C10 This Woman Was Courting Death

"Teacher He, it's no surprise your team is always in last place. Now I truly understand why!" Group A Leader Zhu Wei remarked with scorn.

In her eyes, Group D was never a contender.

And today, Hee Chen had invited more trouble, ensuring that this year, their team would undoubtedly finish last again!

"Exactly. Some people have such limited aspirations. How can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan? No wonder they're perpetually at the bottom. But I do owe you thanks for taking on such dead weight for us."

The other group leaders sneered at Hee Chen.

"Our team members are every bit as good as yours!"

Hee Chen countered firmly, believing that his team simply hadn't found the right approach yet.

"Hmph!"

The members of the other three groups turned their backs on him.

Hee Chen was concerned that Su Rann might be overwhelmed on her first day, so he approached her.

"Let's head to the office. You must believe in yourself. Eventually, we'll show them our true capabilities!"

Hee Chen continued to bolster Su Rann's spirits, urging her not to lose heart.

Joining Group D didn't mean all hope was lost.

He was like a tirelessly supportive mother, endlessly encouraging.

Su Rann remained silent, following in his footsteps.

As Su Rann and Hee Chen approached, the office was abuzz with hushed conversations.

By contrast, when they had passed by Group A, everyone was diligently at work.

"Today, I'd like to introduce a new colleague!"

Hee Chen and Su Rann entered, one after the other.

"Team Leader Hee, impressive! Where did you find such an ethereal beauty?"

"Wow, she's dazzling! She looks like a nymph straight out of a painting. How does the saying go? 'Her hands are tender, her skin like creamy jade. With a charming smile and hopeful eyes.'"

Chi Xin felt a surge of jealousy as she watched the men in the group fixate on the newcomer, her hands involuntarily balling into fists. She was supposed to be the favorite here!

Without a word, Su Rann walked past them and took a seat on the side.

"What? She's actually sitting next to Young Master Jiang? Doesn't she know that nobody is supposed to sit beside him?"

"Seriously, she's stirring up trouble on her very first day? Doesn't she realize that everyone in the company is too afraid to cross him?"

...

Many were holding their breath on her behalf.

At that moment, Chi Xin couldn't help but smile.

She couldn't believe this woman was practically signing her own death warrant on her first day!

She had brought this upon herself!

Meanwhile, Jiang Zhehan was engrossed in his game, apparently at a crucial juncture. Even as people from the team arrived and cheers erupted around him, he didn't look up.

It was as if he was in a world of his own, completely detached from his surroundings.

The office, previously abuzz with activity, fell silent as Su Rann made her way toward Young Master Jiang.

You could have heard a pin drop.

Su Rann took a seat right next to him, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Did she really just sit down? Right next to Young Master Jiang?"

Someone gasped in disbelief.

With a resounding snap, Jiang Zhehan slammed his phone down on the desk.

"What's all the noise about?!"

He exuded an aura of icy detachment.
