She Can Also Be Gentle - Chapter 68
In the afternoon, Chi Nuan, who had no class, left school early and went to Henan Mountain according to the address given by He Zhen.
There is a forest park comparable to the international level in Yuncheng in Henan Mountain, and the traffic in that area is very convenient. Chi Nuan found the entrance of the villa area, reported the room number and Gu Ningzi’s name, and the front desk who had been informed by He Zhen in advance quickly informed the guard box to let him go. A security guard drove her to visit Gu Ningzi’s house very politely.
The lighting here is very good, and the warm sun shines through the transparent glass and sprinkles the room with golden splendor. Chi Nuan didn’t have time to look around and went to the kitchen first.
There are almost no traces of smoke or fire in the kitchen, but fortunately, one application is complete.
It got dark very quickly, just after five o’clock, it was all dark outside. The duck soup is in a casserole, the aroma is already overflowing, and the scrambled eggs with tomato will be served first.
That year, on the day Gu Ningzi left, she was greedy for her tomato scrambled egg rice.
Turning back to the kitchen, Chi Nuan started to rinse the vegetables in the stew. When doing this, a cautious sense of happiness lingers in my heart.
She was waiting for her return, as if this was the promised “tomorrow”.
Vegetables can’t be cooked in advance, Chinuan drained them in a basket, wiped his hands, and walked outside.
There was no sound when the slippers stepped on the thick carpet, but the person sitting at the dining table seemed to feel something, and she looked up.
…
Gu Ningzi’s long, slightly curved hair was placed on her left shoulder, and her collarbone loomed out of the sweater neckline. The gaze behind the lens has no special emotions. After catching the late warmth, they return to the tomato scrambled eggs.
She ate slowly, bite by bite, and stood there for a while: “…I don’t know if you are back, wait a minute.”
The casserole caught a big fire, threw in the leaves, and turned on the rice cooker in late warmth, filling Gu Ningzi with a bowl of rice.
She must be hungry, her mouth is so picky, and the flight meal is out of her appetite.
After the soup was finished, Gu Ningzi pointed to the empty seat on the table and motioned Chi Nuan to eat together.
The two sat and ate quietly, and as they ate, Gu Ningzi stopped her chopsticks and frowned. Chi Nuan kept paying attention to her, and couldn’t help asking: “What’s wrong? Isn’t it delicious?”
Looking at her expression, Chi Nuan wondered if her taste had changed after so many years abroad. Who knows, Gu Ningzi said, “…it hurts.”
Chi Nuan asked hurriedly: “It hurts? Where does it hurt?”
Gu Ningzi: “Toothache.”
Chi Nuan: “Assistant He said you got angry. Did getting angry cause toothache?”
Her concerned eyes were deep and heavy, and Gu Ningzi’s eyelashes trembled slightly because of unknownness: “Wisdom teeth.”
Hearing this, Chi Nuan came over: “Let me see.”
In fact, she didn’t think too much, nor did she consider whether Gu Ningzi would refuse, so she raised Gu Ningzi’s chin slightly to the light.
After half a second, Gu Ningzi opened her mouth spookyly.
Chi Nuan caught a glimpse of a small white tooth in the innermost part of her gum, and she couldn’t help but curl her eyebrows: “Is it wrong? The surrounding gums are all red and swollen…it must be very painful.”
Gu Ningzi scribbled the beginning.
Chi Nuan’s fingers fell free: “…Do you want to see the dentist?”
“I have taken medicine.” Gu Ningzi clutched the painful side of her face, used the other tooth, and continued to eat slowly.
Gu Ningzi’s oral condition is very good, and she must have regular care. Since the inception of that wisdom tooth, it is impossible not to be discovered, so why not deal with it?
Chi Nuan only thought of one possibility: Gu Ningzi was afraid of tooth extraction.
Somewhat funny, Chi Nuan sat back in his place.
After a meal, Chi Nuan restored the kitchen to its original shape and walked into the living room. Gu Ningzi leaned on the sofa to read the financial report. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Chi Nuan coming out, and she raised her chin at the coffee table.
