The true record of a female CEO’s loyal dog

Chapter 4 A strange combination of circumstances leads to a dinner party

"what?"

Lin Ke was a little timid. He walked up to Shu Xue and said, "Mr. Shu, are you serious about not going back to your old house for dinner tonight? If you don't go back, I might be angry."

"Assistant Lin, I know you are well-informed."

Shu Xue's eyes were as cold as an ice knife, completely different from the affectionate look he had just in front of Gu Xu.

"But...did you misunderstand something? Who gave you the right to say that as a special assistant, you can take care of anything? Do you also want to start a side business of opening a marriage agency?"

"Mr. Shu, I didn't... didn't mean that."

Lin Ke did not dare to say anything more, and only dared to secretly complain about the hardships of living in a tight spot.

He is like a winter melon on the roof, being kicked around from both sides every day and constantly being disliked.

Shu Xue glanced at Lin Ke who was sweating, and her tone gradually softened: "As my special assistant, you can't be double-dealing. I can't accept someone who serves multiple masters staying by my side, and I don't I will be as generous to you as my eldest brother was when he was the president of the group, do you understand?"

"clear."

Lin Ke didn't want to do anything difficult other than these tasks. Originally, the group had a new president, and he, the president's special assistant, hadn't fully adapted yet, so he still had the energy to complete the temporary additional tasks assigned to him by his old house.

Lin Ke probed: "But Master...Mr. Shu, how should I respond?"

"Do you need me to teach you this?"

Shu Xue sighed helplessly, "Just answer me truthfully. Just in time, it also stopped grandpa from wanting to marry me."

"Is this how you respond? Aren't I obviously dissatisfied with my longevity? I..."

Shu Xue glared at Lin Ke again and forcefully told him to hold back the second half of his sentence.

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, the sun sets in the west.

The lavender glow dyes through the clouds, and the light and shadow are like mountains and mountains hanging in the sky.

In the warm evening breeze, Shu Xue stood alone under the crescent moon.

After coming out of Gu Xu's dressing room, Shu Xue set off back to the company.

The Shu family has a big business, and there are countless things that need to be handled by the group president every day.

Although Shu Xue was forced to return to China to take over the Shu Group, now that she has returned to China, even if she cannot manage the Shu Group as prosperously as her elder brother Shu Ting did, she cannot be laughed at.

It's just that... Shu Xue's work efficiency today always stagnated because of the uncontrollable appearance of Gu Xu in his mind.

In addition, Gu Xu didn't want to have dinner with her. Shu Xue was afraid that Gu Xu would finish work early and run away, so she came to wait outside the studio early.

Shu Xue, a hunter, understands very well in her heart - although feelings cannot be rushed, it is still necessary to strike while the iron is hot.

So after seeing Gu Xu and his group walking out of the studio, Shu Xue looked like a teenage high school girl and trotted happily all the way to Gu Xu.

If the two hadn't met before, Gu Xu would have thought that he was being blocked by some bastard again.

"Brother is off work?"

Gu Xu said a cold "hmm" and said preemptively: "Mr. Shu, I think I may not have expressed my meaning clearly enough before, so I bothered you to make another trip."

Shu Xue still pretended to be confused, "What didn't you say clearly? Brother, did you say you don't want to eat French food?"

Shu Xue suddenly changed the subject: "It doesn't matter. In our Shu's Hotel, no matter what cuisine it is, as long as my brother wants to eat it, we can cook it all. So, what does my brother want to change to? I will arrange it right away."

Gu Xu sighed deeply. He was very tired of dealing with Shu Xue's messy behavior.

"Mr. Shu, as a spokesperson, my advertising shooting work has ended. Besides, I have other things to do, so I can't be with you..."

Gu Xu looked up helplessly, but his words stopped when he saw several black cars in the distance.

Seeing those familiar black cars, Gu Xu couldn't help but frown.

Although he controlled his emotions very well and there were not many waves on his face, the raging anger in his heart instantly dried up his originally gentle eyes, as if they were about to burst into flames.

In order for the old man to go back to attend the banquet tonight, the old man actually found so many people to kidnap him!

Oh, why didn't you think that Gu Xu was so proud before?

But Shu Xue was unaware of Gu Xu's anger. She took a step forward and blocked Gu Xu's sight.

She guessed the last half of Gu Xu's unfinished words and asked in a resentful tone: "What can't you do?"

Shu Xue was waiting for Gu Xu to say something before continuing to block him.

As the saying goes: A good girl is afraid of stalking a man, so she just followed Gu Xu and teased her. She didn't believe that Gu Xu really didn't give him a chance.

But Shu Xue "miscalculated" again this time——

She actually...

No effort at all?

