Chapter 170: Marrying A Rich Lady (3)

Nan Youyou chose the wrong issue to use as her weapon. Nine out of ten people had eaten in the office before. No one could run away from the accusation.

Nan Youyou just realized her mistake now and regretted her actions immediately. She was too emotional.

She was reminded of what happened yesterday when she saw Ming Shu.

I need to control myself better next time.

Nan Youyou made this promise to herself. But how would she get out of this situation…

“You You, can you help me look at this table?”

Someone helped Nan Youyou.

Nan Youyou was relieved and instantly walked over.

Jiang Duo walked out of the room with a downtrodden expression. Nan Youyou glanced at her unintentionally. Her eyes were filled with a hatred that only she understood.

Jiang Duo didn’t notice Nan Youyou’s gaze, but Ming Shu did. Nan Youyou saw Ming Shu smiling at her the minute she turned around. The smile was gentle, but Nan Youyou felt that it was also very piercing. It was like a thorn that pricked into her heart and she couldn’t help feeling agitated.

Luckily, Jiang Duo blocked their views of each other.

Strangely, she heaved a sigh of relief. A ball of anger started to rise in her as Nan Youyou wondered, Why am I afraid of her?

The Host didn’t have many things to do. After all, she was still an intern and they wouldn’t assign any important tasks to her.

Ming Shu recalled the things that the Host did and started working in an organized manner after she finished her custard buns.

Her job was very boring. All she had to do was design some forms and help other people sort their materials.

Compared to her, Jiang Duo was much busier. She kept moving between her desk and Shen Yuanzhao’s office.

The rest of their colleagues either looked at her with jealousy or envy. Nan Youyou seemed to be thinking about something as she stared at Jiang Duo.

When Shen Yuanzhao finally left with his bodyguards, Spinning Top Duo finally managed to lie on her desk in exhaustion and caught her breath.

Ming Shu’s and Jiang Duo’s desks were opposite each other. She could see the despair on her face.

Jiang Duo: Xiao Li, do you think that the devil is bullying me on purpose?

A conversation popped up on Ming Shu’s computer.

The owner was just opposite her.

Ming Shu thought for a while and typed with one hand.

Ruan Li: Hitting means like and scolding means love. Maybe Boss Shen likes you.

Jiang Duo looked up at Ming Shu in shock and looked down again. She hit her keyboard very hard while she typed.

Jiang Duo: Do you torture someone when you like them? Is he crazy?

Her words were filled with disdain.

Ruan Li: He’s the CEO. You must understand that they don’t know how to express themselves. What shall we eat for lunch?

After conversing for so long, Ming Shu finally typed out her thoughts.

Jiang Duo: The canteen should have braised ribs and Kung Pao chicken today. I am so hungry after running around the entire morning.

Ruan Li: Let’s go and eat.

Jiang Duo: It is not lunchtime yet… there are still five minutes left. Persevere!

Ming Shu gave up typing and looked up at Jiang Duo. Jiang Duo was looking at her with resentment, too. The two foodies saw hunger in each other’s eyes.

“Jiang Duo, please go and send these documents downstairs.” A lady suddenly dumped a pile of documents on Jiang Duo’s desk and without waiting for a reply, she placed another pile of documents on Ming Shu’s desk “This is needed tomorrow. Please finish this by 2 pm and pass it to me.”

Dang—

The clock struck 12.

The lady turned around and said to the others, “Sisters, let’s go eat now.”

Jiang Duo was used to being ordered around. She picked up the documents and started looking at them even though she was sad.

I feel so wronged, but I shall keep quiet.

There were three interns in this office: Jiang Duo, Ruan Li, and Nan Youyou.

Nan Youyou was a princess. Who dared to order her around?

Hence, most of the workload fell on Ruan Li and Jiang Duo.

Ruan Li had a strong background. When she got really irritated, her temper would come out and she was not easily bullied.

Only Jiang Duo was left.

Sometimes she couldn’t eat because of the tasks that were suddenly assigned to her.

These people definitely did it on purpose. They had the whole morning to ask her, but only did so just before work ended.

Ming Shu didn’t bother with the documents and stretched. On behalf of the breakfast that Jiang Duo brought for her, Ming Shu knocked on her desk and said, “Let’s go eat.”

“Ah…” Jiang Duo looked at her with devastation. “But there is so much work to do.”

“This isn’t your job.” Ming Shu flipped through the documents in her hand. “They’re just bullying you.”

“But…” Jiang Duo knew that they did it on purpose. However, she wanted to stay here and had to endure it.

She was just an intern and had no background. It was really hard to find a job nowadays.

“Are you coming?” Ming Shu didn’t want to waste time and listen to her nonsense.

“I… I’m not coming. You can go ahead and pass me your portion. I can help you finish it,” Jiang Duo said softly.

Ming Shu couldn’t be bothered by her and left.

Jiang Duo breathed in deeply and started working.

The company’s working system was very well-planned. There was a two-hour break in the afternoon and work only resumed at 2 pm. Jiang Duo finished her work and looked at the undelivered documents. She hurriedly grabbed the documents and rushed to the elevator.

The elevator door opened. Jiang Duo ran in.

She ran into someone.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Jiang Duo started apologizing profusely before looking at the person.

“What are you doing? Are you being chased by a ghost?” Ming Shu’s gentle voice sounded in the elevator.

Jiang Duo heard the familiar voice and was relieved. “No, I’m rushing to send this off.”

Ming Shu was speechless for a second before passing her the food that was still steaming. “Let me help you.”

Jiang Duo took the food blankly and muttered, “It’s okay, I’ll be back quickly.”

Ming Shu snatched the documents from her. “Don’t waste food.”

Jiang Duo hesitated for a while. She was really hungry. Her stomach cramped painfully from hunger.

“Then I will have to trouble you, Xiao Li. Let me treat you after work today at my house.”

Ming Shu was filled with anticipation and gave an OK sign.

The female protagonist made such delicious food. No wonder bosses liked ladies who knew how to cook.

She liked them, too.

Ming Shu took the documents to the assigned department. The department wanted her to sign on the document. Ming Shu took the pen and was just about to sign when she suddenly paused. “Last time the documents I sent didn’t need any signature. Why do I need to sign today?”

The employee explained, “This document needs to be transferred to other departments. If a problem occurs, it’s easier to find the person responsible. Hence, a signature is needed.”

Ming Shu put down the pen. “Can you pass me the document to have a look.”

The employee looked at her curiously and passed her the documents.

Ming Shu opened them and read ten sentences at a time.

She was an experienced player that had visited many worlds. She could still understand this type of document.

“This document has an issue. Let me take it back.”

The employee caught on to something. Office politics were always intense. He said, “Then you can pass me the documents before you finish work today.”

Ming Shu smiled and patted the document. “This is not my job, I’m just running an errand. If you have any questions, you can find the one who wrote this.”

The employee: “…”

When Ming Shu was going up, she went into the same elevator as Shen Yuanzhao.

Ming Shu studied him blatantly. He was indeed handsome.

Ming Shu grinned. “Boss is taking the elevator with us today?” Shen Yuanzhao had his own personalized elevator.

Wait a minute…

If the person running the errand were Jiang Duo…

Tsk, this scheming.

Shen Yuanzhao didn’t have a strong impression of the girl in front of him, but he remembered her from the night before.

“The elevator malfunctioned.” Shen Yuanzhao decided to answer her.
