Chapter 254 - Assistant Liu was angry
Gu Yan was about to have dinner and she found that Jiang Jingcheng was still working. She hesitated before coming to him.
Gu Yan thought a lot in the afternoon. There was nothing unusual between Jiang Jingcheng and her. It was unfair to estrange from him only because of gossip.
It wouldn’t do any good to their work if she kept him at a distance. And such coldness and distance seemed so intentional. She was convinced that a clean hand wanted no washing. Time would prove it.
Gu Yan was no longer negative. Then she went to Jiang Jingcheng with a smile, “Jingcheng, it’s time to get off work.”
Jiang Jingcheng found that Gu Yan didn’t care about what happened last time, which made him relieved. He was afraid that Gu Yan would keep him at arm’s length, or he could hardly complete Chen Qian’s task.
He didn’t expect that his colleagues almost wrecked his plan. Jiang Jingcheng felt restless the whole afternoon. Seeing that Gu Yan didn’t leave, he stayed to work and wanted to sound Gu Yan out.
At the same time, he determined to get Assistant Liu under his control. On the one hand, Assistant Liu could tell him every detail about Gu Yan. On the other hand, it could stop his colleagues from gossiping about him and Gu Yan.
When Gu Yan smiled and talked to him in a relaxed manner, Jiang Jingcheng felt relieved. He smiled and replied, “I want to finish my work.”
“I am single and no one is waiting for me at home. I’d like to work overtime since gorgeous Yanyan can accompany me.”
Gu Yan felt awkward when he called her Yanyan. But she promised that he could call her this way in private. So, Gu Yan couldn’t say anything since they were already off duty.
Gu Yan disguised her awkwardness and told Jiang Jingcheng, “Your health is more important than work. You’ll delay work if you get ill.”
Jiang Jingcheng worked overtime just to sound Gu Yan out. Seeing that Gu Yan still treated him as usual, he didn’t intend to stay. He put aside the documents.
“Yes, Yanyan. I’ll follow your advice.” He said.
Gu Yan smiled, “OK. I’m leaving.”
Jiang Jingcheng was happy, “OK, President Gu. See you.”
“Well, see you!” Then Gu Yan left.
The next few days, Gu Yan went to work as usual. Nothing special happened between them.
Jiang Jingcheng felt helpless since Gu Yan was so composed. It seemed that she didn’t have feelings for him.
But he had to be Gu Yan’s bromeo so as to make Mo Yichen jealous. Then Mo Yichen would have trouble with Gu Yan.
“Hey, Jingcheng, what are you thinking about?”
Jiang Jingcheng was suddenly slammed hard by someone behind him. His body moved forward and he was scared. He frowned, with hidden bitterness in his eyes.
“It’s you. What’s up?” Jiang Jingcheng didn’t change his expression when he saw Assistant Liu. He still looked at the computer and dealt with his work.
Assistant Liu was furious because of Jiang Jingcheng’s attitude. She liked him and respected him. But she wouldn’t let him trample over her. She was not a pet at his disposal.
“Well, Mr. Jiang. Did you forget what you said a few hours ago?”
Assistant Liu puckered her lips and looked at Jiang Jingcheng. She was unhappy and snorted contemptuously.
“How can he be so indifferent to me? Just because I like him? It seems he detests me. How can he treat me like this? He changes so fast.” Assistant Liu couldn’t bear it. She was so emotional that she could feel Jiang Jiangcheng’s indifference to her.
Jiang Jingcheng saw that Assistant Liu was angry. She was in a bad mood. She picked up the documents and was about to go home. Jiang Jingcheng punched his mouth. “What the hell did I do? I should have the foresight and let her be on my side.” He thought.
Jiang Jingcheng was a little irritable. He didn’t have interest in this kind of woman. Actually, he didn’t know about women and was a little tired of women who got angry easily.
But he could only resort to her. Jiang Jingcheng once hesitated to make up his mind because he didn’t want to hurt anyone. However, he loved Chen Qian and could only hurt Assistant Liu to help Chen Qian.
“What can I do? How can I comfort her?” He didn’t know what to do and felt like a fool. He knew nothing about love. And Chen Qian would never be angry with him since she was not so emotional. “Maybe she never cares about me. So, she will never get angry with me.” He thought.
The person who got angry with you was the one who truly loved you.
