Chapter 29

"Hey! Old Gu, are you serious?" Who has ever heard of a secret half-told and then left untold, the suspense won’t even let people sleep.

"The hospital visiting hours are almost over." Having said this, Gu Junxing lay down. Whether it was about his first love or not, he had no intention of speaking.

Everyone was left cursing Gu Junxing in their hearts. They had no choice but to leave since there was really nothing they could do. The time was indeed late, it would not be good if they had to wait for the nurse to expel them.

Gu Junxing’s tight lips left Nian Suian in a state of both laughter and tears. After sending the three out of the ward, she quickly came back and stared at Gu Junxing.

"You have a pretty tight lip..."

Seeing Nian Suian\'s frustrated expression, Gu Junxing found it amusing. He could not help teasing her, "So, you really want to know?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Nian Suian leaned over and nodded vehemently. It was unthinkable to hear a gossip but not the truth; it was like smelling the delicious food but not being able to eat it.

"My first love is.."

At that, Gu Junxing purposely stopped.

"Who is it?"

"... I won’t tell you."

"Gu Junxing!" Realizing she had been played, Nian Suian was very angry, "You\'re making fun of me?!"

"Is there anything wrong with me not wanting to share my personal things? It\'s you who are too curious."

With one sentence, Nian Suian fell silent. Even though she was angry, she did not know how to retort, and could only pout in annoyance. Gu Junxing found her reaction very amusing; he seemed to have found a new hobby...teasing Nian Suian.

Having been in the hospital for a week, Gu Junxing was finally being discharged. During this time, Gu Junxing’s assistant had visited the hospital several times bringing important documents for Gu Junxing to sign personally, and also on behalf of the company’s employees to visit their boss.

Gu Junxing was always worried about the situation within his company, but every time the assistant visited, he insisted everything was fine, they had even secured several new projects.

Nian Suian had never seen anyone so naturally restless, she said to Gu Junxing, "Look, even without you, the company is doing fine, why don\'t you just take a rest?"

Gu Junxing had a different idea, "To act according to one\'s position, that\'s my responsibility."

"Being in the office every day isn\'t your responsibility, the company making a profit so that everyone can earn money is what you\'re responsible for. If you feel embarrassed, why not just give everyone a bonus next month?”

“What, I have to give employees a bonus because I was hospitalized?”

They both had different views. Although Nian Suian had now changed her status, she still had the mindset of an office employee in her bones. Gu Junxing was different; he started a business right after graduation and had never been an employee. Needless to say, he saw things from a boss’s perspective.

"I\'m not saying you have to give out a bonus, it’s your company, you decide." Afraid that Gu Junxing would think she was trying to manipulate him morally, Nian Suian waved her hand to indicate that it had nothing to do with her and that he should make the decision on his own.

Gu Junxing pondered for a moment, then made a phone call in front of Nian Suian to his personal assistant.

"Xiao Li, I haven\'t been at the company for a while now, and you\'ve worked hard. Here\'s what we\'ll do. Notify the finance department, each employee at the head office will get a thousand yuan this month. And all department heads, including you, will receive five thousand each. The bonus will come from my personal account, consider it a personal welfare from me." After finishing, he glanced at Nian Suian, "It\'s your boss who urged me to do this. She said you all deserved a bonus." Since he had been away, the managers at the company had indeed been under more strain. They had also landed a new project, so this money could be considered as a reward. Even though five thousand was not a lot, it was at least a show of goodwill.

She mentioned the idea of a bonus offhand, and she was surprised that Gu Junxing really followed through. Even if it were just a thousand per person, it added up to a considerable amount.

Of course, Nian Suian did not mind, after all, it was not her money. She was just astounded that there existed capitalists who didn’t pinch every penny?!

"How many employees do you have at your company? Do you think I can join too?" she asked.

"Don\'t worry, I haven\'t forgotten about you either," Gu Junxing responded, picking up his phone and transferring fifty thousand yuan into Nian Suian\'s account.

"You got more than anyone else, are you happy now?"

"Tickled pink." Talking about money made her feel like she was getting visited by the god of wealth. To her, Gu Junxing appeared even more charismatic every time he showed his generosity.

She even went up to Gu Junxing to straighten out the non-existent wrinkles on his suit, acting excessively obsequious.

"Why do you always insist on wearing suits, even after being discharged? Doesn\'t it tire you out?" He was discharged from the hospital today, and the moment he took off his hospital gown, he dressed in a suit. Although suits looked good, wearing them every day seemed excessive. One would think he was always rushing off to work.

"I have no other clothes besides these," Gu Junxing replied as he meticulously adjusted his tie. It was undeniable that the suit was the best outfit a man could wear. Gu Junxing, with his broad shoulders and narrow waist, his tall stature and long legs, looked remarkably good in suits. As Nian Suian sneaked glances at him while he was adjusting his tie, she subconsciously scratched under her nose. Damn the old man... since when was adjusting a tie sexy?

Upon hearing that he had no other clothes, Nian Suian blurted out, "I can buy some for you."

Of course, she regretted saying that the moment the words left her mouth. Buying clothes for him felt somewhat intimate. Just as Nian Suian was contemplating whether to clarify that she was joking, Gu Junxing spoke, "Then I thank you." He then took out a black card from his wallet, "This card is for shopping. Feel free to buy something for yourself too. Clothes, cosmetics, whatever you want. And for Zhi Jing... Never mind. I will give him money to buy what he wants online himself."

"Thanks, boss!" Nian Suian was thrilled. The legendary black card! What were the previous uncertainties when one had the black card to shop till they drop? It felt as though she had unlimited gold coins and diamonds to play \'Love Nikki\'. How exhilarating!

"Maybe I should buy some clothes for Gu Zhijing as well; his sense of style is a bit lacking. He dresses like a nerdy chap." Nian Suian had loathed Gu Zhijing\'s taste in clothes for a long time. She initially thought someone else at home chooses for him. Only after asking did she realize it was his own choice! They were so ugly; in her opinion, men\'s skinny jeans should be banned worldwide.

Hearing Nian Suian comment on this, Gu Junxing reflected on their son’s outfits and chuckled in agreement. "If it\'s not too much of a hassle for you, you can buy some for him too."

"Not at all, who finds shopping for clothes bothersome! I love shopping, especially when I am not spending my money,” Nian Suian chuckled and then asked, "Is there a budget?"

"No budget, as long as you’re not going to buy the entire shopping center."

"Boss Gu!"

"Yes?"

"Have I ever told you how handsome you are?"

"Hmm... I don’t think so."

"Then, let me tell you now! You are so handsome, the handsomest of all, the number one handsome man in Jinjiang City!"
