After Su Jing arrived at the design department, she glanced at her colleagues. They were all busy with their work, so they simply glanced at their new colleague and continued working.

Almost all of them knew Su Jing, but Qin Feng told them not to interact with her, so they didn’t dare say a word.

Su Jing was actually glad that she did not have to interact with others.

However, Su Jing quickly lost her optimism. She had guessed that Qin Feng would not let her touch the core and important work in his company, but she didn’t expect that Qin Feng would not let her do anything at all.

Even when she tried to look for something to do independently, her supervisor and colleagues wouldn’t let her do anything.

Was Qin Feng planning to bore her to death? 

Soon, it was time for lunch. Su Jing walked out of the design department feeling bored. Along the way, she attracted a lot of attention.

Su Jing’s host was well known for pursuing Qin Feng. Previously, she often came to the company to pester Qin Feng endlessly, so almost all Qin Feng’s company employees knew her.

“Oh my gosh, this Su Jing is too thick-skinned. Didn’t she already have a new lover? Why is she still bothering President Qin?”

“I don’t understand why President Qin agreed to let her join the company.”

“Isn’t Su Jing just relying on her family background? In terms of talent, she can’t even compare to Lin Yi.”

Su Jing heard the chatter around her. She turned her head in annoyance, but those people shut their mouths and pretended as nothing had happened.

However, just as Su Jing turned her head around, the chatter started again.

“Do you even know how to talk behind people’s backs? I can hear you.”

Su Jing couldn’t stand being looked at and discussed like a monkey by a group of people, so she turned around and scolded them.

Why did she have to suffer the consequences of her host’s action? 

“Well, it is my mouth, and I can say anything I want. Does Miss Su think she could bully others into silence?” A girl looked at Su Jing arrogantly.

Su Jing turned around and looked at the girl, “Didn’t your mother teach you to be respectful? Not to gossip is the most basic manners.”

The elevator reached the ground floor, and the door slowly opened.

Su Jing was the first to walk out. The girl continued, “It’s lunchtime. So what if I tell my colleagues some gossip? Since you dared to do it, how could you stop people from talking about it?”

Just as Su Jing was about to speak, she saw a familiar figure carrying a lunch box walking in.

“Jingjing!” Gu Jue seemed to have heard what the girl said and hurried over.

When the girl saw Gu Jue, her eyes were filled with surprise. This was the first time she had seen such a handsome boy.

“You are not allowed to bully Jingjing!” Gu Jue pulled Su Jing behind him and put on a fierce expression.

Su Jing tugged at the corner of Gu Jue’s shirt, “Little Jue, it’s fine.”

She could handle it herself, and she did not want to involve Gu Jue.

Gu Jue said, “Do you think you know someone just because you heard something? You all are just jealous of Jingjing because you’re not as good as her.”

Gu Jue couldn’t stand seeing Su Jing suffer like this. In his eyes, Su Jing was the best!

Some people around them were disdainful, and some were silent. In reality, they only knew Su Jing from what they heard from others or what they saw online. No one was actually close to Su Jing.

Everyone looked at Gu Jue and thought about the rumor that Su Jing was going to give up on Qin Feng because of a new lover.

The boy in front of them must be Su Jing’s new lover.

Looking at Gu Jue’s appearance and how he protected Su Jing, everyone thought it was reasonable for Su Jing to give up on Qin Feng for him.

At this moment, Qin Feng suddenly appeared. He saw the young man that appeared with Su Jing in the supermarket yesterday. He even had a lunch box in his hand.

Qin Feng also heard the whispers of the employees. He looked at Gu Jue and found him an eyesore.

“Su Jing, this is an office, not a place for you to have a date. The next time you bring some random person to the office, you won’t have a job anymore.” Qin Feng said angrily and left the crowd.

For some reason, the people around seemed to detect a hint of jealousy. 

Why was President Qin jealous? Didn’t he dislike Su Jing?

That man’s heart was really hard to read.

Su Jing wanted to say that Gu Jue was not some promiscuous man, but Qin Feng had already walked away.

“Jingjing, I’m sorry. I’ve caused you trouble again. Actually, I just wanted to bring you lunch,” Gu Jue apologized profusely. His eyes were slightly red.

Of course, Su Jing wouldn’t blame Gu Jue. She simply smiled and patted the boy’s head, “It’s fine. You know very well that Qin Feng is just an angry maniac. Don’t take his words to heart.”

After saying that, she held Gu Jue’s hand and left the office..
