The runaway Cinderella of the billionaire president
Chapter 140 She is setting herself on fire
When Xu Zehao came out of the shower, Zhou Yian had already turned off the lights in the room, leaving only the wall lamp on. The light it emitted was too weak, and the room was dim. He didn't know whether she was asleep or not.
Xu Zehao walked forward, lifted the quilt and lay down.
The next second, Zhou Yian's body came closer, curled up in his arms, his hands casually resting on his waist.
Xu Zehao's breathing stagnated. After pausing for two seconds, he hugged her and said indifferently, "Go to sleep."
When Zhou Yian got up the next day, Xu Zehao had already left.
She got up calmly, washed, changed her clothes, and went to the porridge shop they used to go to often. After eating one portion for herself, she packed another and took a taxi to Xu's.
She stood downstairs of Xu's building, looked up at the towering building, and felt mixed emotions.
After she resigned from this place, she never set foot here again. Now that she has come back to this place, she feels a little guilty and insecure.
She took a deep breath and encouraged herself. She knew that what she was doing was just playing with fire and if she wasn't careful she would end up getting burned, but she had to do it.
She had worked here before and was familiar with the place, so she went straight to the company's front desk reception.
"Hello, I'm looking for Xu Zehao." She didn't call him Mr. Xu or Mr. Xu like others did, but just called him by his name.
The pretty young receptionist didn't react for a moment and looked at Zhou Yian in confusion, "Who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Xu Zehao, that's, your President Xu." Zhou Yian explained quickly.
The receptionist looked at Zhou Yian in disbelief, her eyes wandering over her body. The woman in front of her was very outstanding. Although she was not wearing any makeup, her face was still breathtakingly beautiful. Such a top beauty might really have some special relationship with the big boss.
Thinking of this, she immediately smiled professionally, "Miss, what should I call you? Do you have an appointment with Mr. Xu?"
"Does this... still require an appointment?"
"Yes, Miss, if you don't have an appointment, you can also call Mr. Xu directly."
The receptionist looked at her politely, but inwardly she was waiting to see how she would react.
Zhou Yian's heart tightened, his fingers clenched the hem of his clothes. Just as he was about to take out his cell phone to call Xu Zehao, a clear and loud female voice came from behind him, "Miss Zhou?"
Zhou Yian turned around and it turned out to be Gu Jiatong.
"I thought I was mistaken, it turns out it was really you." Gu Jiatong walked over from not far away with a swaying figure.
"Hello, Miss Gu, what a coincidence." Zhou Yian looked at her and greeted her generously.
"Assistant Gu, this lady said she wanted to see Mr. Xu, but she didn't make an appointment in advance." When the receptionist saw Gu Jiatong coming, she quickly told her the whole story.
"Okay, I understand." After saying that, Gu Jiatong looked at Zhou Yian. When she saw what she was holding in her hand, she already understood almost everything.
"Send food to Zehao?"
"Yeah, I'm not at work. I just happened to be walking around the area and decided to come and see her on a whim."
Gu Jiatong raised her hand and looked at her watch. "Ms. Zhou, at this time, Zehao is in the conference room discussing cooperation with the CEO of another company. I'm afraid... he doesn't have time to see you."
Zhou Yian smiled and his eyes stayed on Gu Jiatong's face, "Ms. Gu, it seems that you are very familiar with Xu Zehao." There was a hint of sophistication in his gentle tone.
"Don't get me wrong, Ms. Zhou. It's just work." Gu Jiatong's answer was very official and flawless.
"Since he is not available, forget it. Please help me give this to her." Zhou Yian said as he handed over the packed porridge in his hand.
Gu Jiatong glanced at the bag she handed over and didn't reach out to take it. "Since you're here, why don't you wait and hand it to him in person, Miss Zhou?"
"It's okay, it's just a whim. I see him every day anyway, so it doesn't matter whether I see him or not. Please help me give it to him."
As soon as Zhou Yian said this, the eyes of the receptionist who was eavesdropping on the conversation widened instantly. They met every day? This must be a big deal.
In fact, there has always been gossip about Special Assistant Gu and President Xu within the Xu Group. Everyone thinks that Special Assistant Gu and President Xu have a special relationship. No one expected that a third party would suddenly appear today, and this third party seems to be very complicated.
"Why don't you go to Zehao's office and wait for him. This meeting will end in half an hour."
"it is good."
"Then please come this way." Gu Jiatong said and took Zhou Yian to Xu Zehao's office.
"Miss Zhou, please sit here and wait. I have something to do so I will leave first."
"Okay, thank you, sorry for the trouble." Zhou Yian watched Gu Jiatong leave, and for a moment he began to doubt his previous judgment. Does this woman like Xu Zehao?
If she didn't like him, why did she look at him with such an ambiguous provocation in her eyes before?
If she likes him, but she doesn't look threatening at all, it doesn't seem logical.
This was Zhou Yian’s first visit to Xu Zehao’s office.
The office is very large and is decorated mainly in black and white, a cool style, just like his personality.
There is nothing else in the office except some office supplies. It can be seen that the owner of this office is a serious person.
Zhou Yian sat in the office waiting. Soon half an hour passed and Xu Zehao didn't come back. An hour passed and Xu Zehao still didn't come back.
She stood up, put the packaged porridge on his desk, and left.
It was almost noon when Xu Zehao finished the meeting, and it was time for lunch. His partner invited him out for lunch, and he did not refuse.
After lunch, he returned to the office and saw the conspicuous lunch box on the desk. He opened it puzzledly and found a bowl of yam, pork ribs and lotus seed porridge that he used to eat often. Very few people knew that he liked this porridge.
He looked up and glanced at the office. Apart from the extra bowl of porridge, there was nothing different.
Curious, he picked up the phone on the table and called his secretary, but the secretary said she didn't know.
At this time, there was a knock on the door and Gu Jiatong pushed the door open.
She saw that the porridge in front of Xu Zehao was untouched, and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is the love porridge not to your taste?"
“So you bought it.”
"What? No, this was bought by someone in your family. Don't you know about this?"
Gu Jiatong stared at Xu Zehao's face closely, trying to probe his emotions through his micro-expressions, but he looked calm and it was impossible to tell what emotions he was feeling.
"It seems that you don't know."
"You let her in?"
"Well, I happened to pass by the front desk and saw her arguing with the receptionist. She didn't have an appointment, and the receptionist wouldn't let her in, so I brought her to your office."
"Okay, I understand. Is there anything else you need?" His tone was calm and indifferent, and his expression was natural, making it difficult to see through him.
"Here are the minutes of today's meeting and the terms of the contract. Take a look at them when you have time and sign them." Gu Jiatong said as she placed the documents in her hand on his desk.
"okay, I get it."
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
"Ah."
