Chapter 55 My host is not someone he can insult.
Next, Wen Yao officially became Fu Jinzhi's personal secretary, the kind who wielded immense power and influence.
Specifically, she would chat while the boss was in a meeting, get into the car when the boss opened the door, and turn the table when the boss was serving food.
At 10 a.m., Fu Jinzhi went to a meeting again, while Wen Yao occupied his large office chair, eating sunflower seeds and watching a comedy.
8848 also joined her, occasionally letting out a mechanical giggle.
"8848, why hasn't the storyline triggered yet? We've been here for two weeks." Wen Yao suddenly remembered the mission that hadn't moved in a long time.
[I don't know, it'll trigger sooner or later. Hehehe, this human is so stupid, hehehehehehe...]
Very well, even 8848's dedication has been corrupted.
8848 used to love watching movies this much, but after working for a week, it finds everything interesting—except for work, of course.
After watching the two-hour movie, Wen Yao was thirsty from eating sunflower seeds and had also finished drinking the water next to her.
Feeling embarrassed to have her secretary serve her tea and water when she was not busy, Wen Yao thought for two seconds and decided to go to the tea room herself.
The tea room was very close to the reception room. When Wen Yao passed by, the main door of the reception room was wide open, and she glanced at it casually.
Oh, it's someone I know.
Isn't that President Gu Shaohong, who was dancing with her?
Just as Wen Yao was hesitating whether to greet him, the secretary who had finished serving tea to Gu Shaohong turned around and came out.
Upon seeing Wen Yao, the secretary, dressed in an elite style, transformed her professional smile into a radiant one: "Secretary Wen, what brings you here?"
"If you need anything, just call us on the internal line."
Wen Yao smiled and said, "I just happened to be passing by and saw President Gu, so I wanted to go up and say hello."
"Secretary Qin, you can go ahead and do your work. Don't worry about me."
"Okay." Secretary Qin left through the door with a radiant smile.
Now that things have come to this point, it wouldn't be appropriate not to say hello. Wen Yao waved to Gu Shaohong with a hearty laugh: "President Gu, it's been a long time."
From the moment Gu Shaohong saw Wen Yao at the door, he felt a dull ache in his feet.
When Gu Shaohong heard Secretary Qin address her as "Secretary Wen" and saw her in a business suit, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Sure enough, all that pretense of a loving couple, Fu Jinzhi and Wen Yao's relationship is nothing more than that.
They appear to be a loving couple, but in reality, they refuse to give each other any real power.
Tsk, a secretary? Not even an assistant. They don't have the authority to handle business.
In that case, perhaps he could take advantage of the situation and make use of Wen Yao.
Gu Shaohong composed himself and put on a refined and amiable smile: "Mrs. Fu is now holding a high position at the Fu Corporation? Truly, when husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can break gold!"
"This guy's talk is so cheesy," Wen Yao pouted. "Just any job."
Taking in Wen Yao's expression, Gu Shaohong became even more confident in his judgment, believing that Wen Yao was dissatisfied with her position.
"Where? From the first moment I saw Mrs. Fu, I knew you were a talented person, no less than Mr. Fu."
"Huh?" Wen Yao's eyes widened, and she didn't know how to reply for a moment, so she forced a stiff smile.
Good heavens, is Gu Shaohong blind? She doesn't even know that her talent is no less than Fu Jinzhi's.
Alright, alright, with your eye for business, no wonder you got crushed by Fu Jinzhi in the business war.
"Ah, surprised? Touched?" Gu Shaohong appreciatively watched Wen Yao's surprised expression.
He scoffed; women are just women, driven by emotions and easily moved.
In fact, Wen Yao was not moved at all; she only felt from the bottom of her heart that Gu Shaohong should become fellow patients with An Rourou.
"8848, I knew this world was a giant mental hospital."
As expected of a melodramatic novel world, everyone has their own ailments. Compared to these people, she, with her sharp tongue, is practically a normal person.
Gu Shaohong pressed on: "I wonder what kind of work Mrs. Fu does now?"
What kind of work do you do? Gu Shaohong really doesn't know how to have a conversation!
Wen Yao looked somewhat embarrassed. She had been slacking off all day long and occasionally even bossed Fu Jinzhi around. Was this something she could say?
Wen Yao: "Uh, just some miscellaneous tasks like organizing documents and writing some summary reports."
She picked at her toes; she hadn't done any of the things mentioned above.
Gu Shaohong slammed his hand on the table, his face full of indignation: "How could Fu Jinzhi treat you like this?!"
Startled by the loud noise, Wen Yao's forehead throbbed: A purebred madman!
Avoiding Gu Shaohong's outstretched hand that tried to grab her, Wen Yao's face turned cold: "What is Mr. Gu trying to do?"
He was still pretending to be strong, and Gu Shaohong sneered inwardly, but his face was full of pity:
"I just feel that a woman like Mrs. Fu shouldn't be treated so lightly. If it were me, I would never bear to let you..."
"I'm sorry, I offended you." Gu Shaohong tilted his head back and closed his eyes in a pretentious manner. "I couldn't help myself for a moment."
Ahhh, it's hard, my fist is hard!
Wen Yao felt nauseous, as if she had been given two spoonfuls of frozen lard, which was both greasy and fishy.
She stood up as if to pour tea for Gu Shaohong, but the moment she raised the teapot, she smashed it hard on his head.
Gu Shaohong clutched his forehead in astonishment and cried out in pain, only to see Wen Yao force a fake smile, her voice sweet and cloying:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I also couldn't help myself."
"You!" Gu Shaohong wanted to lose his temper, but this was the Fu Group, Fu Jinzhi's territory, and he couldn't get the better of him.
Gu Shaohong glared at Wen Yao and stood up angrily. He had come to meet Fu Jinzhi today, but Fu Jinzhi had not shown up and had sent Wen Yao to annoy him.
Looks like there's no need to wait any longer; this couple is just conspiring to trick him again!
Gu Shaohong was furious. His leather shoes made a harsh sound on the floor. As he pushed open the door, he spat out a curse in a low voice: "You ungrateful bitch!"
Wen Yao, who had been enhanced by the system, heard everything clearly. She sneered, realizing that there really were people who thought they were living too long.
Before she could do anything, Gu Shaohong suddenly fell heavily to his knees, sliding all the way to Secretary Qin, who was about to bring over the fruit platter.
"Pfft, hahaha~" Wen Yao couldn't hold back any longer and said loudly, "President Gu, there's no need for such a grand gesture."
Gu Shaohong struggled to his feet, his face ashen.
Secretary Qin, standing nearby, exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god, Mr. Gu, are you alright? There's nothing here to cover you, how did you fall?"
"Can you get up? Are you hurt?"
She sounded concerned, but in reality, she stood straight beside him holding the fruit platter, not offering a helping hand at all; all she did was talk.
"It's nothing!" Gu Shaohong glanced around. He clearly felt something trip him up, but there were no obstacles around him.
As more and more people looked over, Gu Shaohong lost face and continued walking out as if nothing had happened. He had only taken a dozen steps when he tripped and fell on flat ground.
This time, Wen Yao noticed something amiss: "8848?"
"Yes, it's me." 8848's mechanical voice carried a hint of arrogance.
[My host is not someone he has the right to insult.]
Even though the headquarters was constantly annoyed by Wen Yao and its data was in disarray, it had never uttered such harsh words.
Wen Yao was suddenly moved. Just as she was about to say something, the system broadcast sounded.
The unified leadership has fallen into a state of stagnation.
