"This..." Mo Xiaoxiao was sowhat troubled.
It's not that it was difficult.
But rather she felt a bit embarrassed.
After all, she had first agreed to Du ii.
Moreover, the other party had gone to such lengths to help her.
What should she do?
Mo Xiaoxiao was at a loss for ideas.
"How about this, Xiaoxiao, my husband is coming to pick up later, you help tell him about the situation," Du ii said after thinking for a bit.
Turns out, Du ii was quite afraid of her own husband.
Previously, at the dinner table, she bragged about how good her husband was to her, almost obedient to her every word.
If she commanded him to go east, he wouldn't dare to go west.
Su Chen was speechless.
If one doesn't have the capability, why bother with the pretense?
Su Chen rembered a joke from before, where a man boasted about his capabilities at a class reunion, claiming he could solve any problem.
Turns out, a classmate indeed asked him for help, to buy a train ticket.
Then to keep up the facade he had adopted, he ran to the train station overnight to queue up and purchase a ticket for soone.
Isn't this just a typical case of preferring to lose face rather than bearing hardships?
Du ii also felt a bit embarrassed.
However, there were a lot of embarrassed people today.
If you count them up, it should be Mia who was most embarrassed.
She always compared Su Chen, who was a pig farr, with her boyfriend, who was doing well in the entertainnt industry.
Filled with a sense of superiority.
Turns out her so-called boyfriend was a scamr.
And the pig farr, who happened to know Scarlett.
It seed like they were quite close too.
Defeated, utterly defeated.
And Lin Xi, who she thought was doing poorly, was actually able to co up with one million to help Mo Xiaoxiao.
This shows that even if Lin Xi was not doing well, she still had a net worth in the tens of millions.
She was frustrated and unwilling to accept it, but she didn't know how to save face now.
"Well, okay then." Mo Xiaoxiao agreed.
After all, this matter was because of her, so it was only right to go explain it to them.
A group of people stood at the entrance of the restaurant.
Waiting for their boyfriends or husbands to co and pick them up.
Of course, so of them drove themselves.
A few minutes later, Du ii's husband finally arrived.
Du ii's husband, a middle-aged man, looked to be ten plus years older than her.
But he had a good temperant, wearing a pair of black-frad glasses, dressed in suit and leather shoes, obviously a workplace professional.
There was a sense of commanding presence without being angry.
The car he drove was a Buick Regal, less than two hundred thousand, a rather average car.
"Husband..." The man parked his car, and Du ii imdiately went to greet him.
"Finished eating?" The man simply asked.
"Mhm."
"Then let's hurry back, there are so things at the company I still need to deal with," the man said as he was about to get into the car.
At that mont, everyone understood that it was Du ii who was actually the obedient one.
"It's not, well, husband, there's sothing I need to tell you..."
At that mont, Mo Xiaoxiao walked over.
"It's like this..." Du ii explained the situation.
The man frowned and said, "How can it be like this? You know I never take advantage of connections, this ti, it was already against my principles, after a lot of effort, I finally managed to speak with HR, as long as there was no falsification of her resu, she could start work directly. Now she's not going, what does that an?"
After all, each position in the company's recruitnt is a slot for one person.
For this position to help Mo Xiaoxiao, the man had already crossed his own bottom line.
Using his connections.
Now the position was kept open on the other end, but there was no one to fill it here.
"I'm sorry, honey..." Du ii started cooing.
"Sigh." The man sighed and said, "To keep that position, I already let go of several excellent candidates... Now you're asking to..."
It was apparent the man was a very upright person.
Only because Du ii kept asking did he agree to this request.
Of course, the main reason was that Mo Xiaoxiao's resu was indeed impressive; at such a young age she had done countless part-ti jobs and relied on her own ability to study abroad.
Such perseverance is not sothing everyone has.
"If Xiaoxiao doesn't go, will it be very serious?" Du ii seed to understand the severity of the situation.
"What do you think? What our boss hates the most is nepotism. If our boss finds out I did sothing like this, won't he fire ? You always need to be down-to-earth in dealing with people, there's no need to endure all this hardship just for the sake of face..."
Mo Xiaoxiao's expression was a bit conflicted, but she didn't hesitate for too long, then she went back to Lin Xi's side.
She said, "Sorry, EVE, I had already promised soone else, so..."
Everyone hates it when soone backpedals at the last minute.
Mo Xiaoxiao had already decided to team up with Lin Xi, but after knowing what Du ii's husband had sacrificed, she felt it wasn't right to do that.
She thought Lin Xi would be disappointed, but Lin Xi, upon hearing this, laughed instead. Being able to maintain one's true heart in the face of temptation proved even more that Du ii was a person who could be utilized.
She could even be cultivated into one of her trusted aides.
As for the matter with Du ii's husband?
It wasn't an issue at all.
At this mont, Du ii's husband finally noticed the stunning figure standing in the back of the crowd.
His entire being was struck as if by a Bomb.
Instantly, he froze on the spot.
"Old Wang, what's wrong with you?" Du ii noticed her husband's strange expression and asked.
Wasn't Mo Xiaoxiao's refusal of Lin Xi a good thing?
Only to see Wang Hong trembling, he approached Lin Xi, looking as if he had seen a ghost.
"President Wang, I'm taking your candidate right in front of you, you wouldn't bla , right?" Lin Xi said with a smiling gaze towards Wang Hong.
Hearing how Lin Xi addressed her own husband, Du ii was puzzled.
Could it be that Lin Xi knew her husband?
That's right, after all, they are all in the clothing industry.
Her husband's clothing company is the largest in Jiangdu City.
A lot of small companies striving to survive are dependent on larger companies.
As a departnt head, it's not surprising for Lin Xi, the owner of a small clothing company, to know him.
But shouldn't Lin Xi show great respect when seeing Wang Hong?
Why then did Wang Hong have an expression like he had seen a ghost?
Could Wang Hong not feel shocked?
This was his boss!
Wang Hong's forehead was covered in sweat, as he wiped it away, he stamred, "Pre... President, You're joking, how could I dare to bla you..."
President?
What's going on here?
For a ti, Du ii hadn't co to her senses.
But it's also normal; ever since Du ii returned from overseas, she had always been a housewife, and she only watched soap operas on TV all day.
It was normal for her not to recognize Lin Xi.
In fact, at this point, even if Du ii was slower on the uptake, she could almost guess Lin Xi's identity.
After all, her husband's commanding aura was significant, to make her husband show such an expression, except for...
