To look deeply into
Chapter 1
A few years ago, Ming Yu Group focused on real estate and stocks and became the largest business group in S City. It had branches both in China and abroad, and in the past two years, it had been involved in film, technology, and other promising fields.
In an office building in the center of S City, one of Ming Yu's branches was Gu Qingsheng, the CEO appointed by the headquarters.
Qiao Mo had just joined the company and was working in the R&D department on the sixteenth floor.
Because he majored in computer science, Qiao Mo was already mentally prepared.
There were a total of more than ten people, and only three or four of them were girls. Moreover, there didn't seem to be anyone as outstanding as Qiao Mo, except for the cute Xu Yaxi. Therefore, for the first three days of work, Qiao Mo received the hungry gazes of his colleagues.
On the twenty-second floor, Gu Qingsheng asked his assistant, Lian Cheng, to prepare for a meeting, but found that no one answered. Suppressing his anger, Gu Qingsheng walked out of the office and called out, "What are you doing?"
Lian Cheng didn't even raise his head. He lowered his head and scrolled through his WeChat Moments, "There's a new beauty in the R&D department, and she's making all the men in the department go crazy. Boss Gu, do you want to take a look?"
Lian Cheng raised his phone and paused in front of Gu Qingsheng.
Although Lian Cheng was usually close to him, he always separated personal and professional matters at work.
Gu Qingsheng suppressed the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth, and said, "I'll give you three minutes to prepare the meeting materials and ask Secretary Wang to prepare the tea."
Only then did Lian Cheng react. He immediately put away his phone and left his seat.
The next day, while Gu Qingsheng was waiting at the entrance of the elevator for the higher-ups, there were many people gathered at the entrance of another elevator, and they were still gossiping. Naturally, it couldn't be separated from the "secret" between Gu Qingsheng and his assistant, Lian Cheng, and Qiao Mo, who Gu Qingsheng had been hearing about for three days.
A girl said, "She's so good-looking, why don't she hook up with the boss? Look at them, they're a perfect match."
One of the boys said, "Don't, don't, don't. It's not easy for our department to get a department belle. Don't you see that our boss already has a Lian Cheng?
Don't make Momo suffer. "
"Who are you to call Momo? Yesterday, I played the game for two hours and still couldn't kill the boss monster. Qiao Mo cleared the game in ten minutes."
"You speak as if you can beat him to death!"
"Sigh, Qiao Mo gave me some technical guidance yesterday, and I passed the game. Hahaha!"
Gu Qingsheng: "…"
He had heard rumors for many days, but coincidentally, he had never seen him in person.
She entered the elevator and was about to close the door when someone stopped her. The moment the door opened, someone pulled her away. "Qiao Mo, are you stupid? That's for the higher-ups. Let's wait for this."
Qiao Mo nodded obediently. "Okay."
Not seeing anyone, Gu Qingsheng closed the door with a faint smile.
After work, Gu Qingsheng finally saw Qiao Mo after work.
Gu Qingsheng worked an hour overtime after work, so he didn't wait for the higher-ups' elevator. Instead, he took the empty staff elevator.
The elevator stopped at the sixteenth floor for a while, and an unfamiliar face entered. Thinking about the photo that flashed past Lian Cheng's phone in the morning, Gu Qingsheng immediately confirmed that this was Qiao Mo.
Qiao Mo nodded at him. She didn't recognize him, so she pressed the button for the first floor and turned her back to him.
After hearing so many rumors, Gu Qingsheng wanted to verify them. Thus, he began to size her up.
She was about 1.65 meters tall and slightly thin. Perhaps because of her profession, her skin was fair, and her long chestnut hair was slightly curly at the ends. She was wearing a bright red chiffon top, a short black skirt, and black high heels. Just looking at her back made people yearn for her.
Gu Qingsheng didn't know how other people looked at women, but the first thing he looked at was a woman's waist. Qiao Mo's thin waist was acceptable to him, so he admitted that she was a beauty in his heart, even though he couldn't see her face clearly.
In the R&D department, such a woman could easily cause trouble.
