Chapter 731: Not Easy to Get Along With

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon approaching, Gu Zi could fully observe her. She was adorned in a traditional hand-pressed wave hairstyle, dressed elegantly, and exuded a classical aura. With a fountain pen in hand, she gracefully swept across the paper, leaving behind rows of exquisite foreign characters. Gu Zi wondered if the lady had noticed her arrival, but she was reminded of Guan Xin’s warning.

Director Jiang was deeply engrossed in her work and had a peculiar quirk; she required absolute silence, especially when she was working. Any noise was deed a disturbance.

Therefore, Gu Zi knew she couldn’t directly approach and greet her. However, it was her first day at work, and not greeting her imdiate superior seed inappropriate.

She wasn’t worried, though. She quietly took a seat at her desk and noticed the files Director Jiang had left on the table. Gu Zi opened them and imdiately understood that these were the tasks she needed to translate and edit. As she looked at the tasks, she noticed a blank sheet of paper next to them. An idea struck her, and she began to write on the paper…

After collecting her tasks, Gu Zi left the small office area of the foreign language departnt and joined the others for a eting. Within half an hour, she had integrated well into the team. Everyone was pleased with their new colleague, Gu Zi. After all, she was not only beautiful but also competent and gracious, making her impossible not to like.

After spending so ti with them, Gu Zi felt that the people at the newspaper were quite nice. Although Director Jiang had so peculiar habits, she didn’t seem like a troublemaker, which was a good thing. Perhaps her future work wouldn’t be too challenging.

Her mission for the day at the newspaper was now complete, and she could go ho to translate the manuscripts. As Gu Zi was packing up, everyone seed to have finished organizing their materials and started chatting. An older female colleague said, “Reporter Wu just left. If he hadn’t, I would have liked to introduce him to Gu Zi. They seem like a good match.”

“Reporter Wu is currently a journalist in our newspaper’s editorial departnt. He studied abroad and won many awards during his studies. The newspaper has high hopes for him. Besides his outstanding personal abilities, he also cos from a good family background. Many young ladies in the newspaper want to partner with Reporter Wu. It’s a pity, Gu Zi, that you ca on an unfortunate day.”

Gu Zi found herself cornered by the topic at hand. She decided to be forthright, “Ladies and gentlen, I forgot to ntion earlier, I am already married and have three children. Perhaps, Reporter Wu would be better suited with an unmarried girl. Let’s not joke about this anymore.”

Upon hearing Gu Zi’s words, the person who suggested the idea felt sowhat embarrassed and closed their mouth. At the sa ti, they felt a pang of regret that such a wonderful girl was already married. However, the younger colleagues seed to relax, and Gu Zi understood why. She guessed that among the unmarried girls in the newspaper office, there were quite a few who had a soft spot for Wu Hao.

All in all, this Wu Hao was not a bad catch. However, to Gu Zi, he seed rather foolish, and it was hard to put into words. It was better for her to clarify her marital status sooner rather than later, to avoid any further matchmaking attempts.

As Gu Zi prepared to leave, a commotion ca from outside. A bald man in his forties walked in, followed by two young people. The other colleagues greeted him in unison, “Director Zhao, thank you for the hard work!”

The colleague standing next to Gu Zi also greeted him, then introduced him to her, “Gu Zi, this is Director Zhao from our newspaper’s printing departnt. You should greet him, it won’t do you any harm.”

Thinking that she should greet the leader of another departnt, Gu Zi stepped forward, “Hello, Director Zhao. I’m Gu Zi, the new foreign language editor.”

Director Zhao didn’t look at Gu Zi directly. He just glanced at the employee badge in front of her, responded indifferently, and then walked away. Gu Zi, with her keen senses, felt that Director Zhao had sharp eyes and didn’t seem easy to get along with. The way everyone else treated him confird her suspicions.

Moreover, when she greeted him just now, Gu Zi felt that his expression was strange, as if he was suppressing so dissatisfaction. But since he didn’t make it clear, Gu Zi had no choice but to pretend she didn’t notice and remained silent. Otherwise, it would seem like she was looking for trouble.

However, Gu Zi still felt a vague unease in her heart, as if sothing was about to happen. And sure enough, her premonition ca true. Just a few steps after he walked out, Director Zhao suddenly stopped, turned around, and stared directly at Gu Zi.