Chi Nuan knew that He Zhen was talking about the contract.
“I submitted my resignation to the school, but I cannot officially leave until the end of the semester, so there is about one month left…”
Gu Ningzi looked at the financial report at hand, without moving her eyes: “Yes, you don’t need to come to me to report every day during this period. I will notify you in advance if I have something.”
Chi Nuan: “There are kids,…I hope you can forgive me, and I promise I will try my best to match your time.”
Gu Ningzi nodded.
Chi Nuan smiled. She turned to the last page of the contract, unscrewed the pen cap, and signed her name next to Gu Ningzi’s pre-signed name.
Gu Ningzi: “You don’t need to look at the detailed appointment anymore?”
Chi Nuan opened the second contract and also signed the name: “No need.”
Gu Ningzi reserved a lot of blank lines, probably because she wanted Chi Nuan to fill in the content by herself. Even so, she had already signed it. Obviously, it didn’t matter how she changed, she wouldn’t object, which showed her sincerity.
Not to mention, the reason Chi Nuan wanted to be her assistant was just to get closer to her.
Looking at the names of the two standing side by side, Chi Nuan’s eyes were full of smiles. Gu Ningzi supported her temple and said nonchalantly: “Let He Zhen give you my schedule. You can make an appointment for a dentist according to my time.”
… Is this a change of mind? Chi Nuan said cooperatively, “Oh.”
Gu Ningzi paused: “Let her give you Guan Luo’s contact information, and you can make an appointment with Guan Luo directly.”
Chi Nuan: “Okay.”
Gu Ningzi: “Do you have time now?”
Little Wutong could pick it up later, and Chi Nuan said, “Yes.”
Gu Ningzi gave her the financial report at her hand: “The red part, read it to me, my eyes are tired.”
Chi Nuan took it, and sat down on the single sofa next to her next to Gu Ningzi. She was about to read. When she saw it, it was densely packed with English. The content is marked in different colors, and He Zhen should have grasped the key points in advance.
Chi Nuan’s English level is not bad, but it is limited to those who are excellent in the general category. Financial reports are more of the professional terminology of this line. Only when Chi Nuan read two sentences, a few words got stuck.
Gu Ningzi: “…”
Chi Nuan: “…”
Gu Ningzi blankly picked out a Chinese book from the documents scattered beside her, and then put down the financial report with a warm face and read the Chinese investment project book.
This time it went better. Chi Nuan read a few pages softly, and took advantage of the gap between turning the pages to peek at Gu Ningzi. Gu Ningzi tilted her head, not knowing when she closed her eyes.
“…Gu Ningzi?” Chi Nuan called her name softly, but Gu Ningzi didn’t respond.
“Are you asleep?” Chi Nuan approached her.
Gu Ningzi’s breathing was very gentle, and after falling asleep, she looked obedient and unprepared, which completely coincided with what she remembered. Chi Nuan watched for a while, then held his breath and took off Gu Ningzi’s glasses.
The indoor temperature is very suitable. To be on the safe side, Chi Nuan took Gu Ningzi’s coat and put it on her lap.
Turn off the headlights, leaving only the floor lamp under the window. The soft light outlines Gu Ningzi’s shadowy figure.
As soon as he left Gu Ningzi’s house, Chi Nuan called Du Min. Du Min heard her talk about new developments in her work and screamed frequently on the end of the phone: “I knew it! Gu Ningzi was the same Gu Ningzi who stayed with us all night when we wanted to play cards! People looked cold but had a good heart. , Hasn’t changed at all!”
Chi Nuan smiled and said, “I have a lot of reference books to buy. I don’t want this kind of embarrassment to happen again.”
“What you want,” Du Min’s penetrating laughter rang out. She laughed for a while before saying to Chi Nuan, “Nuan Nuan, do you know? I haven’t heard you use it for many years. Speaking in such a happy tone, you didn’t laugh before you laughed happily.”
…Yes? Chi Nuan turned to look at the window glass of the bus. The night was fading, and her vivid eyebrows were reflected in the car window.
