Falling in Love with My Contracted Husband - Chapter 71
Chapter 71 Probing Class
However, in half a day’s time, An Zixi had already found out about Tang Jin Chen’s dismissal of his secretary. Although Big Boss Tang’s subordinates did not know what was going on, a few employees who had a good relationship with Little Zhang heard that although the boss had fired him this time, they had given him a chance to continue his studies. It was truly a blessing in disguise, how could one know that it was not a blessing?
However, An Zixi was smart and could easily guess what was going on. It just so happened that there was nothing else to do in the afternoon, so he simply came to Tang Jin Chen’s company.
Because Tang Jin Chen had just dismissed his secretary, Chen Ting, who had always been at his side, had been transferred to another department because of her ability, so no one notified her. Everyone in the company knew An Zi Xi, and secretly, everyone knew that An Zi Xi’s relationship with the boss was extraordinary, so naturally no one would stop her.
However, they were all discussing.
An Zixi knocked on Tang Jin Chen’s office door and waited for a long time before he heard a lazy voice from inside, “Come in!”
An Zixi pushed open the door and entered. He noticed that Tang Jin Chen was leaning his feet on the table and enjoying this rare afternoon.
An Zixi had already witnessed Tang Jin Chen’s laziness.
Tang Jin Chen narrowed his eyes and saw the person clearly. He couldn’t help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart, “Why is it you?”
Tang Jin Chen put his feet down awkwardly and sat down on the boss’s chair. Just now, An Zixi had actually seen his somewhat embarrassed appearance. Although his face was a little dark, Tang Jin Chen still pretended not to change his expression. He calmly asked, “What, did you call me for? What’s the matter?”
“Actually, it’s nothing much. I just heard that our boss Tang has just dismissed his secretary. Come over and see if boss Tang is angry. Don’t get angry.”
An Zixi looked at Tang Jin Chen’s pretending to be cold and smiled like a flower. After the two of them had been in contact for so long, An Zixi had already noticed it. Actually, not only was Tang Jin Chen not cold, he was also a very loving fellow. However, he was always willing to hide his concern under his cold exterior and not reveal it easily. An Zixi felt that this might have something to do with his identity.
Actually, she didn’t know that Tang Jin Chen’s tenderness would only be displayed in front of her …
After the lavender resort, her biggest harvest. Tang Jin Chen’s relationship with her had changed, An Zixi didn’t want to recall the previous conflict between the two of them. An Zixi was even willing to believe that indifference was just a layer of protection that Tang Jin Chen had placed on her. Since she couldn’t change the contract that existed between the two of them now, she decided to do her best to get along with Tang Jin Chen instead of accepting it.
In front of An Zixi, Tang Jin Chen put down his obsession and faced this woman. An Zi Xi thought that he could understand him. But in fact, Tang Jin Chen had too many unknown things that she had no way of knowing.
“I didn’t expect you to be well-informed. You already knew what happened this morning? Could there be a mole in the company?” Tang Jin Chen raised his eyebrows. Said Zhuang seemingly unintentionally.
“The mole can’t be said. President Tang doesn’t know how famous he is? Little Zhang’s story is spreading in the company.” An Zixi did not use Tang Jin Chen to greet him and sat down on his own. He said, propping his head up.
Tang Jin Chen liked An Zi Xi’s appearance very much, but he didn’t like to hear the names of other men from her mouth.
“What, did that secretary make a mistake?” Actually, An Zixi was completely aware of this question. On the way here, she had already guessed it quite well. At this time, he was just pretending to be stupid and teasing Tang Jin Chen.
“En … my perception is too bad, it’s too hard to speak!” Tang Jin Chen was hesitated for a long time before he managed to find an excuse.
Tang Jin Chen wasn’t going to tell An Zi Xi that he was angry for that reason.
He was also afraid that she would ask, after all, he didn’t know why.
“So it’s because my perception is too bad. I thought it was because that guy was too talkative!” An Zixi deliberately pretended to be careless and said.
