Chapter 2.1 - It is really hard to be a human

“Technology changes life, it creates the future and Weilan Technology is one of the top 50 companies in the world…”

The electronic screen in the elevator repeatedly advertised the company’s development process over and over again.

The elevator ascended slowly, and the circulation vent blew out gusts of cool wind, dispelling the sweltering heat of summer.

Zhuang Yanyu had been in Weilan Technology for two full months, and today he finally met the good brother assigned to him by the mastermind.

The words of the Mastermind was –

A person will be assigned to him, but whether he can succeed or not depends on his own efforts.

This was because friendship also needs to be developed. If it was made in the past, it was not friendship with him, but friendship with another person.

It was no wonder the elevator was so empty, it was because everyone didn’t dare to come in when they saw Wen Chenxi inside.

Wanting to marry into a wealthy family was just lip service.

“Which floor are you going to?” Wen Chenxi suddenly said, his eyes moved over and met Zhuang Yanyu’s.

Zhuang Yanyu was still thinking, now that he finally met his assigned ‘good brother’, should he introduce himself directly?

Wen Chenxi saw that the other party seemed to be frightened when he saw him and remained motionless.

The boy looked good, his delicate eyebrows were like the perfect drawing of the creator, more like a painting with no flaws. In particular, his stunned appearance reminded Wen Chenxi of a friend’s cat. Whenever it saw a stranger, it would subconsciously freeze, and then observe quietly. Its clever eyes seemed to have a thousand words it wanted to say, but didn’t speak because of some unspeakable secret.

Wen Chenxi had no relationship with animals and that cat would be frightened every time it saw him, so it was like…

Wen Chenxi glanced at the little employee in front of him again, his lips slightly raised.

He was not a warm-hearted person, but somehow he doesn’t want the other party to be criticized by the department head for being late.

Wen Chenxi glanced down at his watch, and rarely took the initiative to say, “You’re going to be late.”

Zhuang Yanyu regained his senses this time, and said, “What?”

The next moment, the elevator dinged and arrived directly to the top floor.

The top floor was the president’s office, and he actually followed him here.

Zhuang Yanyu: “…”

Weilan Technology Building had 33 floors.

The company had a long history. When there were still not many high-rise buildings in City A, Weilan Technology already owned this building. Compared with the newer hundreds-of-storey office buildings, this building was considered old. Otherwise, there would not be so few elevators.

However, there were rumours that the company built a new higher-tech building with a lot of money and now the whole company was waiting to move to the company’s new building.

Outside the elevator.

Special Assistant Lin, the president’s special assistant, happened to pass by the elevator. So when he saw the elevator stopped on this floor, he stopped and waited.

At this time, only Wen Chenxi could go to the top floor.

Special Assistant Lin was holding several documents, which were about to be sent to the president’s office for Wen Chenxi.

The elevator door opened and Special Assistant Lin said habitually, “Boss Wen, the research and development department of the new project’s planning proposal has already…”

Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.

Special Assistant Lin looked at the two people standing in the elevator. One was his immediate boss, Wen Chenxi, but who was the other?

Seeing that the elevator had reached the top floor, Wen Chen took another look at the young employee.

The other party seemed to be depressed, staring at the elevator buttons expressionlessly, with a bit of annoyance in his eyes.

Wen Chenxi slightly hooked the corner of his lower lip.

Special Assistant Lin: “This is…?”

Zhuang Yanyu: “Sorry, I went to the wrong floor.”

Zhuang Yanyu quickly pressed the 16th floor.

Special Assistant Lin: “?” You can get to the top floor by making a mistake?

But the elevator door closed, blocking Special Assistant Lin’s view.

Wen Chenxi took the documents from Special Assistant Lin, and seeing that Special Assistant Lin was still staring at the elevator, he asked, “What are you still looking at?”

Special Assistant Lin quickly retracted his gaze, followed Wen Chenxi, and said, “No, I’m just a little surprised.”

Surprised that someone dared to take the same elevator as the big boss.

Wen Chenxi thought of the little employee just now, glanced back, and saw the elevator descend all the way down to ’16’, and then stop.

In other words, the little employee just now was from the 16th floor.

Wen Chenxi pushed his glasses, and asked nonchalantly: “The 16th floor is the service centre?”

Special Assistant Lin said: “Yes.”

Special Assistant Lin thought that Wen Chenxi suspected that the employee just now had some small thoughts, and asked: “Do you want to check on that employee from just now?”

Wen Chenxi said softly, “Okay, check what he does.”

Special Assistant Lin, ashamed, said: “Yes.”

After entering the office, Special Assistant Lin sorted out the more important documents, put them aside, then turned and walked out.

As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Wen Chenxi’s voice from behind: “If you want to check, you can.”

Special Assistant Lin: “…”

–

At this time, Zhuang Yanyu had already returned to the 16th floor, feeling a little depressed.

It turned out that it was not easy to get to know brothers.

“Huh? Xiao Zhuang, you are actually so late today? ”

“It is really Xiao Zhuang! I was just feeling that there was something wrong with our technical ervice department. It turned out that Xiao Zhuang was not there yet. ”

“Is there something wrong today, Xiao Zhuang? This is the first time I see you coming to the company so late.”

When passing by other colleagues’ positions, everyone was very surprised to see Zhuang Yanyu.

Helen XD: They met! Though it was a little awkward…but first meetings are usually like that. Chapter 2 is longer than chapter 1, around 3,000+ words, so I will be releasing the rest of chapter 2 next week.

Spoiler: The rest of the chapter is more about work though, but looks pretty interesting.

P.s. Merry Christmas 😀
