My Terrible Life in Those Years

When I asked that question, I was quite serious, and I looked even more intently at her exquisite profile.

Her profile, beneath its calm surface, possesses remarkable lines, somewhat resembling a sculpture.

Such a female professional elite, holding a high position and being as beautiful as a flower, is already rare, and for a newbie like me who has just entered the workplace, this is the first time I've ever seen one.

For a moment, I was stunned.

"Just prepare the contract. No special preparation is needed. We'll be meeting with Mr. Zeng for dinner later. Just talk less and listen and observe more."

She knew this was my first job, my first day on the job, and even if there were any things I needed to pay attention to or requirements for, it was unlikely that I could get the hang of it right away. The right thing to do was to listen more and observe more and talk less.

As she spoke, her slightly purple lips moved up and down; I had never seen that color of lipstick before.

Like the color of peach blossoms in March.

I was a little dumbfounded. After staring for about a minute, she finally realized what was happening.

She said with slight anger, "What are you looking at?"

I blurted out, "Manager Shu, your lipstick looks beautiful!"

Her hand on the steering wheel trembled slightly; she had never expected me to say that.

I doubt any subordinate would ever dare to speak to her like that!

Unbelievable that a temporary worker who just joined the company would dare to judge her like that.

She snapped, "So what if it looks good? It's not for you to see!"

She was so angry that she raised her right hand and slammed it hard on the steering wheel. The car horn blared, startling me and herself.

Why do I always lose my composure in front of this kid?

I was surprised, then shocked. Wasn't that a huge move?

Besides, why should I get angry when I complimented her? Isn't this woman giving her too much credit?

I'm angry, really angry.

She said bluntly and loudly, "What? I see someone good-looking, and I can't even say anything about it? Besides, you're so beautiful, why can't people look at you and talk about you? What kind of person are you?"

Anyway, I'm just a temporary worker. Do I have to put up with her temper all the time? It's just a little over a thousand yuan. I can pay her back in a month or two if I work hard.

Therefore, I think there's no need to keep giving in. Women shouldn't be spoiled too much!

When Shu, the career woman, heard my words, her mouth dropped open. A rush of air suddenly shot from her brain through her entire body and down to her toes.

With a loud screech, the luxury SUV with the four-ring logo nearly came to a stop sideways in the middle of the road.

With a loud bang, the sound of a collision came from behind the car.

Oh no, we've rear-ended each other!

Sure enough, we got out of the car at the same time and went to the back of the car. The front of a taxi behind us crashed into the back of our car.

Good heavens, the luxury car with four rings only had a scratch on its rear, while the taxi's headlights were completely smashed.

My goodness, what kind of vehicle is this? It's so sturdy!

At this moment, the taxi driver stopped the car, turned on his hazard lights, quickly got out of the driver's seat, looked at the smashed front of the car, and was so angry that he was shaking.

He yelled at me, "How do you drive? There was nothing wrong up ahead, why did you suddenly brake? Do you even know how to drive?"

He was cursing and yelling at me.

This black pot is quite big!

He thought I did it? That's so unfair to me!

But this is the first time I've encountered something like this, and I don't know how to handle it. Should I tell him that I'm not driving the car, but my boss is?

Just then, Aunt Shu came over. The sudden situation had caught her off guard, and she felt ashamed, annoyed, and angry!

At that moment, I heard the taxi driver cursing at me, and I immediately got angry.

"Hey driver, you're the one who hit my car, and you still have the nerve to swear at me? And how were you driving?"

The driver looked up and saw Shu, the career woman. Seeing such a sophisticated woman, even though she was angry at him, his anger subsided considerably.

"If you hadn't braked so suddenly, how could I have hit you?" The driver felt incredibly unlucky. He recognized the car; it was worth over a million. If he was fully responsible and had to pay compensation, he would probably lose several months' worth of work, or even a year's worth.

Therefore, his first reaction was to shift the blame and then try to find out where we might have made a mistake, so that even if we had to take responsibility, we could take as little as possible.

"You were chasing our car so closely, and you're blaming us for braking suddenly?" Aunt Shu retorted angrily.

I understood the gist of it, but I don't really understand traffic rules, so I couldn't join the conversation at all.

It was quite satisfying to watch Aunt Shu vent her anger on him!

"If you hadn't braked suddenly, would I have hit you? Hey beautiful lady, why did you brake so suddenly?"

I immediately looked over to Aunt Shu, wanting to see how she would answer.

Should I say that she suddenly stepped on the brakes because I scolded her a few times?

Her face suddenly turned red and white.

"Call the police and let them handle this. I don't have time to argue with you here!"

He then took out his phone to make a call.

The driver was immediately startled, realizing that if he called the police, he probably wouldn't get away with anything.

He immediately softened, grabbing her hand as she tried to make a phone call: "No, no, no, beautiful lady, can't we settle this privately? Calling the police will waste both my time and money!"

Settle it privately? Can this even be settled privately? How would you settle it privately?

Seeing that his attitude had softened, Aunt Shu glanced at the time on her phone and didn't make any more calls.

"Forget it, we're in a hurry, you don't need to pay for it! Let's go, Jiangning!"

She flicked her hand and quickly got back into the car. I followed her in a daze, while the driver stared wide-eyed, completely unable to believe that this beautiful woman, who had just been furious, had let him off so easily!

If we go through the proper legal procedures, I doubt he can afford to pay the compensation!

We continued on our way, and after this little incident, we fell silent again.

There was a strange airflow swirling inside the car!

I didn't know how to continue communicating with her, and she remained calm and silent.

When we arrived at the Shili Xiangguan store, it was already 11:40.

After this little incident, we're ten minutes late for our agreed time.

I saw her park the car and keep looking at her watch, her brows slightly furrowed.

"Manager Shu, please don't take what happened just now to heart. I'm new to the workforce and there's a lot I don't know. I'm also very outspoken, so please don't hold it against me!"

I could tell that she valued this meeting quite a bit, otherwise she wouldn't have let the driver off so easily.

So I took the initiative to speak my mind, because I couldn't let this little thing ruin the business!

She paused again, and it was clear that I still stuck to my point of view: You're so beautiful, can't people even look at you? Can't people even talk about you?
