Gu Cheng immediately ordered Cheng Zheng, “Call her up. You go in person.”

Fang Qing had been busy for the whole morning, and it was almost noon. She was already dealing with the work in the morning and thinking about what to eat for lunch.

After working at Gu Enterprise, she found that the employee benefits here were excellent, and the taste of the employee’s restaurant was comparable to that of the restaurants outside.

After a series of thoughts, Fang Qing finally chose the classic Sichuan cuisine. When she got up, she saw Cheng Zheng enter the door. Although Fang Qing did not know who he was here to look for, she had a bad feeling.

After Cheng Zheng entered, the employees of the Secretary Department all looked at him with burning eyes, as if he was some kind of rare treasure. However, everyone knew that these eyes were looking at his boss, Gu Cheng, through Cheng Zheng.

Cheng Zheng ignored these eyes and walked straight to Fang Qing and said to her, “Miss Fang, President Gu has invited you to his office.”

This sentence did not seem to be an invitation but a punishment. Fang Qing could only put down the work in her hands and the delicious food that was about to arrive and follow him into the elevator.

Seeing the number on the elevator slowly increase, Fang Qing’s heart began to beat faster. In the end, she could not help but ask Cheng Zheng, who had an upright expression on his face, “Special Assistant Cheng, may I ask why President Gu is looking for me?”

Cheng Zheng also revealed a confused expression. “Miss Fang, I’m not too sure either, but the boss doesn’t look too well.”

Fang Qing was even more anxious now. Her mind was racing as she tried her best to search for any signs that she might have angered Gu Cheng yesterday or today. Could it be that his horse was really injured and wanted to settle scores with her? Could it be that he actually liked to be gentle?

With a conflicted feeling, Fang Qing walked into Gu Cheng’s office. After entering, Cheng Zheng left and carefully closed the door.

Fang Qing felt the pressure as soon as she entered. Gu Cheng’s expression was as cold as ice as if he would freeze Fang Qing to death in the next second.

“President Gu… you were looking for me?” Fang Qing asked carefully.

Gu Cheng answered after five seconds, “You still know you’re my employee? You’ve been in the company for a long time, and you still don’t know how to come up and look for me. Do you still see me as your boss? Why don’t you just make the arrangements for this company?”

Fang Qing was baffled by his words. She had come to the company early in the morning and had been busy the whole morning. Now, she was actually scolded by her immediate boss for not coming up to look for her. This immediately ignited the anger in Fang Qing’s heart, “Are you crazy? Which rule in the company says that I have to come up to look for you to make the arrangements for me?”

“I worked at my desk for a long time in the morning. Even though I was very hungry, I still had to wait until noon before I had time to eat. It was finally noon, but you called me up without any reason just to let off some steam?

“Is it because you can’t work without seeing me?

“Or is it because you think I don’t know what to do at work without seeing you?”

The series of questions dumbfounded Gu Cheng. It seemed to be the same logic when he calmed down and thought about it. He was indeed a little aggressive and forced. Just as Gu Cheng was about to give in, Fang Qing continued to speak, “Besides, President Gu, what kind of relationship do you think we have?

“Within three months, we can still be said to be subordinates or so-called unmarried couples. After three months, we probably won’t have any contact anymore in this lifetime. Is that why you plan to oppress me during this period of time?”

After saying this, Fang Qing felt a little regretful. But, thinking carefully about the past few days, other than waking up to find Gu Cheng hugging her rather frivolously at the beginning, most of the time, Gu Cheng had taken care of her feelings, even if they could not get along for a long time in the future, it was not bad to end their relationship as ordinary friends. And her words just now seemed to have cut off this last possibility.

After hearing Fang Qing’s words, Gu Cheng slowed down for a long time before he looked in Fang Qing’s direction and said, “Do you really hate me that much?”

Fang Qing was about to deny it when Gu Cheng beat her to it. “You can leave now. I won’t bother you anymore.”

Having said that, Fang Qing had no choice but to leave.

When Fang Qing went downstairs, she thought that she should be happy about it. After all, they had only been together for three months. It would be awkward if she left with more feelings. However, her performance was not as happy as she had imagined. She still felt empty in her heart.
