Chapter 31: Chapter 31 The First Woman to Be His Co-pilot
Gu Annan heard that voice and stopped the foot that was about to press the gas pedal.
“It’s you.” His voice was still very faint, making it hard to discern any emotion.
Ji Jiayi’s smile froze on her face when she saw Lu Wanwan, her eyes complex, “Brother Annan, who is she?”
She had never seen a woman on Gu Annan’s passenger seat, not even herself being allowed.
“Assistant.” Lu Wanwan stepped forward, answering in a low voice with a forced smile on her face, “Hello, I am the new assistant of President Gu.”
Gu Annan’s face instantly darkened, and even the air conditioning inside the car seemed suppressed by him.
Because Brother Annan and Gu Annan were childhood friends, Ji Jiayi always considered herself on the same level as them.
Therefore, their subordinates, in her view, naturally were subordinates as well.
Disdain naturally showed on her face, her tone still slightly doubtful, “A new assistant should still know the rules, right? Can you sit in Brother Annan’s passenger seat?”
“I’m sorry, I needed to report work to President Gu, so…”
Ji Jiayi knew what Gu Annan was like when he was serious about work and thus didn’t bother to argue minutely with an assistant.
She turned to Gu Annan and put on a bright smile again, “Brother Annan, I didn’t drive out today, could you give me a ride?”
Gu Annan coldly glanced at Lu Wanwan, whose entire face was hoping he would not agree.
Ji Jiayi was delighted; she had only been testing the water with her question, knowing his temperament he probably wouldn’t agree, but today was an unexpected surprise.
“Thank you, Brother Annan.” She immediately went to the passenger door, pulled it open, looked down at Lu Wanwan, and commanded, “You, get out and sit in the back.”
Though her looks had some merit, her clothing was so plain.
This new assistant must be so new she hasn’t even received her first month’s salary, a poor student just graduated, shabbily dressed from head to toe, nothing she wore was of any value.
In fact, Lu Wanwan couldn’t have been happier.
Although she didn’t take the photos herself, they were leaked by her, and encountering the subject made her feel somewhat guilty.
“Alright, I will get down right away…” She took her bag and started to get out of the car.
Ji Jiayi was pleased with her submissive attitude, but the next second, she heard Gu Annan’s cold, deep voice, “Jiayi, you take the back seat.”
Lu Wanwan’s right leg had just stepped out, she stopped in surprise, turning her head to look at him with a pleading gaze.
Gu Annan’s eyes were deep and cold without a ripple, “Did I ask you to get up?”
Lu Wanwan gently bit her lip and drew her foot back in unknowingly.
“If you’re not sitting, take a cab yourself.”
With no other option, Ji Jiayi reluctantly took the back seat.
Fortunately, Gu Annan didn’t show any kindness to the new assistant either, confirming the rumors that he was abnormally strict at work were not unfounded.
Once Ji Jiayi got into the car, it started moving.
“I’m going to find my big brother, Brother Annan, please take me there.”
Ji Jiayi knew that her big brother had a golf appointment with Gu Annan today, but he just refused to take her along.
It didn’t matter, she was going to find her brother now, and surely Gu Annan wouldn’t leave immediately.
“By the way, Brother Annan, something terrible has happened. That notorious Zui Entertainment somehow got a photo of me and Bai Lingyun, and they completely fabricated the story. It’s infuriating, not a single word is true!”
The two people in the front were both silent, giving Ji Jiayi the strange impression that she was the extra person.
