Chapter 1431: Chapter 1444
On weekends, there’s no need to work, and An Ruoxi nestled on the sofa where the sunlight streams in, from this angle she could see the distant ship gradually moving away, drifting like her current mood.
Her rival, regardless of wealth, background, or personal qualities, is undoubtedly the most compatible with Wei Yu. What does she have to compete with others? To compare with others?
Anyway, she hasn’t even fought three rounds yet and she’s already been pushed underground, sentenced to death.
Another sigh, the ringing phone pulled her wandering mind back to reality. An Ruoxi flexed her numb ankle and picked up the phone; the two characters shining on the screen made her hesitate. Since she took this step, it also ant that she and Lu Fei would never be possible.
After much contemplation, even as the phone screen dimd, she didn’t have the courage to answer.
Things seem to have no room for maneuver, in this war without smoke, she’s like a jumping clown, in outsiders’ eyes, she’s a hard-working ugly duckling striving upward.
But the ugly duckling is still an ugly duckling, can’t beco a swan, can’t be a snow-white princess.
An Ruoxi’s daily job is to clean various conference rooms, with such arrangents, she doesn’t even have the opportunity to et Wei Yu.
"Ruoxi, my stomach hurts."
Having just finished cleaning and returned, she heard a colleague clutching her stomach squatting on the ground, her twisted facial features indicating unbearable pain.
An Ruoxi quickly threw down the mop in her hand and stepped forward to ask, "What’s wrong with you?"
"My... thing... ca..."
An Ruoxi looked at the flushed-faced girl and felt awkward herself, she understood that kind of pain, she used to be in pain to the point of dying, back then her mother wasn’t sick yet, her father was still around, and her mother brought in a highly reputed traditional Chinese dicine doctor, she took half a year of herbal dicine before getting better, but now that doctor isn’t in this city, she said nothing and rose to go out.
Not long after, An Ruoxi ran back, drenched in sweat, panting, she said, "Got it back, ginger brown sugar, I’ll help you pour a cup of hot water."
That’s all she could do.
"Since it’s so bad, why not ask for leave?" An Ruoxi asked.
"It’s Monday today, the higher-ups require regular inspection, Group Leader won’t let us take leave."
An Ruoxi glanced around, although above ground seed grand and magnificent, below ground it was dark and damp. In such a big company, they found such a place for them to rest. An Ruoxi couldn’t help but feel so resentnt towards Wei Yu, n are creatures that don’t understand won.
"Xiao You, you take a rest first, tell
what you should clean, I’ll help you clean it."
The girl nad Xiao You shot An Ruoxi a grateful look, she had always assud An Ruoxi was as people described her, outwardly beautiful but inwardly a venomous Cinderella striving for higher status, yet hadn’t won the prince’s favor and was already sent into the Cold Palace by the prince.
Now seeing her sincere and unblemished eyes, she believed she saw the real her. "Thank you, Ruoxi."
An Ruoxi slightly curved her lips, since she ca to the Sanitation Departnt, everyone coldly mocked her, except for this Xiao You, who didn’t neglect or distance herself because of others’ gossiping. An Ruoxi admitted she was a girl who bore grudges, but she also understood gratitude. If it were soone else here, would she have been busy running around for her?
The answer is unknown, even An Ruoxi herself is confused, as if she has lost herself in the surging tide of a swamp.
Watching as ti ticks away, An Ruoxi mopped the last corridor, once done here she could leave work.
The only perk of being environntal staff is to complete one’s duties. Once completed, she could report to the Group Leader and then leave work.
Today, she finished an hour late, having planned to shop with Shen Yaoyao. Now she had to postpone the shopping ti, and guessed that Shen Yaoyao, that girl, was already going crazy.
An Ruoxi shook her head helplessly, looking at a few lines of text on her phone, all complaints sent by Shen Yaoyao, saying how she’s been forgotten like dust in so corner, while An Ruoxi only pities all living things and forgets to bring her along.
She couldn’t help but smile, this girl, since when did her writing talent improve so much.
After tidying up all her things, she pushed the water cart to leave, this floor, like the one she usually manages, rarely sees people unless there’s an important eting, or a departnt needs to et clients; only then would people co to this floor. Transparent glass composed big and small partitions, everything could be seen at a glance, yet the soundproofing was great, etings held inside were not audible outside.
An Ruoxi pushed the cart toward the elevator, heading for the environntally exclusive elevator, surprisingly there were a few people inside.
When the elevator doors opened, An Ruoxi paused, wasn’t this Moli Sha?
Why is she riding this elevator?
A multitude of questions sparkled in her mind, just as she was about to push the cart in, a pair of black high-heeled leather shoes abruptly stopped her.
"Can’t you see there’s a VIP here?" The screechy, piercing voice, who else but Secretary Li.
A VIP? Can a VIP ride this kind of elevator? Why not the normal elevator and insist on coming to compete with them?
Even Secretary Li was puzzled as to why the president specifically instructed her to arrange for Lady Mo to take the environntal exclusive elevator instead of the president’s elevator; rumors said they were...
Though Secretary Li also loved the Eight Diagrams, these things were best whispered with others occasionally; seeing An Ruoxi after not seeing her for days, she seed noticeably thinner, still wearing humble work attire bought for a dozen bucks, with ssy hair that would look like she fled to here from so calamity.
Secretary Li crossed her arms and gave An Ruoxi a contemptuous glance up and down, "You better wait for the next one."
An Ruoxi didn’t notice the sinister, venomous gaze Moli Sha shot at her as the elevator doors closed, a gaze that seed to want to tear her apart alive, she recognized that girl pushing the cart casually as the one who spoiled her plans that night, couldn’t help but wonder why she would appear in Wei Yu’s company?
An Ruoxi helplessly had to stand and wait for the next elevator, the elevator seed broken, stuck on the top floor, no matter how An Ruoxi pressed it showed no signs of descending.
At this mont, as the discussion in so eting room ended, several n and won walked out. Normally, their business elevator wouldn’t reach An Ruoxi’s area, but soone among them said sothing, leading the group to cast curious glances her way.
