But when the question came from Gu Jingchen's mouth, Su An was frightened for a moment.
Why on earth did he notice so many details about her?
Have you already begun to doubt her?
Su An didn't dare to think about it carefully, and she didn't dare to delay talking for too long. Her mind was spinning rapidly.
Soon, she found a suitable reason.
"Mr. Gu, I am indeed not short-sighted. I wear glasses because..."
Su An said, paused for two seconds, then pretended to be a little embarrassed and continued, "It's because during the interview, I felt that wearing glasses looked more mature, so I kept wearing them... Tang
Doesn’t the assistant occasionally wear glasses..."
Gu Jingchen, "..."
The reasons given by Su An were flawless.
Moreover, the assistant is only responsible for assisting him in his work. As long as he is well dressed and has a pair of glasses, there is really no need for Gu Jingchen to interfere.
For a long time——
"Don't wear it for now, put it away."
As expected, Gu Jingchen didn't say anything more and returned his eyes to Su An.
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
Su An hurriedly took it, but she didn't feel relaxed at all.
She had already felt that Gu Jingchen paid special attention to her.
Maybe it was because he almost recognized her from her back the first time, so he paid special attention to her?
Although she was sure that there was no flaw in her disguise, she still had to be more careful next to avoid arousing greater suspicion.
Su An thought and followed Gu Jingchen cautiously, not daring to relax even a moment.
Fortunately, Gu Jingchen didn't say anything else.
The two of them came downstairs. The driver was not there, so Su An drove them directly to the hotel where the banquet was held.
Soon, the car stopped in front of the hotel.
Before entering the door, Gu Jingchen suddenly stopped and asked, "Did Tang Ze tell you what banquet you are attending tonight?"
"I told you."
Su An hurriedly answered, carefully repeating Tang Ze's words word for word, "Assistant Tang said that today is the birthday banquet of Mr. Dong of the Dong family, and the gifts have been sent. My task tonight is to Mr. Gu."
Assistant and companion."
"Um."
Gu Jingchen nodded, very satisfied with Su An's answer, and didn't ask any more questions.
Then he took him in with him.
The elevator reaches the top floor.
As soon as the door was opened a little, a huge noise came through the narrow gap.
Under the bright lights, everyone gathered together with wine glasses, and it was so lively.
Su An immediately cheered up and followed Gu Jingchen out.
In just a few steps, the two of them immediately became the focus of everyone's attention.
"Mr. Gu! Long time no see!"
Someone had already walked over with a wine glass and greeted Gu Jingchen.
Before he could say a few words, another voice came over in an extremely loud voice.
"Jingchen! You're too late!"
Su An subconsciously followed the sound and looked over, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.
It turned out to be Ye Shaobai!
Why is he here?
She habitually wanted to reach out to hold her glasses, but her fingertips directly touched the corners of her eyes. Only then did she realize that there was nothing covering her face now.
Although it is impossible to be recognized, it is still somewhat stressful to face someone you know without any preparation.
Su An thought, Ye Shaobai had already walked up to him with a wine glass.
His eyes also fell on her, looking around with interest.
"Jingchen, this is..."
"Hello, I am Mr. Gu's assistant, Xia Xiaomo."
Su An hurriedly took the initiative to introduce herself, and then looked at Gu Jingchen with some confusion, asking how to address Ye Shaobai.
Then I heard——
"Oh oh oh, hello, I'm Ye Shaobai."
"Second Young Master Ye."
Su An then took advantage of the situation and called him an honorific.
The status of the Ye family in the imperial capital was not much different from that of the Gu family, so it was not strange for her to recognize him directly.
As expected, neither Ye Shaobai nor Gu Jingchen said anything.
The person who just came to strike up a conversation also knew that his relationship with Gu Jingchen was not as good as that of Ye Shaobai, so he exchanged a few pleasantries and left knowingly.
The other party just left.
Ye Shaobai immediately joked, "I've heard that you wanted to hire another assistant, but I didn't expect that you would act so quickly, and... she's also a beautiful woman?"
As he spoke, he glanced at Su An up and down without hesitation.
Then he seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly frowned slightly.
