Chapter 54 Chapter 54 He wanted to confess and fall in love with Ye Jin...
This business trip took me to several cities and I changed many hotels.
But every hotel has a very rich breakfast.
Ye Jin was the last one to appear and take a seat. He said good morning to Gu Chenxi and Li Yong, put his phone on the table and started eating.
Her phone was facing upwards, the screen was black, and she couldn't tell what the wallpaper was.
Gu Chenxi pretended to be indifferent, took a sip of coffee and waited quietly.
About three minutes later, the phone rang.
She unlocked her phone and checked it.
Mobile phone wallpapers also appeared.
Although part of it is blocked by the APP, the familiar outline can still be seen.
Gu Chenxi: …………
Didn’t you promise him yesterday that you wouldn’t let him go?
Ye Jin opened the message that just popped up. It was a good morning email that Gu Chenxi sent on time.
Sure enough, he didn't believe that she would compromise so easily.
Ye Jin replied to Yan Rong's email as usual, but deliberately left the screen on, leaving it right under Gu Chenxi's nose.
Then, under the pretext of drinking coffee, he looked over there and found that Gu Chenxi had closed his eyes and did not seem to want to face him.
The screen-off time of Ye Jin’s phone has arrived and the screen automatically dims.
Gu Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief and slowly looked over here.
"Mr. Gu." Ye Jin took the initiative to say, "Let's discuss today's schedule."
She unlocked her phone and checked the time.
The photo resurfaced.
Gu Chenxi: ...
Ye Jin briefly explained today's process: first visit the government for communication, then go to the site for inspection at ten o'clock, and have lunch in the hotel's business hall.
He also needs to deal with some heavy workload and two video conferences in the afternoon.
During this time, Ye Jin kept checking the time on his mobile phone.
That photo kept flashing before Gu Chenxi's eyes.
...I can feel that Assistant Ye really likes it.
As the number of times increased, Gu Chenxi gradually became numb and allowed the photo to flicker in and out of his sight, without changing his expression, as if the person in the photo was not him.
This person's adaptability is really strong.
Ye Jin didn't get the response he wanted, so he sighed in his heart and gave up on making trouble.
On the way to the city government, Ye Jin turned on the news and took a look.
"Boss Gu." She was suddenly stunned and said, "Liu Xinmin jumped off the building."
Ye Jin added: "But the attempt to jump off the building failed and he was rescued by firefighters."
Gu Chenxi gave him a puzzled look.
"Liu Xinmin, that's Mr. Liu who had dinner with us that night." Ye Jin was a little absent-minded. "He was fine the last time we saw him, wasn't he? How could he suddenly become so upset?"
There was a hint of comfort in Gu Chenxi's eyes.
Many people only see the superficial glory of entrepreneurs, but in fact they are walking on thin ice. If they relax and make wrong decisions, the losses will snowball.
Assistant Ye had not failed to think of this.
It's just that she was too kind and too naive, thinking that those cruel things would never happen to her.
Ye Jin dialed the number directly.
"Hello, who are you calling?" A gentle female voice answered the phone.
Ye Jin: "Is Mr. Liu here?"
"Xinmin, looking for you." The voice was getting farther and farther away, and then Liu Xinmin's flattering tone appeared, "Hello, Assistant Ye? Why did you think of calling me?"
Ye Jin felt relieved and said, "I saw on the news that you jumped off a building."
"No, that's not the case." Liu Xinmin explained, "I was just sitting by the window, smoking a cigarette and looking at the scenery, and suddenly a firefighter came down from the sky and kicked me, almost breaking my ribs."
Ye Jin smiled silently: "I'm glad you're okay."
Liu Xinmin asked carefully, "What does Mr. Gu think about our joint investment?"
Ye Jin: "I asked my colleagues in the project department to help me join the team. I believe there will be results soon."
As for whether the result is good or bad, she has no control over it.
"Okay, okay, that's good." Liu Xinmin seemed to be relieved. "Then I'll wait for your news, Assistant Ye."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Jin still felt a little heavy.
After she digested it alone for a while, she arrived at her destination.
Ye Jin subconsciously unfastened her seat belt, but inexplicably felt something warm.
Looking down, I found it was Gu Chenxi's hand.
He stopped her from unbuckling her seat belt and leaned over to take away the documents she had with her.
Ye Jin was puzzled: "Boss Gu?"
"Yeah." Gu Chenxi said in a low voice, "You take a rest."
Ye Jin explained for herself: "I won't affect my work, Mr. Gu, don't worry."
Gu Chenxi: “I know.”
Assistant Ye has a stable and strong soul, but that doesn't mean she is indestructible.
Everyone has moments of weakness, including Assistant Ye.
Gu Chenxi got out of the car alone, holding the documents in one hand, and waved gently through the glass.
But the dark black business car did not start yet.
Li Yong was shocked and dazed in the driving seat. He lowered his head and counted on his fingers: three sentences in total, and there were seven words in total.
Incredible, really incredible.
-
Liu Xinmin still died.
A month later, he jumped off a building at an unfinished construction site.
This place is sparsely populated, there are no enthusiastic people to call the police, and no firefighters to descend from the sky.
He jumped from the 20th floor alone and turned into a pool of blood.
Ye Jin, dressed in black, attended Liu Xinmin's funeral.
The woman who had answered Ye Jin's call was Liu Xinmin's wife. Her face was full of tears, as if she would faint from excessive grief at any time.
Ye Jin whispered, "I'm sorry."
