To look deeply into
Chapter 7
In the dim corridor, Qiao Mo could vaguely sense Gu Yusheng's anger. She couldn't ask him directly, so she moved to the side and said, "Come in and talk."
Qiao Mo was in the kitchen pouring water. Her mind was in a mess. Five minutes later, she finally came out with a cup.
She bent slightly to put the cup on the coffee table. Before she straightened up, she heard him say, "Even though Lian Cheng told me the cause of the incident, and I can tell that Wu Yue is biased against you, I want to know what your plans are."
Well, this was the boss's power.
Qiao Mo knelt on the carpet with her head lowered. Her fingers tugged at the corner of her shirt as she thought quickly. Plans?
She couldn't possibly say, "Boss, don't worry, I've already found someone to back me up." That would be courting death. She couldn't act coquettishly either. She was afraid that she would be fired at this very moment before tomorrow. Oh no, she would be banished from "S" City …
She couldn't figure out his temper.
After she greeted Lian Cheng again, Qiao Mo raised her head. She put her arms on the table like a first grader and said obediently, "I don't want to leave Ming Yu, but this kind of thing happens in every company. I can't do anything about it." After some thought, Qiao Mo added, "There's no back door for me to use."
Her dispirited tone made her sound like a pitiful person who had no choice but to accept her fate in the workplace. Qiao Mo couldn't help but award herself an Oscar in her heart.
The atmosphere suddenly turned silent. Qiao Mo raised her head to look at Gu Qingsheng strangely. Gu Qingsheng's beautiful brows were slightly furrowed. His deep eyes happened to meet hers.
Qiao Mo inexplicably blushed and felt guilty. She was about to lower her head again.
Almost at the same time, he reached out and gently pinched her chin, forcing her to look up.
Qiao Mo widened her eyes. She heard him say in a deep voice, "You have a back door, but you don't want to use it."
Qiao Mo instinctively swallowed. She straightened her back and continued to play dumb. "Huh?"
Her acting skills were not very good, but he already had an answer in his heart.
He let go of his hand and raised it to rest on the top of her head. "Good night, Qiao Mo."
"…" President, are you overprotective?
Then, Qiao Mo accidentally opened two back doors.
As a result, Qiao Mo's name shone brightly in Ming Yu like a CEO.
The next day, as soon as Qiao Mo stepped into the cubicle, Xu Yaxi grabbed her arm and dragged her to the pantry.
After entering the room, he pinned Qiao Mo against the wall and placed his hand next to her ear. He was ready to do a beautiful kabedon and then 'torture' her for a confession.
However, Qiao Mo was already taller than her, and she was also wearing high heels, so she lost in terms of presence.
However, Xu Yaxi still straightened her back and questioned her. "Tell me, what's your relationship with Zhang Yang and the CEO?"
She rolled her eyes and pretended to be dumb. "What relationship? Xixi, your eyeliner is crooked today."
"Is that so?" Xu Yaxi immediately took out a mirror to check. "Oh, it's all my mom's fault. She didn't wake me up earlier."
"Then take your time. I'm going to work." Qiao Mo slipped away.
Unfortunately, as soon as Qiao Mo sat down, everyone around her, both familiar and unfamiliar, came over and asked the same question in unison. "Momo, what's your relationship with Zhang Yang and the CEO?"
Qiao Mo was speechless.
At this moment, Wu Yue walked out of the office and scolded, "What are you doing during working hours?
Sit back down for three seconds. If you're late, I'll deduct all your bonuses! "
The office instantly fell silent and everyone sat down.
Qiao Mo pursed her lips helplessly.
Wu Yue walked over to Qiao Mo and said gently, "The CEO said that he'll be waiting for him for lunch today."
"Huh, huh?" Qiao Mo blinked. Not only was he surprised by Wu Yue's gentle tone, but he was also surprised by this shocking news.
"What did the CEO say?"
Wu Yue looked at the employees who were listening intently and said softly, "Let's talk in my office."
"Oh, okay."
Before they entered the office, Wu Yue glared at them and everyone immediately lowered their heads.
After the two of them entered the office, Qiao Mo consciously closed the door. Wu Yue pointed at the sofa and said, "Sit down and talk."
Qiao Mo's left eyelid twitched. He guessed that something bad was going to happen this morning. He replied politely, "It's okay. It should be over soon."
Wu Yue did not force her. She knew what she wanted to hear, so she went straight to the point. "This morning, the HR manager, Zhang Yang, and the CEO came to our department together. It was about your resignation. The CEO said that he thinks highly of you. Other than him, no one can fire you. Before he left, he asked me to tell you to wait for him here for lunch this afternoon."
"I understand. Thank you, manager."
After knowing the reason, Qiao Mo turned to leave. However, Wu Yue stopped him.
"Qiao Mo, I was wrong. I was impulsive. I hope you can forgive me."
Qiao Mo sighed inwardly. It was so comfortable to have a backer. He smiled and said, "Of course."
In the end, Wu Yue could not help but ask carefully, "Then, you and the CEO are …?"
"Neighbors."
After Qiao Mo walked out of the office, he immediately rolled his eyes. In the end, he still wanted to gossip.
Wu Yue was speechless. Qiao Mo was the CEO's neighbor and the CEO lived in a high-end villa area. This meant that this Qiao Mo was not a simple person. Wu Yue could not help but tremble.
After work at noon, Xu Yaxi came over. He did not hide his envy and asked kindly, "Beauty, do you need someone to carry your bag when you eat with the CEO?"
"I need you to go away. You're such a lackey."
"Momo, Momo, you're so lucky. It's fine that you know the handsome HR manager, Zhang Yang. You even have the CEO. Why can't I be so lucky?"
