Xiao Anjing believed she had great trust in Yang Sijie, that they had known each other for a long time, and the possibility of her being used was slim.
The thought of Gu Susu and Yang Sijie knowing each other long ago made Qin Tianyi feel something was off. Now, he suddenly recalled a photo Gu Susu cherished.
The boy in that photo was Yang Sijie. No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity when he first saw Yang Sijie's photo online.
To confirm his suspicion, he searched everywhere online for childhood photos of Yang Sijie, but he couldn't find any.
After a long search, he finally found a graduation photo of Yang Sijie from high school. Staring at this photo of Yang Sijie in his younger years, he was completely certain it was the same person in Gu Susu's photo.
They not only knew each other long ago but had also been in contact for a long time. Otherwise, how could Gu Susu have gotten together with Yang Sijie immediately after his complete breakup with her?
The more Qin Tianyi thought about it, the angrier he became. Gu Susu had even gone to the hospital insisting on taking care of him, feigning a reluctance to leave him. In reality, another man was already waiting for her.
Was she deliberately trying to appear pitiful in front of him because she was afraid he would go back on his word and not let her go?
What else had this detestable woman Gu Susu done behind his back that he didn't know about? And how many men did she have?
Qin Tianyi was enraged by her again, feeling he shouldn't have let her go so easily!
How foolish, the truly foolish one was himself!
Just because he found out the woman who inexplicably got together with him six years ago was her, and because he wanted to protect their child, he had completely believed this woman!
Did she need his protection? She had someone stronger protecting her, and might even want to collude with that man to destroy everything he had.
She cherished a mere childhood photo so much; it was clear that the man she cared for and loved was that man all along!
Who was playing whom in the palm of their hands? No wonder she kept blessing him when she heard about his marriage to Shu Yan. She was overjoyed when she knew he was marrying someone else. He was a damn fool, a complete and utter fool!
...
Three days after Gu Susu's successful interview, she was notified that she could officially start working at Saiou Company.
On her first day, she arrived at the company on time and was surprised to be personally welcomed by the boss with a grand welcoming ceremony.
The lobby where the company held the ceremony was adorned with colorful balloons, and a prepared buffet, cakes, pastries, drinks, and beverages were available, making it feel like a festival. Gu Susu was truly overwhelmed.
This was the first time she had encountered a company with such profound corporate culture. After mingling with everyone and getting acquainted, she learned that the company's female boss's surname was Huang, with the given name Ning, and everyone in the company called her by her English name, Wendy.
Wendy had studied fashion design abroad in her early years and returned to China a few years ago to establish this fashion company. Although not large in scale, it had carved out a niche in the market for niche brands with its unique design style.
After the welcome reception, Wendy led her to an office door, extended her hand for a handshake, and said, "Welcome to the team."
"You are too kind," Gu Susu didn't know what else to say.
Wendy smiled and said, "From now on, call me Wendy like everyone else. This office is yours." As she spoke, she pushed open the office door.
Gu Susu had already seen the nameplate hanging on the office door: Chief Designer - Gu Susu. When she saw the interior of the office, she was stunned.
It was even better than she had imagined, far surpassing Chang Qingchuan's office at Mishang. The desk, chairs, and other necessary office furniture were exceptionally luxurious, and there was a dedicated design table, drawing tools, a wall-mounted LCD TV, and a tea break area. Everything was complete...
Everything she had thought of and hadn't thought of was prepared in the office. She didn't dare to step inside and asked, "Are you sure this is my office, not yours?"
Wendy laughed, "I didn't expect Miss Gu to be so humorous. Do you think there's anything wrong with this office, or do you need anything else, or want to make any changes? You can tell me directly."
"No problem, it's great. It's beyond my imagination," Gu Susu said with a smile.
"As long as Miss Gu is satisfied, keep up the good work," Wendy patted her shoulder as encouragement and then turned to leave.
Gu Susu walked into her office, gently closing the door. She tried sitting in the office chair and felt a sense of floating. She was glad she had chosen this company.
She then looked around the office again and found that everything was brand new. Was this not the office of the previous chief designer?
Instead, it was a brand new office specially prepared for her. This company truly valued talent.
She sat back down in her chair, looking at the empty desk, and suddenly realized she had no idea what she was supposed to do on her first day.
Wendy hadn't mentioned any specific tasks or designs she needed to work on.
She saw an internal directory on the desk and found Wendy's extension number, then dialed it from the desk phone.
"Miss Gu, is there something you need?" the person on the other end asked politely after picking up the phone.
"Wendy, do you have any design proposals for me to work on? What are the specific job responsibilities?"
Wendy replied politely, "There's no rush. For your first day, just get familiar with the company environment. Tomorrow, I'll assign an assistant to help you, and we'll arrange the specific tasks then."
"But I've already gotten acquainted with my colleagues. There's still half a day left, and I can't just do nothing."
Wendy said in a gentle tone, "Then you can arrange your time freely. At your level in our company, there are no restrictions on working hours or company regulations. You can do whatever you wish."
Gu Susu was a bit taken aback. Didn't all bosses try to maximize the value of their employees?
Even Qin Tianyi at Mishang previously wanted her to utilize her abilities, not just be a decorative piece.
Wendy, this female boss, had a unique way of doing things that made it difficult for her to adapt.
"But..."
Wendy interrupted her, "Don't rush into work. I have something to attend to, so I won't chat with you any longer."
After saying that, Wendy hung up.
Gu Susu held the receiver, looking bewildered. It seemed she had to find something to do herself.
Didn't Wendy say she should get familiar with the company and colleagues? Perhaps she should visit the design department. But then she thought, it was her first day, and she hadn't brought any gifts. Going to visit empty-handed would seem like an inspection, which wasn't ideal, so she gave up the idea.
Gu Susu had no choice but to turn on her computer and design the fashion she wanted to in an online boutique to pass the time.
She also remembered that she needed to call Chang Qingchuan.
As soon as the call connected, she told Chang Qingchuan that she had found a job.
Chang Qingchuan immediately congratulated her and asked which company she had joined.
