I looked at Wenbei Su, confused.
“I was informed this morning and I was confused too. Though I’m here having tea to consider about it, I don’t have any clue. But since it’s dad’s decision, he naturally has his own reasons, so I should just accept it,” Wenbei said.
“But I can’t accept it! Obviously, it was Xiaodong who did something wrong and slandered us. The chairman promised to punish him and kick him out of the country, but now. instead, he took your place in the group and asked me to be his assistant. What the hell is going on?”
Wenbei sighed, “Nala, though you can’t accept this, you have to. I trust dad’s judgment and he must have his own reasons.”
“And the chairman didn’t explain to you?”
He smiled, “He made the decision and there’s no need to explain it to me.”
I couldn’t agree with him. of course, he should obey his father and respect him, but he shouldn’t be always like that. If Jiye misjudged, he should point it out. That’s the real ‘respect’.
“But this time, it was Xiaodong’ s fault and the chairman’s decision now is wrong and unfair. Doesn’t he need to explain something?” I said excitedly.
“Dad must have his own difficulties for not explaining. If I force him, won’t it be even harder for him? Never mind. It’s not a big deal.”
“Okay, since that’s the case, then I’ll be by your side. I can’t be an assistant for Xiaodong and I’d rather resign and go back to Hai City with you.”
Wenbei shook his head, “You’re just being impulsive. Think about it, Big Brother was actually arrogant yesterday. Why was he so arrogant and why was he able to force dad to change his mind? Don’t you want to know?”
I said of course I wanted to know, but no one told me, so how was I supposed to know?
“Then you need to investigate it. Only by being an assistant, are you able to know more. Then we can think about more ways to deal with him. If you leave like this, then how can I know what happens in the group?”
“So, you want to stay and be his assistant?”
“Of course. And this is also dad’s decision and I think he must have his reasons.” Wenbei said.
“But I will feel uncomfortable. You know, Xiaodong hates me. If I stay as his assistant, he will definitely try to look trouble for me. I still don’t know how much I have to suffer from him.”
Wenbei smiled, “So you’re worried about being bullied. That’s not my Nala. You have always been strong, so why do you fear this time?”
“Not fear, but feel wronged! You can accept it, but I can’t!”
“Nala, if you think carefully about yesterday, this result is actually predictable.”
His calmness also made me slowly calm down.
“Yesterday, I also thought Xiaodong was arrogant, which I was surprised. Why did he dare to argue with the chairman like that? Wenbei, did he coerce the chairman with some dirty means to make him make such a decision?”
He didn’t say anything, but took a sip of tea. He agreed with me, but he just didn’t want to say it.
That’s why he wanted me to stay and work as an assistant. After figuring things, he could think of a way to deal with it.
Since that’s the case, I could only cooperate with him. After all, when I was in trouble, he was the one who helped me out.
“Alright, Wenbei. I’ll listen to you, I’ll just go back to work first.”
“I’m sorry for getting you in this…”
Before he could finish his words, he heard someone outside calling his name, “Wenbei, I’ve come to see you.”
It was Xiaodong.
When he saw me, he was immediately sullen, “Miss Yao, it’s now working time and how can you leave your post? If you want to go anywhere in the future, you have to get my permission! Being my assistant is not like being Wenbei’ s, who don’t know business is business. Although you’ re daddy’s goddaughter, but you’re just one of the assistants to me. Remember, you have no privileges.”
I sneered, “Mr. Su, put on airs? I haven’t even agreed to be your assistant…”
Before I finished my words, I had to shut up when Wenbei gave me a look.
“Wenbei, look at the person you’ve brought out. How dare she talk to her boss like that? Didn’t you teach her to how to respect her boss?” Xiaodong said deliberately.
Wenbei smiled, “She has always been straightforward, which is a merit. There is nothing wrong with it. If she makes any mistake, tell her. she will improve herself.”
“Don’t worry about that, I will. Wenbei, this time you’re going to the branch, a different city. Take care of yourself. Don’t be in a hurry to leave today. I and a bunch of executives are going to host a banquet to send you off. Please do come.”
Xiaodong was really annoying. Not only did he kick his brother out, but also made a group of executives send him off, which was obviously to show off his victory. On the one hand, he put pressure on the executives to support him. On the other hand, he wanted to embarrass his brother in public.
“Fine, it’s really kind of you. Of course, I’ll go.” Wenbei agreed in a sec.
“Okay, six o’clock. I’ll have Miss Yao inform you of the location then. I have a lot of things to do, so I’ll be leaving first. Miss Yao, let’s get back to work.” Xiaodong looked at me.
I was going to say no, but Wenbei looked at me again, so I had to hold back. I followed Xiaodong to leave.
As soon as we left Wenbei’ s villa, Xiaodong immediately changed his attitude, “Nala, I warned you not to depend on the wrong person, but you don’t believe me. Now do you see it clearly? How did he lose?”
“I was wrong, Mr. Su. I’m glad to work with you in the future.” I said in a low voice.
He never thought that I changed my attitude so quickly, so he turned around and looked at me surprisingly, “What did you say?”
I bowed respectfully, “Glad to be your assistant. If there’s anything I’ve done wrong, please tell me, Mr. Su.”
“Your attitude changed quite quickly. Did Wenbei teach you this? You pretend to be nice to me and make traps secretly?” He looked at me suspiciously.
“Is Mr. Su that afraid of me? How about changed a new assistant? There are a lot of talents in the group anyway. You can find what you want.” I said indifferently.
“I’m afraid of you? Although I think you are quite competent, you are just like a fly. I’m the king of the group and it’s me that govern everything.” Xiaodong said.
Then we were at his car, but he was standing still, waiting for me to open the door for him.
I bent down to open the door for him and he told me to drive.
Without thinking, I got into it and started the engine.
After just a few hundred miles, I pretended to lose control and crashed his car into the roadside flower bed.
“Nala, you did this on purpose, didn’t you? The road is so wide and you can hit the flower bed?” He was furious.
I pretended to be sorry, “I’m sorry, Mr. Su. I’ve never been to driving school at all and my license was bought, so my skills have always sucked. In the past, when I worked as an assistant to Wenbei, he was the one who drove. Besides, I’m an assistant, not a driver.”
“Bought a driver’s license? Then why didn’t you tell me?” He yelled at me.
“You didn’t ask me either, Mr. Su.” I said aggrievedly.
