Chapter 170 Who are you to ride in my car?
Yan Tingnan's temples throbbed again.
The strange pull seemed to be intensifying, trying to draw his attention to the woman before him and soften his tone.
His knuckles tightened suddenly.
He suddenly laughed, a mocking laugh.
"The chairman assigned you to be his daily affairs assistant because he thinks you have some special value."
Mu Chuji's pupils suddenly contracted. Although she tried her best to hide it, the momentary panic did not escape Yan Tingnan's eyes.
"I don't understand what President Yan means."
Mu Chuji vehemently denied it.
"I just want a job."
"very good."
Yan Tingnan pointed to a stack of documents, about half a person's height, on the corner of the table.
"Since you want to work, then I'll give you a job."
"By today, re-categorize and organize these overseas project reports by country, quarter, and profit/loss rate, and send me the electronic version simultaneously."
Mu Chuji looked at the mountain of documents that was enough to drive anyone crazy, and her face turned ashen.
"President Yan, today might be..."
"What could it be?"
Yan Tingnan raised an eyebrow, her eyes dangerous.
"Can't do it? You can go to the HR department to resign right now."
He smiled slightly and added.
"Or, you could ask the chairman to step in and tell me what makes you special that makes me want to make an exception for you?"
Mu Chuji was speechless.
She knew this was a show of force, a test.
She can't back down; if she does, all her previous efforts will be in vain.
"I can do it."
She bit her lower lip, her face stubborn.
"go out."
Yan Tingnan looked away and picked up her pen again.
Mu Chuji looked at the mountain of documents with a gloomy expression.
Mustering my courage, I spoke again.
"President Yan, regarding the report format..."
"You need to ask me this kind of question?"
Yan Tingnan's voice was so cold it felt like ice crystals.
"If you need your boss to teach you even the most basic professional skills, then I suggest you reconsider your career plan."
Mu Chuji's lips twitched.
This man is completely impervious to reason!
"President Yan, I understand what you mean."
She took a breath.
"I will familiarize myself with the process as soon as possible and make sure the sorting is completed today."
To retreat in order to advance.
This demonstrates obedience, provides a possible way out, and avoids appearing incompetent.
She picked up the heavy stack of documents, turned around, and walked towards the door.
As my hand touched the doorknob, the man's cold voice came from behind me again.
"etc."
Mu Chuji's heart skipped a beat, and she turned around expectantly.
But Yan Tingnan didn't even look up, only adding a casual remark.
"If you spill coffee on yourself next time you can't hold it properly, that'll be considered a work injury."
"It got splashed on me..."
He paused.
"I'll make sure you never lift a cup again in your entire life."
"..."
Mu Chuji felt a lump in her throat.
That's incredibly hurtful!
Yan Tingnan picked up a new document and stopped looking at her.
"go out."
Mu Chuji didn't say anything more and left with the documents in her arms.
The door closed.
Yan Tingnan took off his glasses, threw them on the table, and rubbed his stinging temples.
Resisting that damned thing, in just that one moment of tug-of-war, took more mental effort than dealing with the most difficult merger and acquisition case.
The power of this plot is truly bizarre.
It wasn't just a simple temptation of beauty; it was more like a virus that forcibly distorted his will and emotions.
But he can hold on.
We must hold on.
He picked up his phone and opened the pinned chat window.
Honey, I need a deep recharge tonight.
[Schedule for any time you wish.]
A few seconds later, Su Ruan replied.
[Low battery on first day back at work?]
[Cat with hands on hips.jpg]
It seems that President Yan's stamina isn't so great after leaving his wife.
Yan Tingnan looked at the kitten emoji on the screen and smiled.
[Yes, the battery is severely depleted.]
What time are you coming home tonight? I'll pick you up.
Su Ruan's message quickly popped up.
【I'm afraid it won't work tonight, Teacher Yan~】
I have a last-minute meeting with an overseas client in Nebula, so I expect I'll be back a little late.
Nebula?
A subtle undercurrent swirled in Yan Tingnan's eyes.
He remembered that place very clearly.
It was the prelude to Ruan Ruan and Yan Yunye's complete break, and also the starting point for her first initiative to approach him.
