Chapter 45: Tell the CEO not to bully Secretary Luo
Luo Zhiwei was still in a daze even when she went to work in the afternoon, but...
The two girls who came to see her this morning pulled her into some kind of gossip group. She hadn't paid any attention to it until now... when the group messages kept popping up.
Ding-ding, ding-ding...
Luo Zhiwei then curiously opened the group chat and found that she couldn't quite understand what they were discussing.
[Invincible Little Green Ivy: Did the CEO suddenly become merciful today? Why did he buy so much afternoon tea, especially spicy dried tofu and orange-flavored fruit candy? He bought so much!]
[Today is another busy day: I'm also very curious, it's all snacks. The CEO even had the administration prepare a lot of meat this time. I love Li Hei Ya's duck products the most.]
[President, Please Be Alone: This is highly suspicious. Has the president been possessed?]
[Wei Mingfeng: The president said he needs to try and win over the young ladies in our company, because you'll soon be good at making Secretary Luo happy.]
[I'm aiming for 3000 a month today: From now on, I'm Secretary Luo's biggest fan, I'll follow her every step of the way.]
[Qiuqiu Li: Secretary Luo is so cute, okay? Assistant Wei, could you talk to the president and ask him to stop bullying Secretary Luo all the time?]
Wei Mingfeng replied to Qiu Qiuli: If you're so capable, then go ahead.
Luo Zhiwei scrolled through all the chat history. She never expected that one day she would be at the center of public opinion.
My colleagues said... Lu Jingxiao bought spicy dried tofu and orange-flavored fruit candy. Why is that?
If she remembered correctly, the two girls that morning gave her spicy dried tofu and orange-flavored fruit candy.
So... is Lu Jingxiao making it up to her?
She's probably overthinking it.
There's no way Lu Jingxiao would actually apologize; she's overthinking it.
Just as she was looking at the chat history, several girls suddenly appeared at the elevator entrance, each holding a different kind of snack.
Some people even brought out a whole box of Li Heiya duck products, including duck wings, chicken wing tips, duck heads, and duck necks—a whole box full.
To Luo Zhiwei's astonishment, they placed the snacks they were carrying on her desk, along with a separate cup of milk tea.
"Secretary Luo, jasmine milk green tea, no ice and 30% sugar, specially ordered for you, please try it."
I wonder if Secretary Luo has tried it yet. Life without milk tea is incomplete.
Luo Zhiwei smiled knowingly, as if she understood something, but not quite: "Thank you."
She obediently took a sip of the milk tea, the subtle jasmine flavor bursting in her mouth. The sweet milk tea seemed to make everything seem wonderful.
She wanted to let out a sigh, disregarding her image.
However, it's not allowed at the company right now.
"Secretary Luo, please eat these snacks first. Let us know in the group chat when you're done, and we'll bring them up for you."
Luo Zhiwei's eyes brightened, and it was clear that she was truly moved.
"Thanks."
She thanked him sincerely.
One of the girls said casually, "Why thank us? It was all arranged by the president. We just went upstairs. If Secretary Luo wants to express her gratitude, she can thank the president."
Of course, they wouldn't dare, but... Secretary Luo might.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
As they chatted, Wei Mingfeng walked over from the elevator, carrying a plastic bag of snacks... and approached Luo Zhiwei step by step.
When Wei Mingfeng approached, he saw the snacks on Luo Zhiwei's table and wondered if he had arrived too late.
This... isn't appropriate.
"Assistant Wei, are all these snacks for Secretary Luo?"
Everyone's attention was focused on the plastic bag in Wei Mingfeng's hand... wait, it seems there are some snacks we didn't get to eat today.
They didn't even appear at the company's bar.
What's going on?
The group looked at the plastic bag, then turned their attention to Wei Mingfeng, seemingly wanting to hear an answer.
At this moment, Wei Mingfeng felt like he was a scumbag.
Wei Mingfeng: "......"
How should he explain this?
Perhaps it's better to tell the truth.
But... wouldn't Secretary Luo's position become awkward?
What should we do?
Wei Mingfeng's lips twitched incessantly. Someone, please save me.
Suddenly, the office door opened and Lu Jingxiao walked out. The girls who were standing in front of Luo Zhiwei immediately took several steps back when they saw Lu Jingxiao.
Damn it.
This is the president's office. They're chatting right outside the president's office. Doesn't that disturb the president?
What are you doing?
"us..."
Lu Jingxiao turned to look at Luo Zhiwei and saw that she was holding a milk tea, and there were snacks and... duck products on the table.
It seems that Weiwei is quite popular at the company, as everyone likes her so much.
"Mr. Lu, they're just here to deliver something to me, they'll be leaving soon."
Luo Zhiwei quickly tried to explain, as she didn't want her colleague to be reprimanded by Lu Jingxiao because of her.
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Can't he see it?
Or is he simply a petty and calculating person in Luo Zhiwei's eyes?
"President, we still have work to do, so we'll be leaving now."
The girls quickly evacuated.
Although they say that President Lu is a very good person, it doesn't mean they aren't afraid of him.
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
Is this an intention to leave her to face Lu Jingxiao alone?
But she couldn't face it calmly either.
Luo Zhiwei sat down somewhat guiltily and put all the snacks on the table into the drawer.
"Mr. Lu, that was just a minor incident, please don't mind it."
The implication is that since they've all left, you should leave too.
But Lu Jingxiao seemed not to understand her words: "Secretary Luo, look, as soon as you arrived, you attracted the attention of my company's employees, and they are not enthusiastic about working. How are you going to make it up to me?"
"What?"
What did you just say?
I didn't hear you clearly.
"I said, you have to make it up to me."
Luo Zhiwei: "......"
How can someone be so shameless?
Luo Zhiwei took a deep breath, as if making a major decision. She stood up and looked up slightly at the man in front of her: "Mr. Lu, I think I should distance myself from you. We are currently... just superior and subordinate. You are my boss, and I am your secretary, that's all..."
Why do you have to make things so difficult for her?
Lu Jingxiao's face immediately fell, and he didn't want to say a word to Luo Zhiwei.
"Mr. Lu, I hope..."
bite--
The elevator doors opened again.
What's wrong with the elevator today? The elevator doors keep opening.
However, the person who came was none other than Bai Yuxin.
Luo Zhiwei's heart skipped a beat.
She instantly composed herself and greeted Bai Yuxin professionally: "Miss Bai, it's been a long time."
As soon as Bai Yuxin saw that it was Luo Zhiwei, she pounced on her.
With a loud cry, she buried herself in her arms: "Sister Luo~~"
This pounce caught Luo Zhiwei completely off guard.
Shouldn't they have discovered the discord between her and Lu Jingxiao, and then stood on their high ground to question her?
The plot is going in a way that's a bit hard to understand.
"Bai Yuxin, who are you jumping into?"
Lu Jingxiao glared at Bai Yuxin through gritted teeth; this girl had a knack for infuriating people.
She even buried her face in his chest?
Depend on!
Lu Jingxiao raised his hand and grabbed Bai Yuxin, separating the two.
Bai Yuxin looked at Luo Zhiwei with red and swollen eyes, her mouth full of accusations: "Waaah, you men are all scumbags, scumbags!"
Lu Jingxiao: "..."
Is this attack aimed at me?
That can't be right.
Luo Zhiwei felt a little uneasy. Had Miss Bai discovered something? Should she explain? "Miss Bai..."
Bai Yuxin suddenly grabbed her hand, looking pitiful: "Sister Luo, can you stay with me for a day?"