At night, when Gu Qingsheng returned home, he saw an uninvited guest in his bedroom.
The woman was lying in the middle of the bed and seemed to be asleep. She was wearing a sexy black spaghetti strap dress that covered her thighs. Because her back was facing him, her back was exposed. Her skin was delicate and fair, and her face was covered by her hair. Gu Qingsheng glanced at her and looked away.
He sighed softly and went to the living room to make a phone call.
"Mom, don't let her come to my place in the future."
"Jiaojiao has liked you for so long. You're already 30 years old, and you don't even have a girlfriend. What about my grandson?"
"Mom, I'm just 29 years old, and Ren Jiaojiao isn't suitable for me. Please don't make trouble for me."
Gu Qingsheng picked up his jacket and went to another apartment. It was originally prepared for his parents, but now that they preferred to live abroad, it had been left unused. It was fully furnished, and someone cleaned it regularly.
Gu Qingsheng lived on the sixth floor, which wasn't very high, so he took the stairs.
Suddenly, something rushed out of the dark stairwell and scuttled past his feet. Another person followed closely behind and bumped into him, almost causing him to fall.
Gu Qingsheng instinctively held onto her. The woman turned around to look at him. She was wearing a pair of silver glasses.
He recognized her almost immediately. "Qiao Mo?"
She blinked as if she was seeing him for the first time and asked, "Do we know each other?"
Gu Qingsheng looked at her again. She was wearing a white T-shirt, denim shorts, and a high ponytail. She didn't look like she was in the company at all.
His first thought was: twins.
But she responded when he called her name. Then, was she wearing casual clothes?
Gu Qingsheng thought about it and replied politely, "We're from the same company. My name is Gu Qingsheng. I've seen you before." His voice was indifferent, polite, and distant, but he kept holding on to her arm.
"Gu Qingsheng?
That sounds familiar. Hmm … Can you let go of me? "
He immediately let go without any awkwardness.
She was a little confused and took off her glasses to reveal her face. "Hmm, so we know each other. Hello, Boss Gu. I'm an employee of the research and development department. My name is Qiao Mo."
Gu Qingsheng couldn't help but laugh. So she knew him because she couldn't see clearly?
"Be careful when you walk."
She smiled and ran downstairs. Gu Qingsheng went upstairs.
In the apartment, he had just laid down when he heard a woman's voice next door. It sounded familiar yet strange.
After a while, there was a knock on the door. The person who opened the door was Qiao Mo in her pajamas with a helpless expression. Gu Qingsheng was a little surprised. What a coincidence.
She seemed to not recognize him again. "Well, hello, I'm your neighbor. My pet is running around and I can't catch it. Can you help me?"
He raised his eyebrows and looked at her slender calves under her pajamas. "Come in first. I'll go out for a while."
Her home was not as dull as a computer science student's. There were colorful splices everywhere. Even the pillows were not repeated, but they were still neat.
Standing in the living room, Gu Qingsheng heard a cat meow. It should be this cat.
He found a pure white cat in the kitchen. It was playing with a turtle and even wanted to flip its shell. Gu Qingsheng felt a little troubled.
Gu Qingsheng first found its nest and then began to catch it. After running for more than half an hour, he finally put it in the nest.
He then put the turtle in the fish tank. Gu Qingsheng returned home and found Qiao Mo asleep on the sofa.
He carried her back to her home and put her on the bed. She muttered, "Jiuyue."
"Hmm?"
There was no sound. Gu Qingsheng finally took a good look at her face. It was a very standard oval face. He saw her eyes when she took off her glasses today. She was very spirited. Her mouth was small. He wondered if she was wearing lipstick. Her lips were pink and very seductive. Her nose was high. She was a standard beauty.
After tucking in the blanket, Gu Qingsheng returned home.
When he went to work the next morning, there was a note on the door. It said, "Thank you, my new neighbor."
Qiao Mo always arrived at the office on time. As long as she was not late, she would rather eat breakfast on the way and sleep a little more.
This time, the department manager came over as soon as she sat down. It was said that women should not make things difficult for other women. This department manager was in his forties. No matter how well he took care of his skin, he could not compare to Qiao Mo, who had just turned 25.
