Mu Ci introduced them with a smile: "This is my new assistant, Gu Ming, and this is my wife, Zhou Shuo. I might need you to take care of me for some things in the future."
Gu Ming replied very respectfully: "Yes, please let me know if you have anything to say."
Zhou Shuo was very surprised and asked directly, "Don't you have a company at home? Why are you working as Mu Ci's assistant?"
This question was asked directly to Gu Ming.
Gu Ming looked up at the bright girl in front of him, his heart inexplicably warmed, and he said frankly: "The company belongs to my father, it has nothing to do with me. I want to take advantage of my youth to gain experience and learn some skills. My parents also support me very much."
Zhou Shuo nodded as he listened, "Although I don't understand your situation, I still think you did the right thing."
Mu Ci laughed and said, "You don't understand, yet you're making random comments?"
The question and answer between the two made Gu Ming's last bit of restraint disappear.
Although the Gu family cannot be compared with the Mu family, they also have some financial resources. The fact that he works as an assistant to Mu Ci while being the young master of the Gu family will indeed make many people puzzled and even ridicule him.
But now, Gu Ming has been reborn after a serious illness. After a long talk with his father, he re-examined his past and future plans and decided to start over and fight for a bright future for himself and the Gu family.
Taking this first step today was not easy for him. He had prepared himself mentally, but the moment he saw Zhou Shuo, he still felt a little overwhelmed.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Shuo asked her question frankly, which made him let down his guard.
Zhou Shuo handed them the snacks in his hand and said with a smile, "You two should try them. By the way, today is Saturday, are you going to work?"
Mu Ci gestured for Gu Ming to take the plate, "We have business to attend to, you can play by yourself."
Zhou Shuo nodded, "Okay, I'll wait for Chen Su. If you need anything, just call me and I'll bring it to you. Remember to eat the snacks, they're delicious!"
He watched Gu Ming push Mu Ci's wheelchair into the elevator, and did not forget to remind him from behind.
Mu Ci stretched out a hand and shook his palm outward to indicate that he understood.
Zhou Shuo happily turned around and prepared to go to the kitchen to get more snacks, but was blocked by Zhou Le.
Zhou Le's face darkened as he asked viciously, "Why is Gu Ming here?"
Zhou Shuo was stunned for a moment, then turned around to look at the two people who had already entered the elevator and asked, "Didn't you hear us talking just now?"
Of course Zhou Le heard it.
However, she didn't understand what Gu Ming meant.
Was he here to be Mu Ci's assistant because of her? Was he trying to get revenge on her?
She felt inexplicably anxious, so she took her anger out on Zhou Shuo, sternly saying, "You just want revenge on me, right? You just can't stand seeing me get along well, right? What grudge do you have against me? Why are you doing this to me?"
Zhou Shuo was baffled. "Zhou Le, can you please speak properly? What are you doing?"
Zhou Shuo’s mind was filled with the delicious snacks in the kitchen, and he was very unhappy with Zhou Le’s unreasonable behavior.
Zhou Le thought Zhou Shuo was playing dumb and grabbed Zhou Shuo's arm. "Tell me clearly, what do you want? Do you want to threaten me with Gu Ming? Don't even think about it! Zhou Shuo! I've tolerated you until today because I feel sorry for you and I'm too lazy to bother with you! Don't be so ungrateful. Don't force me—"
"Let go!" With a crisp shout, Zhou Le was pushed away by a strong force.
She stopped and saw a tall and thin woman holding Zhou Shuo's arm to check. She had used too much force and her nails dug into Zhou Shuo's flesh, leaving shallow blood marks.
"Who are you? Why are you so rough?" The woman turned around and scolded Zhou Le.
She is Shen Su.
Zhou Le's heart sank. When she saw Mu En standing next to Shen Su, looking at her expressionlessly, Zhou Le's tears welled up.
"Sister—" Zhou Le said in a trembling voice, looking at Zhou Shuo.
Zhou Shuo frowned as he looked at the wound on his arm and raised his hand to stop her: "Stop! Stop acting. I won't buy it."
Chen Su also frowned, "Who is this? How could the Mu family bully people to this extent?"
She turned around and looked at Mu En, thinking that this was one of the young ladies from the Mu family.
Mu En hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't be like this, Chen Su, you have a prejudice against the Mu family. This is not the young lady of the Mu family, but my sister-in-law's younger sister, her name is Zhou Le."
He glanced at Zhou Le intentionally or unintentionally, with a warning in his eyes.
Zhou Le's eyes slowly dropped, and tears fell like beads from a broken string. He looked so pitiful.
Chen Su: "Tsk! How come she's so vicious and ruthless one second and so pure and innocent the next? Mu En, is this girl acting like this just because she saw you?"
Mu En quickly smiled and said, "You can just die unjustly."
Zhou Shuo's eyes wandered between the two of them, and he was not sure whether they had any relationship.
Mu En and Zhou Le are both excellent actors.
"Okay, take me to your room and I'll help you disinfect it. Your nails are so long, I don't know if there are any bacteria." Shen Su pulled Zhou Shuo's hand and left Mu En aside.
Zhou Shuo said, "I'll take you to the kitchen first. They made some delicious snacks today. I promise you'll like them!"
Shen Su smiled and said, "Can you still be a little more promising?"
"Why should I be successful in front of you? Aren't you jealous of my success?" Zhou Shuo asked seriously.
"Zhou Shuo!" Shen Su gritted his teeth.
The two of them chatted and laughed, walking away arm in arm.
Zhou Le looked at Mu En with tears in his eyes and called softly: "Brother——"
"Cough." Mu En coughed heavily, interrupting Zhou Le.
He lowered his voice and said, "Don't ruin my business! You're fine."
The first sentence is harsh and cold, but the second sentence is full of infinite warmth.
Zhou Le's heart was like ice and fire, with mixed feelings. Looking at Mu En's back, she forced herself to straighten her back and gritted her teeth to calm her mind. She would never let anyone defeat her. Mu En was hers, and the position of the second young lady of the Mu family was also hers!
She wants to accompany Mu En to become the heir of the Mu family, and she wants to become the future mistress of the Mu family!
