A Pursuit of Beloved Wife

Proofread by Yu Bing

“What?” Yuexi’s shocked by Ding Ning’s words. Is she just kidding? Yuexi’ve just came to the company for only a few days, and she’s recruited to be in charge of promoting sales. Why would he think of promoting herself to be his secretary? Yuexi’s voice is a bit loud, Ding Ning glares at her, “This is just the general manager’s intention. Whether you can be promoted to this post or not is decided whether you can successfully finish the contract. I tell you this today then you can be mentally prepared.”

Returning back from Ding Ning’s room, Yuexi’s still confused. It’s really confusing. Yuexi doesn’t even know who the general manager is, and she only has met him in the morning. How would this manager come up with such an idea? Yuexi really can’t figure it out, and she doesn’t want to think about it anymore. Therefore, she pats her cheek, takes out her cell phone, and dials Ren Jin’s number, wanting to meet him for lunch to discuss the cooperation between them.

“Why don’t we do it another day? Or maybe in the evening? I’m having dinner with Chen Ying at the moment.” “What a coincidence. I haven’t eaten either. Where are you? Just wait a minute and I’ll be right there.” Ren Cheng has no choice but to tell Yuexi the address. She does rush over there quickly. But when she gets there, she only sees Ren Jin alone.

She looks around and asks Ren Jin, “I thought you were with Chen Ying. Where is she?” Ren Jin rolls his eyes at her, “In the bathroom. Are you sure this is appropriate? It’s not easy for me to have lunch with her alone, and now you’re here, wanting to talk about some kind of cooperation with me!”

Yuexi shrugs and sighs, “Alas, I don’t mean to. But my boss is always pushing me, therefore, I’ve to work overtime. Oh, I almost forget, I just met the general manager of our Fengcheng branch today, and you guess what?” “What?” Ren Jin looks at her with an indifferent face, “What? Has he offended you?” Yuexi looks at him in a bad mood, “Can’t you think of something better? What I’m talking about is related to you. He said that he’s an old classmate of yours.”

Ren Jin doesn’t feel surprised at all. Yuexi looks at him and feels the urge to say something. She suddenly realizes something, “You’ve already known?” He nods, “Yeah, I know. Hua Linfeng.” Yuexi changes into an angry look, “Then why you didn’t even tell me?” Ren Jin looks at her with an innocent face, “Should I be blamed for this? It should have nothing to do with you whether I know him or not. Moreover, I didn’t know this until I checked your company’s profile after deciding to do business with you.”

“What are you guys talking about?” At that moment, Chen Ying, who has gone to the restroom, comes back and sees them chatting so happily. So she asks. “Talking about our contract, talking about that General Manger of mine, Hua Linfeng. He is an old classmate of his.” Yuexi says as she points at Ren Jin. Chen Ying frowns and tries to search her memory. “Hua Linfeng?” Seeing her being like this, Yuexi feels strange and asks, “Why? You know him too?”

Chen Ying shakes her head after thinking for a while, “I don’t think I know him. Though I can’t remember, it seems like I’ve heard the name somewhere else.” Ren Jin eagerly pulls out a chair for Chen Ying, “If you can’t remember, then forget it. Let’s eat something first.” Yuexi raises her eyebrows. Her eyes sweep back and forth over the two of them.

Chen Ying feels speechless as she looks at Yuexi, “What’s wrong? Why looking at us like that?” Yuexi smiles and waves her hand, “No, there’s nothing wrong. What kind of looks can I have? It’s just that you guys are on good terms.” Chen Ying lifts her chin slightly and stretches out her hand to pat Ren Jin on the shoulder, “That’s true, we’ve been officially gone from ordinary friends to good buddies.”

