Chapter 72 -72 Zhiyi is Really Amazing

Gong Yan’s secretary felt as if he had been struck in the back of the leg, losing his balance and accidentally spilling all the tea on Gong Yan and into the lunchbox.

Gong Yan furrowed his brow.

The secretary quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, young master, it wasn’t intentional.”

At that moment, Gong Chen stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray.

“I need you to go on a business trip to Hai City. The documents are here, remember to read them.”

Gong Yan glanced at the documents on the desk, “Okay.”

“I’m leaving.”

Gong Chen left without turning back.

In the office, Gong Yan pulled the handkerchief from the secretary’s hand, his expression still gentle.

“Go and prepare for the business trip.”

“Yes.”

The secretary stood up and left the office.

Gong Yan stared at the lunchbox on the desk, his eyes deepening.

Inside the elevator.

Chen Jin fiddled with a small pebble in his hand.

“Third Young Master, did you just call me to follow you…”

“Hmm?”

“Never mind.”

…

Thanks to Gong Yan, Lin Zhiyi wasn’t late. She had just clocked in and hadn’t had the chance to feel pleased when she heard a disappointing voice.

“Zhiyi.”

Shen Yan approached with a smile, dressed in a receptionist’s uniform.

“Are you the new receptionist?”

Lin Zhiyi truly admired Shen Yan a bit for wasting her internship opportunity just to be a lapdog for Song Wanqiu.

Such unwavering loyalty.

Shen Yan bashfully lowered her head, looking timid and aggrieved.

“Zhiyi, do you look down on me for being a receptionist? I think it’s an honor to work at President Xue’s prestigious studio.”

Seeing Shen Yan’s pitiable act, Lin Zhiyi knew that some important person must have approached from behind her.

Her eyes subtly shifted as she grabbed Shen Yan’s hand, “What are you talking about? We’re close friends, how could I look down on you? If anything, saying that makes it seem like you’re the one who doesn’t respect yourself.”

“Actually, I’ll tell you secretly, my first choice for the internship was President Xue’s studio. Even if I wasn’t picked, I’d be willing to work as a cleaner.”

Just as she finished speaking, the sound of high heels approached from behind.

“Having you as a cleaner would indeed show my lack of judgment.”

It was Xue Man.

Lin Zhiyi ignored the flash of jealousy in Shen Yan’s eyes and turned around in feigned surprise.

“President Xue, I’m sorry for the embarrassment.”

“Are you feeling alright now?” Xue Man asked with concern.

“I’m fine now. You must be tired from rushing back from your business trip yesterday, right?”

“It’s a routine for me. Actually, I have matters to discuss with you all at a meeting today, let’s head up together.”

As she spoke, Xue Man glanced at Shen Yan.

Shen Yan looked towards Xue Man with a touch of schadenfreude, but her face still maintained its usual timid demeanor.

“President Xue, I…”

“Shen Yan, right? As a receptionist, you should appear lively. Always looking down won’t make others respect you. Also, bring some coffee to the meeting room later,” Xue Man said with a frown.

“Yes.”

Shen Yan’s face turned ashen. Neither lowering nor raising her head felt right; she could only stiffly force a smile.

Xue Man led Lin Zhiyi upstairs.

Shen Yan twisted her fingers, staring hard at Lin Zhiyi’s departing figure.

Just you wait.

…

During the meeting. _{freёwebnovel.com}

Song Wanqiu was still the center of attention.

Although yesterday’s incident with the lawyer’s letter had caused some doubts, a personalized coffee each morning, explaining that she was just playing drunk with Lin Zhiyi, appeased the matter.

Lin Zhiyi didn’t respond, effectively conceding to the explanation.

The reason was simple; she didn’t want Gong Chen to use Liu He to threaten her.

Her colleagues also believed it, especially since Song Wanqiu mentioned the coffee was arranged by Gong Chen, further solidifying her unique status in the studio.
