Looking at the question marks from Gu Jiachen, the little loli with long black hair turned her head away gleefully. “Ah~ Who’s the clown now? Embarrassed, aren’t you?”
“One basic attack from me, and my archenemy CEO immediately uses his perverted ultimate move. Is that all you’ve got? It has no killing power at all, hoo hoo~”
[Gu Jiachen: You seem really free, little rabbit~]
[Gu Jiachen: If you’re that free, why not come to my office now? There’s a reward~]
[Gu Jiachen: Hmm, should I set a time limit? If you can’t make it in half an hour, then… you’ll have to receive some strange punishment or something~]
[Gu Jiachen: If you don’t come, I’ll send someone to tie you up.]
“Ah, ah—!” Zhou Ruoyu, startled, quickly exported the chat history with Gu Jiachen, saving it. Must save it. This is all criminal evidence to use against her archenemy in the future.
“Wuu~ Such a blatant criminal declaration. Could you please restrain yourself a bit, Gu Jiachen! Hoo…”
After saving, Zhou Ruoyu held her phone and trembled, starting to regret why she had to provoke him earlier, leaving herself in such a mess. What should she do? Was it better to go or not? It seemed she had to go. Could she still struggle a bit? She couldn’t just skip work for no reason…
[Zhou Ruoyu: I… I have to work, I’m not that free… Someone is watching me.]
[Gu Jiachen: Hmm?]
[Gu Jiachen: Oh, right… That colleague who backstabbed you, did she cause you trouble today, little rabbit?]
[Zhou Ruoyu: She did… She tried to pick on me during the award evaluation, but in the end I still got first prize~ Hehe, I also proved that she was the one who stole my design. Just now, a colleague said she had already come back to pack her things, looking like she was preparing to resign and run away.]
[Gu Jiachen: Hmm? So efficient? Little rabbit, you solved it yourself~?]
The CEO on the other side of the screen was somewhat surprised. He hadn’t even done much yet, just had someone hint to the judges to give little rabbit an award, thinking to let her save face first. Who would have thought… little rabbit would directly counter-kill?
And first prize at that… It seemed her work was good enough to convince others. He hadn’t specified what award to give, so getting first prize directly was a bit over the top~
[Gu Jiachen: Well done~ Hmph hmph, so now, how do you feel? The person who bullied you ran away in disgrace, feeling better, aren’t you?]
[Zhou Ruoyu: Ah… Actually, it’s not that great. How should I put it… I think… maybe this isn’t important. Although I’m happy she’s gone, what I really want… is a friend…]
[Zhou Ruoyu: So, from the moment she backstabbed me, there was no good outcome for me. No matter how happy I am to get revenge in the end, it’s not really what I want…]
After silently typing that message and clicking send, the little loli with long black hair quietly turned her head away, looking at the cold and empty workspace and the mist outside the window, unable to help letting out a long sigh.
Thinking this, she actually felt a bit melancholy… Hoo, speaking of which, she didn’t seem to have much right to blame Ling Bo. After all, wasn’t she herself stealing the information Gu Jiachen gave her and selling it to Long Yu’s boss…
Calling it corporate espionage, wasn’t that also a form of backstabbing? Although he had some grudge against her and was quite harsh, after experiencing this and feeling what it’s like to be backstabbed, Zhou Ruoyu couldn’t help but feel a tormenting sense of guilt.
What should she do? Zhou Ruoyu rested her chin on her hand, at a loss. Thinking carefully, was Gu Jiachen bad or good to her? Bad meant he was training her; good meant… he was quite generous with money, and whenever she had trouble, he would gently help her and care about her…
And there was one big problem: these impressions of good and bad were all experienced as a girl. But… was she really a girl? She didn’t want these feelings, right? Right?
Ahhhh! After a while, the little loli with long black hair irritably scratched her hair. Forget it, she wouldn’t think about it. It was boring anyway, and staying here was like being in jail, nothing to do. She might as well just go to Gu Jiachen’s office to play!
Hmm… As for what to play and how, she… she wouldn’t decide that.
So, soon, the little loli with long black hair, feeling numb and wanting some excitement, quietly turned her head again and then silently sent a message on WeChat.
[Zhou Ruoyu: I don’t want to stay here anymore. I’ll come over in a bit…]
[Zhou Ruoyu: You’re in the office, right? You don’t need to pick me up. I’ll take a taxi myself.]
[Gu Jiachen: Hmm?]
The CEO on the other end of the phone looked at the girl’s new message, blinked in confusion for a moment, then a smile couldn’t help but appear at the corner of his mouth. He replied somewhat regretfully:
[Gu Jiachen: Little rabbit is so proactive today?]
[Gu Jiachen: Ah, what a pity. I’m not in the office right now. I was just teasing you earlier.]
[Gu Jiachen: I’m not at the company today, a bit busy. So sorry, I’ll find little rabbit to play together tomorrow~]
[Zhou Ruoyu: …]
[Zhou Ruoyu: No time tomorrow!]
Tsk! The girl with long black hair irritably pushed her phone aside, then silently turned on her computer, pouting as she started working seriously.
She finally took the initiative to find that Gu guy, but he turned her down. She was kissing ass and getting the cold shoulder. Ahhh… Damn it!
But now that she thought about it, it was strange. That archenemy, a big boss… not in the company on a Monday? What was he up to? Hmm… After racking her brain, the little loli with long black hair had only one guess… That’s right, he must have gone to be with his other sugar babies. Yes, that’s it! Damn it!
Ah… Did he make little rabbit angry? Gu Jiachen thought about it. It seemed little rabbit was throwing a little tantrum. Pfft… But it didn’t matter. As long as she took the initiative to come find him once, there would naturally be a second time. This rejection would instead make little rabbit unable to suppress that urge? It seemed the taming progress was going quite smoothly~
Ahem, but he wasn’t deliberately refusing little rabbit. Today, Gu Jiachen was really rarely not at work. Instead, he was personally in action, preparing a lot of things with his assistant, Xiao Lin.
“Is everything ready?” Gu Jiachen turned around and asked Xiao Lin. The other nodded vigorously while carrying a suitcase and said:
“Everything is ready! Don’t worry, Boss Gu, this is definitely enough for the young lady for one semester~”
As soon as he finished speaking, speak of the devil and he appears. Gu Xue, with a gloomy expression, slowly pushed open the door and walked into the room.
