The cliché story of a domineering president and his secretary

Chapter 109: The Grass on the Edge



Chapter 109: The Grass on the Edge

"Xiao You from our department is gentle and weak, with a very classical appearance and temperament." This time it was Millie's turn to start gossiping.

"I know, I know. She came to work several times wearing Chinese costumes, with complicated long hair styles and holding a round fan. To be honest, I was really amazed by her!"

Millie smiled mysteriously: "When did she dress like this? She had to calculate the timing!" The others were not surprised, they just shook their heads and sighed, "Another poor guy."

"Those clothes are not ordinary. They are modified versions of Chinese clothing tailored to suit the workplace. Our manager was speechless. It was a beautiful edge ball. I have admired it up close. The workmanship and fabrics are definitely expensive. After we got to know each other better, she said that she had been to the head office for an interview, but for some reason she was not hired, so she decided to come to Sun Technology. The boss rarely came to our company before, and she was very regretful, but she still made all kinds of inquiries and even wanted to make friends with Li Xiaomeng to get more information..."

"Ah? What does she think? Will that iceberg care about her?" Zhou Ya sneered.

"Haha, yes. Xiao You is smart enough to see Li Xiao Meng's character. He is just trying all sorts of tricks. In fact, such a beautiful girl has never lacked suitors. Even now, she still receives bouquets and gifts every now and then. I wonder how many bees are hanging on her peach blossom. Anyway, she is very popular."

"Is she still thinking about the boss? I didn't notice it yesterday." Jiaxuan tried hard to recall.

"Didn't you see she was dressed like a fairy when she came to climb the mountain? She was wearing embroidered and tasseled satin half-heeled shoes. Several male colleagues followed her along the way, chatting and taking pictures with her. I did catch a glimpse of her walking around in front of the boss a few times, but that was all."

"With Xiaoyou's position, she can't interact with the boss, and it's not easy to create opportunities. That's why she wants to attract attention with her unique clothing. She's really painstaking. In fact, with her conditions, even if she's not the boss, she won't have trouble choosing a good husband."

"It depends on whether her heart can fly down from the clouds!" Zhou Ya took over Qin Shan's words, and at the same time stretched out her orchid finger, shyly stood up and pretended to be a fairy descending to the earth. The others were amused by her lifelike appearance and bent over with laughter.

"Even Suntech is so unstable, and I don't know how many beauties are drooling over the boss."

"Yes, it's also the boss's own fault. Not to mention others, when I first started working, I was worried that the boss would take action against this delicate little flower in the greenhouse, and I was secretly worried about how to refuse." Millie said shyly.

Jiaxuan quickly raised her hands in agreement: "Me too! Haha, but later I found out that the boss was so self-disciplined that I worried for nothing."

"Is that wine in your bottles? Why are you talking so freely?" Qin Shan smiled with a blush on her face, but she did not forget to remind them.

Zhou Ya pushed her and said, "We are all so excited today, don't spoil the fun! Besides, no one else can hear us. As for me, I haven't thought about it this way, but my mom is so worried!"

"Auntie still knows the boss?"

"Hey, I inherited my gossiping instinct from her. I know everything about celebrities and gossip in the entertainment industry. The old lady was very worried that her beautiful and kind-hearted daughter would be toyed around by her playboy and ruthless boss, and eventually abandoned miserably. She wanted to cry every time she thought about it. I had to waste a full hour making a serious statement: the boss is the best example of 'a rabbit does not eat grass near its burrow', and your precious daughter is not worthy of his attention. Even so, I only got a helpless look from her that said 'you don't understand, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice', and she still often reminds me indirectly." After saying this, she shook her head and sighed helplessly.

At this time, Millie had already fallen off her chair due to laughing so hard, Jiaxuan was holding her stomach and waving her hands to ask Zhou Ya to shut up. Qin Shan was the only one who sat steadily and maintained her ladylike demeanor, but her slightly twitching lips and shaking body had already betrayed her. A glance out of the corner of her eye showed that many of her colleagues were looking at her with a curious look on their faces. Qin Shan smiled bitterly in her heart: Alas, I have lost my image at all because of these crazy girls.

