Chapter 16 Spiritual Compensation
Hearing this, Yun Jin lowered her head as a matter of course. This kind of thing would naturally be explained by someone else, so there was no need for her to say anything.
Sure enough, after hearing Mu Lingfeng's question, Ma Jianbo quickly spoke up to defend himself: "How is that possible? How could there be something we said that you couldn't listen to? Secretary Yun and I were just chatting just now."
"Oh, small talk, Jianbo, why didn't I realize before that you are good at small talk with others? It seems that I really underestimated you before."
After listening to Ma Jianbo's words, Mu Lingfeng nodded in sudden realization and responded.
Knowing that Mu Lingfeng was making fun of him, Ma Jianbo could only smile awkwardly. Whatever the boss said was the truth, and there was no way for him to say anything more.
"Jianbo, with your ability, you shouldn't be my assistant. You should be transferred to the Human Resources Department and be responsible for communicating with employees. This way you can give full play to your expertise."
Seeing Yun Jin lower her head and ignore him, Mu Lingfeng felt unhappy and continued to bombard Ma Jianbo.
Ma Jianbo didn't know how he had offended Mu Lingfeng and was thinking about how to respond. At this time, the waiter came in with the dishes, giving Ma Jianbo a way out.
"Mr. Mu, let me serve you a bowl of soup." After all the dishes were served, Ma Jianbo hurriedly served Mu Lingfeng a bowl of his favorite soup as an apology.
Although, Ma Jianbo still didn't understand why he made Mu Lingfeng unhappy.
After taking a look at the soup in front of him, Mu Lingfeng picked up the spoon and slowly drank it.
Seeing Mu Lingfeng drinking the soup, Ma Jianbo finally felt relieved.
As long as President Mu is willing to drink the soup he personally serves, it proves that President Mu is not really angry with him.
"Secretary Yun, this soup tastes good. It's President Mu's favorite. I'll serve you a bowl as well." While Mu Lingfeng was drinking the soup, Ma Jianbo enthusiastically served Yun Jin a bowl.
In order to prevent Yun Jin from giving up, Ma Jianbo decided to treat her nicer. He didn't want to go through the trouble of helping Mu Lingfeng select a new secretary.
As soon as Ma Jianbo finished speaking, Mu Lingfeng put the soup bowl in his hand on the table. There was a crisp "bang" sound, which scared Ma Jianbo and Yun Jin at the same time.
Ma Jianbo glanced at Mu Lingfeng, not understanding what was wrong with this gentleman. He was fine just now, why did he suddenly turn hostile?
At the same time, Yun Jin also glanced at Mu Lingfeng out of the corner of her eye, then turned her head to look at Ma Jianbo, as if asking him, are you sure you can get along with someone with such a strange temper?
The moment he met Yun Jin's eyes, Ma Jianbo seemed to understand a little bit why Mu Lingfeng suddenly lost his temper.
But, logically speaking, this shouldn't happen. With Mr. Mu's status, he has seen all kinds of beautiful women, so how could he fall in love with Secretary Yun at first sight?
Although Secretary Yun is indeed very beautiful, President Mu is not bad either, so he shouldn't be so easily tempted.
But if this is not the reason, how do we explain Mr. Mu’s abnormal behavior today?
With doubts in mind, Ma Jianbo ate the food on the table silently. While eating, he observed Mu Lingfeng's next move.
After putting the bowl down, Mu Lingfeng ate the food quietly without any abnormal behavior.
Maybe I'm overthinking it.
Until the end of the meal, Mu Lingfeng's attitude towards Yun Jin was the same as before in the company, nothing special. This made Ma Jianbo realize that his previous thoughts were wrong and Mu Lingfeng would never fall for Yun Jin.
After the meal, Ma Jianbo went to the front desk to pay the bill, and Yun Jin followed Mu Lingfeng out of the restaurant.
After walking out of the gate, Yunjin hurriedly started to hail a taxi, but after several cars passed by, there were people in them, so Yunjin had to open the taxi app.
Looking at the dozens of people waiting ahead on the software, Yun Jin felt dizzy. At this rate, it would be almost 12 o'clock when she got home.
After returning home, she still has to organize tonight's meeting notes. God, she might as well not sleep tonight.
Just as he was thinking, Yun Jin heard a horn beside him. He turned around and saw a Rolls-Royce parked in front of him. In the car, Mu Lingfeng rolled down the window and said, "Get in!"
