Jiang Jingcheng felt uneasy and didn’t even dare to look up at Gu Manman’s expression. He didn’t know what he should do if Gu Manman cried now. Did he have to swallow his pride and coax her?

“I see.”

Unexpectedly, Gu Manman did not cry. Instead, she chose to go find Gu Yan with Jiang Jingcheng to clarify the matter. Although Gu Manman was sad about what Jiang Jingcheng had said and did not want to face Gu Yan, she would have to leave the studio if she did not compromise. If she left here, all her hard work would be wasted.

She didn’t want all her efforts to be in vain. Since she was flexible, she could hold her head high in the future. There would always be opportunities, so she was not in a hurry at this time.

Jiang Jingcheng was obviously stunned, for he had not expected that Gu Manman reacted this way, but he quickly reacted. Now Gu Manman had already gone out of his office and been on the way to Gu Yan’s office. He quickly went after Gu Manman, for fear that she would cause him troubles again.

In the beginning, Gu Yan was very angry. When she returned to her office, she thought about it carefully and suppressed the anger in her heart. She was not stupid and knew that Gu Manman was hostile to her. She would not be Gu Yan if she could not detect Gu Manman’s hostility towards her after Gu Manman had targeted her several times.

However, Gu Yan could not figure out where Gu Manman’s hostility came from. There must be a reason for it. She did not know when she had offended Gu Manman. As she thought about it, her anger seemed to have subsided.

“Could it be…” A thought suddenly flashed through her mind. Could it be that Gu Manman thought of her as a rival in love? Gu Yan found it funny, but after thinking about it carefully, it was not impossible, wasn’t it?

Yesterday, everyone had gone out to rest. In the entire conference room, there was only Jiang Jingcheng and herself, as well as Gu Manman, who they had not noticed at first.

“Why didn’t Gu Manman leave the conference room at that time?” Gu Yan felt that she already had the answer in her heart. Wasn’t it because Gu Manman wanted to keep Jiang Jingcheng under her watch all the time and didn’t want him to have the chance to interact with other women? Since Gu Yan had figured it out, her anger towards Gu Manman decreased a lot.

She remembered Qi Changfeng said that Jiang Jingcheng was the same angry when he misunderstood the relationship between him and Gu Manman. It seemed that something must be going on between the two young people. Gu Yan laughed to herself, “Why are these young people so awkward now?”

But Gu Manman was indeed irresponsible for working with what she had done. Although Gu Yan understood her motive, Gu Manman still failed to complete her work. Gu Yan disliked irresponsible people. What was worse, Gu Manman got this job due to her relationship with Qi Changfeng.

Although Gu Yan’s studio wasn’t a big company, she still had great confidence in the prospects of her studio. Therefore, her requirements for her employees could be said to be very high. Although her studio wasn’t very powerful in the industry, she still couldn’t tolerate those who entered through the back door.

In the entire studio, Gu Manman was the only one who had entered through the back door. Gu Yan didn’t want to tolerate it. If it hadn’t been Qi Changfeng’s decision made first before reporting to her, she would never have accepted Gu Manman, unless her resume was really outstanding.

But now, it was useless to think too much about it. Gu Manman was already an employee of the studio. Even if she did it for Qi Changfeng’s sake, she could not fire Gu Manman at will. She was conflicted. At last, she decided to keep Gu Manman in the studio for a little longer, and see if she was qualified for the job. She was still prejudiced against Gu Manman because of Qi Changfeng.

She knew that her idea was inappropriate. Now she was seeing Gu Manman with prejudice, and could not objectively evaluate Gu Manman. She knew that she was biased by doing this, so she decided in her heart to give Gu Manman another chance. If Gu Manman failed in her job one more time, she would never give Gu Manman another chance.

She could not completely trust Gu Manman for her willfulness.

Would she really be able to hand over the work to her without worry? Obviously, Gu Yan was resisting this idea. Even though Qi Changfeng had already given Gu Manman a guarantee, Gu Yan had her own considerations.

Although she and Qi Changfeng were very good friends, and she knew that he wouldn’t joke about something like this with her, she still couldn’t help wondering if she should discuss this matter with Jiang Jingcheng. After all, Gu Manman had worked with Jiang Jingcheng for so long that he should know something about her.

Gu Yan did not know if it was better for her to ask Jiang Jingcheng. After all, this was not just her own matter. It also involved the reputation of her studio and all sorts of other problems.

Thinking so much gave Gu Yan a headache. There were so many company affairs that she needed to deal with, as well as a lot of her private matters. These things made her feel mentally exhausted.

Moreover, she knew that it was just a small matter and there was no way to punish Gu Manman at all. If others saw this, they would think that she was narrow-minded and unforgiving. Plus, with Qi Changfeng’s relationship with Gu Manman, it was impossible for her to treat Gu Manman as an ordinary employee of the studio.

These complicated relationships and ways of handling problems left Gu Yan exhausted.

Jiang Jingcheng followed Gu Manman to Gu Yan’s office. Gu Manman knocked on the door. Gu Yan had already calmed down and was no longer angry at what Gu Manman had just said. She just had doubts about Gu Manman’s work attitude, but she still forced herself to evaluate Gu Manman objectively.

Hearing the knock made by Gu Manman, Gu Yan agreed to let her come in. But Gu Yan had not expected that it was Gu Manman coming in and had not gotten any ready for it. She had not expected that Jiang Jingcheng could have persuaded Gu Manman so quickly.

He was able to make Gu Manman appear in her office so quickly. It seemed that a girl in love was willing to make concessions again and again for the man she loved.

“Ms. Gu, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have spoken to you like that just now. I’ve already prepared the materials.” As Gu Manman apologized to Gu Yan, she put the materials she had prepared on Gu Yan’s desk. Gu Manman’s apology was not sincere. The reason why she came to apologize was entirely because of Jiang Jingcheng. What Jiang Jingcheng said played a big role in her heart.
