Chapter 23

There are still two days till Monday ; Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday night, Jiang Yuan washed her hair with that shampoo and then did it with the man again. On Sunday, she suddenly fell into a nervous mood.

If she went to work for Sheng Yuan, she would inevitably meet Zhong Jing in the future.

She doesn’t know how much the public relations department has contact with Zhong Jing in the usual business.

The two were so close that even if they couldn’t hear or see each other, their sense of touch and smell didn’t fail. She felt that if she had contact with him for some more time, he would definitely recognize her.

She couldn’t tell in her heart whether she wanted him to recognize her or not. The former is anticipation and the latter is afraid of embarrassment and hurt.

She had only met Zhong Jing twice but those two times were enough to let her know that he was a cold and unapproachable person. He never looked at her directly from the beginning till the end.

She even wondered why a man like Zhong Jing who must have no shortage of women around him would be willing or happy to be entangled with her, an invisible woman?

Either it was novelty or convenience, she suppose.

Or, in his imagination, she is not as ordinary and inconspicuous as she is in reality.

She is afraid he might have imagined her either as a demonic female ghost or an amazing fairy.

Jiang Yuan looked at her beautiful and lovely eyebrows in the mirror and her expression darkened.

Don’t expect, don’t expect anything, you won’t get hurt without expecting, she whispered to herself.

On Monday, she woke up very early, washed up and ate a simple breakfast and when she was waiting for the bus, she suddenly received a call from her father, Jiang Nian, asking how she was doing recently. After a few conversation, he suddenly asked her if she has any money on hand? The store’s cash flow is too tight and he wants a little money from her .

Jiang Yuan didn’t work long and didn’t have much savings. She told her father that she only has 20,000 yuan and Jiang Nian said that 20,000 yuan would be enough.

Jiang Yuan said that she will transfer it to him later.

After hanging up, Jiang Yuan transferred the money. She was thankful that she had found a job so quickly otherwise she would eat dirt next month.

After reaching the bus stop, she walked for some distance to the Shengyuan Group Building.

It was the beautiful lady at the front desk last time. She told the other party her name and that she came to report for the job today. The other woman smiled sweetly: “My name is Xiao Xiao and I will be your colleague from now on. You can go to the personnel department to register and go through the formalities. At that time, someone will take you to your department.—Oh, I don’t know if the staffs of the personnel department has started working or not, they may have not come yet so why don’t you go up and wait for a while.”

Jiang Yuan smiled, “Okay, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Just as another female colleague came into the lobby, Xiao Xiao stopped her, “Linda, this is a new colleague from the public relations department. You just happened to go up, can you take her up?”

“The public relations department?—” Lin Da looked at Jiang Yuan with a strange look for a while and smiled, “Okay, let’s go.”

Jiang Yuan didn’t understand what was wrong with the PR department and why did Linda react this way?

She was about to follow Linda when someone came in from outside the gate, Xiao Xiao’s already sweet voice became a little sweeter, “Mr. Zhong, good morning!”

Linda also turned around to say hello, ” Good morning, Mr Zhong.”

Jiang Yuan’s heart beat faster and her whole body becomes stiff, she didn’t know what to do and she didn’t expect to meet Zhong Jing so soon.

Zhong Jing nodded lightly at the two girls in front and then turned his eyes to Jiang Yuan behind, frowning and thinking and remembering that Xuan Lu had mentioned this person to him. He lightly said: “Coming to work today?”

Jiang Yuan blushed instantly and stammered: “Yes, yes, Mr. Zhong…”

Zhong Jing nodded at her then went straight past them and walked towards straight to the elevator that the president took exclusively. .

Jiang Yuan followed Linda to take another elevator. In the elevator, Jiang Yuan’s nervousness eased. Linda asked, “You know our Mr Zhong before?

” Not really.”

“Then how does he know you?”

“Because Xuan Lu—” The words came out and she realized that she was too stupid. It was not good for her to talk about this relationship. It was like telling others that she came in by connection.

“Oh—no wonder.” Linda didn’t blame her on this point, “Hey, you must know, are Mr. Zhong and Xuan Lu a couple? There’s a lot of talk about a business marriage and there are more and more cooperations with Huashi , the two of them are such a good match, right?”

Jiang Yuan was stunned, does the outside world view Zhong Jing and Xuan Lu like this?

She shook her head, “…I don’t know.”

Linda glanced at her and smiled, “Look at you, why are you so serious, gossip is human nature and gossip is the best way for us low-level employees to get closer to each other. You’ll find out after a long time.”

At this time, the elevator reached the fifth floor, the elevator door opened and Linda pointed to the door and said, “Okay, the public relations department is on this floor.”

Jiang Yuan got out of the elevator.

Linda suddenly said, “Take care of your minister.”

The elevator door closed and Jiang Yuan didn’t even have time to ask her what she meant.

She just came and was told to take care of the minister, what does it mean?

But soon, she knew what it meant.

She waited for half an hour on the empty fifth floor before a man in a wheelchair came up.

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment. Before she could speak, the other party asked her with a cold face: “Are you new here?”

Jiang Yuan nodded, “Yes, my name is Jiang Yuan, who are you?—” The

man’s wheelchair was automatic and he flipped the forward switch ignoring her question and went straight ahead.

Jiang Yuan had to keep up, he was not slow so she had to jog. Jiang Yuan thought to herself that this man is probably the head of their department and because he is disabled, Linda told her to take care of him.

However, why does he look so similar to Zhong Jing? It’s just that he looks older than Zhong Jing.

Later, as Linda said, Jiang Yuan inevitably became a member of the masses who gossip about the private life of high-level executives and learned shocking information from them. Her new boss is Zhong Ze, who is Zhong Jing’s older brother. He lost his sexual ability and a pair of legs in order to save his girlfriend from a car accident three years ago. Later, his girlfriend cheated on him and he has never recovered since then. Now he is hanging out in the company and just messing around.

She is the special caretaker that the company invited to accompany Zhong Ze. Linda patted her on the shoulder sympathizing with her and teasing her with a bit of drama. She advised her;” Don’t be annoyed when you get angry with him, he’s pissed off the previous ones a few times and they all ran away, I hope you can hold on for a while longer.
