Chapter 29: They're dating, and he's eating dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing
"What? What?" Shu Weiting thought she had misheard. "You said Gu Ye gave you something?"
"House." Chu Xinglan uttered the two words clearly.
"Gu Ye...why would he give you a house?" Shu Weiting was incredulous. She had only heard yesterday that she worked at Gu Ye's company, and today she was given a house. Had she missed some important information?
"Company benefits!" Chu Xinglan quoted Gu Ye.
"Company benefits? Who are you kidding? Even the biggest gold mine owners wouldn't offer such high compensation. You've only been working here a few days and you've already been given an apartment?"
Although Gu Ye's company offers excellent benefits, isn't this too outrageous?
"You're very tight-lipped. Tell me honestly, is there something going on between you and Gu Ye? I've never heard of him being nice to any woman. Not only did he make an exception and make you his personal secretary, but he also gave you an apartment. What's going on?"
Although I didn't want to hide it from my friend, I also didn't want to scare her.
I remember in my past life, when I heard that she was going to marry Gu Ye, Shu Weiting was so excited that she almost had a heart attack. So, I need to slowly give her a heads-up. Besides, there's only a little bit between her and Gu Ye, and she's already been keeping it a secret. If everyone finds out, it'll be terrible.
"It really is a company benefit!" Chu Xinglan insisted, after all, Gu Ye had also insisted on telling her the same thing.
“Okay, your company’s benefits are too tempting. I’m not going abroad anymore. Can you introduce me to the company?” Shu Weiting said.
"Really?" Chu Xinglan smiled.
"No way, I'm not as lucky as you. Even if I wanted to join your company, Gu Ye might not want me." Shu Weiting said, then suddenly became interested, "Where is your house? Is it in a high-end neighborhood? I'll come and take a look at your place sometime."
"A house in the city center is considered high-end, right?" Chu Xinglan didn't really have a concept of houses, nor did she have any particular pursuits; as long as she could live there, that was fine.
"The city center?" Shu Weiting exclaimed again.
"Alright, thank you for making the trip for nothing. I'll treat you to a big meal another day as compensation," Chu Xinglan said with a smile.
"Absolutely! I won't feel right if I don't give you a good beating!" Shu Weiting said through gritted teeth.
"Boss, when did you and Miss Chu have 'that'?"
While driving, Xue Bai, impatient with the gossip he had overheard, finally risked being scolded by Gu Ye and cautiously asked.
However, the expected storm did not occur; Gu Ye's expression suggested he was lost in memories.
Xue Bai cautiously observed Gu Ye's reaction through the rearview mirror. Gu Ye was not angry; instead, a smile appeared on his lips.
"It was the time I took Chinese medicine!"
"So... that woman is Miss Chu?" Xue Bai asked in surprise.
He thought Sherry was both the one who poisoned and the one who provided the antidote. No wonder...
This Miss Chu is truly different from ordinary people. If it were anyone else, they would be like a clingy leech, impossible to shake off. Even if they couldn't become Mrs. Gu, they would still try to extort hundreds of millions. But she, on the other hand, casually said that he didn't have to take responsibility!
She didn't want him to take responsibility, but our big boss, shameless as ever, came to propose with half his fortune, and was still rejected...
Tsk tsk, is this Miss Chu perhaps a fairy sent by God to punish Gu Ye because he's too perfect? Otherwise, why would she completely ignore his personal charm?
"Drive carefully!" Gu Ye reminded Xue Bai, who was lost in thought.
It's fine if he gets distracted, but if Xue Bai gets distracted, he's practically playing with their lives. Having been given a second chance at life, he doesn't want to die in a car accident.
Reminded by Gu Ye, Xue Bai finally came to his senses and focused on driving.
"Find a way to get me moved to the floor opposite Lanlan by tomorrow afternoon." After a short silence, Gu Ye spoke again.
Xue Bai was taken aback.
Is this some kind of joke? Do you really think he's Superman, capable of anything?
"Boss, this seems a bit unreasonable."
"Can't do it?" Gu Ye sneered. "I haven't had a different assistant in years, have I?"
"I can do it, I absolutely must do it, boss, don't worry, I guarantee I'll complete the task perfectly!" Xue Bai hurriedly replied.
Xue Bai drove with tears welling up in his eyes.
What a devil! He actually threatened him with his golden rice bowl!
"Good morning, Assistant Xue; good morning, Boss!"
Chu Xinglan arrived at the company just in time to run into Gu Ye and Xue Bai, who were also there.
"Good morning!" Xue Bai greeted Chu Xinglan with a smile.
Judging from their expressions, it seems the clouds have parted and the sun is shining. It appears the boss, who has no dating experience, understands women better. By giving away a house, the woman's mood instantly improved. When Miss Chu was in a good mood, the boss's mood improved as well. And when the boss was in a good mood, his subordinates could live more comfortably.
They're in a relationship, and he's eating dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection), but he still has to enjoy it!
Gu Ye glanced at Chu Xinglan, then gestured to Xue Bai.
Xue Bai then remembered the dessert in his hand. Gu Ye knew that Chu Xinglan loved desserts, so he specially asked him to drive a long way to the most famous dessert shop to buy it.
"This is what the boss bought especially for you." Xue Bai handed the beautifully packaged gift box to Chu Xinglan.
"Thank you, Assistant Xue." Chu Xinglan happily accepted the gift box, then glanced at Gu Ye and smiled slightly, "Thank you, boss."
It's not that she likes desserts; it's all for the baby.
At this moment, the little baby was already drooling over the dessert in Chu Xinglan's hand.
"Mommy, baby wants to eat."
"Baby, let's be patient a little longer, Mommy will feed you later."
Chu Xinglan and the baby had a telepathic connection.
The little baby knew that it wasn't very elegant for Mommy to eat in public like that, so he licked his lips and nodded.
"The baby is so good!"
Chu Xinglan glanced at Xue Bai and Gu Ye, feeling embarrassed to say, "Let's go up quickly," but her eagerness did not escape Gu Ye's notice.
Gu Ye didn't say anything and quickened his pace toward the elevator.
As subordinates, Chu Xinglan and Xue Bai naturally followed closely behind.
Chu Xinglan was secretly delighted. Gu Ye really was her wish stone. Just as she was about to hurry up, Gu Ye quickened his pace.
As the three of them entered the elevator at the same time, the female employees behind them saw clearly the scene of Xue Bai giving Chu Xinglan the dessert gift box.
Because they were far apart, they couldn't hear what Xue Bai and Chu Xinglan were saying, but from Chu Xinglan's expression, they could tell that she really liked the gift Xue Bai had given her.
Originally, seeing that the boss had a beautiful female secretary by his side, coming and going with him every day, they were worried that she would take advantage of his proximity to him. However, it seems that their worries were unnecessary. She and Assistant Xue have taken a liking to each other and are openly exchanging flirtatious glances in front of the boss.
