Chapter 16 The Noble Academy Substitute (16) You forced me to do this...
Chapter Sixteen
Xia Zhi planned to hide away for a few days, wanting to stay far away from them, so she simply blocked all their information and forced herself not to look at it.
However, since she was going to Jinhua for her internship today, she changed into a simple white shirt and black pants and hurriedly left.
She took a taxi to the company. In the real world, she was a college student about to graduate, so she had no work experience. She walked nervously to the company entrance, feeling a little uneasy because she didn't know who to look for.
She stood there until a woman in high heels walked over. "Are you Miss Xia?"
Xia Zhi nodded quickly and smiled, "Yes, my name is Xia Zhi."
The woman looked at Xia Zhi and said, "Come with me for a moment."
Xia Zhi nodded, then silently followed behind the woman. The two walked to the conference room, and the woman gently closed the door. The woman looked at her with a hint of curiosity in her eyes, "Just call me Sister Zhao. Our boss asked me to show you around the company first. I've already explained your position to you, right? You're an assistant in the General Affairs Department."
Xia Zhi nodded, "I know."
Sister Zhao said, "I'll show you your workstation. After that, your job will be some clerical work, and you'll also need to coordinate with various departments and make sure there's good communication."
Xia Zhi nodded again, "Okay."
Sister Zhao smiled and said, "Let's go then."
Xia Zhi nodded, turned, and walked out the door, ignoring Sister Zhao's strange gaze. President Xie had specifically instructed her not to interfere with Xia Zhi and to let her experience some hardship.
"Endure hardship? What kind of hardship?" Although Xie Yi was young, he had been exposed to these kinds of jobs since childhood and had some work experience. Coupled with his status and the support of Elder Xie, no one dared to underestimate him.
Xia Zhi walked out of the conference room, and Sister Zhao led her to her workstation.
Xia Zhi sat down gently, feeling that everything was new and exciting.
Although it was her first day, Sister Zhao still gave her some work to do. Xia Zhi was a little confused, "Am I... starting work on my first day?"
She specifically checked online and found that the workload on the first day is usually not too heavy.
Sister Zhao smiled and said, "No rush, take your time to familiarize yourself with it."
Xia Zhi could only nod, "Okay, okay."
She glanced down at the documents and began to organize them one by one.
After finally finishing everything, Xia Zhi subconsciously wanted to have lunch. She was told that there was a cafeteria on the fifth floor of the company. So she took the elevator to the cafeteria on the fifth floor. As soon as she got there, she heard a few people whispering.
"I heard that our new colleague went to the same school as General Manager Xie..."
"These two are probably not related, but I have a feeling there's something fishy going on."
"Keep your voice down! You're crazy to dare talk to President Xie like that!"
Xia Zhi listened to these words with a sense of helplessness. It seemed that no matter where she went in this world, people would always connect her with those three people.
Knowing they were all madly infatuated with her, Natsumi planned to stay far away from them until the story ended and she went to the next world.
Unlike school, a company is like an adult society. Just as Xia Zhi finished eating and was about to go back to rest, Sister Zhao assigned her a new task.
Sister Zhao smiled at her and said, "Go upstairs and deliver some documents to General Manager Xie."
Xia Zhi:
She hesitated for a moment, "Do I really have to deliver it?"
"Yes."
Xia Zhi could only accept the documents and then took the elevator to the rooftop. Soon, the elevator reached the rooftop, and Xia Zhi stepped out, hearing Xie Yi's voice; he seemed to be in a meeting.
Xia Zhi stood outside, somewhat dazed.
This is no longer a school; it has nothing to do with school anymore. However, one thing remains the same: Xie Yi is still a high-ranking person, and moreover, her boss.
Soon, she heard footsteps.
Several men in suits came out, and they were all a little curious when they saw Xia Zhi.
However, they didn't dare to look any longer and quickly left.
Xia Zhi saw Xie Yi. He was wearing a suit, tall and thin, but not skinny, and the suit fit him well. He was clearly more mature and imposing than he was at school.
He noticed the documents in Xia Zhi's hand, so he walked calmly into the conference room and said, "Come in."
Xia Zhi walked into the conference room, where her assistant was organizing documents. She looked at Xie Yi with a slightly confused expression.
