? It turns out they can bloom..."
He muttered, then suddenly thought of something, his expression became more serious, and he warned Su An.
"Assistant Xia, there are some things. I don't know if Assistant Tang has mentioned it to you. Mr. Gu was married before, but something happened with his wife later. Although I don't know what these flowers are, but
You also know that this is planted by Mr. Gu specifically for his wife. When you work beside him, remember not to mention anything about your wife. Unless Mr. Gu has something to do with you, otherwise if you accidentally say the wrong thing, you may
I immediately lost my job..."
Su An was stunned after hearing this.
When I heard the words "Mr. Gu planted this specially for his wife", I couldn't help but be distracted for a moment.
After reacting, he hurriedly agreed, "Don't worry, I won't talk too much."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a neatly dressed Gu Jingchen walking out of the villa. She hurriedly stopped talking, opened the door and got out of the car.
Lao Li also closed his mouth.
"Mr. Gu."
Su An said hello to Gu Jingchen and thoughtfully opened the back seat door.
Gu Jingchen said nothing, nodded casually, and sat in.
Su An also turned around and went to the back seat.
Logically speaking, she should be sitting in the front.
But last night, Gu Jingchen temporarily handed her a document and asked her to check it. He happened to report to her on the road today, so the two of them sat together.
The car started slowly.
Su An casually opened the small table in the car, put her laptop on it, and opened it. Then she suddenly felt a little tired and sighed helplessly in her heart.
Although she had an ulterior motive for approaching Gu Jingchen.
But the job of an assistant is indeed not easy.
Especially after she became a regular employee.
She was already used to it when she suddenly came to work like last night.
But today I got up early and had to spend four hours in the car.
Not only can she not relax at work for a second, but she also has to be wary of her identity being discovered.
Mentally I really feel a little...tired.
Su An was thinking in her mind, but she still quickly opened the work software and reported the report, "Mr. Gu, the document you sent me yesterday..."
Twenty minutes later——
The car slowly drove onto the highway.
Su An's report is finally coming to an end.
She pulled the ppt on the screen to the last page, and she slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She was about to continue talking.
