Chapter 284: Chapter 257: The Loyal Boss Lady
Gu Group.
After Qiao Yuxian and Gu Yanjing left.
The office area of the translation department fell silent again, everyone looked at each other, no one spoke.
After a while, someone hesitated and asked, "Minister Luo, are we really taking time off?"
Only then did everyone regain their senses and looked towards Luo Yin Ning.
Luo Yin Ning said, "President Gu said it, so of course it’s true."
As her words fell, the translation department erupted in great cheers that almost lifted the ceiling.
After cheering, Luo Yin Ning smiled and said, "But remember, the work hasn’t lessened."
The vacation is granted, but the work that needs to be done must be done.
It must be completed on time.
Handle it yourselves.
Everyone understood, but a sudden half-day off was still worth cheering for.
Especially for those tasks that are not very urgent and can be caught up with a little extra effort.
"Got it." Everyone said.
"Alright then." Luo Yin Ning said, "Let’s take the day off."
She finished speaking and walked out with the manager of the medical mechanical department.
Qian Huai followed.
Outside the office area, after sending off the manager of the medical mechanical department, Luo Yin Ning and Qian Huai looked at each other again, and then both exhaled in relief.
They both looked as if they’d just escaped a close call.
Luo Yin Ning laughed, "Fortunately, we didn’t just listen to Nole and directly handle Qiao Yuxian."
Qian Huai touched his heart and said, "My heart is still pounding like a machine gun."
Luo Yin Ning laughed again and after a while said, "She’s been here for over a month now, have you cursed at her?"
Qian Huai’s relieved expression immediately turned into one of panic.
Luo Yin Ning saw his expression and understood everything. She sympathetically patted his shoulder and then went back to her office.
Leaving Qian Huai standing there alone, sweat starting to appear on his forehead, then he took out his phone to message his wife, saying he was about to lose his job.
Meanwhile, in the office area, everyone cleaned up quickly and most were gone.
But Xu Qingqing and Lin You remained at their desks without moving.
He Xin stood beside Zhao Meng’s desk, watching her pack things, and didn’t leave either.
Lin You, who was titled "Bai Xiaosheng," received such explosive news for the first time, and was left stunned. After a while, he looked towards Zhao Meng’s desk, seeing she hadn’t left, he promptly got up and walked over.
Zhao Meng looked at He Xin who was standing silently beside her, then looked at Lin You and said, "If you want to ask something, just ask."
"Isn’t Qiaoqiao’s husband just a pretty boy she needs to support? When did he become Mr. Gu?!" Lin You asked.
"She only said her husband was so handsome that she’d willingly spend money to support him." Zhao Meng said in a lowered voice, "And you dare to call Mr. Gu a...?"
Lin You immediately covered his mouth, looked around, terrified of someone overhearing.
"So... Qiaoqiao is really Miss Gu." Xu Qingqing also came over, "Is she our boss lady?"
Zhao Meng nodded.
Xu Qingqing took a sharp breath.
Oh my, thank goodness she never spoke ill of the Gu Group in front of Qiao Yuxian.
"Does Mr. Gu... not know she’s interning here?" He Xin asked.
Zhao Meng nodded again.
"No wonder. There’s something odd about her." He Xin said.
"Who would believe it if told. I’ve been having lunch every workday for a month with Miss Gu." Lin You said, "That’s Miss Gu! In ancient times, this would be like me, a mere commoner, mingling with the Empress for a month."
Xu Qingqing said, "I think you understated it."
Lin You nodded, "True, true, definitely understated."
"I still feel it’s unbelievable." He Xin looked into the distance, "I was worried about what Qiaoqiao would do today. But... I think if it weren’t for so many people around, Mr. Gu might have dealt with those two."
Xu Qingqing and Lin You together nodded.
Especially when the surveillance and audio were checked, they all felt Gu Yanjing’s murderous aura.
