She didn't mean to eavesdrop, but when she arrived, the door of the CEO's office was not closed tightly, and she happened to hear Gu Jingyan say: "She is the only one in my heart and eyes. I only want her. There is no room for another woman in my heart..."
It made her a little curious. Her boss seemed so cold-hearted. What kind of outstanding girl could she be? She was so lucky to catch his eye and make him so affectionate?
So he resisted the urge to knock on the door and go in immediately, nor did he leave quickly.
Until she heard Lawrence Lu talk about the "child-bearing system", "five lives of love", and even her name...
She lost her composure instantly.
The crisp sound of the water cup falling to the ground also startled Gu Jingyan and Lu Yuhang, and they both looked out the door.
"Sorry." Li Shushu hurriedly bowed towards the door, staggered back to her seat, hurriedly packed her bag and wanted to leave - she was not mentally prepared. Since her last chat with Ye Xiwu, the possibility of the real existence of the male protagonist in the plane had been completely cleared from her mind.
When he learned the truth, he had no idea how to face Gu Jingyan and just wanted to escape quickly.
The office was brightly lit, and many people were working overtime.
But Gu Jingyan didn't care about that.
He had always been afraid of women, but after Lu Yuhang's reminder, he immediately understood the priorities. He instantly abandoned all thoughts of retreating, forced himself to muster up the courage, and quickly chased to Li Shushu's seat. He stretched out his large, bony hand and grabbed her arm.
"Shu'er, let's talk..." His voice was hoarse and breathless, and the word "Shu'er" made Li Shushu tremble all over: in the real world, everyone called her Shushu, and no one had ever called her "Shu'er".
A long-lost feeling of familiarity made her whole body go limp, and she was dragged uncontrollably by him to the president's office.
Seeing his brother's rare performance, Lawrence Lu curled his lips in satisfaction, and then very considerately withdrew.
He also called out to everyone in the office: "I declare that it's time to get off work today. No one is allowed to work overtime. Leave the office immediately."
"Oh yeah! Mr. Lu is so wise!"
The programmers and clerks who were sitting at their desks were busy with their work while secretly eating gossip about the president and his intern secretary.
Suddenly hearing the second boss's such reasonable and considerate request, everyone became excited instantly. The desire to go home early overwhelmed all curiosity, and everyone cheered.
In less than two minutes, no one left the office.
Seeing that the surroundings had finally quieted down, Lawrence Lu turned around, glanced meaningfully at the heavy door of the president's office, curled his lips, and whispered: "Brother, I can only help you so far, come on!"
Then he left humming a little tune.
Gu Jingyan pulled Li Shushu into his office without saying anything. He slammed the heavy door shut and locked it.
He held the door open with both hands and held Li Shushu between his elbows. "Shu'er, listen to me. I didn't hide this from you on purpose. I only found out later that you and I were wearing the same system. I just... didn't know how to tell you..."
"Although I didn't tell you right away, I feel very lucky to have met you in the real world. I feel like I must have saved the galaxy in my previous life..."
"Shu'er, ever since I knew it was you, all I've been thinking about day and night is how to meet you in real life so that it will be more natural and not scare you.
I didn't expect it to turn out like this, I'm sorry!"
A familiar masculine scent and voice surrounded Li Shushu, causing her heart to gradually calm down from the initial panic she felt when she learned the truth.
She listened carefully to his every word, her eyes tracing every contour of his face: So, this is what he looks like in real life?
Those vague shadows in my mind finally took on concrete faces.
Those memories that had been buried in the dust flashed in her mind one by one, and became extremely clear again.
"Shu'er, even though you already have a boyfriend, I...I still want to try my best to win him over!
I’m not bad looking and my family background is not bad either. Although I’m not as high and mighty as those characters in the plane, I will do my best to love you, only love you, and treat you well, just like them in the plane…” Gu Jingyan said this with a wry smile.
It was rare for the domineering president to say so many words at once, but Li Shushu didn't seem to care at all, just staring at his face in a daze.
She suddenly stretched out her slender white fingers and touched the tip of his nose. "So there really is a small mole here..."
He didn't understand why and let her fingers rub the tip of his nose, which brought him a tingling sensation.
"Are you... still willing... to give me another chance? At worst, we can compete fairly." He swallowed his saliva, very nervous, and asked cautiously, his eyes red as he looked at her, his eyes sparkling.
"Puchi" Li Shushu was suddenly amused by his serious look, "Who told you that I have a boyfriend?"
Gu Jingyan was surprised, "No, in the afternoon... I heard you call me baby...?"
Li Shushu suddenly realized: "Oh? Him? That's my robot."
Gu Jingyan: ...
"So..." Infinite hope rose in his heart, "Does that mean I still have a chance?"
Li Shushu smiled brightly: "What do you think?"
She is very satisfied with the robot at home. Once, she even thought that if she never met the right person in her life, it would be nice to live with the robot until old age, which would save a lot of trouble.
