Yu Yang gently knocked on the door of the manager’s office. After receiving acknowledgment from the other side, she opened the door and led Song Qinghuan in. “Manager, Song Qinghuan is here,” she said politely.
A deep and rich voice was heard. “Okay, you can leave.” Zhao Jingnan put down his work and looked up at them.
“Yes.” Yu Yang nodded her head lightly and turned to leave the office.
However, she didn’t leave immediately. She stood outside and eavesdropped on the conversation inside. She was really curious about Song Qinghuan’s identity.
The moment Song Qinghuan entered the office, she saw the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk. He looked about 40 years old and his hair was combed to the point where it shined. His face revealed his age. He had a faint smile and he seemed amiable but his gaze was sharp and bright. You could tell he was experienced.
Song Qinghuan was flabbergasted. Her eyes were wide open from the shock. A bomb seemed to have exploded in her mind. She couldn’t stand properly.
After Yu Yang walked out, she opened her mouth and asked, “Are you Manager Zhao?”
She knew her question was redundant. Yu Yang had called him Manager Zhao earlier so of course he was Manager Zhao. In that case, who was the haughty and elegant man yesterday?
Could someone tell her if her eyes were having issues today or was she blind yesterday?
Zhao Jingnan continued smiling. However, he spoke straightforwardly. “Miss Song, didn’t you see the sign outside the door before you entered the office? The department, position, and name of the person sitting inside the office is written clearly on the door of every single employee at Era Group.”
Song Qinghuan lowered her head flustered. She appeared humble and obedient. “I’m sorry, Manager Zhao.”
Oh my god, her soul seemed to have shattered into pieces from the shock.
“Manager Zhao” wasn’t Manager Zhao. Who was “Manager Zhao” then? How was he able to allow her to join Era Group?
These questions weighed down on her heart like a mountain. She couldn’t breathe properly.
Zhao Jingnan smiled but his eyes weren’t smiling. He gave Song Qinghuan a meaningful gaze and said, “Today, many people rely on their family background. But if you don’t have any abilities, you still can’t achieve anything.”
Yesterday, he received a call from the president personally. He was asked to create a position for Song Qinghuan. Zhao Jingnan was scrupulous in separating his public and private interests so he hated people who got in through the back door. Hence, his first impression of Song Qinghuan was extremely bad.
Song Qinghuan’s expression froze when she heard this.
She tugged on the corners of her lips. Her smile was uglier than her crying face. “I understand, Manager.”
Zhao Jingnan’s expression didn’t change. He continued to wear a faint smile and looked sarcastic. He took out a form and placed it in front of him. “Complete this.”