At this time, in the business car, the "rabbit" known as the best example was thinking about how to eat the innocent "grass beside the nest". If Zhou Ya knew, would she feel a burning pain on her face?

Hiding again.

His excellent assistant hid herself quietly behind Manager Lu, and Ding Hong could notice it without even looking up, because he never let her out of his sight.

From the first eye contact, to the first seat adjustment, to the first time they were alone, this woman always avoided him, her boss whom she should have flattered, for fear of being tainted by his abomination. Instead, this attracted his attention, inquiry, and his always strong desire to win. Ding Hong wanted to force this woman to be unable to avoid him and to keep her tightly imprisoned.

As if he was tired of sitting in the same position, Ding Hong slightly leaned to the side, and the woman appeared in his sight again.

An Yi did not give up, and leaned down a little bit towards the window, successfully avoiding it again. Unexpectedly, the boss happened to reach for the water cup on the mini bar in the car, and his body moved slightly, exposing himself again.

After several attempts, An Yi gradually realized a fact: Could it be that the boss had seen through her thoughts and was deliberately preventing her from hiding? She had been looking down and pretending to be taking notes, but now she could no longer hold back and glanced at the boss, who was listening to the managers' reports the entire time without even raising his eyelids.

Is it a coincidence? Although she was suspicious, there was really no reason for the boss to play hide-and-seek with her, right? An Yi shook her head lightly, feeling as if her brain was half flour and half water. Now, she had turned herself into a pot of paste. She was not good at making things difficult for herself, so she quickly gave up this seemingly unsolvable situation and devoted herself to the meeting.

Realizing that the other party had surrendered, Ding Hong showed an almost invisible sneer at the corner of his mouth. Then he pointed out two serious mistakes in Manager Yu's report in a good mood without reprimanding him, which surprised the two managers. They looked at each other and secretly felt lucky.

In Yunqing Town, Qin Shan and others are still trying to figure out how the boss can remain calm in the face of so many female employees rushing towards him.

"Of course he doesn't like it. The boss has deep connections in the entertainment industry. What kind of high-quality beauties has he not seen? And their beauties are all professionally packaged and carefully made."

"That may not be the reason. Amateurs have their own charm. They are probably afraid that Manager Lu's behavior will cause the harem to interfere in government affairs and damage the interests of the company."

"Many entrepreneurs have been blinded by lust and had affairs with their female subordinates. This shows that our boss has extraordinary self-control and knows when to be strict and when to be indulgent."

"Yes, the boss I met in the company and the one who appeared in the entertainment section are completely different. This is called...contrast cuteness!" Millie blinked with admiration on her face.

Zhou Ya teased her, "Don't just use a buzzword. Can you call your boss's strong personality 'cute'? Fortunately, Sister An An wasn't here, or else she would have fainted on the spot out of anger!"

"Speaking of Sister An An, she is the one with the most contrasting cuteness." Qin Shan mused, "Usually, she treats the boss like a mouse seeing a cat, but at the monthly meeting to appoint her as the president's assistant, she had the courage to refuse again and again. She was so stubborn that the boss did not directly refute her, but chose a soft landing."

"Ah? You are so observant. I only remember that the boss was so fierce and ferocious, which made Sister An An look even weaker and more helpless. My heart was in my throat!"

"It turns out that the boss's decision was very wise. Although this sister is very indifferent to work, she is able to work well with the strong and strict boss. Look at Yun Qingshan's arrangement this time, which takes care of every aspect and is foolproof."

"So being indifferent is just her personality, and being conscientious is her real work attitude. Sometimes I think that it is because Sister An An knows very well that she is too conscientious at work and does not want to be too tired that she wants to avoid the appointment as the president's secretary."

"Wow! This incredible logic has me dizzy!" Jiaxuan cried out with her head in her hands.

Qin Shan chuckled: "Guess what Sister An An was doing when I returned to her room last night?" Without waiting for anyone to answer, she continued, "She was working overtime on her computer."

