Chapter 257: I Won’t Allow Him To Marry A Woman Of A Lowly Status!
This was the first time she saw Fang Ziqian in a business suit.
The suit didn’t even have a waist and its color was gray.
A pair of black-rimmed gla.s.ses covered most of her face and her hair was neatly tied up.
She looked at least 20 years older.
“Xi Xi, why are you here?” Fang Ziqian showed a surprised smile. “You’re so beautiful today!”
!!
Luo Chenxi said, “Thank you, but you’re not very beautiful today.”
Fang Ziqian was Bai Shixun’s secretary, so it was not strange for her to appear at Elder Bai’s birthday party.
However, she actually dressed like this, which made people’s jaws drop.
Fang Ziqian said helplessly, “There’s a reason why I’m dressed like this. You’ve never been in the workplace before, so you don’t understand!”
Seeing that Luo Chenxi still wanted to ask, she quickly changed the topic. “Oh right, Xi Xi, the other day you said that you were going to shoot the cover of TREND magazine. Did it go well?”
As expected, Luo Chenxi diverted her attention.
“It would have been great if you had come back a few days earlier! Without you here, I don’t have such a tacit understanding with the others.”
Thinking of the scene where Duan Yuning made mistakes frequently that day, Luo Chenxi couldn’t help but sigh.
Fortunately, the shoot was successfully completed in the end.
“By the way, Xi Xi, after the Huafeng Compet.i.tion, many people have taken a fancy to you. Do you want to consider quitting your job and becoming a model officially? In the past, wasn’t your dream to become a supermodel? Now is a good opportunity.”
Fang Ziqian was stunned. Apparently, she was tempted.
After hesitating for a moment, she shook her head. “Forget it.”
“Why?” Luo Chenxi was puzzled. “Didn’t you say that you couldn’t stand Bai Shixun and wanted to fire the boss every day?”
“About that…”
Fang Ziqian was at a loss for words.
At that moment, a waiter came close and bowed to Fang Ziqian.
“Secretary Fang, Old Master Bai is looking for you.”
“Okay, I’ll be heading over now.”
Fang Ziqian quickly got up. “Xi Xi, I’ll have to make a move first.”
“You go ahead and do your thing, don’t worry about me.”
…
Fang Ziqian walked towards the main table.
Her smile gradually disappeared.
A few seconds later, she turned back into the old-fashioned and dull Secretary Fang.
When Elder Bai saw her, a look of approval appeared on his face.
“Ziqian, I heard that Shixun has been in the company every day during this period of time. He even often works overtime and rarely goes to red light districts. This time, the two of you even managed to negotiate a big project in Country M. You’ve played a big part in this!”
Fang Ziqian lowered her head slightly. “Elder, you’re flattering me. This is what I’m supposed to do.”
Elder Bai smiled. “You don’t have to be modest. I know that with your talent, it’s a waste for you to be that b*stard’s secretary. But, I have no choice.”
“In the past, I’ve changed Shixun’s secretaries several times. All of them wanted to climb into his bed and become the Young Madam of the Bai Family. Only you can be trusted. So, I’ve got no choice but to ask for you to suffer for a few more years.”
Fang Ziqian quickly said, “I don’t find it suffering. Elder, you’ve treated me with great kindness. To be able to work in Bai Group, I’m already very happy, despite the position I have.”
Four years ago, she had encountered some issues and it was Elder Bai who had saved her.
This was the main reason why she was unwilling to leave Bai Group to become a model.
At that time, Luo Chenxi was abroad, so even she did not know.
Elder Bai smiled and nodded, “With you by Shixun’s side, I can be at ease. “Oh right, also keep an eye out for those promiscuous women by Shixun’s side. I absolutely can’t allow Shixun to follow in his father’s footsteps and marry a woman of a lowly status! Once you discover anything, let me know immediately, okay?”
Fang Ziqian said, “Don’t worry, Elder. Second Young Master has been at the office every day recently and hasn’t gone out to play.”
‘Speaking of which, I find that very puzzling as well.
‘Ever since I’ve returned from my annual leave, Bai Shixun has stayed at the office very late every day.
‘Whenever I worked overtime, he would play games in the office.
‘He neither went home nor went to the bar.
‘It’s as if he’s. .h.i.t his head and gone mad.’
Elder Bai was filled with relief. “That’s good, that’s good!”
He suddenly thought of something and frowned. “However, I heard from others a few days ago that Shixun once brought a woman into the company? He even carried her upstairs personally? Do you know what happened?”
Fang Ziqian’s heart skipped a beat.
‘Carried… Carried upstairs?
‘Could he be referring to the time I was caught by Bai Shixun during the Huafeng Compet.i.tion?’
