Seeing Su Tiantian hang up the phone, Liu Jingze's eyes were filled with tenderness and concern: "Tiantian, what's wrong? Are you having trouble at work?"
Su Tiantian said calmly, "No, it's just that the general manager and his wife arranged a job for me. I'll make a call first."
"Good morning, Assistant Li. I'm Su Tiantian."
"Mr. Lai and Mrs. Lai just called me."
"Okay, thank you for your help. I'm on my way back to Kuozhou City and will be at the company around nine o'clock."
"See you at the company later that night."
"What? You asked me what I was wearing today, whether I was wearing a skirt?" Su Tiantian's tone was a little surprised, and this sentence attracted everyone's attention.
"Oh, I see. Although I was wearing a skirt, it was only about calf length. Thanks for reminding me."
After Su Tiantian hung up the phone, Jiang Sihui asked curiously, "Mrs. Liu, does your company have any dress code requirements?"
Su Tiantian said, "I don't usually wear them. The general manager's assistant just reminded me not to wear skirts that are above the knee, saying that the company's guests don't like them."
Today, Su Tiantian wore a champagne-colored round-neck long-sleeved dress. The upper body was two-layered, the inner layer was made of shiny satin fabric, and the outer layer was made of lace with embroidered sequined flowers on the outside. The bottom was a large umbrella skirt, and the outer layer was a black short slim-fit suit jacket. The style was simple, generous and decent, without exposing her chest or back. Her face was clean and refreshing, and the overall look was simply elegant and dignified.
Liu Jingze: "A distinguished guest who requested not to wear short skirts? How special."
Su Tiantian corrected him: "It's not that I don't allow it, it's that I don't like it."
Su Tiantian's phone rang again: "Good morning, Brother Rong."
"You know, but you are always well-informed, so how could you not know?"
"Mr. Lai and Mrs. Lai arranged this, and even difficult matters need to be dealt with."
"What should I be afraid of? Even if I don't do well, the worst that can happen is that my salary and bonus will be deducted. In serious cases, I will be fired. But I still have my husband to support me." Su Tiantian's husband, who was sitting next to her and was a calm man on weekdays, showed a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
"I think I'll be there before nine. I was thinking of taking half a day off, but Assistant Li wanted to see me, so I better go to work. I haven't had perfect attendance this month anyway."
"See you at the company later."
After Su Tiantian hung up the phone, Liu Jingze said with a half-smile: "Are you willing to let me support you?"
Su Tiantian said a little arrogantly: "I just came to comfort Brother Rong, so I don't need you to support me."
Liu Zhaosheng said, "Don't you need my Jingze to support you? Aliang said you are independent and graceful, and it seems that's true."
Liu Jingze said, "Tiantian, are you hungry? Do you want breakfast? Sister Lan packed it in an insulated lunch box, and it's still hot."
Su Tiantian said, "Let's eat when we get back to the company. I hope there's no traffic jam."
Guo Qi'an's voice came faintly: "Hey, Mr. Liu, could you please take care of your two assistants? They haven't had breakfast yet."
Liu Jingze said slowly, "You asked for this. I didn't ask you to follow me to Kuozhou City. Didn't I say you were going to report on your work? Go ahead."
Guo Qian was choked and speechless.
Jiang Sihui quickly said, "Mr. Liu, the report and information have been sent to you. I have listed the areas that I think have questions or require your review."
Guo Qi'an said, "I'll send you mine later."
Liu Jingze said indifferently, "Why did you two insist on following me? You were nowhere to be seen during the New Year holiday. Ah An, you were driving my car a few days ago and hit a flower bed. Do you know how much the repair cost?"
Guo Qi'an said: "You can deduct it from my salary."
Liu Jingze said, "Is it a matter of salary deductions now? What do you two have to say? Hurry up and tell me. I hate people who procrastinate."
Jiang Sihui gritted her teeth and said, "I want to resign."
Guo Qi'an also said: "I want to resign too."
Liu Jingze remained calm: "Approved. When do you want to leave?"
Su Tiantian couldn't see Guo Qian's expression, but Guo Qian's voice was full of grievance: "Jingze, don't you ask the reason?"
Liu Jingze sighed: "Stop the car, I'll drive."
Guo Qianan stopped the car obediently.
Liu Jingze said, "Godfather, please sit with me in the front. Tiantian, you should sit here." Liu Jingze was the driver, Liu Zhaosheng sat in the passenger seat, Jiang Sihui sat in the middle of the back row, and Guo Qian sat behind Liu Jingze.
Liu Jingze said as he drove, "Tell me, what happened? Let's find a place when we get there and tell me slowly."
Guo Qi'an was silent for a moment and said, "The people on the bus are all people you trust, so I can trust them too. The old man's girlfriend is pregnant."
Liu Jingze said nonchalantly: "Uncle Guo is in really good health. He is going to be a father again in his fifties."
Guo Qi'an lowered his head, his shoulders shaking, as if he was sad. "He has never liked me. Now I am not his only son. How do you think he will treat me in the future?"
Liu Jingze placed his slender hands on the steering wheel, and said something that was a bit heartbreaking: "Haven't you long been accustomed to him not liking you, and you don't like him either? Haven't you been hurting each other all along? What are you afraid of?"
Guo Qi'an choked up and said, "The old man said that grandpa has other grandchildren and won't like me anymore. Auntie said that I have no share in the Guo family's property. Grandpa is sick, but they are still deliberately angering him. I know that they are only thinking about dividing the family property and don't really care about grandpa at all."
Liu Jingze took a deep breath and said, "Does my father know about this?"
Guo Qi'an was puzzled: "What does this have to do with Uncle Liu?"
The traffic light was red at that moment, so Liu Jingze stopped the car. He turned around, a look of helplessness and a hint of anger at the lack of resistance: "Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? What is this Guo family fortune? Half was originally given to your mother. Before she died, she designated you as the heir. There is a will, a notarized document, and it's legally binding. My father was one of the witnesses, and your grandfather was just managing it on your behalf. As for the other half, you are the eldest son and grandson, and your grandfather has always loved you. In your grandfather's heart, who holds a higher position, your father or you? What do you think?"
