Chapter 13 Scheming and Spoiled Stepsister VS Cold Childhood Sweetheart Brother
The internship ended soon afterward. Among those who were retained as full-time employees, those who performed well during the internship were assigned to the company headquarters to continue working on project tasks.
Because of their connections, Jiang Zhiyi and Xu Qingran also joined the Fu Group headquarters.
"Qingran, what's wrong?" Although she had successfully become a full-time employee at headquarters, Xu Qingran still had a long face.
"Zhizhi, you have no idea! I just lost a bet with Xu Qingrang, and now I have to be his slave for a whole year. You have to comfort me! I'm so pitiful!"
"Haha, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, my darling Qingran!" Jiang Zhiyi laughed.
"Qingran, Zhiyi." Song Qiao stepped forward to greet him.
"Song Qiao, you're here too."
"Yes, my workstation is downstairs from yours. I came up to deliver a document."
"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. We'll chat sometime."
"Okay, goodbye then."
Xu Qingran did all the talking to Song Qiao, while Jiang Zhiyi just watched from the side.
"What's wrong, Zhizhi? I feel like you don't really like Song Qiao?"
As her best friend, Xu Qingran naturally noticed it.
"Is it that obvious?" Jiang Zhiyi smiled. "She likes Fu Xunzhou."
In the original storyline, the female supporting character accidentally discovered Song Qiao's feelings for Fu Xunzhou, and Fu Xunzhou also admired Song Qiao. Fearing that her position would be threatened, the female supporting character targeted Song Qiao in every way.
"What? Oh my god!" Xu Qingran was a little surprised, and she immediately grabbed Jiang Zhiyi's hand.
"My dear Zhizhi, I'll ignore her from now on. I'll always be on your side and protect your love!"
"It's not that exaggerated. So many people like him, do you expect me to deal with them all? Besides, they don't have any problems right now."
"Oh right, then I'll go and find out about that woman surnamed Ji from last time."
After thinking about it carefully, Xu Qingran felt that there shouldn't be any problem, after all, the gap was there.
One is a junior employee, and the other is the company's big boss. How could the two of them possibly be involved?
...
University A's faculty apartments.
"Teacher Wen, how have you been lately?"
Wen Chang was Song Qiao's teacher during her university years. Song Qiao participated in many competitions, and Wen Chang was always the team leader and mentor for each one.
By competing alongside him, Song Qiao learned a great deal and also won numerous honors.
Song Qiao was very grateful for the teacher's guidance and had always respected him. She recently heard that he had just undergone surgery, so she brought some nutritional supplements to visit him.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm much better now. Please stay for dinner later, and I'll ask your teacher's wife to cook some extra dishes." Wen Chang also liked this student very much.
"Okay, then I'll go to the kitchen to help my teacher's wife later."
"Ding-dong—" The doorbell rang.
Song Qiao heard this and ran to open the door: "Who is it?" She looked up and immediately saw Fu Xunzhou. Behind him were two secretaries carrying a lot of things.
She stood there, stunned: "Mr. Fu... Mr. Fu."
"Xunzhou is here?" Mrs. Wen stepped forward as well. "Come in quickly."
Wen Chang had once taught Fu Xunzhou, and this time, the doctor Wen Chang was operating on was arranged by someone contacted by Fu Xunzhou.
The group sat down on the sofa, and Song Qiao felt a little flustered, never expecting to run into them in such a setting.
"Song Qiao, what's wrong? Do you two know each other?" Wen Chang noticed Song Qiao's unusual behavior at a glance, and then he glanced at Fu Xunzhou.
“Miss Song works for the Fu family,” Fu Xunzhou explained.
"Haha, I see. I don't have any bosses or employees here, they're all my students. Song Qiao, don't be so reserved."
"Xunzhou, my student is quite good. Although she's not as good as you, she's still very excellent. If possible, you should take good care of her."
Wenchang naturally hoped that his students could help each other.
"Ms. Song is exceptionally capable and has performed very well in the company before."
"No, no, Mr. Fu, you flatter me." Song Qiao was still a little flustered.
"Xunzhou, why don't you stay for a meal before you leave?"
"No, Professor Wen. I have to go now. I'll come see you again next time." Fu Xunzhou got up to leave.
Wen Chang's legs were not very mobile, so his wife went to the kitchen to busy herself. "Song Qiao, go and see Xun Zhou off."
"Okay, sure."
At the door, Song Qiao's heart was pounding rapidly. She was so nervous that she could hardly breathe.
But she still decided to muster her courage and called out to him, "Mr. Fu..."
Fu Xunzhou stopped.
"Mr. Fu, thank you for your praise and recognition of me in front of Teacher Wen. I know I still have many shortcomings, but I will work harder in the future to do better."
Fu Xunzhou nodded. "Mm."
"Goodbye, Mr. Fu." Song Qiao smiled at him.
Fu Xunzhou didn't linger and strode away.
Watching the man's departing figure, a hint of determination appeared in Song Qiao's eyes.
She thought she could do it, and that it would be just like before, getting closer to him little by little.
Planning Department.
"The top three proposals with the highest number of votes will be retained, and the others will be merged into those three groups. You all need to be on your best for the next two days."
"The proposal will be submitted to the boss in two days. Whichever group's proposal is ultimately adopted will have their bonus doubled for the entire team this month."
Manager Liu directly promised to provide them with benefits.
"Alas, long live Sister Liu!"
Stop joking and get to work!
Song Qiao looked at the computer screen. She had revised this proposal countless times, and it had received the most votes during the voting just now.
She was confident that her proposal would win this time.
Two days later.
[Hey, is your phone broken? Why does your screen keep turning gray?]
When Tuantuan saw Jiang Zhiyi slacking off at her workstation playing on her phone for three hours, it hesitated to speak, but was very curious. In the end, it couldn't help but ask.
"..."
Jiang Zhiyi, who was playing a game, didn't want to say anything. It was all because her teammates were too bad!
"What is the male lead doing?" she changed the subject.
The male lead is working diligently; he expects to see your planning department's proposal in about half an hour.
"How do you know so much about what the male lead is going to do later? The plot doesn't go into that much detail." Jiang Zhiyi asked in confusion.
Although she had a plot manual, it only outlined the important plot points. She had to figure out the specifics of how things would unfold on her own.
[Because I saw that Assistant Zhang had just sent the proposal submitted by the planning department to the male lead's email. The male lead was in a meeting, which was expected to end in about half an hour.]
Tuantuan looked smug.
Jiang Zhiyi pondered for a moment, then secretly left her workstation.
She went straight to the top-floor office.
"Miss Jiang, you've arrived." Assistant Zhang, who was at the door, immediately went to greet her when he saw her come to the top floor, and greeted her very politely.
"Is Brother Xunzhou there?"
"President Fu is in a meeting in the conference room."
"Then I'll go inside and wait for him, okay?"
"Okay, Miss Jiang."
Assistant Zhang helped her open the door and then stood guard at the entrance.
After entering, Jiang Zhiyi sat directly in Fu Xunzhou's seat.
The computer on the table was on. She opened her email and found the proposal signed by Song Qiao.
