C39

The next day, when Gu Wanqing went to work at the company, she did not notice that there was an extra small tail behind her back.

Because she was worried, Mother Rong followed behind Gu Wanqing.

It was a pity that she didn't have the talent to be a puppy. As soon as she joined the company, she was spotted by LuoZiqi, who had come to the company to discuss business matters.

"Madam Rong?" Luo Ziqi was startled when he saw his mother sneakily following behind Gu Wanqing.

She thought for a while and called out to her mother when she was about to leave.

"Ah, Ziqi, why are you here?"

Seeing the surprised look on Luozi's face, she quickly stood up.

"I'm here to discuss business. Auntie, did you follow Gu Wanqing here?"

"Ah, Gu Wanqing. Right, do you know her as well?"

Seeing that Luozi had found a way for her to get out of the situation, the mother quickly followed suit.

She then looked at Luo Ziqi and asked tentatively, "You know Gu Wanqing too?"

Luozi frowned and replied cautiously, "I've met a few times. Aunty, if you have nothing else to do, I'll be leaving first."

"Alright, goodbye."

With a face full of smiles, the mother sent Luozi off, then frowned.

From the look in Luozi's eyes, he knew that they had more than just met each other.

Luo Ziqi was the current head of the Luo Family. It seemed like he was right to investigate Gu Wanqing. There must be something wrong with her.

However, it was better to find professional people to investigate such matters.

Mother Rong took out her cell phone in embarrassment and began to gather people to investigate Gu Wanqing secretly.

Gu Wanqing stepped into the elevator and finally felt like she was being watched.

As soon as she walked into the company, Gu Wanqing could feel everyone watching her and whispering to each other from time to time.

Gu Wanqing sat in her seat, confused. She then walked to the tea room to make herself a cup of coffee.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I bumped into Madam Qi." Vivian smiled apologetically, then laughed with her sisters behind her.

"What did you say?" Gu Wanqing frowned in dissatisfaction after hearing Vivian's words.

Vivian stroked her hair and said disdainfully, "Tsk, didn't I just crawl onto Young Master Qi's bed? Why is my temper so bad now? Gu Wanqing, I can't believe you put on such a show when you were in the company. You're so coquettish now that you're out of the company! "Hahaha."

"That's right, that's right, Sister Gu, I really can't tell. You really are amazing. You went to Director Rong's bed and also went to Young Master Qi's bed. I don't know if you even went to that man's bed."

"Truly shameless. I really don't know how Director Rong would fall for such a woman."

The women kept repeating the same words, trying to embarrass Gu Wanqing.

Gu Wanqing's face turned darker and darker. She hadn't expected that news of this matter would reach the company so quickly.

Their words became more and more unpleasant to listen to, and a few colleagues who weren't afraid of trouble also ran over to the teahouse to heckle.

"Enough!"

Gu Wanqing stepped forward. "Pa!" Ye Zichen slapped Vivian heavily in the face. "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh …"

"You actually dared to hit me?"

Vivian looked at Gu Wanqing in disbelief.

Gu Wanqing looked around with a haughty expression, her voice full of anger, "Don't talk nonsense about things you don't understand. You're here to work, not gossip." "If you're here and I hear you spreading rumors about me around the company, I'm sorry, but I'll see you in court."

She leaned close to Vivian's ear and whispered, "Also, Vivian, I can get Director Rong to fire you with a single sentence. If you don't believe me, try it!"

After saying that, she walked out with large strides.

After seeing the elevator slowly close its doors, Gu Wanqing leaned against the wall, exhausted.

Only the heavens knew how much courage she mustered when she said those words just now.

Actually, she didn't have much confidence that she could guarantee that Rong would really listen to her and fire them.

However, the situation had forced her to boast, scaring them into silence.

Only she knew that her legs were soft.

"Ding!" The elevator door opened and Gu Wanqing looked up reflexively. Then her body froze.

It was Luozi.

"Hai, what a coincidence."

Gu Wanqing quickly straightened up and awkwardly greeted Luozi.

Luo Ziqi nodded his head coldly, taking it as a form of greeting.

"You, why did you come back to our company?"

There was a moment of silence in the elevator as Gu Wanqing stared wide-eyed at the ground before her.

The awkwardness in the air almost suffocated her.

Luozi had no intention of talking to her at all.

Oh my god, how embarrassing, why haven't they arrived yet?

Gu Wanqing had never expected the elevator to land so quickly before.

"Bang!" Suddenly, the elevator that was descending stopped in midair with a loud bang.

Gu Wanqing looked at the numbers in panic and realized that the elevator had stopped moving, but the doors were not open.

She quickly pressed the button to open the door. "Zi Zi", the button made two light sounds before going out.

Suddenly, the elevator went completely dark.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Gu Wanqing cried out in fear.

"What, what do we do, Luozi? Are you there?" Gu Wanqing was so nervous that her words were trembling. She called Luozi's name to comfort herself.

"Yes, I'm here." Luo Ziqi knew she was afraid of the dark, so he hesitated before moving closer to Gu Wanqing.

By the light of his cell phone, Luozi found the emergency call button and pressed it.

After a series of busy calls, the security room's phone finally connected.

"Sorry, sorry. The circuit is out of order. Please wait for a few minutes. It will be done in no time." The people in the security room had already discovered the problem and sent someone to fix it.

"Alright."

Luo Ziqi calmly ended the call and then stood quietly on the spot, waiting.

Feeling the calmness of Luozi, Gu Wanqing also calmed down slowly.

In the darkness, he could not see that Gu Wanqing's face was already very red.

Ah, what happened just now was too embarrassing. What had such a big person not experienced before?

Luo Ziqi must be laughing at me in his heart for being so afraid of a power failure in an elevator.

All of a sudden, the elevator shook violently. Gu Wanqing could no longer remain calm.

The feeling of being suspended in midair was not good at all.

Gu Wanqing jumped into Luozi's arms out of instinct.

Luo Ziqi held Gu Wanqing tightly and leaned against the wall to stabilize himself.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Luo Ziqi comforted Gu Wanqing nonstop until the elevator slowly stabilized.

"Sizzle." The lights came on.

Luo Ziqi and Gu Wanqing were still hugging each other tightly. Sensing that something was wrong, the two of them quickly separated.

"Brother Ziqi …" Gu Wanqing looked at Luo Ziqi with tears of grievance in his eyes.

It was at that moment that she was reminded of her childhood.

This was how her big brother Ziqi had protected her when she was young.

As long as Luozi was by her side, she was not afraid of anything.
