The Only One With a Mouth in the CEO Novel - Chapter 32: The CEO Has Met His True Love...

Chapter 32: The CEO Has Met His True Love…

The overall situation was settled.

Ye Jin didn’t intervene in what followed.

Shu Lingxi and Gu Qingyang acted freely, each dealing with their respective handlers.

Half a month later, after completing her work at the distribution center, Ye Jin returned to Vastness to resume her position.

Her first priority upon returning was to monitor Yan Rong’s movements.

Ye Jin to Yan Rong:

How’s it going? Have you received the transfer order to return to headquarters?

I’m back at Vastness today. Looking forward to the day we meet.

Yan Rong to Ye Jin:

No.

In fact, I’ve been transferred even farther away.

When Ye Jin saw this message, she couldn’t help but chuckle aloud.

How unfortunate.

Immediately after, she silently apologized to him in her heart.

She could only return home after completing her mission.

So Assistant Yan would have to endure some hardship for a while.

Hundreds of kilometers away in a neighboring province, Yan Rong sent one final message to Ye Jin before directly logging out of his work account.

This time, not only was he being sent on another business trip,

But the CEO was also reclaiming his work account.

Last time, he had left in such a hurry that they couldn’t find someone to take over immediately, which was why the CEO had temporarily used his account.

But what was the reason this time?

Yan Rong pondered this repeatedly but couldn’t figure it out. Eventually, he gave up thinking and turned to pack his luggage.

Ye Jin to Yan Rong:

Another business trip? What a pity.

I specifically saved a bottle of fine wine to welcome you back.

As soon as Gu Chenxi logged in, he saw this unread message.

Pity?

That was just perfect.

Thinking about dating right under his nose? Absolutely impossible.

Now, Gu Chenxi only hoped that Assistant Ye would soon come to her senses and devote herself entirely to the company’s development in the future.

Gu Chenxi didn’t reply to this message intended for Yan Rong.

He had logged into Yan Rong’s account through the mobile app, while the accounts on his computer and tablet were his own.

Afterward, Gu Chenxi casually added a device lock to the mobile app.

After all, they would be spending day and night together for a long time to come—being cautious was definitely not wrong.

Another business trip.

Ye Jin was already quite proficient with her duties.

She had also grown accustomed to being Gu Chenxi’s mouthpiece.

At the communication summit, Gu Chenxi needed to deliver a speech as an outstanding young entrepreneur.

The draft was written by Gu Chenxi, but it was Ye Jin who delivered the speech on stage.

On the way back, the car was completely silent.

Gu Chenxi’s phone received a push notification from a public account—a report on the successful conclusion of the summit, complete with some photos.

Among them was a candid shot of Ye Jin standing at the podium.

She wore a dark gray women’s formal suit, one hand resting on the podium, wearing frameless glasses, appearing both sharp and intelligent.

Gu Chenxi’s gaze lingered on the photo for about five seconds.

Then, long-press—save.

Only then did he close his phone.

The person in the photo was right beside him.

Gu Chenxi tilted his head and instinctively glanced at Ye Jin.

Boss.Ye Jin keenly noticed his gaze and主动发问, ‘What is it?
Nothing.

Gu Chenxi indifferently withdrew his gaze.

Weirdo.

Ye Jin shifted uncomfortably in her seat.

No matter how luxurious the car, sitting for too long becomes uncomfortable.

Just moments ago, Ye Jin’s mind had wandered, thinking about matters of Another world.

After learning that she had mortgaged her house for a loan, Ms. Cheng Jinhua had become furious and was currently giving her the silent treatment.

Although they weren’t speaking.

But the old lady honestly went to the bank and went through the procedures to pay off the loan in one go.

With that, Ye Jin had one less thing on her mind.

It also freed up her energy to deal with some lingering issues:

Those bastards.

She had kindly brought them along to manage the accounts before, but they ended up taking over her accounts, leaving her with no way out.

During the previous period, she was struggling to keep herself afloat and didn’t have the time to deal with them, but that didn’t mean the matter was over.

Ye Jin’s mind was racing.

