When he heard the question, Green Dragon paused his steps and raised his eyebrows, asking, “Who said that?”
“Everyone knows that, there has never been any woman around the president before, right?” The middle-aged senior manager had a doubtful expression as he asked seriously, “Other than business talks, I would like to introduce someone to the president today as well. My niece is quite wonderful and comes from a sterling family background. Besides that, she is well-educated and is very good at taking care of people. I'm just wondering about what the president would think of her.”
Green Dragon suddenly laughed when he heard it, and replied, “You don't need to know what the president would think. Hand over your work to me and you may leave.”
What?
The middle-aged senior manager stared wide-eyed at him and said, “Executive a.s.sistant Long, do you know what you are saying? Are you trying to fire me? Only the president has the authority to do so.”
Green Dragon replied in an elegant manner, “This is the president's decision. What he said previously is to deal with you, not the reporters outside the door. He simply did not provide clear instructions for it. However, Manager Du, you should never harbor the intention to meddle in the president's private affairs. Moreover, the president does not like his personal information to be exposed and never accepts any interviews from the media. Are you not aware of this, despite being in Jue Wei Corporation for such a long time?”
“I know that I didn't think about it carefully about the reporters, but I've never thought about prying into the president's private affairs.” The middle-aged senior manager grabbed Green Dragon's arm and said with a low tone, “Executive a.s.sistant Long, let me talk to the president again. Who knows, maybe the president would really fancy her? I'm not crossing the line, right… ”
“Manager Du, we have known each other for a year.” Green Dragon's att.i.tude was gentle, but he began to agree with the words often said by his master. These stupid humans were really dirty from head to toe, and were extremely greedy. This made him feel dejected as he replied, “Let me give you a word of advice. It's better not to talk to the president about things like this.” If his master became impatient and killed him, he would have to find a way to suppress the rumors. After all, it seemed rather unconvincing to say that a higher-up from Jue Wei Corporation had jumped off the building for no apparent reason. Green Dragon pondered to himself and continued, “If the president finds out that you wanted to arrange a date for him, believe me, the consequence will be worse than simply being fired… You don't wish to suffer so horribly, that you would rather die, do you? So, just stay put and keep those thoughts to yourself.”
The middle-aged senior manager's complexion turned ashen pale instantly.
The reporters outside the building were still there. Ever since Green Dragon came, he had become the executive a.s.sistant who could handle anything. Especially when facing the media, he always had his own methods to deal with them.
The middle-aged senior manager was still standing there, his presence sticking out like a sore thumb. The attention he received was different from before, causing him to feel extremely miserable and unsatisfied.
Everyone had left, so Du Sisi finally managed to squeeze her way in. Wondering what happened when she saw her uncle's expression, she instantly asked, “Uncle, what's wrong? Why is your expression so bad?”
The middle-aged senior manager was still submerged in his thoughts. In his opinion, making the president meet his niece was clearly a good thing, and not something overly serious. Even if the president refuses, they can still be friends. Executive a.s.sistant Long was being too overbearing!
“Uncle?” Du Sisi saw that her uncle was silent, and thus began to have doubts about the meeting later.
The middle-aged senior manager waved his hand and a.s.sured her, “It's nothing. Some people have been with the president for a long time and really think that they could make decisions for the president. I'm fine, but Sisi, did you see the president just now?”
“There were too many people, so I couldn't see him clearly. However, he looks quite tall from the back.” Love and adoration bubbled in Du Sisi's heart when she thought of that handsome face again. Although she could only vaguely see his figure, from Du Sisi's many years of experience, she could recognize that he was definitely the crème de la crème of men. He was so graceful and elegant, like a fine wine that had been aged for centuries.
The middle-aged senior manager laughed and quickly shook his disappointment away, saying, “The president is not only just tall. If you saw his face, you will definitely thank me for bringing you here. However, let's forget about it for now. I still need to discuss some matters with Executive a.s.sistant Long. If a chance appears, I'll let you meet him in private next time.”
The middle-aged senior manager was simply making a.s.sumptions based on his own judgment. In his opinion, this was definitely a pleasant arrangement. After all, the president was single, no man who would ever dislike beautiful women.