Both of them were smart people, so there was naturally no need to explain themselves. Although neither of them had spoken clearly from the beginning to the end, their hearts were like mirrors. Tang Jin Chen naturally understood. An Zi Xi already knew why he had to dismiss his secretary. For a moment, he couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. He could only raise his cup and pretend to drink coffee to relieve the embarrassment at this moment.
That strange feeling came out again. Tang Jin Chen frowned and felt a little uncomfortable.
He only knew that he cared more and more about An Zixi …
“Since that secretary isn’t suitable, it’s not a big deal to dismiss him. However, your daily workload is so heavy. If you don’t have a secretary to help you with some trivial matters, wouldn’t you be tired to death?”
Tang Jin Chen could not tell whether An Zi Xi was joking or really caring about him. Tang Jin Chen pursed his lips and smiled, “Since you care so much about me, I’ll leave this matter to you! You are the examiner in the recruitment of secretaries!”
It was also to see An Zixi’s ability and see if he could give him another surprise. Tang Jin Chen thought playfully.
“Me? I’m afraid this isn’t appropriate!” An Zixi looked somewhat embarrassed.
Tang Jin Chen pretended to be indifferent and waved his hand, not giving An Zi Xi the chance to shy away. “Although your ability is a bit lacking, our company has recently won a big project, so there is no way we can split up manpower for such a small matter. I’ll just reluctantly use you! If there’s nothing else, you can go out now.”
An Zixi secretly laughed. This fellow really flipped out faster than he flipped through a book. Just now, he had a good chat, but now, he came to harm himself again.
“Alright! Whatever Manager Tang says is what you want. I will definitely find one that will satisfy you!” After saying that, An Zixi stood up straight and left.
Seeing An Zixi leave, Tang Jin Chen felt somewhat uncomfortable. Since An Zixi had completely understood, why didn’t she express anything?
The reason why Tang Jin Chen asked An Zi Xi to arrange the recruitment was naturally because of his own mindset. He wanted to see if there was any weight in An Zixi’s letter. Of course, he also hoped that An Zixi would have him in his heart, and that the relationship between the two of them would not be based solely on a contract.
This was also Tang Jin Chen’s impulse.
If she had enough weight in An Zixi’s heart and given An Zixi enough rights this time, she shouldn’t have chosen a female secretary for herself. No girl wants to see the man she likes hanging out with other women all day, even if it’s just for work.
It took An Zixi a long time to understand Tang Jin Chen’s little thoughts, “Good for you, Tang Jin Chen, to play with me like this!” An Zixi couldn’t help but smile.
An Zixi, in the name of Tang Jin Chen, posted the recruitment information on the Internet. Tang Jin Chen’s company was still very influential in the city, coupled with the recent downturn in the talent market, the people who were scrambling to sign up almost broke through the threshold.
There were some people arranged by other companies, but Tang Jin Chen didn’t care.
It’s just a little trick.
An Zixi sorted out the basic information of these fellows, leaving behind some outstanding ones to prepare for the final interview. After preparing all of this, An Zixi brought these materials to Tang Jin Chen’s office and prepared for him to take care of them.
When she came to the company again, Tang Jin Chen was very busy. Looks like this order’s business is really important. Even Tang Jin Chen, who had always been calm, had been busy for several days and nights. When An Zixi saw him, his eyes were red, and he didn’t know how long it had been since he had rested.
An Zixi thought that something had happened to him since he hadn’t returned in the past few days. Only later did he realize that he had been working overtime.
“Coming!” Seeing An Zixi enter, Tang Jin Chen raised his head to greet him and continued to write and draw on the paper.
“You don’t look right. Are you alright?” Originally, An Zixi was going to show Tang Jin Chen the information about these applicants, but seeing Tang Jin Chen’s posture, he knew that it was impossible for him to have such leisure.
“Nothing!” It took Tang Jin Chen a long time to squeeze this sentence out of his teeth. However, An Zixi quietly walked to Tang Jin Chen’s side and saw that Tang Jin Chen was revising the plan book. The plan book was already densely packed with handwritten fonts, and no one knew how many manuscripts had been corrected.
Seeing Tang Jin Chen’s posture, An Zi Xi did not stop, “You go ahead, I don’t have anything important to do!” As he spoke, he quietly left Tang Jin Chen’s office.
