Chapter 929: Chapter 928: New Secretary Xia Xiaoqiao
Gu Shaoting thought about it and fell asleep on the couch.
Indeed, for Gu Shaoting, closing a business deal was simple, but understanding a woman’s mind was truly difficult.
The next day
When he woke up, the house was empty, everyone had left.
He opened his bleary eyes, then rubbed his temples. The alcohol had worn off, and now his forehead was throbbing. However, waking up to find that his wife and child had left did not feel good.
He looked down at his clothes and couldn’t help frowning. Without his wife taking care of him, had he really beco so unkempt?
He glanced at the clock on the wall, it was almost 9 o’clock, and he had a high-level eting this morning. He had to hurry.
After a rushed shower and a change into a suit, he looked at himself in the mirror and was quite satisfied—his tall and upright figure, full forehead, deep gaze, and perfect contours. Ti had treated him well, bestowing upon him the mature charm of a man without leaving any marks on his face.
When Gu Shaoting ca out, the driver was already waiting outside. He drove less now because he was usually tired from work and liked to rest his eyes during the ride.
When he returned to the company, no sooner had he sat down than Secretary Xiao Qiao ca in with a cup of coffee, “Mr. Gu, good morning. Here’s so freshly brewed coffee to perk you up.”
Previously, Gu Shaoting was not accustod to having a female secretary and had always had Secretary Zhang take care of things. But now, Secretary Zhang spent most of his ti in France handling local matters.
Last ti, he asked the HR departnt to recruit a secretary. Without prior notification, they ended up recruiting several won.
During the interviews, he happened to be available and personally interviewed them with the manager. Xia Xiaoqiao caught his attention; the other candidates were dressed to the nines as if they were in a beauty contest, but she was dressed very simply, wearing no makeup at all.
During the self-introduction, the others flaunted their charm in front of everyone, not understanding that he was hiring a secretary, not a vase.
Only Xia Xiaoqiao, who didn’t look around and confidently answered the manager’s questions, seed composed and not at all nervous.
Initially, Gu Shaoting felt he was still used to having a male secretary, but since the candidates were unsuitable and the job was quite demanding, he decided to appoint Xia Xiaoqiao temporarily until he found soone appropriate.
Indeed, he wasn’t wrong in his judgnt. Xia Xiaoqiao perford excellently, working diligently and ticulously, and she was observant. As soon as he shifted his gaze, she would intuitively know which docunts he needed.
So far, he was very satisfied. Xia Xiaoqiao’s desk was just by the door of his office. She also knew the rules well enough not to co in randomly.
Most importantly, Xia Xiaoqiao was excellent at making coffee, a skill she had honed while working part-ti in a coffee shop during her studies.
Gu Shaoting ca back to his senses, “Put it on the desk.”
Xia Xiaoqiao placed the coffee cup on his desk, then began to report today’s schedule.
“Mr. Gu, you have an appointnt with Director Lu of Sheng Tian to discuss a contract at about 10:30, and you also need to go out in the afternoon.”
Xia Xiaoqiao reported crisply, her voice sweet but not coquettish, and her pace steady, making her very pleasant to listen to.
“I got it, you go ahead and arrange the later high-level eting,” Gu Shaoting instructed.
“Alright.” Xia Xiaoqiao handled her tasks efficiently and decisively.
Although Xia Xiaoqiao had been Mr. Gu’s secretary for just over a month, everyone had noticed that Mr. Gu was favorably inclined towards her, and she had beco quite the favorite in Mr. Gu’s eyes.