Gu Xu suddenly made a 180° turn for her, and his words were completely different from before: "I mean, you can't... you can't go to a hotel too far away to eat."

Gu Xu himself felt guilty when he said this, so much so that he stuttered in embarrassment in front of Shu Xue.

"what?"

Shu Xue was both surprised and surprised. Gu Xu agreed so smoothly that she couldn't believe it.

Could it be that she had Gu Xu in place so easily?

But...no matter how I think about it, something doesn't feel right.

But Shu Xue couldn't control that much. She was afraid that Gu Xu would regret it, so she quickly responded: "Not far! Not far! I asked the nearest Shu's Hotel to reserve a private room, so I won't waste too much time on the road. Don’t worry, brother.”

"Ah."

Gu Xu looked past Shu Xue and stopped at the Maybach S680 Pullman behind her.

The old man cares so much about his business, and it just so happens that Shu Xue drives his car so openly again. Even if the old man wanted to tie him back directly, his subordinates would not dare to act recklessly after seeing him get into this car, right?

Thinking of this, Gu Xu looked back at Shu Xue.

Shu Xue was staring at him with a smile at the moment. Shu Xue's smile reached her eyes, like gurgling spring water, gentle, bright, and compelling.

Seeing such an innocent and charming Shu Xue, Gu Xu felt guilty for taking advantage of her.

But now, in order to get rid of his father's people as soon as possible, Gu Xu had no other better choice but to use Shu Xue this time. If there is a chance in the future, I will apologize to Shu Xue again.

"Then I'll take Mr. Shu's car, okay?" Gu Xu raised his hand and pointed to the assistant behind him, "He has to drive back to help me get my things. He will need it for work tomorrow morning."

Gu Xu's assistant didn't know the situation at Gu Xu's family, and Gu Xu didn't want to involve outsiders in the bad things happening in his family.

The old man would be wary of Shu Xue's identity, but if it was the assistant who got in the way of the old man's affairs, I don't know what would happen.

Gu Xu's assistant guessed that Gu Xu wanted to get rid of him. Even though he didn't know why, he still maintained his usual trust and followed Gu Xu's play in a tacit understanding.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Shu. I have to go back to the company and need a car."

It was too late for Shu Xue to be happy, and she didn't care why Gu Xu's attitude suddenly changed. She thought that it was only a matter of time before Gu Xu became her favorite.

She made an invitation gesture towards Gu Xu: "Let's go, brother, you are welcome to get in the car."

When the driver of the Shu family started the car and left, several black cars in the distance continued to follow behind him like a tail that could not be shaken off, just as Gu Xu had expected.

……

The summer days were long, and just before the setting sun hung in the sky, Shu Xue and Gu Xu arrived at the high-rise restaurant in Shu's Hotel.

The private room Shu Xue let stay in the hotel had a large floor-to-ceiling glass window. After the golden afterglow was refracted by the glass, it filled the entire private room. Coupled with many light-colored flowers in vases, it was as if it was soaked in honey.

Gu Xu noticed that the headlights in the private room were not turned on, only a few goose-yellow dark lights were turned on.

But it stands to reason that Shu's Hotel should not make such a low-level mistake, not to mention that the person dining here is Shu Xue, the president of the group.

After Gu Xu pondered for a moment and thought of the reason, a hint of admiration showed in his brows, "Mr. Shu understands life very well."

What lighting can be more gentle and romantic than the sunset glow?

Hearing Gu Xu's praise, Shu Xue couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth. The details she specially gave her were finally not in vain.

She and Gu Xu sat down together, "I already call you brother, so don't always call me Mr. Shu. Just call me by my name. I won't be Mr. Shu for long anyway."

Gu Xu's mind was still on the tails that were following him. While he was observing downstairs through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he followed Shu Xue's words and asked a random question: "What does it mean that I can't be a person for long?"

Shu Xue thought Gu Xu was interested, so she leaned forward and said mysteriously: "Tell me the truth, brother, I'm actually just a temporary worker."

Gu Xu was amused by Shu Xue's words: "It's really novel that a temporary worker can become the president of Shu Group."

The waiters began to take away the dishes one after another. Shu Xue glanced at the sobered red wine. She stood up and walked to Gu Xu. She held a wine glass in one hand and a decanter in the other. Her every move was full of charm.

"Brother, let me toast you."

The waiter pulled out a chair and asked Shu Xue to sit next to Gu Xu.

Shu Xue's toe accidentally scratched Gu Xu's trouser leg, and a burst of electricity flashed through. Gu Xu's nerves tightened in shock.

Shu Xue, however, remained unhurried. She slowly raised the red wine glass to Gu Xu.

"Brother, please."
