Cinderella Innocent and Boss Charming - Chapter 442

Chapter 442 Things are not what they used to be

These things that happened to Gu had somehow reached Lu Ding Shen’s ears.

Knowing that his precious daughter had suffered such a big wrong, he stormed out, couldn’t stay in Yawan, didn’t listen to Lu Haochen and Xiao Meiyuan’s advice, and rushed to G City by plane in a rage.

He wanted to bring Du Xiaoxian back to Yawan and let her live a good life by his side. After he got well that time, he took Du Xiaoxian and Gu Nianbin to Daliang Mountain to pay homage to Yu Yuniang, and swore in front of her grave that in this life, he would not let his daughter suffer half a bit of injustice again.

But not long after, Gu Nianbin disappeared, and in the face of his daughter’s sadness, he could do nothing but hurt in his heart, but this time, he had the ability to protect his daughter and no longer let her be hurt.

But Du Xiaoxian’s attitude is still the same as last time, refusing to go back to Asia Bay with him. Lu Dingxian said, “I don’t want to go back to Yawan.” But Du Xiaoxian was not moved by Lu Dingxian’s words, and she just sat quietly. Just sitting quietly, without saying a word, see her oil and salt, bent on waiting for Gu Nianbin back, Lu Dingzhen hate to slap her awake, but where to go, since the gas a half dead, Du Xiaoxian still indifferent.

This stubbornness is exactly the same as when he was young, as long as it is recognized, ten oxen can not pull back.

Lu Ding Shen had no choice but to sit and say nothing as well.

Half a minute, he said, “OK, dad does not force you, but there is a thing, you have to change this last name, change the last name, I can add your name to the family tree. Your mom has been talking about it for a long time, I see you are quite busy, and I haven’t said anything to you. This time I came up here, your mom is talking to me about this again, I want to ask you what you mean first.”

“I don’t have a problem with it, I’m your daughter, I should have taken your surname in the first place.” Du Xiaoxian saw that her father didn’t force her to go, all things are negotiable, “It’s just that I settled in Daliangshan, am I going back to do the formalities?”

“No, as long as you agree, Dad will do the rest.”

Du Xiaoxian said, “I agree ah, calling Lu Xiaoxian is also quite good.”

Lu Ding Shen finally had a hint of a smile, “Okay, then tomorrow dad will ask someone to do it.”

Du Xiaoxian didn’t expect her father to be so efficient, and within two days the matter was settled, and she had a new ID card with a newly changed name: Lu Xiaoxian.

Even though the name was changed, the staff still called her Mrs. Gu as they always did.

Du Xiaoxian likes to be called this way, it feels like Gu Nianbin has never left. She remembers when she first heard someone call Mrs. Gu for the first time when she first came back from the Gulf of Asia, she didn’t come back to her senses, and it was only when Gu Nianbin poked her that she reacted and agreed with a red face, but it was a really good feeling, proud and satisfied.

Sometimes, Gu Nianbin also jokingly called her Mrs. Gu, with a hint of teasing, but his eyes are full of favor. At that time, she lived a simple life, how wanton. She felt that everything was beautiful, the sky was blue, the clouds were white, the sun was bright, and all the people who loved her and the people she loved were fine.

But in the blink of an eye, everything changed, the one who mattered most was gone, her sky didn’t collapse, but the color changed, the sky was gray, the clouds were gray, the sunshine was gone, there was only the wind and the rain and she was struggling.

Lu Ding Shen came in with a bunch of ledgers and placed them on her desk, “Xiao Xian, I just casually flipped through them, your company’s accounts are in a mess.”

Lu Xiaoxian looked at him in surprise, “Dad, how do you look at our accounts?”

“Dad is trying to help you,” Lu Ding Shen said in disbelief, “You don’t know much about it, and you don’t have a reliable person around you yet, if dad doesn’t help you, who will?”

“But that’s not very nice, after all, we’re two different companies.”

“Lu’s now handed over to Haochen in the management, I retired to the second line, to give my daughter as a counselor to keep an eye on, who dares to say anything?”

“No, I’m afraid it’s not good for Grandpa Nien to know.”

