After Being Targeted by the Gloomy and Obsessive Movie Queen - Chapter 50

Chapter 50: Intimacy – A Full View of Xu Yinyu’s Intimacy with Other Women…

“Hurry up, Xiaoxiao. The person coming this time is from the headquarters.” The Administrative Director, Yu Zhen, urgently prompted the young girl opposite her.

Under the Director’s urging, the young, green-looking Xiaoxiao also showed anxiety. “Almost, Sister Yu. Should I bring the project proposal?”

“Not yet. Our task is to welcome the new director. Just show the necessary courtesy and make sure she can’t find fault.” Yu Zhen had worked closely with Jiao Lu for years and was familiar with his methods and routines.

Normally, when a special appointee from the headquarters came here, no one would be specially dispatched to meet them.

The fact that Jiao Lu handed the reception task to her indicated that this new director from the headquarters was not to be trifled with.

At least, Jiao Lu couldn’t afford to offend her.

But Jiao Lu was equally critical and dissatisfied with this new director, otherwise, he wouldn’t have delegated the matter, passing the responsibility to her.

The two quickly walked into the elevator in their high heels.

The elevator doors opened to both sides. Just then, the company’s glass main door opened as well. Yu Zhen and Xiaoxiao froze for a moment, seeing the Chief Assistant walking ahead, enthusiastically paving the way for the person behind her.

The two quickly composed themselves and approached with smiles.

Only then did they get a clear look at the woman behind the Chief Assistant: she wore a tailored black suit dress and a snow-white shirt, with a cool, elegant appearance. She wore silver-rimmed glasses, and after a quick, indifferent glance around the company, she swiftly withdrew her gaze and settled it upon them.

Yu Zhen and Xiaoxiao felt like their eyes had been cleansed; they even forgot how to greet her.

Yu Zhen only paused for a second before quickly recovering. “Director Xu, hello. I am the Administrative Director, Yu Zhen. I didn’t expect you to be so young, let alone have such outstanding professional ability.”

Xu Yinyu smiled calmly. “Naturally, I don’t have the rich experience of my seniors, but I am fortunate to have the appreciation of General Manager Cheng.”

“Then let me take you to see your office,” the Chief Assistant offered.

Xu Yinyu nodded. “Thank you for the trouble.”

Yu Zhen and Xiaoxiao watched Xu Yinyu leave. Not until the elevator door closed did the red-faced Xiaoxiao dare to speak. “So beautiful. Her voice is so lovely, Sister Yu. I think I’m in love.”

Yu Zhen turned and lightly flicked the daydreaming Xiaoxiao. “What are you talking about? General Manager Jiao is too afraid to offend this formidable figure. If you provoke her, do you still want your job?”

Xiaoxiao shook her head frantically. “I’ll keep the job. Such beauty is beyond our enjoyment.”

“Hurry up and take the project promotion proposal to Director Xu. Don’t make her ask for it herself,” Yu Zhen reminded her.

Xiaoxiao nodded, the smile she had just managed to conjure instantly collapsing.

Xu Yinyu walked into her office, finding the Chief Assistant’s office directly opposite hers.

The Chief Assistant respectfully asked, “Director Xu, is there anything else you need?”

Xu Yinyu said, “No. I just want to see the proposal for the HM Q2 project promotion as soon as possible and finalize a general direction today.”

The Chief Assistant agreed, said a few words of concern, and then left.

After she left, Xu Yinyu immediately slumped into the executive chair. The fatigue of keeping her back straight was now replaced by comfort.

Xu Yinyu used her fingers to push up her sagging glasses and heard a knock on the door. “Come in.”

Xiaoxiao entered, holding a stack of documents. “Director Xu, this is our proposal for the HM Q2 project promotion. Please review it.”

Xu Yinyu quickly scanned it, frowning intermittently.

The proposal could not be called full of loopholes, but it was rife with minor flaws. A quick glance revealed several fundamental errors.

“I’d like to ask, who created this proposal?” Xu Yinyu’s face darkened after reading it.

All the color drained from Xiaoxiao’s face. She was so nervous that her speech became difficult. “It, it was done by me, and reviewed by our director. Because the time was urgent, there might indeed be some errors…”

Xu Yinyu had always focused on the matter, not the person. “Who is the personnel designated to handle this project?”

The project Xu Yinyu was in charge of was not an ordinary small project. Personnel allocation had to be reasonable. If the promotion was profitable, the company could rely on this project for five years of stability.

But it sounded like there weren’t many people assigned to this project.

“We haven’t recruited anyone yet. General Manager Jiao said HM’s principle is to prefer scarcity over low quality. Everyone in the company is currently bogged down with work and doesn’t have the time or energy to take on this task…” Xiaoxiao’s voice grew quieter and less confident toward the end.

This meant she was expected to be a one-woman army? With no soldiers under her command, how could she move forward?

Xiaoxiao had expected Xu Yinyu to burst into a rage, but she didn’t anticipate the other party would let out a gentle scoff.

Xiaoxiao froze in place, bewildered at how Xu Yinyu could laugh under these circumstances.

Xu Yinyu asked softly, “What is your name?”

Xiaoxiao quickly replied, “You can just call me Xiaoxiao. I am the assistant General Manager Jiao assigned to you.”

“Xiaoxiao, please help me print fifty copies of this proposal and distribute them to the senior management, especially put two extra copies in General Manager Jiao’s office.” The smile on Xu Yinyu’s face was sincere, but her words were remarkably abstract.

Xiaoxiao gasped, looking at Xu Yinyu in disbelief, and asked again, “Do you really want to send a copy to every member of the senior management team?”