"you……"
Ye Shaobai murmured one word in a low voice, then suddenly put on a smile and said to Su An, "Miss Xia, could you please help us get two glasses of red wine over there?"
Su An subconsciously looked at Gu Jingchen.
Now that he had no intention of stopping him, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."
After saying that, she turned towards the farthest wine table.
Here, each type of wine is placed on a different table. Ye Shaobai deliberately picked the farthest red wine, probably because he wanted to put it away and talk to Gu Jingchen alone.
But it doesn't matter, her mission tonight is to find a way to make Gu Jingchen drink the "spiked" wine.
Su An took a deep breath and couldn't help but clenched the small handbag in her hand.
far away--
Ye Shaobai looked at Su An's walking back, his eyebrows frowning more and more.
After staring at it for a few more seconds, he asked tentatively, "President Gu, can I interview you? Your requirements for the assistant's appearance are that the height, weight and outline of your assistant must be like your ex-wife?"
When Gu Jingchen heard this, he immediately turned down his face and gave him a slap in the face.
Ye Shaobai snorted softly.
"What kind of expression is this? Am I right? Don't tell me that you don't think she looks like Su An at all! I just said why did you suddenly find a female assistant..."
As he spoke, his expression suddenly became a little incredulous, "Gu Jingchen, isn't it? You don't want to be a stand-in..."
"Ye Shaobai!"
Gu Jingchen heard what he said getting more and more outrageous, and finally couldn't help but scolded him in a low voice.
Then he said helplessly, "She is very professional and passed my interview with Tang Ze."
"Is it really just because of professionalism?"
Ye Shaobai looked suspicious, obviously not believing it.
Gu Jingchen was too lazy to pay attention to him anymore. He glanced at him and stopped talking.
because……
He wasn't sure of the answer either.
But one thing is for sure.
That is, she only has An An in her heart and will never find a substitute.
No one can replace her.
On the other side——
Su An deliberately walked slowly, leaving time for the two of them to talk.
When she came to the wine counter, she glanced at the row of red wine that had been poured in front of her, and then thought of her plan for tonight.
It's too early now.
Leng Yun said that thing works quickly, so...
Su An was thinking about it, and at this moment——
"Miss, can I buy you a drink?"
The greasy voice of a middle-aged man suddenly came from behind, startling Su An, who was in a trance.
She turned around suddenly and immediately saw a fat, oily middle-aged man looking at her with a smile, barely concealing the obscene glint in his eyes.
"Sorry, I have something else to do."
Su An casually picked up two glasses of wine and left.
But the other party clung to him reluctantly and blocked him again.
"Don't leave in a hurry. I have been observing you for a long time. Among all the women present, your temperament is the most special. I think you must have experienced something or have some stories. You are willing to find a quiet place.
Tell me?"
The man thought he was very attractive and winked at Su An.
As soon as I heard this rhetoric, I knew it was his way of chatting up women.
Su An only felt sick to her stomach.
Not wanting to get too entangled with the other party, she suddenly had an idea and took out a business card from her bag and handed it to the man.
"Hello, I am Mr. Gu's assistant. If you have any official business and you want to discuss it with Mr. Gu, I can take you to see him."
Su An moved Gu Jingchen out directly.
When the man heard Gu Jingchen's name, he was stunned for a moment and stared at the business card in his hand carefully.
It seemed that after confirming it several times, he asked in surprise, "Are you Gu Jingchen's assistant? I remember that his assistant is not a man..."
"Assistant Tang has something to do today, so I will accompany Mr. Gu to attend."
Su An was eager to leave as soon as possible. Out of courtesy, she also saw that the other party must be someone with status, so she patiently explained again.
Then he said hurriedly, "Sorry, Mr. Gu is still waiting for me. I'll go back first."
With that said, she stopped staying and hurriedly turned around and headed back in the direction she came from.
As expected, the other party knew better and did not catch up again.
Su An breathed a sigh of relief and continued to think about the train of thought that was interrupted just now.
Can't take medicine now...
We can only wait until the banquet is almost over.
Find a way to dissociate the wine in her hand from her...
Because if she didn't succeed once, Gu Jingchen would have to suspect her.
If she also takes it together, afterwards... she can pretend that she was accidentally injured because someone wanted to target Gu Jingchen.
