Chapter 4 Reencounter with Gu Yuheng
After a busy morning, I finally got the breakfast ready to deliver by seven o'clock.
Su Niannian has been busy since she got up, let alone had time to eat breakfast. Afraid of delaying the delivery time, she could only carry the insulated box to the foot pedal of her electric car while hungry.
"Sis, why haven't you cleaned my basketball shoes yet? What am I going to wear for the game tomorrow?"
Su Zhe had just gotten up, hadn't washed his face or brushed his teeth, and came out in slippers with messy hair to give orders.
When Li Xiumei saw her son come out, she quickly took a steamed bun from the steamer and stuffed it into his hand.
"Xiao Zhe, I'll clean it for you when your sister gets back from delivering the goods. It won't interfere with your competition tomorrow. These are freshly steamed buns, so eat them quickly. Mom has been keeping them warm for you."
"good."
Su Zhe said something casually, walked to his seat, and began to eat the breakfast that Li Xiumei had laid out for him.
"Niannian, you should hurry up and set off too, so that our guests don't go hungry."
Li Xiumei looked at Su Niannian and said.
The aroma of food filled Su Niannian's nose, so enticing that her stomach twitched and she felt a surge of acid as hunger assaulted her senses.
She was relieved to find that she had a small bread roll in her pocket, which would temporarily ease her stomach discomfort.
She saw Su Guowei reinforcing the rope on the foot pedal, so she quickly took out a piece of bread from her pocket, tore open the packaging, and ate it in a couple of bites. Otherwise, if her mother saw her, she would nag her for dawdling again.
Su Guowei glanced at the bread crumbs on Su Niannian's lips, said nothing, and went back to the shop to get her a bottle of water.
"Ride slowly."
Su Niannian took the water, agreed, hopped on her electric scooter, and set off.
She wore a pink helmet and a loose T-shirt. The morning breeze ruffled the stray hairs on her cheeks. Although she was carrying two large insulated boxes, she was very experienced in delivery and rode steadily and safely.
They soon arrived at the Gu Group.
Su Niannian looked up at the towering office building in front of her and the white-collar workers in smart clothes walking into the building. A hint of envy appeared in the depths of her eyes.
She had long heard that Gu's company offered high salaries and top-notch employee benefits nationwide.
It would be great if she could get a job at Gu's company after graduating from university.
That way, she could save money on her own to rent a small house, move out with her grandmother, and no longer have to worry about her mother's opinions. Her grandmother could also enjoy her old age in peace.
Thinking of this, Su Niannian felt full of energy.
"Hey, what are you doing standing there? Are you an employee of Gu's Group?"
Holding an incubator, Su Niannian walked into the hall and was dumbfounded by the intricate layout.
As expected of the renowned Gu family in the business world, even the lobby is so luxurious. Just as I was about to look for the elevator, I heard someone calling out behind me.
She turned around uncertainly, looking at the approaching security guard with a puzzled expression.
Are you talking about me?
"If it's not you, then who is it? Is there anyone else here?"
Su Niannian looked at the staff moving around in the lobby and was somewhat speechless, but she still spoke very politely.
"Security guard, I'm here to deliver food."
The security guard sized Su Niannian up and down. Seeing her youthful face and the impression that she was easy to bully, he said imperiously, "Do you have a work ID?"
"No."
The security guard waved his hand dismissively, speaking in an official tone: "No, you can't go in."
"Brother, why don't you call the order department to verify?"
"Do I look that free? I only recognize work IDs."
Su Niannian thought to herself that she had come to deliver food temporarily and was not an employee here. Where was she going to get a work permit? Wasn't this making things difficult for her?
While she was in a tense standoff with the security guard.
A tall, slender figure suddenly stopped in his tracks in front of the president's private elevator not far away.
"President Gu?"
Following behind was Gao Xiu, who was reporting on his work. As he looked up from his documents, he saw Gu Yuheng's gaze fall on the girl at the entrance.
The girl was carrying a large suitcase and may have encountered a security guard who stopped her.
But that's not important. What's important is that their CEO, Mr. Gu, has never been close to any woman in his twenty-nine years. He even sneers at any woman who gets close to him. He has been by Mr. Gu's side for so many years and has never seen Mr. Gu's gaze linger on any woman for more than ten seconds.
Mr. Gu is actually looking at a little girl, and she doesn't look very old.
Just as Gao Xiu was internally ranting, Gu Yuheng spoke in a deep voice.
"Gao Xiu, tell that security guard not to make things difficult for that girl."
Gao Xiu paused for a moment, then glanced carefully at Gu Yuheng's slightly pursed lips before confirming that the voice just now had come from President Gu.
"Yes, Mr. Gu."
He seriously suspected that President Gu had taken the wrong medicine this morning...
Just as Su Niannian was wondering what to do, the security guard saw Gao Xiu walking in their direction and immediately changed his attitude, bowing and scraping as he spoke.
"Secretary Gao, I'll get rid of her right away. It won't affect President Gu's work."
Gao Xiu glanced at him lightly: "Go to the finance department later to settle this month's salary. You don't need to come in tomorrow."
As Gao Xiu finished speaking, Su Niannian and the security guard couldn't help but show expressions of surprise.
Now the security guard was sweating profusely with anxiety.
"No, Secretary Gao, what's going on? Did I do something wrong?"
Early in the morning, he made things difficult for a girl who came to deliver food.
Actually, it didn't do anything!
Aside from the cleaning lady, he was in the lowest position and had no authority over the regular employees.
Can't we do something about unlicensed food delivery services?
Gao Xiu: "Gu's employee principle is that all employees must be familiar with the four words 'fairness and impartiality' on their first day of employment. It is not about using your power to make things difficult for others."
"Alright, if you want compensation, then leave now."
Knowing he had no way to get around the situation, the security guard could only leave dejectedly.
Su Niannian quickly thanked Gao Xiu for helping her out of the predicament, saying, "Thank you."
Gao Xiu smiled and shook his head: "No need to thank me, Miss, you can go in now."
After saying that, he left.
Su Niannian watched Gao Xiu's retreating figure, opened her mouth as if to ask him where the elevator was, but he walked away so quickly.
She had just swallowed her words when she felt a tall shadow loom over her head.
A crisp black suit, the familiar scent of pine, I looked up to see.
Then, Su Niannian's pupils contracted, her eyes filled with panic and surprise.
He stood frozen in place, completely still, as if petrified.
Gu Yuheng watched as the girl's thin arms held the box. Her slender body was hidden under her white T-shirt, making the T-shirt look unusually large. Even though he was confused and infatuated that night, he could still tell that she was very thin.
At that moment, his heart suddenly tightened.
An inexplicable mix of emotions led him to break his principles and meddle in other people's business.
Seeing Su Niannian staring at him without speaking, Gu Yuheng broke the silence first.
"It's been half a month since we last met. You're not going to pretend you don't recognize me, are you?"
