Chapter 675: Today, You’re My Partner, Not Secretary (1)

Xu Weilai’s words seemed to have hit a spot in Zuo An’s heart for he appeared to be lost in thoughts for a fleeting moment before he quickly recovered and flashed her an innocent grin as he replied, “Not all men will hurt women. At least...”

He looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated on second thought and changed the subject instead, “Weilai, since you could share such a fatal weakness of Gu Yu’s to prove your loyalty to me, there’s no reason for me to reject you.”

He then extended a hand to her and welcomed her, “Glad to have you in the team. I’m sincere about it this time.”

Xu Weilai, too, reached out her hand and shook his as she “Wish us...success. Hope that we’ll both get what we want.”

“Look forward to working with you.”

Xu Weilai smiled and pulled her hand away.

Feeling the instant loss of the soft touch of her palms, Zuo An subconsciously swept one glance at his empty palms before he, too, retracted it calmly.

“By the way, I’m currently living with my best friend Chunchun. But as you you know, Chunchun is hostile towards you and since she’s almost like a sister to Gu Yu, she’ll definitely stand on his side. If I switch to your camp, it’ll be awkward for us to continue to live together and neither will she support me. So... I’ll need to find a new place to stay in.”

Using the same coquettish and fawning tone of voice as before, Xu Weilai requested, “Big Boss, I’ll have to trouble you to make the necessary arrangements.”

Zuo An was already used to receiving requests from her and had always been helping her to solve her problems. He nodded without hesitation and agreed readily, “Sure. If you’re fine with the apartment that you used to live in before, you could go back there.”

“The apartment from before... Isn’t that the unit opposite to Zuo Si’s?” Xu Weilai recalled.

While there was nothing to hate about that apartment, but she doesn’t like the thought of running into Zuo Si from time to time.

Zuo An could read Xu Weilai’s mind when he saw the frown on her face and explained, “Don’t worry. Zuo Si doesn’t live across from your unit anymore. She has already moved to the same neighbourhood as Gu Yu.”

Xu Weilai was utterly clueless about this.

After being stunned for a second, she beamed and remarked, “Is she also living right across from Gu Yu’s apartment?”

“What makes you think that she’s not living in Gu Yu’s apartment?” Zuo An’s challenged with a hint of mischief in his eyes.

Xu Weilai stared straight back at him and replied truthfully, “Previously, you instructed me to send him back and when I reached his apartment, I didn’t see Zuo Si or her belongings.”

“Moreover, even if they wanted to live together, with how spoiled she is, she certainly wouldn’t sacrifice herself to live in the apartment that I used to live in.”

“That’s true.”

Zuo An then controlled his expression and took out his phone from his pocket to give Qiao Chu a call. After providing him with simple instructions, he informed Xu Weilai, “Qiao Chu will send someone to clean up the house. You can move in anytime. He’ll deliver the keys to you.”

“Thank you.”

...

Xu Weilai moved out that very night and while Xiao Chun does not agree with her choice, she did not object. After all, Gu Yu was the one who had hurt her feelings and Xiao Chun, who was still more biased towards Xu Weilai, felt sorry for her.

Xu Weilai hugged her tightly for a long time before she finally left with her suitcase.

She still stayed in the guest room that she used to stay in and just when she was unpacking her clothes, her phone rang. After Xu Weilai took one glance at the caller ID, she quickly dropped her task on hand to answer her phone.

“Boss, it’s already so late. Is something wrong?”

“There’s a business party the night after tomorrow and both Gu Yu and I are invited. Gu Yu will bring Zuo Si along and will probably make use of the opportunity to announce their relationship. I want you to attend the event with me. Are you willing to?”
