Chapter 1108: 1108
One could make do in one’s daily life, but sometimes, one should not make do in living .

There were no limits to living .
Thus, one actually should not settle in life .
However, Gu Jingze was not this kind of man . He was the kind of person who made sure that the minor gestures were made first before he went on to the major actions .
Thus, he always put in his best effort .
Lin Che looked at him and wondered how she ever deserved his efforts . However, she still enjoyed it very much .
As Lin Che ate, she said, “Actually, the food at home would probably suit your taste bud more . This is a little different . ”
Gu Jingze replied, “Secretary Lan prepared it . The company’s chefs probably did it . Their food tends to be healthier . ”
“Yeah, they probably wouldn’t use charcoal like this . ”
“That’s right . It’s unhygienic and Secretary Lan is more careful . She wouldn’t do that . ”
When he mentioned Secretary Lan, Lin Che asked, “Has Secretary Lan worked for you for a long time?”
“Well, yes . It’s been a few years . ” He couldn’t remember exactly how many years it was . He only knew that when they started the branch here, she was already around .
Lin Che said, “It looks like she is probably very capable . Otherwise, how could a strict person like you keep her around for so long? It’s just like Qin Hao . He is meticulous and that is why he can stay by your side . She’s probably not that different from Qin Hao, right?”
“Yeah . Actually, in terms of abilities, she’s on par with Qin Hao . It’s just that she’s a woman . ”

It was not that Gu Jingze discriminated against women . It was because of his allergy to women that left him with no choice .
He could not have any woman around him .
Thus, no matter how good Secretary Lan was, she would still be stationed in S City . She was able to work with him for so long and never dismissed was also because she was always in S City . She was not close to him physically .
Otherwise, except a few female secretaries who do not come in physical contact with Gu Jingze, everyone else was a man .
Lin Che said, “It’s really impressive for a woman to get to where she is now . ”
She was not discriminating against women either . It was because men sometimes had certain advantages that would make them more successful . Women had their own advantages in other areas, so they were more successful in those areas . When it came to a career, women had a natural obstacle that was not easy to overcome . By overthinking things, matters would become more troublesome . Men could easily tackle issues as they were so that matters could be easily solved .

This couldn’t be helped . The majority of the women had a more delicate sensuality than men .
Lin Che spoke and Gu Jingze nodded . “That’s right, but she did slip up this time . ”
He also planned to talk to the kitchen later and dismiss a few chefs as punishment .
The high salary in the Gu Industries also meant that the stakes were higher . The risk was that if you were not qualified enough, you could easily be replaced by someone else . Everything had its own advantages and disadvantages . This was true everywhere .
In the past, the Gu family’s chefs were already very impressive to be able to stay until now . They were not just impressive in their skills but were also able to satisfy the family’s needs in every aspect . They clearly knew what Gu Jingze wanted and what Lin Che wanted . Just one word and they would deliver .
However, the chefs here were clearly not up to standard .

That was because he never bothered to get personal them in the past, either . Now that he thought about it, the chefs always fulfilled his requirements when it was usually just him alone . They never asked about anyone else . Thus, he never said anything . Now that Lin Che was here, they still continued to only focus on his requirements . This was naturally not good .
He had already taken this matter to heart, and he was not anxious for the time being .
Lin Che continued, “She’s been working in the Gu Industries for so long, so she must be rather mature . But I really can’t tell what exactly is her age . It’s so busy at work . Does she have kids? Does she have a family?”
“…” Gu Jingze did not know .
He never cared about personal matters .
“Well, maybe… I guess not,” he said .
“What? She’s worked for you for eight years . Shouldn’t you think about how she feels?” Lin Che knew that Qin Hao already wanted to start a family .
He wanted to, but he had not .
Because he was too busy, he had blown off a few relationships . His current girlfriend was his secretary . As they worked together all the time, they often saw each other even though they had no time to date . They ended up together and Gu Jingze became the matchmaker . He gave a huge bonus to the two of them as they were getting ready to marry after the new year .
Working in Gu Industries was too sad .
Lin Che said, “Don’t chain people down all the time . You have to think about their personal lives . ”
Gu Jingze said, “I don’t think she has taken a day off before . She never took marriage leave or maternity leave, so she probably doesn’t have a family . ”
Lin Che shook her head . “Oh my, you’re such an exploiter . ”

Gu Jingze said, “She never asked before . How would I know?”
“Perhaps it’s because competition and stress in the Gu Industries are too great, so she doesn’t dare to take a day off . ”
Gu Jingze said, “Only with the competition will there be progression . This is a good competition, but they had to turn it malicious . I can’t possibly babysit every single employee . ”
That was true too .
Lin Che cocked her head to the side and said, “It looks like there really is a price to pay to get a good job . ”
Gu Jingze said, “You’re lucky that you met me first . Otherwise, you probably wouldn’t be able to take a break or get married since you’re so busy now . ”
Lin Che shrugged .
After they finished eating, they headed back . Gu Jingze continued working in the afternoon .
When he was less busy, he then saw Secretary Lan at the side and was reminded of Lin Che’s words . He asked, “Secretary Lan, are you married?”
Secretary Lan was silent .
Gu Jingze actually asked about her personal life .
Gu Jingze had never asked about these things .
At that moment, her heart palpitated crazily and she almost lost control .
“I…, I am not . ”
Gu Jingze nodded and said, “If you need to take a break to date or get married, you can tell me . ”
Secretary Lan quickly said, “No . I’m not looking for a relationship at the moment . ”
“It’s also part of life . You’ve been working so hard at Gu Industries and I don’t want you forsaking other aspects of your life . Our company is not that demanding,” Gu Jingze spoke as he massaged his temples .
Secretary Lan was extremely touched .
She gazed at Gu Jingze’s side profile . His fatigue made her want to heal him . Even in his most tired state, he was filled with sharpness . This made people feel that he was so distinctly smart . He was so cold with not a hint of softness . This was a true man .
Secretary Lan blushed . “There’s no need to . I think my life is fine right now . Being with President Gu is much, much better than getting married . I’m willing to always be with President Gu… working diligently . ”
Just then, Lin Che came in .
She opened the door and saw Secretary Lan at the side .
Gu Jingze did not lift his head up . He sat in his chair as he closed his eyes to rest .
Thus, he naturally did not see the bashful look on Secretary Lan’s face .
