Chapter 825 - Fire Another



Chapter 825: Fire Another

She reached her hand out and picked up the flower base before throwing it into the dustbin next to her.

It had no life already; what was the use of leaving it there?

Then, she went back to the eighteenth floor and saw an unfamiliar secretary outside. Why? Was Secretary Xiao Chen not here anymore? There were many new faces in the company and even more old people. The welfare here was good with high pay so it would be foolish for them to leave.

Once the secretary saw Xia Ruoxin, she squinted and did not quite believe her. There was a growing discomfort in her chest.

Xia Ruoxin understood her judgments and sizing up.

Chu Lui’s admirer.

She went forward but was halted by the secretary.

“Sorry, Miss. Our CEO is busy. You need to wait for a while.” The secretary pulled a face, and she looked professional; however, anyone could hear the explosives in her voice which was about to detonate.

Not many people had access to the lift that could bring them to the eighteenth floor. In the entire company, there were not more than ten.

She knew and understood this simple logic. However, her jealousy had messed with her brains and she forgot about her work. She did not come here to be jealous but to handle documents and arrange the CEO’s schedule.

She should not think that she could enjoy benefits from a favorable position. Chu Lui was a weird person and would never have anything to do with his secretary or have an intense office romance. This person did not like to eat the grass beside him.

However, some people just did not know their limits and were bent on asking for trouble.

Oh, not let her in? Xia Ruoxin decisively went down to her own office and sat on the chair. She was not afraid of the dirt; actually, it was not that dirty as she knew that a cleaner would come clean the place every day. Even if the office space was empty, it would only be clean and not have a single speck of dust.

She kicked the shoes away and suddenly felt a little cold. She hugged her legs, and suddenly, she really missed Rainy.

“Baby, where are you? Are you okay? Is it dark there? Do you miss Mommy...?”

Suddenly, she banged her head towards the wall and bit the back of her hand before she started crying soundlessly. Yes, she did not even dare to cry out loud.

She hugged her knees tightly and leaned her forehead against her knees. Perhaps she fell asleep or she was hurting, there was a wound that was spreading and increased in intensity; it was hard to bear.

At this time, she did not know that the entire eighteenth floor had become an ice palace.

Secretary Xiao Chen patted her forehead before going to the pantry. This dumb thing. How many times had she said that being Chu Lui’s secretary would let her rise but only to the top floor and on top of the welfare benefits? As for the others, she should not even think about it. If not, she had to leave. She especially could not have an interest in Chu Lui.

At first, she wanted to have an extra assistant for herself so that she could rest. Just now, she knew that Xia Ruoxin came by; but she did not go out and wanted to see this new secretary’s capabilities. Great. Now, her dreams had vanished; and she could continue being a slave.

Humans were all killed by work, and since they wanted to work, there was only a thin line of ‘I can’t do it’ in between living and death.

“You asked her to leave?” Chu Lui squinted dangerously, and his ice-cold gaze almost pricked the new secretary’s heart.

The secretary’s teeth started chattering, but she did not dare answer.

“Where is she?” he asked again.

“She? What ‘she’?” The secretary’s eyes were already red. How was she supposed to know? Where was she supposed to find her in this big company?

“If you ask me, who do I ask?” Chu Lui stepped forward and almost clenched his fingers until it cracked. Suddenly, the secretary felt a chill on her neck and stepped back unknowingly. She opened her mouth and was prepared to scream for help.

“Where is she?” Chu Lui asked again. Even though it was only three words, these three words were enough to crush the secretary.

“I...” The secretary raised her head. Once she saw Chu Lui’s scary eyes, her legs went weak. Boom! She fell on the floor.

Chu Lui walked straight past her, and the secretary’s body was shaking like a fallen leaf, afraid that the big foot would step right onto her. The foot was really big and that one stomp would definitely kill her.

Until the elevator door closed, she still maintained her posture. Then, a pair of high heels stopped in front of her.

She raised her head, and her colorless lips trembled.

“Sister Chen...”

Secretary Xiao Chen squatted down, extended her hand, and tidied the secretary’s hair. “Come on, go to the human resource department and wait.”

“Wait? Wait for what?”

The secretary did not understand. Her entire body broke out in cold sweat. She felt terrible and was frightened until her heart stopped functioning.

“Wait for what?” Secretary Xiao Chen pitied her quite a bit.

Sigh, help her.

What else could she do? Get lost.

Chu Lui had already run around the whole building a few times but could not even find her.

He kept calling Xia Ruoxin’s phone, but no one answered. Then, he remembered that Xia Ruoxin’s phone was in his office, and she did not even have it.

He had run everywhere and looked for her everywhere: the toilet, the pantry, almost every single place; but he could not find her. He had even used the CCTV, but she did not go out. Then, where could she be?

Suddenly, he thought of something.

He went on the specialized elevator and went straight to the seventeenth floor.

Gently, he opened the door; and as expected, Xia Ruoxin was sitting right inside. Her entire body was huddled on the chair, and her shoes were thrown aside. She seemed to have fallen asleep as her thin arm was exposed at the side. Her arm was almost transparent, and it was so thin until it could snap with a bend.

Chu Lui walked over, squatted down, and carried her up. She almost did not have any feelings, and her lashes were very long and lay down softly.

When she returned to his office, he saw Du Jingtang squatting on the floor and comforting the dumb and stupid secretary. Secretary Xiao Chen was rolling her eyes at the side as no matter how much he comforted her, she still had to leave.

Chu Lui walked past them, and Du Jingtang could not do anything about the new secretary that was going to lose her job. He patted her shoulders gently. “Go settle your accounts with the human resource department. Hurry and don’t let him see you.”

The ‘him’ was none other than Chu Lui.