It seemed like the first time she had ever seen such gratitude, and being a complete novice at work, she subconsciously trembled a little.
Xie Yi sat down gently in the main seat, staring at Xia Zhi, and then gestured for her assistant to leave.
Why aren't you sitting down?
Xie Yi said calmly.
Xia Zhi was a little nervous. "May I sit down?"
Xie Yi chuckled, "Sit down, it must be tiring for you to stand."
Xia Zhi found a seat and sat down, then looked at Xie Yi.
She handed over the documents, gradually calming down. "These are the documents Sister Zhao asked me to deliver to you."
Xie Yi didn't take it, but looked at Xia Zhi with a half-smile and said, "How's the familiarity going?"
Xia Zhi nodded, "It's alright."
She's lying; she simply can't handle it all! And those people are making things difficult for her!
Xie Yi looked at Xia Zhi thoughtfully, then suddenly leaned forward, lowered his voice, and said, "Zhi Zhi, didn't you see the text message I sent you?"
Xia Zhi realized she had blocked the other person, so she feigned innocence, feeling a little guilty, and said, "I didn't notice."
Xie Yi didn't speak, then suddenly a hand gently touched Xia Zhi's hair. Xia Zhi was startled and took a step back, scattering the documents in her hand.
Xie Yi watched with a gloomy look as she looked down to pick up the documents. She was dressed very beautifully today, with fair skin and a faint pinkish glow.
Xia Zhi picked up the documents, raised her eyes slightly, and met Xie Yi's possessive and lustful eyes.
She instinctively shrank back, "Mr. Xie, I put it here."
She was about to leave quickly when she realized that her assistant had locked the door.
Xia Zhi thought with a hint of despair that she had almost forgotten this was not the real world, but a novel world where everything revolved around romance and work was secondary.
Xie Yi looked at her and asked, "Zhizhi, do you know what unspoken rules are?"
Xia Zhi became a little nervous upon hearing this, "No, I don't know."
Xie Yi walked over, looked down at her, and then said, "Hold out your hand."
Xia Zhi found it a bit strange, but she did as she was told.
She subconsciously closed her eyes, but then heard Xie Yi's soft laughter, "Zhizhi, did someone bully you today? Wear this bracelet, and no one will dare to gossip about you."
Xia Zhi felt a slight stinging pain in her wrist, and she subconsciously opened her eyes wide to look at her wrist.
On her wrist was the same golden thorny chain from before, like a cage, locking her up tightly.
Xia Zhi: "You..."
Xie Yi smiled faintly, "This is a family heirloom, a gift for my wife. Zhizhi, tell me, isn't being a boss's wife much better than being a helpless intern?"
Xia Zhi stared at Xie Yi, feeling a little uncomfortable that he had revealed his true colors so easily.
She blurted out instinctively, "You...you planned this all along, didn't you!"
Xie Yi bent down and easily touched Xia Zhi's hair with one hand. He played with her hair, then gently and intimately approached her lips, whispering, "This isn't school anymore, Zhi Zhi."
Xia Zhi could feel Xie Yi's hand touching her waist, and she trembled slightly. This was the first time Xie Yi had been so close to her.
"Wow, this is so delicate, Zhizhi. This is the first time I've seen you dressed like this."
Xie Yi stared at Xia Zhi with almost greedy eyes, then lingered for a few moments on her flushed, ashamed face.
He stepped back slightly, raised his hand as usual, and shrugged innocently, "You forced me to do this."
Xia Zhi didn't dare say anything more, but lowered her voice and said angrily, "President Xie! There are surveillance cameras here, please have some self-respect!"
Xie Yi glanced at the monitor, then took another step back, looking at her with an ambiguous and lingering gaze, enjoying her embarrassment. He then smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you've given me the information. You can go now."
Xia Zhi tidied her disheveled clothes and hair, then prepared to leave.
But then Xie Yi spoke up leisurely, "Come to my office after get off work. See you after get off work."
Xia Zhi turned around and glared at him, but dared not refuse him.
If she refused him, even though they were at the company, she knew this was Xie Yi's territory, and she wouldn't dare to contradict him to his face.
So she gave a perfunctory "hmm".
Xie Yi smiled ambiguously and said, "I'll pick you up after get off work, Zhizhi."
