There is an optical illusion about every person we meet.

Even if it didn't seem obvious all the ladies in the office are eyeing to know how their boss actually look like, since they were hired through other higher-ups and never got the chance to see how the heir of Lee Corporation looks like. The elevator door opens and Lee Jun Ting walks out first and Wu Feng Yuan follows behind.
The ladies got their heart stolen as soon as he walks out of the elevator. They swoon over his looks and his body portion. The ladies started whispering as both of them walk past. " Omg... both of them are hot but the one in the black suit is better looking a hundred times !"
" I always hear he is handsome. I didn't expect he was THAT handsome. He is like a god !"
" I also heard he is single.. a woman doesn't want him?"
" Maybe his taste is high, you know?"
" What are you talking about ? Of course he has! He is the sole heir you know?!"
" Ahem."
Just then the gossiping rage was interrupted by someone. The ladies immediately get back to work as soon as they saw her. The Director of Marketing Department, Song Mina. She is a demon when it comes to working, she rarely comes to the office and works at home. She comes to the office only when there is something important. If the demon is here today, that means she is here to interview the new people for the job. Aside from the Boss, the newbies would have to look out for her too.
Aside from the Boss, the newbies would have to look out for her too. One of the employee tries to find an excuse " Ms Mina, you..you are back. I was just about to-"
" If we don't increase the sales of the company by 50% this month, your salary will be deducted." she walks off as soon as she scolded them. The employees didn't dare to complain or they would be courting death.
Song Mina walks in and sees the rest of the directors already there but Song Mina's eyes are on Lee Jun Ting. It has been months since she last saw him. She has always admired the man and even have the urge to date someone like him. Out of all the women in the corporation, she is the best suitable to be his wife. That's what make her proud of it. She has been waiting for the invitation to this day, hopefully, today.
" Mr. Lee, you are here early." she greeted him. Lee Jun Ting didn't look up at her and continue to scroll through his inbox on his phone " Better to start early than finish late."
The reply made Mina awkward but she brushes it off and take a seat. The directors wonder why is their boss doing all the way from N city, he usually never attend interviews like this. Maybe because it's a higher position. Feng Yuan then whispers to Jun Ting that everyone is here and ready to start the interview. Lee Jun Ting nods and Feng Yuan then announces " Let's begin."
The first one came in. The hectic interview begins.
_____________
The interviewees in the waiting room were all nervous as they see one by one when someone goes in and comes out with a devastated face. Some didn't even last for 5 minutes in the room. Some come out crying. What is going in the room?
The tension broke when they heard the door of the room open, a young woman walks in. She looks like a goddess. Compare to the other women that put on thick makeup to impress the heir of the corporation, this woman had a bare face only with a light lip tint. Everyone watches her as she walks into the room with her head down. Zhou Qin Yang was caught in a small traffic so she came a little later than others, she was glad it wasn't her turn yet. However, she mind the attention she is getting. Her anxiety is starting again because of it.
Her palms became sweaty as she heard the people whispering. She didn't know what they were whispering about but she is conscious about it. Afraid that they are talking about her. The woman beside her decides to take initiative to talk to her " Hello. I'm Chaerin. What's your name?"
She looks up at the woman, she looked younger than her. She had a gentle smile, she looked friendly. Qin Yang wants to reply to her greetings but her inner voice keeps telling her something else 'She is evil. She will betray you, don't trust her.'
Her breathing got a bit heavier before she knew it, her anxiety kick in. She bit her lips " I'm-" then she was cut off as soon she was about to reply her. " Zhou Qin Yang. Please come with me to the interview." a middle-aged lady walks in with an office attire with a file in her arm. Somehow she was relieved that the lady called for her.
Qin Yang stood up and gave a gentle smile to Chaerin before she walks out of the door. The lady walks a few step ahead of her, Qin Yang continuously fidgets with her fingers to calm herself down. 'You can do this Zhou Qin Yang! Just act like old times when you didn't have anxiety. Just smile. Answer their questions and leave.'
The lady stops and shows her to the room " Here we are. Good luck."
" Thank you." she stares at the wooden door. She took a deep breath and open the door.
