Secretly Married to the Ice-Cold CEO

Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Everything is Negotiable

An Junxi said to Gu Yikun: "I waited for you in the parking lot for several days. Because I broke into the parking lot, I was put on the blacklist by security, so today..."

Gu Yikun understood.

He involuntarily thought of An Junxi squatting in the parking lot, looking disheveled. His thin lips curved up slightly, and he asked, "You want to see me because of the lawsuit?"

An Junxi nodded, "President Gu, I’m really sorry for being late this morning. It won’t happen again in the future!"

Gu Yikun didn’t mention it again. He gestured for An Junxi to look at the documents on the table, "This is the employment contract. Sign it if there’s no problem after you read it."

An Junxi picked up the contract. Her eyes immediately caught the salary, and she couldn’t help but open her mouth wide.

She started calculating in her mind. Spending four hours every night either tutoring Gu Jinxiu or participating in ability development programs, she would earn sixteen thousand yuan a month. Isn’t this too high?

It was much higher than her main job!

With this, she could save enough for a down payment in two years and choose a property in a good location. She was practically stepping towards the peak of her life!

An Junxi got a bit excited and hurriedly started flipping through the contract to read the notes.

Hmm, there’s a car service, work meals, everything seems very good. The confidentiality agreement requirements are also normal. Who would have thought Gu Yikun was such a good person and boss.

An Junxi signed her name without much hesitation and immediately asked, "Boss, when do I start?"

"Call me Mr. Gu."

"Oh, Mr. Gu."

"Tomorrow evening. My assistant will contact you."

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

After signing the contract, An Junxi took her copy, and Gu Yikun started reviewing documents.

An Junxi noticed the Gu Family’s logo on the documents. She sensibly left the office, and just as the elevator doors were closing, she heard Gu Yikun say on the phone: "Bring the head of HR up to see me."

An Junxi couldn’t help but feel a moment of pity for Li Hui. She didn’t know how Gu Yikun would deal with Li Hui, but it was enough for her to have a sense of justice.

An Junxi was in a great mood. Not only did she resolve a company crisis today, but she also found a high-paying part-time job for herself. Life couldn’t get any better!

As soon as she got out of the elevator on the ground floor, Yue Xiaoyang called her and asked, "Jun Xi, how did it go?"

An Junxi briefly explained, and Yue Xiaoyang said, "Feeling hungry? Come up to the seventeenth floor, I’ve ordered some dishes for you."

Just as An Junxi was about to refuse, she thought, why not enjoy a meal with him? Yue Xiaoyang continued, "You just found a high-paying part-time job, you should at least come up and have a drink with me, right?"

An Junxi had no choice but to press the elevator button again, "Alright, Young Master Yue!"

Unexpectedly, Li Hui was waiting at the seventeenth floor elevator entrance.

As soon as Li Hui saw An Junxi, she smiled ingratiatingly. Compared to her previous overbearing attitude, it was like she was a different person, "Miss An, the compensation I mentioned before was just a joke. I never meant to involve the media. Please don’t misunderstand. Later on, my family will still need your company’s teachers to guide Liu Zejia."

An Junxi raised her hand to interrupt her, "Manager Li, have you forgotten? Our company already processed the refund the day you asked for compensation, so Liu Zejia is not our student anymore. Besides, our company’s teachers are not up to your standards and are not qualified to teach your child."

Li Hui was almost in tears. She grabbed An Junxi’s arm and pleaded, "Miss An, let’s not argue anymore. I can apologize publicly and clear this up, ensuring that Si Yuan Education doesn’t suffer any reputational loss. Please, just have a word with the president..."

An Junxi said, "You’ve already damaged our institution’s reputation. First, go home and talk to your child about why he said the teacher hit him. Let’s solve the fundamental issue first, then we’ll address the rest. After all, our company’s reputation is also very important. We can’t bear the label of a student-beater."

Finishing her statement, she ignored Li Hui and went into the private room.

Yue Xiaoyang was waiting inside. Two chefs stood by the cooking table. As soon as they saw An Junxi, they started preparing the food.

An Junxi sincerely proposed a toast to Yue Xiaoyang, "Thank you so much, Young Master Yue!" She downed her glass in one gulp.

Yue Xiaoyang quickly said, "Can you handle drinking? Don’t force it. I’m not someone who cares about appearances."

An Junxi smiled, "A few drinks are fine."

Only then did Yue Xiaoyang relax and have a drink himself.

An Junxi looked at him, "I’ve discovered another of your good qualities."

Yue Xiaoyang shamelessly asked, "I have too many good qualities. Which one are you referring to?"

An Junxi laughed, "Another one, you’re very humorous."

Yue Xiaoyang said, "It’s unavoidable; Gu Yikun is as cold as ice. If I weren’t more lively, I’d freeze to death around him sooner or later."

An Junxi asked curiously, "You two have known each other for a long time, right?"

"We grew up together, what do you think?"

They must understand each other very well.

The gossip in An Junxi’s heart started to bubble up. She was very curious about Jin Xiu’s mother, but she didn’t ask Yue Xiaoyang, as it was someone else’s private matter and would be crossing a line.

After eating, An Junxi declined Yue Xiaoyang’s offer to take her back to the company and took a cab back to Si Yuan herself.

When the team heard her good news, Si Yuan erupted in cheers. Gong Xiaoyu gave her a big hug, "I knew you could do it!"

Some colleagues, eyes shining, asked, "Jun Xi, you can talk directly with President Gu? That’s amazing! There must be a story!"

Others chimed in, "Tell us!"

An Junxi said, "There’s no story, just thick skin on my part!"

They looked disappointed.

Gong Xiaoyu said, "Come on, cheer up! Tonight, a luxurious buffet at Huadun Hotel is on me! President Gu helped us a lot, so let’s celebrate!"

Everyone cheered, "Long live the boss!"

After their excitement died down, everyone got back to work. An Junxi walked into the office and told Gong Xiaoyu about her part-time job, "Senior, company policy forbids moonlighting, so..."

Gong Xiaoyu said, "Got it, it’s a secret. No one else will know. You just need to handle it well."

An Junxi was moved to tears, "Senior, you’re the best!"

Gong Xiaoyu waved her hand, "You did a great job today. Consider it my thanks. I know you’re working hard to get your own place. I did offer to lend you money for the down payment before, but you refused."

Gong Xiaoyu didn’t force her. She understood An Junxi’s determination on this matter. Frankly, this was why she admired her junior so much.
