Section 3
I remember now. She said at the time: "If you are waiting for me to apologize, you are bound to be disappointed. I rarely admit my mistakes."
Cheng Xiao picked up the phone and asked in a casual tone: "What, are you inviting me to your wedding?"
Gu Nanting couldn't help but admire her. However, what he really wanted to know was: how many relationships had she had before him? What significance did this man hold for her today? Why did she disregard her own safety to collide with a car?
Before the apology could be expressed, it was interrupted. Gu Nanting spoke in a cold voice: "Let her speak."
So I am angry that he no longer wants to be together, why not just be straightforward about it? Cheng Xiao smiled bitterly, It seems that in his eyes, I, Cheng Xiao, am a petty woman. Or does he think that I love him to the extent of being inseparable?
Yesterday, on the plane, the summer solstice began to evoke a flurry of thoughts, "He is ... ..."
Gu Nanting suppressed his temper and reminded, "Fasten your seatbelt!"
The board members will certainly have no objections, and once again, let us congratulate the "new master" on their ascension with applause
Being together is a matter of mutual willingness; since there is no intention to continue, it makes no difference who leaves whom in the end. Cheng Xiao turned over, facing away from her, and closed her eyes. Moreover, a man like him, even if not immersed in alcohol, is certainly lying in the embrace of desire; without a strong constitution, how can he endure it?
Cheng Xiao shrugged her shoulders, looking helpless yet resigned, and said: "I'm sorry"
Summer Solstice kicked her and said: "Were you pretending to be asleep before?"
The summer solstice is of no concern, it is merely difficult to find peace of mind, "At that time, how good he was to you."
Although this is a matter of course, there are still ambitious individuals who intend to monopolize power. However, due to insufficient shares, they are unable to replace others. They can only remain inactive and wait for the right opportunity. Therefore, how much of this applause is genuine congratulations, and how much is hypocritical flattery, Gu Changming, who has experienced numerous battles, is still aware of it
But Cheng Xiao knew that he was angry However, whether he was angry or not had nothing to do with her
Did you forget to take your medicine?" Xia Zhi tugged at her blanket, "I never knew you had become someone who holds no grudges.
He clearly paused for a moment at her unexpected response: "I am downstairs, come down and we can talk."
The summer solstice is still considered normal, knowing to turn back and show weakness to the books: "I apologize, sir, we did not mean to, you wouldn't really make things difficult for us, would you? Yes!"
"What the heck!" During the summer solstice, she wished she could strangle her. "Such a handsome benefactor looks familiar to you, Cheng Xiao, how could you let him down?"

Lin Ziji, 36 years old, head of the flight department, a senior captain, is known for his steady and pragmatic demeanor. However, when Lin Ziji presented him with the itinerary for the week, Gu Nanting was puzzled: "How is my itinerary related to the flight department?"
This time, Cheng Xiao's expression turned cold: "Apart from peeping and eavesdropping, I am very curious about how many other bad habits you have."
Cheng Xiao glared at her and said, "You used to be thin, that is quite impressive"
Cheng Xiao's gaze glided over his slightly raised chin and landed on those pitch-black, deep-set eyes: "Now I know what to say."
Therefore, from the time she went abroad to study aviation until later when there was no news from him, Cheng Xiao had already understood. Or rather, from the very beginning, she had never hoped for a lasting relationship with Fei Yaotian. Such a negative love should come to an end as soon as possible, so as not to waste each other's time
Yesterday at the airport, he asked her: "Do you have something to say to me?"
Lin Ziji explained: "The Human Resources Department has already screened and evaluated the assistant candidates recommended by each department, and we are just waiting for your decision. Until the new assistant is in place, I will act as the proxy."
Gu Nanting glanced at her faintly proud demeanor, truly at a loss for words
The ringtone of the phone sounded particularly jarring in the quiet of the night, startling Xia Zhi awake.
What is this logic? Do you mean: if he did not betray you, you wouldn't mind being dumped?
Cappuccino? If he remembered correctly, there was no such thing as cappuccino coffee in the market system. After careful consideration, Lin Ziji replied cautiously, "I will have my colleagues in the Human Resources Department check on that right away"
What is this? Cheng Xiao retorted with a cold smile: "What you have seen is merely the tip of the iceberg"
Summer solstice pinches the excess flesh at the waist: "Then why haven't I lost weight?"

In the year that Gu Nanting graduated from the flight school, Gu Changming, under the guise of a coming-of-age ceremony, gifted his son 10% of the shares in China Southern Airlines, allowing him to enter the board of directors. Five years later, on Gu Nanting's twenty-sixth birthday, he was encouraged to return with advanced management models and concepts from the international aviation industry, which can be seen as a thoughtful endeavor.
