Once Zhou Shuya was out of sight, the assistant made no attempt to hide his worry.
To avoid trouble, Mingyao said first, "I will find an opportunity to thank my assistant later. Goodbye."
The assistant understood Mingyao's intention, nodded slightly, and turned to leave.
After walking a distance, Mingyao let out a breath, feeling much better.
Fortunately, her assistant arrived in time; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to put on such a show in front of him.
This is going to be tough for Zhou Shuya; in serious cases, she might even be fired.
As soon as she returned to the front desk, Ni An's cheers rang out, "Sister Su, you're amazing!"
Ni An excitedly threw herself into Ming Yao's arms, "The news that you managed to win over Boss Wang while you were having tea has spread throughout the company group chat. You're practically my idol!"
"That's an exaggeration, I was just lucky," she said modestly.
Ni An disagreed, pursing her lips and saying, "I'm just being modest. How come I didn't get the contract?"
Mingyao returned to her workstation and breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm lucky."
"Sister, just tell me the truth." Ni An shook Ming Yao's arm relentlessly, "How exactly did you manage to take down that scoundrel, Boss Wang?"
“There’s really no other way,” Mingyao sighed, took a sip of water before continuing, “If we just chat and make Mr. Wang happy, he’ll just agree to sign the contract, right?”
To some extent, she and Mr. Wang did indeed secure the contract through conversation.
Ni An frowned, staring intently at Ming Yao, not believing her words at all. "That old fox, Boss Wang, couldn't even handle Manager Zhang. How could you have taken him down so easily? It couldn't have just been a chat."
Chapter 29 Are you going to be ungrateful?
"Mr. Wang has always been interested in cooperating with President Pei, but he has been delaying it because he is not satisfied with the price."
"Can't I just lend a hand?"
"Really nothing happened?" Ni An asked suspiciously.
Mingyao said very clearly, "No."
Seeing that Mingyao was not telling the truth, Ni An pouted, snorted, and turned her head away, "It seems that my sister has never considered me a friend."
She had been worried that Mingyao would be groped by Boss Wang!
Are you angry?
Ni An turned away and ignored her; she was truly angry.
When Mingyao returned, she anticipated that Ni An would ask probing questions, so she planned to tell him a half-truth.
“Nothing really happened between me and Mr. Wang.”
Mingyao leaned close to Ni An's ear and said with lingering fear, "If something really happens, I'll become the laughingstock of the whole company."
"When Zhou Shuya took President Pei to the meeting room, I was helping Boss Wang wipe the water off his clothes. Zhou Shuya came up and said that I was having an affair with Boss Wang."
"Fortunately, Mr. Wang and I are completely innocent, which is why we escaped this disaster."
Ni An's mouth formed an "O" shape. "I thought President Pei went to the conference room, but I didn't expect..."
"How could that Zhou Bapi be so vicious?" Ni An gritted her teeth, thinking of Zhou Shuya's actions. "She actually tried to use my sister to gain benefits for herself! She's really insane!"
Where is she now?
Ni An rolled up her sleeves aggressively, as if she was about to settle scores with Zhou Shuya.
Mingyao thought for a moment, a smile flashing across her eyes, "She's in President Pei's office right now."
The CEO's office on the top floor.
Zhou Shuya clenched her fists, her heart pounding in her chest, each beat like a thunderclap exploding in her ears.
She was the only person in the huge office.
She stood in front of the desk, like a wooden stake.
The office's decor and furnishings are mainly in black, white, and gray, simple yet sophisticated and cold, just like Pei Siyu.
The office also has a floor-to-ceiling window that covers half a wall, and outside the window are rows of tall buildings.
Standing by the window, you can overlook the entire city and even see the distant green mountains hidden in the sea of clouds.
The office building of the Haichang branch is one of the tallest buildings in Haidu, and Pei Siyu's office is on the top floor, which is the best place to overlook the city of Haidu.
After finishing his official business, Pei Siyu would always look out into the distance through the floor-to-ceiling window.
Looking out the floor-to-ceiling window at the blue sky and tall buildings, Zhou Shuya was lost in thought. For a moment, she had the illusion that she was standing next to Pei Siyu.
The click of the door opening abruptly pulled Zhou Shuya back from her thoughts.
Her heart leaped into her throat. She lowered her head and stared nervously at the crack in the floor. Then, a pair of shiny crocodile leather shoes came into view.
As the man pushed open the office door, a gust of wind slipped in.
The wind carried the unique scent of pine emanating from Pei Siyu, along with a chilling coldness that seeped into the bones.
The office, which had been at a normal temperature just moments before, became icy cold after he entered.
From the walls and paintings to the desk, the small ornaments on the desk, and finally the floor, everything exudes a chilling aura.
Zhou Shuya pursed her lips into a thin line, and couldn't help but shiver. "President Pei, what do you want to see me about?"
She suppressed her trembling voice and asked, trying to sound calm.
She couldn't remain calm in front of Pei Siyu, and she couldn't even have a normal conversation.
Only by looking down and focusing on his toes or the cracks in the floor can he barely manage to have a conversation with him.
Pei Siyu walked straight past her without even glancing at her before sitting down in his office chair.
Zhou Shuya lowered her head even further, her heart pounding like a drum.
"You tell me yourself."
Pei Siyu's voice, sharp as ice, drifted over, seemingly floating in the air, yet also like an icicle piercing Zhou Shuya's ear.
Zhou Shuya felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured over her head, chilling her to the bone.
She pinched her fingers, her breath catching in her throat, "President Pei, I..."
