Chapter 98. The new assistant.

Hanging up the phone, Gong Maye was still thinking of the way Sheng Yeting just reacted, she could not help feeling happy.

Recently, she had been getting along with Sheng Yeting for a while now, and she had a general idea of Sheng Yeting's temper. He was actually not a bad person, just too cold. Maybe it had something to do with him being alone for so long.

Thinking of that, Gong Maye curved her lips into a slight smile without knowing it herself.

Just after lunch, the girl who said she was coming for the interview arrived.

Someone led her to Gong Maye. Gong Maye found the girl looked like how she sounded on the phone, articulate, vibrant, and very young.

Gong Maye was the kind of beauty with extraordinary temperament, she was not petite or exquisite. So she envied the young girl in front of her a little.

With friendliness in her eyes, Gong Maye asked the girl: "What is your name? How old are you? Have you graduated?"

"My name is Ruan Meng, 21 years old, I already graduated from college." The girl named Ruan Meng finished her answer with a sweet smile, looking lively and talkative.

Gong Maye was very pleased with her at first sight. Her name was really interesting and distinctive!

Concealing the smile in her eyes, Gong Maye nodded and said: "We are looking for an assistant. The job involves running errands, following Gu Xingxi to his worksite and assist him. Sometimes it will require you to carry the luggage, that sort of labor, can you do it?"

The girl in front of her looked so soft and delicate, Gong Maye was a little concerned.

The girl did not hesitate at all, she immediately shook her head and said: "That's not a problem. I'm not afraid of all that. I'm very strong, and I'm not afraid of hard work. You can count on me."

Seeing that Gong Maye still had some doubt, the girl then added: "And to tell you the truth, while my mother was sick in the hospital, I had worked three jobs a day at most, I'm really not afraid of hard work!"

Gong Maye nodded, secretly admired the young girl's perseverance. Gong Maye was satisfied with her tough temperament and her affection for Gu Xingxi.

"I'm happy with your abilities. But I want to make it clear, chasing a star and working for one are two different things, you must separate them, understand?"

Ruan Meng was delighted and nodded immediately: "Yes, of course, I understand."

Just then, Gu Xingxi came into her office. Gong Maye asked him: "Xingxi, this is the assistant I found for you, called Ruan Meng, What do you think?"

"Ruan Meng, this is Gu Xingxi. I think you know of him."

When Ruan Meng saw Gu Xingxi, she couldn't get her eyes to look away, but she didn't show too much excitement. She nodded and said, "Hello."

Gu Xingxi nodded without too much expression, he said to Gong Maye: "I have no problem with her."

"Good, then it's settled. Ruan Meng, you start working tomorrow morning."

"Okay, thank you, Gong Maye, thank you Gu Xingxi. I'll certainly do my best at work."

Ruan Meng was very excited after hearing she got the job. She said goodbye to Gong Maye and left excitedly. She seemed to walk more briskly than she walked in.

Watching Ruan Meng leaving, Gong Maye secretly felt that this girl was quite suitable. Gu Xingxi seemed to be too dull, he needed a young and lively girl to take care of his life.

There was only Gu Xingxi left in the office, Gong Maye asked: "Why are you looking for me?"

"No, it's nothing. I'm going to practice now."

But Gu Xingxi just shook his head and gave a complex look at Gong Maye, finally he turned around and left.

Gong Maye was confused. She was thinking that Gu Xingxi was used to keep things to himself. Maybe because of the recent increasing work, he felt a little more pressure. Then she put this matter behind her and did not think too much about it.

She submitted Ruan Meng's CV to HR and chatted with the manager of HR for a while. While coming out of there, Gong Maye did not expect to run into the person she did not want to see.

The man was none other than Zhou Daiwei, whom she had not seen for several days.

Zhou Daiwei saw her too, his eyes suddenly became wandering, seemed to be guilty of something.

He did not come to Gong Maye and make trouble as usual, but turned to another direction and went the other way, looking rather evasive.

Seeing him like this, Gong Maye snorted secretly. She walked in front of Zhou Daiwei calmly and blocked his way.

"Mr. Zhou. What a coincidence meeting you here. I haven't seen you in a few days. You seem a lot haggard. What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Although asking the questions, Gong Maye was looking intentionally at the files Zhou Daiwei was holding.

Gong Maye saw that Zhou Daiwei was holding some materials about an endorsement for a male cosmetics brand. And she knew the brand, it was a very famous foreign brand, called MISSHA.

Zhou Daiwei also noticed Gong Maye's sight, unconsciously hid the document, and glanced at Gong Maye guiltily. "Nothing, I haven't been sleeping well recently. If there's nothing else, I have to go, Miss Gong."

After saying that, Zhou Daiwei was about to cross Gong Maye to leave. Gong Maye would not let him go easily, she immediately sneered at him with sarcasm: "Mr. Zhou. Why can't you sleep? Is it because you did too many bad things?"

Zhou Daiwei's face became livid. As he was going to retort, he suddenly remembered Sheng Chenfeng's warning. He could only glare at Gong Maye with hatred then went away.

He did not dare to make a move at Gong Maye right now. After all, things were too abnormal that night Sheng Chenfeng got arrested. He did not want to provoke some big shots and lose his job.

It wasn't easy for him to get to where he was today.

Looking at the back of Zhou Daiwei, Gong Maye was squinting threateningly. Zhou Daiwei was being too abnormal just now.

What happened that night must have something to do with Zhou Daiwei. Although she had no proof now, her intuition could not be wrong.

Perhaps, Zhou Daiwei was the mastermind, everything was planned by Zhou Daiwei. His purpose was to send her to Sheng Chenfeng's bed, so that he could not only get his revenge, but also please Sheng Chenfeng. So why not.

Realizing this, Gong Maye could not help but get angrier at Zhou Daiwei. Drugging her, manipulating her to be insulted and almost raped, and now he wanted to get away with all that by just being evasive?

It was not gonna happen! She would never let go of either one of them. They would all be punished.
