Chen Rui said as soon as he entered the door.
"Everyone, please work hard today! A new batch of data suddenly arrived from the lab! Today's workload is a bit heavy, so you might need to work overtime. But Mr. Gu and I will stay and work with you! Let's work hard and finish it soon so we can go home early!"
"yes……"
Everyone forced themselves to agree, and no one objected.
Su An felt helpless.
Looks like I have to stand up my senior today...
He had been busy for two days, and today he finally had some time to rest, but she had to start working overtime...
However, there is nothing we can do about it.
Su An thought about it, quickly picked up his phone, stood up and walked out.
However, he didn't notice that Gu Jingchen had been paying attention to this side and had a relieved look on his face.
She came to the corridor and called Lu Ziting.
It only rang twice before being picked up immediately.
"An An? Are you off work? Why are you so early today?"
The environment over there was a bit noisy, and it sounded like Lu Ziting was still on the road. He said anxiously, "Wait for me, I'll be there in ten minutes. There's a bit of a traffic jam today..."
"No, senior."
Su An interrupted hurriedly and replied apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have to work overtime today at the last minute. I'm not sure when I can finish, so I probably won't be able to have dinner with you..."
"I see..."
Lu Ziting's voice slowed down instantly, sounding a little regretful.
But it only took a second before he immediately comforted her.
"It's okay. You don't have to apologize for this kind of thing. After all, it's all for work. I was very busy the past two days. Maybe God is testing me on purpose, letting me experience the feeling of missing someone a little more..."
“Senior…”
Su An didn't expect him to say he missed her again, and couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable.
Why didn’t I realize before that such a calm person like my senior could come up with such easy words to cheer people up?
Lu Ziting chuckled and noticed Su An's shyness. His mood, which had been a little low just now, instantly became better.
He quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, are you the only one staying here to work overtime? Is the workload heavy?"
"No, our entire team is staying, including the boss and..."
Su An paused for a moment, but ultimately did not mention Gu Jingchen's name. He simply skipped over it and said, "There are more than ten people in the village, so it shouldn't be too late. It will probably be over in about two hours."
"That's fine, it won't be too boring with more people around. As for me... I'll just go out to eat with friends, and it won't be boring either, so don't feel guilty."
Lu Ziting continued speaking along with Su An's words, but did not ignore her pause just now.
Then he continued gently, "Then go get busy. The sooner you start, the sooner you can finish."
"Tuo."
Su An agreed obediently, then hung up the phone and returned to the office.
Everyone has already started preparing to tackle the new work.
Su An didn't dare to waste time and hurried to join in.
The working group personally appointed by Gu Jingchen is naturally extremely efficient.
But in just over an hour, almost two-thirds of the work had been completed.
Everyone is a little tired.
Seeing that Su An had yawned twice in a row, Gu Jingchen hurriedly said, "Let's pause for a moment and have a rest."
As if they had received a special pardon, everyone immediately put down their work and leaned back in their chairs to regain their spirits.
Su An was no exception. He slowly reached out and rubbed his eyebrows to relax.
Gu Jingchen couldn't help but look at her, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.
actually……
That’s all for today.
His goal has been achieved.
or……
Wait a little longer, until all the work is done, he can treat everyone to dinner.
This way An An won't worry too much...
Gu Jingchen was thinking, the next second——
“Knock knock knock—”
There was a sudden knock on the glass door in the distance!
Almost everyone looked over subconsciously.
Gu Jingchen and Su An's expressions suddenly changed at the same time!
It's just that the former is surprise.
The latter was a bit of a surprise.
The person standing at the door turned out to be Lu Ziting!!!
"Senior?"
Su An reacted for two seconds and stood up quickly. Then he saw that he was holding two large bags in his hands, which seemed to be filled with milk tea and food.
Seeing this, Lu Ziting came in and smiled gracefully at the group of curious looks in the room. Then he met Gu Jingchen's cold eyes squarely.
Another touch and then separation.
"An An, this is..."
Qin Rou started gossiping first.
Then, even Chen Rui, who was not far away, asked curiously, "Su An, this is... your boyfriend?"
The last three words made the air freeze for a moment.
Gu Jingchen's eyebrows jumped suddenly, and he almost used up all his strength to control his emotions so as not to stand up and explode on the spot.
Su An was also stunned for a moment, and hurriedly explained, "Boss, this... this is..."
She didn't know what to say for a moment.
He was afraid that a direct denial would hurt Lu Ziting's reputation.
But the two of them are not in that kind of relationship yet...
And Gu Jingchen was also present...
What if he suddenly says something he shouldn't, wouldn't that make things even more chaotic?
Su An was struggling, and the next second——
"An An is not my girlfriend yet."
Lu Ziting answered this question frankly and revealed his identity as a "pursuer" without any hesitation.
As soon as the words fell——
"Oh~"
Qin Rou suddenly started to make trouble with a wicked smile.
"Not yet, but will it be in the future?"
As soon as she finished speaking, someone next to her immediately echoed, "Of course it is!"
Anyway, it was already time to get off work, and there were only about ten of them left in the company, so everyone relaxed a lot.
"Qin Rou..."
Su An looked at her with some displeasure, signaling her not to make trouble.
Then Lu Ziting seemed to chuckle and continued.
"I'm sorry to bother you all so suddenly. An An suddenly said she had to work overtime today. I was worried that she wouldn't have dinner on time and would feel unwell, so I came here out of concern. I also brought some food for everyone. It seems that my timing is not bad. You all seem to be resting, so why not eat something first and then continue working? I'll be there in a moment and won't keep you late."
"Hey! There's something to eat!"
Qin Rou was the first to stand up out of respect, and then deliberately complained about her boss, "I was originally planning to lead the charge to rip off Mr. Chen or Mr. Gu today! I didn't expect this handsome guy to get ahead of me!"
Chen Rui smiled and replied, "Don't worry, I'm putting this on hold! Once the project is over, you can all make as much money as you want!"
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere in the office became very harmonious.
Only Gu Jingchen looked tense and said nothing.
Lu Ziting and An An... aren't they together?
