Retaliated

While she was having dinner with Special Assistant Cheng, Fang Qing was only focused on eating and listening to him. She did not notice the alertness and hint in his eyes.

In the afternoon, a notice was suddenly posted. All the girls in the office sighed and turned to look at Fang Qing with resentment. Fang Qing was baffled by those resentful eyes. She walked behind them and saw that one of the two secretaries selected. The other was Mina, who had been in the office for six years.

Faced with this result, they could not vent their anger on Mina, who was qualified, so they could only point at her and scold her bitterly. "What's the point of us working so hard? Can we compare to a newcomer who is the boss' assistant as soon as she arrives at the company?"

The others also echoed her incessantly, as if the louder they were, the more they would chase Fang Qing away and replace her.

Fang Qing was not willing to lower herself to the level of others, but that did not mean that she could allow others to tarnish her efforts and achievements.

Fang Qing slowly stood up from her chair and clapped her hands. "Seniors, what you have said is very pertinent, but as a newcomer, I still want to ask, if it weren't for me, who would you let go with sister Mina?"

After she finished speaking, Fang Qing's clapping stopped. The entire office fell into a deathly silence. The employees looked at each other, but no one dared to answer her question directly.

Among the people present, other than Mina, the secretary-general who had a longer tenure, everyone else entered the company at almost the same time. After all, Gu Cheng had not been the head of the company for a long time.

"When everyone present said these words, did you carefully consider the new lipstick pastries in your bags? Did you think about the succulent plants you raise?" Fang Qing pretended to cough seriously, "If you go, who will love these young and beautiful faces? Who will care about these vibrant succulent plants?"

There was still someone who was unconvinced. "How long have you been in the Gu Corporation? How much do you know about the Wen Corporation? Can you bear the responsibility if a small problem arises?"

Fang Qing also retaliated impolitely, "Then, when I can't bear the responsibility, it would be good for the seniors to come and interrogate me. If I ask this now, could it be that the seniors have a solution to the problem? If so, I will go and tell President Gu to replace me now."

His words directly hit the vitals of the women in the office. Those who were a little shy and blushing used the excuse of going to the toilet to slip away. Although the rest did not make any big movements, they still obediently returned to their workstations and did what they were supposed to do.

Although she was embarrassed, in reality, Fang Qing also felt that it was inappropriate for a newcomer like her to accept such an important task, so she took the opportunity to go upstairs to ask Gu Cheng, "Is it appropriate for me to go to the Wen Corporation with you? Besides, Wen Yan and I have some grudges."

Gu Cheng stopped what he was doing and closed his eyes to pinch the space between his eyebrows. "It's okay. I believe in you. It'll definitely work."

Fang Qing thought for a moment and felt that it was not right. "Was this really your idea?"

Gu Cheng was stunned for a moment. "Definitely. Otherwise, who would be able to order you around?"

Hearing Gu Cheng's words, Fang Qing could only accept it.

Just as Fang Qing was about to turn around and leave, Gu Cheng suddenly called out to her. "Raise your arm, let me take a look."

Fang Qing thought there were bugs, so she raised her arm reflexively.

Gu Cheng stared at her for two seconds before his gaze unconsciously shifted away. "Looks like I'm almost done."

Fang Qing then realized that Gu Cheng wanted to see her bruise on the horse farm, and her face began to burn. Fang Qing left in a hurry before it was too obvious.

Cheng Zheng, who was at the door, saw this scene. The corners of his mouth had unknowingly relaxed.

However, he did not notice that Gu Cheng's eyes had been fixed on him ever since Fang Qing left. It was terrifyingly cold. Cheng Zheng quickly put away his smile and returned to his usual perfect appearance as a special assistant. No one could fault him at all.