I just don’t know if Gu Jingchen will believe her...
This matter is really not as easy as imagined, and even a little tricky.
Now we can only act according to circumstances.
Su An thought, almost reaching Gu Jingchen, and quickly calmed down.
Ye Shaobai has long since disappeared. I don’t know where he went with the wine glass.
Su An took two steps quickly, but before she could return to Gu Jingchen, a woman came up to him holding a wine glass!
"Mr. Gu, why are you standing here alone? Do you want a drink?"
The other party has a bright appearance, and her every move exudes the arrogance of a young lady from an aristocratic family. She looks at Gu Jingchen with eyes that do not hide her admiration at all.
"No need."
Gu Jingchen refused without thinking and frowned immediately.
The other party was obviously not that easy to deal with. When he refused, he changed the topic and said, "I wonder what Mr. Gu has been busy with recently? I heard my father mention it two days ago that he had a cooperation project and wanted to work with Mr. Gu.
Let’s talk…”
Gu Jingchen's brows furrowed even more tightly.
If it were normal, he would not even bother to reply, and would simply turn away and leave, which would not do anything.
But tonight is at someone else's birthday party.
No matter what, he still had to talk about some etiquette and deal with it patiently.
Just thinking——
"Mr. Gu, Second Young Master Ye was looking for you just now. Do you want to go over now?"
A cold voice suddenly intervened between the two of them.
Gu Jingchen immediately agreed, "Well, I'll be there right away."
With that said, he turned around and walked towards the other side of the hall.
Su An smiled at the strange woman just now.
Immediately after seeing the other party's face, his expression suddenly changed, and he received a big eye roll.
She didn't pay attention, and the two men chased Gu Jingchen, turned around and left with him.
The next second——
“Well done.”
Gu Jingchen seemed to be very satisfied with her rescue just now, and even praised her.
Then, the two of them exchanged a few words with others, and not long after, tonight's protagonist, Mr. Dong, arrived.
The old man was very old. After accepting everyone's blessings and greeting the familiar juniors, he was helped upstairs to rest.
Although it is said to be a birthday banquet, it is actually just an opportunity for these people to "communicate".
Gu Jingchen never liked such occasions very much. Seeing that it was almost time, he didn't want to stay any longer.
"Let's go."
He pointed in the direction of the elevator and motioned for Su An to leave with him.
"yes."
Su An hurriedly followed, a trace of annoyance flashing in her eyes.
Is Gu Jingchen ready to leave now?
She hasn't found the right opportunity yet...
Just as I was thinking about it, at this moment——
Ye Shaobai wandered around somewhere and found it again with a wine glass!
"Jingchen, are you planning to leave now?"
He seemed to have drunk a lot, and his eyes looked a little blurry, but his consciousness was still sober.
"Um."
Gu Jingchen nodded.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Shaobai grabbed his sleeve!
"Why are we walking? It's been a long time since you drank with me. It's rare that I caught you today and you still want to run away? Come on, let's find a quiet place to have a drink!"
As he spoke, he wanted to take Gu Jingchen to a remote terrace.
Gu Jingchen reluctantly wanted to refuse, but just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard Ye Shaobai continue to complain, "Tell me about you! You have been missing for more than half a year! I want to drink with you, it is harder than reaching the sky!"
No! You must have two drinks with me today!"
With that said, the two of them almost walked to the terrace.
Su An followed closely, with a glimmer of hope rising in her heart.
Ye Shaobai appeared just in time!
In the past, when these two people got together to drink, there was never a time when they didn't drink too much!
She has another chance!
Su An nervously waited for Gu Jingchen's reply.
Then I heard him finally reluctantly agree, "Well, let's have two drinks."
"Okay! I knew you couldn't bear to refuse me!"
Ye Shaobai was happy now. As he spoke, he immediately turned back to Su An and said, "Miss Xia, please bring us some more wine. Instead of just one glass, go directly to the waiter and ask for two bottles!"
"good."
Su An immediately agreed, turned and left without looking back, then quickly found the waiter and explained the situation.
The other party immediately agreed and asked Su An to wait here for a while, and immediately asked someone to get the wine.
Watching the waiter leave, Su An casually found a seat against the wall.
