Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 396
Chapter 396 Getting used to relying on him
Back to work Du Xiaoxian feel a little strange, because people look at her eyes are not right, as if there is some vague disdain for the meaning, she never cared about these, but also did not take it seriously.
Until she overheard a conversation between two clerks in the bathroom.
“I seem to have seen Du Xiaoxian today.”
“When Mr. Gu came back, she came back.”
A belching laugh, “Do you think her little body can satisfy Mr. Gu?”
The laughter was even more unrestrained, “Maybe Mr. Gu likes that, or else there are so many beautiful women in the company, why did Mr. Gu fall for her?”
“Don’t look at her not saying anything, but she actually has the means!” The person who spoke had a somewhat secretive look, “I heard that she is in Mr. Gu’s office …”
The latter words could not be heard clearly with the low-pressure voice, but Du Xiaoxian knew that they were not good words.
“Disgusting,” in a very contemptuous tone, “thought it was a white lotus flower, but I didn’t realize it was this kind of stuff.”
She stayed in the small space, so angry that her body trembled, she thought of her mother, the village people’s contemptuous eyes, vicious words, like poison arrows rooted in the heart of the mother, at that time, the village people from the front of her house, all have to be hard to pooh a mouth to remove bad luck, if you see the mother in the yard, regardless of men and women will stand at the door with a few words of evil curses.
Every time, A-Ma quickly fled back into the house and shut the door behind her while she cowered in the corner shivering in fear, A-Ma would hold her and coax her in a warm voice, but when she woke up in the dead of night, she could always hear A-Ma sobbing in a small voice.
So day after day, year after year, A-ma increasingly emaciated, finally fell ill, sick A-ma is still as beautiful as a fairy, hated by people, did not drag a long time on the death of the world. At that time, she naively thought that she had just temporarily flown to the sky, because there was too much suffering on earth, she went to hide and would come back.
She realized that people can’t come back to life after death. When she understood a little more, she realized that her mother was killed by the gossip!
Now they’re going to use it against her too?
Only when there was no more movement outside did Du Xiaoxian come out of the bathroom. Instead of going back to the office, she went to Gu Nianbin’s place.
Gu Nianbin was looking down at the information, when he saw her come in, he smiled slightly, “Come to see me or something?”
She smiled, didn’t say anything, walked over to lie on his back, Gu Nianbin thought she was being petulant, and didn’t care, lowered his head and did his own thing again, but after waiting for a while, Du Xiaoxian still didn’t say anything, and he thought it was a bit strange, she usually wasn’t like this, so he put down his pen, backhanded the woman, hooked her into his arms and hugged her, and asked warmly, “Xian’er, what’s wrong?”
Du Xiaoxian was still silent, her hands on his waist tightened, her head rubbing against his arms, Gu Nianbin then stopped asking and just held her quietly.
Du Xiaoxian’s character like weeds, look weak, in fact, tough, from childhood to the habit of all the things are self-carrying, but now, she is accustomed to the man’s care, accustomed to relying on him, in the difficult times, to his arms to rest, to ask for warmth, to draw strength, and then set out again.
There was a knock on the door, three very soft knocks, neither of the two people in the house said anything, and the person outside the door probably didn’t dare to intrude, so he called in again.
It was a piece of information that Gu Nianbin wanted urgently, and Meng Zihe wanted to send it in after finding it, having learned from the last time, so he did it according to the full rules.
Gu Nianbin pondered a little and said, “Bring it in.”
If it was usual, Du Xiaoxian would definitely get off him numbly when she heard this, but today she was really strange, her head was buried in his arms as if she was asleep, and she didn’t react at all.
Gu Nianbin knew that she hadn’t fallen asleep because her hands had been hugging his waist very hard.
If you don’t come down, you don’t come down, Gu Nianbin is a little bit glad that she is ready to open the public?
Meng Zi He pushed open the door, and when he did, Du Xiaoxian was actually sitting in Gu Nianbin’s arms! Knowing that she didn’t dare to see anyone, she covered her face with her hair and pretended to be sleeping!
