“Team Leader Fu asked me to give you this information.” The colleague named Ellie came over with a stack of documents and placed them on Meng Nianyao’s desk. “Before you get off work, organize these documents and hand them in.”
Meng Nianyao subconsciously covered her phone screen and frowned at the pile of documents in front of her. Meng Nianyao only picked up the phone after Ellie left.
“Come to my office.” His voice was very serious.
Meng Nianyao thought that there was something she hadn’t handed over properly when she was an assistant, so she agreed.
When Meng Nianyao stepped out of the elevator, she bumped into her colleagues. When they saw her, they pretended to greet her warmly. “Assistant Meng, you’re here.”
Meng Nianyao nodded and knocked on Gu Wencheng’s office door. The person behind her waited for her to enter. Then, he said disdainfully, “What’s there to be proud of? She’s just a woman who relied on her body to get to the top. She’ll be dumped sooner or later!”
After Meng Nianyao pushed the door open and entered, she found Gu Wencheng on the phone. She walked to the sofa and sat down, flipping through a magazine.
“Okay, give me the results in three days. “Gu Wencheng hung up the phone and looked at Meng Nianyao. His voice softened. “Go and eat lunch.”
Meng Nianyao paused for a moment before she noticed the pile of takeaway boxes on the coffee table in front of her. “You sounded so serious on the phone. I thought you had some unfinished business. “She smiled.
“What work is more important than letting you eat on time?”
The last time Meng Nianyao was hospitalized, Gu Wencheng was really scared, so he kept an eye on Meng Nianyao’s meals, adjusting her diet and nursing her body.
Meng Nianyao also knew that Gu Wencheng had always been concerned about her health, so she didn’t hesitate. She opened the takeaway box and took out the dishes. The fragrance of the food assailed her nose. She had no appetite, but she was suddenly tempted and her stomach growled.
The smile on Gu Wencheng’s face deepened.
After dinner, Meng Nianyao got up and wanted to leave, but Gu Wencheng stopped her. “Are you freeloading?”
“Huh?”
Gu Wencheng grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. Meng Nianyao lost her balance and fell directly onto his lap. The next second, her red lips were kissed.
After a long time, Meng Nianyao finally managed to catch her breath. There was a slight stinging sensation on her lips. She looked at Gu Wencheng with a reproachful look. “The price of eating your meal is too high.”
Gu Wencheng hugged her and buried his head in her neck. “Mrs. Gu, you’re getting cuter and cuter,” he laughed.
Before returning to the office, Meng Nianyao made a trip to the bathroom. As she expected, her lips were bright and moist. She knew what had happened at a glance. She scolded Gu Wencheng in her heart and patted some cold water on her lips to cool down before returning to her work station. She was about to put on a face mask when Fu Yi came over. “You’ve been out for so long. Have you finished the work I asked you to do?” After saying that, his gaze fell on her lips, and his expression could not help but become disdainful.
“No, I haven’t. I’ll give it to you before I get off work,” Meng Nianyao said, wiping away the smile on her face.
Fu Yi’s expression changed. “Don’t make me doubt your professionalism. If you have time to go out and hook up with other people, why don’t you spend more time improving yourself? Otherwise, the result will be too ugly.” After saying that, she turned around and left.
Meng Nianyao looked at her back and smiled. When she looked away, she realized that everyone was looking at her with different expressions. She ignored those gazes and focused on her work.
Although the workload was heavy, Meng Nianyao still sorted out all the information and handed it to Fu Yi before she got off work.
Meng Nianyao’s design department was in charge of a huge entertainment city project. When the next day’s work was assigned, everyone else had proper work to do, but when it was Meng Nianyao’s turn, she was assigned some unimportant chores.
Under normal circumstances, as a new employee, Meng Nianyao wouldn’t find anything odd about this because most new employees started off doing odd jobs. However, the entire project department was newly established, and everyone in the design department was new. The other new employees had work to do, and yet she was the only one doing odd jobs?
Meng Nianyao went straight to Fu Yi.
Fu Yi’s attitude was very obvious. “The job you’re currently in charge of is based on your ability evaluation. What’s there to be unhappy about?”
“I don’t know how you evaluated my ability,” Meng Nianyao said with a straight face..