Additionally, his niece was not promiscuous or uncivilized. Not only was she a successful lawyer, but she was also very subservient and compromising. He personally believed that she was a perfect match for the president.
Du Sisi was also happy to hear that, and said, “Then, I will leave for today. I have a cla.s.s reunion this afternoon. When you manage to arrange a meeting for us, please give me a call.”
“Sure.” The middle-aged senior manager glanced at his watch and said, “Go ahead, if all goes well, I'm sure I could set up a meeting tomorrow.” He would need to find time to have a pleasant conversation with the president, not just for his niece, but also for his sake. What authority does Executive a.s.sistant Long have to fire me? Who knows, maybe the president would be elated when he hears about meeting my niece!
Du Sisi did not realize that her uncle's predicament had begun to change because of his nosy involvement. She even a.s.sumed that her uncle and the other party had reached a consensus, believing that he had found out about her and dying to be with her.
When she thought about it, Du Sisi was in seventh heaven. Furthermore, when she thought about teaching that despicable woman a terrible lesson later, her smile grew wider and brighter.
At 1 p.m., Helian Wei Wei rode her BMW Tomahawk and brought Little Qingchen to Galaxy SOHO, a huge shopping mall located in the inner city of Capital. The majestic building covered more than 50,000 square meters, with 330,000 square meters of floor area in total. With all the major businesses and offices gathered within it, it was splendidly palatial and had beautiful architecture.
Of course, there were also many shops and retailers in it. Since the cla.s.s reunion was held at the Starbucks in the mall, it would be convenient to have their meal here.
Little Qingchen stretched out his short legs and jumped off the motorcycle. Then, he cutely carried the small school bag and held Helian Wei Wei's hand with his little hand. His expression was crisp and cold, just like a little prince.
Helian Wei Wei was wearing a trendy pair of jeans and a khaki hat, not wanting to wear a skirt as she was riding the bike. With the keys in her hand and her chestnut-colored hair hanging gracefully behind her, Helian Wei Wei seemed to exude an indescribable beauty.
Her outfit did not make her look ordinary. Instead, it made her stand out. Even though she did not have makeup on her face, her complexion was still as fair as winter snow.
Helian Wei Wei looked around at the shops, and lowered her head to ask her son, “What do you want to eat? What about hot pot?”
“No.” Little Qingchen was poking his little palm, as he looked up obediently and added, “Let's have hot pot when big brother comes back.”
Helian Wei Wei caressed her son's hair and turned to look at a shop next to her, asking, “So, what should we eat now?”
“Pretty Weiwei.” Little Qingchen sighed and looked into Helian Wei Wei's eyes, saying, “You have looked at Burger King more than five times since you came in. If you want to have it, we can go to Burger King.”
Helian Weiwei was not embarra.s.sed after being exposed and simply smiled as she replied, “Okay, let us eat at Burger King. A new menu was released recently. It's really good. It also has a layer of tempura vegetables inside, which makes it really crispy when you take a bit. You would definitely like it.”
Little Qingchen always knew that Helian Wei Wei would only eat at Burger King when she wanted fast food, she would not even touch the food from other shops like KFC.
Undoubtedly, when Baili Jia Jue and Baili Shangexie were not around.
The task of pampering Helian Wei Wei would fall on Little Qingchen's shoulders.
Little Qingchen would surely prioritize the place, knowing that Helian Wei Wei wanted to eat there. He queued up cooly to order the food, occasionally tilting his head to stare at the pictures of the new menu.
The waitress had seen plenty of children ordering their own meals, but she had never seen a child ordering for his mother. It was really adorable to watch Little Qingchen ordering the food.
“It doesn't seem to be enough, would you like to add another burger?” The waiter saw that Little Qingchen had only ordered a burger set and reminded him with a smile, a.s.suming that he had ordered wrongly.
Unexpectedly, Little Qingchen shook his head seriously and said, “I can't let mother have too much oily food and Coccola, it's bad for her health.”
The waiter was speechless when she heard his mature response…
The parents queueing up was dumbfounded as well…
Those were the words that a mother would always tell their children, yet now it was the other way round!
Everyone would surely want a son who loved their mother like that!