But in such a luxurious office, being hugged by the domineering president to sleep, this picture is really a bit …
Her heart was instantly pierced, and she almost bit the tip of her tongue in hatred!
Spoiled like this, does Mr. Gu even care about his lofty image?
Step by step forward, but like stepping on a ground of glass slag, Meng Zi He heart dripping blood, hate to the information in his hand ruthlessly smashed over!
“Mr. Gu, the information you asked for.” With a respectful attitude, he offered it with both hands.
“Put it down.” Gu Nianbin’s expression was faint, and he didn’t even glance at her out of the corner of his eye.
Instead, it was Du Xiaoxian who suddenly twisted her face around and looked at her silently.
Gu Nianbin saw the person in his arms move and asked gently, “Do you want to sleep? I’ll carry you inside.”
Du Xiaoxian shook her head, her eyes still staring straight at Meng Zihe.
Meng Zi He intuition is another boring stick, how often have I seen Gu General like this, that expression that voice … is simply a different person.
She grew more and more jealous and contemptuous, but Du Xiaoxian’s pair of clear eyes stared at her and she fell a little weak.
Seeing Meng Zi He’s eyes averted, Du Xiao Xian knew that she hadn’t guessed wrong, the only people who knew clearly about her relationship with Gu Nian Bin were the people in the secretary’s office, but the only person who could have spread such a rumor was Meng Zi He. Meng Zi He who had always been hostile to her!
Gu Nianbin could see that Du Xiaoxian had a different look on her face, and when Meng Zihe was out the door, he said, “If you don’t like her, I’ll tell her to leave right away.”
Du Xiaoxian hesitated, but still shook her head.
“Xian’er, what’s wrong with you?” Gu Nianbin gently stroked her back, “Who upset you?”
“Brother,” Du Xiaoxian looked at him, “Are you calling me a bad woman?”
“Of course not,” Gu Nianbin raised an eyebrow, where did the inexplicable words come from? “Did anyone say anything?”
“It’s okay,” Du Xiaoxian got off of him, “I’m going out first.”
Gu Nianbin tugged at her, “Xian’er, is there something on your mind? Tell me, I’ll solve it.”
Du Xiaoxian pulled her hand out and suddenly changed the topic, “Why don’t you take me to eat grilled fish today?”
“Okay, we’ll go if you want to eat.” Gu Nianbin looked at the woman inquisitively, she had something on her mind but was unwilling to say it, why? After all, he didn’t ask again, thoughtfully watching Du Xiaoxian walk out.
Du Xiaoxian walked straight to Meng Zihe, “Secretary Meng, I know you don’t like me, but you can’t be a human being and create rumors out of nothing …”
Meng Zihe jumped up without waiting for her to finish her sentence, “Du Xiaoxian, do you have any basis for your words, what rumor did I make up? What makes you think I’m the one who started the rumor? It’s well known that you seduced your boss, do you still need to make up rumors? You can’t be this shameless!”
“I haven’t even said what it is, and you’re right on it, don’t you have something in mind?”
“Du Xiaoxian, you’re bloodthirsty!”
“Secretary Meng, this kind of thing isn’t easy to find out, but it’s not impossible to find out,” Du Xiaoxian looked at her calmly, “If Gu Nianbin knows about it, the consequences will be very serious.”
“You check it out, and move Mr. Gu out,” Meng Zi He snorted indifferently, “Don’t think that the boss really has his eye on you, it’s just a game, and you’re taking it seriously!”
“All the things you did to me in the past can be forgotten,” Du Xiaoxian’s expression was firm, “but not this time, you have to apologize to me and admit your mistake, you haven’t experienced the consequences of maliciously slandering me, so you won’t know what that’s like.”
“So it’s not the first time you’ve been shameless like this?” Meng Zi He had just suffered a bellyful of sulkiness inside, so he took the opportunity to vent it, and said whatever he wanted, “You must have hooked up with someone else before, right? There is no shame at all, I really don’t know how your mom taught you. Do you know that your mom knows that you’ve been hooking up with other people? Or is this the style of your family, the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked …”.