Several girls were silent. They found the gap between their work and that of this calm and soft-spoken lady. Although they had seen Sister An An's dedication to her work when they were working in the warehouse, after all, there were very few employees who could win the boss's affirmation and trust. But at that time, time was tight and the task was heavy, so everyone thought that Sister An An was forced to do something. But yesterday was the most relaxed moment for everyone, and she was still able to maintain a good working state. How could we not be in awe of her?

"Let's not be too self-deprecating, okay?" Qin Shan didn't expect that her usual cheerful friends were so motivated, otherwise they wouldn't have reacted so strongly to her words. She couldn't help but comfort them, "Sister An An has been appreciated by the boss in a short period of time. It's normal for her to have outstanding qualities, isn't it? Besides..." She hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Her sleep quality is very poor, so she's probably working so late to kill time."

"Oh? What did you say?" Several people had recovered from their amazement and asked at the same time, their faces full of concern.

Qin Shan bit her red lips and frowned, "I have mild neurasthenia, and I sleep lightly and am easily awakened. I saw Sister An An leaning against the bed in a half-awake state. She wasn't looking at her phone or listening to music, but was staring blankly at the shadows of tree branches reflected through the gauze curtains outside the window. I turned over and accidentally lifted the quilt. Because the air conditioner was on and she was afraid that I would catch a cold, she got up and tucked the corners of the quilt for me several times."

"Huh? Is it like this all night?"

"She didn't go to bed until the latter part of the night, and I didn't want to cause embarrassment, so I kept pretending to sleep."

"Did she cry secretly?"

"No, there is no sound at all. It's been like this for two nights in a row. It's like he just can't sleep. Or maybe he doesn't want to disturb me while I'm resting so he can only sit there." Qin Shan couldn't bear it when she said this.

"It's very likely. Although Sister An An didn't mention her family situation, we have also speculated that her children should not be raised by her side, and they only get together on weekends. During the week, ah... maybe she misses her too much and suffers from insomnia."

"So we need to avoid certain topics when talking in front of her, and try not to touch Sister An An's already very fragile nerves."

"When I was about to gossip about things like Manager Lu cheating on me, I quickly held it back because of this concern."

"Well done!" Qin Shan patted Jiaxuan's shoulder approvingly: "In today's society, the most likely cause of divorce is that men can't control their lower body."

The few of them fell silent again, sighing at the injustice of life to An Yi. At the same time, they also secretly wondered why Qin Shan's thoughts were so mature and profound. If they didn't know that her parents were in love and that she and her boyfriend were childhood sweethearts and had a stable relationship, they would really doubt her past experiences.

"But I didn't see that she was sleepy at all during the day?" Millie broke the silence.

"That's not clear, but long-term insomnia is definitely very damaging to the body. Sister An An even had hypoglycemia while climbing the mountain yesterday."

"Oh, she eats too little."

"Looking at it this way, Qin Lang is quite capable. When we had lunch together, he always made a fuss to get Sister An An to eat more."

"I only gave in to him because Sister An An was so annoyed. What kind of ability is that?" Zhou Ya rolled her eyes and said disdainfully. Then she remembered something: "I heard he's coming back soon?"

Jiaxuan nodded: "Manager Lu said that he would come back before the new product launch next month. Hehe, I really miss this little sunshine!"

Inside the business car, the topics discussed were also related to Little Sun.

Manager Wan was asking: "Qin Lang's mission over there has been successfully completed. Boss, can you call him back?"

"Well, he performed well this time and is currently the person most familiar with the new product. Don't delay him there. There are too many things that need him to do here."

Hearing Qin Lang's name, An Yi listened carefully to the boss's decision, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. This scene fell into someone's eyes, causing that person to narrow his eyes dangerously. The air pressure in the car suddenly dropped sharply to freezing point, and the other people shuddered inexplicably.

Naturally, the only person who could cause such an effect was Ding Hong. Fortunately, the loss of control only lasted for a moment and he quickly returned to normal. An Yi only suspected that the coldness just now was caused by the air vents of the air conditioner.
