Chapter 93 Don’t embarrass Mr. Fu…
When Gu Xiangsi woke up, it was already half past eight in the morning.
She stared at the ceiling, still a little dazed.
When did you fall asleep last night?
I sat up and rubbed my swollen temples, and heard a woman's voice coming from the living room.
She straightened her clothes and just walked out when Fu Sinian's eyes fell on her, sliding from her face to her bare feet.
Gu Xiangsi felt a little embarrassed and curled up her toes subconsciously.
Fu Sinian coughed and pointed at his slippers: "Put on your slippers and come over for breakfast."
"Oh." Gu Xiangsi responded, turned around and went to the bathroom first. After coming out, she put on her shoes and walked to the dining table.
Lika, who was sitting next to him, looked at Fu Sinian with a deeper look in her eyes: "Sinian, is this Assistant Gu familiar to you?"
"Superior-subordinate relationship."
Gu Xiangsi's hand holding the spoon paused for a moment, and he continued to eat the millet porridge with his head down.
“…Why did she sleep at your place yesterday?” Lika’s eyes moved back and forth between Fu Sinian and Gu Xiangsi, like a hook, and she deliberately lingered on Fu Sinian’s face for a few seconds.
She stared closely at the subtle changes in his expression, trying to find a trace of emotion in his usual coldness.
"Lika, you're meddling in too many things." Fu Sinian's tone was filled with impatience.
"I..." Rika choked and asked again, "Haven't you always been a misogynist?"
Gu Xiangsi on the side continued to lower her head, adhering to my principle of not listening.
Fu Sinian frowned: "My mother loves to worry about things and always likes to play matchmaker, but her red thread can't lead you to this side."
Lika's face changed slightly, and her voice was filled with a hint of grievance: "I have been helping you manage your subsidiary abroad for the past few years. Don't you understand my feelings?"
Can she listen to this?
Gu Xiangsi put down her chopsticks and said, "Mr. Fu, how about I go to the balcony..."
Before he finished speaking, Fu Sinian's eyes swept over him.
There was an invisible sense of oppression in that look, and Gu Xiangsi's heart skipped a beat.
Is he angry?
Did I say something wrong?
At a time like this, she, a "light bulb", really shouldn't get involved, but with his reaction, is he trying to explain that there's nothing between them?
"Boom" is the sound of heartbeat hitting chest.
Gu Xiangsi felt like the air would freeze if she stayed any longer. She slowly stood up and said, almost as if escaping, "Then I... I'll go to the study to sort out the documents."
After saying that, he rushed to the study in his slippers, and closed the door with a bang.
Rika stared at the closed study door, her fingertips almost digging into her palms as she sat down.
This woman was clearly a huge threat to her. The way Si Nian looked at her was clearly different from the way he looked at others.
She just has a pretty face, but that's all for show.
A hint of malice flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared in an instant. She pretended to be calm and said, "Auntie intended for our two families to marry each other, and only I can be a good match for you."
"Stop." Fu Sinian put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and the invisible pressure from his superior dissipated.
"Rika, we can talk about business matters. But no one can interfere with my personal affairs."
"My mom means well, but that doesn't mean I'll accept it."
His tone was cold and hard, with a final ultimatum: "If you still want to talk about feelings, I think you can choose someone else for the position of vice president of the subsidiary."
"What did you say?" Lika's face was full of disbelief. Just because of this matter, he wanted to replace her?
No, absolutely not.
She had finally waited for the opportunity to be transferred back to the domestic head office, and nothing could go wrong at this critical juncture.
She suppressed her surging emotions and softened her tone: "Okay, let's talk about work first. As for Professor Fei..."
When it came to business, Fu Sinian finally looked at her straight in the eye.
"Go to Professor Fei's villa at half past ten."
The business car was already waiting at the hotel entrance.
Li Xiaoyao stood beside the car. Seeing Lika about to bend down to get into the back seat, he smiled and said, "Miss Lika, please sit in the front. The young master and Assistant Gu probably have some details to discuss."
Rika glared at him fiercely, tightening her grip on the bag a little more, but said nothing, and took a step forward to sit in the passenger seat.
Gu Xiangsi was the last one to come out. When she saw the business car, she was stunned for a moment. Her eyes fell on the empty seat next to Fu Sinian. She paused for a few seconds before lowering herself to sit in.
Li Xiaoyao handed over a file bag and said, "Assistant Gu, I'll trouble you to take care of these trivial matters from now on."
"Assistant Li is too polite."
Gu Xiangsi took the file bag and understood.
It seems that from today on, she has officially become Fu Sinian's personal assistant.
At this time, her financial sponsor was half leaning on the seat, with a lazy posture.
Gu Xiangsi was lowering her head slightly when her voice suddenly came from her ear, a little low.
"Do you have any special knowledge about Professor Fei?"
Gu Xiangsi pondered for a moment, and suddenly a light flashed in his eyes. He raised his eyes and said, "Mr. Fu, I remember that Professor Fei loves playing chess. And your chess skills..."
Halfway through her words, she seemed to suddenly realize something was wrong and her voice suddenly dropped.
Fu Sinian slowly opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on her, his tone devoid of emotion, "You have a good memory."
Okay! Gu Xiangsi shut up. She felt that she had said something wrong again.
The business car stopped in front of a villa in the suburbs. Someone came out of the villa and led them inside.
When passing the back garden, I saw a man standing behind a woman.
The woman was fiddling with her paintbrush at the easel, scribbling from time to time, her brows slightly furrowed as she muttered to herself in a low voice, "Why do I always feel like something's missing?"
"Take your time, it's okay." The man spoke gently and reached out to gently tuck the loose hair behind her ears and forehead back.
Hearing footsteps, the two turned around. Fu Sinian stepped forward and nodded, saying, "Hello, Professor Fei."
The two shook hands briefly. Professor Fei nodded slightly and pointed to the pavilion in front: "Go sit over there."
Gu Xiangsi's gaze lingered on the easel for a moment, then he stopped and said, "Madam, are you not satisfied with this color combination?"
The woman turned around and looked at her, her eyes brightening. "Yes. You are really pretty. What's your name?"
"My last name is Gu." Gu Xiangsi replied.
Hearing this, the woman picked up the paintbrush and handed it to him: "Why don't you try it?"
"Isn't this a bad idea?" Gu Xiangsi hesitated.
"Just give it a try." The woman stood up gently and insisted.
Just as Gu Xiangsi was about to take a step, the person in front of him stopped.
Rika muttered unhappily, "What can a vase do?"
"Assistant Gu, please don't embarrass President Fu..." Her tone was filled with contempt.
Before she could finish her words, Fu Sinian's cold gaze swept over and Lika immediately shut up.
Gu Xiangsi raised his eyes to look at Lika, and their eyes met.
She caught a glimpse of the provocation in Rika's eyes, smiled faintly, and sat down on the stool with a pen in hand.
With her grasp of color, design and concept, she made changes to the drawing.
Not long after, the woman suddenly shouted excitedly: "Old Fei, this is exactly the feeling I want! Miss Gu, you are amazing!"
"You're too kind, ma'am," she replied, putting down her pen. "I studied design in college."
The woman excitedly took Gu Xiangsi's hand and asked, "Would you like to have a cup of tea with me?"
