292: Wang Wen's hostility

Wang Wen's hostility

When Wang Wen pushed open the door and saw this scene, a dark light flashed in her eyes. Her gaze quickly swept past Qin Yan and landed on Xi Ting. "CEO Xi," she greeted.2

When Wang Wen saw what Xi Ting was doing, she was so shocked that her mouth fell open. Xi Ting, who had always been professional and would not be affected by anything, had a gentle expression on his face while doing something that did not match his status.

The sleeves of Xi Ting's exquisite and expensive suit were casually rolled up to his elbow. He bent down and carefully cut the fruit on the table in the lounge while Qin Yan sat on the sofa with a book in her arms, she didn't have the slightest intention of helping him.

"CEO Xi, how can you do this type of thing?" Wang Wen couldn't help but step forward and try to grab the fruit knife, "Let me help you."

Xi Ting's hands had signed countless of contracts worth hundreds of millions, stirring up capital city's financial market. He was a mastermind and had the market under his control. His handsome and perfect face had appeared in various major financial magazines several times. Even international celebrities had been amazed by his looks and abilities.

A person like Xi Ting should be high and mighty, sitting on a golden chair and casually taking control of the situation. He should not be on this narrow table, doing something like cutting fruits, which didn't require much skill!

This was simply an insult to Xi Ting and a waste of his ability!

Wang Wen looked at Xi Ting with faint admiration in her eyes. She took the initiative to step forward and volunteered, "CEO Xi, I can handle such a small matter. Don't worry, I will definitely cut the fruit properly."

Wang Wen's excessive enthusiasm finally attracted Qin Yan's attention. She was originally focused on some other work, but this woman…

"I can do it myself," Xi Ting avoided her hand without hesitation and said in a deep voice, "Step back."

As she was explicitly rejected, Wang Wen could only bite her lips and step back.

Xi Ting set up a fruit plate and brewed tea. He personally brought it to Qin Yan's hand. "Cookie, eat and drink this first." His expression was gentle as he patiently instructed, "After I finish my work, I'll bring you down to eat."

Qin Yan nodded. At this moment, she clearly felt a sharp gaze on her hand, as if she had done something extremely evil.

Qin Yan met the gaze and looked over. Wang Wen did not avoid it and looked at Qin Yan with hostility in her eyes. Qin Yan paused for a moment as interest flashed in her eyes. She deliberately held Xi Ting's hand and said in a reluctant manner, "Then don't be busy for too long."

Qin Yan was not old, to begin with and she looked youthful. She raised her beautiful face, and her eyes glistened. Her voice was warm, clear, and sweet, exuding an unquenchable sweetness. She acted coquettishly like a child.

Xi Ting's adam's apple bobbed. He raised his hand to loosen his tie and replied softly, "Okay."

Wang Wen was a typical strong woman. When it came to work, she became sharp and steady. It was precisely because of this that Xi Ting promoted her to the position of the secretary-general and worked together with her for many years. The two of them worked together long enough to have a tacit understanding.

After she finished dealing with work matters, Wang Wen did not stay long. "CEO Xi, if there's nothing else, I'll go back to work." Other than revealing some emotions when she first entered the room, Wang Wen looked the same as usual.

Xi Ting raised his hand and said, "Wait a moment, I forgot to introduce you. This is my girlfriend.."

"CEO Xi," Wang Wen interrupted Xi Ting without hesitation. She said expressionlessly, "I entered the Xi Corporation to show my worth. I'm here to work, not here to get to know others." After she finished speaking, she glanced at the files in Qin Yan's hands. Her eyes revealed a hint of contempt. She continued, "I think my work here is done. May I leave now?"

Xi Ting's gaze suddenly turned cold. Qin Yan was his woman. He did not like others to look down on her or even ignore her. However, Wang Wen did not back down. She stood straight and looked at Xi Ting, expressing her attitude.

"Xi Ting, this secretary-general of yours has quite a personality," Qin Yan could not help but chuckle. Everyone had their own personality. Qin Yan was not unreasonable enough to ask everyone to like her.

Wang Wen was much better than those socialites who only knew how to rely on men to survive. She could still argue with her boss whom she adored.

Thinking of this, Qin Yan waved her hand. She said, "I'm here to read my files. I don't want to affect your work. Secretary-general Wang is right. She's here to work in the company, not to greet me. She doesn't need to know me."

Wang Wen looked at Qin Yan in surprise, as if she hadn't expected Qin Yan to say such a thing. However, she didn't say anything. After receiving Xi Ting's nod, she left.

Qin Yan didn't take this small interlude to heart. However, when she came out of the bathroom and saw the serious figure waiting not far away, she raised her eyebrows.

"Miss Qin," Wang Wen looked at her expressionlessly. "Would you mind having a chat?"

Qin Yan smiled, "I thought you didn't like to waste your working time. After all, you are a very principled person, Secretary-general Wang."

Wang Wen raised her watch to take a look and said, "The lunchtime for the Xi Corporation is 11:30. It's now 11:25. I'll make up for the five minutes I've wasted by going to work five minutes earlier in the afternoon."

This woman was really rigid.

Qin Yan shrugged and took the initiative to take her to a quiet corner. She asked, "Tell me, what does Secretary-general Wang want to talk to me about?"

"Miss Qin, you're CEO Xi's girlfriend. I have to say something," Wang Wen adjusted the glasses on her nose. Then, she said with some dissatisfaction, "A person like CEO Xi has to do great things. Do you know what kind of legend he has created in the business world? Do you know how great CEO Xi is?"

"So what if I know? So what if I don't know?" Qin Yan blinked and asked in confusion, "No matter what his status is, he's still my boyfriend, isn't he?"

Seeing Qin Yan's stubborn look, Wang Wen's eyes flashed with anger. Wang Wen replied, "You have to understand that CEO Xi can create a huge amount of wealth every minute and every second. Every decision he makes has a huge impact on the business world. A person like him is destined to sit in a high position and stir up trouble. He's not going to do such a small thing as cutting fruit plates to satisfy your appetite. It's a waste of his talent."

Wang Wen was still brooding over the scene she saw in the morning.

"I want to ask you something. Don't you have any social life after work?" Qin Yan suddenly asked, "In your life, apart from work and study, is there nothing else? Friends? Family? Or lovers?"

Wang Wen paused, her expression slightly stiff. She replied, "This has nothing to do with you."

"These things indeed have nothing to do with me, but I want you to understand that Xi Ting is the same as you and me, the same as most people in this world. He's human," Qin Yan's expression turned cold, she looked at Wang Wen.

Then, she continued, "I don't know why you have such strange thoughts about Xi Ting, but I want to remind you that Xi Ting is not a machine. He has time to relax, he has his loved ones, family, and friends. He can't be like what you imagine, a machine that works continuously."

Qin Yan paused and raised her chin. She stared at Wang Wen coldly and said, "I've never asked him to do anything. It's all up to him to do whatever he wants. As long as it's something he wants to do, it's never a waste of his time or abilities. He has his thoughts. He's not someone's puppet, and he's not the almighty deity in your mind either, Secretary-general Wang."

"You're talking nonsense!" Wang Wen's brows were tightly furrowed as if she had received a huge shock. Her expression went blank for a moment. Then, she said, "Wasting time on insignificant things is a waste of CEO Xi's talent!"

"I've said it before. As long as it's something he wants to do, it's not a waste," Qin Yan said in a deep voice. "There's no rule that says talented people should work non-stop, just for the so-called ridiculous reason of not wasting their talents and abilities."