If not for the crowd, Nole and An Zhiyi probably wouldn’t have walked out of the Gu Group.
After a few seconds, Lin You said again, "So... when I talked endlessly about Mr. Gu’s public display of affection at lunch the other day, I was talking about Mr. Gu and Qiaoqiao’s love."
Zhao Meng laughed.
Lin You furiously scratched his head, "The protagonist was right beside me all along. I really am..."
Halfway through his words, Lin You suddenly thought of something, "So when Qiaoqiao mentioned asking Mr. Gu to send more expensive wedding sweets, she wasn’t joking! She really has the say in it!"
Zhao Meng laughed again.
The other three remained immersed in shock, unable to laugh.
"No wonder Special Assistant Su stared at Qiaoqiao last time at the cafeteria entrance." Lin You’s thoughts jumped to Su Qi, "I thought Special Assistant Su was... but now upon thinking, his expression was of shock."
With this thought, everything made sense.
Like... the items in the upstairs supermarket, casually picking one seemed to be Qiao Yuxian’s favorite.
"But Mr. Gu is really too handsome." Xu Qingqing said, "No wonder Qiaoqiao said that."
"Really?" He Xin said, "Did you observe? I didn’t dare. I can’t even remember Mr. Gu’s appearance now, all I can think of is fear."
"I stood far away, so I took a few more glances." Xu Qingqing touched her belly, "With their looks so high, any future kids they have must be really good-looking."
The three surrounded Zhao Meng, constantly sighing...
Meanwhile, at the top floor, Gu Yanjing’s office.
Gu Yanjing sat on the sofa, looking at Qiao Yuxian and Su Qi standing in front of him.
He asked Qiao Yuxian to sit down.
Qiao Yuxian refused to sit, insisting on standing with Su Qi, showing her loyalty.
"Mr. Gu, I..." Su Qi hadn’t finished speaking.
Qiao Yuxian interrupted him, "It’s none of his business, I did everything."
Gu Yanjing looked at her with a "buddy don’t worry, I’ve got your back" vibe.
Su Qi’s face was filled with emotion.
Then he heard Qiao Yuxian say, "Actually, I wanted to tell you early on that I was interning here. But when Special Assistant Su found out, he said you’re too busy with work, and knowing I’m at the company would affect your work."
Su Qi’s expression of emotion was gradually melted and then slowly transformed into one as if one leg stepped into the underworld.
Qiao Yuxian lowered her head, pretended to wipe her tears, sobbed twice, and said, "You know I’m someone who considers the bigger picture, so I listened to Special Assistant Su and hid it from you. I really didn’t mean to."
Su Qi felt as if his soul had left his body.
She said it wouldn’t be his business.
She said the concealment was to protect Mr. Gu and Miss Gu’s relationship.
She said even if exposed, it wouldn’t concern him?
How did things get to this point!!!
Gu Yanjing quietly watched Qiao Yuxian perform and then cooperated, "Then Su Qi should go to the F Continent for a lifetime to mine."
Su Qi staggered back a step.
Qiao Yuxian immediately stopped playing, held up her hand to halt it, "That’s not necessary."
Su Qi looked at Qiao Yuxian.
Seeing her expression, he sighed in relief.
Thank goodness, thank goodness, Miss Gu is still the same Miss Gu, not possessed by aliens.
Qiao Yuxian also glanced at him, giving him a "it’s a small matter, sis can handle it" look, then said to Gu Yanjing, "Actually, this matter truly has nothing to do with Special Assistant Su. I want to talk to you alone."
Gu Yanjing looked at Su Qi and gestured for him to leave first.
Su Qi received the message and nodded, retreating out.
Just as he reached the door, Qiao Yuxian said again, "Special Assistant Su, make sure to check in on your colleagues when you have time."
Su Qi paused, then immediately understood the "colleague" to be Wan Ying.
He said, "Don’t worry, boss lady."
"Okay." Qiao Yuxian responded with a smile.
