He would only be particularly patient and gentle with Chenxing and not to anyone else.
anwhile, Chenxing, after drinking half a cup of milk, curiously asked, "What are you going to do in Japan? Vacation? Why didn’t you tell in advance? If I take another leave of absence, my advisor will be upset with ."
"It doesn’t matter if you fail a course, as long as you learn what I teach you."
Chenxing pouted, indifferent to his words. She didn’t want to fail her courses.
She sat by the window, her eyes gazing out at the spotless sky, perhaps due to the high altitude, "It’s so beautiful."
"Do you get airsick?"
"No, I’ve never gotten airsick when I flew before." Chenxing pulled the blanket higher around her, reaching out her long fingers to grab the bread from the tray. However, Gu Shaocheng slapped her arm, "Brush your teeth first. Who said you can eat without brushing your teeth?"
But she just had so milk. Chenxing didn’t dare to argue with him in person. Under his forceful gaze that brooked no laziness, she reluctantly got up to groom herself in the restroom. She happened to notice Secretary E sitting nearby with red eyes.
"What’s wrong?"
Chenxing was curious. She hadn’t noticed the interaction between Gu Shaocheng and Secretary E just now, so she didn’t know why she was crying.
"I’m fine, Miss Ye." Secretary E hurriedly composed herself, turning back into the professional woman she usually was.
"Oh, are you feeling unwell? Would you like to ntion it to Shaocheng?"
"No, no, Miss Ye, please don’t ntion it to President Gu." Otherwise, she would be in trouble again.
She looked at Chenxing, genuinely envious. Why is it that so won can be so admired without half their effort, while others have to fight hard in their careers just to survive?
"Miss Ye, don’t you like soy milk?" she wondered, as this was the only reason she could think of.
Chenxing was taken aback, then nodded, "I’m allergic to soy milk."
Secretary E suddenly realized and apologetically said to Chenxing, "Miss Ye, you go ahead. Please don’t say anything to the president, or I’ll lose my job."
"Oh, if you’re not feeling well, rember to speak up. Don’t hold it in. I’ll bring it up with Shaocheng. He should give you so ti off."
After expressing her concern, Chenxing returned to Gu Shaocheng’s side, savoring her breakfast.
Whenever she had nothing to do, she would secretly admire Gu Shaocheng.
They say a man is most attractive when he is serious about his work, and he had already succeeded in utterly captivating her. Look at him reading docunts with his glasses on, quite the image of a successful and composed businessman.
Now it’s already late autumn, and a chill filled the air as soon as they got off the plane.
Gu Shaocheng took off his jacket and put it around her, lifted her into the car, and checked them directly into a hotel. He made sure she was comfortable and encouraged her to take a bath and go back to sleep. He, on the other hand, left the hotel and was ushered away by a group of people.
Chenxing was awakened by a knock on the door. A Japanese man was outside, speaking fluent Chinese.
"Are you looking for Gu Shaocheng?" Chenxing rubbed her fluffy eyes.
A man in black respectfully asked if Gu Shaocheng was in.
"He’s not here and I don’t know where he is right now." Upon seeing the man in black frown at her words, Chenxing kindly offered, "Do you have urgent business with him? I can call him if you want."
"That’d be very helpful, miss." The man in black remained respectful.
