Chapter 22 I Don’t Believe He’s an Employee

“Do you like him?” Qiao Sisi said jokingly.

Lin Ya glared at her, pursing her lips. “How is that possible? I know my limits. He looks like a rich kid. Me? Forget it.”

Ye Chen’s image pretty much reveals his identity. He’s a rich man’s son. It’s fine getting acquainted with him, but let’s forget about getting to know each other better.

We are of different statuses, so there’s no need to force ourselves to get into a relationship.

“Oh, I must be mistaken.” Qiao Sisi smiled. After they chatted and teased each other for a while, she turned her head and looked at the scenery outside the window.

A few minutes later, their car arrived at Wind City Company.

The junior assistant took the lead and the group entered the company.

Other than the junior assistant who came with a mission, the others were all sent to the waiting room. There were snacks and tea on the table inside.

One of the colleagues sat on the sofa and asked curiously, “Didn’t Assistant Li ask us to come here to learn and interact with each other? There’s no one here.”

Hearing this, Lin Ya said, “Let’s wait a little longer.”

The people from Jinyu Company were all sitting in the waiting room. Qiao Sisi sat for a while before taking out her phone.

There were many missed calls as her phone was put on silent mode. The calls were all from the same person—Chen Anna.

When she flipped to the bottom, a look of surprise appeared in Qiao Sisi’s eyes.

This is… Zheng Zeyi? Qiao Sisi looked in disbelief. Zheng Zeyi’s phone number was actually on her missed call list. Isn’t this strange?

After some hesitation, Qiao Sisi said something to Lin Ya before walking out of the waiting room.

The corridor outside was empty and quiet. Qiao Sisi found a corner and dialed Chen Anna’s number.

“Hello? Sisi! You’ve finally called me. You have no idea how many times I’ve called you.” As soon as the call was picked up, Chen Anna’s anxious voice came from the other end.

Qiao Sisi said apologetically, “I muted my phone and forgot to turn it off.”

“How are you doing in Yunqi? Is your work going well?” Chen Anna asked.

“Work is alright. The scenery here in Yunqi is especially good…”

Qiao Sisi and Chen Anna began to talk about work-related matters for a long time. As they were talking very loudly, Qiao Sisi did not notice that someone was standing behind her.

After chatting for a while, she realized that something was wrong.

Qiao Sisi turned around and saw a tall figure and a familiar handsome face.

“Ye Chen?” Qiao Sisi called out in surprise.

She was really surprised. This was Wind City Company. She did not expect Ye Chen to be here.

Moreover, after meeting him yesterday, Qiao Sisi felt that they would probably not meet again because this business trip would only last a few days.

As it turned out, they met again the next day after saying goodbye.

Chen Anna was a little stunned. She did not know what happened to Qiao Sisi and asked, “Sisi, what’s going on over there? Who’s Ye Chen?”

Even without the hands-free speaker mode, she was so loud that one could vaguely hear the content of the conversation .

“I’ll tell you later!” Qiao Sisi smiled awkwardly and hung up mercilessly.

Chen Anna, who was far away in H City, stared at the phone that had been hung up and looked up exasperatedly. This is the result of befriending a bad friend, she thought.

Ye Chen had a polite smile on his face. His expression changed when he saw Qiao Sisi hanging up the phone. He said, “Sisi, I didn’t expect you to be here. If you’re in this reception room… are you a guest from Jinyu Company?”

As she was feeling awkward, Qiao Sisi did not notice that he addressed her informally. She said, “Yes, we’re from Jinyu Company. Why are you here?”

“I… am an employee of Wind City.”

Ye Chen pursed his lips. He had his hands in his pants, and his expression was a bit strange.

Qiao Sisi felt that Ye Chen’s demeanor today was completely different from yesterday.

“Alright, I’ll go in first.” Qiao Sisi doubted that Ye Chen was an employee. However, there was no need to mention that. She decided to return to the waiting room.

As for that certain missed call, she had forgotten about it. “I happen to be here to receive you guys. Can you inform your colleagues?” Ye Chen said as he raised his nice-looking eyebrows slightly.

“Of course I can. Wait for a while. I’ll go in and tell them now.”

After saying that, Qiao Sisi opened the door to the waiting room and informed her colleagues that Ye Chen was waiting outside.

Lin Ya was a little confused when he saw Qiao Sisi winking at someone. She walked out of the waiting room and saw Ye Chen. She then understood why Qiao Sisi did what she did just now.

What a damn coincidence, she thought.

Qiao Sisi stood at the door. When Wei Ya walked past her, she bumped against her shoulder, seemingly unintentionally.

“You…” Qiao Sisi frowned, only to see Wei Ya leave in her high heels, with no intention of apologizing Qiao Sisi narrowed her eyes slightly and rubbed her shoulder, taking this matter to heart.

She was not a forgiving person. When the opportunity arose, she would settle the scores sooner or later!

Scores

Her colleagues left the waiting room. Ye Chen began to give an official introduction of Wind City Company.

Besides showing them some carved jewelry, Ye Chen also brought Qiao Sisi and the rest to meet the jewelry designers in the company.

The exchange was a good learning experience. Other than Wei Ya who was a little arrogant and unwilling to communicate, the others had gained some knowledge.

It was lunchtime.

“Sisi, why do you think Ye Chen is here? I was so shocked to see him just now that I didn’t know what to say,” Lin Ya said as she picked up the food in her bowl.

Qiao Sisi shrugged, indicating that she did not know either. “I am not sure, but he told me he’s an employee here.”

“Employee?”

Lin Ya had a look of disbelief on her face. She was a good judge of people. With that aura, he did not look like an employee at all. He was like a CEO.

“Since he doesn’t want to tell us, let’s not ask him.” Qiao Sisi was eating happily, her mouth almost full.

They would be reimbursed by the company, so there was no need to economize!

A moment later, there was a noise in the canteen. Qiao Sisi and Lin Ya, who were immersed in the world of food, looked up. It was Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was wearing a suit and looking calm, with a slight smile. He did not look as radiant as yesterday but he looked rather dignified.

Many of the female employees in Wind City Company fixed their eyes on him.

“Look at the commotion. I didn’t believe it when you said he’s an employee,” said Lin Ya. Her appetite was gone.

Qiao Sisi raised her eyebrows but did not say anything. She just lowered her head and looked at the food in her bowl, hoping that Ye Chen would not come approach them.
