“Chief Su, are you joking with me?”

Li Tian stood outside the President’s office, only to find out that the President wasn’t coming to work today.

Su Xiao Yue was curious as Lin Yi had never been late since she started working. Su Xiao Yue also knew that she would usually be free during this time, as Lin Yi would be in her office drinking a warm cup of coffee.

She only dragged Li Tian to the office because she knew Lin Yi too well, but she never expected that this would happen. For the first time, Lin Yi was actually absent from work.

“Since she’s absent, I guess you can go.”

Su Xiao Yue ignored Li Tian’s complaining, and left after speaking.

“You… You… Forget it, I’ll be the bigger person!”

Li Tian couldn’t do much, as she was his superior.

He then walked into the office, and distributed the breakfast. Li Tian finally got a taste of mayhem at the office.

These beautiful girls usually woke up late and didn’t have enough time in the morning for breakfast. Although Li Tian got himself some dumplings, he quickly realised that there was only a packet of soy milk left before his eyes.

“Umm… Tian, are you having the soy milk?”

Shu Qing Qing asked shyly. She was one of the earliest to get her breakfast and devoured it in seconds. She had her eyes on the last packet of soy milk, and hence, came to ask Li Tian.

As he glanced at her expression, coupled with her tone, Li Tian was unable to refuse her.

“Yeah, I’ve had my breakfast already. If you’re still hungry, you can have it.”

As soon as he finished his sentence, the packet of soy milk vanished from his hands.

These aren’t goddesses! They’re more like the reincarnations of starved ghosts! I haven’t eaten for the past three meals, I’m starving, too!

Although he was slightly hungry, it was still bearable for Li Tian. After all, it wasn’t like he had never experienced being deprived of food before.

However, he made sure to remember to buy extras next time, as having more leftovers would be better in this case.

Perhaps the food Li Tian bought was really delicious, or maybe it was because everyone was just feeling really hungry, but soon, the office became extremely noisy.

These goddesses were cold in front of strangers, but in front of people they were comfortable with, they acted extremely carefree. Everyone in the office was close with each other, and there was nothing to hide.

“I’ve had a bite, do you want it?”

“Who cares? Bring it over!”

One dumpling shared by two people, not to mention that it was a xiaolongbao.

Although their jobs paid well, who could’ve imagined that having breakfast would be such a luxury to them?

…

Li Tian’s duties were as simple as they could get. He only needed to open the folders and tidy up some materials. As for the rest of the time, he used his office computer to play games.

He played every type of games except for online ones.

In online games, you had to battle with real people, so there were always internet trolls. Li Tian didn’t want to make himself suffer.

In a blink of an eye, it had become noon. However, Su Xiao Yue hadn’t been in the office and all of the girls in the PR department were just sitting there.

In Li Tian’s mind, he thought, don’t the girls in the PR department have to go for business meetings often?

Curiosity drove Li Tian to ask Chen Ya Jing. She just looked at him in a bizarre manner. She couldn’t believe that he had just asked her about this.

“You didn’t hear about it? Our PR department will have a break next week for five days. Everyone is busy tidying up the materials they currently have.”

“What? Who’d you hear this from?”

Li Tian asked.

“Your computer. Our office has an internal system where all notices are announced. Everyone should have received it by now.”

“Really? I don’t think I received it on mine.”

Li Tian navigated around his computer screen, as if he wanted to show Chen Ya Jing.

Chen Ya Jing looked at Li Tian’s screen and laughed upon seeing the window of a backgammon game.

“You’ve been playing computer games?”

“Yeah, I’ve done everything and there’s nothing else left to do.”

“But you still can’t play games. The company has rules that you need to follow, not to mention all that all the computers are monitored. If the boss knows about this, you’re dead.”

“Don’t joke around, I was just playing a game, what can she say?”

“It’s not like that, she’s very strict with us. Rules are rules. Quick, close the game window. The icon for the noticeboard is this one. It’s also like a chatroom where you can use with chat with others, but usually only the boss uses it to announce important news.”

Chen Ya Jing reminded Li Tian.

Li Tian assumed that the “boss” that Chen Ya Jing kept mentioning was Su Xiao Yue. That woman always had a cold expression, as if everyone owed her money. However, her appearance was perfect.

Li Tian exited the game and when he looked into internal system, there was a public chatroom and also a private message sent by Su Xiao Yue.

“Come quickly to my office!”

She had only sent one sentence. Li Tian glanced at the time and realised that she had sent this message over half an hour ago.

“Uhh.. Ya Jing, I have a question. How’s the boss’ temper like? For example, if she’s looking for you and you’re late to respond, how will she react?”

“Why would we be late? The boss’ words are final, who dares be late?”

That one sentence sent chills down Li Tian’s spine.

Darn it, why does everyone else receive notifications whenever someone sends them a message, except me?

…

“Come in!”

An unfriendly voice sounded from Su Xiao Yue’s office.

Li Tian opened the door carefully and looked inside.

Su Xiao Yue’s back was facing him, and he couldn’t really see her facial expressions.

“Uhh… Chief Su, I’m here.”

“Oh? When did I tell you to come here?”

“It was… around… 9am?”

“Around? I called you in at 8:55, do you know what time it is now? 9:40! Li Tian, I thought you were talented and suited our company’s standards, but look at your attitude! I won’t say much about that day at the career fair, but what about now? Do you have any excuse?”

Su Xiao Yue was furious. She initially wanted to order Li Tian to get some documents but didn’t expect that he would be 40 minutes late. In the end, she had no choice but to run the errand herself.

“I really have a reason for this. The company’s too big, I’ve been searching so hard for your office.”

Li Tian said while scratching his head.

“You…”

Su Xiao Yue was stunned. Anger was evident in her face, and she was even shaking from the provocation.

The atmosphere became tense between the both of them, but right at this moment, Su Xiao Yue’s phone rang.

She had no time to get angry at Li Tian, and accepted the phone call.

“What? How did this happen? Go immediately to supervise everyone there, I’ll head over there now!”

After finishing her sentence, Su Xiao Yue ended her phone call hastily. She took her handbag and headed to the door.

However, as she walked in front of Li Tian, she suddenly stopped.

“Do you know how to drive?”

“I do.”

“Okay, follow me!”

Li Tian’s decision didn’t matter to her. Su Xiao Yue took him by the arm and headed outside.
