Chapter 1508: The Boss Is Too Lonely and Needs Company
"You’d better not make friends with that kind of person; very clever methods."
The receptionist shook her head, "No, she’s not like that... Also, our President Shen isn’t that kind of person. Maybe I just got it wrong; she took a sick leave today, so it probably wasn’t her."
President Shen and Gu Ziyou watching a movie together?
She thought it was like a fairytale; there’s usually quite a bit of tension between them.
Besides, how could President Shen be someone who watches movies with a girl? President Shen is practically like a deity in their company.

It was already quite late, and Gu Ziyou, sitting in the passenger seat, gradually fell asleep.
The car drove into the community parking lot and stopped, Shen Lingfeng didn’t get out immediately, nor did he wake her.
Quietly watching the sleeping girl beside him, the dim lighting softly shone on her glowing and smooth skin.
Her pretty little face was so delicate it resembled a doll, but her eyes were a bit swollen, with traces of tears from earlier.
Since she was young, she loved watching romance dramas, and even now she was so easily moved to tears by a movie.
Shen Lingfeng leaned back in his seat, watching her for who knows how long until she stirred.
"Hmm, are we there?" Gu Ziyou rubbed her eyes in a daze, "How long did I sleep?"
He removed the car keys and prepared to get out, "Not long, we just arrived. Let’s get out."
Getting out, he went to the trunk to grab the stuff they bought earlier and headed upstairs with her.
The security guard smiled and greeted them, thinking it was fortunate he didn’t insist on tying up Miss Gu to call the police last time.
That day they must have been joking around, this totally looked like a couple.
"Here we are, aren’t you getting out?" The elevator stopped at Gu Ziyou’s floor.
"President Shen, am I not going to your place? Wasn’t there something else?"
"Go rest, we’ll discuss other things tomorrow," Shen Lingfeng looked at her exhausted face, clearly ready to fall asleep as soon as she hit the bed.
She didn’t refuse, instead giving a grateful smile, "I’ll head to bed right away, won’t be late tomorrow!"
Exiting the elevator, Gu Ziyou thought back on the evening.
Seems like her job as an assistant wasn’t anything particularly demanding.
What was her job today?
Accompanying President Shen to the supermarket, having dinner, watching a movie...
"Mengmeng, I think my BOSS hired a personal assistant not because he’s short-staffed, but because he’s too lonely and needs company."
"Are you going to sleep with him? Think carefully!"
"...That’s not it, just keeping him company for meals, shopping, movies, etc. He’s pitiful; he doesn’t seem to have any friends."
"Oh my god, the guy wants to pursue you, and you find him pitiful. Can someone of his status really have no one to accompany him? You know better than anyone else."
Gu Ziyou still didn’t think the BOSS wanted to pursue her, otherwise he wouldn’t be so stingy with his smiles, always pulling a long face, and rarely talking to her.
It’s because she knew many similar people, realizing that while they might not lack companions that appear to be friends, they actually lack true friends.

Originally, Gu Ziyou was very sleepy, but couldn’t fall asleep after getting into bed.
She tossed and turned, occasionally sending messages to Mengmeng.
She opened one of Mengmeng’s voice messages, a yawning voice said, "For you to rate his looks so highly, he’s not easy to impress. Send me a photo next time for a look."
Gu Ziyou dared not secretly take his picture, and Mengmeng was clearly just saying it casually, clearly indifferent.
The next day, Gu Ziyou paid the price for her insomnia: she was almost late.
Exiting the apartment elevator, she rushed out briskly.