Cheng Xiao naturally replied: "Why don't you stop? If we don't talk until dawn, it would be a waste of your eloquence"
* * * * * * * * * *
On the side of the benefactor of Porsche, regarding the summer solstice, he should be a gentleman who would not treat Cheng Xiao poorly
Gu Nanting took out his phone to check the calendar, confirming that he had not remembered incorrectly. At this time, Qiao Qino should have been in the market system for about a year, just beginning to make a name for himself. Why is it now—
Cheng Xiao did not hide it, "The person who picked up my boarding pass!"
In the face of his aloof and proud demeanor, Cheng Xiao continued, "If possible, please show some mercy."
That is indeed the case. However, "Am I not doing this for your own good? Fine, I won't say anything more. In any case, having broken you apart, I can consider my mission accomplished"
I am not an actor and have no obligation to let people watch a good show for free. Therefore, I am not prepared to take responsibility for the car accident as a 'viewing fee.'" She glanced at his meticulously tailored suit, "You can sue me for hit-and-run. I believe with your abilities, it won't be difficult to find me and sue me until I am bankrupt.
Gu Nanting stood with his hands in his pockets, surveying her with a cold and piercing gaze, waiting for her to continue.
What happened to the promised time difference? On the summer solstice, I felt a headache, "I've never seen a heart bigger than yours!" Although I said this, I kindly turned off the bedside lamp on Cheng Xiao's side. As a result, I was wide awake, tossing and turning unable to sleep.
How wonderful was that time? Cheng Xiao actually cannot remember.
What if not
How did she respond
At 1:30 PM, it was Lin Ziji's turn to submit the work report to Gu Nanting
This is absolutely unacceptable
Otherwise? Should she also slap a check on her own face?
She hung up after speaking and lay down after turning off her phone
The sunlight after the rain filters through the leaves, casting mottled shadows on his face. With his short hair, tailored suit, and calm yet piercing gaze, his entire presence exudes a chill far colder than the early summer weather
It seems that the matter of the car accident has come to a conclusion
At first, I looked down on him, and Coffee even advised me, saying, "Like a fish drinking water, only you know whether it's warm or cold; as long as you think it's good, that's enough." In the end, I actually wasted my youth on a scumbag. Hey, I said to you... What else is there to say about Xia Zhi and the book? Next to me, Miss Cheng has already started to snore softly.
As for Cheng Xiao, does she no longer intend to pursue Fei Yao's intentions?
Even if he has not encountered countless people, Gu Nanting, who is adept at strategizing, is still aware of the true intentions behind the facade. He publicly set a military order: "Within one year, the annual performance of China Southern Airlines must increase by 20%."
Ignoring Porsche's "emotional distress," Gu Nanting strode forward directly towards Cheng Xiao
Cheng Xiao calmly saved the file, closed her laptop, and after crawling into bed in the bedroom, she said: "Being together is merely having a companion to pass the time with, is there any semblance of a romantic relationship?"
Are you going to ruin yourself? I truly have the leisure to enjoy this!
They indeed do not have the dependence and intimacy of lovers. However, Xia Zhi rushed into the bedroom and said, "After all, you have established a romantic relationship."
Indeed, Gu Nanting witnessed the previous scene. Regardless of how much Miss BMW knew, he had already made a rough guess. If Cheng Xiao had not lost her reason in a fit of rage and unknowingly crashed into his car while reversing, her audacity to hit the BMW and her nonchalance in tossing the check exuded a certain aura of a legitimate wife tearing apart a mistress.
As drowsiness set in, Cheng Xiao's voice gradually lowered, "I should be grateful to him for leaving me the opportunity to say goodbye."
The reasoning is not wrong, but—Xiazhi leaned over to glance at the computer, unable to understand why she still had the mood to work on her resume at this moment. "So you're just going to swallow your anger? Didn't you hear? That BMW was a gift for that woman from him. A BMW! What did he ever give you when you were together? It's not about the money I'm concerned with, it's his favoritism!"
After the meeting, employees of China Southern Airlines received an appointment notice for Gu Nan Ting in their inboxes. In no time, the young vice president became the focal point of discussion throughout the company. The Cabin Service Department, having learned that Gu Nan Ting returned to City G on a flight operated by the company, had many speculations about him
The implication was clear... Gu Nanting restrained himself for a moment before asking, "Who are all the people involved?"
You may not be innocent either! "Xiazhi squinted slightly: 'Do you dare to say that you haven't developed feelings for someone else?'"
He gazed at her directly, his features distinct, no longer revealing any emotion.
People are bound to change
Cheng Xiao lost to her imagination: "I just met him for the first time on the plane yesterday. With * pictures * books"
I really want to ask her where her confidence comes from that he will not hold her accountable for her repeated offenses unless—
The tone of the command subtly revealed a sense of familiarity. Familiarity? Xia Zhi was certain that this was her first time meeting him. Thus, such a thought lasted only a moment before she dismissed it.