Meng Zi He looked at Du Xiao Xian’s increasingly pale face, and a wave of pleasure surged in his heart, a maiden little sister dared to call her bluff, she simply didn’t know the heights of heaven!
“Slap!” A crisp sound, Du Xiaoxian struck like lightning, Meng Zihe only tried to have a painful mouth, didn’t react at all, and already received a slap on his face.
She covered her mouth and looked at Du Xiaoxian incredulously, “You, you dare to hit me?”
“If you talk about me, talk about me, what are you doing talking about my ama?” Du Xiaoxian looked at her with a cold face, the so-called courageous person has no fear, she is timid and deceivable, but when pushed, rabbits will also bite.
Being slapped by an odd-job girl was simply a strange shame, Meng Zi He couldn’t care less about his elegant image, and screamed and wanted to pounce on her and fight with her.
Du Xiaoxian seldom fights, but is very experienced in dodging, a turn, Meng Zihe crashed into the file cabinet, this time the commotion was big. All the people in the secretary’s office came out to see, and the door to the president’s room opened, Gu Nianbin stood in the doorway with a sullen face, “What’s going on?”
Meng Zi He hurriedly complained, “Mr. Gu, Du Xiaoxian hit someone.”
Gu Nianbin’s sharp gaze circled around her face, and sure enough, he saw shallow fingerprints. He hurriedly surveyed Du Xiaoxian again, and only let his heart drop when he saw that she was unharmed.
“There’s always a reason why she hits you, right?” Gu Nianbin frowned slightly, “What did you do to her?”
Meng Zi He was so aggrieved that she wanted to hit the wall, obviously she was the one who was beaten, but listening to Mr. Gu’s tone, it was like she was to blame! Is there any justice here?
“I didn’t do anything, and she hits people!”
“Yes?” Gu Nianbin twisted his head to look at Du Xiaoxian, he had never seen her like this before, although she stood there quietly, the firmness and stubbornness between her brows could not be underestimated. The soft little grass suddenly became tough, making everyone present a little surprised.
“I hit her because she cursed my ama.”
Gu Nianbin’s face sank like water as he looked coldly at Meng Zihe, “Disrespecting the deceased, no wonder she beat you.”
Hearing this, everyone realized that Du Xiaoxian’s ama was no longer alive. While sympathizing, they wondered why Mr. Gu knew so much about Du Xiaoxian’s affairs, could it be that he really didn’t just have a little fun with Du Xiaoxian?
Anyone could see that Gu Nianbin was favoring Du Xiaoxian.
Jia Nan hesitated for a moment, said, “Secretary Meng, Xiao Xian’s temperament character and then easygoing, never quarrel with people, maybe you speak some not too pay attention to … I think even if it, after the head up and see, make a big mess for no one is good.”
Meng Zi He is a smart person, although she received a slap, but in front of Gu Nianbin, she could not get any better, so she had to swallow her anger, angrily glared at Du Xiaoxian, and sat back to her seat.
Gu Nianbin wanted to pull Du Xiaoxian in to ask for a closer look, but she threw her hand away, “Secretary Meng, you must apologize to me and my amah!”
“Joke, you hit someone and I didn’t even pursue it, why should I apologize?”
“Because you vilified me and disrespected my ama.”
Gu Nianbin heard some understanding here and asked Jia Nan, “Are there any rumors in the company lately?”
Jia Nan had guessed that those news were passed out by Meng Zi He, and some things were said with a nose, as if she had seen it with her own eyes, and even she almost believed it to be true, and now that Gu Nianbin had asked, she didn’t dare not to say it, and poured it all out one by one.
Gu Nianbin laughed back in anger as he listened, walked over and hugged Du Xiaoxian, saying in a warm voice, “I’ll take care of this matter, okay?”
Du Xiaoxian looked at him and slowly nodded.
Gu Nianbin turned his head, his gaze instantly cold, and looked at Meng Zihe, “Secretary Meng, come in for a moment.”
