Xu Jie stared at Chu Che diagonally behind him with his peripheral vision, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Why could such a perfect and outstanding man only see Zhao Donghan and refuse to cast his gaze on her? Even if it’s only for a second!
The fate between them was too short, so short that only one kiss remained.
Opportunity between people is a very mysterious thing. Before, she and Chu Che were just ordinary colleagues.
Once, Xu Jie worked overtime late, his steps were sloppy, and he accidentally rolled down the stairs. Chu Che happened to meet her and kindly carried her downstairs and drove her to the hospital.
Lying on his broad and strong back, a warmth rose in her heart.
At first, she was only grateful to Chu Che. Gradually, this gratitude turned into a kind of care and attention. In the few contacts she had, her eyes always followed him unconsciously.
His casual smile would make Xu Jie's heart beat faster.
Unknowingly, my frozen heart began to melt. The door that had been closed to all men for so long opened a crack.
Xu Jie could see clearly that many girls in the company were secretly in love with this handsome and enthusiastic HR manager. He was an outstanding man, not a man she could imagine. At this point, she is self-aware.
She didn't dare to expect to be able to stand beside him, she only hoped to be a friend who was higher than a colleague, and silently guard him not far away. As long as she could see Chu Che often, she would be satisfied.
No one expected that an unexpected event would break this balance.
That day was Xu Jie's birthday, and she and a few friends were drinking in a bar to celebrate. Near the end of the party, I met Chu Che who was drinking alone.
Chu Che only focused on drinking and didn't notice her. The sad look in his eyes made her heart tremble.
After she sent all her friends away, she turned around and returned to the bar. Pretending to have just seen each other, he started chatting with Chu Che.
Chu Che was too depressed during that time. So, under the anesthesia of alcohol, he told Xu Jie the troubles he had never mentioned to anyone else. The pain of unrequited love, the unspeakable affection, and the conflict of fear of rejection were all poured out to her as a colleague.
He didn't say the girl's name, but he said his attachment to that person.
After two glasses of wine, Xu Jie's eyes became blurred. After hearing Chu Che's troubles, it also brought back a sad memory for her.
Five years ago, she prepared to marry her first love of four years. On their way to take wedding photos, an accident happened. The two cars collided and the scene was very tragic.
Xu Jie's fiancé died on the spot and she was also seriously injured. This incident shocked her to the core, as if she had fallen into hell. During that time, her mental breakdown reached its peak.
From then on, her character began to become depressed and gloomy, locking herself in her room all day long. She locked her heart and refused to accept any more advances from men.
Xu Jie and Chu Che, both fallen from the sky, exchanged secrets with each other and expressed their concerns for their sweethearts. There was a faint feeling of sympathy in Xu Jie's chest.
She knew how he was feeling.
In the end, Chu Che was so drunk that he couldn't even tell the difference between east, west and north. After all, Xu Jie is a woman and has some restraint in drinking, so she is still sober.
She helped Chu Che out of the bar, but Chu Che's feet slipped and he staggered. Xu Jie subconsciously stretched out his hands and hugged his strong waist to prevent him from falling. Not wanting to, Chu Che hugged her back forcefully, and kissed her lips in confusion and infatuation.
Xu Jie was very shocked at the time, but for some reason he forgot to refuse. After the kiss, she blushed and her heart beat fast, the long-lost heartbeat feeling came back.
She didn't expect that she would develop feelings for a colleague. Moreover, this colleague is younger than her. She doesn't want to be called "an old cow eating young grass", but emotional matters are beyond her control.
Why did Chu Che kiss her suddenly? Does he like her a little bit
Just when she was struggling, she heard Chu Che murmuring in a helpless manner:
"Sorry, I didn't mean it, Assistant Zhao..."
Assistant Zhao.
These last three words completely shattered Xu Jie's self-esteem. It turned out that she was being used as a substitute.
In the company, it is not difficult to guess the person who is called an assistant and also has the surname Zhao.
Xu Jie was unconvinced and thought through gritted teeth that character is the most important thing for a man to find his partner.
What does Zhao Donghan have? Apart from being a few years younger than her and a bit more charming, what else is better than her? With her gentle and honest personality, she can completely overpower Zhao Donghan, who always looks aloof.
If it hadn't been for this unexpected and brief intimate contact, she wouldn't have had such undesirable thoughts. But since he provoked her first, he can't blame her for overestimating her abilities. She won't just give up, she will try her best.
How could that yellow-haired girl who had no qualifications become the assistant to the president as soon as she entered the company, be able to win the favor of such a beautiful man
From the moment Chu Che called out "Assistant Zhao", all the unwillingness and humiliation turned into resentment, whizzing through Xu Jie's heart.
Xu Jie is a sinister person, and there is an almost perverted obsession in her bones. If she doesn't like something, forget it; once she is tempted, she will do whatever it takes to get it. Even if she doesn't have the chance, she won't just watch others get it.
When they met at the company the next day, he greeted her casually and still called her "Sister Xu" affectionately. She smiled bitterly, wondering whether he had forgotten yesterday's kiss, or whether he clearly remembered it but pretended to forget it.
No matter which way it is, it shows that he doesn't want to get closer to her. It seemed like everything the night before was just her own passionate fantasy.
Since he didn't mention it, she cooperated with him and pretended that nothing had happened. There was absolutely no flaw.
However, she began to secretly plan to discredit Zhao Donghan.
At that time, Zhao Donghan was in management, and Xu Jie, as a department manager, found it difficult to deal with her. Therefore, Xu Jie decided to suppress her through public opinion first.
Many people have seen Zhao Donghan driving a luxury car to and from get off work, and there have been some rumors about it for a long time. Xu Jie took this opportunity to confirm these speculations. They gossiped about her behind her back, saying that she was being kept by someone. He also said that he was imagining that the other party was a bald and obese middle-aged man, and that Zhao Donghan had been kept for three years, etc. He said that he had a nose and eyes.
Originally, Zhao Donghan's position came out of nowhere, and he was criticized and jealous by many people. If Xu Jie continued to spread rumors like this, some people would immediately believe him. Rumors spread more and more, and Zhao Donghan's popularity suddenly dropped.
Ever since they drank together, Chu Che seemed to have regarded Xu Jie as a confidant. He often invited her to eat and chat together, and the topic naturally revolved around his crush. Although he never explicitly said who that person was, Xu Jie already knew it. She was so jealous that her teeth itched, but she had to pretend to be considerate and gentle on the surface. Not only was she willing to be a competent listener, she was also patient and comforted him in every possible way.
