"So...?" Yan Zhi drawled out the last syllable.
"...So, you'd better stay here obediently." Lin Xi chuckled awkwardly. Otherwise, who would report to President Leng for her? Whenever she saw President Leng, she was like a mouse seeing a cat, unable to speak coherently, let alone report anything...
Yan Zhi immediately understood and smiled gently: "Little foodie, you're afraid that if I leave, no one will continue to report to President Leng for you, right?"
Huh? She figured it out. Was she that obvious?
"..." Lin Xi was taken aback. Her little thoughts had been seen through so clearly that she couldn't continue her story. She could only cough awkwardly to cover up her embarrassment.
Having no choice but to change tactics, Lin Xi threw herself into Yan Zhi's arms and rocked back and forth, her voice incredibly sweet: "Even if you don't care about the monk, you should care about the Buddha. Even if you don't care about the Buddha, you should care about me. If you leave, what will I do? I will miss you. I will miss you so much."
Lin Xi shook Yan Zhi so hard she almost got dizzy.
"Stop, stop, stop..." Yan Zhi tried to push Lin Xi away, but couldn't. Lin Xi, like a koala, hugged her even tighter.
Lin Xi shook her back and forth, making Yan Zhi almost dizzy, so she could only try to calm her down: "Okay, okay, I won't say goodbye for now, please let me go first, okay?"
"Really?" Lin Xi moved slightly away, blinking her innocent big eyes at her ╮(.???.)╭
"Hmm..." Yan Zhi nodded.
“Zhizhi is the best.” (●°u°●)」.
After saying that, Lin Xi hugged Yan Zhi again, as happy as a 200-pound fat man. She thought to herself, "It's still easier to play the emotional card. President Leng, I've left you with an excellent employee. You can't just fire me whenever you're unhappy!"
Yan Zhi, who was hugged by Lin Xi again, smiled helplessly: "I never knew I was so important!"
Lin Xi looked up at Yan Zhi with a serious expression: "You're not just important, you're absolutely crucial."
Yan Zhi smiled helplessly and patted Lin Xi on the back with a touch of affection: "Go back to work."
This heartwarming scene was witnessed by the cold-blooded CEO in his office. He couldn't see inside from the outside, but he could see everything clearly from his office. He could even see a mosquito flying past the glass window, if he wanted to.
He was so cold and fierce that he wanted to kill someone!
What exactly happened to that woman?
Doesn't she know who her husband is?
She was gentle and doting towards Lin Xi, but as stubborn as a rock in a latrine towards him, she was respectful on the surface but sharp-tongued and cold-hearted. She turned her head away, not wanting to look at them anymore.
His gaze inadvertently fell on the crumpled divorce agreement, and it was then that Leng Linli noticed Yan Zhi's neat handwritten name on it. If he had signed his name on it just now, the divorce agreement would have immediately become legally binding.
It was at this moment that Leng Linli realized that Yan Zhi had already pressed her fingerprint on her signed name.
She even left her fingerprints!
How long has she wanted a divorce?
A surge of anger welled up inside me, like a child about to be abandoned—a mix of sadness, frustration, and...panic.
A flood of emotions overwhelmed him, and Leng Linli couldn't quite sort them out. The next moment, he picked up the divorce papers and tore them into pieces.
He was the one who was set up. He hasn't even mentioned divorce yet, so why should she divorce him?
Want a divorce? Dream on!
Despite saying he didn't want to look at Yan Zhi anymore, his gaze unconsciously fell on her again.
If... if Yan Zhi could treat him the way she treats Secretary Lin, that would be wonderful!
Leng Linli was suddenly shocked by his own thoughts. When did he harbor such...pleading thoughts?
He's completely insane!
...In fact, she had done the same to herself before. At that time, she was extremely gentle, easygoing, and had a touch of spirituality. When she looked at him, her eyes were full of love.
But how could she change so suddenly, just one night after we got our marriage certificate?
At this moment, Leng Linli actually felt a little envious of Secretary Lin.
The fist slammed heavily on the desk, the force of which sent the pen bouncing off the surface before it fell back down due to gravity.
Leng Linli felt a surge of anger welling up inside him, with no way to vent it.
Looking at the divorce agreement that he had torn to pieces in the trash can, Leng Linli knew that tearing it up was not the best solution. Did he have to tear up every copy that Yan Zhi brought?
For a moment, Leng Linli was somewhat bewildered, but when he thought of Yan Zhi's original intention for marrying him, he was very angry!
The two secretaries who returned from the break room were somewhat confused when they saw Yan Zhi and Lin Xi hugging each other. After exchanging bewildered glances, Sang Lishu looked at them with disdain and said, "You two newcomers, are you huddling together for warmth?"
Are you a newbie?
Yan Zhi doesn't count.
If she hadn't quit her previous job, her qualifications would be far superior to Secretary Sang's. Yet, even after being belittled like this, Yan Zhi didn't show any anger and continued to smile casually.
Su Rao scoffed: "Secretary Lin, I know you fawn over her, but you don't have to go to such lengths."
Lin Xi raised an eyebrow, about to speak, when Yan Zhi stopped her. Yan Zhi smiled in a formulaic, professional way, her red lips slightly parted: "Secretary Sang, President Leng wants you to show him the drafted cooperation contract with Pei's Group."
Sang Lishu gave her a "Don't lie to me" look: "When did the president say that? How come I didn't know?"
Yan Zhi smiled faintly and replied gently, "Just now, when you were forming a team to go to the tea room, if Secretary Sang doesn't believe me, she can go and ask President Leng herself."
As she spoke, Yan Zhi politely waved her hand slightly in a gesture of invitation, her usual calm and composed smile radiating confidence.
Seeing Yan Zhi's calm demeanor, Sang Lishu figured she wouldn't dare lie to her, and immediately fell silent. She still had two clauses in the cooperation contract with Pei's Group that she hadn't finished reviewing, so how could she dare to go in and find President Leng now?
She had to finish quickly, or she would get scolded again. Getting scolded was a small matter; she had only slacked off for a short while, but it would be a big loss if it affected her image as an outstanding employee in the president's eyes. Sang Lishu returned to her workstation dejectedly.
Su Rao glanced at Sang Lishu with schadenfreude. Fortunately, her Zhou family cooperation project was already completed. Even if she had to submit it now, she could do so perfectly.
But the next second, Su Rao's smile vanished. Yan Zhi said, "Secretary Su, President Leng wants you to compile the financial statements for the past ten years for him before you leave work."
Su Rao checked the time; it was already 4:30 PM, half an hour before she had to leave work. With over a thousand employees in the company, even if she had three heads and six arms, she couldn't possibly compile nearly ten years' worth of financial statements in one night!
Regardless of whether she could finish organizing it or not, Su Rao had to get into work mode as soon as possible, doing as much as she could, and if all else failed, she'd resort to pleading and acting pitiful...
Then it suddenly occurred to her, but while the client might buy into this approach, her CEO wouldn't!
She was so worried, so worried she was about to die! Su Rao's face was full of sorrow, almost in despair.
Lin Xi looked up at Yan Zhi and asked softly, "When did the president come out to say that?"
