The evil stepmother is also doing her best for the motherland today.

Chapter 158 Memories disappear, but love does not

Although Xu Jingyi said it nonchalantly, in fact, after speaking, her hands subconsciously clenched into fists due to nervousness.

The few seconds of waiting felt particularly long for Xu Jingyi.

Gu Minzheng's lowered eyelids covered the emotions in his eyes, making Xu Jingyi unable to see through Gu Minzheng's thoughts at this moment.

"It's okay. You can refuse if you feel embarrassed." In the end, Xu Jingyi was the first to break the silence because she was afraid of hearing bad results.

When Gu Minzheng heard this, he raised his eyes to look at Xu Jingyi, but his eyes fell on Xu Jingyi's biting lower lip. The worries in his heart disappeared instantly: "Okay."

Xu Jingyi's eyes widened: "What?"

"I will try my best to cooperate with you."

"Okay." A smile broke out on Xu Jingyi's face. Gu Minzheng looked at the smile on Xu Jingyi's face, and the corners of his mouth naturally curved.

"Then I'll go back and make plans to see where to start, so I won't interrupt your work."

The atmosphere between the two people became less heavy. Gu Minzheng nodded when he heard Xu Jingyi's words: "I asked Zhou Zheng to see you off."

"Ah! No, I'm not going back. I have to go to work. I'm in the secretary's office. Didn't Zhou Zheng tell you?"

"I didn't say it." Gu Minzheng said decisively when faced with Xu Jingyi's inquiry and finally chose to let Zhou Zheng take the blame.

"Okay." Xu Jingyi just asked casually, not taking the question to heart, so she nodded, got up and walked out of the office.

Gu Minzheng's eyes followed Xu Jingyi until he left. He looked away at the closed office door and looked at the food box put aside. Xu Jingyi's plan echoed in his mind, and a feeling of anticipation rose in his heart.

Xu Jingyi returned to the secretary's office and received a lot of attention. She liked the working atmosphere in the secretary's office very much and felt that this was what the workers liked the most. There was no intrigue here at all. Everyone performed their duties and completed them well. If you understand, they won't dislike you and are very patient in leaving it to you, nor will they go out of their way to curry favor with you just because you have something to do with them.

With such a group of clear colleagues, she was glad that she had not resigned on impulse before because of Gu Minzheng.

After finishing the work at hand, she took out a pen and paper and began to list the things she planned to do with Gu Minzheng to restore his memory. Unexpectedly, she even wrote down an A4 paper without finishing it.

As she was writing, a familiar "beep" sound suddenly came from her mind.

"Task: Help Gu Minzheng recover his lost memory, reward 10000 points and 500 million."

"Host, this is to compensate for the injustice you have suffered. How about a task specially issued by the main system?"

Seeing that although the system was of little use, it had been actively fighting for her rights to help her, she decided not to attack it today.

"Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would be able to accumulate more points. I love you so much."

"The brain waves are all normal, the examination is completed."

"Tongzi, what do you mean?" Xu Jingyi asked angrily, listening to the voice in her head.

"That's right. Host, I just thought you were mentally disturbed by the male protagonist's amnesia. Here you go..." Sensing Xu Jingyi's increasing anger, the system automatically silenced the rest of the words.

"It's true that wild boars can't eat fine chaff. I thought I was praising you for your hard work, but you actually thought I was crazy and gave you shame."

"So host, that's what you meant."

"What else do I mean, am I out of my mind?" "I'm sorry, host."

"Forget it, why do I have to argue with you on the same system? Go and update yourself quickly. Goodbye."

With the systematic gags, time flies by, and there are only 5 minutes until the end of the day. People in the secretary office have already started to pack their things and plan to get off work.

Xu Jingyi looked at the plan in her hand, then turned to look in the direction of Gu Minzheng's office. She sighed and picked up her phone: "Do you want to go back to my old house with me to pick up the children tonight?"

When Gu Minzheng heard the WeChat notification tone on his phone, he had a hunch that the message was from Xu Jingyi, so he naturally picked up his phone to unlock it, and when he saw the message on WeChat, a smile appeared in his eyes.

"it is good."

"Then how long do you need? I'll tell Lao Zhai and let Auntie cook."

"Half an hour."

Xu Jingyi sent an OK emoticon and a work hard emoticon before logging out of WeChat.

She called Laozhai and told the two of them the time to arrive at Laozhai so that Laozhai could cook. After finishing her work and having nothing to do, she stared blankly in the direction of Gu Minzheng's office.

Half an hour later, the WeChat alert on her phone rang. Xu Jingyi came back to her senses, looked at the message Gu Minzheng sent her, and got up to pack her things.

When Xu Jingyi packed her things and walked out of the secretary's office with her bag, she happened to bump into Zhou Zheng and Gu Minzheng walking towards them. Zhou Zheng was still reporting to Gu Minzheng, and when he saw Xu Jingyi, he paused and said hello.

"Come here first, then compile a file and send it to me."

"Okay, Mr. Gu."

The three of them entered the elevator. Xu Jingyi and Gu Minzheng stood side by side in the elevator. Xu Jingyi secretly glanced at the man next to her. She wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say. She always felt a little awkward, but she didn't want the atmosphere in the elevator to be so depressing, so She chose to talk to Zhou Zheng.

Zhou Zheng naturally would not let his words fall to the ground. The back-and-forth between the two made Gu Minzheng look like an outsider. Gu Minzheng did not expect that he would have such thoughts. He frowned slightly, feeling as if he was stuffed in his heart. A ball of cotton.

The two people who were chatting suddenly felt a blast of cold air coming from the elevator, and they looked up at the air outlet at the top of the elevator.

Zhou Zheng was still thinking about calling the maintenance department when he went back later and asking them to check if there was any problem with the elevator and deal with it as soon as possible.

After getting out of the elevator, Zhou Zheng stopped following the two of them. He said goodbye to them and walked in the direction of his car, which was exactly the opposite of the two of them.

Sitting in the car, half of Gu Minzheng's face was hidden in the darkness, and he was sleeping with his eyes closed.

Xu Jingyi glanced at Gu Minzheng secretly. She wondered if it was her imagination. She felt that this person seemed to be in a bad mood when he came out of the elevator. Was it because of work?If Xu Jingyi had asked before, but now it felt like there was a layer between the two of them, Xu Jingyi thought it was better not to ask.

Xu Jingyi was a little bored when the car was so quiet, and then she turned to look at the scenery outside the car.

She tilted her head, but she didn't know that at the moment she turned her head, Gu Minzheng opened his eyes and glanced at her.

In this way, the two of them returned to the old house in silence. As soon as they arrived at the old house, the children heard the noise and ran out.

"Dad, Auntie, why did it take you so long to come see me?" Gu Mo rushed to the two of them and said angrily to them.