Xu Yinyu nodded seriously. “Yes. Thank you for your trouble.”

Xiaoxiao walked out, half-dazed.

Xu Yinyu poured herself a cup of warm water and gulped it down. The anger welling up in her heart finally subsided.

A rebellious smile slowly curved on her lips. Since they wanted her to give up so much, she would definitely not give them what they wished for.

Jiao Lu was currently overwhelmed with various company affairs. Regarding the intimidating figure of Xu Yinyu, he adopted a method of passive-aggressive neglect: ignoring her arrival and not bothering her, even assigning her a newly appointed assistant with zero experience.

A knock sounded on the door.

Jiao Lu peered out from behind the messy documents. “Come in.”

Xiaoxiao hesitantly placed the documents on General Manager Jiao’s desk. Jiao Lu took them with surprise. “Director Xu finalized the proposal so quickly? That’s fast.”

Jiao Lu’s words of appreciation were swallowed whole the moment he spread the document out.

Is this a project proposal?

It didn’t even match the level of a high school student’s argumentative essay.

Jiao Lu was enraged. He slapped the document away. “What is the meaning of this from Director Xu? Is she showing me a primary school student’s diary?”

Xiaoxiao dared not be angry, only meekly explaining, “This is the proposal I wrote for Director Xu. After reading it, Director Xu asked me to distribute a copy to each senior management personnel. This copy is for you.”

Jiao Lu finally glanced at Xiaoxiao, finally understanding the meaning of this document that was unsuitable for public presentation. “Did your Director Xu say anything else?”

Jiao Lu really couldn’t bear the loss of face.

If Xu Yinyu dared to send the document to his company’s internal senior management today, tomorrow she might distribute a copy to everyone in the company, or even, if pushed too far, send a copy to the opposing company.

This document truly had no impact on him in the business world.

But it was enough to make him lose face in the realm of reputation.

Xiaoxiao’s mind quickly activated. She instantly understood. “The Planning Director hasn’t been assigned a team yet. The project cannot be initiated.”

Jiao Lu scratched his head, finally gritting his teeth and assigning some of his elite staff. “Tell Assistant Jiang. He’ll handle it.”

Xiaoxiao thanked him with bright eyes and left, satisfied.

“Director Xu, you’re amazing! You actually managed to get General Manager Jiao to assign you a strong team!” Xiaoxiao rushed into Xu Yinyu’s office like the wind, smiling.

“Xiaoxiao, General Manager Jiao is simply kind-hearted,” Xu Yinyu corrected her, but the smile on her lips betrayed her little scheme.

“Go notify these people. We’ll have a group meeting in one hour,” Xu Yinyu said, regaining her serious demeanor.

Xiaoxiao grinned, showing her teeth. “Okay, I’ll go right now.”

Xu Yinyu categorized and organized the data, poured herself a cup of warm water, and sat back down at her desk, concentrating on organizing market data.

The crystal lamp in the office was subtle and soft. The clear white light provided an expansive view.

Yu Shujin sat in the conference room, discussing a business contract face-to-face with Jiao Lu.

“General Manager Jiao,” Yu Shujin’s voice naturally carried a cold, commanding tone, like cold metal that unconsciously drew one’s emotions. “Wanyu Group places great importance on this investment. Please do not disappoint our expectations.”

Jiao Lu chuckled. “President Yu, we’ve collaborated so many times. When have I ever disappointed you? Don’t worry, we are professionals in advertisement promotion.”

Chi Xia collected the signed and sealed contract between the two parties.

Yu Shujin’s expression was indifferent, but she suddenly made a request. “I wonder if General Manager Jiao has time to show me around your company’s design.”

Jiao Lu gasped, looking confused. Assistant Jiang nudged Jiao Lu, who then reacted. “Of course, I have time. Since President Yu is interested, I must tell you about our HM’s unique company culture.”

As Jiao Lu excitedly introduced the company culture along the way, he also mentioned some of the employee benefits.

Yu Shujin’s expression did not soften. “Why is the rest time for your employees so short?”

Jiao Lu was confused. Seriously? As a fellow boss, why are you talking about charity with me?

When Yu Shujin asked this question aloud, the employees in the office area all looked up. Jiao Lu’s face flushed, and he could only walk quickly.

“That’s, of course, because we pay high salaries,” Assistant Jiang offered a convenient excuse for Jiao Lu.

Jiao Lu nodded. “Yes, yes, we have overtime pay. We are not a unscrupulous company, President Yu, please rest assured.”

Yu Shujin’s eyes landed on the door of the Planning Director’s office. She feigned curiosity and asked, “General Manager Jiao, you just said this office can see the whole of A-City. Can I go inside and take a look?”

Jiao Lu peered ahead and nodded readily. He desperately wished the person inside would be blind enough to thoroughly offend Yu Shujin, so she would roll back to Country S.

Jiao Lu even knocked on the door very quickly, fearing Yu Shujin’s curiosity would vanish in the next second.

Assistant Jiang pushed the door open. “Director Xu, sorry to interrupt. Our General Manager Jiao is touring the company with President Yu of Wanyu Group and wanted to pay you a visit.”

As he finished speaking, he instantly fell silent upon seeing the intimate posture between Xu Yinyu and Xiaoxiao.

Xu Yinyu was sitting in front of the computer. Xiaoxiao, who should have been sitting at the assistant’s desk, was leaning against Xu Yinyu’s arm. The two were huddled together looking at the computer screen.

Although Yu Shujin stood behind Assistant Jiang and Jiao Lu, she had a full view of the scene of Xu Yinyu and Xiaoxiao leaning close together.
