C10 What Was Supposed to Come Has Come
The next day, Gu Yuling did not come to the company.
"Jiajia, I heard your sister sprained her ankle yesterday. How is she?" Lee Zhi chatted with Gu Ranjia and racked his brains to think of all the topics to talk about.
Hearing this, Gu Ranjia paused and coffee almost spilled out. "What did you say?"
"You don't know, do you?" Lee Zhi saw that she finally responded to him and immediately became happy. "I heard this morning that your sister was injured when she worked overtime yesterday and was taken away by Director Sheng."
No wonder she did not go home!
Gu Ranjia took in a breath of cold air. Her fingers that were holding the coffee cup were clearly defined, and her fingers were slightly white. Her smile was stiff on her face.
"I really do not know about this. Yuling did not go home for the whole night. I am very worried about her." A trace of panic flashed in Gu Ranjia's eyes.
If what Lee Zhi said was true, Gu Yuling was taken away by Sheng Jingxun, then where would she be now?
This time Gu Ranjia was completely nervous. It was as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and she could not sit still. For the whole day, she was out of her wits. Seeing that it was almost time to get off work, she finally dialed Gu Yuling's number.
At that time, Gu Yuling was sitting in the backyard of Sheng Jingxun's house, squinting her eyes to bask in the sun.
It had to be said that the environment here was really good. The high-end community was a high-end community. She took a deep breath and the fragrance of flowers filled every cell of her body.
When she heard the ringtone, her eyes were half closed, and she pressed the answer button. "Hello?"
"Yuling, I'm Older Sister. I heard that you were injured and I was very worried about you. Where did you go? Why didn't I see you coming to work?" Gu Ranjia smiled gently and suppressed the emotions that were rolling in her heart.
What was supposed to come had indeed come. Gu Yuling held her breath and held her breath. She smiled sweetly and said the lines that she had long thought of, "I am recuperating at Director Sheng's house. I may not be able to go back for the next few days. Help me tell my parents. Thank you. Sister. "
She deliberately emphasized the last two words. Compared to respect, she was more sarcastic.
"What?" Gu Ranjia was shocked and hurriedly shouted, "How can you live in a stranger's house? You are even shameless!"
Her sharp voice almost penetrated the screen. Gu Yuling took the phone a little further away and frowned impatiently, "Director Sheng is not a stranger to me."
"Thank you for your concern. When I am well, I will go to work immediately. I will not delay the progress. Coincidentally, I am not at the company, so you have more opportunities to show off." Gu Yuling said frankly.
"You must go home tonight!" Gu Ranjia said angrily.
Gu Yuling, however, turned a deaf ear to her words. "I am an adult and have the right to decide where to go. Gu Ranjia, when did you care so much about me?"
Gu Yuling deliberately made her tone unclear and from time to time, she would let out a few lovely laughs which made Gu Ranjia's heart tremble, "Elder sister, if there is nothing else, I will die first. The doctor wants me to rest more."
As soon as she finished speaking, she hung up Gu Ranjia's phone.
Damn it!
Gu Ranjia's chest suffered a heavy blow. She kept taking deep breaths to calm herself down, but it was to no avail. The lipstick in her hand fell to the ground with a thud, but she did not feel anything.
In the back garden, Gu Yuling stared at the phone screen and could not help but laugh.
She curled her fingers and closed her eyes. Just thinking about how Gu Ranjia was so angry that she stomped her foot, she was very satisfied.
In Glory World Group, outside the chairman's office, Gu Ranjia suppressed the anger in her heart and squeezed out a smile before knocking on the door.
"Knock, knock -"
"Come in."
Gu Ranjia lowered her eyes and carefully walked in. She called out softly, "Director Sheng."
Sheng Jingxun stared at the documents in his hands and thought hard about something. He did not even raise his head. "Gu Ranjia, what is it?"
"I came for Yuling's matter," Gu Ranjia hurriedly stated her purpose of coming. She smiled awkwardly. "Director Sheng, my sister is recuperating in your home, right?"
This was the first time she was alone with Sheng Jingxun in the same room. Gu Ranjia was a little excited. She clenched the corner of her clothes and slowly blushed.
"Yes." Sheng Jingxun nodded without any rejection. "I gave her a few days off to let her have a good rest. You do not need to worry."
"No..." Gu Ranjia suddenly looked up, but she suddenly bumped into Sheng Jingxun's cold eyes. Her eyelids immediately tightened. "My parents are very worried about her. Why don't I go and pick her up and bring her home? Thank you, Director Sheng, for taking care of my sister. "
She gritted her teeth and said these words.
When Gu Yuling returned home, she really had to "take care" of her!
"What do you think I will do to her?" Sheng Jingxun changed the topic. His eyes emitted a sharp light and a cold dark light flashed in his eyes.
He put down the document in his hand and glanced at Gu Ranjia's face.
Gu Ranjia had no choice but to lower her head. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind. She forced a laugh and stuttered, "Director Sheng, I'm afraid you don't know much about my sister."
"Hmm?"
"She usually has the habit of not returning home at night. My parents are already used to it. But as an elder sister, I can't ignore her. Besides, she has been throwing a tantrum recently! To tell you the truth, her boyfriend came to beg me yesterday... He's helping him put in a good word in front of Yuling. Don't you think it's hard for me to be a person?"
Gu Ranjia said a lot in one breath. She panted slightly and indeed saw Sheng Jingxun frowning.
She was delighted in her heart and immediately took advantage of the situation to chase after him, "Director Sheng, Yuling is young and there are many things that she does not understand. The moment I speak of her, she will lose her temper with me. I am afraid that you will be sad..."
"Sad?" Sheng Jingxun was stunned and his eyes suddenly darkened, "As a chairman, it is my duty to care about my subordinates. You think too much."
Hearing this, Gu Ranjia was even more delighted. She grinned widely and said, "Since that is the case, I will go back with you after work. I will personally bring Yuling home."
"No."
Sheng Jingxun decisively rejected her suggestion.
Gu Ranjia gave a fake smile and was about to continue speaking when she was interrupted by Sheng Jingxun. "I have always been a person who values talent. Your sister is very talented. I have the intention to promote her, but you are not thinking about work. Instead, you listen to those rumors. If you continue to be like this, I'm afraid you'll have to consider moving to another place to work "
The reason why she spoke so politely was because she was Gu Yuling's older sister.
"Director Sheng, I didn't mean that!" Gu Ranjia immediately panicked. She anxiously waved her hands. If she was expelled by Glory World, wouldn't she have no chance to get close to Sheng Jingxun?
She could not accept such a thing happening!
"Still not going back?" Sheng Jingxun raised his eyebrows slightly, his tone somewhat displeased.
Gu Ranjia's words were stuck in her throat, and her expression immediately became very ugly, but she still maintained the elegance that she should have. She turned around and left the office.
Just as she walked out, her smile disappeared, and her face lost all color.
She secretly swore that she must make Gu Yuling pay the price!
