Chapter 48 Distant Relatives (×) Distant Husband (√)
"But I also have one request."
“I only work at Fu’s,” Wen Yao thought for a moment and added, “headquarters.”
Fu Jinzhi usually only works at headquarters, so it would be pointless for her to go to a branch office.
Fu Jinzhi's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was unmistakably teasing:
"Is this Mrs. Fu's new way of checking up on people?"
"Then I'll have to think about it carefully."
Wen Yao gave a forced smile and kicked Fu Jinzhi away.
"What are you considering? Am I option E, plan B, or your spare button for your suit?"
"Oh, of course not." Fu Jinzhi laughed and dodged, his tone joking but a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes. "You are the only option."
In the end, Wen Yao still went to work.
Early in the morning, she sat listlessly in the back seat of Fu Jinzhi's car, not saying a word.
Fu Jinzhi found it amusing. "Didn't you say you wanted to come work at the company? Why are you so unwilling?"
Wen Yao glanced at him indifferently and curled herself up even tighter.
What does Fu Jinzhi know? She was forced to "voluntarily" go to work.
She would never go to work if she wasn't afraid of missing important plot points.
"Okay, you can go to work for a few days to appease Dad, and then I'll find a way to get you back, okay?"
Fu Jinzhi considers himself a workaholic, but he never thought that he should make his wife love her job as well.
After all, his mother, Madam Fu, had never had a proper job; her daily work consisted mainly of social activities.
For example, joining a charitable foundation, showcasing one's taste at art exhibitions, and expanding one's social circle by attending various banquets and networking with celebrities...
Fu Jinzhi is arrogant at heart. He believes he doesn't need "wife socializing" to be invincible in the business world.
But Wen Yao not only rarely socializes, but also doesn't seem to have any hobbies or interests, and she's no longer enthusiastic about drawing...
He often stays in his bedroom all day, only going out to eat.
He worried that if this continued, Wen Yao would develop psychological problems.
Fortunately, Wen Yao was unaware of his thoughts, otherwise she might have been so angry that she would have started cursing.
She does have some psychological issues, but they have absolutely nothing to do with these days of eating, drinking, and having fun.
Chun Chun is the result of having seen the coldness and warmth of the world and having endured many hardships.
But Wen Yao didn't know that she slowly sat up and said, "You can't go back on your word."
"When I can't stay any longer, you have to bail me out."
"no problem."
Upon arriving at the underground parking garage, Fu Jinzhi and Wen Yao split up into two groups.
This was Wen Yao's suggestion; she didn't want her relationship with Fu Jinzhi to cause too much of a stir within the Fu Group.
Once the president's wife's identity is exposed, she will inevitably be watched like a monkey.
The person who came out to greet Wen Yao was someone she knew somewhat; this assistant had taken Wen Yao to her father's birthday banquet before.
"Assistant Yao, we meet again." Wen Yao raised her hand to greet her.
"Madam," Yao's assistant, Yao Yan, greeted her warmly as well.
Assistant Du leaked the exam questions to them before, and President Fu and his wife have a very good relationship now.
If you please Wen Yao, is a promotion and a raise far away?
The Fu Group headquarters is an entire building with 88 floors, where most of the Fu Group's core project teams are located.
Fu Jinzhi took Wen Yao's first job very seriously.
Considering she was an art student, she was specially assigned to Rongguang, the game studio recently supported by the Fu family.
I'm going to work as an intern concept artist.
As Wen Yao listened attentively to Assistant Yao's enthusiastic introduction of her work, her complexion visibly worsened.
8848 also broke down, remembering the fear of being dominated by Wen Yao's painting skills.
[Perhaps Fu Jinzhi is not suitable for the host; he doesn't understand you at all!] The mechanical voice revealed a sense of sorrow.
It's worth noting that 8848 has always been a staunch supporter of the Fu Jinzhi and Wen Yao pairing, dedicated to making them a couple.
The fact that she's now tearing apart the CP (couple pairing) is enough to prove how bad Wen Yao is at drawing.
It wasn't just Wen Yao and 8848 who were on high alert; her soon-to-be new colleagues were also buzzing with discussion.
"Sister Hua, didn't you say before that our department was already at full capacity?"
"Yeah, another new person has arrived."
...
Colleagues were filled with anxiety; the workplace is like a battlefield, where one person's rise means another's fall.
The Rongguang Studio job is not only well-paid, but it also belongs to the Fu Group, which is prestigious. Nobody wants to suddenly lose their job.
"We can't move your positions, so just focus on your work and stop worrying about other things."
Sister Hua is the manager of the art department. Even if she knows something, she can't say it openly; she can only hint at it.
The chief artist, Lao Wu, was her longtime partner. While the staff went to work, he quietly pulled Sister Hua aside.
"What's the background of this newcomer?"
As a key project department, Rongguang Studio never accepts any recent graduates as interns.
"I don't know." Sister Hua shook her head, lowered her voice, and looked inscrutable. "But she definitely has powerful backers."
"This position is tailor-made for newcomers, and their personnel files are not in our department."
"In short, just don't provoke us, as they won't infringe on our interests."
Old Wu nodded repeatedly, already classifying the newcomers as princelings experiencing life.
Fearing that uninformed staff might cause trouble, they secretly held a small meeting within the department.
Now everyone knows that the newcomer is a relative with powerful connections who came to experience life.
So when Wen Yao entered the office, she was greeted with a warm welcome.
Wen Yao was starting to feel a little uncomfortable.
The experienced employee assigned to help her get familiar with the work was a round-faced young woman named Xiao Yuan.
When Wen Yao was completely clueless about the workflow of an original artist, he showed no impatience whatsoever and remained smiling throughout.
"Did Fu Jinzhi do something unnecessary?" Wen Yao felt uneasy.
【Do you even need to ask? You don't think you're very likable, do you?】8848's sarcastic remarks.
Wen Yao rarely forgave its great disrespect.
After all, she knew nothing about painting, and whenever she had work, she needed 8848 to take over.
Requires on-call availability, no monthly salary, no holidays, no social insurance or housing fund...
Who wouldn't be driven crazy in this situation? 8848 is already being very patient.
In theory, Wen Yao, as an intern, should be doing odd jobs in the office, such as printing, delivering documents, assisting senior employees, and running errands.
But given her connections, no one dared to boss her around.
“She’s not arrogant at all.” Xiao Yuan chatted quietly with her friend. “I taught her how to use a few work software programs, and she has been practicing diligently ever since, making rapid progress.”
"I went from knowing absolutely nothing to being proficient in no time."
"Did you ask her about her backstage connections?" the girl asked, genuinely curious.
Xiao Yuan: "How could I possibly ask that?"
"Didn't you say she's easy to get along with?" her girlfriend urged.
"Let's forget about it..." Xiao Yuan said, but she was also itching with curiosity.
After thinking about it, she couldn't resist and went to the tea room to get a cup of coffee to take to Wen Yao.
"Thank you," Wen Yao said, smiling, which softened her otherwise somewhat aggressive beauty.
Xiao Yuan felt more confident, and she leaned closer to Wen Yao and whispered, "Do you have a relative who is a high-ranking executive in the group?"
Wen Yao felt a little helpless, knowing that there was no point in denying it. "Yes, I have a distant relative."
He's just a distant husband.
