Chapter 333 - Earning from Other Countries, Feels Even Better (3)_1
"Uh, boss. It was me who heard your phone ringing just now, and I was afraid I wouldn’t have time to bring it to you, so I picked it up," Xiao Tao began, organizing her thoughts. "The person on the other end told me to give you a message, to get down to the company entrance within two minutes, or you can kiss the company goodbye. They also said I should go down with you."
By this time, Loo Jianxin had already taken the phone from Xiao Tao’s hand and was looking through the call log. When he saw that phone number, his heart screamed, "Oh no." With that, he grabbed the phone and ran out of the office.
As for Xiao Tao, her following Loo Jianxin downstairs might have been motivated by different thoughts. Consumed with wondering why Situ Xin was coming to the company, Loo Jianxin didn’t notice that she was taking the elevator reserved for him.
When the elevator doors opened, everyone’s gaze shifted from Situ Xin to the new secretary who’d just exited the elevator with the boss. Suddenly, their expressions changed to surprise. They’d often speculated among themselves about who would be the first woman to break the rule and emerge from the boss’s private elevator. They never imagined it would be this new secretary.
Xiao Lili, in particular, had a jealous glint in her eyes as she watched Xiao Tao walk out of the elevator with Loo Jianxin. A closer look would reveal that Xiao Lili seemed ready to lunge forward, grab Xiao Tao by the hair, and drag her away from Loo Jianxin.
When the elevator doors opened, Loo Jianxin’s eyes immediately found Situ Xin, holding Baibai. He focused all his attention on Situ Xin, utterly oblivious to the gazes coming his way.
It was Xiao Tao who noticed the stares. She was aware of the discussions that had taken place, as she had once been part of them, and now she herself had broken the boss’s rule. Seeing the shock and envy in people’s eyes, she couldn’t help but feel pleased with herself.
But Situ Xin’s face darkened when she saw Loo Jianxin stepping out of the private elevator with a young woman. She suspected that her uncle, despite his denials, was once again fooling around behind her aunt’s back. The last misunderstanding had already lowered Situ Xin’s opinion of Loo Jianxin, and she had given him the cold shoulder for a while.
It was only after Loo Jianxin humbled himself and pleaded for forgiveness that Situ Xin grudgingly forgave him. During that time, when he had upset the family darling, Situ Xin, he had faced reproachful looks from everyone at home. Even his little son had refused to deal with him.
