131: Chapter 127 Hu Jing 131: Chapter 127 Hu Jing The following morning, as Ye Fan entered the office, Yang Yongxi, Xie Junru, and even Su Meizhen immediately fixed their eyes on him. “Why is everyone staring at me? Did I become much handsomer in just a few days?” Ye Fan joked with a chuckle. Yang Yongxi laughed heartily, “Ye Bro, you’re really funny.” “Ye Fan, come clean, what’s your relationship with the Chairman?” Xie Junru asked with a smile. The others all showed a keen, gossipy interest. “Well, actually, she’s my wife,” Ye Fan joked. “Come on, who would believe that?” everyone in the office shook their heads, laughing in disbelief. Helplessly, Ye Fan spread his hands and said, “Then what do you think my relationship with her is?” “I guess you must be the Chairman’s cousin! Or maybe your family is very close to the Chairman’s family,” Xie Junru guessed with a laugh. “Hehe, you guessed it right,” Ye Fan laughed. “I indeed am a distant cousin of the Chairman. But, you all have to keep this a secret.” Ye Fan knew asking them to keep it a secret was in vain as he believed the whole group would know by half a day. However, there wasn’t much he could do because ever since Li Zhaojun had officially appointed him as the new company’s Deputy HR Manager, it inevitably led everyone to speculate endlessly about his relationship with Li Zhaojun. So he might as well go along with them, admitting to the cousin relationship to prevent them from wildly speculating and getting closer to the real truth. “I guessed right, didn’t I?” Xie Junru turned to Yang Yongxi and the others excitedly. “Hehe, Brother Ye, you’ve kept it well hidden,” Yang Yongxi said with a smile, his face showing a hint of ingratiation. “Now that you’re moving up and leaving this place, shouldn’t you treat us?” “Yes, yes, treat us!” the others joined in the teasing. “Alright then. Tonight let’s go for dinner and then hit the KTV. Chief Su, you should come too,” Ye Fan proposed with a smile. “Hehe, thank you. But I’m much older than you all, pretty much an old auntie here, and can’t keep up with the pace of you youngsters, so I’ll pass on the fun,” Su Meizhen said with an awkward smile. Ye Fan knew why she felt awkward, it must be because of that fifty thousand yuan issue. Without insisting, Ye Fan asked, “By the way, where is the new company’s office?” “The eighth floor,” answered Xie Junru and Yang Yongxi, among others, competing to respond. “Oh, I’ll go take a look now, then move my things,” Ye Fan said, then turned and walked out of the office. However, he didn’t head straight to the eighth floor but to Lu Xiaoman’s office instead. Upon knocking and entering, Lu Xiaoman greeted him with a serene smile on her pretty face. “Haha, Sister Xiaoman,” Ye Fan greeted her with a laugh as he came in. Lu Xiaoman stepped closer to Ye Fan, her pretty face tilted upward, her bright eyes looking at his face with concern, “Ye Fan, where have you been these past five or six days? Did you take a leave from the company?” “I left Hua Hai city,” Ye Fan replied openly, looking at Lu Xiaoman’s concerned face. “A comrade of mine unfortunately passed away, so I went to his funeral.” “Ah!” Lu Xiaoman exclaimed, her expression turning solemn, empathetically asking, “He must have been a good friend of yours? You must be very sad?” “Mhm, naturally sad,” Ye Fan replied. Lu Xiaoman gently took his right hand with her delicate hands and held it, comforting him, “The deceased has passed, please accept my condolences.” Ye Fan nodded and said, “Thanks for your comforting words.” “But, hehe, I’m not so easily disheartened.” As he spoke, he smiled. “Mm, I like you like this,” Lu Xiaoman said with her pretty face blushing slightly. Perhaps feeling she had been too blunt, she quickly changed the subject, “By the way, you’ve been promoted to assistant manager, congratulations.” “Hehe, it’s not because of my own abilities, it’s nothing to be congratulated.” Ye Fan said, “Are you free tonight? I’ve invited Yang Yongxi, Xie Junru, and the others for dinner and karaoke. Come join us.” As he spoke, Ye Fan placed his other hand on hers, gently holding Lu Xiaoman’s soft hands and feeling their smoothness and soft, boneless touch. “Mm.” Lu Xiaoman shyly replied, her head slightly bowed. After a tender moment with Lu Xiaoman, Ye Fan reluctantly left her office and took the elevator to the eighth floor to find his new office. The office on the eighth floor had been vacated by the group and temporarily given to the newly formed Emali Biomedical for office use. Ye Fan walked halfway down the corridor and finally found the Human Resources office and the HR Manager’s office signposted next to each other. He knocked on the door of the HR Manager’s office, and immediately a charming, beautiful voice came out, “Come in.” Upon entering, Ye Fan saw the glamorous woman sitting at the desk and couldn’t help but pause. Was this vixen-like beautiful woman not Hu Jing, one of the three golden flowers of the Emali Group? How did she become my immediate superior? While Ye Fan was still in shock, Hu Jing had already recognized him. Though Ye Fan had only recently joined Emali Group, his deed of saving Lu Xiaoman and taking down He Jiaqiang had made him known to many in the group. “Ye Fan, right?” Hu Jing got up with a seductive smile. As she stood, her enticing figure immediately stood out, becoming the center of the entire office, and the whole office seemed to brighten a few times. She sashayed from behind the desk, leaving a trail of intoxicating fragrance as she passed by Ye Fan and then sat down on a neighboring sofa, crossing her legs to prevent any revealing mishaps. “Let’s sit and talk.” Hu Jing elegantly and delicately started making tea, inviting Ye Fan without lifting her head. Ye Fan took a few steps closer and then sat down on a sofa chair beside her. After Ye Fan sat down, Hu Jing lifted her foxy eyes and said, “I’ve looked over your file, roughly know what you’re about. I’m not going to beat around the bush. Let me put it this way, I don’t expect you to put much effort into your work, just don’t mess up the department, and you can freely arrange your own time.” Ye Fan didn’t expect Hu Jing to be so direct; he had thought that, having a connection through skirt tails, Hu Jing would surely be more polite and try to win him over as the vice leader. However, Hu Jing’s words were also to his taste, as there was no need for probing or beating around the bush. He had entered Emali Group just to pass the days, never intending to achieve any remarkable feats, so he was more than happy to be offered a lax role. “Hehe, sounds good,” Ye Fan responded with a light smile. … … In the CEO and President’s office, Li Zhaojun finished approving a document and noticed it was already past ten. “He should have met with Hu Jing by now,” she suddenly muttered to herself, “This flirtatious and shallow guy, meeting Hu Jing, must be utterly bewitched and have his head turned. Lu Xiaoman will soon be forgotten. Hu Jing has her ways to charm men, but she never really plays for keeps, especially not with someone as frivolous, naive, shallow, and lazy as him.” Though she looked down on Ye Fan, that didn’t mean she could tolerate him fooling around with women under her watch. Certainly, deep down, she also wasn’t pleased with Ye Fan having more-than-friendly interactions with other women, though she wouldn’t admit it.
