Abducted by the White Moonlight of a "Tormented Protagonist" Novel - Chapter 21
Chapter 21
I followed Shen Shiyi to the Shen Group. The Shen Group’s main business was the beverage industry, and it was the group that currently occupied the largest share of the domestic beverage market. In this regard, the Shen Group could be said to be in an absolute leading position.
When we arrived at the company, I found out that Shen Shiyi had also started working at the Shen Group…
I looked at Shen Shiyi in disbelief. In the novel, didn’t this perfect woman start her own brand after returning to the country? I remember she only joined the Shen Group in the middle and later stages of the novel, after her own business had taken off!
“Why are you so nervous, my little assistant?” Shen Shiyi said, pinching my pale face with a smirk.
I didn’t mind her hand. I only had one question at the moment. “I’m your assistant?!”
She never mentioned that before!
“Mmhmm.” Shen Shiyi replied in a good mood. She followed the HR person inside, saying as she walked, “Since I’m going to work here, I naturally need a handy assistant. I think you’re pretty good.”
It’s also the best way to keep an eye on her.
“I don’t want to be your assistant!” I protested. Who knows what it would be like to be her assistant! This person is so weird!
Seeing my resistance, Shen Shiyi raised an eyebrow but didn’t say anything for now.
We followed the HR person into the Yile marketing department. After a round of self-introductions, everyone immediately understood that the group’s future heiress was entering the company to prepare to take over the group in the future!
As an “airborne” employee, Shen Shiyi was directly appointed as the head of the marketing department. At the moment, she didn’t have any confidants in the group yet. As the future head of the group, there would naturally be many people who wanted to curry favor with her and become her so-called “close officials.”
So, the first step, becoming her assistant, was the best way to get close to her!
However, I didn’t know this. I just wanted to be a stable little clerk in the marketing department, earning enough to not starve, and I didn’t want to get too close to Shen Shiyi.
Before I had any contact with Shen Shiyi, I thought we could be a pair of loving sisters. But after getting to know her, I just wanted to maintain a normal social distance. That would be a great thing.
“Manager Shen, this will be your office from now on,” the HR person said with a kind smile. Everyone knew that Shen Shiyi was the future successor of the Shen Group, so the office prepared for her would naturally be top-notch.
The space was spacious and bright. It was not only equipped with an independent pantry and bathroom but also had a lounge with a king-sized bed. This setup was even better than a director’s.
“Okay, thank you for your trouble. The Song assistant and I have something to talk about. You can go out first. I’ll take her to do the new hire procedures later,” Shen Shiyi said with a faint smile.
“Okay, then I’ll leave you to it.” The HR person glanced at Song Zhiqi before leaving and quickly looked away. Working in HR at a big corporation like the Shen Group, she was naturally well-informed. She also knew about this woman who had been blacklisted by Fu Wen.
Because she knew, she was surprised that their future heiress would get involved with her. Wasn’t that a clear sign of disrespect to Fu Wen?
After the HR person left, Shen Shiyi sat in the office chair and said leisurely, “Isn’t it good to be my assistant? You don’t have to deal with office politics.”
I pouted. “Don’t you know if it’s good or not yourself?”
This person is a dangerous character to me now!
“But I think it’s pretty good.” Shen Shiyi pushed her chair around with her toes to face the door to the lounge. She chuckled. “Outside, you can only nap at your desk during lunch break. But as my assistant, it’s different.”
“What’s different?” I pouted, unimpressed.
Shen Shiyi tilted her head, her smile even more alluring. “Here, you have a bed to sleep on.”
A bed to sleep on during lunch break!
I hesitated immediately. I had experienced napping at my desk, and when I woke up, my back was so sore! If I kept doing that, it would definitely be bad for my spine.
But I wasn’t that easy to fool. I looked at Shen Shiyi warily. “If I sleep on the bed, where do you sleep?”
After all, there was only one lounge!
Seeing that my attitude had softened, Shen Shiyi’s hand on the armrest lightly tapped. She said unhurriedly, “Do you think I’ll have time for a lunch break with all the things I’ll have to deal with in the future?”
“Besides, even if I were to nap, the bed is so big. What’s wrong with sharing half of it with me?”
After hearing her words, I still looked like I didn’t believe her. How could she not have time for a lunch break! She’s just a manager now. In the novel, Fu Wen was already the CEO, and when the female lead was his secretary, didn’t he still have plenty of time to press her against the office desk and flirt?
And “share half the bed with me.” If she dares to share half, I’ll dare to take the whole bed and the person on it!
Seeing my wary look, Shen Shiyi sighed softly. “Why don’t you believe me? Think about my identity. How many things do I need to understand to successfully take over the group? How could I have time to fight you for the bed?”
Oh, right.
When she put it that way, I understood. Fu Wen was already at the point where he had successfully taken over the group, but Shen Shiyi hadn’t yet. She still had a lot of work to understand. She probably wouldn’t have time for a while.
Thinking about it this way, I felt a lot more at ease.
“But even though I’m your assistant, I’m telling you in advance, I don’t know a lot of things!” I said, my chin slightly raised. I didn’t know why I could say something so confidently about not being good at my job.
Shen Shiyi sighed softly. “I never expected you to do anything.”
“Oh, you said that,” I said, not thinking that her looking down on me was a serious thing at all. Instead, I thought she was a Bodhisattva from heaven!
She gives me money and I don’t have to work. What else could she be but a Bodhisattva?
Looking at my relieved expression, Shen Shiyi sighed again. It’s a miracle I’m still alive.
However, these two days of leisure had made me forget something. It wasn’t until the system reminded me that I remembered the original me’s mother was still in the hospital…
I was melancholy. What should I do? I really don’t want to save her!
Saving a life is a good deed.
The premise is that the life is worth saving!
After transferring the only 10,000 yuan I had in my account to the hospital, my heart was bleeding. Before, I wouldn’t have cared about 10,000 yuan, but now I’m an emotional mentor just for that amount.
The money hadn’t even had time to warm up!
System: “Host, you don’t have to feel so bad. When you become Mrs. Fu in the future, will you still care about this? You’ll have as many ten thousands as you want.”
Song Zhiqi: “…You’re right. He’s simply the lighthouse of my life, a floating boat in the ocean. He’s so good!”
System: “It’s good that the Host knows.”
However, I didn’t get to see my lighthouse or floating boat. Instead, I first saw the devoted male second lead from the novel.
Gu Tingsheng.
I never would have thought that the devoted male second lead would no longer be devoted. He’s here to collect a debt.
Song Zhiqi: Smiles.
I don’t want to face it.