Not wanting to go home too late, Yun Jin didn't act pretentiously and just opened the car door and got in.
"Send me back to Yunshang Huating first, and then send Secretary Yun home." Yun Jin had just sat down when she heard Mu Lingfeng instructing the driver, Uncle Zhang.
Uncle Zhang nodded and greeted Yunjin through the rearview mirror.
When Yun Jin met Uncle Zhang's gaze, she nodded slightly in response.
Watching the interaction between the two, Mu Lingfeng snorted coldly and closed his eyes.
It's so sarcastic and annoying.
Feeling that Mu Lingfeng's cold snort was directed at her, Yun Jin complained secretly in her heart.
The car quickly drove to Yunshang Huating. Only after Mu Lingfeng got out of the car and left did Yun Jin feel completely relaxed.
After giving his address, Uncle Zhang delivered Yunjin home within an hour.
After returning home, Yunjin quickly washed up and started to get busy.
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when I finished organizing the notes according to Mu Lingfeng's request.
After setting the alarm clock, Yun Jin fell on the bed, and in less than five minutes, she fell asleep.
It felt like I hadn't slept for long when the alarm started ringing.
Yun Jin turned off the alarm clock in a distracted manner, quickly got up from the bed, washed up, and went out.
Just like yesterday, Yun Jin first went to the Mu Mansion to get breakfast, and then went to Mu Lingfeng's apartment in Yunshang Huating.
Sitting in the car, Yun Jin almost couldn't help closing her eyes several times, but the thermos bucket that weighed heavily on her heart reminded her not to close her eyes, otherwise, she would spill the breakfast and she would not be able to report.
Yun Jin opened the door with the combination lock and went straight to the dining room just like yesterday morning.
Yun Jin thought that Mu Lingfeng must still be in the bedroom at this time.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she walked into the dining room, she saw Mu Lingfeng already sitting there, which scared Yun Jin, who was unprepared.
"Are you so afraid of me?" Looking at Yun Jin's reaction, Mu Lingfeng frowned and asked.
After that night, this woman felt scared every time she saw him, but she was relaxed when she was with other people. Am I really that scary in her heart?
Recalling how Yun Jin got along with others, Mu Lingfeng pondered secretly in his heart.
"No, I'm just a little surprised to see you here suddenly." Yun Jin shook his head and denied Mu Lingfeng's words.
Mu Lingfeng looked at Yun Jin with disbelief and did not continue to ask.
Seeing this, Yun Jin hurriedly took out breakfast and ate with Mu Lingfeng.
After finishing breakfast and packing up, Yun Jin went out with Mu Lingfeng.
Outside the door, Uncle Zhang had been waiting for a long time.
"Uncle Zhang, thank you!" Yun Jin handed the clean thermos bucket to Uncle Zhang, opened the car door and got in.
"Secretary Yun, your home is far away from here, so you must have gotten up very early in the morning." Uncle Zhang started the car and left. Thinking of sending Yun Jin home last night, Uncle Zhang asked with concern.
"Fortunately, the company reimburses my travel expenses. I always take a taxi when I come here, and I only get up an hour earlier than before." Knowing that Uncle Zhang cares about her, Yun Jin told the truth.
While the two were talking, they didn't notice that Mu Lingfeng had put down the documents in his hand and glanced at Yun Jin with an ambiguous look.
"It's good that the car expenses can be reimbursed." Uncle Zhang sighed after hearing Yun Jin say that.
"Yeah, it's indeed okay." Yun Jin echoed Uncle Zhang's words.
If the taxi fares could not be reimbursed, she would not agree to be the president's secretary. She would have to go out early and come back late every day, and pay for her own taxi fares. What was she trying to gain?
Even though her salary was indeed twice as much as before at the branch, her workload also increased accordingly, and she would have to sacrifice her freedom to eat.
The double salary is her spiritual compensation. How is it possible for her to use this money to pay for her daily taxi fares?
While the two were talking, the car had already arrived at the company parking lot.
Before getting off the car, Mu Lingfeng received a phone call, and as soon as the car stopped, he left in a hurry.
"Secretary Yun, with you by the young master's side, the old lady should feel relieved now." After Mu Lingfeng left, Uncle Zhang looked back at Yun Jin and spoke with emotion.
