Chapter 313 I Must Stay (1/2)



Gu Jingchen looked over.

Tang Ze subconsciously paused for two seconds, then gritted his teeth and continued, "I think Assistant Xia is a very good person. Besides her excellent work ability, she's also very easygoing. Besides her work relationship, she's also someone you can trust to make friends with. As for who she resembles... I don't think so. Maybe it's because she has a gentle personality..."

Although Tang Ze has been with Gu Jingchen for many years, he doesn't know much about Su An because of their previous bad relationship.

Even if they met by chance, it was mostly to pass on messages for Gu Jingchen.

Gu Jingchen frowned and said nothing.

Tang Ze didn't feel anything unusual. Could it be... was he really overthinking it?

Gu Jingchen fell into deep thought again.

After a long while, he waved his hand and said, "This is none of your business. Go and get busy."

"yes."

Tang Ze left immediately and walked out of the office, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he saw that it was almost lunch time, so he helped Gu Jingchen pack lunch first, and then went to the staff cafeteria himself.

Then he picked some food at random, turned around and saw Su An also holding a tray and sitting down not far away.

Tang Ze hurried over.

"Assistant Xia."

He sat down opposite Su An.

Su An paused with his chopsticks. It looked like he was the one. He smiled and nodded hurriedly, "Assistant Tang, how come you have time to come to the cafeteria for dinner today?"

Tang Ze always stayed with Gu Jingchen or took his lunch to his office to eat. He was rarely seen here.

"Just happened to see you here."

Tang Ze said something.

Then, the two of them chatted casually about a work that Su An was working on.

As they chatted, Tang Ze suddenly changed the subject, "Hey...shouldn't I be talking to you about this while we're having dinner? After all, this is a rare time to relax, and you're usually very busy at work..."

"It's okay."

Su An shook his head. "Just think of it as learning. I'm already slowly accumulating experience. Assistant Tang said this for my own good."

"Mr. Gu was right about you."

Upon hearing this, Tang Ze immediately praised Su An.

Su An was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly couldn't help feeling curious.

Gu Jingchen...should have told Tang Ze his opinion of her in private?

Thinking about it, she lowered her voice and asked quietly, "Assistant Tang, is Ms. Gu... satisfied with my work recently? Has she said anything to you about me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Su An saw Tang Ze laughing.

"I thought you didn't care. You only thought of asking this after you've already been hired."

Tang Ze gave her a reassuring look before continuing, "Don't worry about anything. Mr. Gu really recognizes your work ability and often praises you. I even think that Mr. Gu's temper becomes better when he talks to you. When I first came to Mr. Gu's side, I was terrified every day, afraid that I would lose my work if I wasn't careful."

"Yeah……"

Su didn't expect that Gu Jingchen would have such a high opinion of her, and she felt a little relieved.

Then he hurriedly said modestly, "Assistant Tang is also very good. Maybe it's because I'm a woman that Mr. Gu is more gentlemanly when talking to me."

Tang Ze smiled slightly and was about to retort that Gu Jingchen was not the kind of person who would treat people differently based on gender.

But the words stopped at his lips, as if he felt something was strange.

Yes, Mr. Gu has never been the kind of person who treats people differently based on gender.

But during this period of time...

He could indeed be described as "kind and amiable" to Xia Xiaomo.

Moreover, he asked such a strange question just now in the office.

Xia Xiaomo...does she look like anyone?

Tang Ze blinked his eyes, feeling as if something was passing through his mind, but before he could catch it, his cell phone rang!

"I'm going to answer a phone call."

He hurriedly stood up and walked away with his cell phone.

Then, in less than half a minute, he came rushing over with an anxious look on his face.

"Sorry, Assistant Xia, my wife isn't feeling well, so I might have to ask Mr. Gu for half a day off. If there's anything I can do, please contact me directly."

As he said this, he left in a hurry.

Su An looked at her back and couldn't help but worry about his wife, but also couldn't help feeling envious.

How wonderful...

This is what a loving couple should be like.

It's a pity that she will never have this kind of happiness in her life.

Su An looked away, finished his lunch alone, and returned to the office.

Unexpectedly, Tang Ze didn't show up until the next day.

She was also taken to Gu Jingchen's office early in the morning.

"Mr. Gu, you're looking for me."

Su An stood in front of the desk, waiting for Gu Jingchen to issue the "task."

Then I heard——

With a "pop" sound.

A folder was thrown in front of her.

Gu Jingchen's intimidating voice also rang in his ears.

"Xia Xiaomo, you should already know about Tang Ze's situation. The reason I hired an extra assistant was because his wife was pregnant. To ease his burden and allow him to spend more time with his family, his wife was unwell yesterday, so I granted him a few days off. So, you will take his place in the bidding this afternoon. Here are the documents, take them and familiarize yourself with them as soon as possible."

Gu Jingchen's tone left no room for doubt.

Su An did not refuse, and picked up the document, flipped through two pages, and then readily agreed, "Mr. Gu, I will go and familiarize myself with it right away."

After saying that, she turned around and left the office in a hurry.

She had heard a little about today's bidding.

But Tang Ze had been in charge of this matter all along, and she was still a little unsure when she suddenly took over.

But... this is also a test for her from Gu Jingchen!

As long as the problem is solved, her position here will be more secure!

Su An opened the document and read it more carefully.

But when he saw the column for bidding competitors, his pupils suddenly shrank!

"Lu family?"

She murmured in disbelief, many familiar faces flashing through her mind.

This Lu family...is it the same Lu family she imagined?

Su An was not sure, so he quickly turned on the computer and searched quickly.

Then he looked at the search results, his eyes becoming empty little by little.

It really is... my senior’s company.

Then... wouldn't it be possible that she would meet Lu Bo this afternoon?

Su An's forehead suddenly jumped and he felt a sharp pain.

Lu Ziting, along with everyone in the Lu family, is a scar in her heart.

Just thinking about it would overwhelm her with self-blame.

Not to mention meeting each other.

But……

Now, she had to go.

For the sake of her child, she must go through fire and water!

The morning passed in a flash.

Soon, it was afternoon.

Bidding will begin at 3 p.m.

At exactly two o'clock, Su An accompanied Gu Jingchen out of the company.

Although she had made sufficient preparations, she felt uneasy whenever she thought that someone from the Lu family would be there.

Wait until you get off.

Gu Jingchen may have noticed her nervousness, and suddenly stopped before entering the door.

A large group of people behind him also stopped.