Although Tang Jin Chen did not look up, the moment An Zi Xi closed the door, he still felt a sense of disappointment in his heart. Originally, he thought that An Zixi would be able to give him a verbal care when he saw his busy appearance, but this fellow actually didn’t say anything.
President Tang, who had always been indifferent, was also proud and spoiled once.
Although Tang Jin Chen had always believed that he was not allowed to add any personal feelings to his work, his thoughts at this time did not accept the orders of his brain at all. He had long since drifted out of the door with An Zi Xi’s departure. Tang Jin Chen did not even know how he had managed to complete this business plan that gave him endless headaches.
All he knew was that by the time he was done with all this, the sky was already shining with rays of light.
The amount of mental energy consumed was astonishing. At this moment, Tang Jin Chen collapsed into his seat and didn’t want to say a word.
At this moment, there was a slow knock on the door.
“If you’re done, you can leave work yourself. You don’t need to ask me! If there’s anything else, we’ll talk about it in the morning!” Tang Jin Chen was really too tired, so tired that he didn’t want to speak any more. He said weakly to the door.
“I’ve already said it. If there’s anything else, we’ll talk about it tomorrow!” Seeing the other party’s blessing, Tang Jin Chen’s heart suddenly burst into a rage and he shouted loudly.
This time, the person outside opened the door uninvited. It was An Zixi!
In this company, Tang Jin Chen never had to worry about anyone’s face. Even those management leaders who called him brother were merciless when they were angry. However, the moment Tang Jin Chen saw An Zi Xi, his anger was naturally extinguished.
“Why are you back?” Tang Jin Chen could only pretend to be cold in front of An Zi Xi.
It was just that his eyes had already been stained with tenderness because he had been together for so many days.
It seemed that this had become a habit, a habit towards An Zixi.
“Yeah, who wants to come back this evening? But I remember that someone hasn’t eaten yet!” As he spoke, An Zixi took out a food box from his bag like a magic trick and smiled as he handed it over. Before the food box could be opened, the office was filled with a fragrance.
“How about it? Hurry up and eat!” An Zixi proudly winked at Tang Jin Chen.
Tang Jin Chen was still in a frenzied state just now, so he couldn’t feel it at all. At this moment, when he was seduced by the fragrance that filled the room, Tang Jin Chen realized that he was already so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back.
Without saying anything else, he directly opened the food box. This was a box of dumplings. It didn’t sell well, but it inexplicably aroused his appetite. It was unknown if he was really too hungry to be picky, or if the woman in front of him had already made him unable to be picky.
“Hurry up and eat while it’s hot. It’s stuffed with three delicacies!” An Zixi took another pair of chopsticks from his bag and handed it to Tang Jin Chen.
Tang Jin Chen took the chopsticks and stuffed a whole dumpling into his mouth. As he ate, he praised, “It tastes good! You made it?”
“Of course, what else do you think? Picked it up on the street?” An Zixi rolled his eyes proudly.
“Not to mention, I suddenly found a job that is especially suitable for you!” Tang Jin Chen stuffed a mouthful of dumplings and said inarticulate.
Previously, Tang Jin Chen had given off the impression that he was mature and steady. This was the first time An Zi Xi had seen him look like a hungry wolf. ‘”What kind of work?” He asked, somewhat amused.
Tang Jin Chen was also very happy, so he did not look as cold and impermanent as before and started to joke.
“Our company’s canteen’s cooking aunt! How about it? That dress should fit you well!”
Tang Jin Chen’s dining hall aunt An Zi Xi had also seen her. That aunt cooked delicious food, and not only her figure, she didn’t dare to compliment her. Tang Jin Chen said that An Zi Xi could fit in her aunt’s clothes, so he was clearly cursing her!
“I worked hard to make you dumplings, can’t you say something nice?” An Zixi pretended to be angry and put on a face.
Tang Jin Chen was silent for a long time before swallowing the things in his mouth and embracing An Zi Xi in his arms.
A pair of black eyes stared at An Zixi and replied calmly, “In my heart, you are the best …”
