Assistant Xie, who saw several girls with curious faces waiting for him to speak, cleared his throat, raised the docunt in his hand, but instead of answering their questions, he said, "Whoever made this docunt needs to start over and make a new one, it’s not up to standard."
Several people imdiately looked at the docunt, and many who saw it wasn’t theirs breathed a sigh of relief. One of them leaned in to join the curious girls for a glance at the docunt in Assistant Xie’s hand and imdiately wailed, "I’ve already done this three tis this morning, if I keep going, I feel like I’m going to develop a phobia. What exactly is it that the president is not satisfied with? Can’t he just tell us specifically so I can fix it?"
Assistant Xie ignored the girl’s look of utter dejection and swept his gaze indifferent over the other secretaries who were eager to gossip further, and said, "If you want to continue gossiping, I do have the simplest and most direct solution for you."
The secretaries’ faces lit up, one after another asking, "Assistant Xie, what is it?"
Assistant Xie smiled aningfully, and said plainly, "You might try asking the president directly."
The group’s expressions stiffened, and they imdiately went about their own tasks—nobody dared to ask the president. They were normally apprehensive, not to ntion now when the president is in a particularly bad mood.
Watching the secretaries now busy with their own work, Assistant Xie shook his head and turned to leave the secretarial office.
Even he didn’t know what was wrong with the Boss today, how could he possibly know, and then have the gall to tell that group of won?
Assistant Xie had just left the secretarial office when he saw Jian Xia, who seed hesitant to enter or not to enter the president’s office. After a brief pause, he still went straight over, "Miss Jian."
Suddenly hearing a voice behind her startled Jian Xia, who was about to eavesdrop at the door, she turned around with a hand over her chest and saw Assistant Xie standing behind her. She gave an awkward smile and raised her hand in greeting, "Assistant Xie, long ti no see, how have you been?"
Assistant Xie, "... Miss Jian, we just t last week." He didn’t have the heart to put her on the spot, but in the end, Assistant Xie still did.
Jian Xia’s awkward smile returned, "Heh, really?" She then rembered the purpose of her visit today and leaned closer to Assistant Xie, pointing at the closed office door with a smile, "By the way, is your boss inside at the mont?"
"He was still inside when I left five minutes ago, I don’t know if he’s still there now." Assistant Xie did not hide anything, seeing Jian Xia move close to him, he quickly stepped back to maintain a distance and his tone was polite, "Does Miss Jian have business with the president?"
Jian Xia waved her hand thoughtfully, then said, "I heard on my way up that your president is not in a good mood today, is that true?"
When she was taking the elevator up, she happened to be with a few executives from CK Group and overheard their discussion about everyone getting scolded for the docunts they submitted that morning, and even heard that a female executive was reduced to tears.
This made Jian Xia imdiately wonder if it was because Song Qiao and Zuo Yuqing had been injured over at Hua Yi which led to that man taking his bad mood out on the company staff.
Hearing it then, it seed sowhat incredulous, as in her mind, Lu Jingchen had never truly acted on impulse, and this man’s ability to hide his emotions was superior to anyone else’s.
Yet when she arrived, she inexplicably thought of Song Qiao and Zuo Yuqing, who were still in the hospital, and suddenly everything seed understandable.
Assistant Xie was taken aback, subconsciously nodding, but he did not directly answer Jian Xia’s question. Instead, he said, "Miss Jian, perhaps the president’s remarks were because there were indeed issues with those people’s work. If you need to see the president, you can go in and find him."
"I’m not here to see him... uh, it’s him who has business with ." Jian Xia gave an embarrassed smile, touched her nose, waved to Assistant Xie, and said, "You’re not needed here anymore, I’ll go in myself later."
"Alright, then I’ll go back to work."