Little Qingchen was just tall enough for him to reach the bar counter to grab straws. He raised his heels and pressed the dispenser for two straws. Then, he asked for an empty cup for the water, before staggering his way toward Helian Wei Wei with the tray of food.
Little Qingchen was good at everything, but he always forgot to roll up his sleeves and would rub his face against it.
During these moments, he would pause for a moment and glance behind him. No one's there, brother is not back yet.
Helian Wei Wei was aware of what the little guy was thinking. Looking at Qingchen's apathetic look, she hugged her son's head and kissed him, saying, “I'll bring you to the arcade upstairs to play later. Let's catch a little devil doll that looks like your brother for him. What do you think?”
“Okay!” Qingchen's eyes lighted up at once. However, he was still very gentlemanly as he wiped his little head with a napkin and stared at Helian Weiwei, as if he had a bad headache, saying, “Pretty Wei Wei, how many times have I told you, please don't kiss me in public.”
Helian Wei Wei responded absent-mindedly and kissed her son's face again.
Of course, Little Qingchen had a very calm and genteel personality. He helped Helian Wei Wei to pour half of a cup of cola into another empty cup. Then, he sat there and squeezed the ketchup from its sachet with a frown on his face. In some aspects, the father and the two sons were all the same. When dining, they would all act like gentlemen. It was probably the elegance and decorous gene in their blood, which was exclusive to the devils' proprieties.
While munching the fries in her mouth, Helian Wei Wei lowered her head to help Qingchen roll up his sleeves.
The scene was reflected on the transparent gla.s.s beside them, appearing loving and heartwarming.
Alas, someone was furiously irked when they saw it.
Li Meng was coming out from an elevator in a pair of ten-centimeter high heels, while holding onto Little Fatty Cheng who was gobbling up ice cream.
Three female cla.s.smates were behind her as they had arrived before Li Meng for lunch there. After that, they would visit Starbucks for a cup of coffee and some desserts to make it a complete day.
However, Li Meng did not expect Helian Wei Wei there. She actually arrived ahead of me with her disgusting illegitimate son.
Well, if that's the case, don't blame me for making the first move!
Li Meng pushed her long hair behind her ears and wore a fake saccharine smile on her face.
The three female cla.s.smates behind her had also seen the scene in Burger King and could not help exclaiming, “That's Helian Wei Wei!”
“Is the boy sitting opposite her, her son?”
“It should be, but Helian Wei Wei really is amazing. Her beautiful looks have not changed at all, she's still as pretty as before.”
“What's the use of being pretty, didn't you hear what Li Meng said? She's just a mechanic now.”
“Alright, alright. Since we saw her, let's say h.e.l.lo and ask Wei Wei if she wants to eat with us,” Li Meng's words were filled with ingenuine hospitality, which made others think that she was kind. In reality, the moment she click-clacked through the door with her ostentatious high heels, a hint of evil malice flashed across her irises.
Helian Wei Wei was feeding Qingchen a burger, sharing one burger between the two of them, and taking a bite, one after another. They were smiling while eating, which was how the mother and son usually got along.
They just needed to grab a bite, before having the main meal after Baili Jia Jue had finished working and brought Baili Shangxie there.
Simply put, they were just waiting to be fed.
Of course, outsiders would not know about this.
So, Li Meng a.s.sumed that Helian Wei Wei was too poor and could not afford a proper meal, having to share a burger with her son. The unstoppable urge to mock and ridicule flooded her heart as she teasingly said, “Wei Wei, why would you bring your son to eat food like these? It's not nutritious.”
Helian Wei Wei was still chewing the fries in her mouth, as she nonchalantly glanced at the busybodies that appeared in front of her, without saying anything.
Li Meng beckoned the three female cla.s.smates behind her to sit down and said again with a cloying grin, “These are the people from our cla.s.s, do you remember them?”
Helian Wei Wei merely responded with a faint grunt. Actually, she could not recognize any of their faces. However, she could not act too impolite and had to respond.
The three female cla.s.smates glanced at her and looked at the contents of her plate with an indescribable smirk, snarking, “Wei Wei, why did you only order one burger? You can't be full, right? We're planning to go for dinner after this, would you like to join us? The food is not expensive, everyone can eat a good meal for around three or four hundred. Why do you even eat here?”
