Xia Weilan returned to the conference room with a new cup of coffee in her hand. She slowly walked toward Mo Beichen.
Mo Beichen landed his gaze on her, and he quickly shifted his gaze as if he was really here to attend the meeting instead of seeking the opportunity to see Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan walked beside him and leaned over to put down the coffee in front of him. She put on her usual expression. But the moment she leaned forward, she could clearly sense Mo Beichen gazing at her deeply. She wanted to lift her eyes to meet his gaze, but due to her current job status, she fought her urge and lowered her eyes and avoided any eye contact with him.
At first, the Project Manager had something that he wanted to say. But the moment he saw Xia Weilan walking in, he stopped and briefly fixed his stare on Xia Weilan and Mo Beichen
Dong Yingying already sensed that something was wrong from the beginning. At this time, everyone was looking at Xia Weilan and she suddenly realized what the problem was. It turned out that the problem was from this assistant.
Dong Yingying thought to herself that this assistant is really good-looking. She could tell from a glance that she’s a witch, a witch who intends to seduce Mo Beichen. Dong Yingying was displeased, “My coffee is too sweet, make me another cup.”
Dong Yingying pointed her chin to the coffee in front of her and signaled Xia Weilan to prepare another cup quickly.
Xia Weilan who just put down the coffee frowned when she heard her request. She obviously added a little sugar only. She swept a glance at Dong Yingying and saw the displeasure and provocation in her eyes. She knew that she must have offended Dong Yingying one way or another.
Xia Weilan left the conference room again.
“President Mo, my cousin often talked about you. She complimented that you are brimming with talent. Mo Corps is able to become the leading company in Beijing because of a president like you. I’ve always admired you…”
When Xia Weilan returned to the conference room, Dong Yinying was in the middle of her speech.
Dong Yingying noticed that Mo Beichen suddenly shifted his attention towards the door. She immediately stopped talking and turned her head. As expected, the assistant who looked like a witch had returned.
Dong Yingying was convinced that this assistant is a disaster.
Xia Weilan was about to step forward when she heard Dong Yingying raise her voice, “Hold it. I suddenly feel like having tea, can you change it for me?”
Xia Weilan’s expression darkened a bit.
“Why are you standing there? Are you trying to be ignorant? Go do it when I ask you to. Don’t forget that I’m your client. Do you want me to do it myself?”
Dong Yingying is obviously making things difficult. It was obvious to others who were present in the conference room.
Mo Beichen narrowed his eyes and it was obvious that he was already feeling upset.
The people who had come with Dong Yingying noticed that. They immediately broke into cold sweats.
Does this young lady have any idea how important this project is to the Dong family? They are coming here to beg others and this is not the right time to go into a huff.
However, they didn’t dare to control Dong Yingying. They all looked apologetically at Xia Weilan.
“What else do you want? Just tell me all at once.” Xia Weilan said coldly to Dong Yingying.
Dong Yingying didn’t expect that a mere assistant would dare to talk to her like this. She immediately pointed a finger at Xia Weilan, “I just find you annoying. Get out now and don’t come back!”
‘Bang!’ Mo Beichen suddenly got up from his seat.
" "
“Ah!” Dong Yingying’s arm was scalded by the coffee that spilled from the cup in front of Mo Beichen. It was the coffee that Xia Weilan made for him just now and it was steaming hot
Dong Yingying let out a scream. When she noticed that Mo Beichen had spilled it by accident, she immediately stopped and said awkwardly, “It’s okay, it’s okay, I’ll just wipe it off.”
Mo Beichen stood still with a cold expression. He said in a low voice, “I’m sorry.”
When Xu Wei heard his words, he knew that the president was really two-faced. How could he apologize with such an expression after doing such a thing?
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Mo-ge, where are you going?” Dong Yingying asked in surprise while wiping the slightly red patch on her arm.
“I suddenly recalled that I have to attend an important meeting.” Mo Beichen said with a cold expression.
Xia Weilan handed the tissue to Dong Yingying, and she stood beside the manager. No one talked about making tea anymore.
“What meeting?” Dong Yingying immediately looked distraught. She didn’t want Mo Beichen to leave so soon.
“What meeting is that? Just set it aside first. The business with the Dong family is very important too!” Dong Yingying said immediately.
The people who came with Dong Yingying held their heads low. Their cheeks were burning from embarrassment. How dare Dong Yingying make such a claim? Just look at the scale of Mo Corps compared to the scale of the Dong’s family business. How dare Miss Dong claimed that the Dong’s family project is important?
Mo Beichen hesitated.
Dong Yingying was delighted when she noticed his hesitation. She continued to persuade him, “It’s just another meeting. You can always postpone it. After all, we’re considered relatives. My cousin is your sister-in-law, doesn’t that make me your sister?”
Xia Weilan was surprised. She took a closer look at Dong Yingying and finally realized why she felt so uncomfortable looking at Dong Yingying. So, it turned out that she is a relative of Liu Yinyin. It’s no wonder that they are of the same kind.
Xia Weilan was even more surprised that Mo Beichen actually sat down once again and instructed Xu Wei to postpone the meeting.
Xu Wei looked at Mo Beichen in surprise for he knew that Mo Beichen is never late for meetings. What happened to him today? Is it because he is reluctant to part with Xia Weilan?
Xu Wei couldn’t figure out the answer and left the conference room.
Dong Yingying smiled like a delicate flower in the wind. Her eyebrows arched with her sweet smile, and even the red patch on her arm didn’t hurt anymore.
“Let’s continue!” Mo Beichen said emotionlessly, without looking at Dong Yingying’s love drunk face.
Dong Yingying was acting like a proud peacock showing off its tail. She kept talking but none of it was relevant to the project. They’re about her personal affairs, “Mo-ge, can we go for lunch together? I know a good place…”
Before Dong Yingying finished her words, she noticed Xia Weilan suddenly walked over with a cup of tea, blocking her sight of Mo Beichen.
Dong Yingying frowned. But Xia Weilan stood in between her and Mo Beichen after she put down the tea, like a fort wall.
Mo Beichen raised an eyebrow and stared at Xia Weilan’s side profile. He noticed that she was staring at Dong Yingying without flinching, “Here’s the tea that you requested for.”
Dong Yingying glared at Xia Weilan fiercely. Before she could make a fuss about it, Mo Beichen spoke first, “Manager Liu, please go through the details of the contract.”
Upon hearing this, the Project Manager immediately says, “We’ve made some changes to the proposal, and the content that has been adjusted is…”
Dong Yingying’s expression became more hideous when she listened to the details. She glared at the Project Manager, “What are you talking about? You must be mistaken! How dare you come up with such a proposal? Do you think I am bulliable? I’m a relative of the Mo family, you…”
