C9 Secretary to the President

The August sun was poisonous. The hot sunlight penetrated through the glass, and the cracks of the light curtain shone on Yan Xi's pale and faintly bruised face. She frowned, pursed her cracked lips, and rubbed her eyes.

The sun was so bright that she could barely keep her eyes open. At the same time, she felt the pain of being soaked in the sea.

About ten seconds later, Yan Xi slowly opened her eyes. After Chen Shuhong left last night, Yan Xi fell into a deep slumber.

Heh, the sunlight is very bright today. Yan Xi sighed in her heart. However, this sunlight didn't match at all. It was the sour and musty smell in the air.

Lee Yichen had been smoking and drinking all year round. This sour and stinky smell of alcohol seemed to have permeated into the walls. No matter what flavor freshener Yan Xi used, it could not cover up this smell.

To Yan Xi, this "home" was no different from hell.

The quilt on the bed was scattered, along with a few dirty clothes that Lee Yichen didn't wear. Yan Xi turned her head to look at the corner of the bed and confirmed that Lee Yichen didn't come back for the night.

As for where he went, she couldn't be bothered to care about that.

Yan Xi habitually took out her cell phone from under her pillow. It was already 11. Although it was a workday today, she was probably fired by Kin Zongliang.

However, when her gaze shifted to the bottom of the screen, she saw that there were three missed calls. Unexpectedly … It was a call from the HR Department's Sister Wang. She was the HR Department's supervisor before the company had been acquired.

Yan Xi immediately sat up and returned the call.

"Du …" Du … "Du …" The phone rang three times before it was picked up. "Yan Xi, why didn't you come to work today?"

Yan Xi shook her head, thinking that she had misheard.

"Sister Wang?" What did you say? Work? Didn't I already get expelled? "

"Hur hur, hurry up and come to the company. I have something to explain to you." Sister Wang laughed coldly on the phone. Her tone was strange as well. Yan Xi was a little confused.

She got out of bed, put on a new dress, took a taxi, and hurried to the company in a daze.

Could it be … Was he going to announce his expulsion in public? But that's good too, after what happened last night, Yan Xi really didn't know how to face Kin Zongliang in the future.

Twenty minutes later, Yan Xi arrived at the company building. She was surprised to find that the entire company was packing up, making a racket and making a mess. There were also several high-end buses parked in front of the company as if they were about to move.

Yan Xi took a deep breath and walked into the company building.

The company's Sis Wang was sitting at the reception desk in the lobby of the first floor. Her wavy curls floated messily over her face, her face was dark, her eyes were lined with crow's feet, her cheeks were drooping slightly, and her rosy lips made her look slightly tacky.

She saw Yan Xi and waved at her sternly.

"Sister Wang, I'm sorry I'm late." Yan Xi tried her best to force a smile to make herself look less embarrassed, and the bruises on her face were slightly painful after being pulled.

"Is the company moving?" Yan Xi asked.

Sister Wang didn't answer right away. Instead, she looked Yan Xi up and down, as if she was looking at a strange creature. Yan Xi felt uncomfortable.

At the same time, she noticed that it wasn't just Sister Wang, everyone in the company seemed to be watching her from behind. She could also feel that those eyes were not friendly at all, but were filled with contempt and mockery.

"... Hair... What happened? " Yan Xi asked carefully.

"Congratulations, you've been promoted." Sister Wang said with a sneer, her tone full of sarcasm.

"What?" You've been promoted? " Yan Xi had thought that Sister Wang was here to settle the paperwork for her departure and get promoted. How is this possible?

"Hurry up and pack up. Today, the company will move to the World Trade Center where Kin Group Group is located."

Yan Xi was stupefied and couldn't recover for a long time.

"Then what is my position?"

"CEO Secretary, congratulations." The corner of Sister Wang's mouth twisted into a strange smile. "I couldn't tell, but you're quite capable."

Yan Xi's heart skipped a beat and her face turned ashen. In an instant, she understood what had happened.

The secretary of the CEO, this must be Kin Zongliang's intentions, it seems like he didn't let me off … Maybe he was trying to buy his company and raise his position. Maybe he was doing it on purpose.

"Alright, thank you, Sister Wang." Yan Xi gritted her teeth and nodded politely after saying that, purposely avoiding Sister Wang's gaze. That gaze made Yan Xi feel uncomfortable, slashing her face as if she was wearing a blade.

Turning around, she struggled to move her stiff legs and walked towards the elevator.

"Is she that Yan Xi? I've never heard of her before, but she doesn't seem that handsome."

While she was waiting for the elevator, Yan Xi heard a voice whispering behind her. It must be her.

"Yeah, I really didn't expect that she would be together with CEO Kin …"

"That's right, I heard that she's already married. I didn't expect her to be so indiscreet."

"I really didn't notice it in the past, but it seems like you really can't judge a book by its cover, hur hur."

"That's right, I really saw it this time. It's really improving step by step."

With her back facing them, Yan Xi seemed to have added a few more people into the discussion. Her voice was getting louder and louder. They clearly saw that Yan Xi was standing right in front of them, so they must have done it on purpose.

Yan Xi clenched her fists tightly and lowered her head slightly, a burning sensation on her face.

Everyone must have seen the headline. She wanted to refute it, but how could she refute it? The photo was just there, and she was at her wit's end.

The elevator slowly descended from the 20th floor to the 1st floor. It seemed like a century had passed in the process. Yan Xi quickly stepped into the elevator, followed by a few chattering women. They still stood behind Yan Xi.

Their gazes seemed to have landed on Yan Xi, who had already started sweating profusely, as if she was naked and standing in front of them.

She was very afraid of the current situation, but she had no choice but to endure it.

Arriving at her previous office, Yan Xi found that it was empty. Everything had been emptied and her things were scattered in two cardboard boxes. They were thrown like garbage in front of the door. Alone, it seemed like a mockery.

Yan Xi smiled bitterly, shook her head, picked up the box and left.
