Chapter Thirty-Nine
changed his demeanor and snapped. "Your mere presence infuriates me. I'm busy today, no time for you. Wait until I have a moment to deal with your misconduct properly."Yan Luoxi privately considered...Chapter 39
Baicheng, despite being male, does not enjoy labor. Coincidentally, the company is expecting two foreigners for a negotiation exchange session, so he took this chance to call away his two female colleagues whom he was close to and left tasks like moving documents to倪暄漪等人.
The beautiful minister led Sister Lili,倪暄漪, and one small intern leisurely downstairs. Originally, these documents could be moved by the logistics personnel, but since they involved classification—different categories of files needed to be sent to different departments—and were all in foreign languages, their department had to handle it themselves.
There was an especially large amount of paperwork today; many boxes were unloaded from the company's delivery truck. The beautiful minister looked at her high-end outfit and then at those dusty boxes, pointing at倪暄漪: "You, go get a small handcart and move these boxes to the vehicle. Use the elevator to transport them upstairs!"
Resignedly nodding,倪暄漪 didn't know why this beautiful minister always looked down on her; perhaps it was because she felt that her clothes were more upscale.
The four people who came downstairs to move documents included倪暄漪. The main reason the beautiful minister came downstairs was to find the documents destined for the president's office at first instance and then take them back to her own office to fill out. She aimed to personally hand over the documents to Li Yitong in the afternoon so that he could review them; she heard that Li Yitong would be going to Europe tomorrow, leaving for half a month. If she didn't act quickly, she'd miss another opportunity to see him.
Sister Lili had worked at the company for many years and was senior in rank; she also liked to take advantage of her seniority. Therefore, all the work of moving documents fell on倪暄漪 and another intern's shoulders.
Although倪暄漪 had good physical fitness, she had never handled such a handcart before. When several heavy boxes were loaded onto it, she found it hard to grip its handle; the cart refused to move in a straight line, swerving left and right, making倪暄漪 sweat profusely.
Ni Xuanyi bit her lips and stared firmly ahead, but the little car seemed to be deliberately causing trouble, hitting a person who had just stepped out of an elevator. Ni Xuanyi watched helplessly as the wheels of the little car rolled over the man's shiny leather shoes, followed by an exaggerated scream.
It was all over; Ni Xuanyi closed her eyes in despair. The beautiful minister didn't like her anyway, and now she had caused trouble again. She probably wouldn't be able to get through this internship period.
The beautiful minister and Miss LiLi, standing under the air conditioner not far away, rushed over immediately upon seeing Ni Xuanyi's mishap. The beautiful minister was extremely apologetic and anxious as she said, "Mr. Li, I'm so sorry! She’s new here and isn't familiar with the business..."
Ni Xuanyi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat; had she hit Mr. Li Yi How could it be such a coincidence Why was she so unlucky When she looked her best, she never encountered Li Yi, but now when she felt most humiliated and embarrassed, she met him!
“Are you guys planning to commit murder What are you pushing this thing into the lobby for!” A domineering voice rang in Ni Xuanyi's ears. She finally relaxed her anxious heart and looked up at Li An’s irritated face with a mischievous smile.
Lian, who was visibly angry, appeared extremely surprised upon recognizing Ni Xuanyi, furrowing his brows without reservation, "Xuanxuan, why are you here in the company And what's this you're pushing"
“Ah…” Before Ni Xuanyi could answer Li An’s question, the beautiful minister was already gaping at her in astonishment, “You… You know Mr. Li”
Ni Xuanyi smiled but did not reply.
Lian ignored the shocked beauty minister and raised an eyebrow to size up Nichuanyi from head to toe, saying, "So you've come here for work Why didn't my brother tell me about it Which department are you in The logistics department"
At this point, Nichuanyi knew that pretending to be a commoner wouldn’t work anymore. She pointed at the beauty minister beside her and said, "I'm in the Foreign Trade Department, same as her."
"Mr. Lian, our... Our department needs to transport some documents, so I came along with Xuanxuan to help!" The usually eloquent beauty minister became nervous and started stammering.
The beauty minister had long noticed that Nichuanyi was well-dressed in high-end brands she couldn't afford. She knew this little girl must have a background. She deliberately checked Nichuanyi's file, only to find out both her parents were deceased and she didn’t have any influential connections. The beauty minister guessed that Nichuanyi had taken advantage of her good looks like many other female college students did and attached herself to wealthy tycoons who gave her all the clothes.
But no matter how much she thought about it, she never imagined that tiny Nichuanyi would know anyone from the Li family. Moreover, their familiarity indicated they were well-acquainted with each other.
All employees of Dynasty Empire knew that the eldest Master Li was shrewd and terrifying; even his second son who rarely came to the company was terrifying as well. He was an eccentric young master who did things based solely on his likes and dislikes, never following any conventional rules. No matter how unreasonable he acted, his older brother always protected him.
The beauty minister and Sister Lili didn’t wait for Lian’s response; they just looked at him, and cold sweat started to pour down their faces.
How smart was Lian! Looking at the dusty paper boxes on Nichuanyi's little trolley and seeing her covered in dust while the beauty minister looked spotlessly clean and Sister Lili acted like she had done nothing, everything became clear to him.
He frowned, looking at the beautiful female minister and Sister Lily, saying, "I just heard you say that she's new here and not familiar with the business. If you know that she is unfamiliar with the operations, why don't you set a good example for her Letting her run around recklessly in front of everyone isn’t right. What if I get knocked over by her or even worse, what if our customers do"
Lì An didn't use harsh words; however, the female minister and Sister Lily next to him were already ashen-faced, nodding their heads profusely in agreement, "That's correct, Director Lì is right..."
"Then hurry up and show her how it’s done!" Lì An spoke in a serious tone.
“Yes sir!” The female minister and Sister Lily rushed forward to take the handcart from Ní Xuanyi first.
Ní Xuanyi knew that she wouldn’t be able to stay in this Foreign Trade Department, so she simply handed over the cart to them without caring if there was still dust on her clothes. She reached out and pulled Lì An’s arm, whining loudly, "Oh my god, I'm boiling with heat! Go buy me an ice cream!"
"You deserve it for sneaking off here like this," Lì An shot Ní Xuanyi a cold glance, before softening his tone and asking, “What brand do you want”
“Hagen-Dazs!” Ní Xuanyi answered generously. "I want two!"
The large auditorium of the Dynasty Empire was bustling with people going in all directions. Upon seeing Ní Xuanyi tugging at Lì An, they couldn’t help but stare wide-eyed. After all, the second young master of the Lì family wasn't a casual person to be messed around with. Just who exactly is this little girlwoman had nothing to do with her."Elder Brother, I don’t think it can be done. I know my capabilities well enough. If you give me a company, I won’t have the ability to manage it and might even bankru...
