Chapter 19: Encounter at the Hotel

  When Zhong Xiaofei was observing Xiong Huilin, Xiong Huilin smiled with his eyes, as if he was also observing him.

  "Your name is Zhong Xiaofei, right? San Shi just mentioned you a moment ago." Xiong Huilin asked with pride.

  "Yes." Zhong Xiaofei smiled and said, "What did Manager Li say about me?"

  "San Shi said you are very capable, a talent, the company's rising star... just a little timid..." Xiong Huilin glanced at Zhong Xiaofei, and the watery eyes with a hint of flirtation made Zhong Xiaofei's heart beat rapidly.

  "Ah." Zhong Xiaofei was speechless.

  A man can't tolerate being ridiculed by a woman for being timid, Zhong Xiaofei was furious, Xiong Huilin's glorious image in his mind dropped a lot, he allowed others to look down on him, but absolutely did not allow himself to be looked down upon by a beauty! Being despised by a beauty! "Being brave or timid is not determined at one time," Zhong Xiaofei said calmly, "Time will prove everything!"

  "Really?" Xiong Huilin glanced at him, her eyes slightly surprised, and let out a couple of soft giggles. Her smile was like blooming flowers, elegant and refined, like plum blossoms in the snow. Zhong Xiaofei's heart skipped a beat as he watched, his soul almost escaping from his body. He couldn't help but remind himself: boss's wife, not to be trifled with.

  Li San Shi returned, pulled up a chair and sat down, smiling and asked, "What's the topic? Why so happy?" Li San Shi was fat, had small eyes, and sparse eyebrows. When he smiled, if you didn't look closely, not only could you not distinguish his eyes from his eyebrows, but it also looked extremely lewd.

  "No," Zhong Xiaofei hastily replied. Li San Shi was his direct superior, and it's said that a superior's wife is not to be trifled with. If he were to let Li San Shi misunderstand, then Zhong Xiaofei would have no choice but to leave empty-handed.

  Li San Shi glanced at his wife, his eyes flashing, and didn't ask any more questions.

  "Xiaofei, last night's deal was very successful. Although the profit wasn't much, this is your first time after all, and having such results is already excellent. I've also reported to Chairman Yang, he has a high opinion of you, your future prospects are boundless..." Li San Shi said with great sincerity.

  The company is a large enterprise with assets of tens of billions, and a small employee like Zhong Xiaofei, without any special contribution, would not be known to the chairman Yang Tianzeng. Now with Li Sanshi's recommendation, Yang Tianzeng has taken notice of him, which means his future in the company is bright.

  "Manager Li, Brother Li, thank you so much. I'll be sure to take good care of you in the future." Zhong Xiaofei made a great effort to appear very sincere and respectfully poured a large cup of red wine for Li San Shi.

  "Don't be polite, as long as you work hard, you'll definitely make a lot of money, and more than I do. The only thing is that you need to be bolder, just like last night, I reminded you that even if there's a loss, it won't be your responsibility. But you still hesitated and wasted the good opportunity. If you were bolder and tougher, with achievements, I could say more for you in front of Chairman Yang today."

  Li San Shi patted Zhong Xiao Fei's shoulder and let out a regretful sigh.

  Zhong Xiaofei was also regretful in her heart, last night was indeed a good opportunity.

  "Alright, that's it, we'll go first." Li San Shi stood up.

  "Manager Li walked slowly, see you later sister-in-law." Zhong Xiaofei stood up to send off the two.

  They made a perfect couple.

  Zhong Xiaofei saw that the couple's ride was a red Ferrari, such a famous car, at least worth over one million.

  After the couple left, Zhong Xiaofei casually ate two mouthfuls, paid the bill and also left the restaurant. On the way, he made a phone call to Xiao Wei, only to find out that she was with Wu Yijie, still having dinner in the company canteen. Women eating is just slow. Xiao Wei's coquettish voice made Zhong Xiaofei's heart itch.

  After finishing the phone call, Xiao Fei hailed a taxi and went straight to the company.

  "Xiao Fei, when are you going to treat us? As soon as he entered the company, he ran into his colleague Chen Hao. Chen Hao walked over, grabbed him and patted his shoulder warmly."