"It has nothing to do with you, Assistant Ye," Liu Xinmin's wife said. "This is his fate."
Liu Xinmin was born as a contractor and had saved a small amount of money. During the period when domestic housing prices soared, he spent all his savings to follow the trend. After several rounds of transfers, he became gradually wealthy and opened his own real estate company, undertaking the construction of buildings.
The real estate bubble burst and all the money was trapped.
Without cash flow, the collapse is unstoppable.
Liu Xinmin is a small real estate developer who was not even qualified to attend the summit.
He didn't know how he knew Gu Chenxi's name, so he made a special trip to wait for him, treating this as his last straw.
But in the end, the project department evaluated that the return on this investment was not high, so they abandoned Liu Xinmin's project.
Before she knew it, Ye Jin's eyes were blurred with tears.
She subconsciously took a deep breath to relieve the feeling of suffocation.
Before Liu Xinmin died, he sold all his assets to pay off his debts and the wages of the workers he had signed contracts with, and then jumped off a tall building without any worries.
Ye Jin took a deep breath again, woke up, and found herself lying on the bed in the hotel.
It is now one o'clock in the afternoon on May 14th.
In her dream, Liu Xinmin's death date was June 15th, one month later.
Why did she dream about something that would happen a month later?
And that dream was so real, as if it had really happened.
There was a gentle knock on Ye Jin's door.
But Ye Jin was immersed in his own thoughts and didn't hear it.
The door handle was gently pressed.
Gu Chenxi pushed the door open and saw Ye Jin who had just woken up from a dream.
"Boss Gu?" Ye Jin sat on the bed with her knees bent, and confided with a somewhat lonely look, "Liu Xinmin will still jump off the building. Just one month later, I had a dream about it."
Won't.
Gu Chenxi answered silently in his heart.
He handed her the documents in his hand.
"What is this?" Ye Jin took it and found that it was a letter of intent to invest.
The investor is Haohan, and the investee is Liaoyuan Real Estate, Liu Xinmin’s company.
Ye Jin suddenly raised her head: "But isn't the return on investment very low?"
She believed in her dream.
Gu Chenxi nodded slightly.
The rate of return was indeed very low and it was not worth the hassle this time, so it was thrown into the trash by the project department.
But it was soon picked up again.
It was specially approved by him.
There's nothing I can do. My girlfriend is too soft-hearted.
As a boyfriend, he should be more tolerant and try to make his girlfriend happy.
Gu Chenxi smiled slightly, and his usually sharp eyes now hid deep affection.
"Boss Gu, you are such a good person." Ye Jin said affectionately, "I was wrong about you before."
She decided to curse the capitalists less in the future.
Gu Chenxi: ...
I almost forgot that Assistant Ye doesn’t know he is her boyfriend yet.
Judging from Assistant Ye's enthusiasm for him, if she knew he was her boyfriend, she would immediately rush over and give him a hug.
Maybe she'll even reward him with a sweet kiss.
But now I can only give him the good guy card.
The hole in his heart grew larger, and a huge feeling of dissatisfaction washed over him.
Desperately needing to be filled with something.
Before, he didn’t know what to fill it with, so he could only ignore it.
But now he knows.
He wants Assistant Ye.
Gu Chenxi's eyes slowly darkened.
-
【Ahhhhh, it’s over. 】
The system saw this scene from afar, and shouted anxiously in Bian Mu's mind, and said anxiously, "Gu Chenxi is definitely not holding back anything good."
It inexplicably felt as if it was watching its own cabbages being eaten by pigs.
Ye Jin is so dedicated and serious.
Apart from having a bit of a bad taste, liking to spread rumors, get money for advertising, and always teasing it, she has been working diligently to handle the conflicting plots and strive to complete the task and return home as soon as possible.
But now all of this has been ruined by the damn male protagonist.
He fell in love with Ye Jin and even changed other people's life and death for Ye Jin.
Based on the system's understanding of the male protagonist, this guy definitely doesn't want to hide now. He wants to confess and wants to fall in love with Ye Jin.
Good job.
This is too much.
The system didn't care that Gu Chenxi was still there, and asked Bian Mu to make a video call to Ye Jin.
"Hello."
Ye Jin felt more relaxed, and her voice became softer, "Baby Bian Mu, do you miss me again?"
"Woof!" the Border Collie barked.
Ye Jin noticed the pattern behind it.
It's a crooked g.
It is still made up of snacks, but compared with the last time, the pattern this time is much smaller, which is obviously the result of Border Collie’s painful decision.
Ye Jin couldn't help laughing, "What does it mean this time? Go? You want to go out and play with me?"
Gu! It’s Gu Chenxi’s Gu!
Be careful Gu Chenxi, you idiot! !
Ye Jin was immersed in the fantasy of two grown-up kids acting cute from a distance and didn't think in that direction at all.
She even turned her phone to share with Gu Chenxi: "Look, my dog is so smart."
Very smart.
Too smart.
A basic sense of vigilance flashed across his mind, and Gu Chenxi nodded gently, lowering his eyes and looking at her gently.
As long as my girlfriend likes it.
During the video call, the Border Collie's tail was shaking like a propeller, and it was whining and complaining to Ye Jin.
That creature is making a scene in its head right now. Can you please calm the dog down? Can you please stop it from stealing its snacks?
Border Collie is slightly abnormal.
Ye Jin's eyebrows suddenly jumped.
I sensed something was wrong.
Given the system's cautious nature, it should have specifically chosen her free time to let Border Collie call.
Why did the call suddenly come at this time?
