"Okay, Jie, I will teach you the three sacred rules of the first date," Shi Qiang said.
"Yes, Shi Laoshi, I'm all ears!" I replied.
Shi Qiang cleared her throat and said the first rule, "First, do dress elegantly and as attractive as you can."
"First date means first impression. First impression is the longest lasting one man will remember. You need to look your best! Other than makeup, try to tighten your belt, use heels, make yourself look more presentable!"
"Shi Laoshi, I am also a secretary. I know how to take care of myself while not making my boss' wife get jealous of me," I defended myself. Because Shi Qiang's teaching sounded more like an insult to my pride as a secretary.
"Oh yes, I know Jie," Shi Qiang nodded. "But your boss is a 50-something uncle! His preference is all nineties style! Ying Jie, you look more like a relic than a high fashion secretary in 2021!"