"You will have one."
A cold and familiar voice sounded behind her. Xu Yaxi turned around and quickly put on a big smile. "Good afternoon, CEO."
Gu Qingsheng nodded and instructed the man behind him who was facing Qiao Mo with starry eyes, "Liancheng, you must take good care of this lady this afternoon."
Lian Cheng's eyes widened. He pointed at himself and said, "Me?"
No one paid any attention to him. Gu Qingsheng picked up Qiao Mo's bag from the table and said, "Let's hurry up. The restaurant has been booked in advance."
Qiao Mo was grabbed by the wrist. He did not have time to say a word before he was dragged out of the door.
Xu Yaxi held his face in his hands and said, "So handsome, so handsome …"
Lian Cheng, who was ignored, was speechless. He had just met Momo.
Soon, Lian Cheng reacted. He said to the infatuated Xu Yaxi, "Hey, bro, do you think the CEO is chasing Momo?"
Xu Yaxi glared at him and shouted, "Who are you calling bro? Can't you see my long hair and beautiful dress?"
Xu Yaxi used to be raised as a boy. She only grew her hair when she went to university. She hated being called a boy.
This was her bottom line. If Lian Cheng's position wasn't higher than hers, she would have kicked him.
Lian Cheng's thin body trembled as he retreated to the door. "Sis, sis, don't be angry. I have something to do. I'll leave first."
"Get lost!
I'm the only one left. "
Qiao Mo was in the elevator. He deliberated for a long time before he said, "Thank you for helping me."
"You're welcome. It was your ability that made you stay."
The CEO was so straightforward. He was not touched at all.
After a while, the elevator arrived. Qiao Mo said, "Okay."
The two of them walked out of the elevator together and received a lot of attention. Gu Qingsheng said casually, "You have a lot of connections. You probably won't be able to leave even if I don't help you."
Why did this sound a little strange? Qiao Mo's EQ was not enough.
And there was another thing. Why did he want to have dinner with him?
He walked out of the door and did not go to the parking lot. Qiao Mo asked, "Don't you need to drive?"
"I don't have much time. I booked a table at a nearby restaurant. It's Western food. Is that okay?"
Acting first and asking questions later again …
Qiao Mo finally seized the opportunity and said, "Then, why so suddenly? Why did you want to have dinner with me?"
She tried to be as tactful as possible. She didn't dislike the CEO. She just found it strange.
Gu Qingsheng suddenly stopped in his tracks. Qiao Mo was shocked. He turned around and asked, "Have you left?"
After a while, he continued walking and said, "No, Qiao Mo. I have some business to talk to you about."
"Oh, okay." This was a serious reason.
They walked into a high-end Western restaurant. Gu Qingsheng took her directly to a private room on the second floor.
A waiter was waiting at the door. When he approached, he bowed slightly and said, "Boss Gu, all the dishes have just been served. Please call me if you need anything."
"Okay."
Gu Qingsheng opened the door and stepped aside to give her some space. "Go in."
"Thank you."
At the square table, both of them were seated with steak. Next to them were unopened bottles of red wine and champagne. The tableware on the white tablecloth was exquisite and elegant.
It was undeniable that Gu Qingsheng really knew how to choose a restaurant. If it was a date, he would make an outstanding boyfriend.
Qiao Mo suddenly thought of this. He quickly took a deep breath and forgot about those strange thoughts.
He first pulled out the chair for her. Perhaps he had done something to the legs of the chair. There was only a slight sound of friction.
He was very polite. After Qiao Mo sat down, he sat up straight. Gu Qingsheng also sat down and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. Every time I come to a restaurant like this, I'm a little used to it … How about this? There aren't many good restaurants around here. This place is very good. The steak is the best."
"Okay. Then, what do you want to talk to me about?"
He was not in a hurry to answer. He picked up the champagne and asked, "What do you like?"
Qiao Mo looked at him with disdain. He wanted to say, "I want iced cola."
But considering the elegant environment, he said, "I don't drink."
He saw this and teased, "You want cola?"
"Huh?
You … "Qiao Mo's face turned red when his little secret was exposed.
He explained, "Every time I go to your house, there's a bottle of cola on the coffee table. But it's not good to drink too much. I'll get you a glass of orange juice."
"No, I don't like anything else."
"Okay."
While cutting the steak, Gu Qingsheng said, "The company has been involved in the film and television industry for the past few years, but it's not very mature in all aspects. We're only making a small profit now. The real business opportunity is not in the movie box office.
So, the company will be investing more in the fans. What do you think? "
Qiao Mo's face turned bitter. He said honestly, "Business opportunity?
Fans?
President, I'm just a computer gamer. It's not that difficult. "
"It's okay. Take your time to think about it. I don't like employees who only know how to do things by the book."
You saved me and put me on the edge of a cliff.
Qiao Mo had only learned about computers. When it came to business management, he was completely ignorant.
If he had known, he would have jumped down himself. The sooner he died, the sooner he could reincarnate.
Qiao Mo cut the steak fiercely as if he was cutting Gu Qingsheng.
The indifferent person opposite him said, "That won't be me.
When you have an idea, I'll give you a generous reward. "
Qiao Mo did not think much of it. He said lazily, "How generous?"
"I'll grant you a wish, okay?"
Qiao Mo raised his head and looked into his eyes. His eyes were dark and deep, as if they could suck people in.
She seemed to be under a spell. She asked blankly, "Any wish?"
That meant he agreed.
Gu Qingsheng smiled and nodded. His eyes were full of affection.
After the meal, Qiao Mo realized that he had been seduced.
