Boss Mo's Predestined Love Brought by Surrogacy

Chapter 248 Brown sugar water

However, he helplessly found that Gu Yan didn’t see him anymore.

Gu Yan didn’t say anything to him even at the end of the banquet, so Jiang Jingcheng had to go home.

At that weekend, Jiang Jingcheng showed his affection for Gu Yan. But he gradually found that Gu Yan didn’t like him. Their relationship in her mind was as simple as that with her subordinates, and at best he was only one of her ordinary friends.

What worried Jiang Jingcheng more was that he could often see Gu Yan calling. Every time she talked on the phone, she would spend at least half an hour. Besides, she often wore a coy expression when she was calling.

Jiang Jingcheng could guess that Gu Yan was on the phone with Mo Yichen, which made him more anxious. In this way, they would become much closer. Then it was impossible for him to finish his task. Qianqian would certainly blame him.

The more he thought, the more anxious he was. He had no mood to work.

Jiang Jingcheng thought for a while, but still had no idea. He picked up a document and went to Gu Yan’s office. He was going to talk with Gu Yan to see if there was any chance.

“Bang bang bang…”

“Come in!”

“What’s the matter?” Gu Yan asked casually when she saw Jiang Jingcheng come in. In fact, Gu Yan recognized his competence those days. He was really a rare talent, so Gu Yan spoke politely to him.

“President Gu, I am a little confused about this document and would like to discuss it with you.” As Jiang Jingcheng walked into the office, he used the excuse he had just thought of.

Hearing that, Gu Yan released her hands that were covering her stomach. Then she said, “Fine.”

It was then that Jiang Jingcheng noticed Gu Yan’s face was a little pale. He frowned, “President Gu, are you ok?”

Although Gu Yan’s face was unnatural, she soon concealed that. She said, “It’s okay. I would feel better with some water. Let me see your confusion.”

Jiang Jingcheng was no longer curious and he casually pointed to several controversial points in the document.

After Jiang Jingcheng left Gu Yan’s office and went back to his seat, he was thinking about Gu Yan’s expression and what he saw in the office.

“She had a pale face and covered her stomach with her hands…” It seemed that Jiang Jingcheng was absorbed in thought.

Jiang Jingcheng gave himself a pat on his head, “How did I forget this? Women are emotionally vulnerable at this time. This is a good opportunity to take care of her. I’m sure she’ll be interested in me!”

Jiang Jingcheng was more excited. After thinking about it for a while, he left the studio.

Gu Yan was dispirited in the office. A burst of pain from her stomach made her lose the motivation to work.

“Dear me, I suffer from such a few days of pain every month. How uncomfortable!” Gu Yan lay on the table, with her hands covering her stomach.

Suddenly, a glass of water was placed in front of Gu Yan. She sat up at once out of fear. Then she saw it was Jiang Jingcheng who did that.

Gu Yan asked curiously, “Jingcheng, what are you doing here? What’s up?” To be honest, Gu Yan felt a little resentful. Why did he come in without knocking at the door? Gu Yan’s favorable impression on Jiang Jingcheng was suddenly diminished.

Jiang Jingcheng gestured to Gu Yan to look at the water on the table.

Gu Yan frowned and looked it over. She was stunned. It was brown sugar water, and the cup was still steaming.

“Jingcheng, what do you mean?” Gu Yan looked at Jiang Jingcheng questioningly.

“President Gu, I don’t think you’re feeling well, so I made a cup of hot water for you. I thought you were asleep, so I didn’t knock at the door. I hope you don’t get me wrong.”

Gu Yan felt guilty about her misunderstanding of Jiang Jingcheng. She didn’t expect that he actually knew she was in menstrual period. He not only bought brown sugar for her, but also didn’t say it because he knew she would be embarrassed.

Gu Yan looked at Jiang Jingcheng sincerely, “Jingcheng, thank you for your care.”

Jiang Jingcheng waved his hand, “President Gu, you’re welcome. It’s not because you’re my boss. We’re at least friends now.”

“Besides, seeing that such a beautiful lady was so sad, how could I be indifferent, isn’t it?”

Gu Yan smiled, “Jingcheng, of course we are friends. You are so capable and good-looking, so it is my luck to make friends with you.”

Jiang Jingcheng could feel that Gu Yan really regarded him as a friend at that time. He became excited because he hadn’t worked in vain!

Just then, the assistant knocked at the door with a document in her hand, “President Gu, here is a document for you to sign.” As she said, her eyes kept looking at Jiang Jingcheng. She was a little blushed.

Gu Yan said, “All right. Come in!”

Then Jiang Jingcheng said, “President Gu, I’ll go out first. Take good care of yourself.” In fact, Jiang Jingcheng knew the assistant was interested in him. Jiang Jingcheng would book a room with a female at any other time. But now his target was Gu Yan, so he couldn’t mess with the assistant anyhow.

Otherwise, if Gu Yan knew it, there must be a problem. So in order not to expose himself, Jiang Jingcheng tried not to speak to the assistant in front of Gu Yan.

When Jiang Jingcheng went out, the assistant still couldn’t help following him with her eyes.

After signing the document, Gu Yan said to the assistant, “Haven’t you made the first move yet? I’m telling you that Jiang Jingcheng is very popular, so you should confess your love to him early!”

The assistant was shyer. When she saw the brown sugar water on the table, she couldn’t help saying, “President Gu, Mr. Jiang is really nice to you!”

Gu Yan smiled and said unconcernedly, “This is just a concern among co-workers. Don’t talk nonsense.”

The assistant said, “President Gu, I feel you and Mr. Jiang are a perfect match. If he likes someone else, I’m not convinced. But if it were you, I would sincerely bless you!”

“Don’t talk nonsense. You know I have a crush on a man. You’d better mind your own business.” Gu Yan said, pretending to be angry.

“Come on, get out to work!”

The assistant went out immediately. Gu Yan paid no attention to what the assistant said. She had never thought of Jiang Jingcheng in that way. There was only one man in Gu Yan’s heart. That was Mo Yichen. Oh, there was another one, Mo Xiangyan!

Gu Yan just saw Jiang Jingcheng as a good helper.
