Qin Hao wheeled Lin Che in and said to her, "Madam, wait for a moment. Sir is handling some work and will be out with you in a minute."
"Oh, no problem, no problem. Go do your own things, Assistant Qin. I'll just be here taking a look."
This was Lin Che's first time at Gu Jingze's workplace, so she had to look all around.
The entire floor was Gu Jingze's office. There was a secretarial room outside where dozens of secretaries carried out their duties. All of them were looking curiously at Lin Che.
Inside, Gu Jingze was alone in his office. The monochromatic interior made it look very professional and modern.
When Lin Che entered, Gu Jingze was on the phone. He saw Lin Che and gestured for her to take a seat. Lin Che quickly nodded her head and sat at a side. Qin Hao hurriedly took some books, a computer, and some other things to keep her occupied.
After he left, Lin Che leaned into her seat and looked at Gu Jingze behind his desk. He spoke in English, Japanese, Russian and various other languages over the phone. His voice was steady and he spoke slowly. His expression was sometimes relaxed and sometimes heavy.
She could tell that his work was extremely busy and cumbersome.
From time to time, he would stand up and stand at the full-length window. With one hand on his office chair, he would look out the window. His tall and straight figure became more prominent against the background of skyscrapers.
Lin Che tilted her head as she looked and thought about that saying. A serious man was the most handsome.
She thought that this man really knew everything and was very capable. He knew so many languages and was very handsome. He even looked good when he was angry. He was simply a devil.
When Gu Jingze turned to look, he saw Lin Che staring at him.
Looking at her silly smile, Gu Jingze thought that it was so interesting. He thought that this woman was really boy-crazy.
But when women became boy-crazy, it normally made people feel that it was very vulgar and boring. There were always plenty of women staring at him and he was always disturbed by it. But looking at Lin Che like this, he actually didn't feel disturbed at all. Instead, he felt a sense of satisfaction from being worshipped by her.
Anyway, there was no sense of disgust at all. He had gotten used to her superficiality a long time ago. It was probably because she was pretty, to begin with, so even if she had a boy-crazy expression, she was still pretty. Or perhaps, he simply liked the way she looked at him. It made him feel her undisguised, bare-naked admiration towards him.
She never hid her true self. Perhaps that was why nobody found her detestable.
Smiling, he looked at her and said, "Hey, your saliva is almost touching the desk."
Lin Che panicked and came back to her senses. She quickly reached up to wipe the corners of her mouth.
There was nothing.
"Bastard! There's no saliva. If there really was, I'd definitely spit it right into your mouth. Hmph."
Gu Jingze's face darkened.
However, imagining that disgusting action of spitting saliva into his mouth didn't disgust him at all.
It was no big deal.
It was not like he never tasted it.
He had tasted it before. It was fragrant, delicious, and made him feel good.
He tilted his head and supported his chin with one hand. He looked at her, "Come, try and spit..."
Since when was Gu Jingze's tolerance so high...
Just then, Qin Hao came in with some news.
"President Gu..."
Gu Jingze's eyes looked up with some threat in them.
"Pre-... President Gu..." Qin Hao immediately realized that it might not have been the time for him to enter...
He should have knocked.
But it was rather urgent.
"President Gu, outside..."
"Assistant Qin, do you need to revise your speech abilities again?" Gu Jingze stood behind his desk and faced Qin Hao.
Qin Hao immediately said, "Alright, President Gu. Miss Mo is outside, she says that it's important that she needs to meet you."
Mo Huiling?
Gu Jingze's face sank and his eyes inadvertently shifted to Lin Che.
Lin Che looked up and stared back at Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze stared at Qin Hao with a darkened face.
Qin Hao looked completely innocent.
But he disliked that he was slow. It made him speak out of gratitude...
Lin Che spoke at the side, "Isn't it something important? Why not meet her?"
Gu Jingze's lips moved and he looked at Qin Hao. His expression seemed to say that he disliked Qin Hao even more. After a long time, he finally moved his hands.
Qin Hao quickly went out. The person outside was also not one to trigger.
Not long after he went out, Mo Huiling's voice could be heard.
"Jingze, you're finally willing to see me."
And Qin Hao's warning, which was too late, "Miss Mo, the one with President Gu in his office is... ?"
Mo Huiling pushed the door open. Without needing Qin Hao's reminder, she already saw Lin Che seated on the sofa.
Her eyes paused and then intensified. She smiled coldly and glanced at Lin Che with disdain.
But underneath her calm expression, she was raging. Nothing could stop it.
Gu Jingze actually brought Lin Che to the company...
He usually separated personal and work matters. Now, he actually brought Lin Che to his workplace.
She initially thought that coming to Gu Jingze's company would be the safest place. Gu Jingze would be here every day. He was so dedicated and responsible, and he handled everything personally.
So she would definitely be able to see Gu Jingze if she came here. But she did not expect to meet this clingy woman here. What a ghost!
Mo Huiling looked at Gu Jingze and gritted her teeth. She planned to personally get rid of this woman herself one day, so she endured it and said to Gu Jingze, "I have something important that I want to talk to you about. Can we?"
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che and back at her, "Can't we talk here?"
Mo Huiling shook her head sorrowfully, "It's about us. Are you sure you want to talk about it here?"
Something about just them?
Gu Jingze hesitated. He looked at Mo Huiling earnestly staring back, her weak eyes helplessly looking at him.
Gu Jingze took a deep breath and thought that this would be the last time. Since she came here herself, there was nothing else he could say.
Thus, he nodded his head.
Mo Huiling immediately smiled happily but did not forget to maintain her meek expression. She looked gratefully at Gu Jingze.
Gu Jingze walked to Lin Che's side, "We'll still go out for dinner later. I'll be back soon."
Lin Che smiled and nodded, "Go ahead. It's alright."
Gu Jingze and Mo Huiling walked out together.
This time, Gu Jingze was not going to fall into her trap and go to a place she wanted to go to. Mo Huiling also knew about the increased security just in case too. Thus, she only asked, "Jingze, do you really want to break up with me for good? Actually, it's no big deal. If you want to break up, we'll break up. I just wanted to talk about the problem of our breakup. I've been with you for so long and I don't want you to simply break up with me over such casual words. You can't just brush me off like that. I'm not going to take you to any place, so I figured you wouldn't want to follow me either. Will the café downstairs suffice? This is your territory. What else can I do to you?"
Gu Jingze listened, stared at her for a while, and nodded.
The main thing she wanted to talk about was their breakup. He thought that if they could settle this problem on a good note, it would be beneficial too.
