Chapter 272: Chapter 279: Ethereal
"Li Manager..." A young male colleague ca face to face with him, just greeted Li Yifei, but when he saw Su ngxin, that "Manager" word just wouldn’t co out.
"Ouch!" A male employee turned his head back and kept looking after Su ngxin walked by, but completely neglected what was in front of him and ran straight into a wall, causing a large bump on his forehead.
As Su ngxin followed Li Yifei from the first floor to the fourth, several incidents like this occurred.
This left Li Yifei not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and he couldn’t help but admire Su ngxin’s beauty and its impact on n.
"Ahem, I now really understand what ’fem fatale’ ans," Li Yifei murmured softly while rubbing his nose.
However, Su ngxin heard this and sighed, "I don’t want it either, but it’s not like I can just go and make myself uglier, right?"
Li Yifei rolled his eyes and said, "Would you even let those female colleagues survive? If they heard this, they might as well want to die."
Su ngxin chuckled and said, "Co on, let’s go see your office first."
"Aren’t you going to et President Xu and the others first?"
"Hehe, if I want to work in this company, I have to get through you, the Human Resources Manager, right? Otherwise, how could I be hired?"
"All right, you’re unbelievable," Li Yifei said, not taking Su ngxin’s words too seriously.
But after Su ngxin made this joke, a bold idea suddenly popped into her mind. Although she was now living close to Li Yifei, the best way to get to know him better was to work with him, so she really did want to co here and work with Li Yifei.
"Brother Li, you’re back," ca the sound of high heels tapping quickly on the floor, followed by Michelle’s voice reaching Li Yifei’s ears.
Li Yifei stopped, turned around to face Michelle, and smiled, "Yes, back now. Haven’t seen you for a few days, Michelle, and you’ve beco even prettier."
Michelle was wearing the sa dress she had bought with Li Yifei, and upon hearing his complint, joy shone in her eyes, sweeter than honey. Her cheeks flushed, she approached Li Yifei and said, "Brother Li, you’re so naughty, teasing
as soon as you get back."
Li Yifei responded with a smile, "How am I teasing you? You really are pretty, Michelle."
Michelle coquettishly twisted her body and was just about to chat with Li Yifei when she saw Su ngxin beside him. Although Michelle was a beautiful woman herself, she was stunned by Su ngxin’s beauty. Her gaze was imdiately drawn to Su ngxin. Excited at first by Li Yifei’s complint, she now felt like an ugly duckling compared to the proud swan that was Su ngxin.
"Brother Li, who is this..." Michelle stamred, looking at Li Yifei with a flicker of panic in her eyes. She had never seen Li Yifei’s girlfriend Su Yiyi, and if this woman was Su Yiyi, Michelle felt she might not stand a chance at all.
Li Yifei smiled slightly and said, "This is Su ngxin, she is..."
Su ngxin interrupted Li Yifei seamlessly and politely said, "I’m here for a job interview."
Li Yifei was taken aback for a mont. Su ngxin had only ntioned she was his friend when she ca; now she was suddenly talking about a job interview – what was going on?
Relief washed over Michelle, and she quickly smiled, "I see, Brother Li, I won’t disturb your work then. Co find
when you have ti, okay?"
Li Yifei nodded and said, "Sure, I’m heading back to the office now."
Su ngxin nodded at Michelle and turned to follow Li Yifei.
As she watched the two leave, Michelle still felt a bit anxious. What if Su ngxin joined the company and fell for Brother Li too? The thought of competing with Su ngxin’s beauty drained Michelle of all courage.
Once they arrived at Li Yifei’s office, Su ngxin looked around curiously, then sat in the chair opposite Li Yifei, frowned, and said, "Your office is a bit too small, right? They should give you a bigger one. Also, the facilities are too basic; they should all be better."
Li Yifei imdiately replied, "I think it’s quite all right. This is the standard for the mid-level managers in our company."
Su ngxin chuckled secretly to herself, realizing she had been setting standards for Li Yifei based on soone of her own level, which obviously made Li Yifei’s office seem woefully inadequate.
"By the way, why did you say earlier that you ca here for a job interview?" Li Yifei asked, puzzled.
Su ngxin laughed lightly, her eyes playfully twinkling, "What, is that not allowed?"
"It’s your company, so you can play however you want," Li Yifei laughed.
