C12 First Time He Was Scolded by Gussie

Could it be that Gourmet's wife ran off with someone else?

Just as this thought flashed through Xia Lan's mind, she heard a slightly angry warning: "Put away this thought in your mind."

"I'm not thinking of anything." Xia Lan did not dare to look down at him because of her guilty excuse. His eyes were too sharp, it was as if he could see through everything.

Gu Xi Jue swept a glance at her, his dark eyes couldn't help but cause her breathing to speed up.

Xia Lan innocently pulled out a smile, trying to resolve the current predicament. Unexpectedly, Gu Xi Jue said without giving face, "Don't laugh, it's too ugly."

Xia Lan lowered her head and unwillingly scolded the man with the venomous tongue tens of times.

When he arrived at the company, it was at the peak of working time. Although Gu Xi Jue was the president of the group, he had never had any privileges.

Although he did not have any privileges, as long as they saw Gu Xi Jue standing in front of the elevator, everyone knew that they were standing behind him. When the elevator reached, he would always be the first one to go up, and as the CEO Secretary, no one dared to snatch a seat with Xia Lan.

After the two of them went up, the other staff members rushed in. Within a few seconds, the elevator was full of people.

The staff who were rushing over from behind did not know that their Gourmet was inside, seeing that they were about to be late, they could only push them over: "Sorry, I just squeezed in, and will be late."

When the people outside squeezed together, the people within unknowingly fled backwards. Xia Lan was pushed to the point where she couldn't retreat at all, and it was inevitable for their bodies to touch in such a narrow space …

Out of the corner of his eyes, Gu Xi Jue saw that he had been squeezed to the point that his neck had shrunk. He quietly moved his feet and took a step towards her, his large body separating her from his male colleagues in front of him and forming an invisible protection posture.

His movements were very natural and coherent, and perhaps others might not notice, but Xia Lan saw it.

She slightly raised her eyes, just in time to meet Gu Xi Jue's gaze. In that instant, like a flint, Angel's small face flushed red and she lowered her head silently.

When she lowered her head, her forehead just happened to be pressed against Gu Xi Jue's chest. The warm feeling made her face feel even hotter, and the sound of his powerful heartbeat just reached her ears.

She rarely had such close contact with men. Her mind was a mess. After an unknown period of time, a teasing voice came from above her head, "How much longer do I have to wait?"

Xia Lan raised her head with a 'whoosh', and realized that the two of them were the only ones left in the elevator. She suddenly felt very nervous, and didn't even know how to place her hands and feet.

Gu Xi Jue's black eyes swept across the shy woman. At this moment, the elevator opened and he walked out, slowly saying, "What's there to be shy about, it's not like he had never leaned on one before."

Only Xia Lan was left standing there in a daze. Since when?

Normally, Gu Xi Jue would be very shameless, and he would even tease Xia Lan a little, but when he was working, he was very serious, and even a bit strict.

Xia Lan, who had just taken over the job, was still not familiar with some of the places, and some mistakes were unavoidable. For example, in the afternoon when she went to the cooperative company's meeting time, she left a very important document in her office.

When Gu Xi Jue asked her for the documents, she couldn't find it.

"What's going on?" Gu Xi Jue's black eyes were filled with a layer of frost.

After searching through all the folders, Xia Lan became anxious, to the point that she was about to cry. She looked at Gu Xi Jue helplessly: "I seem to have left my documents on the desk."

Gu Xi Jue frowned, he glared with his cold eyes and asked angrily: "If you can't do such a small thing well, I am overestimating your ability, if you are not able to do it, leave immediately."

Xia Lan knew that she had done something wrong, even though she was scolded, she did not refute. Instead, she apologized to the other company's Chairman and General Manager with an extremely good attitude.

"What are you still standing here for? Hurry up and go back to look for him!" Gu Xi Jue's eyes darkened, and roared at the woman who kept apologizing and nodding her head.

Gu Xi Jue's low and cold voice frightened Xia Lan so much that she trembled. She stared at him blankly for a few seconds before regaining her senses, stupidly letting out a "Oh". Then, she turned around and ran, even forgetting to take the bag on the chair.

The moment she turned around, Gu Xi Jue's brows furrowed even tighter, because when she turned her head, the tears in his eyes were flung out by her turning actions.

That teardrop seemed to be moving slowly in front of him. It was very slow and clear.

In that second, his heart felt like it had been stung, and he thought — it must be a male chauvinist mentality, and it was the worst thing that could happen to a woman.

He drove here himself, and he had the car keys and key here. She didn't even bring her bag with her, so how could she take a taxi back to the company?

He thought for a moment, then said to the president and general manager of the company, "Today is our company's negligence. Mr. Zhang is free next week, let's meet again."

The words that came out of his mouth seemed to be asking for the other party's opinion, but in the end, it was just a statement, just missing an exclamation mark.

The reason the other company chose to cooperate with Yattai Group was naturally because they were subdued by Yattai Group's scale and Gu Xi Jue's methods of managing the company. Therefore, when Gu Xi Jue came out like this, they had no objections.

"Okay, let's continue with today's meeting next Tuesday." Zhang Dong was a man in his fifties. He had always admired Gu Xi Jue who was young and capable, so he did not make things difficult for him.

After being polite for a while, Gu Xi Jue picked up the woman's bag from the chair and was about to turn around, but was stopped by Zhang Dong: "Little Gu, do you still remember the party I hosted for my daughter last month? When I was playing golf with your dad, he said you grew up in Mayor A, and I don't know much about this side of town, and my daughter just came home and didn't like to hang out with an old man like me, you see — you're about the same age, or... Could I trouble you to show my daughter around? "

When he mentioned the party last month, Gu Xi Jue unconsciously frowned. He was tricked by his mother, how could he not remember?

His mother thought that he had gone crazy after getting married. Seems like Zhang Dong and his father and mother had already reached some sort of agreement.

He could only vaguely say, "If you have the time, it would be my greatest pleasure."

He was being so casual, causing Zhang Dong to be extremely happy, he started to calculate the date in his heart. At the last party, it seemed like his darling daughter had a pretty good impression of Gu Xi Jue.

After settling this issue, Gu Xi Jue turned around and left with the woman's purse in her hand. She was so anxious that she seemed to be walking in the wind.
