Chapter 341 - 161: Taking Down Jiang Ruxue in Another Way_3

Gu Heng did not insist and behaved as if a superior cared for an employee, asking in a gentle voice, "How have you been feeling at the company these past few days? Are you used to it yet?"

Although Jiang Ruxue didn’t know what Gu Heng really had in mind, she honestly nodded and said, "The atmosphere in the company is very good, and I have learned quite a bit following Director Shu."

Seeing her seemingly satisfied demeanor, Gu Heng couldn’t help but laugh and said, "So you plan to be my intern secretary for three months and then go abroad as an exchange student for a year?"

Jiang Ruxue didn’t understand what Gu Heng meant, and frowned slightly, "Mr. Gu, if you have something to say, please say it directly."

Shrugging his shoulders, Gu Heng leaned back in his executive chair, interlaced his fingers over his stomach, and propped one foot onto the desk, speaking again in a lazy tone, "You know, I’ve recently been setting up the chairman’s office, and as for how much power the chairman’s office holds in our company, I believe you’re aware. After all, in the future, if the company forms a board of directors, the director of the chairman’s office will hold a board seat."

Jiang Ruxue frowned tightly and without speaking, just stared at Gu Heng, waiting for what he would say next.

"Would you be interested in becoming the first secretary of the chairman’s office at IDE Capital? I’m not talking about an internship agreement but an employment contract."

If the company is likened to a court...

Then the chairman’s office is equivalent to the cabinet...

And the office secretary is akin to an elder statesman...

Although it’s administratively a low-ranking position, the power is tremendously large...

It’s also a position that can truly forge one’s abilities...

For a moment, Jiang Ruxue was indeed tempted...

But after a brief thought, she still shook her head and declined, "I’m sorry Mr. Gu, I need to go to the United States as an exchange student next year, and after finishing my undergraduate studies, I plan to pursue further master’s and doctoral degrees. Not only does my schedule not allow me to take up this position, my abilities do not permit it either."

Gu Heng was not surprised by Jiang Ruxue’s refusal, but he believed that the words he was about to say would most likely change her mind...

"An exchange student? Master’s? Ph.D.?

There must be a catch in such abnormal generosity...

Jiang Ruxue was no simpleton and clearly knew Gu Heng must be plotting something. She then asked with a frown, "Mr. Gu, why would you offer me such favorable treatment? I don’t consider myself an investment of such high value."

Gu Heng smiled upon hearing this, removed his foot from the desk, stood up and stretched, "Don’t overthink it, I just see potential in you, as for the investment value you mentioned...

How much could it possibly be? At most a million or two...

But if you truly possess the capability, I believe the benefits you return to me would be a hundred or a thousand-fold."

"I won’t say much more. The chairman’s office will be set up in these coming days. I’m giving you three days to think it over. If you decide, just report directly to Director Shu, I’ll mention it to her in advance."

Saying this, Gu Heng no longer paid her any attention and continued playing Plants vs. Zombies...

Jiang Ruxue stood in front of Gu Heng’s desk for half a minute, then quietly walked out of the office...

Gu Heng’s gaze lingered on Jiang Ruxue’s retreating figure, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curling up...

Jiang Ruxue, this kind of woman, to put it nicely, is proud; to put it bluntly, is arrogant...

For such women, the gold-digger tactics of directly using money doesn’t work...

But...

Gu Heng could use another approach...

That was to help her realize her self-worth...

In reality, it wasn’t much different from using money...

The only difference was that it was a bit more troublesome...

But once Gu Heng helped her achieve self-worth, and she felt all this was bestowed by Gu Heng, she would be even more devoted than a gold-digger...
