Chapter 106: Catch me! I’m greedy and only care about profit…
On the third day at the manor, Fei Guojing brought Huang Rong to visit Gu Xiangsi.
"Oh, your hand is injured." Huang Rong saw Zhou Ye applying ointment to Gu Xiangsi's hand as soon as she entered the room. She hurried over with concern, "Your hands are so beautiful, with delicate skin and tender flesh. You must take good care of them."
After he finished speaking, he looked into Zhou Ye's eyes and greeted him.
She paused, her tone tinged with indignation, "Just talking about it makes me angry. Today I heard Lao Fei say that you were injured, and it was that woman who did it. She's really vicious!"
Gu Xiangsi smiled and shook her head: "Mrs. Fei, I'm fine, it's just a minor injury. Thank you for taking the trouble to come all the way here. Thank you for coming to see me."
"Why are you being so polite to me?" Huang Rong waved her hand, her eyes full of sincerity. "Speaking of which, I have to thank you. If you hadn't helped me out a few days ago, I don't know how I would have lived."
Gu Xiangsi understood what she meant.
"By the way, where is Professor Fei?" Gu Xiangsi asked casually.
"He's chatting with Mr. Fu in the living room outside." Huang Rong said, moving closer. "What do you want to tell me? Just ask."
Three women in the room were talking in low voices.
In the living room outside, Fei Guojing's attitude remained firm. He looked at Fu Sinian with a frown, "Boss Fu, I cannot accept such an employee in your company."
"She has been fired." Fu Sinian said in a deep voice.
"Firing one person is far from enough." Fei Guojing refused to give in. "You've been abroad for years, so you might not be familiar with the situation here. I'm worried without someone I absolutely trust watching over me.
I've investigated that Rika. She's been in the company for so many years, and she must have cultivated her own confidants. The implications behind this... I really can't take this risk."
Fu Sinian tapped his fingertips lightly on the armrest of the sofa. He was silent for a moment, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.
"My special assistant is already handling it."
Fu Sinian changed the subject.
"I heard that Mrs. Fei likes the weather in Hong Kong City. If Professor Fei wants to go back to Hong Kong City sometime, there is a manor there that I can give to you at the original price."
Fei Guojing's eyes narrowed.
He had indeed thought about returning to his roots and moving back to Hong Kong City with his family in the future.
But he also knew that the villas and manors over there were very expensive and difficult to buy. Now someone offered him such an opportunity, and he was hesitating when Huang Rongcong walked over to his room.
"Old Fei, what are you doing? Are you making things difficult for Mr. Fu again?" Huang Rong said, "Listen to your wife."
"I know how to listen. If you listen to your wife, you will be prosperous." Fei Guojing replied with a smile.
"That's it," Huang Rong said. "Miss Gu saved me before, and now she's being implicated because of this."
"If you still hesitate and refuse to agree, I will feel even worse if Miss Gu is fired."
In the end, Fei Guojing not only signed the contract, but also agreed to put the overseas project on track and was hired as a technical consultant by a domestic group.
Fu Sinian's face, in Gu Xiangsi's words, is simply invulnerable.
I changed her sanitary napkin myself for five consecutive days. If it were someone else, they would have blushed all the way to their neck and would have been embarrassed and at a loss as to what to do.
But he was so calm the whole time, as if he was doing something very ordinary, without any embarrassment on his face. He was so natural and familiar, it was as if he had thick skin etched into his bones.
Anyone who sees this will have to sigh, "He has a big heart and a rough face."
Instead, Gu Xiangsi said to him, "Assistant Gu, you are the only one who takes care of assistants."
I was so stunned by his words that I felt angry and embarrassed.
It was clearly him who did it so unconventionally and yet so naturally, it seemed as if she had taken great advantage of him. The self-righteousness in his tone made it seem unnecessary for her to even refute him.
Because of her injury, her return trip was delayed.
On the sixth day, some of the small wounds on Gu Xiangsi's hands had scabbed over, and the redness and swelling had subsided a lot. He was able to do some simple activities, and the gauze on his hands was removed.
Fu Sinian held the ointment in his hand, and Gu Xiangsi thought about doing it himself.
The man's fingertips were stained with the cool and smooth cream and he held her wrist.
Gu Xiangsi tried to pull her hand away, but he pressed his thumb on her pulse, which was beating violently.
"Don't move." His eyelashes cast shadows in the light as he lowered his eyes. "Aren't you afraid of getting a scar?"
…
It was March 10th, and more than half a month had passed since I returned home.
During these days, she made a lot of phone calls to inquire about her grandma. The operation was very successful, and Nanyu and Qin Shiwei stayed with her grandma whenever they were free.
On the overseas subsidiary side, Fu Sinian finally reached an agreement with Zhou Botong, with Zhou Botong acquiring shares and taking charge of management.
As for Lika's ending, Gu Xiangsi knew it clearly. With Fu Sinian's vengeful nature, he would never let her go easily.
She had asked Li Xiaoyao indirectly, but Li Xiaoyao just shook his head and kept silent about it, so she didn't dare to ask any further.
She did not sympathize with Lika, and felt that the man had brought this upon himself.
At this moment, looking at the man sitting on the sofa, concentrating on typing on the laptop keyboard, his eyes fell on the notebook on his legs.
The password of four ones is her birthday?
Gu Xiangsi was consumed by this for several days.
Although the two had broken up long ago, this incident was like a thorn in her heart, making her feel uncomfortable and upset.
It had been raining sporadically for a week, but it had stopped now.
In the sunlight after the rain, a beam of colorful clouds passed through the window and landed right on the man's head.
Gu Xiangsi was stunned for a moment, and in a trance she recalled the scene of the two of them in the university apartment five years ago.
At that time, Fu Sinian laughed and scolded her as a lazy cat because when they were in love, she didn't like to go out with her classmates on Saturdays and Sundays, but loved to stick to him.
He also said she was a clingy little cat.
She was so engrossed in watching that she suddenly met Fu Sinian's raised peach blossom eyes.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" he asked.
Coming back to his senses, his eyes fell on his notebook, he pursed his lips and asked what he had just been thinking.
"Mr. Fu, why did you set your password to four ones?"
Fu Sinian was stunned, lowered his head to look at the computer for a while, then looked up at her: "Gu Xiangsi..."
"Should I tie you up for life to prevent you from stealing all the company secrets?"
He paused, "I'm asking you a question!"
"If I steal secrets, will you arrest me?" Gu Xiangsi asked back.
"Catch me! I'm greedy and only care about money..."
“…Profits have always been the priority.”
"Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I will catch you," Fu Sinian added.
"Sure enough..." Gu Xiangsi lowered his head.
A shadow suddenly fell overhead. Fu Sinian walked over and sat down on the stool beside the bed.
"As for the computer password you mentioned, you'll know it tomorrow."
"What?" Gu Xiangsi was puzzled.
"We will return home in three days," he added.
"Really?"
When Gu Xiangsi heard that she could return to China, she immediately became excited. She could finally see her grandma, Nanyu and Qin Shiwei.
A smile spread across her face, and Fu Sinian suddenly felt that rainy days abroad were not so annoying after all.
