Zhao Youlin stared at the surprised Xia Zhetao in front of the elevator, and her eyebrows scrunched up. Feeling speechless, she said, “Shouldn’t I be asking you that question? Why are you here?”
Xia Zhetao was stunned. Then, he realized that he was currently in Zhao Enterprise. He laughed dryly and said, “Ahahaha, it’s because I simply ran into you, former—Ahem, I mean that I suddenly met you, Ms. Zhao, and I was too surprised. We came to talk about a business cooperation with you, but we didn’t expect to run into you the moment we entered the company. What a coincidence!”
‘Coincidence, my foot! Why didn’t you go take the guest elevator and insist on coming into the elevator in the corner and squeeze inside with me?! That’s not a coincidence! It’s a misfortune, you hear me, MISFORTUNE!’
Zhao Youlin might be making sarcastic quips left and right in her heart, but she seized the point in Xia Zhetao’s words. Did both of them come here to talk about the suburbs?
That day, Zhao Youlin had summoned her courage to have Xiao Jingyao call Mu Tingfeng, but to her surprise, she soon heard that Mu Tingfeng had gone on a business trip.
Zhao Youlin let out a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she wondered whether it was because Mu Tingfeng no longer wanted anything to do with her and looked for this excuse. After all, they hated each other whenever they saw each other in the past, so this was entirely possible.
Later on, due to some trivial matters in the company and the old madam’s death anniversary, Zhao Youlin soon became very busy, and she set aside this matter. She did not expect one week to have gone over this quietly and rapidly because of it.
The moment Xia Zhetao mentioned this, Zhao Youlin remembered that Xiao Jingyao seemed to have told her that Mu Tingfeng came back from his business trip this morning, and he may soon come over in the afternoon to talk about the land. However, due to the chaos Zhao Yifei caused in the morning, she already forgot about it.
Zhao Youlin discreetly cast a glance at Mu Tingfeng, who was behind Xia Zhetao. She felt a little surprised.
Even if Mu Tingfeng did not outrightly reject her, he would send a subordinate of his to come and negotiate with her. She did not expect Mu Tingfeng to come over personally.
Zhao Youlin frowned. She wondered whether this guy had decided to use the chance to make things hard for you so that she would be humiliated.
Xia Zhetao noticed that Zhao Youlin had not said anything for a long time after he finished speaking, so he frowned and looked at the person behind him with a terrified expression.
His heart trembled, and he felt that something was not right. Just when he wanted to say something, the door started closing slowly again.
Xia Zhetao was shocked, and he quickly reached out to block the door again.
The sound of the shutting door dragged Zhao Youlin’s mind back to the present. Her lips twitched, and in a shocked and resigned tone, she said, “You’ll either come in, or you leave. Why are you blocking the door? Do you want to be the guardian god of my elevator?”
When Xia Zhetao was suddenly attacked by Zhao Youlin’s sudden vicious words, he widened his eyes and became as still as a statue.
At that moment, Mu Tingfeng, who had been standing behind him and felt a little lost when he suddenly met Zhao Youlin again, suddenly moved his feet and walked into the elevator.
Xia Zhetao felt a cold gust of wind blow past him, and it was so cold that he trembled. He instantly snapped out of his daze and instinctively looked in the direction where the cold wind came from.
To his surprise, when he looked up, he saw his superior’s dark eyes. Through his eyes, Xia Zhetao could practically see a fierce warning. ‘If you dare come in and be a third wheel, I WILL kill you!’
If the president was so fierce, he could make countless third wheels burst.
Xia Zhetao’s expression froze and he quietly pulled back the leg that had moved into the elevator.
Zhao Youlin was puzzled when she saw this, and she asked, “Aren’t you coming in?” His superior was already inside, so if he stayed outside, he would be a really unprofessional secretary.
If Xia Zhetao knew what Zhao Youlin was thinking at the moment, he would definitely cry out that he had been wronged. It was not that he did not want to go out, he could not!
If his left foot stepped into the elevator and destroyed the world between the president and the former Mrs. President, which was hard to come by as it was, then his right foot might be brutally cut into pieces and thrown into the river to feed the fish.
“Ahahaha, I think the elevator would be overloaded if I go inside. I think I’ll wait for the next elevator.”
Overloaded? Zhao Youlin discreetly looked at her private elevator. If she remembered correctly, this elevator could carry at least ten people, right? Right now, there were only two people standing inside, and he was telling her that the elevator was overloaded? He had to be joking!
Once he saw Zhao Youlin’s derisive stare, Xia Zhetao felt cold sweat break on his forehead. He said in a panic, “I suddenly remembered that I left an important document in the car. Well, President, Ms. Zhao, please go up first, I’ll join you soon. Really soon.” Before Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng could react, he turned tail and ran.
As Xia Zhetao ran away, the door was no longer blocked, and it could close up once more. With a loud whir, it started heading up.
Zhao Youlin found herself speechless.
Xia Zhetao was finally able to escape a disaster. After running for a while, he made sure that Zhao Youlin was no longer at him, and he stopped.
He decided to praise himself for his cunning. He heard a heated discussion from a spot not far away.
“Did you hear? This morning, that vice division manager went to the new general manager’s office to molest her.”
“What? He ran into the general manager’s office to molest the general manager? Where did the vice division manager get those guts?”
Xia Zhetao had originally wanted to catch his breath before he looked for another elevator and go to Zhao Youlin’s office floor to wait for them, but there were only a few personal secretaries slash assistants who were so meticulous in taking care of their superiors that they knew how to give their superiors countless space to flirt with the girl of their dreams during crucial moments.
As he lamented his fate, he wondered when he could have the president increase his salary. But when he heard those words, he came to a screeching halt and whipped his head around to look at the two talking girls.
The new general manager? Wasn’t the new general manager in Zhao Enterprise the former Mrs. President? Someone actually molested the former Mrs. President? Who would have the guts to do so? Did they want to die?!
Another girl heard the two girls’ discussion and asked curiously, “Vice division manager? Which vice division manager are you talking about?”
“Who else? There’s only one person in the development department who keeps on thinking about molesting girls.”
“That’s right. He looks good, but all he knows is to flirt with girls in the office all day long. This time, his lust took over his brain, and he even decided to flirt with the general manager.”
“Then, what happened to the general manager? Did the vice division manager do anything to her…?”
“Hahaha! He actually didn’t. I heard that in the morning, the vice division manager was stretchered into the ambulance from the general manager’s office. I think he was injured quite badly.”
“Wasn’t the vice division manager discharged recently? He’s admitted again?”
“Hahaha! That’s why I said that it’s karma. I’ll say, it’ll be best if he stays in the hospital for a few days instead of coming out to bother people. The girls in the office are all worried because of him.”
“That’s right, but there’s something you don’t know, right? I heard that when the vice division manager was carried out, he was already unconscious, but his hand was covering… that place.”
“Where?”
“Ah, it’s that place! I heard from the people who were in the office at that time that the general manager managed to kick him. Say, do you think that the vice division manager will never be able to… do that again?”
“Pfft… hahahaha!”