Ren Jin, who is sitting on the side, chuckles at Yuexi’s words. But the sudden pat on the shoulder makes his smile stiffen a bit. But he quickly recovers and nods with a smile, “Yeah, we’re good buddies now.” Seeing that the atmosphere becomes slightly awkward, Yuexi reaches into her bag, takes out the contract she has prepared, and hands it to Ren Jin, “Here, this is the contract I prepared according to our general manager’s wishes. Take a look at it. To see whether there’s any problem.”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Ren Jin nods as he slightly feels grateful. Then he takes the folder from Yuexi’s hand, flips it open, and examines it carefully. As he examines it, he suddenly says, “By the way, Hua Linfeng is the prince of Kang Yuan Group. Why would he suddenly come to Fengcheng to be a general manager?”

Yuexi is completely dumbed, “What did you just say?” Ren Jin looks at her strangely, “What? Didn’t you know?” Yuexi rolls her eyes, “How long have I been working in Kang Yuan? How can I know that much? Also, he’s been a mysterious man all the time. I probably wouldn’t even know about him, much less see him, if it weren’t for this collaboration with you.”

Ren Jin shrugs his shoulders and gives the folder back to Yuexi, “Even though so many years has passed, I still trust him. Let’s just settle this contract. We have to find out when we have time to sign it.” Thinking that her first big business would be made so soon, Yuexi feels very happy. She puts the folder back into her bag and nods with a smile, “Good, no problem. I’ll report to the general manager and see how he will arrange it. I’ll tell you about it then.”

“Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation in advance.” Ren Jin also seems happy, holding a wine glass and toasts it to Yuexi. Yuexi takes a cup of tea and smiles apologetically, “I have to go to work in the afternoon, so I will use tea instead of wine. I wish us a happy cooperation.” After the meal, Chen Ying grabs Yuexi. Until Ren Jin leaves, she says, “I remember it.”

“What? What do you remember?” Yuexi looks at her confused, not knowing the meanings of her sudden words. Chen Ying hesitates before she speaks, “The one you just mention, your general manager, Hua Linfeng. When I went to the nightclub last night, I ran into a handsome guy and he was also called Hua Linfeng.” Yuexi’s eyes widened. “Is it a coincidence? No way! Is he the same person? It’s possible they happen to have just the same name?”

Chen Ying shakes her head, “I’m pretty sure that’s your general manager, Hua Linfeng. Because when this guy came over to talk to me at the club last night, I thought he came to flirt me, but later I found out that he came to me deliberately to ask about something about you!” “What?” Yuexi almost screams out loud. She suddenly recalls in the morning he asked her so many personal questions in the office. Her heart beats fast. Is this guy investigating into her on purpose? But why? Yuexi doesn’t know him at all!

Yuexi also thinks about the words Ding Ning said to herself today that he also wanted her to be his secretary. Yuexi frowns deeper. Does he have any purpose in approaching me? Yuexi shakes her head again and smiles bitterly. What purpose can he have? She is worth nothing at all. She has no money and has been divorced twice, while he is the prince of the Kang Yuan Group. He can have all kinds of women if he desires and will not lay his eyes on Yuexi at all.

Chen Ying frowns when she sees Yuexi frowning, then shaking her head and smiling bitterly. She couldn’t help feeling worried, “Little Yueyue, does he want to do anything to you? Or should we resign? Call the police? Or we can call the police!” Yuexi calms her down by saying, “It’s okay. Don’t worry, it’s okay. I have nothing to worry about till now. His assistant told me today that he wanted me to be his secretary, maybe that’s the reason why he wants to investigate into me in advance. After all, he is the prince of the Kang Yuan group. How can he just ask someone to be his secretary without giving her a thorough checkup?”

Chen Ying still looks at her in disbelief, “Really?” Yuexi smiles back at her, “Of course! When did I lie to you? Ding Ning just told me this morning that I may officially take the job after completing the cooperation with Ren Jin.” Until then, Chen Ying barely breathes a sigh of relief, “I was scared to death. I thought you were being targeted by some creepy men again.” Yuexi steps forward, gives her a hug, and says, “Don’t worry, I will take care of myself. Besides, I still have you by my side. I won’t be abducted by someone else.” While comforting Chen Ying, Yuexi still has doubts in her heart. Why does he ask me to be his secretary this casually!
