Su An's heart was filled with excitement. When he thought that he could use the opportunity of work to get in touch with Zhu Zhile again, he became more serious.
Gu Jingchen stood there, watching the sunlight coming through the window and shining on Su An's desk, his heart felt a peace he had never felt before.
There are too many things belonging to An An in this office.
Her favorite pillow.
She loves to read books.
There was also a cup and pen that she personally selected and gave to him.
Now, she is finally sitting here...
Although it was with a face that he was completely unfamiliar with.
But he knew that behind that mask was An An, the person he loved the most, and the one he felt the most sorry for.
Gu Jingchen stared at Su An for a while, then returned to his seat and began to deal with today's work.
Perhaps because there is a loved one in the office, the usually boring work does not seem as irritating as usual.
Gu Jingchen was extremely efficient and finished part of the afternoon's work in just one morning.
Then……
He poured himself a cup of coffee, and while reading the document, he glanced at Su An not far away from him from time to time, feeling both good and anxious.
The good thing is that he finally discovered that the person he had been thinking about day and night finally came back to him.
Anxiety is...
He didn't know what to do next.
I haven't even thought about tonight.
I already had dinner last night, so I can't suddenly make such a request tonight...
But other than that, he didn't seem to have any reasonable reason to invite An An.
Keep her in class?
No, he couldn't bear to do that.
But...what other methods are there?
Besides, this excuse may be used once or twice, but he can't use it every time.
What if An An thinks he has ulterior motives and gets scared away?
Or maybe An An came back to... get back together with him?
A thought flashed through Gu Jingchen's mind quickly.
And quickly denied it.
impossible.
If they get back together, An An will not hide her identity.
Even if it was for an assessment at the beginning, she should have discovered that this office was full of her things and his feelings for her, so there was no need to hide it any longer.
But she desperately wanted to stay by his side and manage this situation professionally and perfectly.
The only time she showed her emotional fluctuations was the night before yesterday, when she got drunk because of a job transfer.
Is it... for him?
Or is it because you can no longer stay with him?
She doesn't want to reveal her identity, but she wants to stay. What is her secret?
The more Gu Jingchen thought about it, the more complicated it became.
Before I knew it, the entire afternoon had passed!
The sky outside the window gradually darkened.
Seeing the shadow on the table suddenly covered by a ray of light, Gu Jingchen was shocked to realize that so much time had passed.
Su Anyi on the side started to pack up.
As long as she doesn't need to work and Gu Jingchen doesn't have any social engagements, she can usually get off work on time.
"Boss Gu, is there any work that I need to complete today?"
Su An had almost finished tidying up and asked a question.
Gu Jingchen shook his head: "No, it's just..."
He paused halfway through his words, not knowing how to continue.
What is 䥍?
My stomach is upset, do you want to eat with me?
This reason was somewhat untenable. Gu Jingchen struggled with it for a long time but still couldn't put it into words.
Just then——
“Buzz!”
His cell phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
Gu Jingchen lowered his eyes and glanced at him, his expression immediately becoming a little subtle.
It was a call from home.
He picked up the phone, hesitated for two seconds, and finally answered it.
As soon as the call was connected, I heard—
"Master, are you free to go home today? My wife isn't feeling well..."
The butler's tone was tentative and sounded cautious.
Gu Jingchen sighed helplessly after hearing this, and still asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
"It's just... Lao Xiao is sick..."
Housekeeper Lin's words were very general, and he added, "Madam has had a headache since the night before yesterday. She hasn't eaten much or slept well in the past two days. We wanted to call you a long time ago, but Madam stopped us. I really couldn't bear it..."
"I know."
Gu Jingchen had guessed what Butler Lin wanted to say and interrupted him in a deep voice: "I'll be back soon."
"Okay, okay, I'll go tell Madam right away! Madam will definitely be fine once you get back!"
Gu Jingchen hung up the phone.
Then he saw Su An still standing beside him out of the corner of his eye.
But now, he no longer has to worry about how to ask her out for dinner.
"It's nothing, you can go home now."
Gu Jingchen let Su An go.
"Okay, then you..."
Seeing that Gu Jingchen had no intention of leaving, Su An asked another question.
Being touched by her, a smile flashed in Gu Jingchen's eyes: "I have some personal matters, I will contact you if there is anything."
"Okay, I'll go home first."
Su An didn't ask any more questions and turned to leave.
Gu Jingchen listened to her footsteps getting farther away, then stood up from his chair. Before leaving, he couldn't help but glance in the direction of her seat. When he thought that they would be able to work together every day in the future, his mood immediately became better.
An hour later, the Gu family——
Qiu Shuya sat upright on the sofa in the living room, with an indifferent look on her face, but her eyes would glance out the window from time to time.
Seeing this, Steward Lin hurriedly comforted her: "Madam, the young master said he would be back today, and he will definitely be back. Maybe he had some urgent work to do, so he was delayed..."
As he was speaking, the sound of a car stopping suddenly came from outside the window!
Steward Lin's eyes suddenly lit up: "I heard the car horn! It must be the young master coming back, I'll go out to pick him up!"
Before he finished speaking, someone ran to the door.
Qiu Shuya's face remained expressionless. She just picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Then he glanced at the envelope on the table and felt a headache again.
Gu Jingchen, this brat!
Ever since Su An passed away, he has been like a stone that is unmoved by anything!
As soon as the topic of going on a blind date is brought up, the two of them would start arguing after just a few words!
It’s even better now. He uses being busy at work as an excuse and hasn’t even been back home recently!
If she hadn't been ill, it would have been difficult for her to see him in this life!
When Qiu Shuya thought of this, she couldn't help getting angry again, but she still forced herself to suppress it.
At the door, Butler Lin had already welcomed Gu Jingchen in.
"Master, when the mistress heard you were coming back, she prepared the living room to wait for you!"
"Um."
Gu Jingchen responded, walked to Qiu Shuya without changing his expression and sat down.
"Mom, I'm back."
