Chapter 255 -255: Want to be Mi Chen’s CEO’s Wife?
Zhong Xiaoyi woke up in a daze early in the morning.
Smelling the fragrance of rice porridge, she opened the door and saw her own mother bustling about in the kitchen.
“Mom.”
Mrs. Zhong looked at Zhong Xiaoyi and reached out to touch her forehead, saying, “Mr. Gu said you’re sick? If you can’t take care of yourself, how can I rest assured letting you go to Australia alone?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Isn’t my cousin there too? Just relax.”
Mrs. Zhong went to get the medicine box and took out an ear thermometer to measure Zhong Xiaoyi’s temperature: “Your temperature is fine, have you taken any fever reducers?”
Zhong Xiaoyi nodded and said, “Mm, I took some last night. Mom, I already resigned to Mr. Gu last night, I want to leave now.”
Mrs. Zhong looked at Zhong Xiaoyi in front of her and just sighed, “Wasn’t the plane ticket bought for a month later? Why are you leaving now?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Yesterday Mr. Gu told me to leave this morning, there’s no need for me to stay any longer. I initially wanted to go back to our hometown to see Dad, but considering that it’s nearly the end of the term, and Dad is busy with soon-to-be high school seniors, I decided not to disturb him. I will go to Australia early to get used to it.”
Mrs. Zhong patted Zhong Xiaoyi’s shoulder and said, “Remember to come back to visit when you have a break. The Gu Family has been kind to us over the years, and you don’t need to worry about the flight ticket. Come back whenever you want, and if you run out of living expenses, you must tell Mom. It’s inconvenient for you abroad.”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Mom, I’ll fly back whenever I have a long holiday.”
After eating breakfast, Zhong Xiaoyi went back to her small room to pack her belongings, of which she didn’t have many.
After all, she knew this was just her dormitory, so she dared not leave too much stuff here.
Many little trinkets were gifts from Gu Hanchen on ordinary days.
Zhong Xiaoyi picked up her diary and looked around the room at everything. After she moved out, perhaps someone would soon move into the maid’s room.
After feeding the rabbit, Zhong Xiaoyi stroked the little bunny’s head and said, “Goodbye.”
Zhong Xiaoyi looked towards Gu Hanchen’s room door. Holding the handle of her suitcase, she thought for a long time but did not say goodbye to Gu Hanchen. As Zhong Xiaoyi was about to change shoes and leave at the doorway,
Gu Hanchen’s room door opened, and Gu Hanchen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, pressed the wheelchair’s button, “Mrs. Zhong, what did you cook? It smells good.”
Gu Hanchen saw the mother and daughter at the door, heard Mrs. Zhong’s admonitions to Zhong Xiaoyi to be extra careful abroad,
and saw the pink large suitcase beside Zhong Xiaoyi. He frowned and glared at Zhong Xiaoyi, saying, “You’re leaving?”

Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Isn’t that what you said last night, asking me to leave this morning?”
Gu Hanchen said, “Can’t you understand what an angry remark is? Who allowed you to leave?!”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Mr. Gu, you can’t go back on your word, and besides, it’s the 21st century, not ancient times where I signed a servitude contract. If I want to leave, I’ll leave, and I don’t even need this month’s salary.”
Gu Hanchen furrowed his brows, “Didn’t you say you were starting school at the end of July? Why are you going there now?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “I want to go earlier to get acquainted so I can focus on my studies when school starts.”
Gu Hanchen furrowed his brows tightly, “Do you insist on leaving?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “I have no reason not to leave. I’m going to study, and I want to make myself better.”
“It’s just a degree you buy with money, what’s that got to do with becoming better?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said, “Mr. Gu, it’s not a degree you just get by spending money, it’s not that simple to apply.”
Gu Hanchen said, “I want to eat little wontons. Make me a portion of little wontons before you leave.”
Zhong Xiaoyi said: “The frozen wontons that Chairman Yuan used to buy for you came from a husband-and-wife shop. I’ll give you the address of that wonton shop, so if you crave some wontons, you can go there or have someone pack them up and bring them to you.”
Gu Hanchen said: “Damn! Why did I feel that the pork had an unfresh taste? Yuan Xi actually fed me that? I want freshly made ones.”
Mrs. Zhong said: “Mr. Gu, it seems we don’t have the ingredients to make wontons here. I’ll go back to the old Gu Family residence to get them, and then I’ll make some wontons for you.”
As she spoke, Mrs. Zhong took off her apron and left.
After Mrs. Zhong left, Gu Hanchen wheeled his chair to block the door, looked up at Zhong Xiaoyi in front of him and said: “You going abroad to study won’t make you any better! If you stay at Mi Chen, I can offer you the position of Mi Chen’s Deputy General Manager.”
Zhong Xiaoyi said in surprise: “I lack both the experience and the ability right now…”
“I’m not saying I’ll give it to you right now. I’m just saying that working by my side for two years, your prospects for future development will be much better than going to Australia to do a two-year master’s degree. I also won’t interfere with you pursuing a part-time master’s degree domestically.”
Gu Hanchen said: “Isn’t that a generous offer?”
Zhong Xiaoyi had to admit that she was very tempted. Leaving Mi Chen and Gu Hanchen, her starting point and endpoint would not be like this.
Zhong Xiaoyi said: “Mr. Gu, I still have to leave.”
Gu Hanchen grabbed Zhong Xiaoyi’s wrist, “You don’t care for the position of Deputy General Manager at Mi Chen? What do you want? Do you want to be the CEO’s wife?”
Zhong Xiaoyi turned her head to look at Gu Hanchen sitting in the wheelchair, “Mr. Gu, that joke isn’t funny.”
Gu Hanchen released Zhong Xiaoyi’s wrist and irritably ruffled his hair, dark circles under his eyes. Annoyed, he lit a cigarette.
Zhong Xiaoyi, seeing Gu Hanchen smoking, took two steps back with distaste.
Gu Hanchen: “So you despise me this much? I’ve never been despised like this in my life, Zhong Xiaoyi, let me ask you, do I really deserve your disdain? Would you rather be with no man in the world than with me?”
Gu Hanchen stood up from the wheelchair, looking down at Zhong Xiaoyi from above: “Look at me and ask yourself, where do I fall short in terms of looks?”
Zhong Xiaoyi dared not look into Gu Hanchen’s eyes.
But after Gu Hanchen threw away the cigarette, he held Zhong Xiaoyi’s face with both hands: “Look at me.”
Zhong Xiaoyi looked up into Gu Hanchen’s eyes, and with no place to hide, she was forced to gaze directly into his eyes.
She felt her heartbeat racing.
Gu Hanchen said: “Tell me, what is it about me that you find so detestable? You refrain from liking someone as young, accomplished, and handsome as I am, and pine after someone else. How can your taste be so poor?”
Zhong Xiaoyi: “…”
“Mr. Gu, don’t you blush boasting about yourself like that?”
Gu Hanchen said: “Is it not true that I am young and accomplished? Am I not handsome?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said: “You’re almost thirty, how can you still be considered young and accomplished?”
Gu Hanchen scoffed, “Go look around the world and see how many people under thirty have started their own business and own a publicly listed company?”
Zhong Xiaoyi whispered: “Aren’t there a bunch of them in CEO novels?”
Gu Hanchen didn’t hear her clearly and asked: “What did you say?”
Zhong Xiaoyi said: “Nothing.”
“Zhong Xiaoyi, I really think you must be blind. Seeing my face every day, yet you guard against falling for me and pine after someone else. Your taste is truly terrible.”
