C10 Flattery and Flattery

"What? Secretary Tang, do you want me to be angry with you?"

Guoguo quickly waved her hand. "No... Director Gu, I... I just didn't expect you to not be angry when I said that."

Gu Chengxi raised his eyes and crossed his beautiful and slender fingers on his legs. He leaned comfortably on the leather sofa with a lazy posture. It made him seem a little careless. "I like people who tell the truth. Of course, I have to rely on my real ability at work. There are too many people flattering me. You can say those words today. I knew that you are definitely not a woman who can be promoted by just talking."

His words undoubtedly increased Guoguo's confidence greatly. She really did not expect that this insufferably arrogant Gu Chengxi. The dignified Crown Prince of Hualong could actually judge her from such an angle. It was a lie to say that she wasn't happy. She couldn't help but tighten her fingers. She took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your understanding, Director Gu. I was a little impulsive when I spoke just now. Actually, I... "

"Actually, I just came to Hualong. I also need a secretary, so I want you to be my personal secretary directly. What do you think?"

Guoguo opened her mouth wide and looked at Gu Chengxi in shock.

What... did he just say?

He called her over today and not only did he not blame her, he even praised her straightforward attitude and now he even wanted to promote her?

She wasn't dreaming, he didn't take the wrong medicine, right?

"Director Gu, what you said just now... You want me to be your secretary?" She stood up unnaturally and asked again.

Gu Chengxi was still leaning on the sofa. At this time, he smiled very relaxed. Only then did Guoguo realize that when he smiled, there was also a faint dimple on his right cheek. Another beautiful face flashed across her mind in an instant. When she smiled, there was also dimple. However, Gu Chengxi's was much lighter than Gu Xinyi's. Because his smile was very shallow. It was faintly discernible, like a wisp of wind on the surface of the sea. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared without a trace, making people feel suspicious and mistaken.

"You didn't mishear me. I asked you to be my secretary." He raised his eyebrows slightly. "You don't want to?"

Guoguo pursed her lips and considered very carefully for a moment. Finally, she said very conservative, "Director Gu, thank you for your love. I did not think that I would have such luck today. Actually, when I just came in, I was determined to die, but... now the road has changed. However, since you said it to me personally, then I have the right to choose... "

She took a deep breath and stared at Gu Chengxi, "Yes, I don't want to."

Gu Chengxi looked up and down at her. The deep light in his eyes was not surprising at all. It was as if her refusal was within his expectation and he was somewhat satisfied.

Finally, he smiled and asked, "Why not?"

Why?

Guoguo smiled bitterly in her heart. Actually, she did not feel that she was not qualified for such a position. It was just that she did not want to be too close to the Gu family. The man in front of her was Gu Xinyi's biological brother. She knew that he doted on Gu Xinyi very much in the past. Her relationship with Gu Xinyi was so sensitive now. If there was an additional stroke... Wouldn't it be even more chaotic?

It made her think this way, not because she was afraid of Gu Xinyi. Whether it was in terms of reason or friendship, she was the person who betrayed her. She didn't need to be afraid of anything, she just didn't want to create more trouble for herself.

Before the meeting, she had already hesitated about whether she should resign. After she was questioned by Gu Chengxi about her ability, she argued. But now, it seemed that what she cared about the most had already been resolved. In fact, she did not need to stay in the Hualong anymore.

"Director Gu, it's actually like this, I..."

The phone suddenly rang and interrupted Guoguo's words.

Gu Chengxi raised his hand to signal for her to wait for a moment. His tall and straight body stood up from the sofa and walked steadily towards the big table.

Guoguo saw him directly press the speaker button. A respectful female voice came through the radio, "Director Gu, your sister Miss Gu came over. She said she wants to see you now."

Guoguo's heart sank and the strength that was originally pulling on the corner of her clothes increased a little. Was the heavens playing a game of which to mention which pot and which pot with her?

"Let her in." Gu Chengxi's deep voice was mellow and powerful. As soon as he finished speaking, he pressed the call button.
