Chapter 24: Holding an Umbrella for the Heroine
Outside Dingsheng Group.
Gu Xia used his index finger to press the leg of his sunglasses and lifted them from his nose to the top of his head.
She made herself look aggressive.
That’s right, a bad woman must be so domineering, otherwise how can she protect the heroine!
Gu Xia felt that she was not cool enough. If she could smile crookedly like the male protagonist, she would probably be more intimidating.
There's no way, she really doesn't want to pretend.
But this world is a huge Mary Sue literature!
"An Ran, you're here?"
"They're trying to figure out what to do with you."
An intern came over carrying a dozen cups of coffee. She had a sad look on her face and gave Ning Anran a wry smile.
She had an indescribable feeling towards Ning Anran. If Ning Anran was in the company, those old people would be thinking about how to get rid of Ning Anran, this tough guy who never gave up.
I won't cause them any trouble.
But once Ning Anran leaves her workstation, those people will order her around.
She admired Ning Anran and wanted to be Ning Anran, but she didn't have the courage.
"What do you want to do?"
"You're going to complain to your superiors in a panic?"
Gu Xia grabbed Ning Anran's wrist, as if protecting her child. Ning Anran let her hold him and moved slightly closer to Gu Xia.
"I don't know... An Ran, are you going to leave Dingsheng?"
"If you want to go, I'll go with you."
"Although Dingsheng is a good job with good salary and benefits, I really can't handle the interpersonal relationships here."
She was about to say something when her phone buzzed with several messages.
"I have to leave quickly. They are rushing me."
Ning Anran looked at her and reached out to take the coffee from her hand.
"Those people haven't transferred the money to you yet, right?"
The girl was stunned, then nodded with a look of grievance. These dozen cups of coffee weren't cheap at all; it was common for one cup to cost twenty or thirty, or even forty or fifty.
Therefore, she would spend hundreds of dollars every time she went out. Although those people were quick to get coffee and milk tea, the agreed transfer of money was delayed again and again.
It hasn't been sent for several days.
Force her to beg.
"I'll transfer the money to you, and you can consider these coffees as my purchases."
Gu Xia took out his mobile phone and was about to scan the girl's code.
The sweet voice made the girl look up. She had actually just seen a charming and beautiful girl standing next to Ning Anran.
To say that she is alluring is not entirely true.
The girl was brighter, closer to the morning light of the sun. She smiled sweetly, with a slight curve on her lips.
Somehow, she opened her payment code.
After sending a full 1,000 yuan, Gu Xia regarded it as a good deed, since she had no shortage of money anyway.
…
Push open the office door.
Ning Anran walked back, and the employees who were slacking off at their workstations and looking at their coffee and milk tea now smiled triumphantly.
"Hey, weren't you walking pretty diligently last night?"
"Why, you came back in such a dejected mood today?"
"Isn't it embarrassing?"
Ning Anran took a step forward with her long legs. She bent over, and as someone who had extensive work experience in various restaurants over the years, she displayed a very humble attitude.
This action naturally made the man sitting in the first seat relax his vigilance, but then Ning Anran poured the scalding coffee in his hand directly on him.
"I'm sorry, Team Leader."
"The coffee was a little too hot, and I accidentally let it go."
"Is your computer okay?"
The man howled, and the chair behind him slid, the wheels mixed with coffee stains, and he couldn't stop at all, and he fell to the ground.
Extremely embarrassed.
"Ning Anran, you! You're really outrageous! I think you don't want to work here anymore, right?"
"I'm going to make you get out today. Don't even think about getting a penny of your salary!"
His cheeks were red from being burned. The man took off his glasses and wiped the stains on his body with the tissue paper on the table.
"Okay, you Dingsheng guys are taking advantage of your size to bully customers, right?"
"Do you really think there's no one behind our An Ran?"
"Little turtle bastard."
Gu Xia walked past the crowd with a disdainful tone, and her slender fingertips fell on Ning Anran's back.
It seems like he is trying to support Ning Anran.
The brand-name clothes she was wearing were not ordinary items. Dingsheng itself was a group involved in the clothing industry. When everyone saw Gu Xia's outfit, they were stunned.
I didn't dare to get close and help the team leader.
"Where did you come from, kid? I'm telling you, no outsiders are allowed in here!"
The man slammed the coffee-stained tissue on the table, his eyes widening in anger.
"Well, you may not have heard of my name."
"Then you must have heard of my sister."
"Her name is Gu Lindong."
Gu Xia flicked her fingertips, and as if a cat had done it on purpose, more than a dozen cups of coffee and milk tea on the table were all knocked over.
When the man heard the name, he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. Who hadn't heard of Gu Lindong's name?
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Xia carefully, and was surprised to find that this young woman did bear some resemblance to Gu Lindong in her eyes and eyebrows.
"My sister happens to have a contract with your Dingsheng. Seeing how badly you treat newcomers, I don't think you're a good partner."
Gu Xia fully displayed the "domineering" attitude of the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King, but she was like a boneless puddle of water, lying on Ning Anran's body, losing some of her domineering and cool aura.
Moreover, the trick used by Gu Xia was also "the fox borrows the tiger's power to bully others".
If the male protagonist can use his half-brother's position to show off his power, then it would be no different from the original plot if she uses her sister's position to show off her power.
"Congratulations, host. The heroine's favorability score is +5."
Done!
Gu Xia was very satisfied with his success in fighting and competing.
That's right, she is now going to hold an umbrella for the heroine, to protect her from the wind and rain. Anyone who wants to hurt the heroine will be slapped once, and anyone who gets close to the heroine will be slapped twice.
Take away another kick!
…
"Mr. Cheng, please come in."
"Our President Li is waiting for you."
The tall man glanced at Cheng Chen standing behind him and said expressionlessly, "Newcomer, just wait here for a while."
When Cheng Chen saw his elder brother, he didn't dare to go forward to recognize him. His father said that it would be best if his elder brother didn't notice his presence.
Otherwise, the eldest brother will definitely get rid of him.
"Yes, Mr. Cheng."
Similarly, they all have the surname Cheng.
But they have different fates.
Cheng Chen obediently stepped aside, and at this moment he heard a noisy sound from next door.
He looked up and saw Ning Anran confronting the employees of Dingsheng Group.
"I will submit my resignation today. I don't think your company's philosophy and mine are compatible."
"There's no need to stay here any longer."
Unlike her previous decadence, Ning Anran now had a tenacity in her. She spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, and protected Gu Xia behind her.
That's Enron?!
When did her relationship with Gu Xia become so good? !
Cheng Chen's throat moved, and he raised his hands to rub his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
