Chapter 370: Haunted House
After speaking to Counselor Zhang, if Chi Shuyan hadn’t said that she had something on, she would still be in his office at that moment. Counselor Zhang thanked her warmly and gratefully.
Counselor Zhang originally wanted to invite her to his house for a meal, but he remembered that his wife was still in the hospital, so he dropped the idea. However, he planned to invite her to have a few meals at his house in the future. His wife had the same idea. Chi Shuyan promised to go after Counselor Zhang’s wife was discharged from the hospital, and only then did he let her go.
After leaving school, Chi Shuyan took the bus to her destination. On the way, Lu Chengfu, Qi Hao and the others called her to ask if she was at school. Was the military training almost over? Could they come over this weekend?
Chi Shuyan hadn’t seen these boys recently, so she immediately agreed and told them to come tomorrow. It would be her treat.
The boys agreed excitedly.
Chi Shuyan was going to meet a.s.sistant Zhu. She called to confirm it was him before she walked over and introduced herself. “h.e.l.lo, I’m Chi Shuyan. Are you a.s.sistant Zhu?”
To be honest, while there had been so many people just now, a.s.sistant Zhu had picked out this young and beautiful girl at a glance. Her looks really stood out. When she came over and introduced herself, he paid even more attention.
He thought of what his boss had personally instructed him to do. Although his boss didn’t say much, with a.s.sistant Zhu’s years of experience under him, he knew that his boss took this matter very seriously. He had been alarmed when his boss asked him about it three times in a row.
If something hadn’t come up today, the boss would have come himself.
a.s.sistant Zhu couldn’t help but wonder about his boss’s relations.h.i.+p with the little girl in front of him. Could it be that they were uncle and niece? Otherwise, why was his boss taking this so seriously?
One of the reasons a.s.sistant Zhu thought this was because his boss had always regarded beautiful women as nothing, as if he was face-blind. Ever since he started working under his boss, a.s.sistant Zhu had seen many beautiful women and even female celebrities fawn over him,, but after all these years, he had never seen a female of any sort with his boss.
Many people in the company wondered if their boss was cold or liked men. Now that their boss had just gotten into a relations.h.i.+p, many people were still wondering if he was dating a man or a woman.
Secondly, the little girl in front of him was too young, especially when he learned from their conversation that this little girl had just entered Yanjing University this year. a.s.sistant Zhu immediately ruled out the possibility that this little girl was in a relations.h.i.+p with his boss, and was even more certain that she was a relative.
Chi Shuyan’s att.i.tude was probably too good. At that moment, a.s.sistant Zhu couldn’t help but ask a little interestedly, “Are you the boss’s niece?”
But that couldn’t be right. He knew how many nieces his bosses had. Could she be a niece from a Qi branch family whom the boss valued?
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to reply, a.s.sistant Zhu continued curiously, “Miss Shuyan, do you know that our boss, no, your uncle, has gotten into a relations.h.i.+p recently? What’s the person like? Tell Uncle Zhu, I promise I won’t spread it.”
In fact, he wanted to ask if it was a man or a woman, but he was afraid that his boss would hear about it, so he changed his question.
Speaking of which, his boss’s love life was a mystery. There wasn’t even the slightest bit of information about the boss’s partner among the group of chief a.s.sistants. If it wasn’t for the fact that the little niece in front of him seemed nice and easy to dupe, a.s.sistant Zhu wouldn’t dare gossip like this.
