Chapter 33: Best Friends

  Zhang Jing was stunned, but didn't ask why during working hours, a bodyguard suddenly appeared and left.

  Su Yingxue also knew it was strange, but she couldn't care about too much anymore. She really wanted to find Lin Fei and ask him clearly, what's his background?

  Starting from today, she will be living under the same roof as Lin Fei. No matter how strong she is, after all, she's just a girl and doesn't understand much about these things, it's really hard to feel at ease.

  Moreover, this guy knows too many strange things, and can even speak English, French, Hebrew, which makes her wonder, with such strong language skills, why not make money? Why bother opening a substitute driving school?

  But she was too embarrassed to go find Lin Fei herself.

  After a while, Zhang Jing returned to the office, but didn't bring that guy back with her.

  "Director Su..." Zhang Jing said with some displeasure: "That Lin Fei is not in the office, I called him to find him, he asked me what's up, I said you're looking for him, he said if there's no safety issue, let's talk later."

  Su Yingxue listened and said that he was still sleeping in the afternoon, but where did he go? Suddenly, she frowned with suspicion, "Did he say where he was going?"

  "It's unclear, he seems to be busy with something and hung up after a few words," Zhang Jing said with a stuffy tone: "Director Su, this Lin Fei is too undisciplined, we must strictly demand him, otherwise he'll treat the company like an amusement park that can be entered at will."

  Su Yingxue thought for a moment and suddenly remembered that when Lin Fei looked at Xu Wei before, he had a lost soulful look.

  "You go ahead and busy yourself, I'll personally go find him", Su Yingxue's heart rose with a surge of unnamed anger, her voice cold.

  Zhang Jing could tell that Su Yingxue was angry, but also felt it was reasonable, thinking to herself that Lin Fei was doomed, and quietly retreated.

  Su Yingxue walked unhurriedly to the elevator and went to the chairman's office floor, then headed to Xu Wei's chairman secretary's office.

  Just as I walked out of the office, I only saw two little assistants idly browsing shopping websites. Not only was Xu Wei not there, but Lin Fei wasn't here either.

  "Cough", Su Yingxue cleared her throat, scaring those two little assistants so much that their souls almost flew out.

  Two female assistants, a few years younger than Su Yingxue, hastily stood up, their pretty faces pale as they respectfully shouted "Hello, Director Su".

  Su Yingxue glanced at the shopping website on the computer and said, "Next time I see this again, you're fired. If you like shopping so much, why not open your own online store?"

  "Director Su, we were wrong! Please spare us this time!"

  The two little assistants were so scared that they almost cried. It was clear in the company that although the chairman was the largest, the real decision-maker and executor was Su Yingxue. Except for major decisions made by the board of directors, she took charge of daily work.

  Su Yingxue was after this effect, and asked: "Where is Secretary Xu?"

  "Xu... Secretary Xu has gone to see the Chairman, the Chairman wants to see her," a little assistant said weakly.

  "Wasn't there a man named Lin Fei who came here just now?" Su Yingxue asked again.

  The two little assistants shook their heads and looked at Su Yingxue with some confusion.

  Su Yingxue was suddenly puzzled, what's going on? Lin Fei didn't come to find Xu Wei, then where did he go?

  Let the two little assistants work well, Su Yingxue turned her head and walked slowly towards the elevator, thinking about whether to make a call, but that seemed like she couldn't leave this smelly man.

  At this moment, a slender figure came out of the chairman's office in some disarray, perhaps too nervous to notice someone passing by from the front, and was constantly stroking her disheveled hair with her hand.

  This face was flushed with redness, her temples were slightly sweaty, and the woman with a hint of shyness in her expression was none other than Xu Wei!

  Su Yingxue suddenly thought of something when she saw Xu Wei constantly adjusting her uniform and taking deep breaths, and called out to her in a low voice.

  Vivian.

  Xu Wei, who was trying her best to calm herself down, was startled and shrank back, but when she saw it was Su Yingxue, she let out a sigh of relief and smiled.

  "Ah...... scared me to death, Xiaoxue... how are you here? Didn't you just go downstairs?"

  The two women's terms of address were very intimate, as if the relationship between their positions didn't exist at all. In fact, they also got along well in private.

  The two were university classmates. Xu Wei was two years older than Su Yingxue, so she was still an upperclassman, but because Su Yingxue skipped a grade, they were in the same class.

  Since college, the two have had a very good sisterly relationship and appreciate each other.

  All the way to entering Qincheng, one is that Xu Wei's ability is indeed outstanding, and the other is also due to Su Yingxue's relationship. Xu Wei directly became Su Xingyuan's secretary, which can be considered a good position that can't be used for several years, and then go on to take on high-level positions.

  "Don't pretend like nothing's wrong, tell me, is it that my dad has those bad thoughts about you again?" Su Yingxue asked with a chilly face.

  Xu Wei forced a smile and said: "Don't be angry, the chairman didn't take advantage of me... do I look like someone who's been taken advantage of?"

  "Even if you're not taken advantage of today, it's hard to guarantee that won't happen in the future. My dad has had his eye on you for a long time, and as his secretary, it's impossible for you to avoid him."

  If it weren't for my mom keeping a close eye on him in Lin'an before, he would have probably made his move on you already. I didn't expect that just one week after my mom left for the US, he would be so brazen...

  "No way, I won't stand by and watch you get bullied. I'll turn around and call the US to wake up my mom!" Su Yingxue said indignantly.

  "Don't be ridiculous!" Xǔ Wèi hastily dissuaded: "Xiǎo Xuě, I know you're doing this for my sake, but it's not good for anyone..."

  Aren't you having a tough time yourself? If the company can't get through this crisis, your position as CEO and even your life will be ruined.

  I just occasionally received some harassment, but didn't actually suffer any losses. In fact, the chairman was already being quite lenient, not using strong measures, and among those secretaries of other big companies, there were a few who managed to escape unscathed.

  "Nowadays, the economy is not good, and girls like us are easily bullied wherever we go. In the past, when I was in university, weren't those professors also heartless? Having you to take care of me here is already quite good."

  "That would be too much of a waste for you, I'll think of a way to make some personnel adjustments, either by transferring you under me or recommending you to the board to transfer you to the administrative department, which just so happens to lack a deputy minister," Su Yingxue suggested.

  Xu Wei immediately shook her head, "Absolutely not! At my age and with this experience, I was able to become the secretary of the chairman just by entering Qingcheng International for less than a year. This is already a favor from the board of directors, thanks to you, who knows how many people have been jealous over the past few years."

  To me, this job is hard to come by. If this matter gets blown up and someone with ulterior motives notices something, causing the chairman and his wife to have a falling out, not to mention the chairman won't let me off easy, the madam will also have an opinion about me.

  You're already having a hard time at home, and if you stick up for me, the chairman will definitely be even stricter with you. Please don't let me owe you more, I'll feel too much pressure, Xiaoxue, please?
