May I Be Like a Star, You Like Dust

Others marry into wealthy families for love, but she married into one purely for money. The man she married didn't love her and kicked her out with nothing. Now, struggling to make ends meet, s...

Chapter 45: The relationship was not friendly at all.

Jian Mujin really wanted to rush up and tear these people's mouths apart, but after thinking about it, she decided not to cause trouble for Long Tingwei, otherwise she would feel guilty.

After Jian Mujin quieted down, she took out her phone and played games by herself.

She doesn't cause trouble for others, but others try every means to cause trouble for her, before she's even sat down for a minute.

Someone threw a stack of papers at me, saying, "These are important documents from the design department. Make a backup to prevent them from being lost!"

Jian Mujin looked at it several times, but couldn't recognize many of the characters. She tossed it aside casually, saying, "I don't understand, I can't do it!"

"Hey! You're sitting here to make money, right? What are you doing here if you can't do anything?"

Jian Mujin blinked innocently, "Just sitting around, it's not like you're paying my salary, so why are you ordering me around?"

The woman pointed at her angrily for a long time, then stomped away in her high heels.

"We can't handle her. If Miss Ling were here, she would definitely give her a good dressing down!" someone scoffed.

Some of the newly hired employees didn't know who Miss Ling was and hurriedly went to ask.

"Miss Ling is the president's fiancée. You don't know, the president, who is so rich and handsome, didn't look at anyone before, but Miss Ling has him completely under her thumb. If he has even a slight headache or fever, he tells her to rest and go home. I've never seen the president treat someone so meticulously. Miss Ling is really lucky!"

"Where is Miss Ling's office?"

"They're upstairs, but I don't know what's happened these days, neither the president nor she has come over!"

While playing, Jian Mujin heard the words "Miss Ling" and kicked the desk aside. "Miss Ling is Ling Yuexue? That bitch even has an office?"

The women in the office were instantly drawn to her. Was this woman crazy? How dare she call Ling Yuexue a slut?

"Are you out of your mind? Why are you shouting like that? You don't know who you are to call Ling Yuexue. Even when she's around, you should respectfully call her Sister Xue. She might be on her honeymoon with the CEO right now. When she gets back, who knows what she'll do to you!"

Jian Mujin, remembering how badly that bitch had wronged her, rushed upstairs in a fit of rage, shouting, "Her office is upstairs, right! I'll smash her place!"

The commotion drew everyone from all departments to come and see what was going on. When they saw Jian Mujin go upstairs, many employees followed her up. Since the president wasn't there, they figured it wouldn't hurt for them to watch the excitement!

Jian Mujin found Ling Yuexue's desk and proceeded to smash it, turning the once peaceful place into a complete mess.

Then, when she came down, many people avoided her.

On her third day working at Long's, Xi Xi called Jian Mujin, "What are you doing? Aren't you bored? You just sit there playing on your phone all day. If you could read even a little, you could kill time by reading novels in the office. Ugh, I'm reading a really angsty novel right now. The female lead has a scar on her face, which the male lead dislikes. Then the male lead uses tricks to kick her out of his house, but then she meets another rich and handsome man, and the two of them get together. When the male lead finds out, he regrets it so much that he's heartbroken and desperately tries to keep the female lead..."

"Bullshit! The idea that someone with a scar on their face would be interested in is pure nonsense. I only have a scar on my neck, and I've been on hundreds of blind dates without anyone wanting me. Don't waste your energy on that kind of nonsense!"

The voice was very rude, and people kept turning around to look at her with disgust. "With her looks, no wonder no one wants her. Everyone wants her, she's just a country bumpkin!"

A voice came from the other end of the phone, "What do you know? Can a pretty face conquer a man? What conquers a man is his temperament. If you had any temperament and taste, would you still be a bachelor?"

"Looking for someone with class and good taste is something rich people do. Poor men don't care about that. Forget it, forget it, there's no point in arguing with you. I'm going to come hang out with you!"

Jian Mujin tidied herself up and ran out. Someone kindly remarked, "It's not time to leave work yet!"

"What do you care what she does? Once she's caught, she'll be kicked out of the Long family!"

Before long, a wave of excitement swept through the Long family: The CEO is back!

All the female employees whispered among themselves. Although the president was not someone they could even dream of, it was still pleasing to the eye to look at him every day. They hadn't seen him for several months and really missed him.

Long Tingwei made a powerful return in a black suit, his unparalleled aura commanding everyone's attention.

I thought he would take the president's private elevator directly to the top floor, but he pressed the button for the 94th floor and inspected each floor one by one.

All the employees dared not breathe and sat obediently at their posts to work. A woman secretly glanced at Long Tingwei and found that he had become even more handsome after not seeing him for several months. She was momentarily captivated!

After wandering around for a while, Long Tingwei went up to the 95th floor. Seeing everyone working hard, Long Tingwei praised a few senior leaders.

Immediately afterwards, they went up to the 96th floor. Everyone received the message, and the atmosphere inside was tense and oppressive, with occasional hints of excitement.

Long Tingwei put his hands in his pockets and went up with a handsome and charming smile, fully expecting to see Jian Mujin, but he didn't find her at all when he went in.

Where did you go during work hours if you weren't at your post?

Long Tingwei scanned almost every corner, but still couldn't find anyone.

He walked casually to Jian Mujin's desk, tapped on it, and asked, "Where is she?"

Qi Siyu and several directors had been following behind Long Tingwei. When they heard him ask that question, they immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

"This...this...Miss Jane didn't say..."

The people in the office had long been dissatisfied with Jian Mujin. Someone started to speak up, "President, this female employee is really going too far. She's been here for two days and hasn't done any work. She's always playing games at work. I just overheard her on the phone saying she was going on a blind date or something..."

Before he could finish speaking, Long Tingwei slammed his fist on the table, making a deafening sound, and turned to Qi Siyu, saying, "She went out without asking you for leave? What are you good for? Call her back right now! If she doesn't show up in thirty minutes, you'll lose your performance bonus this month!"

Long Tingwei was furious. Everyone lowered their heads, but the women in the office exchanged gloating glances, waiting for the president to make trouble for that woman and preferably fire her!

Qi Siyu didn't dare to delay and immediately called Jian Mujin.

Long Tingwei called Qi Siyu out and said something, which Qi Siyu could only respond to with trepidation.

Jian Mujin was forced to return less than two hours after she left.

Long Tingwei waited for her in the corridor outside the design department.

Everyone was waiting to see how their CEO would fly into a rage and kick Jian Mujin out. When they saw Jian Mujin return with a lapdog-like expression, everyone sneered.

"Where did you go?" Long Tingwei's voice didn't show much anger; instead, it sounded rather calm.

But the calm before the storm is always there, and they were just waiting to see what would happen.
