âOh, I hacked one of the companyâs program codes. That program is very complicated. It will probably take a few days to recover. What do you think? Iâm quite clever, right?â Gao Qiao looked like he was asking for praise.
âAre you crazy?â Ye Yao shouted angrily. âI asked you to lure Huo Buyu away for the time being. I didnât ask you to exhaust him!â
Gao Qiao was dumbfounded. So his good intention ended up being a bad thing?
The line went dead. Gao Qiao looked at the phone and hurriedly sent a message to Ye Yao: Grandaunt, donât be angry. I promise I wonât do it again. Iâll go to the office now to stand in for Huo Buyu. Donât jinx me while Iâm looking the other way. I beg you.
At this point, Ye Yaoâs heart began to ache for Huo Buyu, she also started the process of self-reflection. Ultimately, it was her fault. Huo Buyu had been too strict with her, causing her to be rebellious. She went against him whatever he said, whether he was being reasonable or otherwise. Now she realized the flaw in her attitude. She had caused Huo Buyu a lot of trouble, and in turn that made her unhappy. Moreover, Huo Buyu was a busy man. On top of that he had to worry about herâ¦
The fact was, the person who troubled Huo Buyu the most was Ye Yao. Even when he was busy at work, his mind would be wondering if Ye Yao was up to mischief, and if she was exercising her jinxing ability in a casual manner. It was driving him to the edge of sanity.
Huo Buyuâs assistant arrived very quickly and brought Ye Yao to the office. The car was parked downstairs. Huo Buyu said that he would come down immediately, so Ye Yao played with her phone while waiting in the car.
âHey, hereâs a gift for you.â At this point, Ye Yao heard a familiar voice. When she looked up, she saw Jiang Yun, in a dress, chatting enthusiastically with the young lady at the company reception. Ye Yao also noticed that Jiang Yunâs gift to the young lady at the front desk was actually some high-end cosmetics.
Ye Yao raised her eyebrows. Jiang Yun was making an effort to pay attention to the receptionist of Huo Buyuâs company? How impressive.
The receptionist seemed very happy. She was especially fond of Jiang Yun. Although Jiang Yun didnât visit often, sheâd always bring her expensive and luxurious gifts whenever she did come. Who wouldnât like free stuff?
Then, the receptionist glanced at the car parked at the door and in Ye Yaoâs direction. She said to Jiang Yun, âI hear that the person sitting in that car is CEO Huoâs girlfriend, but I think that the girl is inferior to you in every way. I donât know what CEO Huo is thinking. Why would he like an ugly duckling rather than an elegant person like you, Miss Jiang.â
Wasnât the very casual Ye Yao an ugly duckling compared to Jiang Yun, who was always immaculately dressed?
Jiang Yun glanced at Ye Yao, who was outside, and said to the receptionist with a smile, âDonât talk nonsense. Iâm very close to your CEO Huo. Weâre like close friends. He has a girlfriend now, and Iâll have a boyfriend in the future. Huo Buyuâs girlfriend will be angry if you say things like that. Donât ever utter these words again.â
Jiang Yun spoke in a nice tone and even reminded the receptionist gently. However, what she had said implied that Ye Yao was very petty and was calculative over such a small matter.
The receptionist curled her lips in disdain. âIâm not afraid even if sheâs angry.
How can such an ordinary person be worthy of CEO Huo? In my opinion, only Miss Jiang is worthy of CEO Huo. The two of you are a match made in heaven. I wonder what CEO Huo is thinkingâ¦â
âEnough already.â Jiang Yun emphasized and patted the receptionistâs shoulder. âI have a set of lipsticks in my car. Iâll bring it to you later. Youâre not allowed to say these things again, otherwise Iâll be angry.â
When the receptionist heard that Jiang Yun was going to give her a lipstick set, she immediately beamed with joy. âThank you, Miss Jiang.â After receiving the benefits from Jiang Yun, she found Ye Yao even more displeasing to the eye.
She wasnât even married to CEO Huo and already, she despised rank and file employees like them. This was unlike Miss Jiang Yun, who was polite to low ranking employees even though she came from such a prestigious background. She was indeed dignified, cultured and well-mannered! n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jiang Yun nodded at the receptionist and walked towards the door. When she came up to the car, she looked through the window, smiled and greeted, âMiss Ye, what a coincidence.â
Ye Yao came out of the car with a smile. âItâs indeed a coincidence, but Miss Jiang plays the cello, right? My boyfriendâs company is a technology company and doesnât match Miss Jiangâs profession. I wonder what brings Miss Jiang here?â
Jiang Yun smiled and took out a few tickets. âThereâs a grand concert tonight.
Huo Buyuâs sister, Huo Buran, asked me to help give these tickets to Huo Buyu. Since Miss Ye is here, Iâll have to trouble Miss Ye to pass them to Huo Buyu. I wonât be going upstairs..â