“I’m afraid that if he’s not happy, I’m still not happy!” Lu Ding Shen slightly huffed, “If he is not happy, I will take you away, you have been a cow and a horse for their Gu family and have suffered a lot, what has he done? What did he do? Didn’t he say he loved you? Just watch you being bullied?”

Lu Xiaoxian argued, “Dad he’s not well …”

“Calling him eunuch in front of me,” Lu Ding Shen became even more angry, “I’m your father!”

“Eunuch, he’s not in good health, it’s not like you don’t know.” Lu Xiaoxian saw that her father’s face did not look right, so she had to coax, “Alright, don’t be angry, I won’t say anything anymore, okay?”

Lu Ding Shen lightly grunted, sat down, began to look through the account book, while looking at it, said, “Xiao Xian, finance is the core department of the company, you must find a reliable person to manage. I can’t believe that somehow the money was transferred out, and I can’t find the person who transferred the money, no one will believe me when I say it, I think that manager Cai, it’s better to change it. Or else something like last time will happen again.”

“It’s none of Manager Cai’s business, he’s a veteran of Gu’s, Nianbin trusts him.”

“Daughter ah, the hearts of the people, a lot of things are you can not see, seemingly loyal, in fact, just waiting for an opportunity, the opportunity arrives, his heart will move.” He paused for a moment, and then said, “In fact, everyone is changing, also including your own self, only the change is very small, can’t see it, when you look back after a period of time, you will realize it.”

Lu Xiaoxian lowered her eyes, pondering, Gu Nianbin also said that the human heart is the most difficult thing to guess in the world, so many things have happened recently, Gu Guangxian asked her to wipe her eyes to see the people, could there really be any undercover agents or traitors in the company? She frowned, Manager Cai … he is the company s top management, it is easy to transfer a sum of money on the account, could it really be him?

But it was a moment, she denied it again, she couldn’t just randomly suspect people based on her father’s words alone. Manager Cai was a company patriarch, and the way he was anxious that day, it didn’t seem like he was faking it.

She glanced at Lu Ding Shen and said, “Dad, I’m going out.”

“Well, go ahead,” Lu Dingxian responded carelessly without even lifting his head.

Lu Xiaoxian went to the finance department to find Manager Cai and asked him why he let Lu Dingxian take away the account book.

Manager Cai was a bit embarrassed and said, “Mrs. Gu, I also think it’s not right, although Mr. Lu is your father, I still have to adhere to the company’s system, so I categorically refused, but Mr. Lu insisted on seeing it, and it just so happened that Mr. Cheng came over to have something to do, and he saw us arguing, and he was probably afraid that it would be difficult for you, so he agreed to it.”

So that’s what happened, Lu Xiaoxian smiled and said, “Manager Cai, you did the right thing, next time my father is unreasonable, you call me and I’ll handle it.”

When she said this, Manager Cai was embarrassed and said, “Actually, Mr. Lu is also for Mrs. Gu’s good, it’s just that he’s not a company man after all, so …”

“I know, you get busy, I’m leaving.” Lu Xiaoxian carefully observed Manager Cai, and the more she looked, the more she felt that he wasn’t some undercover mole.

Coming out of the finance department, she stood in the corridor and looked at the general manager’s room with some hesitation. Since that day in the lounge, Cheng Ruichang bumped into her freshly showered appearance, see each other again, Lu Xiaoxian is a little uncomfortable, Cheng Ruichang although nothing happened, but in the past few days also not too to go to her place, there is something to ask Mary or Meng Zi He transmission.

In fact, she was wrapped in a bath towel, and did not let him see anything, but the heart is just a little twisted, Gu Nianbin is not there, she is even more clean, there should not be a single mistake.

It’s just that when they were like this, it rather seemed as if there was something, even Meng Zi He asked her, “Xiao Xian, did you have a falling out with Cheng Rui Chang, why did he rarely come over these days?”

She had to say, “Probably busy.”

Probably because her discomfort made Cheng Rui Zhang a little uncomfortable as well, so she simply avoided suspicion.

Lu Xiaoxian felt that she had made a bit of a fuss about herself, so after thinking about it, she went to the general manager’s room.

