Chapter 171 Rebellion or Coup?



Faced with his grandfather's series of questions, Xu Xiu was a little confused. It seemed that what he said was correct, but he still felt that something was wrong.

"Grandpa, thank you for the compliment, but that can't be a reason for me to do chores, can it?"

Xu Zhiyuan simply smiled and replied, "The capable should do more!"

Upon hearing his grandfather's words, Xu Xiu almost choked on his own breath and immediately turned to Hanhan for comfort.

Around two or three in the morning, the elders could no longer stay awake and went back to their rooms.

Fang Liao prepared many rooms, and Xu Zhiyuan and Bai Guanying stayed here, spending the first day of the Lunar New Year here.

Nothing has been prepared at home, and the two elders plan to stay until after the Lantern Festival before going back.

Fang Liao couldn't be happier, so that the two of them wouldn't be bored. They could play mahjong together and the four of them could go out for a stroll together.

Xiao Ruoyan went back first with her mother and grandfather. Xu Lin and Fang An were off gallivanting somewhere. Wang Wenxin stayed here tonight.

Xu Xiu naturally has a room too. His grandfather's villa has a total of six rooms, and he had already considered these issues when he bought the house.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, only Xu Xiu's family was present; the other relatives were all at their own homes.

Xu Xiu also rushed to Hanhan's house early in the morning, where the grandfather was the real "real grandfather".

During the first month of the lunar calendar, Xu Xiu spent all his time at his mother-in-law's house except when he went home to sleep.

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was a live-in son-in-law.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Xu Xiu was summoned to the company by Bai Yushu. Because they were so busy, many employees had already started work on the sixth or seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

I have meetings in the morning, afternoon, and evening. There are many things to handle at the beginning of the year.

Bai Yushu knew that Xu Xiu and others would find various excuses not to come to the company after school started, so he took the initiative to finalize all the decisions that needed his attention before the start of the semester.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Xu Xiu was busy until the afternoon when he prepared to return to Shi County. Before leaving, he asked Bai Yushu about the secretary in his office.

Bai Yushu was completely bewildered. "What secretary, boss?"

"Didn't I ask Gu Xin to tell you? When I called you on New Year's Eve, Gu Xin answered and said you were drunk."

Xu Xiu said very seriously.

Bai Yushu took out his phone and glanced at the company's recruitment section. He saw a pinned post, clicked on it, and...

"Boss, are you really hiring a secretary?"

"yes!"

"I am absolutely certain."

Seeing his boss's serious expression, Bai Yushu handed him his phone and told him to look at it himself.

Xu Xiu took the phone and looked at the job posting; he felt like he should just find a hole and hide inside.

He immediately took out his phone and dialed Gu Xin's number, saying, "Gu Xin, come to my office."

"Okay, boss."

Gu Xin arrived at Xu Xiu's office shortly afterward.

Xu Xiu handed over the phone directly, "Gu Xin, I need an explanation for this."

"Boss, didn't you say that yourself?"

Gu Xin said with an innocent look on her face.

When did I ever say such a thing?

Xu Xiu thought to himself, annoyed, "I was just joking, why did you actually send it out?"

Gu Xin looked confident as she turned on the recording on Bai Yushu's phone and turned the volume up to the maximum.

[What special requirements does the boss have for his secretary?]

No, I'm very easy to talk to. My requirements aren't high. I just need someone around 1.65 meters tall, weighing under 110 pounds, with measurements... and looks... etc.

"Uh, I was probably drunk at the time."

Xu Xiu had no choice but to stubbornly deny it, regardless of whether they believed him or not.

Seeing her boss's embarrassed expression, Gu Xin didn't dare to laugh out loud, but could only secretly gloat in her heart.

Bai Yushu also had an expression that said he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.

"Take down that Gu Xin announcement as soon as possible. Take advantage of the fact that no one will be looking at it during the New Year and help me modify the content."

Xu Xiu said in a very serious tone.

"The boss is running out of time; over a hundred people have already signed up."

"I've done a preliminary screening, and there are ten left. I was just about to show you their information."

"It seems like one of them is one of your classmates?"

Xu Xiu was startled by Gu Xin's words. What was going on?

After Gu Xin finished speaking, she ran back to her office to get the documents. Bai Yushu quickly poured Xu Xiu a cup of Da Hong Pao tea to calm him down.

After taking only a sip of tea, Gu Xin rushed over.

Xu Xiu took the information and could tell from the photos that every single one of them was a beautiful woman...

The resumes all had measurements, and as I flipped through them, I came across Liu Qianxue's information.

She also filled in her measurements, and most importantly, she wrote in the remarks column that she and he had grown up together since childhood.

Having an absolute understanding of him is a huge advantage.

After reviewing the information on the ten people, Xu Xiu placed the information on the table and fell into deep thought.

After a moment of silence, she slowly asked, "Gu Xin, which one have you taken a fancy to?"

Gu Xin had already shortlisted three candidates in her mind, and then selected them from their resumes, including Liu Qianxue.

Xu Xiu immediately rejected Liu Qianxue.

Gu Xin asked in confusion, "Boss, this is the one I like the most, why did you pass it off so easily?"

"I've liked this person for almost six years. Do you think it's suitable for you to be my secretary?"

Upon hearing such bombshell news, Gu Xin and Bai Yushu sat down immediately, their meaning clear: "Boss, tell us about it."

"You guys want to hear some gossip?"

Why should I say it and let you laugh at me?

The boss had a completely unfazed attitude.

Gu Xin said directly, "Boss, if you hadn't said anything, I would have just hired her."

"Hey, Gu Xin, don't get me wrong, I'm the boss. Are you threatening me?"

Xu Xiu pretended to be angry.

"Boss, if you don't tell us, Bai Yushu and I will quit. Anyway, you're the boss, and there's nothing we can do if you don't tell us."

Xu Xiu thought to himself, feeling frustrated.

"Are these two planning a rebellion or a coup?"

Seeing that the boss didn't speak, Bai Yushu also spoke up: "Old Xu, come on, tell me about it, satisfy our curiosity."

Seeing the eager looks in their eyes, Xu Xiu had no choice but to nod in agreement.

The three of them talked for more than half an hour in Xu Xiu's office.

After listening, Gu Xin made up her mind and said to Xu Xiu, "Boss, since she looked down on you before, I'm going to make sure she stays by your side and shows her what I'm capable of."

"Let her understand exactly what kind of amazing male god she gave up."

"Gu Xin, don't cause trouble. She's already regretting it. Last time she even said she wanted to be my lover... cough cough."

"Love, what? A lover?"

"Boss, this kind of woman is too dangerous. She must stay by your side to prevent her from harming others."

Xu Xiu was a little confused by Gu Xin's words. What was Gu Xin thinking? Was she helping him or harming him?

As expected, Xu Xiu was completely defeated in a two-on-one situation. However, Gu Xin also considered that Liu Qianxue was still studying, so they couldn't really rely on her for everything.

So she chose another one from the three lists. For such a big boss, having two secretaries isn't excessive, is it?

Xu Xiu simply gave up and let them do whatever they wanted. He figured he could just find an excuse to fire him later.