Gu Nanting's gaze was sharp and bright: "Wait a moment."
On Monday, in the drizzling weather, the board meeting of China Southern Airlines was held as scheduled. At exactly 9:00, Gu Changming arrived at the meeting room with his son. The directors had already reached a resolution and were aware of the theme of today's meeting. Therefore, when Gu Nanting appeared, everyone applauded.
Cheng Xiao turned around, her face displaying an openness as if waiting for him to impart his teachings
* * * * * * * * * *
Lin Ziji reported two names, both of which are top candidates evaluated by the Human Resources Department
Fearing to wake Cheng Xiao, she hurried to grab her phone. Upon seeing the name on the screen, she almost gritted her teeth and said: "Dare to deliver yourself to my door!" Just as she was about to answer and give them a scolding, a hand reached from behind and took the phone from her hand
Will she also relent? Gu Nanting looked down at her and smiled, "I thought a check would be thrown in my face. For that, I was a bit anxious and excited."
The person Miss BMW wants to hold accountable is Cheng Xiao's boyfriend, Fei Yao, or more accurately, her ex-boyfriend
Cheng Xiao rejected without a second thought, saying, "There is no need. Although this is the first time I, Cheng Xiao, have experienced such a thing, the words of explanation and apology are all too familiar. Let us not waste our emotions. Given my vengeful nature, I certainly will not wish you happiness. I only advise you this: improve your family upbringing and do not let that ridiculous fiancée of yours provoke me again. Otherwise, I will not be polite."
A smile appeared on the lips of some directors, and the applause was also in recognition of the youthful exuberance of the young people
The voice is crisp, and the thoughts are clear; how could it possibly seem like just waking up?
Gu Nanting did not explain, but instead provocatively said: "The world of emotions is quite rich"
To pledge oneself in devotion!
However, Gu Nanting slightly furrowed his brows and asked, "What about the market system's Qiaqino?"
Therefore, when assisting his son onto the horse, he inevitably had to make another journey: "After graduating from the South Pavilion Aviation School, he has safely flown for over 3,000 hours with one of the top three companies among the world's top ten airlines. In the past two years, he has served as the Vice President of Daxin Airlines in Country X, accumulating rich experience in safety and operational management. His previous proposals for enhancing the company's hardware facilities, namely the 'Special Charter Flights' and 'Inspection Charter Flights' services, have become key to the company's performance improvement this year. After the board's deliberation, it has been decided that starting today, South Pavilion will officially return to China Southern Airlines, taking on the role of Executive Vice President.
China Southern Airlines, one of the fastest-growing enterprises in the aviation industry, is currently regarded as a leader in the field alongside Hainan Airlines and Ming Airlines. Its current owner, Gu Changming, is set to step back today, transferring authority to his only son, Gu Nanting
Gu Nanting remained silent, his expression and demeanor were very subdued
Gu Nanting rubbed his temples. He realized that taking over the company was indeed the right decision, but the development of other matters seemed to be quite different. For instance, the encounter with the troublemaker Cheng Xiao; for instance, the person who was supposed to be by his side since his assumption of office, but has been 'missing' until now—where is Qiao Qino?
Cheng Xiao: "... ... Then I might as well bow to him."
This man, exuding an elite aura, is simply handsome beyond compare! However, it is clearly not the time to admire handsome men, as Xia Zhi proactively said: "Sir, very..."
Cheng Xiao glanced at her and said: "What kind of look is that? It seems like it is not Fei Yao who is cheating, but me!"
Cheng Xiao's eyes were fixed on the laptop: "Isn't it just venting frustration from a car accident? Moreover, the person has already changed their heart; why force them to belittle themselves? Having already lost in love, should one also lose their self-respect?"
Cheng Xiao unintentionally continued, pulling Xia Zhi along as they left
As the condition of the injured Porsche remained unclear and it drove onto the street, Xia Zhi realized what she had missed, and she stared at Cheng Xiao.
Xiazhi considered himself to be a petty person, and even when both of them were ready to sleep at night, he still muttered: "An explanation and an apology are indeed meaningless now, but at least scolding him once would relieve my anger, right?"
She is quite capable of causing trouble, and Gu Nanting believes he is well aware of this, especially after experiencing it just yesterday. However, having his vehicle, which he had parked securely in a roadside parking space, damaged, he can only say: his heart can still bear it.
In today's increasingly competitive environment, achieving a 20% increase in performance is no easy task. If this cannot be accomplished, the candidate for the next general manager will no longer be him
Cheng Xiao did not respond immediately. It was not until the summer solstice that she thought she had fallen asleep, and then she said: "I will not kneel down for anyone for the sake of love"
