章節 17: Many People from the Company have their eyes on her
Gu Xiao Xiao's words made Chu Yi Chen laugh. All these years, he has only heard of those who are scared of the poor, he's never heard of those who are afraid of the rich.
Chu Yi Chen's sharp gaze softened a little. He closed up the document folder and prepared to get up, "let me drive you back to school."
"There's no need. I have tutoring later." Gu Xiao Xiao declined quickly, almost forgetting that she has other commitments today.
"Tutoring?" Chu Yi Chen was a little surprised, "Does Feng Yang pay you little?"
"It's the son of the manager from my previous internship. It's close to here; within walking distance. They pay me well so I have no reason to decline. As for how much this place pays me, that is a secret!" Gu Xiao Xiao deeply inhaled and stood up, "When you have time, we can talk about the other thing again."
"Cell phone."
"Ah!" Gu Xiao Xiao reacted quickly and took out her cell phone to give to him.
"Passcode."
"0108."
After Chu Yi Chen entered the series of numbers, he returned it to Gu Xiao Xiao, "be careful on your way back. If anything, call my cell."
Gu Xiao Xiao nodded and turned to leave. On her way out, she ran into a manager and after a quick small talk, she hurried left to elsewhere.
Xu Ming watched Gu Xiao Xiao leave and walked over to where she sat before. She looked at Chu Yi Chen with much intrigue and she asked, "You know Gu Xiao Xiao?"
He has been standing outside for a while so she saw everything between Chu Yi Chen and Gu Xiao Xiao.
"That should be my question. You are a manager of Feng Yang, how do you know the intern?"
"Because this intern is great!" Xu Ming didn't try to conceal his admiration towards Gu Xiao Xiao, "The girl's smart and hardworking. Curious and loves to learn. She also has a pretty face. Do you know how many people in this company have their eyes on her?"
Chu Yi Chen raised an eyebrow. He actually didn't know about this.
"I interviewed her and I watched the recording of her first two interviews. She is talented. So, I wonder how do you, Young Master Chu, know about our little intern?" Xu Ming continued to dig deep, not planning on letting Chu Yi Chen ignore this question.
Chu Yi Chen smiled faintly, "She is Xiao Xi's friend."
"Xiao Xi's friend?" Xu Ming didn't find this answer all that believable, "Based on what I know, she has never been abroad. When we interviewed, she has also made it clear that she hopes to stay domestically rather than being sent to the international subsidiaries. Xiao Xi has been abroad all these years, how did they even meet?"
"She came back." Chu Yi Chen put the documents into his briefcase and stood up. "Let's go. I have errands to run."
Chu Xiao Xi has came back to the country for three years and very few people knew about this. Based on what Gu Xiao Xiao had said, it wasn't hard to deduce that she didn't know the real identity of Chu Xiao Xi.
If she finds out the truth, she may really run away from fright. Therefore, Chu Yi Chen thought about it and decided not to reveal the truth just yet. After all, there are many days ahead and it would be better for her to slowly digest all this…
After Gu Xiao Xiao's tutoring session ended, she slowly walked out of the high class condo area. She raised his head, looked at the dark sky, and she sighed. Quickening her steps, she walked to the subway. But right as she walked out of the community's entrance, her cell in her purse rang. She took it out and saw that it was Chu Yi Chen calling.
