My Terrible Life in Those Years

When we were at the door, I could vaguely hear that she was talking on the phone with a major client.

His tone and attitude were completely different from his cold demeanor towards himself.

But it shouldn't be like me, who just went to beg three girls for help with the assessment.

As I sat across from her, every word she uttered on the phone was clearly audible to me.

"Mr. Zeng, our contract expires next month. Do you think we should find some time to renew it?"

I watched her as she spoke.

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, neither making her sound inferior to the client nor making the client feel like she was begging them.

While on the phone, she slowly turned her chair slightly.

She turned her profile so that it faced me directly.

I saw her slender fingers gripping the phone, her nails painted with delicate patterns. From this angle, I could see her bow tie slanted to one side, and the magnificent bosom beneath it!

"What? We'll have lunch and chat at the restaurant near your company? Great! At Shili Xiang Restaurant? Tiantan Hall? Okay, 11:30, I'll be there on time!"

She gently hung up the phone.

He turned his chair around to face me, and I quickly raised my gaze a foot higher.

"Manager Shu, Administrative Officer Liu said you're going to personally evaluate me?"

She stood up: "I don't have time right now..."

Obviously, she meant that there was no time right now. If that's the case, then I can go back to Sister Liu's place to get more information and review it in detail, which will give me plenty of time to prepare.

Just as I was about to burst with joy, she rolled her eyes and continued, "I won't test your basic information anymore. I'll try a different method. I'm going to meet a big client today to finalize the agency contract for the second half of GG's release. You'll be with me the whole time, cooperating with me and helping me out. Your performance will be the assessment."

My mind is a bit foggy. Aunt Shu, what are you thinking? You're really making a fuss about this!

But do I have the right to object?

"Can I not go?" Although I can't, I can still express my opinion.

I've only been here for one day, and you've already asked me to meet a big client. Even though it's just to accompany him, what if something goes wrong? How many hours of temporary work would I have to do for free to make up for the loss?

It's not that I lack confidence, it's just that the shadow she cast on me yesterday was quite large!

"What did you say?" she suddenly raised her voice and shouted at me.

I was startled. What's wrong with her?

Has no one ever objected to her arrangements and instructions?

But I immediately realized, "Manager Shu, what I mean is, I'm new here and unfamiliar with everything. What if something goes wrong if I go to meet this big client right away?"

Aunt Shu's expression softened slightly when she saw that I expressed my opinion neither arrogantly nor humbly.

"With me here, what are you afraid of? What are you worried about?"

I opened my mouth, but seeing her 100% confident look, I thought, if she's not afraid, why should I be?

If I mess it up, at worst I'll just find another job, earn the money, and pay her back.

I stood up readily.

"Okay, Manager Shu, what do you need me to prepare?"

"Go to the front desk and ask Zhou Tong to find two documents from a company named LE. Leave the rest of the previous documents blank except for the company name, and print two copies. Take these with you. Wait a moment, then we'll leave together!"

I agreed and immediately turned around.

Just as she reached the door, she seemed to remember something.

"Wait a minute, what's your name again, Jiang something?"

"Jiangning, the 'Jiang' in Jiangnan, the 'Ning' in 'tranquility leads to far-reaching goals'!"

I saw a huge plaque hanging behind her, with the four characters "Ning Jing Zhi Yuan" (meaning "Tranquility leads to far-reaching influence") written on it.

My goodness, I wonder who sent her this calligraphy? They really know her too well! This Aunt Shu, with her explosive temper, really needs to calm down and focus on her life.

She paused for a moment, as if she thought it was a bit of a coincidence.

"Jiangning, right? Can you drive?"

I was extremely surprised. Was she really stupid, or did she not look at my information?

I had just graduated, where would I get a driver's license? In college, you can indeed take the test, and I heard you can get a 30% discount, but back then I was someone who had to work part-time to earn money for food, how could I possibly have extra money to take the test?

I shook my head.

"Never mind, I'll drive it later. You go and get the documents done first."

I rushed out to find Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong and the others were shocked to see me run to the front desk so quickly.

"Hey Jiang, you're done with the assessment so quickly?"

"Oh no, I guess I didn't pass."

"Yeah, how could they let him out after only a few minutes of testing?"

With a serious expression and a slight frown, I said to the three young women, "President Shu asked me to come and call you to go see her."

The three were startled and immediately surrounded them.

"No way? What happened?"

"Yes, what does President Shu want with us?"

"Could it be that she overheard us talking about her?"

"Oh no, this is terrible, what are we going to do?"

Seeing the three of them completely bewildered and looking anxious, I couldn't help but laugh.

"Zhou Tong, President Shu asked you to print out the LE company's contract for me! Leave the company name in the printouts, and leave the rest blank."

The three of them only realized what was happening when I burst out laughing.

Zhou Tong patted his chest, and the movement made my eyes widen.

"Jiang Ning, I didn't realize you were so mean."

"You've played us for a fool. Let's see if we'll help you in the future!"

I quickly apologized and begged for forgiveness.

Those girls almost beat me up; Aunt Shu's power was truly overwhelming.

When Liu Meizi heard me say that I wanted to find the contract with this company, her face showed shock again.

"Jiang Ning, do you still dare to say you have absolutely no connection with President Shu? This company is one of our major clients. President Shu used to always meet with them herself; I never saw her bring anyone to contact this company."

Zhou Tong turned on his computer, quickly found the file, saved it, left the previous clauses blank, and printed it.

"Yeah, Jiang, I always felt that President Shu and you have a close relationship. Such an important client, and she actually brought a newcomer like you?"

The more I said it had nothing to do with Aunt Shu, the less they believed me.

After a while, I stopped talking.

I think the more I say, the less they'll believe me.

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth about my relationship with her..." I teased them a bit while I was waiting to sign the contract.

The three of them quickly turned around and stared intently at me.

"Say it!"

"She's mine..." At that moment, one copy of the contract had just been printed, and one copy was still missing.

The three girls, their eyes gleaming with an intense thirst for gossip, all stared at me!
