Chapter Fifty-eight Layers

After placing the food, he said, "Sir, please enjoy your meal. If you need anything, please press the red button on the table."Xu Yixue glanced at the lovestruck waitress and her nodding brother, the...Well, I was late again. Standing in front of the elevator in the underground parking garage, I saw Gu Xicheng and them walking over.

She's really not suited for working outside. She should just stay home and work for the family company.

"Good morning, Mr. Gu, I...I'm late."

"Well,"

Oh, please. You need to learn some manners.

Ji Chuan smiled inwardly, but his face remained impassive.

After she finished speaking, without looking at his face, she said, "Mr. Gu, I'll resign today."

"Why don't you just be my secretary" he asked, his voice cold even after she had left.

"Ji Chuan, please tell Ms. Xu's supervisor."

She paused, wanting to retort, but nothing came out.

At the very moment the elevator doors were about to close, Xu Yixue heard him say, "Come up at noon," his tone laced with absolute command, leaving no room for argument.

Xu Yixue wanted to retort but had no chance. A thousand grass mud horses galloped through her heart in an instant. She could only punch and kick the closed elevator door.

“Want to leave but can’t!” Xu Yixue wanted to cry but couldn’t.

When Xu Yixue returned to the office, she felt that Chen Tuzi's gaze had changed. There was a sense of impending storm in his eyes.

Having handed over her work to Lin Ling, Xu Yixue listlessly picked up the phone on her desk. Before she could bring it to her ear, Gu Xicheng's voice came through.

"Come up!" A short, sharp command.

Xu Yixue straightened up and hurried to the elevator.

I thought we had settled everything this morning. She must be deliberately stalling for time. Suddenly, she called. I was about to ignore it, but I felt bad about ditching her, especially since she's my boss.

The Shengyu Group mainly operates in electronics, technology, networks, and construction. It also involves high-end catering and entertainment industries. In fact, it engages in anything profitable. Over the past two years, the name of Shengyu Group has become well-known in the capital city.

The elevator stopped with a thud on the 19th floor. Stepping out, the CEO's office was located there. Last time I was called up, I didn't take a good look. The entire 19th floor was very spacious. It was luxuriously decorated and lavishly furnished. Mainly, employees who weren't called couldn't go to the 19th floor.

Xu Yixue paused at the elevator entrance for a moment, then walked to the right.

Standing at the door, Xu Yixue took a deep breath before raising her hand to push it open. With just a gentle push, the office door swung open with ease!

Gu Xicheng didn't look at him, his gaze fell on the document. He should have sensed the movement at the door ---

"Here I am."

"Hmm..."

"Have a seat!" Gu Xicheng raised his chin slightly, gesturing for her to sit down.

Gu Xicheng's lips curved into a triumphant smile, as if he had just won a decisive victory. He had indeed made her his secretary.

Gu Xicheng narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, sizing up Xu Yixue.

Xu Yixue stopped talking. She awkwardly touched her head and quickly added, "Mr. President, shall I order you some food at this hour"

Gu Xi Cheng looked at her with satisfaction, raised the corners of his lips, it seemed that keeping her by his side was really not bad.

He has plenty of time, and can take it slow!

He has plenty of patience for her.

Only then did Gu Xicheng retract his gaze, looking at her with indifference: "Yes, go and hand over the work here to Ji Chuan."

"Okay, Mr. President." Yixue ate in silence, her parents and brother spoke little as well. Moreover, her brother kept getting phone calls during the meal, not even having time to eat, let alone talk about her birthday.Xu Y...
