Quick Transmigration: Even Extras Want to Be Leading Actresses

Chapter 258 Theme Competition: The President's Sunny Day (8)

The next morning, Shi Qi didn't see Qin Ruo. He instructed the security guards and the servants not to open the door for anyone else, and then went to work.

Upon arriving at the office, Shi Qi was nearly bumped into. She quickly pushed the person away and looked down to see that it was indeed Xia Qingtian again.

"If you can do it, do it; if you can't, leave. What if you run into a customer?"

Shi Qi's accusations were merciless, and several employees nearby were whispering among themselves.

Xia Qingtian felt that everyone was mocking her, so she blushed and remained silent. She hadn't done it on purpose.

Shi Qi, wanting to avoid seeing it, quickly went into her office, where she saw Qin Ruo organizing documents.

However, her attitude today was completely different from last night; her voice was serious and her expression was cold: "Good morning, Mr. Fu."

Hehe, Shi Qi thought to herself, things are changing too fast.

Such a turn of events was too abrupt; it would have taken at least a few months to make sense, but it happened in just one night.

With such a contrived plot, will anyone actually watch it?

Shi Qi flipped through the documents on the table, categorizing them according to their importance and urgency, making them much more organized than before.

For the rest of the day, Qin Ruo handled company matters with the same ease as in the morning, acting like a professional manager.

Shi Qi benefited from this, and handling things became much easier than before, giving her time to secretly study.

These days he has been trying his best to figure out the company's affairs, but his colleagues still gossip behind his back, thinking that the president is not as capable as before.

There's nothing that can be done about it, since Shi Qi has never been a CEO before.

While I was studying, Xia Qingtian ran in again to wipe the table and move chairs.

Shi Qi found it a bit strange. Logically speaking, cleaning the office should be done before everyone arrives at work. What company's cleaning staff would clean when people are coming and going?

I don't know what the logistics department was thinking.

But that's normal, since the plot always has to involve Xia Qingtian and herself.

Shi Qi's gaze swept over Xia Qingtian, which was caught by Qin Ruo.

Qin Ruo was somewhat indignant. How could such an ordinary woman have captured the CEO's heart? She was so angry that she turned and ran away.

Xia Qingtian also felt Shi Qi's meaningful gaze, and felt goosebumps all over his body. Was the president still thinking about how to fire him?

"You can go now. Please make sure the office is cleaned before work hours in the future."

Shi Qi found an excuse to kick Xia Qingtian out as well.

For the rest of the morning, Shi Qi didn't see the two people again. He was happy to relax and immerse himself in the joy of his work.

Gu Shijiu slept until noon, and when she opened the door, she saw An Zhi and Gong Ye sitting on the sofa, looking at each other in silence.

"Good morning." Gu Shijiu completely forgot what she had done last night and greeted the two of them.

Anzhi cried for most of the night, and her eyes were still swollen.

Gong Ye snapped at Gu Shijiu impatiently, "Have you made enough of a scene? Go home now."

Gu Shijiu sat down on the sofa: "Let's get some food first, I'm hungry."

It wasn't that she didn't want to go back, but she simply didn't know where she lived; all she knew was that her name was Fu Yunxiang.

I have quite a few people in my phone contacts, but I can't just ask everyone I meet where they live; that would be too strange.

Seeing her attitude, Gong Ye's temper flared up: "No one cooks at home, do you know how to cook?"

Gu Shijiu was somewhat surprised: "You live in such a big house, you look like a rich person, how can it be a problem if no one cooks for you?"

Gong Ye felt she was mocking him, while An Zhi felt targeted and quickly stood up: "Aunt Fu, let me do it. I'm the one who always cooks at home."

Gu Shijiu was even more shocked: "You're making a teenage high school student cook every day? Doesn't she have to study?"

Although she was a poor student, she knew very well that most parents wouldn't make high school students do chores.

This strange adoptive father and daughter seem to have a good relationship and are quite wealthy, but it's unexpected that the child has to do chores.

An Zhi spoke up for Gong Ye: "Aunt Fu, I like to cook myself, I don't need anyone else, and Uncle also likes to eat my cooking."

"Oh, then go ahead and do it." Gu Shijiu didn't know how to be polite.

Gong Ye, standing to the side, glared and said, "Fu Yunxiang, don't go too far."

"What's wrong with me?" Gu Shijiu asked, confused.

An Zhi seemed afraid that the two of them would start arguing, so she got up and went into the kitchen to busy herself: "It's getting late, I'll make some noodles."

Gu Shijiu said with great envy, "She is so filial. Gong Ye, you are very lucky to have such a well-behaved daughter."

Upon hearing this, An Zhi's hand trembled, and all the prepared side dishes fell into the pot, splashing boiling water onto her hand and making a noise.

Gong Ye rushed into the kitchen and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

An Zhi pouted: "It's nothing serious, I just got scalded by water."

Gong Ye noticed that her right index finger was a little red, so he immediately grabbed her hand and put it under the tap to rinse it.

The two chatted in hushed tones for a few more minutes. Gong Ye told An Zhi to be careful, and as they were talking, the noodles were overcooked.

Ignoring their conversation, Gu Shijiu sat at the table with her legs crossed, waiting for her meal.

The noodles didn't look very appealing when they were served, and neither An Zhi nor Gong Ye could eat them.

Gu Shijiu didn't mind. Although she loved good food, she could also eat bad food. She finished the noodles in no time.

Seeing that the other two bowls were untouched, she accepted them with a smile, adhering to the principle of not wasting food.

After finishing eating, he wiped his mouth and said, "Mmm, it tasted good."

An Zhi and Gong Ye had never seen a woman who could eat so much in their lives. They looked at each other, speechless.

After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Shijiu decided to go for a stroll outside, hoping to find some other clues. He decided to leave the strange father and daughter alone for the time being.

With that thought, she tucked her phone into her pocket and walked away nonchalantly, leaving behind the words, "I'll come back tonight."

Gong Ye frowned: "What are you doing here?"

"Aren't we engaged? It's normal for me to come over, right?" Gu Shijiu didn't want to admit that she didn't know where to stay.

As soon as she left, Anzhi started crying again: "Uncle, Aunt Fu seems to hate me."

Gong Ye felt a pang of guilt as he watched her cry: "Don't worry, I'm your guardian, and I won't abandon you even after we get married."

An Zhi stared intently at Gong Ye with her dark eyes: "You absolutely have to get married."

"This is an adult matter. You're still a child, don't meddle in it," Gong Ye coaxed her.

“I’m not young anymore, I know everything.” An Zhi disagreed. “I know you married Aunt Fu because of her family background! She’s just a leader in the Housing and Construction Bureau.”

An Zhi was extremely sad. If it weren't for the accident at home, she would have been a little princess too.

In that case, wouldn't I be worthy of my uncle...? An Zhi hid in the guest room and cried silently.

While comforting her, Gong Ye pondered his own thoughts. Fu Yunxiang's "Fu" wasn't just about having several family members involved in politics...
