C10 Keep you by your side

Qin Ran was being held by the waist all the way until he entered the office. Only then did he relax a little.

She took advantage of the moment to break free of the clamps and was about to run back when the automatic door closed two seconds before her and clattered down on the lock.

Damn it.

Qin Ran immediately glared at the desk. He saw the corner of Tang Wulin's lips curled up into a faint smile as he held a delicate remote control in his hand.

"What are you trying to do?" She looked around the vast space, but there was nothing to defend herself with. She pressed her back against the glass door, keeping a straight line between them, watching him warily.

She was unable to see through this man's emotions more and more, so she was unable to know what his next action would be.

"Do you think I should ask you that?" Gu Lingfeng did not try to force her into a corner, but slowly sat down on the leather chair and turned towards her, "What is your purpose for spending so much effort to come to my company and cause trouble?"

Qin Ran was disgusted by that unfathomable expression. He felt extremely uncomfortable and started to laugh, "What am I here for? "I believe Mr. Gu had already heard the introduction to the front desk."

"Oh, you want to apply for my assistant?" Gu Lingfeng raised an eyebrow and slowly repeated, "You, want to be my assistant?"

His emphasis on the word "mine" had a kind of real, unreal graveness to it.

Qin Ran was already in a bad mood and admitted without much hesitation, "That's right, I want to be your assistant."

He wouldn't agree to it anyway, and now that they were alone, she didn't want to pretend to see him again. He just wanted to get out of this damn place as soon as possible and wait for Gu Shaolin to find her and tell her to go work at his company.

"Since you really think so ?" Gu Lingfeng did not pay attention to her expression. He took out a copy from the pile of documents on the table and read it. Then, he muttered: "Then, should I think about it?"

Consider? It was simply an excuse to tease her.

Qin Ran's patience was running out and he didn't look too good. He stood by the door waiting for him to finish, but he seemed to have forgotten about this. He scanned the documents a few times and signed his name.

She felt bored, so she grabbed the door handle and shook it a few times. However, the quality of the door was too good, so even after being tossed around by her, it didn't budge at all. She gritted her teeth and let out a breath, suppressing the thought of kicking him as she resigned herself to her fate.

Just when she thought that Gu Lingfeng did not want to bother with her anymore, he suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Since that's the case, then go and report to the HR Department and start working tomorrow."

Qin Ran suddenly raised his head and looked at him in disbelief.

Report? Work?!

Did she hear anything wrong? Based on his words, Gu Lingfeng was giving her this job?

"What? Shocked?" Gu Lingfeng raised his head from the pile of documents, just in time to see a surprised expression on her face.

The noon sunlight shone through the window. Sitting in the light, he seemed to radiate a golden light. Even the fine fur on his face had a gentle color. From this angle, that face was unbelievably handsome.

Fake. Qin Ran reminded himself that those warm appearances were just illusions.

She straightened her expression and tried to make her voice sound cold, "Mr. Gu, you clearly know the reason why I came to apply, but why did you agree?"

Letting her become the Gu family's assistant was the same as burying a ticking time bomb by his side.

Gu Lingfeng actually shrugged and smiled, "You don't need to feel any psychological pressure. I'm just doing it for the sake of our past relationship. "

Friendship? The devil had a relationship with him!

Qin Ran was angered by his words and laughed, "Mr. Gu, you must be joking right? "Let me think about it. If selling you the company I used to work for is considered friendship, then Mr. Gu indeed owes me a favor."

She spoke with gritted teeth. She didn't want to bring up that part of the story at all.

"If you really must feel that way, then I am indeed indebted to you for what you did back then." Gu Lingfeng did not mind her sarcasm, "In short, you stay in peace with the great cause of your revenge, and I will follow my own heart and keep you by my side. We each take what we need, is there something wrong with that?"

The meaning in her words was actually hinting that she should go ahead and do it.

Qin Ran's heart shook as if it was filled with some emotion.

Keep her by your side. This was not a word he had said to her before, it was not a word he had said to her before. But she had nothing left. What could he get from her?

Qin Ran clenched his fists. The sharp pain from his palm reminded her to stay awake. She put on a coquettish smile, "We're all acquaintances, so Chairman Gu shouldn't make such jokes." If you have any conditions, why don't you spread them out. "

"No conditions." Gu Lingfeng quickly answered, "You just need to appear within my line of sight every day until the day you completely defeat me."

These words were said in a relaxed manner, causing her to become somewhat absent-minded.

"Now, I'll call the personnel department. You can go report it." He picked up the phone on the table and paused. "Oh right, I'll give you three months' salary in advance, on the card I gave you before. That card, did you throw it away? "

"Throw it away." Qin Ran spread out his hands.

The card was taken from her while she was in prison. In fact, she clearly had a way to hide it, but she didn't want it anymore.

The light in Gu Lingfeng's eyes dimmed for a moment, but it quickly returned to normal, "Throw it away then, I'll make another one for you."

Qin Ran could not bear to see him like this. He turned away without a care, "Mr. Gu, it's still the same. We are already so familiar with each other. Can I interpret your current appearance as you making a discovery in your heart that you want to make up to me? "

"Yes, but not all of them." Gu Lingfeng gave her a deep look.

By the time he left the HR Department, it was already past lunch time. Since he didn't buy any food at home, Qin Ran was thinking about where he should go to have a meal when the phone in his pocket rang.

She felt around and found that it was Gu Shaolin.

The young lord of the Gu family hadn't looked for her for so long, what had happened today?

She was in a pretty good mood, so she picked it up and teased, "Hello? "Grandpa Gu, why are you thinking of me today?"

After a long while, Gu Shaolin's sinister voice came from the other side, "Qin Ran, you've become an assistant at Gu Lingfeng's company?"
