Chapter 122: The Academic Superstar's Dark Moonlight (33)
"Of course not, I just accidentally kicked you. I was hoping you could come and build rapport with the employees, since they'll be working together in the future. Who knew they'd all leave the group chat as soon as you joined? How fierce are you usually?"
Wen Wan continued to change the subject, "They are all your employees. How can you manage a company if you don't know what your employees are thinking? Don't you think I'm right? I'm doing this for your own good."
Gu Sheng watched as Wen Wan made up stories, and as she continued, she seemed to gain more and more confidence, which was quite adorable.
"You're right, then I'll communicate with them properly in the future."
Wen Wan: So easy to coax.
"That's right. Then you keep busy. When you come back, bring me a cup of milk tea, half sugar, with two servings of tapioca pearls. Also, I want to eat cake, so bring me a piece too."
Wen Wan hung up the phone, patted her chest, and exclaimed, "That scared me to death!"
Then Wen Wan discovered that the people who had previously refused to join the group had all accepted her invitation, joined the group, and even consciously pulled Gu Sheng into it.
Wen Wan felt strange. When they were talking to her one by one just now, she acted like someone forcing a woman into prostitution. Why did she suddenly change her attitude?
Wei Cheng: 【May you have a long and prosperous life, sister-in-law.】 Then followed by a large red envelope. Wen Wan curiously clicked on it, 888, why is he sending her money?
Then, Xue Liao and the others followed Wei Cheng and sent her a red envelope.
Wen Wan didn't dare to order, and was thinking of returning what she had just ordered, when Xue Liao sent her a private message.
"Sister-in-law, hurry up and take the money. If you don't, I'm going to go mining."
Wen Yan: [? ? ? 】
[Mr. Gu, you understand? Sister-in-law, you saved my life. From now on, I'll follow your lead. If you say east, I'll never go west. And I'll even report on Mr. Gu's affairs at the company to you. You know, Mr. Gu is a heartthrob; many young women have their eyes on him.]
Xue Liao was going crazy. Gu Sheng had called them into the office and made them join a group one by one. It was terrifying. Although nothing else was said, they were almost scared to death.
So he quickly sent a red envelope to his sister-in-law to beg her.
After reading Xue Liao's message, Wen Wan immediately messaged Qin Yueyue privately: "Sister-in-law, help!!! My child's salary is already low. If President Gu kicks him out of the company, I have elderly parents and young children to support, and our whole family will be doomed."
Wen Wan: "???" Seeing the crying emoji sent by Qin Yueyue, Wen Wan immediately went to collect the red envelopes and clicked them one by one.
【I'm treating you all to dinner tonight, and your CEO Gu will be cooking himself.】 Wen Wan's message was immediately followed by silence. Everyone was silent. Eating CEO Gu's cooking? Are you sure he won't poison it? And is CEO Gu's cooking even edible? CEO Gu definitely wouldn't agree to something so outrageous, right?
Gu: [Okay, but there are dietary restrictions.]
The group: "!!!"
Qin Yueyue: [I have no dietary restrictions; I eat everything.]
Wei Cheng and the others didn't dare to make any demands. They just wanted to prepare some stomach medicine first, so even if the final dish turned out to be a culinary disaster and their intestines would be ruptured, they would still have to swallow it.
【I'll go buy groceries. Come to my place after you get off work. My address is ×××】
After sending the message, Wen Wan glanced at the time and then said to Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, Asheng is cooking dinner for his colleagues tonight, so you can leave work early."
Aunt Liu: "Are you sure you don't need my help?"
"No need, Aunt Liu, you should go home and rest early."
Then I chatted privately with a few people about their hobbies, made a list, packed up and went to the supermarket to buy the ingredients.
Wen Wan thought for a moment, then began to work.
The system exclaimed in surprise, "Host, what are you doing with that knife?"
Wen Wan: "Killing fish? I'm planning to cook some dishes too, can you check out some recipes for me?"
system:【! ! ! 】
Cooking?
Host, what are your cooking skills like? You should put down the knife. These people are just visiting, they have no grudge against you, why would you want to harm them?
[Host, you shouldn't make things difficult for yourself. Your original intention was to help Gu Sheng and her colleagues build a better relationship. If she ends up poisoning them and sending them to the hospital, then everything is over.]
Wen Yan: "???"
How does this system communicate?
[Did I fail in front of you before?] Wen Wan didn't actually remember what happened in the previous worlds. She only knew from the system that she had experienced them. If she had failed before, she looked at the knife in her hand and wisely put it down.
"Never mind, I'll go make them some tea instead."
The system breathed a sigh of relief; the host was quite sensible and obedient.
Wen Wan brewed a pot of tea, then bought some beer and put it in the refrigerator. After thinking for a while, she picked out a beautiful dress and dressed up nicely.
[Host, isn't this a bit too much?]
Is it really necessary to wear a formal dress just to have dinner?
You don't understand.
System: [...] It really doesn't understand.
At 6:30 pm, Gu Sheng returned, followed by a string of little followers. As soon as he entered the door, he spotted his sister-in-law and greeted her, then offered some compliments.
Gu Sheng looked at Wen Wan with some surprise.
Then a smile crept across her face. It seemed she really cared about inviting Wei Cheng and the others to dinner. Wen Wan pulled Gu Sheng along, "I've already bought the ingredients, you can go cook." Then she invited the others to sit down and went to get some tea, "Would you like some tea?"
The group said, "Thank you, sister-in-law. We love drinking tea the most."
Wei Cheng's face was practically wrinkled from smiling. He would never normally like drinking tea. Only his old-fashioned father liked it; it wasn't suitable for young people like them. But since it was brewed by his sister-in-law, he had to drink it even if it was urine.
Sui Houyu accepted it readily. He enjoys drinking tea and even recognized what kind of tea it was, praising it highly. However, Wen Wan just grabbed whatever she wanted. She doesn't know how to appreciate tea, and no matter what kind of tea it was, it wasn't as good as a cup of milk tea for her.
So he took a few more packets of tea and handed them directly to Sui Houyu, saying, "Since you like them, take some back with you."
Sui Houyu was somewhat surprised. One gram of tea costs several hundred yuan, and this whole pile must cost tens of thousands of yuan, right?
Moreover, it was quite obvious that the other party did not understand the value of the tea.
"One should not accept rewards without merit."
"Take it. My dad doesn't like it anyway; he prefers goji berry tea, it's good for his health." Wen Wan handed the tea leaves to Sui Houyu, noticing the others staring at her. "Do you want some tea leaves too?"
Several people waved their hands, "We don't need it."
Wen Wan went to get some beer and some snacks. "This meal won't be ready in a while, so have some snacks to tide you over."
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Seeing Wen Wan enter the kitchen, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Wei Cheng glanced around and asked, "Is your sister-in-law a rich heiress?"
Qin Fang said, "The Liu family is in the building materials business."
"You know him?"
"President Gu once introduced me to a project with the Liu family."