Thus, Qiao Mo became cannon fodder.
This morning, Qiao Mo had just sat down when the manager walked over with his ten-centimeter high heels. He smiled and asked, "Qiao Mo, are you late?"
Qiao Mo looked up and smiled. "No, I calculated the time. There's still one minute before work starts."
"You're new to the workplace. You don't understand the situation. If you want to do well in this big company, you have to sleep late and wake up early."
"So, didn't I work overtime yesterday?"
"Yes. Seeing that you're so beautiful, Sister Wu is taking special care of you."
Wu Yue placed a stack of documents in front of Qiao Mo and gave him another piece of advice. "Stay away from these men. They're not good people."
She glanced at the employees in the office who were listening attentively. They immediately lowered their heads and went back to work.
Qiao Mo nodded and said coquettishly, "Yes. Thank you, Sister Wu. Your new dress is so pretty. It suits you the best."
"Yes. Work hard."
When Wu Yue entered the office, the heads in the cubicles all popped out and asked with concern, "Momo, what kind of hard work did the old woman give you? Do you need Brother to help?"
The girl closest to Qiao Mo threw a pen over and it hit the man in the forehead. "I need you to help me."
"Xu Yaxi!
Can't you learn from Qiao Mo and be a quiet woman? "
Qiao Mo spoke up to protect her. "If Xixi throws it, it's on me."
"Did you hear that? Momo is mine. Tell all of you to behave yourselves."
The office fell silent. Qiao Mo looked at the thick stack of documents and wanted to cry.
During lunch break, Qiao Mo and Xu Yaxi went to the cafeteria for lunch. Everyone in the office gathered around and surrounded them.
Someone patted Xu Yaxi and said, "Sister, can you move aside? Let me sit with Qiao Mo."
Xu Yaxi rolled her eyes. "Why should I?
Go play somewhere else. "
Qiao Mo was still thinking about the stack of documents and was not in the mood to deal with them.
Suddenly, a voice shouted, "Sit down!
Don't form cliques. That table over there, go away! "
The people around Qiao Mo immediately dispersed.
Xu Yaxi glanced over and grabbed Qiao Mo's arm. "It's Lian Cheng. Lian Cheng!"
"Oh." Qiao Mo glanced over and commented, "Is he handsome?
He's not even as recognizable as a code. "
"Lian Cheng is very handsome. What a pity. I don't know if all handsome men have high IQ but low EQ. They've all gone down the path of homosexuality."
Qiao Mo did not mind and lowered his head to eat. Just as he picked up his chopsticks, Xu Yaxi shook him again. "Ah, it's Boss Gu. It's Boss Gu's first time eating in the cafeteria."
Qiao Mo took his arm out of her grasp and picked up his chopsticks. He said calmly, "Isn't the cafeteria a place to eat?"
The employees from the other departments also said, "Boss Gu comes to the cafeteria regularly. You just joined the company, so you don't know."
"Does Boss Gu have a girlfriend?" Xu Yaxi immediately asked.
"You don't know that Boss Gu and Lian Cheng are a couple, but I heard that there is one. She only came once. I think it's fake. She found a girlfriend to fool the elders and then flew off with Lian Cheng."
Qiao Mo could not help but glance in the direction of Gu Qingsheng and Lian Cheng. He did not expect to meet Lian Cheng's eyes. He was stunned for a moment. Qiao Mo looked away awkwardly. Lian Cheng winked at him.
Qiao Mo smiled awkwardly and lowered his head. Xu Yaxi said, "Boss Gu looked over here. Qiao Mo, even Boss Gu can't resist your charm."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's eat."
Gu Qingsheng saw that Lian Cheng was being dishonest again. He glanced over and saw Qiao Mo. He said to Lian Cheng, "Don't harm your own employees."
"Boss Gu, you're harming me. If I don't fall in love, the company will spread the news that I'm living with you." Lian Cheng looked at him pitifully.
Gu Qingsheng looked at him with disdain. Lian Cheng shut his mouth.
