Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO-Chapter 392: Anyway, You’ve Already Been Dumped
Secretary Wang said nonchalantly, "Anyway, you’ve already been dumped. Yu Zheng just got engaged, so try to be more understanding."
Zha Zhuoxin widened his eyes, "Sister Wang, it’s one thing for you to help him, but why are you rubbing salt in my wound! The reason I got dumped was because of work!"
Secretary Wang chuckled, "You’re so handsome, you’ll definitely find someone better. Cheer up!"
Zha Zhuoxin didn’t have time to chat with her; he had already resigned himself to fate. "Please hand in the report to the president later. I’m going out to lay low. If the president asks, just say I’ve gone to see a client."
Secretary Wang agreed to help him with this, "Go on then."
In the office, An Junxi activated her ’scolding husband’ mode, "I told you it’s not appropriate in the office, but you insisted! What if someone saw us!"
Gu Yikun was trying to appease his wife, "Zha Zhuoxin didn’t knock. I’ll scold him later."
An Junxi got even angrier, "The biggest one at fault is you! Are you really going to bring this up? It’s clearly you who is too... too ridiculous!"
Gu Yikun took a step back, "Okay, okay, I won’t scold him. He wouldn’t dare to talk nonsense."
An Junxi didn’t want to see him, "I’m leaving."
Gu Yikun grabbed her hand, "Where are you going?"
"I’m going to the legal department!"
Gu Yikun wanted to follow her but An Junxi turned back, "Don’t follow me, or I’ll be even more upset."
"Fine, I won’t follow. The legal department is on the 27th floor."
"I know."
An Junxi walked out of the office with big strides. Secretary Wang, who had been listening outside, stood up as soon as the door opened.
"Madam, is there anything you need?"
An Junxi saw the teasing look in Secretary Wang’s eyes and cursed Zha Zhuoxin in her heart. He must have said something to Secretary Wang.
She pretended everything was normal, "Continue with your work, I’m just walking around."
Secretary Wang watched as An Junxi walked into the elevator and descended. Why did she leave? Did the president fail to get what he wanted?
In that case, Zha Zhuoxin is in big trouble!
As Secretary Wang was thinking this, the office door opened again, and a grim-faced president asked, "Where’s Zha Zhuoxin?"
Secretary Wang mourned silently for Zha Zhuoxin for a second, "Reporting to the president, Assistant Cha went out to see a client. He said these reports are for you."
Gu Yikun glanced at the reports, "Have him bring them to me himself. If he’s not here in half an hour, let him consider the consequences."
"Bang!" The door was slammed shut.
Secretary Wang quickly called Zha Zhuoxin, "You’ve made a huge mistake, get your ass back here immediately!"
Zha Zhuoxin heard this urgent call from hell, and was so flustered he hit the car in front of him.
And it turned out to be a Rolls Royce. Today really is a nightmare!
He got out of the car and the driver of the car in front came out shouting, "How do you drive? My boss is still in the car, do you think you can afford to pay for this?"
Zha Zhuoxin’s car wasn’t just any ordinary vehicle, but it was still a notch below the Rolls Royce.
Not in the mood to waste time with the driver, he walked straight to the car’s rear window and knocked.
Seeing that someone ignored him, Chen Ming yelled even louder, "What’s your problem? You looking for a fight?"
The window slowly rolled down, and Zha Zhuoxin saw the person inside. "Turns out it’s Chairman He. Do you remember me? Here’s my business card. This was an oversight on my part, I’m really in a hurry. Is it alright if we resolve this in a few days?"
Seeing this guy dare to speak to his boss like that, Chen Ming expected his boss to tear into him, but to his surprise, the boss took the card and without even looking at it said, "Who doesn’t know Assistant Cha from President Gu’s side? Let’s consider today’s incident settled. Assistant Cha is busy and so am I with a meeting. Let’s drop it."
Chen Ming was dumbfounded. Is this guy really from President Gu’s side?
Zha Zhuoxin shook hands with He Zhi Lei, "Chairman He, you’re truly straightforward. I won’t disturb you further. We’ll definitely have a drink together to apologize properly next time."
He Zhi Lei said, "Assistant Cha, you’re too polite. Next time President Gu attends an event, just let me know. Much appreciated."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the whole situation was de-escalated.
Zha Zhuoxin drove away, passing by a stunned Chen Ming who stood there dumbstruck.
He Zhi Lei turned and scolded him, "Be more careful next time!"
This young man really couldn’t satisfy him. If it weren’t for Uncle Li’s strong recommendation after retirement, he wouldn’t have kept this driver. He wasn’t reliable and his basic professionalism was only barely acceptable.
Chen Ming got into the driver’s seat, mumbling to himself, the boss’s attitude towards him and that assistant was worlds apart! That guy is just an assistant, yet the boss was so respectful to him. Those business cards of President Gu surely come in handy!
If the boss knew he had some connections with the president’s wife, wouldn’t he be treated even more favorably?
Chen Ming’s mind started to wander, thinking about when he could approach the president’s wife again. The president’s wife was very concerned about his sister; she would definitely meet him.
Before going to the legal department, An Junxi heard about Cheng Ye’s resignation and went to the HR department first.
Miao Yan was still on vacation in the United States, so she found another person in charge, "When did Cheng Ye resign? Doesn’t it need the president’s approval?"
Her aunt had left home two days ago, and she wanted Cheng Ye to stay. After all, Gu Family was their connection to her family. If Cheng Ye left the Gu Family, her aunt would surely drift further away from them.
The result she heard was, "Madam, the president approved Lawyer Cheng’s resignation yesterday morning."
Yesterday morning? That was when she was resting at home, and he had approved Cheng Ye’s resignation!
Why didn’t he tell her?
An Junxi was angry and rushed to the president’s office. Secretary Wang tried to stop her, "Madam, the president is having a meeting with Assistant Cha inside."
Secretary Wang was just symbolically trying to stop her, thinking that madam would definitely barge in. She thought Zha Zhuoxin was finally saved, as he had already been in there for half an hour; hopefully, he was still alive!
Unexpectedly, An Junxi sat down to wait, "Fine, I’ll wait here."
Secretary Wang was stunned. Madam was clearly furious, yet she could still hold back?
An Junxi waited for about half an hour before Zha Zhuoxin emerged.
He looked half-dead as he floated back to his office.
An Junxi opened the door and walked in, Gu Yikun scolded coldly, "You dare to..."
An Junxi stopped at the door, "President Gu, am I not allowed to come in?"
Seeing it was her, Gu Yikun’s stern expression softened, "Come in and sit."
An Junxi entered and stood in front of him. Gu Yikun tried to hold her hand, but she hid it behind her back.
Gu Yikun noticed she was upset, "Who made my Xi Xi angry?"
"It was you."
"Please enlighten me, madam."
He really didn’t know what he had done wrong.
An Junxi said, "You approved Cheng Ye’s resignation yesterday, why didn’t you tell me? You knew I didn’t want Cheng Ye to leave. That way, my aunt and family would really..."
Gu Yikun pulled her onto his lap and she tried to maintain her distance, but Gu Yikun held her tightly.