  "It's okay anytime." Zhong Xiaofei smiled, investing in both the foreign department and the domestic department. The treatment and status of the foreign department are twice that of the domestic department. Now, Zhong Xiaofei suddenly jumped from the domestic department to the foreign department, and became the chief, so he had to treat everyone to a meal.

  "Then tonight." Chen Hao smiled and made a decision for Zhong Xiaofei.

  "Good."

  In the afternoon, work continued. Since I just entered the foreign ministry, some things still need to get used to. Zhong Xiaofei's work is still very busy.

  "Sir, would you like some coffee?" At 2:30 in the afternoon, just after the domestic stock market closed, Zhong Xiaofei, who was busy with his head down, heard the familiar soft voice again.

  She raised her head, a long-haired beauty in uniform smiled brightly and stood before him with a cup of coffee.

  Xiao Wei has come to deliver coffee again.

  "It's got milk and sugar, and it was delivered by a beautiful girl." Little Wei blinked her eyes and smiled.

  "Then I have no reason to refuse." Zhong Xiaofei suppressed a smile.

  Xiao Wei put the coffee on his desk, blinked her eyes and turned around to leave.

  Everyone in the house looked at Zhong Xiaofei with envy and jealousy.

  Ring... ring... The black phone on the office desk was ringing. Zhong Xiaofei put down her coffee and picked up the phone.

  "I'm Secretary Wu of the company, please ask Zhong Xiaofei from the investment department to come to the secretariat on the fifth floor."

  Zhong Xiaofei became excited, he didn't know what Wu Yijie wanted to call him for, but no matter what it was, even if Wu Yijie was going to scold him or slap him twice, he would still be willing.

  "It's almost here!" Zhong Xiaofei jumped up, put down all her work and headed to the secretariat on the fifth floor.

  The offices of the company leaders are on the sixth floor, and the secretariat is on the fifth floor. The investment department is on the third floor. Zhong Xiaofei didn't take the elevator, but instead ran up the stairs from the third floor to the fifth floor in one breath.

  Standing in front of Wu Yu Jie's door, Zhong Xiao Fei suppressed her excitement and gently knocked on the door.

  "Please come in." A crisp and arrogant voice.

  Zhong Xiaofei pushed open the door and saw a face that was as beautiful as an angel, yet as cold as ice.

  "Secretary Wu, you're looking for me?" Zhong Xiaofei swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart racing as he stared at Wu Yijie. Wu Yijie sat in the chair, her eyes fluttering back and forth, her jade-like hands playing with a pencil, turning it around and around. She glanced at Zhong Xiaofei and raised her snow-white chin, gesturing for him to sit down.

  Zhong Xiaofei took a deep breath, to be aware that this was his first time alone with Wu Yujie in the same room since he joined the company, and they were so close, just separated by a table.

  Zhong Xiaofei's heart was racing, he closed the door and sat down like a primary school student, his eyes fixed on Wu Yijie, his gaze involuntarily sweeping over her beautiful face and falling onto her towering chest. Wu Yijie was wearing a short-sleeved shirt as usual, with two small buttons undone, revealing a small patch of snow-white skin on her chest.

  It's probably because they were too close, but Zhong Xiaofei could vaguely see that under the white shirt, there was a black shadow. Could it be that Wu Yijie was wearing a black bra, just like the black, sexy little lace one that Zhong Xiaofei had picked up?

  Zhong Xiaofei's lower body involuntarily reacted, pitching a small tent.

  "Sign it," Wu Yijie took out a document and handed it to Zhong Xiaofei with a cold expression. She also handed him a pen.

  Zhong Xiaofei took over the file with both hands, feeling the warmth of Wu Yijie's jade-like hand still lingering on the part where she had held it.

  He took up his pen and signed with a flourish.

  It was his transfer procedure.

  He deliberately signed slowly, just to sit in the chair in front of Wu Yujie for a while longer and breathe in the fragrance exhaled by the beauty.

  Wu Yijie didn't urge him either, but instead looked at him coldly.

  Finally finished signing, Zhong Xiaofei held her pen and sighed in her heart, why were there so few places to sign?

  "Alright, you can go now." Wu Yijie took over the file and glanced at it, waving her hand to Zhong Xiaofei.

