Chapter 1004: The Ruthless Overbearing CEO's Grudge-Bearing Butler 17

After resting at the old residence for two days, Gu Han returned to the company to keep working, while Jin Chen relaxed, leisurely strolling through the vast Zhuang Yuan, fully enjoying being a salted fish, and from time to time contacting his original-self's friends abroad.

As July approached, the headquarters of the Gu Clan Group was about to undergo its annual layoff evaluation.

From the lower ranks to the upper echelons, in order to maintain work vigilance and efficiency, fresh blood will be swiftly added after the layoffs.

After nearly ten days of layoffs, compensation, and new hires, Gu Han's Chief Executive Officer Secretary Office also welcomed many newcomers, including a new assistant.

"Gu CEO, your coffee."

Li Xing knocked and entered, placing the freshly brewed coffee beside Gu Han.

Gu Han didn't lift his head, continuing to stare at the data on the screen, until a few seconds later, seeing no one leave, he frowned and looked up in confusion.

"Anything else?"

"His voice was cold, devoid of warmth."

Li Xing snapped back, hastily shaking his head, "No, no..."

His appearance was delicate; looking startled now, he actually evoked pity.

"Then Gu CEO, I'll head out first."

Li Xing bit his lip as he left, seeming somewhat annoyed at himself for zoning out, yet his expression was deliberate.

However, Gu Han didn't notice at all.

Except when facing Jin Chen, Gu Han's wooden genes were still quite evident.

He simply didn't notice that this new assistant, who considered himself clever, had already been showing attentiveness for several days.

After Li Xing left, he again raised a bashful smile and returned to his desk in the Secretary Office.

In every aspect, Gu CEO is simply his perfect ideal type.

Moreover, as the saying goes, "those near the water get the moon first"; after observing these few days, Gu CEO's surroundings are very clean, with not even a lover.

The more Li Xing thought, the more confident he felt.

"Don't mix personal feelings into work hours."

The Chief Secretary, having followed Gu Han for these years, could obviously see the little assistant's thoughts, speaking sternly, "If Gu CEO finds out, dismissal would be the lightest consequence."

"What are you talking about, Brother Liu? I don't know what you mean."

Li Xing handed him a piece of chocolate with a smile, "I haven't done anything, Brother Liu, calm down."

"One doesn't strike a smiling face, and besides, Li Xing really hasn't done anything yet, so Secretary Liu saw no need to say more, leaving it at that."

If this person doesn't appreciate it, I'll continue as I am; if anyone gets fired, it'll only be Li Xing himself.

Liu Secretary waved his hand, refusing, "No need."

"I'm not used to this kind of chocolate; it's too rich."

Whether intentional or not, he took the documents compiled from various departments, stood up, and went to find Gu Han for a signature.

Li Xing's face slightly stiffened, and he himself tore open the chocolate and took a bite.

Not long after, Liu Secretary returned, reminding Li Xing.

"In the afternoon meeting, Gu CEO has an important document at the suburban Zhuang Yuan; I'll send you the address later, and you go fetch it."

Li Xing quickly stood up, "Okay!"

——

Zhuang Yuan.

Li Xing, having received Gu Han's signal and being an employee of the Gu Clan Group, was let in after the guard asked a few questions.

Li Xing marveled at the vastness of the Zhuang Yuan, covertly looking around, his heart more determined to hook up with Gu Han.

Following the secretary's instructions, he passed through the front garden's fountain, went from the connecting corridor to the main courtyard.

As the main gate opened, a handsome young man walked out.

Jin Chen had just received the guard's message, came over yawning, "Hello."

Li Xing's eyes widened, he scanned Jin Chen from head to toe, finally resting on his face; his first thought was that Gu Han kept a little lover in the Zhuang Yuan.

"That appearance..."

Li Xing felt he was being outshone, then reminded himself that as Gu CEO's assistant, he was more important than that lover.

He lifted his chin arrogantly, "Gu CEO told me to come get the documents."

"Wait, I'll go to the study…" "No need!"

Li Xing frowned and interrupted, "I can go myself; what do you know?"

Having said that, he walked straight in.

Jin Chen:?

Something's off.

This little assistant's gaze at him was off.

How long have they been living apart, and why is his domineering CEO suddenly surrounded by fluttering beauties!

Jin Chen leaned against the doorframe, watching the assistant wander about.

Li Xing turned and glared at him, "Still not leading the way!"

Jin Chen ignored him, pulled out his phone and made a call.

He even spitefully turned on the speakerphone.

Only a few seconds later, the call connected.

Jin Chen cleared his throat, speaking with a strained voice, tone low, "Sir..."

"What's wrong?" Gu Han sensed the conveyed emotion.

"Your assistant came to the residence to fetch documents… but he seems, not to want me to be here."

Li Xing's eyes widened; he never expected that little lover to dare directly report him!!

Jin Chen continued: "He still won't let me touch your documents, saying he'll go get them himself in the study..."

Li Xing: "……"

Cut the crap!

When did I ever say it wasn't allowed!

Gu Han responded immediately, his voice crystal clear reaching Li Xing's ears.

Besides you, no one is allowed to enter the study.

If he won't listen, let him get out; you bring the documents over.

Li Xing panicked inside, "Sorry, Gu CEO… I didn't mean to, I'll have him get it now."

Gu Han didn't respond to him, continuing to Jin Chen: "I'm not home, you handle these things yourself; from now on you don't need to report to me."

Okay, sir.

Jin Chen hung up the phone, leisurely looked at him, "Can I wait outside now?"

Li Xing: "……" Damn it.

This little lover's tactics are really something!

Hurry up, Gu CEO is still waiting to use it.

Jin Chen handed the documents to him, his peach-blossom eyes scanning Li Xing's face, his gaze filled with a blatant smile.

He said nothing, but his purpose was already achieved.

Li Xing was so angry at him he gritted his teeth, picked up the documents and turned to leave.

So what if he's the favored lover? He can see Gu CEO anytime at the company!

Watching the little assistant leave, Jin Chen thoughtfully tapped his chin.

Looks like I need to go care for my dear tyrant CEO.

During this time, without the protagonist causing trouble for flavor, I had been thinking I could relax on vacation, never expecting such an exciting thing to happen.

Speaking of the protagonist, Jin Chen mentally calculated the time. Days.

Yo, summer vacation is coming up.

July, but in the original plot all kinds of climaxes.

It's also almost time for Gu Yeting to find out about Gu Han's past white moonlight, which is Bai Yunyue.

We need to get in good touch with the tyrant CEO before these events happen.

Jin Chen thought for a moment, then slipped into the kitchen.