Pushing the door in, Mary wasn’t in her seat, so she walked straight in, the door inside was half open, before she reached the door, she saw Cheng Rui Zhang lazily nestled in a big chair, turning a ballpoint pen in his hand, the thin and long pen was rapidly turning around between his slender fingers, only to see the light and shadow darting and flickering, like an unusually dexterous little snake, head to head and tail to tail, it was very beautiful.

Cheng Rui Zhang did not wear glasses, so look over, but with the usual some different, his look is very calm, his eyes staring at the pen in his hand, his eyes sharp, the corners of his mouth pursed lightly, this look … Du Xiaoxian heart moved, his look is actually some like Gu Nianbin!

But after a moment of dismay, she came back to her senses. She knew that she was thinking about Gu Nianbin again, and that she had once mistaken Lu Haochen for Gu Nianbin when she was in Yawan because she missed him.

Coughing, Lu Xiaoxian finally pushed the door in, “Mr. Cheng, you’re quite leisurely.”

Cheng Rui Zhang raised his eyes to see that it was her and smiled, picking up his glasses and putting them on, “Yes, I want to be lazy today. What is Mrs. Gu looking for me for?”

Lu Xiaoxian sat down and said, “Mary’s not here, huh?”

“Probably went to the bathroom,” Cheng Rui Chang asked with a smile, “Are you looking for her, or me?”

“Looking for you,” Lu Xiaoxian surveyed the room, she seldom came over here, if something happened, it was Cheng Ruichang who went over to look for her, and she remembered that in the past, when Zhou Ting was around, she used to bring her over to ask Nina for food. In the blink of an eye, things were different, many things were different.

Mary replaced Nina, Meng Zi He replaced Zhou Ting, Cheng Rui Chang replaced Shao Bo Qing, and she, Gu Nian Bin!

Seeing that she was a bit frozen, Cheng Rui Chang reached out and waved his hand in front of her, “Hey, Mrs. Gu, did you come over here just to gawk at me?”

Lu Xiaoxian was stunned again, he called her Mrs. Gu, but this tone of voice carried a teasing … déjà vu for her.

She shook her head, it must be the self-magic, why did she keep having such strange thoughts.

As if to cover up, she pointed to the furnishings in the house and said, “You haven’t changed a bit in this house, it used to be like this when Mr. Shao was around.”

“Oh, I see,” Cheng Rui Chang said with a smile, “So just now Mrs. Gu was reminiscing about the past. No wonder there was no reaction when I called you.”

“No, I just think time goes by so fast, it used to be one group of people and now it’s another.”

“There’s a saying: there’s no such thing as an unending banquet.” Cheng Rui Chang turned the pen in his hand as he said, “There’s also a saying: a camp made of iron is a soldier under running water. Remembering the past is nostalgia for old times, but one must ultimately look forward.”

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the pen and suddenly said, “Nianbin used to like to spin the pen and play with it too.”

“Is that so? Mr. Gu still has this hobby? But a lot of people like to play with this when they go to school, spinning their pens while listening to lectures, so that they don’t feel so boring.” He paused for a moment and said, “Mrs. Gu, you didn’t come here to find me for idle chit-chat today, did you? I remember you have a lot of work to do every day, and your time is precious.”

Lu Xiaoxian could understand his humor now, and said with a smile, “I do have something to find you, I heard Manager Cai say that you approved him to give my father the ledger? That’s not good, is it?”

“Yes, it’s not good indeed,” Cheng Rui Chang threw his pen on the table and straightened his face, “But when I think about it, Mr. Lu is also a resounding figure in the business world, so if you have him to help you, you’ll have a much easier time of it, and besides, don’t you suspect that there’s a mole in the company? With Mr. Lu, what kind of undercover agents can’t be found out? If other companies want to hire such a powerful character, they often need several million dollars a year, and they may not be able to get it, we have the resources to not use them, isn’t it a pity? Anyway, he is your father, and won’t harm you.”

When Lu Xiaoxian heard this, she thought it was somewhat reasonable. Her father had been in the business world for decades, he was well known and experienced, and with his help, it should be easier for her.