She suddenly turned and asked Gu Chenxi, Boss, if someone backstabs you, how would you handle it?
As soon as the question left her mouth,

Ye Jin realized she had asked the wrong person.

From the time she had transmigrated here,

hadn’t Gu Chenxi been backstabbed plenty of times? Betrayed by Gu Qingyang, betrayed by Guan Yan, and occasionally even subjected to rumors spread by Ye Jin herself about him having a white moonlight.

A dignified CEO, instead of dominating the business world and making companies fall with a snap of his fingers, was constantly being bullied by those around him.

It could only be described as pitiful.

And Gu Chenxi’s way of handling it was simple: endure it.

At most, when his core interests were threatened, he would plan carefully and foil their schemes.

Ah, sorry, President Gu.
Ye Jin apologized guiltily, I shouldn’t have asked you that.
Wasn’t that just deliberately rubbing salt in his wounds?

Gu Chenxi: ………

And here he had seriously considered how to answer.

Recently, Assistant Ye had handled everything beautifully, so Gu Chenxi had comfortably stayed behind the scenes, figuring that as long as the job got done, the process didn’t matter.

But now, Gu Chenxi was starting to regret it.

What kind of image had Assistant Ye formed of him?!

Gu Chenxi closed his eyes.

At the same time, he decided: next time something came up, he wouldn’t let Assistant Ye handle it alone.

Otherwise, he would completely lose face in her eyes.

Back at the company,

Ye Jin distributed the small gifts she had brought from her business trip to her colleagues.

Panda Sister quietly slipped her a piece of paper to read.

[Assistant Ye, want to go out for drinks and dinner tonight?]

It was color-printed.

Next to the text was a vintage-style magenta-colored cheers” meme.

Ye Jin nodded, Sure, you all pick the place. I’ll try to finish my work early.
Since returning to headquarters from the distribution center, most of her schedule had been filled with business trips. It had been a long time since she had eaten with her colleagues.

When it was time to clock out,

Panda Sister chose a small, unassuming eatery.

They all went together.

Once outside the company, everyone visibly relaxed. They opened a bottle of baijiu and some beer, and everyone had a little to drink.

Ye Jin made an effort to blend in, and they warmly welcomed her.

Soon, they were chatting freely.

She was particularly curious about whether the methods she had taught them for dealing with Gu Chenxi had actually been useful.

…Probably, yes.
One colleague said, There was one day when President Gu was in a particularly bad mood, giving off icy glares. We all kept our heads down and didn’t dare look at him.
Another colleague added, Not just one day—it went on for several days.
Really?” Ye Jin said, Was President Gu on his period or something?
She had always thought Gu Chenxi was pretty emotionally stable
Ye Jin pressed further, When did it start?
Colleague: It was a few days after you went on your business trip, Assistant Ye. I think it was a Wednesday.
Ye Jin stroked her chin.

Wednesday—wasn’t that the day of her video conference? Back then, she had even arranged for the male and female leads to meet.

The male lead and the female lead.

Their first encounter.

And the male lead had suddenly acted very strangely.

I’ve got it.
A spark of realization flashed in Ye Jin’s eyes, and she said earnestly, President Gu has met his soulmate.
Although she was a protagonist stan when reading novels, she’d still casually indulge in shipping the CP’s romantic development.

Ye Jin carefully recalled the scene, searching for moments to fuel her shipping heart.

At the time, Gu Chenxi had coldly and ruthlessly ended the video call, making her think the two didn’t hit it off.

But in private, he was actually this excited.

Who would’ve thought? He hid it pretty well.

Her colleague was very confused by this: But doesn’t President Gu already have a white moonlight?
What does having a white moonlight matter? Ye Jin helped fill in the setting. If the white moonlight isn’t coming back, should our President Gu remain single forever? Of course, he needs to find true love elsewhere.
Then how do you explain President Gu sending icy glares that could cut like blades? the colleague questioned again. Shouldn’t he be surrounded by pink bubbles when meeting his soulmate?
This question stumped Ye Jin.

She thought for a few seconds before saying:

Maybe President Gu just isn’t good at expressing himself…?
