Gu Ningyi murmured a faint acknowledgment, picked up the fountain pen, twisted off the cap, and was about to sign the document when his hand suddenly paused. Then, without any preamble, he asked, "How has she been these past few days?"
Secretary Lin didn’t immediately grasp the meaning behind Gu Ningyi’s words and responded with a puzzled "Hmm?" Then, a flash of understanding crossed her mind, and she instantly realized what the Boss was asking about.
She composed herself, mentally reviewing the daily reports from the doctor over the past few days, and then spoke, "Miss Dong’s high fever has completely subsided, but her body is still a bit weak, and she is still coughing."
Gu Ningyi’s brow furrowed slightly, and his voice turned somewhat grave, "Still not better?"
It had already been several days.
Secretary Lin observed Gu Ningyi’s expression, astonished at heart. To be honest, she’d been by Gu Ningyi’s side for so long, yet she had never seen him show such an expression.
He seemed somewhat impatient, but hidden in his eyes was an imperceptible trace of worry.
In all these years, she had never seen the Boss looking worried. Even towards his fiancée, Miss Zhou, he seemed always indifferent, with hardly any visible emotional fluctuations.
Unlike Miss Dong, whenever something involved her, she could always discern some emotions on the Boss’s face, whether it was anger, frustration, worry...
Someone who didn’t know might actually believe that Miss Dong was the Boss’s fiancée.
But Miss Dong already had a fiancé, and the Boss also had a fiancée...
However, now Miss Dong was... living in the Boss’s villa, and the Boss clearly regarded Miss Dong differently...
How chaotic this relationship truly is. For original chapters go to novｅlfire.net
Anyway, they are both unmarried, so everything is possible.
If the Boss could end up with Miss Dong, she would absolutely support it with both hands and feet. Miss Dong is agreeable and has a good temper, unlike Miss Zhou, who outwardly appears polite but is actually quite difficult to get along with.
The main point is, since she is a female secretary, Miss Zhou was always worried she would use work as an excuse to seduce the Boss, so she often caused trouble for her, absolutely relentless.
So, should she perhaps give a little push to get the Boss and Miss Dong together?
These past few days, Miss Dong has been ill. Although the Boss sent doctors and nurses to check on her every day and had people report back on her condition, he hasn’t returned to the Nahai Blue Bay villa even once. No one knows what he’s thinking.
Secretary Lin’s dark eyes shifted, she carefully chose her words, and then replied, "Yes, she’s still not recovered. The doctor said it might be because she hasn’t been sick for a long time, so this time she isn’t recovering quickly."
After a slight pause, she spoke lightly, with a hint of suggestion, "The doctor said the most important thing now is proper rest and to keep a cheerful mood, but he also mentioned Miss Dong seems a bit anxious these days, which is not good for her recovery."
Secretary Lin nodded, "According to the doctor, Miss Dong has been persistently asking him when she might fully recover."
Gu Ningyi’s brow furrowed deeply, yet the light in his dark eyes remained inscrutable, revealing no emotion.
Secretary Lin subtly clenched her hand, eager to continue, "I think Miss Dong might be in a hurry because she has something important."
