“Everyone looks weirdly absent-minded,” Joe Li glanced at Robin Zhou. He found that Robin fixated on his desk after sitting. It’s like all others were invisible to him.
“Absent-minded?” Robin raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, “So what?”
“So, don’t you want to know why they act so?” Joe continued.
“Not really,” Robin shook his head.
“All right.”
Then Joe announced, “Dude, do you hear that our company will have a new president today.”
“Yes,” Robin nodded faintly. In his mind, that had nothing to do with him. The only reason he’s here was for Jonny Huang. He perhaps would return to City C after settling all things.
“The new president is a woman.”
“A woman?” Robin raised his head curiously. It occurred to him that Rachel Qin told him last night that June Brown was about to go to Rachel’s company as president. Is “Rachel’s company” the KM Group? Robin thought.
Joe was a bit happy to see Robin’s response. He used to think Robin had no interest in girls at all. Now it turned out that Robin pretended to be that. He’s interested in the new female president.
“Do you know who the chairman of KM Group is?” Robin asked hurriedly. If he knew the chairman, he would figure out whether KM Group belonged to Rachel.
Joe glanced at Robin in doubt. Why would he ask that?
“Johan Liu. What are you asking for?”
Robin frowned. It seemed that he thought too much.
Then he intended to call Rachel for the answer. At this moment, the whole floor became noisy.
“It’s our new president!” someone exclaimed.
Many employees got up and looked at the direction. So did Robin. He was stunned at the figure. Although the woman left quickly, he recognized it’s his June.
Robin had mixed feelings. Was that something romantic between them or just a coincidence?
They had separated for two days, but now they reunited, in a pretty embarrassing manner.
He became a worker at the bottom-line, while June was a powerful president.
A wry smile appeared at the corner of Robin’s mouth.
“Robin. Do you see the new president? She looks stunning,” Joe was a little excited. After all, a stunning female president made him more proud than an old man.
“Yeah. She’s pretty,” Robin took a deep breath and got his calmness again.
“What about us looking at her again?” Joe got very curious about the president’s appearance after Robin’s comments.
“Sure,” after hesitating for a while, Robin nodded. He missed June so much.
…
June headed for the meeting room on the top floor.
Today was her first day in the office. She needed to meet all the executives of the company.
…
The elevator was filled with people. Joe gave up to see the beautiful boss, and said with a bitter smile, “Um. It seems that we’re not alone. So many people expect to see the president.”
Robin nodded lightly without saying anything. He kind of predicted that. Everyone was curious about their new beautiful boss.
Joe was about to return to their office. There were still many opportunities in the future.
“I’ll go,” Robin informed firmly, “Let’s turn to the stairs.”
“Huh? Stairs? But the conference room is on the 36th floor! That’ll kill me,” Joe screamed, his eyes widened.
He couldn’t understand Robin’s crazy proposal. They’re just strangers. Why would he be so interested?
When Joe was still thinking about the reason, Robin strode up the stairs. Joe had to follow him.
Robin was so strong that it only took him less than two minutes to reach the 36th floor.
But at the same time, Joe was just on the eighteenth floor.
Robin located the meeting room the moment he got to the top floor.
But the door was closed, only thunderous applause coming out from time to time.
Outside the door were many employees like Robin. No one dared to open the door.
After all, they were not the top executives. If they walked into the room, they would get fired the next day.
So, later many left sighing.
Robin wore a wry smile. Of course, he could push open the door. But he didn’t know how to face June.
He was an employee of KM Group and also her ex-husband.
Robin knew he could not do so. It’s not a proper time to meet June.
After taking a deep breath, he was about to leave.
However, at this time, Joe came up out of breath.
“God! Are you a Superman? You’re so, so fast?” Joe gasped hard.
Robin smiled and didn’t say anything. Joe was just an ordinary urban white-collar worker. He didn’t talk too much, but he’s a nice guy.
“Have you seen her?” Joe continued panting.
“No,” Robin shook his head.
“No?” Joe glanced at Robin suspiciously. He picked up on that the moment he saw the closed door.