  "Oh." Zhong Xiaofei was very disappointed, he racked his brains to find a way to stay longer. "Secretary Wu, Xiao Wei has been following you for meals these two days, let you spend more money,"

  "Not interested." Wu Yijie tidied up the documents, without lifting her head, and then shifted her gaze back to the computer screen. Her proud and aloof demeanor seemed to show no interest in Zhong Xiaofei at all.

  Zhong Xiaofei had no choice but to leave the office with a sullen face.

  As he walked out of the door, he saw Xiaowei standing in the corridor, smiling brightly at him. "Brother-in-law?"

  "Oh, Secretary Wu is calling me..." Zhong Xiaofei explained nervously.

  "I know." Little Wei blinked her eyes and smiled, "Brother-in-law, you look so defeated. What's wrong, did Sister Wu scold you?"

  "What's wrong with me? Where did I fail?" Zhong Xiaofei puffed out his chest, a serious expression on his face. "It's just that I was working overtime last night and didn't sleep well, why would Secretary Wu blame me? And... "lowering his voice" ...don't call me brother-in-law, in the company you should call me Mr."

  Xiao Wei whispered with a smile, "Alright, sir, I heard you're treating us tonight?"

  "Yes."

  "Then I'll go too."

  Zhong Xiaofei hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said "No!" He didn't want to introduce such a beautiful sister-in-law to those lecherous colleagues of his.

  In the evening's invitation, Zhong Xiaofei indeed didn't bring Xiao Wei along. Although Xiao Wei was very dissatisfied, she also didn't insist too much. "Hmph, you're not taking me there, it's so boring for me to stay at home alone? I'll go find Sister Wu," Xiao Wei said.

  "Alright." Zhong Xiaofei readily agreed, as long as Xiao Wei didn't drag him to meet that group of perverts, anything was fine.

  In the afternoon after work, Zhong Xiaofei treated his colleagues from the investment department, including those from the foreign and domestic departments, to a dinner at a high-end restaurant near the company. There were over ten people in total. He also invited Li Sanshi, but Li Sanshi declined, citing that he had something else to attend to.

  That night, everyone drank a lot because tomorrow was Saturday and they didn't have to go to work, so they had no worries at all. During the dinner, everyone opened up their hearts, flattering each other from 6 pm till 9 pm in the evening.

  "Xiao Fei, you've been promoted! Don't forget about your brothers in the future!"

  "How could it be? As long as I have a mouthful of rice, there will always be soup for my brothers!"

  As the protagonist, Zhong Xiaofei was flattered and toasted by everyone in turn, but with his good drinking capacity, he had no problem dealing with this amount of wine.

  Finally, after sending off all his colleagues, Zhong Xiaofei had a cup of tea and freshened up in the hotel's bathroom. He then took out his phone and dialed Weiwei's number.

  Xiao Wei's soft voice, "Have you finished drinking?"

  "Where are you after drinking?"

  "Uh-huh, I'm out shopping with Sister Wu... " Little Wei still hadn't gone home.

  "What time is it? Still strolling around?" Hearing Xiaowei with Yujie, Zhongxiaofei's heart skipped a beat, but looking at the time again made her suspicious.

  "You don't know, the mall here doesn't close until 10 o'clock. Hehe, I won't tell you, let's just go back." Little Wei giggled.

  Zhong Xiaofei hung up the phone, took a taxi home, got home and poured herself a glass of water, fell onto the sofa, her mind was dizzy and heavy, her eyelids were too heavy to open.

  After a while, the door creaked softly, and Xiao Wei returned home.

  "A whole house of wine fumes...... Brother-in-law, how much have you drunk?" Xiaowei complained as soon as she entered the room, pinching her nose.

  Zhong Xiaofei sat up, hehe silly smile, "Didn't drink much, brother-in-law I have a good capacity for wine..."

  "Still good at drinking? Look, your eyes are all red..." Xiaowei put the big and small bags she was holding on the coffee table, took off her shoes, and sat down on the sofa herself, rubbing her little toes with her hands. "I'm so tired today, I walked through so many shopping malls." Xiaowei said with a smile, "By the way, brother-in-law, I bought a skirt, take a look if it's good-looking or not?"

  Zhong Xiaofei's attention was originally focused on her snow-white little feet, and she couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Xiao Wei's two small feet were too enticing, crystal clear and flawless, with ten pink toes that made people want to kiss them uncontrollably. Zhong Xiaofei looked at them with great relish.
