Quick Transmigration: Don't Let That Cannon Fodder Go

Chapter 7 That CEO Novel Cannon Fodder 7

Song Xianyin has been very unhappy lately. She recently went to have afternoon tea with those people, and they all openly or subtly belittled her.

The news that Song Xianyin pursued Gu Peisi and ended up with the Gu family has already spread like wildfire in the industry.

Although she always snapped back, the thought of Gu Peisi's cold face made her feel bad again.

How can someone be so difficult to win over?

As soon as I got home, I saw a serious-looking man sitting on the sofa. He was still wearing his suit, and the servants next to him had their heads down and dared not make a sound.

"Why are you home so late?" the man asked sternly, his voice low.

None of Song's recent projects have been successful, and he urgently needs money.

She thought she could win over Gu Peisi quickly, but so much time has passed and there has been no progress.

Song Xianyin sat in the living room being lectured by her father for almost an hour, the gist of which was that she should work harder and marry Gu Peisi as soon as possible.

Song Xianyin accepted the money without hesitation, but didn't listen to a word she was told.

"If you dress yourself up in a gentler way, he will think you can be the lady of the house," Mr. Song earnestly advised.

He has lost far too much money, and Gu Peisi is now his only lifeline.

Just as Song Xianyin was about to ask for more money, a voice rang out on the stairs.

"Dad, did you give her money again?" The man's face looked rather grim.

He wanted to buy a sports car yesterday, but he wouldn't let him, saying he didn't have much money on hand. But today he gave Song Xianyin the money.

Mr. Song frowned: "If you want to gain something, you have to give something in return. How can she attract Gu Peisi if she doesn't dress up nicely?"

Song Zhikang gritted his teeth. Is that really the case?

Money is where love is. Ever since Song Xianyin returned to the Song family, he has given her less than half of the money he had given her, and it is clear who has the other half.

Song Zhikang sneered: "I'm afraid your money is going to go down the drain again. She's been at Gu's for so long, and Gu Peisi hasn't even given her a second glance."

Mr. Song looked steadily at Song Xianyin: "Dad believes your sister can definitely do it this time."

The Song family's money wasn't spent for nothing. If she still can't handle Gu Peisi, he'll definitely take back double the amount of money from her.

Song Xianyin didn't say a word the whole time, and the father and son had already finished their act.

She wasn't a person with a good mindset; when she did quests, she was often affected by the emotions of the people in the quest world, even though they were just NPCs.

The mockery of those people, the subtle warnings from Song's father, and most importantly, Gu Peisi's attitude all made Song Xianyin feel irritated.

The next day, as soon as Song Xianyin arrived at the company, she went straight to the top floor.

The office door was open, and Wen Ruchu was reporting on the project. Gu Peisi's expression was gentler than she had ever seen before, and even Secretary Lin was looking at them with a maternal smile.

Song Xianyin admitted that she had lost her guard. Gu Peisi had never shown her such an expression before, and Secretary Lin was always wary of her.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that the bodyguards nearby were much friendlier than usual.

Song Xianyin's eyes immediately reddened, and she walked into the elevator dejectedly.

The bodyguards nearby were somewhat puzzled as they watched her retreating figure.

Why did Miss Song leave?

"She looked at us just now."

One of the bodyguards looked terrified: "Did you scare them away? You all have such long faces."

The bodyguard next to him immediately retorted, "No, we've always had this expression on our faces."

They're all wearing sunglasses, how can you tell what expressions they have?

Secretary Lin gently closed his eyes, hoping that Ru Chu would report a little slower so he could doze off for a few more minutes.

"Snapped--"

Secretary Lin shuddered in fright and immediately widened her eyes.

After getting off the elevator, Song Xianyin was completely dejected, and she slumped onto her desk.

The office fell silent. Everyone looked at each other, wondering if today's mood was melancholic.

Wen Ruchu returned shortly afterward.

Sister Li quickly went to greet him: "Ru Chu, what did the president say?"

Wen Ruchu's eyes were a little red, and she shook her head: "Sister Li, let me revise it again."

Sister Li sighed as she looked at her. She had already told her that she could take a look first, but she went directly to the president. Wouldn't that just get her scolded?

She was a newcomer; although she had several internships, she hadn't participated in many large projects.

In the office, Gu Peisi leaned back in his chair, the coffee on the table having been refilled countless times. He closed his eyes and looked extremely tired.

Secretary Lin said cautiously, "President, why don't you go and rest for a while?"

The president has put a lot of effort into that piece of land in City A these past few days.

"She's not coming to work anymore?"

Secretary Lin paused for a moment, then said, "I think I just saw Miss Song. She came down a little while later."

Gu Peisi responded softly, "Make the arrangements for tonight's banquet."

Secretary Lin really wanted to ask his female companion who she wanted to send, because if Miss Song wasn't allowed to go, she would probably get angry again.

Seeing Gu Peisi's tired face, Secretary Lin thought for a moment but decided not to ask.

Last time she went as usual, and if the president hasn't said anything this time, let her go again.

Song Xianyin didn't do any work all day; she had absolutely no motivation to work anymore.

She watched Wen Ruchu wherever she went; she would monitor Wen Ruchu forever!

Wen Ruchu was already used to Song Xianyin's gaze. She knew that Song Xianyin cared about her a lot, which also showed that she wasn't actually that confident.

"Ruchu, you don't need to be in such a hurry. The president won't rush you." Her colleague looked at her curiously.

Wen Ruchu smiled and said, "I'm afraid something might happen this afternoon."

My colleagues started teasing me: "Are you going to another banquet tonight?"

Wen Ruchu's face turned slightly red: "No, no, I'm just afraid I'll suddenly be given a task this afternoon."

This dinner was about a piece of land in City A. Originally, the matter was very simple, but for some reason, the government suddenly intervened, and things started to get complicated.

She had attended several banquets with him, and this one was so important that even though Secretary Lin hadn't told her, it was perfectly reasonable for her to be chosen.

"Who are you going to the dinner party with?" an incredulous voice suddenly interrupted.

The surrounding colleagues began to look awkward, and Sister Li stepped in to smooth things over: "Ms. Song, no, no, we haven't decided yet."

I almost forgot there was a time bomb in the office; she must have heard what I just said.

Seeing Song Xianyin's angry face, Wen Ruchu smiled. With Song Xianyin's behavior, there was even less chance that she would go tonight.

Wen Ruchu suddenly felt extremely sorry for Song Xianyin. A girl had gone to such lengths to pursue him, but he still didn't take her seriously.

If she had any sense of shame, she would know how humiliating her behavior is.
