Addicted to Love, Mr. Fu’s Newly Married Wife

Chapter 1164 Take care of yourself

Chen Xia was shocked to learn from Lin Nuo that the time span for this trip to Africa to work would be as short as three years, and as long as ten years!

"What?" After hearing the news, Chen Xia jumped up from her seat as if she had been electrocuted, her body trembling slightly due to excessive surprise.

Her high-pitched scream echoed throughout the office, as sudden and loud as thunder from a clear sky.

This sudden change caused her colleagues who were busy working around her to stop what they were doing. They stared at her in amazement, their faces full of shock and confusion.

Facing everyone's surprised looks and whispers, Chen Xia was completely unaware.

At this moment, the only thing in her mind was that incredible number - ten years!

"What are you doing? Chen Xia, you're so startled." At this time, Lin Nuo on the side frowned, with obvious dissatisfaction in his eyes.

He was somewhat displeased with Chen Xia's exaggerated reaction, and thought that her behavior would affect the working atmosphere of others.

However, at this moment, Chen Xia had no time to care about Lin Nuo's accusations, her mind was only occupied by the long time of separation.

Doesn't that mean there's absolutely no chance for her to come back?

Chen Xia's face turned pale in an instant. She stared at Lin Nuo in disbelief, as if she had heard something extremely absurd.

"No, Assistant Lin, it's not appropriate for a woman like me to go there!"

There was obvious panic and uneasiness in her voice, and her colleagues around her cast curious glances at her.

Lin Nuo frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Chen Xia's reaction.

"What's inappropriate about it? Su Rou also went to South Africa alone before!" There was a hint of impatience in his words, as if he was blaming Chen Xia for being too pretentious.

Chen Xia felt mixed emotions when she heard this.

She knew that Su Rou was indeed a capable woman and had once traveled to South Africa alone to handle company affairs.

However, that does not mean that she can cope with the harsh environment and complex situation in Africa as easily as Su Rou.

What's more, the duration of this trip to Africa is unknown, the shortest is three years, and the longest may even be ten years. In that case, wouldn't Xu Xiaoxiao have a chance to reconcile with the chairman?

"Assistant Lin, I..."

Chen Xia opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say. She knew in her heart that the decision to go to Africa was a done deal, and no matter how she resisted, she couldn't change this fact.

However, she was really unwilling to be assigned to a place that she was completely unfamiliar with and did not want to go to.

Lin Nuo looked at Chen Xia's conflicted expression and couldn't help feeling annoyed.

She felt that Chen Xia was too pretentious and always made things too complicated.

In her opinion, although going to Africa is a bit hard, it is also a rare opportunity to train herself and make greater contributions to the company.

"Chen Xia, don't hesitate any longer! This trip to Africa is a decision made by the company's top management after careful consideration. It is also an important opportunity in your career development. With such a rare opportunity before you, you should seize it firmly instead of complaining and resisting like you are now." Lin Nuo's words revealed a solemn and unquestionable aura, as if an insurmountable wall stood in front of Chen Xia.

Hearing this, Chen Xia's heart was filled with an indescribable pain. She lowered her head, twisted her hands unconsciously, and her lips trembled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't utter a single word.

Seeing that Chen Xia remained silent, Lin Nuo paused for a moment and then added:

"Besides, this is actually a way for Mr. Fu to test the ability of his employees. As long as you can handle the affairs in Africa properly and neatly, Mr. Fu will definitely not treat you unfairly when you return in the future. By then, he will definitely give you a position in the branch management as a reward."

However, in the face of Lin Nuo's earnest words, Chen Xia just shook her head gently, with a trace of confusion and unwillingness in her eyes.

She stammered, "But... I..." Her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible. Because only she knew in her heart that what she really wanted was not the management rights of the branch company, but the high position of Mrs. Fu!

How could Lin Nuo not know what she was thinking? He sneered, "Chen Xia, you should be glad that you offended Mr. Fu now. If it was before, you would have been banned by the entire industry."

Chen Xia's eyes flashed, "What do you mean? I didn't do anything wrong?"

"Really? Then why did you go to see your wife privately and say something you shouldn't have said?"
