Quick Travel: Destiny for Thirty Lifetimes

Chapter 181 Is Office Romance Permitted? (5)

Ignoring Lian Qingyang's news, Gu Quechen dried his hair, turned on the airplane mode of his phone and went to bed. He simply made some noodles before taking a shower. He was not a person who paid much attention to food, and he didn't like to waste too much time on it even if the food was delicious.

Gu Quechen learned the consequences of ignoring the little scoundrel's news early the next morning. He was the first one to arrive in the department. Not long after he opened the office door and sat down, there was a knock on the door. After three knocks, it was Lian Qingyang who pushed the door open.

"Why are you here so early? Do you have any questions?" Gu Quechen only looked up at the person who came, then lowered his eyes and continued to read the documents.

A cup of steaming hot tea was brought to him, accompanied by Lian Qingyang's greeting: "Manager Gu, what time did you go to bed last night?"

Gu Quechen accepted it with pleasure and took a sip of tea before speaking: "Don't talk about personal matters during working hours."

Lian Qingyang took a step forward, put his hands on the table, and boldly leaned over to expose him: "It's only a little after seven o'clock, it's not time to go to work yet."

The man in front of him, who was reading the document carefully, slowly raised his head. The two looked at each other across the table. At this distance, even Qingyang could make out Gu Quechen's mouth shape without hearing his voice: "Now is my working time."

Such perfect lips, uttering such cold words.

Before Lian Qingyang could move away, Gu Quechen spoke again. He casually took half of the documents from the pile beside him and pushed them in front of Lian Qingyang. He was as ruthless as a boss who only cares about profit and not emotion and exploits labor. "Since you have so much free time, take these documents back and sort them out and send them to me one by one. I don't require them to be submitted before the end of the day. You can also go home and work on them. Just give me as many as you have sorted out before going to bed."

Lian Qingyang protested, "Oh my God, how can there be such a mean boss? You might as well take my life." But he honestly took the documents with his hands. There were not many documents, but each one was quite thick.

He found a seat and sat down. He flipped open the top one and glanced at it. He turned his head to glance at Gu Quechen in surprise, then flipped through the other documents and asked in confusion, "Manager Gu, these documents?"

Without even looking up, Gu Quechen snorted, "Hmm," and said, "These are the project-related materials you'll need for your upcoming business trip. Based on the requirements of the top document, integrate the ones below and extract the main content."

"A business trip?" Lian Qingyang sat up straight and turned his gaze to Gu Quechen, his eyes full of expectation. "Manager Gu, are you going on a business trip? Have you arranged your entourage?"

Glancing at Lian Qingyang, who was suddenly excited, Gu Quechen mercilessly punctured his fantasy: "It has been reported to the higher-ups, awaiting approval. You are not included."

"Heh." Lian Qingyang's expression froze, then instantly fell. He stood up, holding the documents, and said calmly, "I'm going to work first."

Gu Quechen stared at Lian Qingyang's pretending to be indifferent back which was completely blocked by the closed door. He suddenly lowered his head and smiled helplessly. After he finished laughing, he came to his senses and realized that something was wrong with his condition. Lian Qingyang always made him want to tease him and make him angry.

I had this impulse before towards the puppy raised by Gu Yiya. It seems that I haven’t seen the puppy for too long, and I actually transferred this impulse to people. I should wait until I have time to go home and play with the dog.

Lian Qingyang, who was being teased like a puppy, had no idea of ​​Gu Quechen's bizarre train of thought. He put the documents on his work desk, perked up, and began to open his computer to integrate the documents and information on hand.

He was actually a little annoyed about his actions just now. It was obvious that he and Gu Quechen were only in a superior-subordinate relationship. From a work perspective, even if he had enough ability, he was still an intern. When Gu Quechen went on a business trip, he had no choice but to go on it for both official and personal reasons. His actions were actually not in line with his current position, an intern who had just joined the company for a week.

Since Gu Quechen was going on a business trip for a while, he had to find something to do. He was so busy running to the office recently that he didn't pay attention to the underground affair between Ba Pi and Xiao Zhang last week.

When Xia Xunyang arrived, Lian Qingyang had already finished organizing a document of moderate thickness. He rubbed his sore neck, said hello to Xia Xunyang, and got up to go to the bathroom with his mobile phone.

There were still twenty minutes before work time, so he simply went to the cubicle. After using the toilet, he didn't come out. He put a layer of paper on the toilet lid, sat down and started to daydream.

Many people arrive on time in the morning, and no one goes to the toilet as soon as they arrive at the company. Until ten minutes later, there was a noise from the toilet door and someone came in.

Lian Qingyang quit the game he was playing, held his phone and listened to the noise outside. The footsteps of the two people stopped one after another, and the toilet door was closed. Lian Qingyang held his breath and waited patiently for the two to speak.

But unexpectedly, one of them was very cautious and started to open each cubicle one by one to check. Zhou Paopi's voice sounded impatiently: "What are you looking for? How could anyone come to the toilet at this time? You checked twice the past two days and there was no one there."

Xiao Zhang paused, then gave up checking and whispered flatteringly, "Aren't you afraid someone might hear and damage your reputation, Director Zhou? I don't mind being scolded any more, just don't let you get into trouble."

Zhou Paopi seemed to be coaxed into giving up, and the two of them continued to discuss plans on how to frame other interns. However, they both seemed to be very wary of Lian Qingyang now. After all, he had been noticed by Manager Gu, and it was difficult to take action against him.

Xiao Zhang thought for a moment and said, "I see that Xia Xunyang, who's beside Lian Qingyang, is usually idle. You can start by grabbing his little braid and when the time comes, say that he's just slacking off at the company and not doing any real work. Anyway, you have the final say on what happens to them."

The two of them communicated for a while and then left in a hurry when it was almost time to go to work. Of course, they left one after the other.

Lian Qingyang saved the recording and left after ten minutes, and even got a cup of coffee from the tea room.

It seems that the deterrence during the day was very effective. Gu Quechen saw that there were no new messages popping up in the chat box, and he lay on the bed with satisfaction, ready to go to sleep, but he tossed and turned and could not feel sleepy for a while.

He turned over and sat up, carefully reading the message Lian Qingyang sent yesterday, then fell back down, opened his eyes and began to think.

The Gu family's main branch is not in this city, and the company he works for is just a less famous branch of the family. The decision to come here seemed to be just a sudden idea.

But for Gu Quechen, it's the same wherever he is. His family won't ask him to marry out, and his father can still manage the company for a few more years.

In his first two years here, he went out early and came back late, spending more time in the company than sleeping. He was as monotonous as an NPC in the game, as if his life was only about work.

But now, a beam of colorful light shines into the world that was originally only black and white. He can't bear to reject it and can't help but approach it. His mind, which is always clear, becomes a mess as soon as he meets that person. He can only follow his heart and do things that are not in line with his character. It is really strange.

Isn't Gu Yiya's personality similar? What's the difference between them?

Lian Qingyang is indeed a little scoundrel.