Chi Nuan went to Tuban to pick up Xiao Wutong. On the way, he also told him about the job change. Little Wutong said: “Mom, it’s good if you are happy, and I like Aunt Gu, you have to work hard.”
Chi Nuan smiled and said, “I see.”
The two bought some fruit outside the community, Chi Nuan carried a fruit bag in one hand, and a small phoenix tree in the other. A few steps into the community, they saw a police car driving out of it.
“Uncle Police!” Little Wutong stared intently, “What happened?”
Chi Nuan was also wondering, until he walked downstairs with Xiao Wutong and saw a group of people standing on the open ground, he didn’t know what had happened.
The male host at the door owed a debt and ran without a trace. The creditor couldn’t find him, so he could only continue to come to harass her wife. Today, the debt collection agency sent someone again, smashed the door and threatened, and was taken away by the police just after calling the police.
“It’s a mental illness! … dear, what kind of means are you talking about. If you send a mental illness to commit a crime, if you really kill someone, then you die in vain?”
Chi Nuan and Xiao Wutong looked at each other, and Xiao Wutong said with a pale face, “Mom, don’t be afraid, I will protect you.”
On the sixth floor, Chi Nuan saw that the door to the opposite door was recessed deep in the center, and the door panels were almost deformed.
Chi Nuan and Xiao Wutong took a breath.
“…Don’t be afraid, mother protects you.” Chi Nuan opened the door and ran in with Xiao Wutong eagerly.
Once you enter the house, you enter a safe world. It’s the New Year’s Day holiday, and it is rare for Xiao Wutong to turn on the TV and watch the New Year’s Eve party while eating apples.
Chi Nuan asked him: “Little Indus, have you prepared the New Year’s card for Uncle Ji?”
Mr. Ji will come to pick up Xiao Wutong tomorrow, and Xiao Wutong promised to send him a cool greeting card.
Little Wutong shook his legs: “Okay, but I can’t show it to you, this is a little secret between us boys.”
Chi Nuan: “…”
There is a time difference between He Zhen and China, and Chi Nuan watched the same time and gave her a voice call.
She told He Zhen what she was coming for, and He Zhen said, “Guan Luo? Why didn’t the boss contact him? She had a good relationship with Dr. Guan when she was at school. Suddenly the boss was sick so severely. This kind of do-it-yourself thing must be assigned. You?”
He Zhen laughed as he spoke, and Chi Nuan laughed as well. They are now colleagues. Colleagues gather to complain about their bosses. This rule seems to be universal all over the world.
Chi Nuan opened the contract that he brought back, and heard He Zhen say: “Okay, I’ll send you BOSS’s recent itinerary and the contact information of Dr. Guan later. During my absence in China, I will ask the secretary’s office to talk to you. The itinerary of your docking with the BOSS…There are still some materials that need to be handed over to you, I will organize them and send them to you.”
Chi Nuan: “Okay.”
The call has come to an end. He really wants to hang up. Chi Nuan, who is browsing the contract with a glance, suddenly said, “Wait a minute, Assistant He, wait a minute.”
He Zhen: “Huh?”
Chi Nuan: “My monthly salary… is it sure that this amount is not wrong?”
He Zhen: “That’s the case. According to the BOSS, your monthly salary is based on Spider’s current assistant president. However, this is only tentative. You are hired by the BOSS, and she will increase it later according to the situation.”
Chi Nuan said, “…but your group pays salaries, which is not the same currency as the domestic one?”
He Zhen: “So what? What’s the problem?”
Chi Nuan was really frightened. She bit her head and said, “…converted to RMB, isn’t this too much?”
After He Zhen listened, there was an obvious inhalation: “Assistant Chi, my suggestion is to stop this topic. I believe that BOSS will not be willing to hear the above questions. You should know that the salary is very high. To a large extent reflects the value of a person.”
“…” Chi Nuan looked at the consecutive zeros behind her monthly salary…This has far exceeded her annual income when she was a teacher.
She thought she took this opportunity to take care of Gu Ningzi, but she didn’t expect that it was Gu Ningzi that was actually taking care of her in this way.
