Many people know how to play up to their superiors, and now everyone is starting to ingratiate themselves with Xia Xiaoqiao, with some even thinking she is Gu Shaoting's sweetheart.
After all, Mr. Gu has never taken on a female secretary before.
But Gu Shaoting had not heard such rumors, so he paid them no mind.
In fact, upon first glance, Xia Xiaoqiao didn't seem special, but the more he looked, the more attractive he found her, especially her clean, clear, and sparkling eyes, bright as tranquil autumn waters, yet calm and collected, full of wisdom, devoid of the impetuousness common among the youth of today. She was a girl of inner strength who was neither sycophantic nor vulgar.
Even though everyone was trying to curry favor with Xia Xiaoqiao, she remained unchanged, not letting any special treatment go to her head.
