Tang Ze didn't notice, and continued, "Regarding this project, we had a preliminary preliminary negotiation with Luo Yurou's agent. They didn't care much about the endorsement fee, but cared more about the artist himself.
Luo Yurou happens to be attending EL's fashion show this time. They require that whether it is a fashion show or during cooperation, Luo Yurou's main stylist must be her own royal stylist. As for everything else, everything
Everything can be discussed.”
Gu Jingchen didn't speak. Although he was a little distracted, he took a general idea of what Tang Ze said.
He has already seen Luo Yurou's personal stylist.
It's on the staff list in front of you.
Rather, it is still a name that he is no longer familiar with.
Zhu, Zhi, Le.
Gu Jingchen stared at the three familiar words, and memories of the past rushed to his face.
The last time he saw her was when he handed her the keys to the house. After that, he thought that An An might contact his only friend, so he had someone keep an eye on Zhu Zhile for a long time. It wasn't until the past two months that he had a little
Relaxed a bit.
Because, for so long, he found no sign that she had contacted An An.
But……
Gu Jingchen's eyes flickered for a moment, and for some reason, he suddenly thought of Xia Xiaomo.
Just before El's anniversary, he hired an assistant who was somewhat similar to An An.
It just so happened that at this time, the makeup artist who was pre-selected as the spokesperson for EL was also An An's good friend...
Gu Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly, wondering if he had made any mistakes before.
Maybe……
Zhu Zhile and An An have always had a special contact information, but he didn't know it?
He felt that Xia Xiaomo looked a bit like An An.
Lu Ziying also felt the same way.
What about Zhu Zhile?
What would happen if she saw Xia Xiaomo?
Will he pretend to be nonchalant and don’t know him at all, or... will he reveal his fault?
Gu Jingchen came back to his senses instantly, and then heard Tang Ze continue to ask, "If you have no objection, I will make arrangements?"
"What are the arrangements?"
Gu Jingchen had been distracted just now and almost didn't hear a word.
Tang Ze repeated it again, "Because el is an international first-tier brand, Luo Yurou wants to discuss it with her agent in person, but she is currently preparing for fashion week, and she is also filming on the set, so she may
We don’t have much time, so we need to send someone there. If there is no problem, I will arrange the manpower..."
"Wait a moment."
When Gu Jingchen heard the last few words, he frowned and interrupted.
After two seconds of silence, he suddenly said, "I will discuss this cooperation in person."
"Are you going in person?"
Tang Ze's face was full of surprise.
This is just a normal spokesperson cooperation. Even his assistant is making a fuss about it. Mr. Gu actually wants to go in person?
Tang Ze was very puzzled, but his professionalism still allowed him to quickly reply, "Okay, Luo Yurou will be shooting at an impurity store in Linshi tomorrow, I will go and prepare..."
"etc."
Gu Jingchen didn't wait for Tang Ze to finish speaking and stopped him again.
Tangze had no choice but to stop again.
Then he heard Gu Jingchen continue, "You don't need to go, just inform Xia Xiaomo and let her prepare."
"Assistant Xia?"
Tang Ze didn't react for a while.
Then he noticed Gu Jingchen's face darkened and said immediately, "Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."
After saying that, seeing that Gu Jingchen seemed to have nothing else to say, Tang Ze turned around and left.
Then he went directly to Su An.
"On business trip?"
Su An was also a little surprised when he heard the news.
Tang Ze also said helplessly, "Yes, we don't know how many days we have to go yet. Assistant Xia, I know you are very busy during this time, and I planned to accompany Mr. Gu on the business trip, but Mr. Gu appointed you
Follow along, so..."
As Tang Ze spoke, he couldn't help but look at Su An calmly, feeling strange in his heart.
He has been advancing the investigation of tattoo artists from foreign countries as told by Gu Jingchen.
But there is no progress yet.
Could it be...that Assistant Xia really has some connection with Madam?
Tang Ze dared not draw any conclusions.
Then I heard Su An agree, "It's okay, then leave it to me. You can also spend more time with Mengmeng."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Tang Ze nodded, and then added, "This mission is not difficult. The cooperation has basically been discussed. We just need to confirm some details when the time comes. The most important thing is to see Luo Yurou.