Yan Tingnan's thoughts shifted slightly, and an idea suddenly ignited like a firefly in the dark night.
Perfect.
Since we have nothing to do tonight, we might as well take this opportunity to tidy up the newly grown weeds.
He pressed the intercom, his voice returning to its usual cold tone.
"Jinghuai".
"Let's make an appointment with Mr. Chen Jinming. It's Nebula tonight, I'll treat him to dinner."
"Let's talk about new solutions for port logistics in Southeast Asia."
Jing Huai paused briefly on the other end of the phone, then immediately understood.
"Understood, Mr. Yan."
"Have the new assistant, Mu, follow along."
Yan Tingnan's gaze swept across the gray sky outside the window, his tone casual.
"Let's see how Qingyan negotiates her business deals."
"That way, she can integrate into the environment as soon as possible."
Jing Huai understood immediately: "Yes, I will arrange it."
The call ended.
Yan Tingnan stroked the wedding ring on her ring finger, a cold, playful glint in her eyes.
Chen Jinming was a notorious womanizer, skilled in debauchery and using dirty tricks, but he controlled several key shipping routes.
If Mu Chuji were sensible, she would understand tonight that the price she would have to pay to cling to the Yan family is far beyond what she can bear.
If you're not discerning enough to know your place, and insist on getting involved with other people's couples without any clear understanding of the situation.
Then don't blame him; clear it out, water and mud alike.
Then, he picked up his phone and replied to Su Ruan's message.
Drink less, and let me know before you finish.
[Okay, honey~ Don't worry, it's just a business matter]
Yan Tingnan looked at the word "husband" on the screen, and the frost in her eyes melted a little.
...
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Mu Chuji, carrying the organized documents, knocked on the door of the president's office again.
"President Yan, all the documents you requested have been prepared."
"The electronic version has been sent to your email address."
Mu Chuji felt a surge of smugness.
Hmph, Yan Tingnan, you think this little thing can stump me?
Unfortunately, I have a cheat code.
With the system's support, she is the most capable assistant.
Yan Tingnan looked up and glanced at the neatly organized folder in her hand.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but it was quickly covered by indifference.
He opened his email, quickly browsed through it, and found it truly impeccable.
It is exceptionally efficient.
"Um."
He released the mouse, his tone distant.
"7 PM tonight, Nebula Canglan VIP room, be there on time."
"Yes, Mr. Yan!"
Are we going in the same car?
Mu Chuji tentatively asked, wanting to create a space for them to be alone.
Yan Tingnan raised her eyes, her gaze sweeping over her with a cold intensity.
"Who are you to ride in my car?"
One sentence shattered all her hopes and dreams.
Mu Chuji choked.
"I……"
"go out."
She took a deep breath. It's okay.
Arrogant! Harsh!
Stop pretending to be indifferent!
In the original story, he should have become curious about himself by now!
It must be that Su Ruan, that variable, who affected the plot...
It's okay, tonight in Nebula, she'll definitely get the story back on track!
She silently encouraged herself, bowed, and withdrew.
Yan Tingnan watched her departing figure and sneered inwardly.
Mu Chuji.
Tonight, let me see just how capable you and that tattered book behind you really are.
...
7 PM, Nebula.
Su Ruan and Lin Yiyao had just stepped out of the elevator and were heading to their reserved private room.
"Yaoyao, the details of this collaboration with the F country brand still need to be finalized..."
Before Su Ruan finished speaking, her gaze inadvertently drifted to the other end of the corridor.
His steps faltered slightly.
Not far away, a tall and familiar figure pushed open the heavy door of the Canglan Hall.
It is Yan Tingnan.
Behind him followed a young girl with a pure and innocent appearance, dressed in an elegant dress.
The girl had her head down, her profile was soft, and she looked innocent and naive.
Su Ruan had never seen her before.
Lin Yiyao also saw it, her expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously looked at Su Ruan.
Su Ruan narrowed her eyes and gently nudged Lin Yiyao with her elbow.
"Hey, Yao Yao, did I just see things?"
"Isn't that my husband who went into the private room with that pretty young woman?"
