Gu Yusheng was flipping through some documents. Seeing that Gu Yusheng had no intention of speaking, Xiaowang didn't ask why Qin Zhi 'ai was looking for them. Qin Zhi 'ai didn't want to disturb him while he was busy, so the room suddenly became silent.
After a few minutes, Gu Yusheng closed the documents and reached for the teacup in front of him. He glanced at Qin Zhi 'ai and asked, "What's the matter?"
After asking this question, he looked away, lowered his eyes, and took a sip of tea unhurriedly.
Hearing his question, Qin Zhi 'ai opened her bag and took out the contract that Xiaowang had given her two days ago. She gently placed it on the table and said with slight regret, "Master Gu, I'm sorry, but I might not be able to sign this contract."
Gu Yusheng's hand, which was holding the teacup, shook slightly, and the tea spilled out. The back of his white hand felt slightly hot.
His expression was surprisingly calm, and the way he put the teacup down was so steady that no one could feel any emotional fluctuations on his face.
"Hui Shi is really good, and I like it very much, but the school is sending me to the United States in March as an exchange student for a year …" Qin Zhi 'ai paused and then continued, "Master Gu, you know that this is a better choice for me. I don't want to miss this opportunity."
As a top student, if she was recommended to go abroad by the school, she would most likely be retained by the school as a university teacher.
For a girl, a university teacher would have a stable job, a high salary, and a generous year-end bonus. She would also have the opportunity to become a professor in the future. She would have a bright future. It would indeed be much better than staying at Hui Shi as a secretary.
What an irresistible answer … Xiaowang had wanted to persuade her to stay, but when he heard Qin Zhi 'ai's words, he immediately shut his mouth.
Secretary Qin is indeed a good employee, but I can't force her to stay just because she's a good employee. That would ruin her bright future.
Xiaowang subconsciously turned to look at Gu Yusheng.
Gu Yusheng stared at the contract on the table for a while, then raised his eyes to look at Qin Zhi 'ai. After about ten seconds, he moved his lips, but his words were not directed at her, but at Xiaowang, who was standing beside him. "Xiaowang, please leave us for a moment."
"Huh?" Xiaowang was stunned. Then, he quickly got up, grabbed his phone, and quickly walked out of the private room.
Xiaowang closed the door, leaving only the two of them in the room.
He sat motionlessly on the sofa, tilted his head, and stared fixedly at the withered branches of a hundred-year-old tree outside the window. No one knew what he was thinking.
Qin Zhi 'ai wasn't sure what he wanted to say to her after he drove Xiaowang away, so she just sat there and waited.
The silence lasted for a long time, so long that Qin Zhi 'ai's body stiffened. Gu Yusheng, who hadn't moved his eyes away from the window, suddenly said, "Do you remember the girl I mentioned to you the night we came back from Hainan?"
Qin Zhi 'ai replied, "Yes."
The room fell silent again. This time, after a short while, Gu Yusheng asked again, "Do you know that girl?"
Qin Zhi 'ai hadn't expected him to suddenly ask such a question. She was stunned and didn't say anything.
Gu Yusheng slowly turned his head and looked into her eyes. As if he had thought about it carefully, he said seriously, "Or, are you her?"
