Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Sisters Unite_1

“Xiao Ning, I’m so glad you’re here. Without someone I can trust, I’d surely break down with everything that’s going on in the company...” Xu Yixue let out a sigh of relief and slowly said to Ye Xiaoning.

At this moment, a sense of weariness was evident in her demeanor; as a woman, she had to carry the burden of such a large company and could not afford to lose. Xu Yixue felt that she was truly reaching her limit, and desperately wanted to just throw in the towel.

If only she had a strong shoulder to lean on behind her, Xu Yixue thought wearily, and yet, without her control, the image of Xu Fan, that somewhat clueless ironclad straight man with the rigidity of a big log, involuntarily appeared in her mind.

“Tch, I don’t need your help. I can definitely overcome the difficulties by myself. I, Xu Yixue, won’t let you look down on me!” Thinking of Xu Fan, although she found no support, Xu Yixue felt a surge of power rise within her, making the difficulties before her seem not so frightening anymore.

“Yixue sister, when do you think they’ll target our company’s stocks?” Ye Xiaoning asked while taking out the company’s financial reports from the file cabinet in Xu Yixue’s house and analyzing them.

“My guess is next week, because next Tuesday we’re going to sign a large cooperation agreement with Zhonghua Group, a major conglomerate from Zhonghai. So, they’ll definitely carry out their plans before Tuesday, making it very likely that they will act on Monday, the day before we sign the agreement,” Xu Yixue pondered and replied to Ye Xiaoning.

“So next Monday will be the moment of truth. I’ll immediately contact some of my classmates from school; they’ve been working in the industry for years, and two of them are even gold-medal analysts and professional traders. I bet I wouldn’t be any worse than them if I hadn’t joined the Fire Phoenix Special Combat Team,” Ye Xiaoning said a bit confidently.

“Xiao Ning, I trust you. You will definitely save our Xinghai Media!” Xu Yixue’s eyes shone brightly as she looked at Ye Xiaoning.

“Haha, with our hearts united, nothing can stand in our way. We’ll get through the company’s tough times together,” Ye Xiaoning extended her fair hands toward Xu Yixue.

Xu Yixue also reached out her slender palms and clasped hands with Ye Xiaoning firmly.

“Let’s do this!”

“Let’s do this!”

Their bright voices intertwined crisply in the empty office.

It was such a coincidence.

“Sorry, it won’t happen again... Could you not tell Manager Xu about this?” the front desk girl asked Xu Fan with a pleading look.

“Little sister, what kind of person do you think I am, someone who snitches behind people’s backs?” Xu Fan curled his lip, deliberately teasing the adorable girl.

“Yeah, pretty sister, Daddy would never tattle, you can relax. Tongtong is a good person too, and won’t rat you out, hehe...” Tongtong, nestled in Xu Fan’s arms, also gave the front desk lady a sweet, innocent smile.

“Hehe, that’s good, thank you both,” the front desk girl said with a sweet smile upon hearing their words.

“Has Manager Xu finished work for the day?” Xu Fan asked her, seeing that the front desk girl was no longer as embarrassed as before.

“I’m sorry, Manager Xu will be off work in a little while. Do you want me to contact her for you?” the front desk girl offered eagerly to Xu Fan.

After all, she had just been caught playing with her phone by Xu Fan, so she was now very respectful and well-behaved towards him, not showing the same assertiveness as before.

“No need, it looks like it’s almost closing time. We’ll just sit here and wait for a bit,” Xu Fan said, sitting down on the comfortable couch in the lobby with Tongtong in his arms.

Actually, Xu Fan didn’t want to disturb Xu Yixue’s work by going upstairs. As the CEO of the company, she was undoubtedly very busy. If he kept going up to bother her with his daughter during working hours, not only would it look bad, but it might also lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.

“Alright, I’ll pour some tea for you then. Please wait here for a moment. Manager Xu usually finishes work right about this time,” the front desk girl said obediently and turned to go prepare tea for Xu Fan and Tongtong.

Xu Fan sat on Xinghai Media’s soft and comfy couch with Tongtong in his arms, curiously watching the company’s people coming and going.

It wasn’t long before the tea was ready. The front desk girl brought over the tea and said to Xu Fan, “Please enjoy.”

“Thank you, sister!” Tongtong responded to the front desk girl with a charming reply, ahead of everyone else.
