C19 Matchmaking

She didn't know why, but she felt like a prey that was being eyed by a leopard. Her hair stood on end as she trembled in fear.

Gu Sisi also hadn't expected to see Huo Cheng in the company, so she thought he was looking for her. "Why are you here?"

"To see you."

Indeed.

Gu Sisi was puzzled. Although there were rumours about their relationship, it had never been made public. Huo Cheng's appearance would definitely aggravate the scandal.

Peng Die trembled in fear at Huo Cheng's words.

She had long since heard of the scandal between Gu Sisi and Huo Cheng. She was jealous of Gu Sisi's luck, which was why she had gone against her every single time, making her feel embarrassed.

When she thought about how this man had heard her scolding Gu Sisi earlier and how there was indeed some sort of relationship between them, she felt so regretful that she wanted to die.

He could only bite the bullet and laugh dryly, "Director Huo, you guys chat, I'll go back to work first."

Just as he was about to leave, Huo Cheng called out his name. "What do you mean by what you just said?"

Peng Die stopped in her tracks. "Boss Huo, I was discussing some of the company's projects with Gu Sisi …"

"Oh, really?" Huo Cheng's dark eyes looked straight at her as if he wanted to see through her. Peng Die felt uneasy and no longer dared to meet his gaze.

"What is it? Can I hear it?" Huo Cheng's voice was calm, but Peng Die felt a strong sense of oppression. He was clearly standing up for Gu Si Si.

That hateful little girl was lying! Peng Die cursed in her heart.

"Boss Huo, this is an internal matter of our company. Moreover, it's not too much to criticize an employee who made a mistake in their job, right? "What Gu Sisi couldn't do was to make a promise in the midst of negotiations. Since she sacrificed the company's interests, she should bear the responsibility."

She wasn't sure about Huo Cheng's relationship with Gu Sisi. As long as she transferred the conflict to work, Gu Sisi would have trouble arguing, and Huo Cheng wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

"What if she can fulfill her promise?"

Huo Cheng's words stunned Peng Die.

"She …" She's just a small employee, how can she complete it? "

"Based on the fact that I'm the boss of this company."

Pow!

Peng Die's last hope was dashed. From the moment she saw Huo Cheng appear, she had been guessing that the person who bought the company would be him. She didn't expect that it would really be him.

Gu Sisi had just realized that Huo Cheng had purchased her company, so it was no wonder that he would appear here during business hours.

With Huo Cheng's support, no one dared to criticize the project anymore. Gu Sisi's ears also became much more peaceful. Even Peng Die didn't dare to appear in front of her.

After getting off work, Gu Sisi stretched. She had finished her work for the week. Tomorrow, she would go out with Yang Qian to celebrate.

The phone rang and she answered, "Hello, Mom?"

Looking at the caller ID, she found it strange that her mother would never call her at work.

"Sisi, do you have time to go home this weekend?"

Gu Sisi looked at her work schedule and nodded. "Yes, Mom. What's the matter?"

"It's okay, Mom just misses you. You haven't come home in a long time."

Ever since she moved out of the house, she had been living in Huo Cheng's villa. The Gu family home was about an hour's drive away from her work, so she didn't have the time to return home.

After being busy for so long, it was time to relax. "Mom, I'll be going home tomorrow."

After hanging up, the Gu family's parents frowned.

"How is it? Will Sisi come back? "

"I'll be back tomorrow, but I didn't say anything else."

"Ai, let's wait for her to come back first."

The next day, Gu Sisi called Sister Hu at the villa and went out to take a taxi back to the Gu household. On the way, she bought a lot of food for her parents.

"Dad, Mom, why don't you guys look happy?" She put down what she was holding in her hand. "Mom, help me receive it. I'm so tired."

"Sisi, tell me the truth, did you do something behind my back and your dad's back?"

"Have the child sit down first. The journey is quite tiring." Father Gu gave her a look and took the things in Gu Sisi's hands, bringing them into the kitchen.

"Dad, Mom, what's going on?" She was confused, and she felt that something was wrong.

Mother Gu took out a crumpled newspaper. On it, there was a bold, bold headline: "Huo Cheng's mysterious girlfriend exposed!"

Gu Sisi immediately saw her own photo. She shrank back guiltily, not knowing how to explain.

She had signed an agreement with Huo Cheng, and was now Huo Cheng's fiancee in name.

Originally, it was a secretive thing to do. The only thing to blame was Huo Cheng for appearing a few times in the company and intentionally getting close to her every time, allowing him to pick on her with an ulterior motive.
