Chapter 249: Chapter 249: Zhong Xiaoyi Participates in a Love Reality Show
Gu Hanchen received the ssage sent by Xiao Yi and as he looked at the text on his phone screen, he pressed the voice input button and said, “What the hell? You’re the little sister I’ve watched grow up, how could I possibly do anything so beastly?”
“I’ll have the HR departnt fire him right away. Since Huang Hui moved to the overseas departnt, the staff in the administrative departnt have beco more and more outrageous. Xu Caiqin is truly unreliable, I’ll replace her soon.”
When Xiao Yi heard the voice ssage from Gu Hanchen, she tapped to listen and upon hearing the words ‘little sister’, she lowered her head in desolation.
…
The weather was oppressively hot.
After Yuan Xi and Shiyan had dinner at the Chu Family’s ho, they were planning to head back to City A.
After seeing the appointnt of the new director of the administrative departnt in an internal email at the computer company, Yuan Xi called Gu Hanchen, “Why change the director of the administrative departnt again?”
Gu Hanchen replied, “You still have the nerve to ask? You took Huang Hui away, and the managent inside the administrative departnt has been getting more and more chaotic.”
Yuan Xi said, “It’s inevitable that managent gets chaotic as a company grows, but it’s fixable. The administrative departnt needs so fresh blood too. Have the director of HR contact a headhunting firm, administrative managent is especially important for Mi Chen.”
Gu Hanchen felt overwheld, “Yuan Xi, I really can’t bear to let you go! Mi Chen headquarters just can’t function without you. Look, Jiangcheng and City A aren’t far apart, can’t you stay in Jiangcheng from Monday to Wednesday and go back to City A from Thursday to Sunday?”
After Yuan Xi went to City A, Gu Hanchen gradually realized how crucial Yuan Xi was for Mi Chen’s managent.
Shiyan, standing next to Yuan Xi, heard Gu Hanchen’s words, frowned slightly, and disconnected the call from Yuan Xi’s hand.
Yuan Xi looked at Shiyan and chuckled lightly, “Gu Hanchen does have so shortcomings in managent.”
Shiyan said, “That’s why you should contact the headhunting firm to find several deputy directors instead of still fantasizing about you returning to headquarters to continue being his Secretary Yuan.”
Yuan Xi chuckled softly and said, “Hmm.”
As dusk fell.
Yan Ke was overlooking the rainy night view of Jiangcheng CBD from Jiang Se Restaurant.
Jiang Se is a high-end French restaurant, much loved by the elite of Jiang City, and a popular place for the elite to dine and date.
Yan Ke saw Gu Hanchen entering the front door in a wheelchair, she stood up and went over to push his wheelchair, saying, “Hanchen.”
Gu Hanchen handed the flowers he held to Yan Ke, “My secretary picked these for you, I hope you like them.”
Seeing the fresh flowers handed to her by Gu Hanchen, Yan Ke sniffed them gently and smiled lightly, “I like them, thank you.”
Yan Ke noticed a box among the flowers, and looking at the box, she asked, “Is this box for ?”
Gu Hanchen nodded lightly, “Yes.”
Yan Ke opened the jewelry box and seeing the diamond necklace inside, she exclaid in surprise, “Hanchen, this is far too precious, it’s from their high-end collection, a diamond necklace starting at seven figures.”
Gu Hanchen smiled lightly at Yan Ke, “Diamonds suit beauties, you deserve it.”
“Yan Ke, I’m not one to beat around the bush, so I’ll just say it straight, you probably already know about our parents arranging this match-making session?”
Yan Ke looked at the necklace before her and nodded, “Hmm.”
Gu Hanchen continued, “I think you’re pretty good, how about we get married?”
Yan Ke, surprised, said, “So sudden?”
Gu Hanchen drinking his orange juice said, “We’ll have to get married soday, you’re beautiful and I don’t dislike you, our families are well-matched, and I don’t want to bother looking for another marriage partner.”
Yan Ke, not expecting Gu Hanchen to be so straightforward and eager, said, “Hanchen, could you give three days to think about it?”
