Chapter 30

On Monday, Muyan arrived at the company very early in the morning. Entering the paper-walled fortress that smelled of mold, he found that Zhong Jiaqiang had not come. He wondered if Zhong Jiaqiang had already discovered that he had taken his things. If that were the case, Zhong Jiaqiang was indeed quite capable.

A faint, barely noticeable smile appeared at the corner of Muyan's mouth, and he started chatting with Old Fan and Old Su.

Seeing that Zhong Jiaqiang had not arrived even half an hour after the start of work, Old Fan, with his loud voice, shouted, "It seems the manager isn't coming today. Xiaoling, go and deliver the things."

"I'm ready!" Tong Ling pushed a handcart and headed towards the elevator.

Since Muyan had been there for a few days, although he occasionally helped with some tasks, he mostly liked to chat with Old Su and Old Fan. Why was he being so kind today?

Although Tong Ling found it strange, she still agreed.

Old Fan and Old Su exchanged glances, and Cheng Dajie giggled, "Xiao Mu! Why are you being so diligent today? Are you worried about Xiaoling being too busy alone?"

"Cheng Dajie, what are you saying?" Hearing this, Tong Ling immediately protested. But thinking about Muyan, she wondered why he suddenly thought of helping. Could he really be pursuing her?

Speaking of Muyan, although he was a few years older than her, he wasn't that much older. He looked good, but he lacked ambition. However, in this department, having ambition was useless.

While she was lost in thought, Muyan also joked, "Cheng Dajie, stop teasing me. I'm nothing, but Xiaoling is a young lady. Gossip can be very harmful, so don't cause trouble!"

Muyan had become familiar with them and knew they had no ill intentions, so he joined in the banter.

"Hehe, you immediately defended her after just one sentence from me. Your intentions are as clear as daylight!" Cheng Juanjuan continued to laugh.

"Alright, Cheng Dajie, look at Xiaoling's red face. I've been here for a few days and haven't gone upstairs yet. I just want to take a look, nothing else!" Muyan found an excuse.

After saying that, Muyan pushed the cart towards the elevator. If he continued talking, he would probably be too embarrassed to leave.

In the elevator, seeing Tong Ling's slightly flushed face, Muyan smiled and said, "I really just want to take a look, nothing else!"

Hearing Muyan say this again, Tong Ling felt a bit disappointed. Even if Muyan really wanted to pursue her, she probably wouldn't agree. But his indifference made her uncomfortable.

"Am I not pretty enough?" Tong Ling thought to herself.

However, this discomfort quickly passed. After all, she had known Muyan for a few days, and she didn't want to start a relationship.

"Muyan, if you have the chance, don't stay in the Resource Allocation Department. It's a place where people just wait to die. You're young and should try to make a name for yourself," Tong Ling suddenly said.

Hearing this, Muyan looked at Tong Ling strangely and smiled, "Xiaoling, if you think that, why don't you leave? I don't think you lack ambition."

Tong Ling smiled faintly, "I originally came to Donghai to work. My education isn't high, but being able to join Fenghua is already quite good. To be honest, I'm attending night school. After I finish, I'll consider leaving."

Hearing this, Muyan nodded. Clearly, Tong Ling was like many people from other places who came to Donghai, the big city, to seek their fortune, full of hope and drive. He had indeed noticed that Tong Ling would read some finance books when she had free time.

The handcart was piled high with various office supplies. Following the list, the two of them distributed the supplies floor by floor.

Two hours later, they reached the 46th floor, where the company's Sales Department and Planning Department were located. In fact, the higher the floor in the Fenghua Building, the more important the department.

Looking at the list, Tong Ling handed a few office supplies to Muyan, "You take these to the manager's office, and I'll handle the rest!"

Just as Muyan was about to agree, he saw a man around his age come out of the manager's office. Seeing Tong Ling, he deliberately smiled playfully, "Xiaoling, are you here to distribute supplies again? Are you satisfied with your current job? If you want to change your environment, let me know, and I'll help you. After all, you are my subordinate!"

Tong Ling's eyes flashed with disgust, "Thank you, Manager Su, I am very satisfied with my current job!"

"Then work hard!" The man coldly snorted and walked past without looking at Tong Ling again.

Muyan watched the man leave and then asked Tong Ling, whose face had turned slightly pale, "Were you in the Sales Department before?"

Tong Ling nodded but didn't say anything.

Actually, Muyan already knew without her saying. From the look of that guy, he was not a good person. He probably had his eye on Tong Ling and, when she didn't agree, demoted her to the Resource Allocation Department!

On the 47th floor, the Human Resources and Finance departments, the two most important departments of the company, were located. The three floors above were where the company's executives were.

In the Human Resources Department, Muyan immediately saw Fang Meina, who was busy working.

Fang Meina also saw Muyan and greeted him with a smile, "Muyan, are you here to deliver office supplies?"

Muyan handed her a box of paper clips she had ordered and asked in a low voice, "Is Manager Zhang here?"

"President called a meeting, he went upstairs ten minutes ago!" Fang Meina said.

Thinking about it, Muyan realized that the man surnamed Su had also hurried out of his office at that time.

Since Zhang Shuo was not there, Muyan didn't want to take out the supplies, so after distributing the items, he and Tong Ling went upstairs together.

The top three floors were the offices of the vice presidents, directors, and the president. They didn't need to deliver the items one by one; they could just give them to the secretaries.

When they reached the top floor, Muyan noticed that each secretary had their own private office. The Fenghua Group was indeed luxurious.

They placed the items directly in the secretary's office and were about to leave with the handcart when the meeting room door suddenly opened, and Muyan saw a familiar figure walk out!

"So she is the president of Fenghua!" Although Muyan didn't know what the president of Fenghua looked like, from the information he had, he recognized her as Yu Jing, the president of Fenghua, at first glance.

Yu Jing immediately noticed the man pushing the handcart. She never thought that the man she desperately did not want to see would appear here at this time, and his slightly playful smile clearly showed that he had recognized her!
