Oops, I had a ONS With My Secret Ex-husband -
Chapter 19 Mistaken for Mrs. Gu
Chapter 19: Chapter 19 Mistaken for Mrs. Gu
The entire office knew that Assistant Li was Gu Qixiao’s personal assistant, but the receptionist felt something big was happening when she saw Assistant Li chatting happily with the head of the Canning Group.
"Hmm? What’s wrong?" Assistant Li was not aware of the awkward incident that just occurred.
The receptionist, seeing that Assistant Li was clueless, didn’t say much and watched them leave.
It was only later in the elevator when Cai Xun directly called Assistant Li "Mr. Li" that Assistant Li understood what the receptionist meant earlier.
"Sorry, I am President Gu’s special assistant."
Hearing Assistant Li introduce himself, Cai Xun was stunned for a moment, feeling quite awkward.
Fortunately, before the awkwardness lasted too long, the elevator, which had been going up, stopped, and as they were preparing to leave, a woman walked in from the other side.
The woman wasn’t extraordinarily beautiful, but she didn’t have the unsettling look of a cosmetic surgery face.
Song Xuan, who had just come out of the private elevator, was thinking about how to find Gu Qixiao for a moment before seeing Assistant Li and Cai Xun coming out of the other elevator.
She was just pondering what excuse to use when her eyes lit up.
"Miss Li." When Assistant Li saw Song Xuan, there was no hesitation, as if the events of the past few days hadn’t happened.
After greeting Song Xuan quite naturally, Assistant Li was about to take Cai Xun to the CEO’s office when Song Xuan stopped him after just a few steps.
"Assistant Li, is Xiao in the office?"
Though feeling a bit speechless internally, Assistant Li nodded in response to her.
Without further words, he knocked directly on Gu Qixiao’s office door.
Gu Qixiao, who had been waiting in the CEO’s office for Cai Xun, had already planned the next direction of cooperation, willing to help the other small workshop-scale company up if they were obedient enough.
Even though Cai Xun didn’t know Gu Qixiao had such an arrogant thought, they were determined to secure cooperation with the Gu family Group.
However, just as both were eagerly looking forward to the upcoming conversation, Song Xuan was the first to rush in after Assistant Li pushed open the CEO’s office door.
"Xiao!"
Song Xuan didn’t need to say much; a single call of "Xiao" made Gu Qixiao want to flee.
But since the partners were still there and Song Xuan had special significance to him, Gu Qixiao suddenly felt his head starting to ache again.
Clearly, he had felt much better just now, but who would have thought that it would start again so soon.
Even the well-thought-out cooperation plan seemed less appealing!
Being the CEO, Gu Qixiao naturally couldn’t voice everything he was thinking.
Afterwards, the CEO’s office was filled with an eerie atmosphere as everyone looked at each other.
Assistant Li, seeing Gu Qixiao looking troubled, prepared to solve the problem proactively, but before he could speak, Cai Xun had already processed everything himself.
"Since Mrs. Gu has business with President Gu, we can wait for a while."
After saying this, Cai Xun quickly left the office, and Assistant Li, who initially wanted to help his boss, felt only frustrated after hearing his words.
But since customers had arrived at the company, they still needed to be arranged for; thinking of this, Assistant Li hurriedly followed.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Cai, I’ll take you to the meeting room."
Being mistaken for Mrs. Gu made Song Xuan inwardly delighted.
Especially since Gu Qixiao didn’t voice that she wasn’t Mrs. Gu, which only encouraged Song Xuan’s fantasies about Gu Qixiao.
Now that Assistant Li and Cai Xun had already left the CEO’s office, Song Xuan naturally walked over to Gu Qixiao.
At some point, she had taken out a food box and placed it in front of him.
"Xiao, I was thinking about how busy you’ve been with work lately, always running around for my sake, so I specially prepared this for you."
Although Gu Qixiao didn’t wish to accept Song Xuan’s goodwill, after all, Song Xuan wasn’t doing anything outrageous at that moment.
He didn’t pay attention to Song Xuan’s self-congratulatory approach to food giving, but after giving her a glance, he stated that he had work to do and left straight for the meeting room.
Gu Qixiao’s time in the meeting room was short, so short that Assistant Li never had a chance to explain Song Xuan’s relationship with Gu Qixiao to Cai Xun.
Later, as both teams needed to negotiate a series of cooperation issues, everyone forgot about it.
Cai Xun, unaware that he had mistaken someone for Mrs. Gu, had already started pondering how to expedite collaboration with the Gus Group.
Thinking about how Song Xuan approached earlier, a plan gradually formed in Cai Xun’s mind.
The teams on both sides didn’t have much disagreement on the issues, given the interconnectedness of the construction industry, so Gu Qixiao wasn’t too worried.
As for Cai Xun, aside from wanting to expedite collaboration, he was more concerned about his future status as a wealthy young master.
Collaboration with the Gus Group was the primary objective for the Canning Group aiming for societal advancement, so Cai Xun didn’t have much objection to this cooperation.
Even though the teams successfully concluded their discussions, to expedite his own company’s collaboration with the Gus Group, Cai Xun still planned for a "coincidental meeting" with Mrs. Gu later.
At this point, Song Xuan, unaware of being targeted, was preparing to leave after pestering Gu Qixiao for some time post-meeting, only to sense being watched when she reached downstairs.
Not long after departing, she ended up coincidentally encountering Cai Xun again.
Knowing his plan was being executed step by step, Cai Xun smiled and greeted "Mrs. Gu" with a flattering tone.
"Mrs. Gu."
Being called "Mrs. Gu" made Song Xuan’s once alert gaze towards Cai Xun soften instantly.
Having always believed that Gu Qixiao liked her, the misunderstanding by Cai Xun made Song Xuan exceedingly excited.
She was filled with affirmation of her own thoughts.
"I knew Xiao must like me. Doing those things earlier was definitely to test if I truly liked him."
Engrossed in a world of her own due to Cai Xun’s "Mrs. Gu", Song Xuan continually fantasized about her future with Gu Qixiao, completely forgetting Cai Xun’s presence.
If Cai Xun hadn’t been following her consistently, Song Xuan, lost in her thoughts, almost ended up back in the hospital shortly after leaving it.
"Mrs. Gu, be careful!"
Sunk in her future fantasies, Song Xuan avoided being hit by a moving vehicle thanks to Cai Xun’s timely intervention.
Personally witnessing the car brush past her, Song Xuan felt anxious, not out of fear for nearly getting hurt, but for fear of Gu Qixiao being sad if something happened to her.
The immersive fantasies Song Xuan entertained since being called "Mrs. Gu" by Cai Xun increased, and even after ensuring safety, she didn’t think to maintain a distance from him.
Assistant Li, who saw everything clearly from the sidelines, quickly went upstairs to report it to Gu Qixiao without missing a detail.
Expecting that Gu Qixiao might truly be angry, Assistant Li found that Gu Qixiao wasn’t bothered, so he didn’t ask much and prepared to follow instructions.
"Find someone to follow her and ensure her safety."
