Chapter Twenty: The Fight for Beauty

  Weeding in the daytime, going to work is really tiring, a whole smart phone, a glance and it's already noon.

  The first morning of Wu Tian's business group was spent like this. An Qing had given him a copy of the business group's rules and regulations, letting him get familiar with it, and planned to let him start getting in touch with business tomorrow. But Wu Tian didn't even glance at it, crumpling it up into a ball and throwing it into the trash can. He was a creator, a lifesaver, not a destroyer. So every time he picked up paper, scenes of lush forests being cut down would appear in his mind. No trade meant no killing, just like how he never did homework when he was in school.

  "Little master, it's noon, let's go eat? I'll treat you." Wu Tian put his phone in his pocket and knocked on the dashboard, looking at An Qing across from him.

  An Qing raised her head, adjusted the frame of her glasses on the bridge of her nose with her hand, and said softly, "Can you not call me Little Master?"

  "What should I call you then? Xiao Anan or Xiao Qingqing?" Wu Tian asked with a smile.

  "You, you can just call me by my name." An Qing said with a red face, towards Wu Tian's intimate address, she felt both shy and unaccustomed.

  "Is Xiaoyan okay? Well, it's not bad." Wu Tian nodded slightly.

  An Qing opened her mouth, she didn't understand why Wu Tian liked to add a 'little' in front of her name when he called her, but thinking of how he had stood up for her before, the words that reached her lips were left unspoken.

  "It's actually...not that hard to listen to."

  Wu Tian and An Qing arrived at the company cafeteria. Although Wu Tian had been with the company for several years, this was his first time eating in the cafeteria. When he was in the R&D department, he rarely ate on schedule. At mealtimes, he would usually have someone send food directly to his office, and by the time he got around to eating, it was often cold.

  After finishing her meal, An Qing carried the tray to an empty table in a corner, which was her habit, she liked places with fewer people and didn't want to be noticed. However, she had only taken a few steps when Wu Tian pressed her onto the table at the very center of the entire dining hall, this was Wu Tian's habit, he liked making everyone aware of his presence.

  "Xiao Anqing, it's my first day in the business department. Tell me, is there anything interesting going on here?" Wu Tian said to Anqing, who had sat down and was eating with her head lowered.

  Anping looked around with her head down and said in a low voice, "Everyone often goes out during the day, sometimes there are less than ten people in the group, so there's nothing interesting to do."

  "Really?" Wu Tian said after hearing, "Before I came to the marketing department, I heard that the marketing department has the most interesting things, such as: who is dating a big shot, who is cheating on a rich woman. Who is whose lover, who has an improper relationship with whom..."

  "You, speak softly." An Qing said with a red face, almost sticking her face into the dishes.

  Wu Tian shook his head, reached out and playfully ruffled An Qing's hair, saying "Little An Qing, your skin is too thin and tender, how can this do? Although I'm an outsider, I also know that in doing business, the most important thing is to have a thick skin."

  "I know, but I've already eaten a lot and my face just can't get any thicker." An Qing said, stretching out her hand to touch her smooth little cheeks.

  "What I mean by 'thick-skinned' is not about having flesh on one's face," Wu Tian corrected.

  "Which one has meat?" An Qing asked in confusion.

  Wu Tian was at a loss, rubbing his forehead non-stop. Boasting was okay, but explaining wasn't his strong suit. After thinking for a while, Wu Tian finally decided to start from his own expertise, which would be easier. He said to An Qing, "How about this? I'll do an experiment for you."

  An Qing nodded, she knew that Wu Tian was originally the deputy director of the R&D department and was very famous, so she looked at Wu Tian with curiosity.

  "Look closely." Wu Tian stood up, first observing his surroundings, then began to meditate. Breathing in and out freely, the energy circulated in his dantian, and a flower bloomed. Feeling almost ready, he suddenly let out a loud shout: "Handsome guy~~!"

  A loud shout pierced through the air, and the large dining hall fell silent in an instant. Regardless of gender or age, everyone turned to look at Wu Tian.

  An Qing was startled and saw so many people looking over, suddenly becoming flustered and almost dropping the chopsticks in her hand.

