Gu Jisui didn't seem to notice Su Yao's mood. He focused on the documents in his hands and occasionally looked up to see Su Yao's work progress. The distance between the two was getting closer, but also seemed to be getting farther and farther away.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open and a middle-aged man walked in. He was wearing a black suit and had a serious face. He was obviously a senior leader of the company.
The man walked up to Gu Jisui and talked in a low voice. Su Yao couldn't hear their conversation, but from their serious expressions, it could be seen that the company seemed to have some problems that needed to be solved.
Gu Jisui listened to the man's report with a frown on his face. He glanced at Su Yao from time to time, as if looking for something. Su Yao was uneasy, worried that something might go wrong in her work and that Gu Jisui would be dissatisfied.
Finally, Gu Jisui interrupted the man and said in a deep voice, "We need to find a solution to this problem, not just report it to me."
The man lowered his head in embarrassment. He understood what Gu Jisui meant. He turned and left the office, leaving Gu Jisui alone to think.
Gu Jisui looked at Su Yao again, with a hint of expectation in his eyes. Su Yao understood what he meant. She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mr. Gu, I think this problem can be considered from this perspective..."
She explained her opinion in detail, and Gu Jisui listened to her suggestion with a glint of appreciation in his eyes. He nodded, indicating that he agreed with Su Yao's opinion.
"Okay, I'll take your advice." Gu Jisui said, "Su Yao, you're very smart."
Su Yao smiled slightly, she knew that her idea was recognized.
In the following days, Gu Jisui paid more attention to Su Yao's work performance. He would come to her desk from time to time to check her work progress and give some suggestions and guidance. Su Yao worked hard, hoping to repay Gu Jisui's trust and expectations.
One afternoon, Gu Jisui stopped Su Yao who was about to get off work.
"Su Yao, come with me." His voice was serious.
Su Yao's heart tightened. She thought Gu Jisui was going to criticize her work, so she quickly put away her computer and followed him out of the office.
Gu Jisui brought Su Yao to a conference room, closed the door, and motioned Su Yao to sit down. Su Yao sat on the chair nervously, not knowing what Gu Jisui wanted to talk to her about.
Gu Jisui looked at Su Yao and was silent for a while. Then he said, "Su Yao, I know you are very capable, but there are some things you need to work harder to do."
Su Yao's heart tightened. She thought Gu Jisui was criticizing her work. But she soon discovered that his tone was not harsh, but rather encouraging.
"I hope you can be more proactive in your work and not just complete basic tasks," Gu Jisui continued. "If you have any ideas or suggestions, feel free to communicate with me."
Su Yao breathed a sigh of relief. She understood what Gu Jisui meant. He was not criticizing her, but encouraging her to realize her greater potential.
"I will try my best." Su Yao said firmly.
Gu Jisui nodded. Looking at this face that was so similar to Bai Lan, Gu Jisui's heart moved. He cleared his throat and asked softly, "Su Yao, are you free after get off work? I'd like to buy you a cup of coffee."
Su Yao raised her head, her eyes flashing with surprise. She didn't expect Gu Jisui to invite her for coffee, and she felt a little uneasy, but also a little expectant. She bit her lip lightly, nodded, and whispered, "Okay, I'll be free after work."
Gu Jisui smiled slightly, secretly satisfied in his heart.
He walked over to his desk and started sorting some papers.
Su Yao continued to operate the computer attentively, but her heart was restless.
She thought about the look in Gu Jisui's eyes just now, and the tone in his voice when he invited her to have coffee, and felt that there seemed to be a wonderful tacit understanding between her and Gu Jisui.
When it was almost time to get off work, Gu Jisui walked to Su Yao's side and asked softly, "Su Yao, are you off work?"
Su Yao raised her head and saw Gu Jisui's smiling face, her heart was moved. She nodded gently, picked up her bag, and followed Gu Jisui out of the office.
Gu Jisui took Su Yao to a coffee shop.
The environment in the store is very elegant, with soft music flowing in the air. Gu Jisui and Su Yao sat by the window, facing the street view outside the window.
The waiter brought the menu, Gu Jisui took it and flipped through it skillfully. He asked, "Su Yao, what would you like to drink?"
Su Yao looked at the photo on the menu and hesitated. She didn't know much about coffee, but she knew she liked to drink latte. She looked up at Gu Jisui and whispered, "Can I have a latte?"
Gu Jisui nodded and said to the waiter, "Two lattes."
After the waiter left with the menu, Gu Jisui started chatting with Su Yao.
"Su Yao, do you know Bai Lan?" Gu Jisui asked curiously.
Su Yao was slightly stunned, then shook her head and said, "I don't know, who is Bai Lan?"
Gu Jisui was a little surprised and asked, "Do you know Xu Zhixu?"
Su Yao shook her head again and said, "I don't know him, who is he?"
"Su Yao, how long have you been working here?" Gu Jisui suddenly asked.
Su Yao thought about it, then replied: "Almost a year."
"Are you satisfied with this job?" Gu Jisui asked again.
Su Yao nodded and said, "I'm very satisfied. This job is very suitable for me."
After hearing this, Gu Jisui felt a little relieved.
At this time, the waiter brought two cups of latte. Gu Jisui picked up a cup of coffee and tasted it gently. Su Yao sipped the coffee, looking very enjoyable.
Gu Jisui looked at Su Yao drinking coffee and felt more and more that this girl could be a good chess piece.
In the following chat, Gu Jisui learned that Su Yao was a girl who loved life. She liked traveling, watching movies, listening to music, and learning new knowledge. Gu Jisui's impression of Su Yao was even deeper. He felt that this girl was not only beautiful in appearance, but also rich in heart.
After drinking coffee, Gu Jisui and Su Yao walked out of the coffee shop together.
They walked on the street, chatting about various topics, as if they had already become friends with each other.
Su Yao felt reluctant to send her downstairs to her house.
"I have something... As a friend, can you do me a favor?" Gu Jisui said hesitantly, his brows furrowed and his expression slightly nervous.
Su Yao turned around, her dark and bright eyes full of questions.
"You tell me, as long as I can help." Su Yao said.
