George has done nothing all these years to get to where he is today. He's mostly been eating, drinking, and... well, you know. Once, in an attempt to boost the stock market, he announced that he would be making adult films. The TV ratings soared in a short time. The old man even tried to take the opportunity to reduce his stock holdings, but he ended up being fined by the Securities and Futures Commission and has become a laughing stock in the local market.
Lu Feng put down the phone, feeling that this Mr. George was quite easy to fool, and that delaying him for half a month should not be a problem at all.
Li Xiaosi pushed open the office door, poked half her body in, and asked, "That Sean is here. Should we call him in?"
Lu Feng looked up at her and noticed that she had become increasingly casual lately. Many people had reported that she was domineering in the company and sometimes even dared to argue with Manager Li when she was in a bad mood.
"You should knock before entering and wait for my reply before coming in. Do I have to teach you such a simple thing?" Lu Feng stared at her, his brows slightly furrowed, and said, "Do you think it looks good to lean half your body in?"
Li Xiaosi was slightly taken aback. She opened the door, walked in, closed it, and said somewhat unhappily, "Why are you yelling at me? If you don't want to knock, then don't knock. By the way, when can I be transferred to a branch in another country as a vice president or something? There are plenty of people who can fill the secretary position now."
"What did you say?" Lu Feng looked at her, displeased, and asked, "Transferring you to a branch office in another country as a vice president? What made you think of that? Do you have the ability? Your biggest advantage is bilingual translation, but do you have the ability to coordinate and plan?"
"I'm just a vice president, not the person in charge. Besides, as your girlfriend, can't I even ask for this much?" Li Xiaosi sensed Lu Feng's resistance and simply stated it bluntly.
"Girlfriend? Where did you get a girlfriend? I, Lu Feng, have been single for so many years and have never had a girlfriend!" Lu Feng looked at Li Xiaosi, who was somewhat dumbfounded, and said, "Recently, many people in the company have reported that your work has become worse and worse. You should reflect on this instead of fantasizing about becoming a branch vice president. You should first do your job well before you have a chance to move up."
Li Xiaosi was stunned on the spot. Looking at Lu Feng, who was losing control of his emotions, she said, "I'm not your girlfriend? How can you do this? I've already done *that* with you, how can you not take responsibility? I just want to be a vice president."
"It seems you don't understand our company culture at all. Relationships that involve sleeping together are only allowed in bed. Outside of bed, they're separate. Anyone who dares to develop nepotism into a company relationship will be taken down along with them. Besides, what makes you think you've made any sacrifices? Was it your initiative? Was it something you wanted?" Lu Feng lit a cigarette and looked at her, saying, "I was just helping someone out. How dare you try to gain fame and fortune from me?"
"You!! You!!!"
Li Xiaosi was so angry that her eyes turned black. She took a deep breath, her eyes already red, and said, "You're helping others? What do I see in you?"
"That's not right. I'm young, above average-looking, and the founder of a multinational corporation. Can you find another person like me in the world? Let me tell you something: looks are never a strong asset. They are an asset, but if you try to monetize them, you can only sell them at retail. When you try to package them up and sell them for an exorbitant price, you'll definitely get played. Keeping things in bed confined to the bedroom and making the world a little purer might be more educational for you," Lu Feng said in a deep voice.
Li Xiaosi could not accept this outcome.
“I still hope you get back to work. I hope you’re a smart woman. Smart people never rush to cash out, let alone seek high returns in the short term, because that’s unrealistic. Of course, cashing out hundreds of dollars in a minute doesn’t count!” Lu Feng said, staring at her.
Li Xiaosi, breathing heavily with anger, slammed the folder in her hand on the table and said, "You just wait!"
"Let Sean in!"
Li Xiaosi ignored him, opened the door and walked straight towards the elevator; she clearly wasn't planning on working today.
Those outside exchanged bewildered glances as Li Xiaosi strode away. Sean, also with a hint of gossip, glanced at Li Xiaosi's graceful figure, stood up, and walked into the office. He looked at Lu Feng and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, just a little girl trying to sell her youth."