Do you have any other requirements? As for her, you may need to search the Internet for some information about her preferences and personality, so that we can communicate more easily."
"Okay, don't worry."
Su An nodded, feeling that this matter was not difficult at all.
She naturally knows about the famous movie queen and has seen many of her works.
After chatting for a few more words, the matter was finally settled.
The next day——
Early in the morning, because Su An had some extra work to deal with, the driver first went to Gu's house to pick up Gu Jingchen.
Only then did he plan to pick up Su An at the agreed intersection.
In the car——
Gu Jingchen was leaning on the back of his chair with his eyes closed to relax.
He didn't sleep well last night and woke up from his dreams three times.
Every time, it was the scene in the office that day when I was drunk.
It's just that the picture of the person in my arms that was originally unclear has become clearer and clearer, and...
It was Xia Xiaomo's face that gradually took over the dominant position!
Even the last time, he saw her hand, which was injured and wrapped in a light-colored handkerchief!
I still have the shattered photo at hand!
But didn’t that just happen yesterday?
After that, he never fell asleep and kept his eyes open until dawn.
Xia Xiaomo, Su An.
These two names have almost become a nightmare that he has been unable to let go of for some time.
Before he could fully understand her identity, he was almost trapped in place, unable to move even an inch.
Gu Jingchen sighed inwardly and subconsciously went to get the canned coffee next to his seat.
But it came up empty.
He opened his eyes suddenly and realized that Xia Xiaomo did not get in the car first today.
Usually, as long as she was in the car, she would first put all the things Gu Jingchen might use in the car within easy reach.
when……
How could he be so accustomed to and dependent on her arrangements?
I think back then, even Tang Ze had to practice by his side for a full year before developing some tacit understanding.
But Xia Xiaomo completed it in less than two months.
His proficiency seems to be a natural fit for him.
It's like... An An used to take care of him in every detail.
Gu Jingchen couldn't help but subconsciously compare the two people together.
Then he woke up suddenly, and a trace of annoyance flashed quickly in his eyes.
Now, he no longer knows whether it is right or wrong to compare two people together.
Those rational instincts seem to freeze instantly when they come across the names Su An and Xia Xiaomo.
Thinking——
He suddenly felt the car stop.
Gu Jingchen suddenly came back to his senses, and then from the corner of his eye, he saw that the car door had been opened, and Xia Xiaomo, dressed in professional attire, had opened the door and walked up.
"Mr. Gu."
Su An said hello to Gu Jingchen.
Gu Jingchen nodded and said nothing, but he habitually and subconsciously paid attention to her out of the corner of his eye. He watched her get into the car and sit next to him, and then closed the door.
He was restless because of the dream at that moment, and his heart suddenly calmed down all the way, as if the people around him had some magical power that could make people feel at ease.
The car started slowly and continued to drive towards the highway.
It will take at least a few more hours to reach Linshi.
Gu Jingchen didn't speak, because he didn't sleep well, so he planned to close his eyes and rest.
But I didn’t expect——
"Mr. Gu."
Su An suddenly called Gu Jingchen.
Then he said, took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from the bag and handed it to him.
"What's this?"
Gu Jingchen's eyebrows tightened.
He never accepts other people's things casually, and hates others "giving him gifts for a certain purpose."
Su An knew from his expression that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly opened the lid and exposed the contents.
Seeing clearly what was inside, Gu Jingchen was slightly startled.
Su An also continued to explain, "Yesterday... your photo frame broke. I searched online for a long time and couldn't find the same one, so I guess yours should be customized. If I make a new one, maybe
It will take some time, so I picked one with a similar style and wanted you to use it first. After all... I am also responsible for what happened yesterday."
She spoke sincerely, with full apology in her tone.
She also thought about it for a long time yesterday, and then selected the most similar style within the range that could be delivered today, so as to prevent Gu Jingchen from having a grudge against her because of this matter.
Gu Jingchen's usually calm face showed a rare look of surprise that had not subsided for a long time.
He was really concerned about yesterday's photo.
But I didn't expect that Xia Xiaomo would prepare these.