Squinting her eyes at Li Yifei, Su ngxin said, "Yeah, I’m getting a bit bored with life at the mont. Maybe one day I will co and play the role of a small employee for fun. Luckily, with you here, I won’t have to worry about my safety. That way, I could be free and have a lot of fun."
The more Su ngxin talked, the brighter her eyes shone. The more she spoke, the more she felt this was a good idea, which could bring her closer to Li Yifei and also let her experience a whole new life.
Li Yifei’s face darkened imdiately, and he said, "Then I’d be in trouble."
Su ngxin giggled, "I’m not thinking about it right now. When I find the ti, I’ll co and work for you, the big HR Manager, for a couple of days. You can’t refuse that."
Li Yifei gave Su ngxin a look and said, "Do I have the right to refuse?"
"Anyway, when the ti cos, I’ll be under you, doing whatever you tell
to do. I’ll listen to you completely."
Li Yifei rubbed his nose and said, "That actually sounds pretty good, being able to command you. That’s probably what every man in the world dreams of."
"Really? I’ve never felt that from you."
"I’m a practical person; I don’t want to be a reckless fool."
Su ngxin actually hoped Li Yifei would beco such a daring fool, but she also knew she liked Li Yifei not only because he had saved her but also because he never lost his reason over her beauty. She laughed, "Not necessarily. Dong Yong got together with the Seventh Fairy, and Niu Lang even married the Weaver Girl."
"Haha, those two are just fools. Just look what happened to them in the end?"
Su ngxin’s face turned dark and she gave Li Yifei a glare, saying, "You really are unromantic, unable to understand the greatness of love."
"Love can’t be eaten, and it can’t be used to get through an entire lifeti."
A knock on the door interrupted Li Yifei and Su ngxin’s conversation as a staff mber from the Human Resources Departnt walked in. He was the Deputy HR Manager, and during Li Yifei’s absence, he had been in charge of the work. Now that Li Yifei was back, naturally, he had to co and report.
But when he saw Su ngxin, he was montarily stunned until Li Yifei coughed lightly, bringing him back to his senses. However, while reporting to Li Yifei, his eyes still kept straying towards Su ngxin, making him even stumble over his words.
"Alright, I’ll ask you about it later," Li Yifei waved him off, shooing the Deputy HR Manager out.
But not even a few minutes passed before another person from the Human Resources Departnt ca asking for work, and upon entering, their gaze intentionally shifted towards Su ngxin.
This kind of reporting happened several tis, involved not only the HR Departnt but also other departnts. Clearly, word had gotten out that a great beauty was in Li Yifei’s office, and they used the excuse of reporting work as a pretext to have a look at the beauty.
This made Li Yifei speechless. After sending another away, he quickly stood up and said to Su ngxin, "We better hurry up and go find President Xu. With you here, my office has turned into a marketplace."
Su ngxin was well aware of her appeal, but normally she wouldn’t have so many bold employees coming to look at her. She found it quite amusing, particularly when she saw Li Yifei’s exasperated expression. She was enjoying herself but knew it wouldn’t be right to keep sitting there and ignoring Xu Yingying, otherwise, Xu Yingying might really suspect her reason for the visit.
When the two arrived at Xu Yingying’s office, she imdiately offered Su ngxin a seat respectfully and even poured her tea personally, since Su ngxin did not want to let the staff know her identity, so she didn’t let the secretary co in.
With a smile, Su ngxin said, "President Xu, please don’t be so formal. I’m just here to look around today. We’re just going to chat informally. I’m not here for a work report."
Xu Yingying was stunned. The chairman coming not to hear work reports but just to have fun was indeed rare, but she understood that Su ngxin didn’t usually put on airs. At least from the few tis she had interacted with her, Su ngxin always seed very approachable.
Su ngxin chatted casually with Xu Yingying and brought her a gift, which sowhat flattered Xu Yingying.
Smiling, Su ngxin said, "President Xu, work is hard, but personal issues also need to be addressed, don’t they? Do you have a boyfriend now? If you do, I’ll have to vet him thoroughly for you."
Xu Yingying’s gaze involuntarily swept towards Li Yifei, and he imdiately rolled his eyes, thinking about boyfriends: Why are you looking at ? I haven’t agreed to anything.
"Chairman, the company is just starting up, and there’s so much to do. Where do I have the ti to find a boyfriend? Plus, I’m not in a rush."
"That’s not too good, you know. You shouldn’t let work affect your love life." Saying this, Su ngxin glanced at Li Yifei and laughed softly, "I think Yifei is quite good. Haven’t you considered him at all?"
