Chapter 389: Chapter 396 On Duty
After finishing her al, Su ngxin stood in front of the living room’s floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the scenery of the neighborhood outside, saying, "This complex seems nicer than the one I’m living in now."
Xu Yingying stood by Su ngxin’s side and said, "It is indeed nicer. This is the newest complex, while the one you live in has been around for a few years."
"Then how about I move here tomorrow? That way I can go to work with you guys every day and won’t need those bodyguards anymore. Otherwise, even going to work ans having bodyguards follow , and without doing much, my colleagues in the office start sensing sothing’s up."
Xu Yingying imdiately said, "That’s great, then you can co over to our place for a chat and all, so you won’t feel lonely."
Su ngxin chuckled softly, "I could even freeload and eat at your place."
Xu Yingying laughed, "That’s absolutely fine. It just ans Yifei has to cook a bit more."
ng Xiaofei, the foodie, imdiately jumped over at the ntion of freeloading food and asked, "Where can I snag a free al?"
Su ngxin laughed, "I’m planning on moving in here and scrounging off Yingying’s als."
"Ah, then that leaves
alone living over there. I’ll move over too! Sister Yingying, are there any other apartnts for rent here?"
Su ngxin narrowed her eyes and said, "Since Xiaofei also wants to co over, I’ll take care of it."
ng Xiaofei imdiately exclaid in excitent, "Yay, then I can freeload off Brother Li’s als too!"
Xu Yingying laughed, "That’s certainly fine."
Seeing Xu Yingying’s agreent, ng Xiaofei quickly ran over and sat next to Li Yifei, saying, "Brother Li, Sister ngxin said she’ll move over to this complex with , and Sister Yingying has agreed too. From now on, I can eat your cooking again."
Li Yifei had already heard what Su ngxin said and smiled, "You little foodie, you really can’t be gotten rid of, no matter where you go."
"Hehe, I almost did get rid of you, but I’ve caught up again."
ng Xiaofei’s head was indeed simple; she didn’t care how Su ngxin would find an apartnt, as that matter was left to Su ngxin.
In Huaxia, there weren’t many who could let Su ngxin help them so assuredly; apart from ng Xiaofei, it would be hard to find others. Sotis having a simple mind is indeed a blissful thing.
It was getting late, so Li Yifei sent Su ngxin and ng Xiaofei ho, and he also went to check on his own place. Su Yiyi wasn’t there, but the house was tidied up neatly, spotless; Su Yiyi must have co by today nonetheless.
For Su Yiyi, Li Yifei would preserve this ho even if it ans hiding the beauty in a golden house.
The next day, Li Yifei had an extra task, which was to pick up Su ngxin. That was indeed quite inconvenient; of course, it was better for everyone to live in the sa complex.
Today, Su ngxin was dressed in a professional suit, a tight-fitting blouse, and a pair of grey straight-leg pants, with silver high-heeled leather sandals on her feet, and her toenails painted with light pink nail polish, nearly the sa color as her skin, just a tad shinier.
Her outfit was simple but didn’t affect Su ngxin’s beauty in the slightest, and it made her even more captivating. Regardless of how Su ngxin dressed up, even as a beggar, she would still be strikingly dazzling.
Upon arriving at the company, from the security guards at the entrance to the employees inside, everyone was excited and also puzzled; Li Yifei had said just yesterday that Su ngxin wasn’t hired, but today the beautiful woman had returned, and from her outfit, it seed like she had co to work.
Li Yifei directly took Su ngxin to his office and then phoned Michelle to arrange for a set of office furniture and so supplies to be delivered.
It wasn’t long before Michelle arrived with soone, bringing the items. Seeing Su ngxin, Michelle couldn’t help but be amazed by her beauty. In front of Xu Yingying, Michelle hadn’t felt inferior, but in front of Su ngxin, she suddenly felt sowhat ashad.
"This is our company’s Manager Mi, Manager Mi, this is my new secretary, Su ngxin," Li Yifei introduced them to each other.
Su ngxin imdiately extended her hand generously and said, "Nice to et you, Manager Mi. I hope for your guidance in the future."
Michelle quickly shook hands with Su ngxin, saying, "Not at all, if there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask
anyti."
At this ti, Li Yifei had already instructed the two logistics staff mbers to set up Su ngxin’s desk and chair near the office door; this is usually where a secretary would be positioned. Since Su ngxin was to be a secretary, she couldn’t be an exception.
Usually, a secretary wouldn’t need to be in the sa office as Li Yifei, but considering Su ngxin’s special status and the fact that soone had specifically targeted her before, Li Yifei decided it was best to arrange for Su ngxin to be in his office to ensure her absolute safety.
