Left alone in the office, Yaoyao didn't understand why the man had suddenly left, but she seized the opportunity to escape as quickly as possible.
As the afternoon wore on, she decided to take advantage of a quiet moment and headed to the department manager's office.
On the way, she accidentally bumped into another girl wearing the same uniform. Yaoyao quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you!"
The girl smiled warmly and replied, "No, no, it's my fault!" She bent down to pick up the envelope Yaoyao had dropped and curiously asked, "A resignation letter? Xiao Luo, are you quitting?"
"Xiao Luo?" Yaoyao blinked in surprise. Taking back the letter, she asked curiously, "Do you know me?"
The girl grinned and introduced herself, "I'm Bai Ling, from your department. You're so cute; everyone's been paying attention to you since you joined, especially the guys." She chuckled mischievously before asking, "But why are you resigning? You just started!"
After a moment of hesitation, Yaoyao explained her misunderstanding about the supposed dealings in the PR department. Bai Ling shook her head firmly, explaining the company's strict policies and the professionalism of the new CEO. Hearing this, Yaoyao realized she'd been tricked.
"Those jerks! I almost gave up a 5,000-a-month job!" Yaoyao clenched her fists in frustration, muttering to herself in the elevator as she checked the time. "Almost time to clock out… I'd better not run into him…"
'Ding.'
The elevator stopped on the 41st floor. As the doors opened, there stood none other than Yu Aotian, alone.
Yaoyao's eyes darted around, and she nervously asked, "Which department will your PR team need tomorrow?"
Yu Aotian raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by her sudden initiative. "If you want, I can make a special arrangement for you."
"No way!" she shot back, glaring. "Tell me, is it true that the President approved other departments to assist your PR team?"
Yu Aotian's eyes narrowed slightly as he stepped closer, sensing something unusual. "Why are you asking?"
"I'm just curious. Such shady dealings… how could they be approved?" Yaoyao tried to keep her voice steady, though her heart was racing.
Yu Aotian stared at her for a long moment, then let out a low chuckle, his tone enigmatic.
"What's so funny?" she pressed, her voice trembling slightly. "Answer me!"
"Answer?" His expression darkened as he closed the distance between them, gently grasping her arm. "Shouldn't I be the one asking what you're up to?"
