After hearing all this, Tang Mei felt much relieved, so she smiled and nodded.
Lingxiao Group, clerical staff lounge.
Tian Jiaojiao and two close female clerks were chatting and drinking coffee, complaining about their experiences.
"What, you’ve only talked four times?"
"Didn’t you go to Qingcheng with them, and then to Jin City? There were plenty of opportunities, right?"
The two female clerks were each more surprised than the other.
Tian Jiaojiao sighed, "Really, I almost always dealt with Brother Zhao or Assistant Huang, and seldom saw the chairman himself."
"Oh, Zhao Renjie!" a clerk nodded, sharing some dark chocolate with everyone.
"Do you think I did something wrong? Why do I always feel like I’m just running errands? The chief assistant was transferred, and the remaining two couldn’t handle everything, so they hired me? Alas, not to mention seeing the chairman, I rarely even enter his office."
Tian Jiaojiao spoke in a hushed voice, regret and grievance flickering in her eyes, and unintentionally, she broke the dark chocolate.
"No way, that’s so tough!"
The two clerks exclaimed in unison.
"Yes, look, whether it’s the senior assistant or the administrative assistant, both of them can boss me around and assign me work. And I don’t even have my own office; I’ve always been..." Tian Jiaojiao smiled helplessly, "Hey, it feels like there’s no difference from a regular assistant."
"Do you job? Can you keep going?" one of the clerks asked with concern.
"Actually... I don’t know, but I really want to try my best to see if I can break through. It wasn’t easy getting this job, and I don’t want to give up." Tian Jiaojiao frowned and replied.
"If you really like it, then keep going," another clerk comforted, "After all, the salary isn’t bad, and as long as you’re getting paid, it’s good enough."
"That’s true..." Tian Jiaojiao smiled and agreed, "But the job of a chairman’s assistant isn’t really that simple. I need to properly learn from Assistant Huang and hope to become a senior assistant to the chairman like him in the future."
"Yeah, keep it up!" the two clerks encouraged, "We support you, go for it!"
Tian Jiaojiao smiled and nodded, but still felt somewhat sad. After all, with such a large group and so many talents, without Assistant Huang giving her a chance, it was nearly impossible for her to stand out.
But still, she wanted to keep trying.
"Okay, enough chatting. I feel much better now, thanks, you guys. Let’s go." Tian Jiaojiao took a deep breath and stood up smiling.
"That’s good, let’s go."
"Yeah, keep it up, haha."
Thus, the three of them left the lounge giggling, ready to go back to work.
Unexpectedly, before they even reached the office area, they saw Huang Yi coming toward them, walking quickly as if in a hurry.
The three girls looked at each other, each feeling uneasy, wondering if they had done something wrong.
"Tian Jiaojiao, come with me."
"Oh, okay, Assistant Huang." Tian Jiaojiao was startled and then followed him.
The two walked back to the lounge one after the other.
By then, most of the clerks had already left, leaving many seats empty. Huang Yi went straight to a seat next to the floor-to-ceiling windows and sat down.
Seeing this, Tian Jiaojiao also took a seat. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novèlfire.net
She thought to herself, could it be something serious, requiring talking here?
Huang Yi and Tian Jiaojiao held different positions, so the difference in their treatment was quite significant. Huang Yi, as the chairman’s senior assistant, would not usually come over here; he had his own designated lounge.
If he came, it must be for something very urgent that needed to be assigned to a certain clerk.
"Assistant Huang, is there something?"
Tian Jiaojiao was clearly a bit anxious.
"Yes, there’s something I need to inform you about in advance. Last week in Jin City, you should have seen Lady Tang, right? The girl who was riding a motorcycle with the chairman."
The moment Huang Yi said this, Tian Jiaojiao paused, then involuntarily clenched her fist.
She had peeked through a window, and Zhao Renjie knew about it, but she didn’t understand how Huang Yi knew.
Could Brother Zhao have betrayed me?
It shouldn’t be; it’s not a big deal, just a peek, not illegal.
But why suddenly ask about this?
"I only sneaked a peek because I was curious... just looked through the window, but only got a vague glimpse, she’s very pretty."