After Michelle left, Su ngxin tidied up her seat, and Li Yifei ca over to help. Su ngxin imdiately said, "You’re the manager, I’m the secretary, how could I let you help? You better attend to your own tasks; it wouldn’t look good if soone else walked in and saw."
Li Yifei had no choice but to stop and, after returning to his desk, he sat down. However, watching Su ngxin bustling about while he was idle made him feel quite uncomfortable.
Just as Su ngxin had said, hardly had Li Yifei settled into his seat when Chen Xingrui, the chubby guy, knocked on the door and slipped in. He ca in with a serious look, but his eyes swept over Su ngxin and then couldn’t pull away.
"Ahem!" Li Yifei coughed loudly, snapping Chen Xingrui out of his trance.
"Manager Li, this is the personnel requirent sent over from the marketing research departnt. Take a look," Chen Xingrui reported, pretending to work. Then he winked at Li Yifei and jerked his chin toward Su ngxin’s desk, signalling he wanted to know what was going on.
Li Yifei ignored him completely, waved his hand dismissively, and said, "You can go."
Chen Xingrui lingered reluctantly before finally leaving.
By this ti, Su ngxin had finished organizing her desk. Her movents were quick and efficient. She even ca over to pour Li Yifei a cup of tea, saying, "Your tea isn’t good, I’ll bring you so better tea later."
Li Yifei felt awkward having Su ngxin pour his tea as well, but upon hearing she would bring him tea, he readily agreed. The tea Su ngxin could get would certainly be top-notch; even getting so premium Red Robe Tea would be no problem for her. It seed like having Su ngxin around would be quite enjoyable after all.
Li Yifei stood up and said, "Let’s go. I’ll introduce you to the Human Resources Departnt colleagues. Otherwise, these guys won’t stop coming in."
Su ngxin smiled and agreed, following behind Li Yifei.
Li Yifei felt an imnse pride at that mont, that he could have Su ngxin as his follower; surely, not many in Huaxia had such an honor.
Before they even entered the Human Resources Departnt office, they heard Chen Xingrui’s voice rising from inside.
"Wow, that beauty is actually in Manager Li’s office, and there’s even a desk for her! I think she’s going to work here, and she might even be Manager Li’s secretary!"
"That’s just amazing, now we can see a beauty every day!"
"Manager Li’s move is brilliant. Yesterday he pretended he wouldn’t keep the beauty, and that was to keep other managers from knowing. Look at Manager Sun from the procurent departnt; he’s usually so arrogant and lecherous. If he knew such a beauty had joined the company, he’d certainly fight Manager Li for her. But now, the beauty has beco Manager Li’s secretary, and he can only watch enviously."
Manager Li instantly felt a headache coming on from their wild imaginations. He turned to Su ngxin, who seed to have heard the conversation and offered Li Yifei a mischievous smile.
"Ahem!" Li Yifei coughed lightly at the door, and the room instantly fell quiet. Only then did he walk Su ngxin into the Human Resources Departnt’s office.
The employees in the office all turned to look, Li Yifei knew they weren’t really looking at him; their attention was on Su ngxin behind him, the won included.
"Colleagues, this is Su ngxin, my new secretary and now part of our Human Resources Departnt," he announced.
"Oh yeah!" Everyone started to cheer and shout.
Chen Xingrui didn’t lose his soul like the first couple of tis he’d seen Su ngxin. He dashed up to her, extended his hand, and said, "My na is Chen Xingrui. I joined the company when it was just founded, to so extent, am an old-tir here. If there’s anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask ."
Su ngxin shook hands with Chen Xingrui graciously, but his feigned composure vanished instantly as she withdrew her hand, leaving him holding his up foolishly, staring at her.
Li Yifei kicked Chen Xingrui’s butt, embarrassed by his behavior, and scolded, "What are you spacing out for?"
Chen Xingrui snapped out of his daze and, blushing, ran back to his desk.
The others weren’t as impulsive as Chen Xingrui; Li Yifei went on to introduce them to Su ngxin, who greeted everyone with a smile.
Then, Chen Xingrui called out, "Manager Li, we have a new colleague in Human Resources. Aren’t you going to treat us tonight?"
This was a normal request; when a new person joined a departnt, a al out was customary to help everyone get acquainted and to foster good working relationships. Li Yifei readily agreed to host the al.
A round of cheers ensued, and Su ngxin’s face lit up with a happy smile. This simple kind of joy was sothing she hadn’t paid much attention to before.
