The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 780 - 795: Could it be that you offended her?

Zhong Li looked at him as if he were some oddity: "What are you talking about? President Gu and I don’t have the kind of relationship you think we do."

"Come on, drop it. I called you on Saturday, but President Gu answered. He said you were asleep and didn’t want me to disturb you."

The two of them stopped at the elevator, and Zhong Li raised his hand to press the button: "Did you need something when you called me?"

"President Qi said there was an urgent document that needed to be delivered to his home."

Even though he knew it was just an excuse from his boss, Assistant Wang could only play along. After all, he’s the best at handling people.

This Gu Nanxi actually answered her phone without telling her.

After the elevator doors opened, Zhong Li and Assistant Wang walked in together: "Did you end up delivering that document to President Qi?"

"I sent it over, don’t worry." Assistant Wang said, as if suddenly remembering something: "Stop dodging the question, just tell me what’s going on between you and President Gu?"

"I’m currently single, and as for President Gu answering my phone, it’s because I accidentally left it in his car earlier."

"And he said you were asleep?"

Zhong Li shrugged innocently: "Now that, I don’t know. Maybe you should ask President Gu why he lied to you?"

Ha, ask President Gu? He’s got to be kidding.

When they exited the elevator, they saw Li Jiaxue standing at the office entrance from a distance, and Assistant Wang murmured quietly: "Is Empress Dowager Cixi here to see us?"

Zhong Li glanced at Li Jiaxue standing at the door but said nothing.

"Hello, President Li." Once inside, Assistant Wang greeted Li Jiaxue with a smile.

This company was founded by Li Jiaxue and Qi Shangyu’s father, so all the old employees called her President Li.

Li Jiaxue nodded and then turned her gaze to Zhong Li: "Make me a cup of coffee and bring it to the president’s office."

"Alright, I’ll do it right away."

Zhong Li’s face remained indifferent, as if nothing had happened before.

After watching Li Jiaxue leave, Assistant Wang finally took a deep breath: "So she just wanted you to make a cup of coffee for the office? That scared me."

"Is she that terrifying? It’s not like she could eat you." Zhong Li said while pushing the door open and entering the office. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Assistant Wang used to work under Li Jiaxue. Her decisiveness and ruthlessness made it impossible not to fear her. Maybe it left some trauma, so he still can’t help feeling scared when he sees her.

"Why did Empress Dowager Cixi specifically ask for you to make coffee? Did you offend her or something?"

Assistant Wang gave Zhong Li a look that said you better take care of yourself.

Zhong Li put down the bag in her hand and smiled: "Who knows? I’ll go make the coffee first."

When Zhong Li left the office, she went straight to the pantry. She remembered that last time Li Jiaxue mentioned she liked it with sugar but no milk, so this time Zhong Li made the coffee according to her preference before heading to the president’s office.

She knocked lightly on the door a few times and entered after hearing a response.

She walked to the couch, leaned over, and placed the coffee on the table: "President Li, here’s the coffee you requested. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going."

Zhong Li kept a gentle smile on her face the whole time. Hearing Assistant Wang call her President Li earlier, Zhong Li followed suit.

Li Jiaxue picked up the coffee from the table, took a small sip, and smiled at Qi Shangyu: "Last night, your cousin called me saying he’s overwhelmed with work abroad and asked us to send someone over. I think your assistant would be perfect,"