  At this time, Wu Tian sat down very calmly, then pointed to those men looking at him and said to An Qing, "Do you see? These are all thick-skinned or shameless. Do you understand what I mean now?"

  "......!" An Qing's face turned red as she lowered her head to eat, she wanted to pretend not to know Wu Tian, but it was embarrassing to leave, however, in her heart, she had a deeper understanding of having a thick skin. It turned out that having a thick skin wasn't physical, but spiritual.

  "In fact, in the entire restaurant, the only one who can be considered a handsome guy is me, Wu Tian."

  "Pfft~~!"

  An Qing couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard that. She raised her head, looked at Wu Tian with a smile and asked, "Does this count as having a thick face?"

  "I'm telling the truth."

  An Qing was just about to laugh and say that Wu Tian's face was the thickest, when she saw a woman standing behind Wu Tian, smiling at them. She felt that the woman was very beautiful, so beautiful that she couldn't look straight at her, so she immediately lowered her head and continued eating.

  Wu Tian saw An Qing's reaction and thought it was someone from the business department coming to stir up trouble again, so he frowned and turned away. However, when he saw the person behind him, the fierce look on his face changed to astonishment.

  It's Jingyun!

  "Anything wrong?" Wu Tian looked at him and asked.

  "I just arrived at the company, and I only know one person here." Jingyun smiled as she looked at Wu Tian and asked, "May I sit down?" After finishing speaking, she glanced at the two remaining empty seats.

  "Sit down." Wu Tian pointed to the empty seat beside An Qing.

  "Thank you, I hope I didn't disturb your meal," Jingyun said, then sat down beside Anqing.

  Because there were outsiders present and it was a very beautiful woman, An Qing didn't dare to lift her head. She quickly ate her meal, hoping to finish eating as soon as possible and leave this place early.

  "Colleagues in the business department?" Jingyun asked while eating, her movements still elegant.

  "My mentor. From now on, I'll be working with her in the business department," Wu Tian said to Jingyun, "Her name is An Qing, and I'll have to ask you, as the deputy manager of the marketing department, to take good care of her."

  "Definitely!" Jingyun nodded, but her gaze shifted from Wu Tian's body to behind him.

  Wu Tian thought to himself: What's going on today? Why are there always problems behind me?

  He was about to turn around, when a fragrant breeze came over, and Fang Hua sat down beside him. After placing the dinner plate on the table, she smiled and asked Wu Tian, "Am I interrupting you two?"

  Wu Tian secretly cursed in his heart, the female vagabond leader was back again. More importantly, Jingyun was sitting right across from him, what if Fang Hua teased him?

  "How did you come?" Wu Tian looked at Fang Hua and asked, "I heard that Manager Fang has appointments every day and never eats in the cafeteria."

  "Isn't this to see the handsome guy?" Fang Hua said with a smile, obviously having seen Wu Tian's previous actions. However, after she finished speaking, her gaze quickly shifted from Wu Tian's body and fell on Jingyun's face opposite her, her smile becoming even more charming and captivating.

  Two women, one elegant and refined, the other charming and alluring, one like a lily, the other like a rose, they vied with each other in beauty, gazing at each other, neither of them speaking.

  Wu Tian looked at Jingyun, then looked at Fanghua, and started to get a headache. The appearance of a beauty often leads to a fight between men. And the appearance of two beauties, especially when two strange beauties meet, triggers a fight between beauties.

  Beautiful and excellent women usually have a proud bone. They are unwilling to be ignored and will not become supporting actors.

  To ease the atmosphere, Wu Tian cleared his throat twice before speaking up, "Let me introduce you all..."!

  "No need, we know each other." Fang Hua interrupted Wu Tian's words and stared at Jingyun opposite him with a straight face, saying, "Deputy Manager of the Marketing Department, Jingyun, in charge of market management."

  "Vice Manager of Marketing Department Fang Hua, in charge of sales management."

  The eyes of the two women collided in mid-air, sparking a fierce spark. Wu Tian watched from the side with bated breath. Both were beauties and also deputy managers of the marketing department. Neither was willing to give in to the other, whether it was in terms of beauty or status.

  Oh no, they won't start fighting with each other, will they?
