Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Integrating into the Small Group
On this day, Li Yifei and Michelle had inspected two more warehouses, and since the two warehouses checked today were relatively small, the workload was also much smaller. Returning to the company before three o’clock, Michelle started to organize the materials and compile a work summary.
Li Yifei sat next to Michelle, lending a hand while also taking the opportunity to learn. Presumably, Zheng Xiuqin intended for Li Yifei to learn from Michelle, and it was highly possible she wanted him to take over Michelle’s duties in the future, because having a girl like Michelle carry out warehouse inspections didn’t seem quite appropriate.
After two days of interaction, Michelle’s impression of Li Yifei was quite good. At the very least, he had always shown her a lot of respect, never bullied her, or taken advantage of her. Of course, the main reason was that Li Yifei had rescued her from a small-ti thug; hence in just two short days, Michelle had co to trust Li Yifei imnsely. Even with Li Yifei sitting beside her, she was able to relax a bit.
Once the summary was completed, they were the only ones left in the logistics departnt. The two drivers were out driving for so leaders, and Li Zhisheng and Shen Yajuan had not returned yet.
"Finally done," Michelle leaned back in her chair and stretched her arms, causing her chest to protrude noticeably.
Such a gesture was indeed quite tempting, especially when made by a delicate girl like Michelle, which added an elent of shock. Li Yifei couldn’t help but glance over a couple more tis.
Noticing Li Yifei’s gaze, Michelle quickly sat up, her face turning slightly red. Li Yifei imdiately laughed and said, "That stretch of yours looked really good."
Michelle hadn’t expected Li Yifei to not only look but also to comnt directly; her face turned even redder, not knowing how to respond.
Li Yifei laughed again and said, "I didn’t an anything by it, just a simple appreciation."
Michelle could tell that Li Yifei’s eyes were very clear, which put her at ease. Indeed, at her age, it was ti for her to have a boyfriend, but because she was pretty, the n that interacted with her always looked at her with an uncomfortable gaze, which over ti had made her quite wary.
"Brother Li, you used to be a security guard, so how did you suddenly join our company? We weren’t even hiring," she asked.
Michelle was younger than Li Yifei, so out of politeness, she called him "Brother Li." Girls tend to be a bit gossipy, and she was genuinely curious about how Li Yifei had co to Huayang.
Li Yifei smiled slightly and replied, "I was arranged by President Xu; I helped her out before."
"Oh..." Michelle nodded, "So you must be capable, since President Xu arranged it. She’s the least sentintal person around. I’ve never seen her put any relatives in positions around the company, unlike the people in the headquarters who are always trying to slot in soone at our branch."
"You seem dissatisfied?" Li Yifei asked with a smile.
Michelle pouted, "Of course I’m dissatisfied. Those people co here with no ability, they do a poor job, so barely even co in for work, yet they still get paid a lot. It’s not just , everybody is pretty unhappy."
Li Yifei really hadn’t anticipated such complex human relations within a company. "So President Xu tolerates this kind of thing?" he asked.
Michelle pouted even more, "Of course President Xu is unhappy about it, but those are orders from the higher-ups, and she can’t do much about it. Besides, the better the company performs, the more people will want to join our Huayang branch."
Li Yifei’s eyes widened, "So they’re just here to take advantage?"
More angrily, Michelle said, "Exactly! So we who work hard and are dedicated to the company’s growth feel trendously aggrieved. Why should we work so hard when they can co and reap the rewards without doing anything?"
"That’s really no good. I fear that us hard workers might feel increasingly resentful," Li Yifei said, naturally including himself in the category of diligent workers, even though he hadn’t yet undertaken any real work, and it was unclear if he would in the future.
"Right, if it wasn’t for President Xu, we wouldn’t bother working so hard," she said.
Li Yifei, feigning righteous indignation, added, "Exactly, if it weren’t for President Xu, I wouldn’t be working hard either." But unlike Michelle, he didn’t feel it as strongly; he was rely pretending to empathize with her.
"I’m exhausted. Oh, you two got back quite early," spoke Shen Yajuan as she returned, imdiately complaining as she entered.
"Sister Shen," Li Yifei and Michelle greeted together.
Shen Yajuan ca over to their desks, smiling at them, "Hehe, you two paired up man and woman is quite an efficient way to work, not at all tiring. Not like , alone and bored to death. Hey Michelle, how about letting Little Li go with Sister Shen next ti?"
Michelle’s face turned red imdiately, and she stuttered, "Sister Shen, you... don’t joke around; there’s nothing between us."
Shen Yajuan giggled, "Look at you, blushing at a joke, and you’re such a big girl. But you know, Little Li is around your age, and I think you two really make a good match. It wouldn’t be bad if you were to date."