Gu Hanchen stated, “After we get married, I’ll need you to get pregnant as soon as possible, at the latest by the end of next year.”
“Are you in such a hurry?”
Yan Ke was stunned; she had just entered the entertainnt circle…
Naturally, marrying Gu Hanchen was what Yan Ke hoped for.
After all, among the established wealthy families of Jiang City, the group heirs suitable for her age had steadily been getting married.
Si Chen and Chu Lin, one married and one engaged; now all the parents of Jiang City’s golden girls had their eyes on Gu Hanchen, and Yan Ke’s parents were no exception, eyeing him as a golden catch.
But Yan Ke felt that having just entered the entertainnt industry, with her career just beginning, getting married and having children would definitely affect her career.
Gu Hanchen said, “Yes, I am indeed in a hurry. If you feel that it would affect your career, then I will simply find soone else…”
Hearing these words from Gu Hanchen left Yan Ke feeling stifled inside. What did he an by finding soone else?
Yan Ke was angry despite understanding her family circumstances. Her family was in real estate, many projects had collapsed, and their financial flow was insufficient; otherwise, she wouldn’t have entered the entertainnt circle instead of enjoying her life as a rich heiress.
Externally, Yan Ke claid it was just for fun, that if she couldn’t carve a niche for herself in the entertainnt circle, she would return to inherit her family business. But unlike so heiresses who were purely dabbling for fun, she wouldn’t be cramming her schedule with appointnts like this.
Despite her anger, Yan Ke could only grit her teeth and gave Gu Hanchen a faint smile: “Give three days to think about it.”
Gu Hanchen replied, “Alright!”

Zhong Xiaoyi was in her small bedroom, listening to songs one after another, drinking glass after glass of red wine.
Zhong Xiaoyi heard a knock from outside and got up to open the door; it was Special Assistant Wang, “Special Assistant Wang.”
“Xiao Yi, Mr. Gu is looking for you.”
Zhong Xiaoyi pursed her lips and went to Gu Hanchen’s room.
As soon as Gu Hanchen saw Zhong Xiaoyi, he slled the strong scent of alcohol on her: “How much have you been drinking? What are you doing drinking at such a young age?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “I haven’t drunk much.”
“Do you have sothing worrying you?” asked Gu Hanchen.
Zhong Xiaoyi shook her head: “No, Mr. Gu, did you need sothing?”
Gu Hanchen said, “Nothing really.”
Zhong Xiaoyi was frustrated; why did he call her over if it was nothing?
Zhong Xiaoyi’s phone rang, and she looked at the contact on the screen – it was a call from a senior in the dance community at Jiang University.
“Xiao Yi, are you still in Jiang City? Do you have any ti this month? I need a favor from you.”
Zhong Xiaoyi replied, “Senior, I have to work this month. What do you need? Just tell .”
Gu Hanchen raised an eyebrow, leaning closer to listen to the phone.
Seeing that Gu Hanchen wanted to eavesdrop, Zhong Xiaoyi simply pressed the speakerphone button.
“Xiao Yi, here’s the thing, I have a live reality romance show. Originally, they wanted , but I suddenly received an offer to perform abroad, which I value more. The romance show starts shooting the day after tomorrow, and Jiang University’s tag of a ‘classical dancing beauty scholar’ has already been sent out. You’re the most suitable one around, and you haven’t been in love yet, right? Why not give it a try? It doesn’t matter if you don’t find real love on the show; are you interested?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Senior? You want to participate in a romance show?”
“The male guests participating this ti are all quite impressive and handso. If it weren’t for my work conflict, I would definitely go. Xiao Yi, I think you should try it…”
Gu Hanchen chuckled, “How can you be a senior like that? Sending a young girl who just graduated to participate in a romance show, are you not afraid of breaking the law?”
“Xiao Yi, who is this man? Aren’t you about to turn 23? Oh right, happy early birthday. You’re already three years beyond the legal marriage age, even if you married and had kids early, your child would nearly be starting kindergarten by now. What law are you breaking by dating?”
