Boss Mo’s Predestined Love Brought by Surrogacy

“Follow me.”

Gu Yan saw that there were more and more people in the office. She knew that if she continued to stay in the office with Gu Manman, it would arouse everyone’s suspicions. Instead of being the center of the topic and watching others talk about her, she’d better avoid these people and go to the place where she could not see them, thereby keeping herself from hearing their discussions about her.

Gu Manman nodded and followed Gu Yan into her office. Gu Manman was puzzled at why she always seemed to be suppressed in front of Gu Yan, while she had the character of fearing nothing.

“Give it to me.”

After Gu Yan entered the office, she put down her stuff and sat down in her office chair. She waved her hand, indicating for Gu Manman to sit down. Gu Manman was a bit nervous in front of her, and Gu Yan could feel it. She wondered in her mind, “Do I look so scary?”

Although Gu Manman was a very thoughtful person and Gu Yan knew that she had many creative ideas, many of her previous actions did not leave a good impression in Gu Yan’s heart. As such, Gu Yan did not have high hopes for the design proposal that Gu Manman would hand over today.

However, Gu Yan was not worried because Jiang Jingcheng had already come up with another design proposal for Gu Manman, so even if Gu Manman’s did not work, Gu Yan had already got a backup plan.

But she kept those feelings inside, because she knew that although Gu Manman might not be familiar with the design work now, she had many ideas, and it was very likely that she would have some achievements in the field of design in the future. Gu Yan would not easily murder a person’s enthusiasm for design.

Furthermore, Gu Manman was Qi Changfeng’s cousin. Since Gu Yan had promised Qi Changfeng to help guide Gu Manman, she would do it to the end. That could count as returning a favor to him.

Gu Yan was originally not hopeful about Gu Manman’s design work, but when she flipped through it, she became more and more focused. Compared to the design work that appeared messy a few days ago, this one was much better. Gu Yan’s eyes could not help but light up with surprise. She had to admit that she was very satisfied with Gu Manman’s design proposal, which had now been modified.

In the beginning, Gu Yan seemed to be a bit unconcerned, and Gu Manman could tell it from her eyes. Gu Manman could not help feeling nervous. If Gu Yan was prejudiced against her work at the beginning, would she still be able to judge it objectively?

However, Gu Manman did not miss the light in Gu Yan’s eyes. “What… does it mean? Does she approve of my work?” Gu Manman was a little happy in her heart, but she did not relax her guard. Everything could only be settled after Gu Yan gave her the final answer.

Currently, Gu Manman was still wary and did not dare to let herself relax in the slightest. She was afraid that if she made a bad move, Gu Yan’s opinion of her work would change.

Gu Manman was very nervous as if she was waiting for a verdict. Although she was sitting, she clenched her fists tightly, and she felt like sweating inside. Her heart kept pounding. She felt as if a century had passed as Gu Yan looked at her work.

Gu Yan did not speak for a long time, reading the document in her hand over and over again, which did not contain too little nor too much content.

Outside her office, another person was feeling greatly anxious, who was no one else but Jiang Jingcheng. He knew very well that today was the deadline that Gu Yan gave Gu Manman, and he had already assumed that Gu Manman would fail. He did not believe that she could make something that matched Gu Yan’s standards.

He was not even sure if Gu Yan would be satisfied with his design. To achieve perfection, he had not slept the entire night. He knew Gu Yan too well, who was so strict with her work that even he was afraid of her working attitude. But now that things had developed to this point, he didn’t know what else he could do.

In any case, in his heart, there was no way for them to put Gu Manman’s design work to use. Although the design work he had made hastily might not be exquisite enough, it was better than what Gu Manman had presented him before. If Gu Yan could modify his work with him, it should be able to fit their clients’ needs.

He didn’t know why Gu Yan would suddenly want to give this opportunity to Gu Manman. The entire studio was talking about this matter. As a man, Jiang Jingcheng had already heard the gossip. He didn’t believe that Gu Yan wouldn’t know what people were discussing, but what was her intention in doing this?

He had rarely objected to her decisions. However, this time around, she had handed over the design to Gu Manman. Jiang Jingcheng had been truly unwilling to do so, but Gu Yan still insisted on it. Although he could not understand many of the things that she had done in the past, it was later proven that she had made the correct choices.

However, this did not mean that her decisions would always be correct. Jiang Jingcheng did not think that it was wise to hand over such an important project to Gu Manman. However, Gu Yan had already made up her mind and she would not listen to his objection. Now, it was time for the final judgment.

Jiang Jingcheng did not know what decision Gu Yan would make in the end. Although he was very clear in his heart that Gu Manman would not come up with a design work that could satisfy Gu Yan, he still felt a little expectant in his heart inexplicably.

He hoped that Gu Manman would be lucky enough to have a blind coincidence and that the design she came up with would just happen to suit Gu Yan’s taste. Although he also knew that this possibility was very slim, he inexplicably hoped for it to happen.

“Well done, really well done.”

After a long silence, Gu Yan finally closed Gu Manman’s design proposal document and praised her. She emphasized that Gu Manman’s work was excellent twice. Gu Manman finally got relaxed from her nervous tension. This feeling was like her heart had been sinking, sinking to the bottom, but now it suddenly bounced back.

For a moment, she couldn’t even express her feelings with words. Everything seemed to have happened all of a sudden. It was so unreal that it made her feel like she was dreaming.

But now, she could be sure that her efforts were not in vain during this period when she forgot to sleep or eat for the sake of this design proposal. Her efforts had finally won Gu Yan’s approval. Gu Manman slowly came to her senses, and then she became happy. Gu Yan did not tell Gu Manman to leave right away, which meant that she had other words to say.

“But…”
