CHAPTER 262: CHAPTER 261 I ALREADY HAVE A FIANCÉ (1)

For a woman to be beautiful, two things are indispensable: makeup and clothing.

She’s good with makeup, but when it comes to an evening gown... Although she has a number of beautiful ones, all of them are outdated designs. Everyone attending tonight’s party is either rich or noble, with very discerning eyes. They can easily spot whether a gown is a new design or an old one at a glance.

If she wears an old evening gown, it will definitely be embarrassing.

But just a few days ago, she bought an awfully expensive tie and that couple outfit, so her bank account has dwindled down to practically nothing. There’s absolutely no money for a new evening gown.

What to do?

Dong Xin Yan furrowed her elegant brows, unconsciously biting her nails, utterly at a loss.

-

The General Manager’s Office of the Gu Group.

Secretary Lin’s internal line rang, and she hurriedly answered, speaking respectfully, "Mr. Gu."

Gu Ningyi’s cool, low voice came through, "Come in for a moment."

"Yes, Mr. Gu."

Secretary Lin stood up, walked toward the office, adjusted her outfit subconsciously at the door, then reached out and knocked.

"Come in."

Secretary Lin pushed the door open, stood in front of the desk, and asked, "Mr. Gu, is there anything you need?"

Gu Ningyi, unhurried, signed his name on a document before looking up, his dark eyes meeting Secretary Lin’s. His thin lips parted slightly, "Secretary Lin, there’s something I need you to run an errand for."

He asked for a favor.

The always aloof big Boss, Mr. Gu, had never used such words.

Hearing these words made Secretary Lin’s little heart skip a beat, opening her mouth with overwhelming surprise, "Mr. Gu, whatever you need, just tell me. I’m totally fine with it, it’s no trouble at all."

Gu Ningyi’s lips curled into a smile, and he slightly turned to the side, picking up a beautiful large gift box from beside him and placing it on the desk, pushing it toward Secretary Lin.

His voice remained mildly indifferent, but his eyes were as gentle as water, "Take this to Nahai Blue Bay for Xinyan."

Xinyan.

As a professional chief secretary, Secretary Lin not only reads people’s expressions well but also has keen insight, easily noticing the change in the Boss’s way of addressing Dong Xin Yan.

Always before, the Boss would call Dong Xin Yan by her full name, but now it was so intimate, calling her Xinyan. Moreover... the gentleness in his eyes seemed almost overwhelming, completely sweeping away the previous period’s gloom and agitation.

Secretary Lin couldn’t help but steal glances at Gu Ningyi. His eyes were gentle, the corners of his lips held a smile, the contours of his handsome face appearing soft and relaxed, with a faint glimmer flowing within his dark eyes.

This was clearly the demeanor of a man in love!

Tsk tsk tsk.

Previously, she had said Dong Xin Yan was a master at flirting, capturing the Boss’s heart so quickly. Now it seems the Boss’s combat power is quite strong too, having swiftly won her over.

Originally, she received news a few days ago that Zhou Yalin had returned to the country, thinking that tonight’s banquet would still see Zhou Yalin, the legitimate fiancée, accompanying the Boss. Unexpectedly, Dong Xin Yan stood firm.

Not bad at all; she had indeed judged her correctly. After tonight, Dong Xin Yan might really become her future boss lady, right?

Feeling delighted, Secretary Lin thought as she held up the large gift box, nodding vigorously at Gu Ningyi, "Mr. Gu, don’t worry, I’ll personally deliver this to Miss Dong."

After a pause, she added, "So she knows your intentions~"
