Chapter 290 The coffee is bitter
"Good morning, Minister Murong." Gu Xiqing smiled at her and greeted her.
Lin Qingxuan just gave him a cold look.
When the elevator door opened, he walked straight into the elevator, and Gu Xiqing hurriedly followed.
Murong Xue looked at the two people who entered the elevator one after another, and the smile in her eyes became even more intense.
The emotional entanglement between President Lin and President Gu has been quietly watched by everyone in Tiansheng, and she is no exception.
I saw Mr. Gu’s resignation email last weekend, but it was withdrawn in the afternoon.
When I met him today, he became Mr. Lin’s special assistant.
really interesting.
He smiled and shook his head, then walked into another elevator.
When the elevator went up to the first floor, I ran into a few male leaders who were chatting and laughing.
Their fiery eyes fell on her without any concealment. After sizing her up several times, they turned around and talked to others, "Gu Xiqing has become a junior assistant after stepping down as president."
One of them nodded. "I've been annoyed with her for a long time. She relied on the support of someone behind her and was promoted to the position of vice president right after joining. As soon as something happened to CEO Lin, she immediately rushed to promote herself to the position. What a jerk! We've been working here for so many years, and we've only just reached this position..."
Another man snorted disdainfully and echoed, "She's lucky. The Du family intervened and forced Mr. Lin to marry her and then gave her the position of vice president. She doesn't have to experience our pain at all."
Murong Xue rolled her eyes secretly, and when the elevator reached her floor, she hurriedly left this smoky little space.
Here, Lin Qingxuan and Gu Xiqing walked out of the elevator one after another and entered his exclusive office.
Gu Xiqing stayed in this office for almost a month and added a lot of small things to it. Everywhere she looked, there were green plants placed in the corner and a small fish tank.
I was too busy and emotionally confused before, so I didn't notice that the office, which was originally gray and white and calm and quiet, has completely changed.
Gu Xiqing quickly ran to the desk, picked up her snack box and put it aside.
"Let me clean it up!"
Sometimes when she works overtime, she gets too bored and wants to eat something, so Ajie prepared a snack box for her.
Thinking that I would only be in City A for a few days, I didn't ask the cleaning lady in the office to take away the snack box.
Put the snack box away, adjust the height of the office chair, and adjust the angle of the computer screen to his liking.
"……alright."
Lin Qingxuan raised his eyebrows slightly, walked to the office chair next to her and sat down.
After turning on the computer, Gu Xiqing went to the small water bar on the other side of the office, opened the cabinet, took out the coffee beans, boiled water, and ground the coffee.
An all-round assistant... Never mind, I'll just stick to my own field.
She didn't have much ambition for the position, so the work of the president's assistant involved less external work and more internal work.
For example, she doesn't have to go to negotiate projects, but she has to be responsible for some of the leadership's trivial matters.
Just like now, make a cup of coffee first.
Not sure whether he should add sugar to his coffee at work, Gu Xiqing picked up the small spoon and took a sip.
bitter……
I added a packet of saccharin and creamer according to my own drinking habits, stirred it, and served it to him.
"President, I'm going to work in Wu Te's office. Call me if you need anything."
Wu Te's office is at the other end of the corridor outside.
Lin Qingxuan was carefully looking at the report for the past month. When he heard that she was leaving, he raised his head unhappily and said, "From now on, you will work in this office with me."
This office is as big as a suite. When she goes out, he will be alone in the cold and deserted place, which he doesn't like.
"Everyone works in their own offices and at their own workstations."
Gu Xiqing reminded him.
"Your workstation is here." Lin Qingxuan snorted coldly, "Don't leave my sight."
“…Lin Qing…”
Before he even uttered the word "Xuan", he warned him, "In the company, during work hours, how can you address your superiors by their full names?"
"President." Gu Xiqing turned her head away and rolled her eyes secretly.
What is he trying to do again?
"Hmm..." Seeing her reluctance, Lin Qingxuan was in a good mood. He took a sip of coffee and frowned slightly, "The coffee is too bitter."
"Bitter?" Hearing this, Gu Xiqing took a few steps closer and looked at the coffee on the table. "I put a packet of sugar and creamer in it, it can't be bitter."
It's still bitter, but not particularly bitter.
Why does he look like this is a cup of pure coffee?
"Come here..." Lin Qingxuan motioned her to come closer to him.
Gu Xiqing stepped forward cautiously.
I always feel that he has bad intentions. It's not like I've never seen him drink bitter coffee before.
This cup of coffee is just everyday flavor, how bitter can it be?
While she was thinking, the man who was originally sitting on the office chair suddenly stood up, pulled her into his arms, and pecked her lips.
"It's not painful now." His movements were smooth and seamless. After the kiss, he let go of her and looked at her angry eyes. His Adam's apple rolled slightly. "Remember to add this kiss next time."
"..." Gu Xiqing pushed him away, "Aren't you losing your memory? Why don't you quickly learn about the projects we've been collaborating on for the past two years?"
"If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten that I had lost my memory..." Lin Qingxuan sat back down and opened the folder on his computer. "Since you know I have lost my memory, as my assistant, shouldn't you be by my side and tell me every detail?"
Folders are categorized. If you want to view projects from a certain year, just open the corresponding folder.
Follow up on a project or review a contract and you’ll see it all at a glance.
"Assistant Wu should have told you everything." Gu Xiqing felt that it would be extremely dangerous to get close to him. Even if they worked in the same office, she would choose the farthest position.
Lin Qingxuan rolled the middle button of the mouse to read the densely packed text on the computer while patting his thigh.
"come over."
In the past few days, he has learned most of the information from his home office computer, and now looking at the contents, there is no difference between them and the backup at home.
After waiting for a long time but Gu Xiqing didn't come, he raised his eyes, and there was a cold look in his eyes.
Gu Xiqing swallowed nervously.
This is an office, he won't do anything out of the ordinary.
Comforting him, he walked over and sat down, looking at the contents on the computer, and explained, "This is a project we just negotiated with an overseas company half a month ago. We are currently going through the final process and can officially start construction after approval."
"This is what you discussed earlier. The project has reached the final stage. Someone has already gone to conduct the on-site survey, and you will receive the report in a few days."
"The rest of these..." Gu Xiqing held down his hand that was pulling at his shirt clip, breathing steadily, and continued, "This is an undeveloped area in S City. We bought it in advance and are already under construction. It's expected to be completed within two years."
“…Lin Qingxuan!”
Lin Qingxuan put his arm around her waist, and with his other hand he touched the middle button of the mouse to scroll through the contents of the computer file.
"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly breathing so fast?" He looked at her blushing cheeks as if he knew nothing, like a studious student, "We still have some projects. Should we continue?"
