Chapter 332: Future

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Just as Yuan Shu was thinking about who to choose, Cheng Cheng ran in with an anxious expression and she even forgot to knock on the door. “President Yuan, Lin Xi is a little weird.”

Yuan Shu didn’t say anything and gestured for her to continue.

Cheng Cheng was a little embarrassed. In the end, she took out a bracelet in her hand. Although it was a very thin gold bracelet, it looked like it was well-designed and was probably worth a few thousand yuan.

She placed the bracelet on the table. “Just now, I went to deliver documents to Lin Xi and saw her talking to Li Zheng from the technical department. She seemed to have given Li Zheng a card… When she saw me, she hurriedly let Li Zheng leave first and even gave me this.”

Yuan Shu looked at the bracelet and asked, “She bribed you? What did she say to Li Zheng?”

Li Zheng was just a small employee in the technical department. He was unknown and his work ability was average. If not for the fact that he hadn’t made any mistakes after working in the company for so many years, he would have lost his footing long ago.

When she thought about how her being framed for leaking secrets might have something to do with this person, Yuan Shu smirked. Lin Xi was indeed impressive. In just a day, she already established connections in the company. The female lead in the book was like a harmless little rabbit, but it seemed that in this world, Lin Xi wasn’t like this.

“I didn’t hear the details clearly. She told me that she just wanted to see the work you were following up on. She even said…” Cheng Cheng hesitated, but when she met Shu Yuan’s gaze, she still mustered her courage and said, “She also said that President Shi asked her to take over your work. In the future, she will definitely be my leader and asked me to take care of her! I won’t take care of her! I’m your assistant, so I have nothing to do with her.”

She blushed and tried her best to explain, “A few colleagues passed by at that time and I didn’t want to waste time with her, so I accepted this bracelet. I’ll send it back to her later. I never thought of betraying you!”

Yuan Shu was a little surprised. Cheng Cheng hadn’t been with her for long and she hadn’t even given Cheng Cheng any important work, but she didn’t expect Cheng Cheng to be so loyal.

Yuan Shu deliberated over her words before saying, “Shi Xiao and I are divorced. Lin Xi is his savior.”

In other words, Lin Xi might very well replace her position. She had already decided to leave, so she didn’t want Cheng Cheng to risk her future.

“So what?” Cheng Cheng’s eyes suddenly turned red, but she sniffled and tried her best to not let her tears fall. “But I’ve decided that you’re my boss. In the past, I thought that you were Madam Shi, so I had no choice but to listen to you.”

“But I’ve been with you for so long. You’re capable and smart, and you treat your subordinates well. I admire you. You’re the one who should be the boss. I’m your assistant. I don’t care who Lin Xi is!”

Although Yuan Shu still had an indifferent expression, she felt a little comforted. In the past, when she led troops, she had also made the soldiers under her become loyal to her step by step. Once they decided on a commander, they would follow that commander for the rest of their lives. In Cheng Cheng’s eyes, Yuan Shu saw the same kind of loyalty.

Seeing that she was silent, Cheng Cheng thought that she didn’t believe her. She picked up the bracelet and said, “I’ll send it back to her now. I just didn’t want things to be too tense. Since she can interfere in the technical department, she might be up to something. Boss, you have to be careful.”

Unknowingly, she had changed the way she addressed Yuan Shu. In the past, she could only call her “Boss” inwardly, but now, she really had nothing to worry about. Cheng Cheng’s thoughts were very simple. She knew that Yuan Shu and Shi Xiao had divorced and might not continue working in the Shi Corporation, but so what? Worst case scenario, she could just quit.

“Aren’t you afraid that Lin Xi will make things difficult for you?” Yuan Shu said in a calm voice, “If you send the things back so rashly, it will prove your stance. When the time comes, if she says something in front of President Shi… It won’t be easy to find another good job like the one you have in the Shi Corporation.”

After coming to this world, Yuan Shu slowly learned about the influence of the Shi Corporation. To a 20-year-old girl like Cheng Cheng, the assistants of the Shi Corporation and other companies were very different.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Cheng was even more determined. She wiped her eyes hard before turning around and saying, “So what if she spouts nonsense? If President Shi is a man who’s willing to listen to his lover’s nonsense, he’s not a good leader and there will be no future for me if I follow him.”

She held her head high and said, “At most, I’ll resign. There’s no future working for a gullible man. I might as well follow you, Boss. I’ll send the bracelet back now.”

Yuan Shu suddenly smiled. Her smile was gentle and kind, giving Cheng Cheng’s heart a sense of warmth. Her next words made Cheng Cheng so excited that she was about to burst into tears.

“In that case, you can follow me..”
