Everything should have been good before it happened. I got so angry, throwing all the materials to the ground.
There was a gap between Leon and me that could never be crossed no matter how hard I tried.
After sitting around for a while, I picked up the materials on the ground and continued to work.
Leon was right. Since I was bound to look for a job anyway, why not do this job well which was provided elaborately by him?
As a person without college degree like me, millions of years pay was only a dream. Now the dream was realized in front of me, why not seize this opportunity?
In this case, even if Leon thought nothing of me and kicked me out, I had actually been an assistant of senior president after all.
As my insights and abilities differentiated from ordinary housewives, I need not to worry about getting a decent job or living a hard life as in the past.
Later, someone knocked on the door again. I thought it was Leon and not going to respond.
It turned out to be Zhen. She said Leon asked me to go down.
For what? She answered that the driver had repaired the car and drove it back. He let me have a look.
I indeed owned a car given by him, which was crashed the other day. Then Leon had it repaired. If he gave milk away for free, who was I to say No?
I went out to see the white BMW, the damaged part of which had been fixed perfectly.
Leon stood beside the car, “The maintenance cost is 6, 800 dollars. Cash? Or deduct from your salary?”
“Why should I pay? Isn’t there an insurance company paying for it?”
“Crash after just going out of the door. Are you serious to claim from an insurance company? It’s yourself who crashed it. Do you mean to be bilking?” Leon said.
Not going to respond, I turned to go upstairs.
“Get in the car.” He said behind me.
I looked back at him. What did he want to do? I thought.
“Get in the car if you don’t want to lose money.” He repeated.
I had to open the rear door to get in, when he stopped me again, “Are you the boss to sit in the back seat? Do you intend to let your boss drive?”
“You know that I’m not a good driver.”
“So it’s necessary for you to practice if you want to improve. Get in the car!”
I had no choice but to sit in the driver’s seat and fasten the safety belt. Leon then sat in the co-pilot seat, leaning on the chair leisurely, “Drive.”
I pressed the start button, feeling nervous inexplicably.
“Relax, just a car. It’s yours and you can stop it anytime you like. What are you afraid of? Just remember to hit the brake. It’s okay for mild crash, but avoid killing someone.” He said slowly.
I took a deep breath and stepped on the gas. The car rushed forward. It turned out that I gave it a little much.
“Stupid woman. Here is a residential area not on an expressway, okay? You don’t need to make it 60 MPH!” Leon shouted.
I was focusing on the road ahead just now, not paying attention to the speed. It’s 60 MPH?
“Look all around attentively and listen carefully. Don’t stare at the front only. Try to relax. You would not be lost in the face of an emergency only if you know clearly what you are doing and what you should do. If it doesn’t work, you can flirt with me to release tension. ”
Then his hand stretched out suddenly on my lap and stroked gently.
“Take away your groping hand!”
“Are you blind? How can such a pretty hand be a groping hand?” He stroked more mightily.
“Take away! Or I will hit the wall!”
Leon quickly retreated, “Dare you crash again, go have it repaired yourself!”
After his spoof, my tension seemed to be released, and I was driving more easily.
When I was driving toward the suburb, Leon asked me to the urban district. I said, “It is terrible that so many cars in the downtown.”
He said, “No progress unless on the bustling streets.”
As a result, I drove with cold sweat all the way. Under his guidance, we finally arrived at the headquarters building of the Hua Group.
“See, there is a side door in your southwest. On the shareholders’ meeting day, you will be stopped by someone who don’t want me to attend if you enter from the main gate. Remember, enter through the side door and take the elevator directly to the large conference room on the 28th floor. This meeting is not for all the shareholders, but a small shareholders meeting, enough to be held in the conference room. Otherwise, the conference room cannot accommodate so many people. In that case, we will rent the super conference room in the International Conference and Exposition Center of Hai City. ”
“Hum.” I answered.
“Nala Yao, no matter how we get on, you are going to attend the meeting on my behalf this time. You must strive to maintain your image though there must be someone to embarrass you. Once you pass it, you will become more and more composed in the future. ”
“I know. I will try my best.” I replied.
“Good, let’s go and I will have a teacher to teach you some basic etiquette of the upper class.” Leon said.
“No, thanks. I specialized in etiquette at college. Don’t worry, I am not a rustic girl.”
“Well, even better.”
Driving back home, I was so nervous and felt tired out. But later I gradually got a feel for it. It seemed not so terrible.
The next noon, I finally finished reading all the materials and felt confident to some extent.
Though not everything, I had known about the vast majority of Hua Group.
Leon arranged a hair appointment for me to Yi Hall because he disliked my rustic hair. He said I need a more professional-van hair style at the shareholders meeting tomorrow.
I had a VIP card of Yi Hall. But this was just my second time to go there.
I drove to the parking lot to find that it was too crowded to back into the lot. Later, the security guard came up and finally helped me back the car.
In the hall, I swiped to the third floor to find a beautiful woman on the sofa changing her shoes. It turned out to be Ruoxin Chen.
One can’t avoid one’s enemy. I had to bite the bullet to go ahead and nod at her since it’s impossible to hide.
“Wait, let her carry the shoes over.” Ruoxin saw me and motioned to the waiter to stop.
I knew she was asking me to be her shoe-carrier.
“Hey everyone, let me introduce the hillbilly, Nala Yao. Leon chose her instead of me. What a donkey! Come on, let her carry my shoes. Then you can take a picture and post on social media to make it known that the hillbilly who robbed my man is only fit to carry my shoes! ”
Ruoxin looked so excited to see me for she finally seized a chance to humiliate me by asking the other women in the hall to watch her revenging on me.
