Tian Jiaojiao chose to answer truthfully, not daring to conceal anything; after all, Huang Yi was no ordinary person.
He was too smart, very shrewd.
"Oh, as long as the details match up, that’s fine. Lady Tang is going to start working at the company next week, and since you’ve been here for quite so ti already, I plan to..."
While he was talking, Huang Yi’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen and hurried to a distant spot to take the call.
At this mont, watching the man with his back turned to her, Tian Jiaojiao’s heart was a mix of emotions, suddenly overwheld by a very intense sense of crisis.
Oh my god, could he be about to fire ?
I knew it, once the project was over, there’s bound to be nothing good for ; I’m really just their temporary substitute.
It’s so infuriating, how can they do this?
But what if they really do fire , or intentionally make things difficult for ?
When Huang Yi finished the call and returned to Tian Jiaojiao’s side, she had already imagined countless reasons for being dismissed in her mind, and the perceptive Huang Yi also noticed sothing was off in Tian Jiaojiao’s expression.
He was the chairman’s senior assistant, after all.
The skill of reading people’s emotions had already been mastered when he was just an ordinary assistant.
"Tian Jiaojiao, are you overthinking it? Actually, the situation isn’t what you think," Huang Yi said firmly, with a kindly smile.
"Then... what does it an?"
Tian Jiaojiao bit her lower lip, and her right hand unconsciously clenched tighter.
She was really too afraid of losing her job.
"The chairman’s intention is, once Lady Tang officially starts work, to have you assist her in secret, considering she’s still a student and too naive. Also, you absolutely must not reveal... the relationship between Lady Tang and the chairman."
After hearing this, Tian Jiaojiao let out a sigh of relief, thinking she was going to be fired.
"Oh, that’s how it is, then I understand, Assistant Huang, rest assured, I will cooperate with Lady Tang," Tian Jiaojiao said earnestly, her gaze intense.
"Good, that’s settled then," Huang Yi nodded, continuing to advise, "Tian Jiaojiao, you’ve always perford well. Seize this opportunity; I believe Lady Tang won’t let you down in the future."
The unspoken implication was that Tang Xiaowan held a special status.
"Thank you for the tip, Assistant Huang, I’ll definitely work hard," Tian Jiaojiao replied with a smile, her doubts swept away.
"All’s well then, go back to your work."
"Alright, I’ll take my leave."
So, they both returned to their respective positions and began to get busy.
As Tian Jiaojiao was printing docunts, a realization suddenly struck her; she secretly made up her mind to seize this opportunity to perform well.
After all, Tang Xiaowan was the future chairman’s wife. Winning her favor assuredly ant boundless prospects.
"Hey, Jiaojiao!"
Suddenly a girl’s voice reached her ears, and she was gently patted.
Before she could speak, the girl whispered mysteriously, "I’ve got so good news, want to hear it? It’s definitely great!"
"I’ll treat you to a big al, spit it out."
"You’re being transferred to Chi Hai District next Monday, as a manager’s assistant, with administrative benefits, and your base salary will be raised a notch as well."
Tian Jiaojiao exclaid in surprise, "Chi Hai District?"
This was a clear case of being kicked upstairs!
It was tantamount to being directly transferred from headquarters to a subsidiary, with her imdiate boss changing from the chairman to a subsidiary manager.
It sounds nice, administrative assistant!
But this ant she was effectively distanced from the core area of Lingxiao Group, and the hope of getting back seed unlikely.
"Jiaojiao, what’s wrong? You’re about to get a pay raise... aren’t you happy?"
"Who did you hear this from, Assistant Huang?"
"No, Manager Feng. Didn’t we recently acquire a dical equipnt company? It’s located in Chi Hai District. I saw your na on the list and asked a bit more, hahaha."
The girl was Manager Feng Jiaming’s assistant; naturally, her information was reliable. Whether she inford out of goodwill or was taking perverse pleasure in mocking remained unknown.
But for now, she had to keep up appearances.
"Oh, that’s the case, thank you. Let’s have dinner together tonight," Tian Jiaojiao managed to muster a smile.
"Lucky you, getting promoted to administrative assistant."
After the girl finished speaking, she left.
Tian Jiaojiao picked up the printed docunts, her lips curling slightly, but the bitterness in her heart had long since turned into glistening tears.
The thing she feared the most still happened!
After a few seconds’ pause, she slightly lifted her head and carefully held back the tears.
ssing up her work makeup? Impossible!
Even if demoted, she had to do so with dignity.
Just at that mont, Tian Jiaojiao’s best friend sent a ssage about a get-together.
[Dear, let’s get together tonight. Lili and them heard you are working close to Leng Lingxiao and can’t stop envying you. They’re hell-bent on singing karaoke, and I can’t hold them off anymore, hahaha.]
She quickly read the ssage and replied that she had to work late, yet her face felt scorchingly hot.
She couldn’t bla her friend, only herself for not being assertive enough.
Just as she put away her phone, yet another ssage notification sounded.
[No way, no way! Have you climbed up the high branch and plan to leave the masses?]
She was just fine until she read that and imdiately got infuriated.
Tian Jiaojiao swiftly walked to the fire escape, seething with anger as she made the call.