Such attentiveness and consideration are only found in An An...
Gu Jingchen subconsciously reached out and took the photo frame.
Then he realized what he had done, his breath suddenly suffocated, and two people appeared in his mind at the same time.
Then slowly they merge into one.
If possible, how he wished that the person in front of him was An An!
However, it was undeniable that even though the Xia Xiaomo in front of him had a completely different face from An An, he still felt a long-lost sense of security and peace from her.
Could it be that he is really... attracted to this type of woman and can't empathize...
Gu Jingchen clenched his fists instantly, and a flash of struggle flashed in his eyes.
But looking at the photo frame in front of me, I suddenly thought of something as if I was enlightened.
His tolerance towards Xia Xiaomo and his concern for Xia Xiaomo.
I might even be a little touched by her...
Is it really just because she looks like An An?
Or... is it because she is this kind of person?
And he happens to be attracted to people with such a personality?
Gu Jingchen's mind was a mess, and all the characters seemed to be beating.
Lu Ziying accused him of finding a substitute...
Ye Shaobai also teased Xia Xiaomo like this when he first met him.
My head hurts so much it's about to explode.
Gu Jingchen's sleepy nerves were pounding because he didn't sleep well last night, and his face became a little worse.
But...he has already accepted the things.
And it was undeniable that the moment he saw the photo frame, he actually... felt a little happy.
Complex emotions and a sense of guilt for betraying Su An suddenly surged into his heart, making him feel a little tight in his chest.
Su An keenly noticed his strangeness and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Gu, your face looks a little bad. Are you feeling unwell?"
Gu Jingchen nodded and then opened the car window without saying a word.
The driver in front subconsciously slowed down when he heard this, and said worriedly, "Mr. Gu, there is a hospital ahead..."
"Need not."
Gu Jingchen rejected the other party's suggestion with two words, and then said in a deep voice, "Maybe I didn't get a good rest last night, so let's continue driving."
"Then you should rest for a while. It's still early to reach your destination."
Upon hearing this, Su An hurriedly took out a small blanket from under the seat and handed it to Gu Jingchen.
Gu Jingchen felt warm again because of her attentiveness and took it casually.
Then I couldn't help but take out my phone and edit a message quickly.
[How is the investigation going in e-country? 】
Soon, a reply came from the other side.
[Mr. Gu, we are still investigating one by one, and we haven’t found any news about Madam yet.]
Gu Jingchen glanced at it and didn't reply. Instead, he turned off his phone and finally closed his eyes completely.
The knowledge that Xia Xiaomo was sitting next to him gradually calmed down his nerves.
Not long after, he fell into a deep sleep.
Three hours later——
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu?"
A gentle voice sounded in my ears.
Gu Jingchen was in a daze. When he heard clearly that it was a woman's voice, his first reaction was——
"An'an!"
He opened his eyes and grabbed the hand of the person next to him!
Then he saw the person in front of him looking at him with big eyes, looking a little surprised.
Gu Jingchen was stunned for a second.
Then he reacted quickly.
He regarded Xia Xiaomo as An An again!
"Feel sorry."
Gu Jingchen quickly let go of his hand.
Su An also quickly adjusted her expression and picked up her bag pretending not to care, but her heart was agitated.
She has never been able to figure out what aroused Gu Jingchen's suspicion.
The moment I was grabbed by the hand and called out my real name, my soul almost flew away!
But……
As long as she didn't mention it, Gu Jingchen didn't seem to explain too much besides saying sorry.
Just like it is now.
The driver in front of you will also act like you didn't hear anything.
Thinking about it, Su An pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Mr. Gu, we have arrived. Do you need to rest for a while before going up?"
"Need not."
Gu Jingchen had completely woken up. He glanced at the building in front of him and remembered the purpose of bringing Su An here today.
Movie queen Luo Yurou had a magazine shoot in this building today.
And her royal makeup artist——
Zhu Zhile will also be there.
Hopefully, her performance will not disappoint him.
As long as there is anything unusual about Xia Xiaomo and Zhu Zhile, he will not let it go!
And it is enough proof that even if Xia Xiaomo is not An An, she definitely does not have anything to do with An An as she told her!
