Chapter 29: Didn't You Have a Plan?
"What do you an?" ng Nianyao was stunned.
Gu Wencheng didn't explain and waved to call a taxi. They didn't talk along the way. After arriving at Jinxiu Garden, Gu Wencheng went straight to the bedroom, while ng Nianyao took the vegetables to the kitchen. When she finished cooking dinner, Gu Wencheng ca out of the bedroom.
The sll of food wafted through the apartnt. The afterglow of the setting sun shone into the room through the window. The lights on the tall buildings outside lit up one after another. For so reason, it felt like ho.
Gu Wencheng paused for a mont before continuing to walk towards the dining table. ng Nianyao was making the last pork ribs and corn soup when she heard footsteps and shouted, "You can wash your hands and eat now."
Gu Wencheng nodded and washed his hands before sitting down at the dining table. After ng Nianyao sat down, he tasted the stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots. It tasted good.
ng Nianyao poured a bowl of soup for Gu Wencheng and began to eat. She had a small appetite and ate slowly.
"Follow to Gu Corporation tomorrow," Gu Wencheng suddenly spoke.
ng Nianyao remained silent.
Gu Wencheng took a sip of the soup.
ng Nianyao nodded and said, "Got it."
The next morning, ng Nianyao followed Gu Wencheng to Gu Corporation and was introduced to Ping Yang. Ping Yang showed her around and changed the way she addressed her, saying, "Assistant ng, this is your workstation. Familiarize yourself with the environnt first. I'll send you a work docunt later."
"Alright," ng Nianyao nodded. She had worked in small-scale private companies during her internship but had never been in a company as big as Gu Corporation. She had stayed up late the previous night researching the company and had so understanding of its size.
The company's employee handbook was on her desk. ng Nianyao picked it up and read it carefully. As she finished reading, she realized many people were looking at her.
ng Nianyao wasn't skilled in interpersonal relationships, having been a housewife since marrying ng Haotian. Nevertheless, she could sense the disdain these people had for her.
She frowned, put the handbook aside, and turned on her computer.
Half an hour later, everyone headed to the conference room. No one called ng Nianyao, and she didn't know whether to follow.
When Ping Yang ca out of the office and saw ng Nianyao still at her desk, she asked in surprise, "Assistant ng, why didn't you go to the eting room? There's a regular Monday morning eting. Didn't anyone tell you?" Ping Yang realized that ng Nianyao was being isolated by the other employees. She had seen many won compete for Gu Wencheng's attention but never faced this situation.
Ping Yang looked around and whispered to ng Nianyao, "I should have handled this better. Don't stoop to their level, Lady Boss. I'll explain the company's processes and the eting details later. Let's go to the eting now."
ng Nianyao nodded, and Ping Yang whispered, "Have confidence, Lady Boss. You are the lady boss. If they bully you, rember you can talk to the boss."
ng Nianyao was speechless.
Fortunately, there were many people in suits and ties at the elevator entrance. Ping Yang didn't pay much attention to ng Nianyao and greeted them with a smile.
When the leader saw ng Nianyao, he smiled and asked, "And who is this?"
"President Gu recently hired a personal assistant," explained Ping Yang.
"A temporary position?" The person looked puzzled.
"The notice from the HR departnt just ca out."
Without further questions, the person entered the eting room. ng Nianyao was new and unsure of her role. After distributing coffee and eting materials, she discreetly left the eting room, seeing that no one was paying attention to her. She discovered her hands were stained with ink but couldn't clean them with a wet tissue. As she got up to go to the bathroom, she overheard a conversation inside.
"Hey, what do you think is the relationship between ng Nianyao and President Gu?"
"What relationship? What relationship could there be? It was just fun bought with money. When they get tired of playing in bed, there will be no relationship!"
