Chapter 691 First Day at Work

"There's no life." Gu Xiuyu said, "My father just told me. I'll send you the company address later. Tomorrow, you can come directly to the company tomorrow."

"You're willing to let someone who knows nothing become your assistant?" Yu Xixi nervously clutched her phone.

She had studied dance abroad and knew nothing about business management. If she were to be his assistant, she would only cause him a lot of trouble.

Thinking of this, Yu Xixi felt very apologetic towards him.

"If it's too difficult, I can ask my dad to call Mr. Gu again and cancel their arrangement. You don't need to worry, my dad listens to me. As long as I cry, make a scene, or threaten to hang myself, he'll agree to anything," Yu Xixi continued.

Gu Xiuyu sensed her worry and chuckled softly, "It won't be difficult. My abilities should be enough to be a good teacher for your future path."

"Then I'll see you tomorrow."

"Yes, get some rest early and don't overthink things."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Yu Xixi hugged her phone and giggled. In fact, she had fallen in love with Gu Xiuyu at first sight when she saw him at the Ye residence. Later, on the way back, she listened to Yu Wenzhou's praise of Gu Xiuyu, and her heart grew even more curious about the man she had met only once.

When she returned home, she had actually overheard Yu Wenzhou's conversation with Elder Gu. With selfish intentions, she silently prayed that Gu Xiuyu would agree to her working at Gu's.

When she didn't receive a response after sending the message, her heart ached, and she even doubted her own inadequacy. But after this phone call, she was filled with anticipation for her future.

Yu Xixi excitedly stood up from the bed. Standing barefoot in front of the wardrobe, she rummaged through the various clothes. She usually liked them, but now she couldn't pick out a suitable one.

"What kind of girl does he like?" Yu Xixi bit her nails, looking at the all the beautiful dresses in front of her, she was stumped.

If only she had secretly asked her dad to inquire, then she could cater to his preferences, and maybe he would like her too.

Yu Xixi took out all the clothes and threw them on the bed. She tried matching them, but she was so sleepy that she couldn't pick out what to wear tomorrow.

Her hand was still stroking the clothes, her eyelids were heavy, and her head tilted as she fell asleep on the clothes.

The next day.

"Ah~"

A scream echoed through the Yu residence, startling the birds resting on the trees, causing them to circle in the air.

Yu Wenzhou rushed to Yu Xixi's room door, knocking on it and asking, "Xixi, what's wrong?"

The door opened, and Yu Xixi, with her hair in a mess, appeared. "I'm late, it's all your fault, why didn't you wake me up!"

Yu Wenzhou was pushed aside and looked at the flustered Yu Xixi.

"Should I call Gu Xiuyu and tell him you'll be arriving late?"

"No!"

Yu Xixi's head peeked out from the bathroom, and she waved her small fists, warning Yu Wenzhou.

"Alright, I won't say anything. Hurry up and wash up, I'll personally drive you there later." Yu Wenzhou shook his head, watching his daughter fall for Gu Xiuyu.

He had said it before, that his daughter would definitely like the person he favored.

Half an hour later, Yu Xixi stood under the Gu Corporation building with dark circles under her eyes.

As soon as she entered, she walked out in disappointment.

Yu Wenzhou hadn't left yet. Seeing Yu Xixi's expression, he immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong? Did that Gu Xiuyu kid scold you?"

"No, he's not at the company today. His assistant said he went to the Ye Corporation and probably won't be back at the company all day today," Yu Xixi explained with a hint of grievance.

They had agreed last night, so how could he go to work alone?

Yu Wenzhou's heart ached seeing his beloved daughter's crestfallen face. He immediately smiled and said, "This is easily solved. I'll take you to Ye's now."
