Chapter 621: Chapter 621: Go Ho Early
“Fine, but you’ll have to help steal the marriage certificate first,” Xu Chaomu said mysteriously.
“Oh, then forget it, I can’t do that.”
Xu Chaomu was eating grapes. In fact, since her return to the country, she had only seen her marriage certificate with Shen Chi once, and then she never saw it again.
Whether it was real or fake, she still didn’t know.
“Weiwei, the temperature is so nice tonight, let’s go shopping.”
“You’re pregnant, just stay put. I’ll peel grapes for you, I’ll cut waterlon for you.”
“I’ve been staying at your place for a few days, and I’ve gained quite a lot of weight.”
“If you had lost weight, I’d be worried about my own survival,” Yu Weiwei muttered, “Speaking of which, you’ve been at my place for three days now. How co that beast hasn’t co to pick you up?”
“Heh,” Xu Chaomu laughed without humor.
“…” Yu Weiwei cast her a contemptuous glance.
Indeed, by the fourth day, Shen Chi still hadn’t given her a call.
He didn’t call her, nor was she in the mood to call him.
Just that, she didn’t expect that the little rascal would summon her to the office.
In the morning, she was earnestly drawing a design on paper. Everyone in the design departnt was working diligently, and she especially so.
As her belly grew, she started to sleep less well. She woke up early and arrived at Shen Group early, too.
As soon as she arrived at the departnt, she engaged in her work diligently.
Just as she was intently sketching out a sample, the supervisor knocked on her desk.
“Xiaoxu, take the drawings and co with .”
Xu Chaomu looked puzzled, but obediently she carried the drawings and followed the supervisor out of the design departnt.
“Xiaoxu, do you know where the president’s office is? Go up there and hand the drawings to President Shen,” the supervisor said with a nonchalant look on his face.
It was obvious, President Shen had taken a fancy to this young lady. Otherwise, why would a president personally want to see an employee whose probation period was not yet over?
“I’ve just started drawing…” Xu Chaomu explained.
“Take it up there anyway.”
“Can I not go?” Xu Chaomu asked, anxious and uneasy.
What was that proud and arrogant man up to?
“If you want to be fired, then don’t go!” the supervisor warned her.
“Oh.”
Xu Chaomu hung her head and reluctantly rolled up the drawings to take the elevator.
She grumbled to herself as she walked, wondering what the man was up to.
Before she even reached the president’s office, she heard a burst of bell-like laughter, crisp and pleasant, unstoppable.
Along with the woman’s voice was a man’s low chuckling. Xu Chaomu recognized it—it was Shen Chi’s voice, and the two seed… quite rry in their conversation.
The door to the office was ajar, and she hesitated, wondering if she should stand by for a while.
He was doing fine without her by his side. She was just a dispensable being.
She lingered outside the door for a while, holding a stack of drawings, not wanting to interrupt him.
“President Shen really knows how to flatter soone. I’m just giving it my best, to make sure I won’t cause any trouble for you,” the woman laughed.
“I’m serious, Linda. Your designs always catch people’s attention,” Shen Chi said in his deep and magnetic voice, which Xu Chaomu hadn’t heard in many days. Hearing it now made her heart skip a beat.
“President Shen, if you keep praising like that, I’ll get embarrassed,” Linda said.
“A graduate from Cambridge, indeed impressive.”
Xu Chaomu listened for a while then couldn’t bear it anymore. Was he calling her over to watch him flirt with soone else?
Ha, how could she forget? He was that tacky—always liking soone to witness his displays of affection.
Back in the day, when he was with Bai Man, didn’t he often show off in front of her?
She composed her face, unaffected as she knocked on the door of the president’s office.
“President Shen,” she called out expressionlessly.
Only then did the two people, previously engrossed in conversation, look up in unison.
Xu Chaomu stood with the drawings, and, sure enough, the one nad Linda was bursting with energy.
He had such tacky tastes…
Because it was sumr, Linda was wearing a low-cut, tight-fitting dress, with certain areas particularly drawing the eye.
Linda was so close to Shen Chi, they were almost touching.
When Linda saw Xu Chaomu, Shen Chi restrained his laughter and spoke in a deep voice, “Co in.”
“Oh, soone has arrived. President Shen, I’ll leave first then,” Linda laughed.
“Wait,” Shen Chi stopped her.
Linda didn’t actually intend to leave, and seeing that Shen Chi wanted her to stay, she simply crossed her arms and stood aside.
Xu Chaomu slamd the design drawings onto Shen Chi’s desk with a “thud.”
“President Shen, please review them.”
Her face was devoid of emotion, as if speaking with a stranger.
Haven’t seen Shen Chi for several days, he seed to be in a good mood.
Without her by his side, life went on just as splendidly. Why then, did he always insincerely tell her, “Don’t leave ”?
“Nowadays, young girls sure have big tempers. President Shen, your employees really are different,” Linda laughed.
“Spoiled,” Shen Chi remarked coldly.
He reserved all his smiles; his eyes were as if filled with ice.
At his cold bark, even Linda jumped, patting her chest in fright, her face losing color.
Xu Chaomu, on the other hand, was used to it and just scoffed, remaining silent.
Linda saw the design and was the first to flip through it. Being a designer herself, she understood the field.
“This draft is careless, the the is not prominent, and the lines are too rough,” Linda criticized.
“It’s for President Shen to look at!” Xu Chaomu raised her voice, annoyed.
Her complexion was unsightly. What was Shen Chi implying?
“For to see?” Shen Chi scoffed, picking up the draft and scanning it, “Good, now look at your design draft. Where’s there a hint of serious work attitude? This project has been assigned to you for three days, and you bring sothing to just scrape by and deceive ? Shen Group isn’t a shelter; if you just want to skate through without working, you better roll up your stuff and go ho right now!”
Shen Chi’s expression was cold as he slapped the desk with several smacks, startling Linda into constant blinking.
Xu Chaomu was also shocked; this was the first ti Shen Chi had criticized her in front of soone else.
Tears began to spin in her eyes imdiately, but she held back, not allowing them to fall.
“Shen Group doesn’t need employees who don’t strive for progress. You had three days and you give this to fulfill the task? If you don’t want to work, pack up and leave early!” Shen Chi scolded.
Biting her lip, Xu Chaomu took a while to stabilize her emotions.
“You know yourself it’s only been three days? I’ve been working hard on the draft. What right do you have to rebuke without distinction? Given three days, no other designer’s drawings would be any better than mine!”
Xu Chaomu faced him without yielding.
This man was clearly settling personal scores, making her embarrassed on purpose.
“Xu Chaomu, how many days have you been working? Instead of reflecting on yourself, you’re here arguing with . If you don’t want to work, go write your resignation now! Shen Group doesn’t need employees like you who don’t seek improvent or show remorse!”
