Chapter 1146: Chapter 1145: Don’t Let My Dear Be Upset Chapter 1146: Chapter 1145: Don’t Let My Dear Be Upset Xia Xiaoqiao was stunned, completely unprepared for the news that on Gu Shaoting’s first day of work, he would have her transferred.
She couldn’t accept such an arrangent, as everything had been going well—why was there a sudden decision like this?
“Mr. Gu… Mr. Gu, are you joking? Everything has been fine; why make such a sudden decision?” Xia Xiaoqiao’s expression remained unchanged, but the tremble in her voice was evident.
However, in the face of such questioning, Gu Shaoting was unmoved.
He had made up his mind this ti.
No one was more important than his own wife, let alone a junior secretary.
But in front of the young lady, he still wanted to maintain a gentlemanly deanor, and he did not wish to be overly harsh.
“Secretary Xia, this is a normal job transfer, and I hope you will cooperate,” Gu Shaoting stated indifferently.
“But… but I’ve been doing a good job, why the transfer? And if I leave, who will take over my duties as secretary?” Xia Xiaoqiao pressed on.
In her heart, her position was unshakeable, after all, she was Mr. Gu’s capable assistant.
No one understood Mr. Gu better than she did, nor could anyone else handle the complicated work as delicately as she did.
She was very confident; no one could work as hard as she did in this job.
“Secretary Xia, rest assured, when you leave, soone more suitable will take over,” Gu Shaoting frowned slightly; such a large corporation wouldn’t cease to function just because one person was missing.
“Mr. Gu, is it really so difficult just to quietly be a secretary?” Xia Xiaoqiao felt very downhearted; she truly hadn’t expected today to turn out like this.
She had been looking forward to seeing Mr. Gu with great anticipation.
She couldn’t understand how everything at the corporation had been calm these past few days—but now, after he returned from a few days away, everything had changed?
“It’s not difficult. Working in the Administrative Departnt is similar, and honestly, for a girl like you to take on this job really isn’t very appropriate. I failed to consider this initially. After all, I have many trips to make and nurous affairs to handle. The job is complicated, and even a man might find it overwhelming, let alone a young lady like you?”
Gu Shaoting tried to phrase his scripted response as pleasantly as possible.
“Mr. Gu, the fact is I am no less capable than a man,” Xia Xiaoqiao continued to argue.
But this ti, Gu Shaoting was resolute and would not be persuaded. Every ti he thought of Shu Pan’s disappointed, indifferent expression, his heart felt like it was being wrung out, causing him imnse distress.
“Hmm, you are quite talented, and you can shine in any position. I hope you find your new role just as rewarding,” Gu Shaoting glanced at the ti and realized it was getting late; he didn’t want to spend any more ti arguing here.
Xia Xiaoqiao heard his words and knew he didn’t want to continue the discussion.
But she wouldn’t be at peace without a clear answer, so she mustered her courage and asked, “Mr. Gu, I just want to ask one final question before I go, and I hope you can be honest with .”
“What question?” Gu Shaoting looked up at her.
“What exactly is the reason that I need to be transferred?” Xia Xiaoqiao was convinced there was a reason—everything had been fine before, so why the sudden change?
Gu Shaoting hadn’t wanted to ntion the matter, but seeing her relentless pursuit, he finally said, “No one can make my wife upset—that’s the reason. Secretary Xia, I didn’t wish to bring it up, but since you asked, I will reaffirm it. Please respect my wife.”
