A Pursuit of Beloved Wife

Proofread by Yu Bing

Yuexi rolls her eyes at her, “Stop talking when your mouth is full. You can come here if you want to eat. No one will stop you. Don’t even try to take Sister Liu away.” Chen Ying’s mouth full, she is not in a position to talk. Therefore, she just rolls her eyes at Yuexi.

After the meal, Chen Ying rubs her bulging belly then lies down on the sofa, making Yuexi speechless for a while, “Look at you! The foods are far more than enough. Why in such a hurry?” Chen Ying nods and looks sad as if wronged, “I just can’t help it. Sister Liu is really a good cook. It’s so hard to eat slowly.”

Yuexi doesn’t want to say anything more to her and she just lets her lie down on the sofa. When she is unpacking the things that she has bought today, she suddenly notices a small bag. Yuexi couldn’t help but wonder what is inside. She doesn’t remember buying that. “Chen Ying, what is this? Did you buy this?” As she says, she takes out the items from the bag. She is stunned at what she sees.

It is a set of purple lace underwear! Chen Ying smirks as she says to Yuexi, “I especially picked this for you. Put it on and let me admire it.” Yuexi is blushed, and she throws the underwear on her face, “That’s enough! Can’t you be serious?” Chen Ying feels the fabric of the underwear with her hand and says causally, ” I’m very serious. You wear underwear, don’t you? Wow! Little Yueyue, I never know that you’re so ….!”

“I…” Yuexi wants to talk back, then suddenly she remembers something. Then she looks up, she notices that Ouyang Mu is looking at them curiously. Now her face is even more red. With her red face, she quickly grabs the underwear from Chen Ying and puts it back into the bag. Her tongue is knotted, “Sorry, we’re used to making fun of each other this way.”

With her head tilted to one side, Chen Ying looks at Ouyang Mu, “Hey, I mean, Lawyer Ouyang, you have seen Little Yueyue’s lace underwear. Now you have to be responsible for her.” Yuexi feels very embarrassed. She grits her teeth bitterly, “Chen! Ying! Don’t you go home? Why are you still here!”

“Oh, are you this desperate to see me leave then you two can be alone together?” Chen Ying raises her eyebrows, “I am not going. I won’t hand you over to him so easily.” Yuexi’s head spins. At this moment, Ouyang Mu stands up and says, “I guess I have overstayed my welcome. It’s late and I should leave now.”

Yuexi hurriedly stands up to see him off, “Well, okay, watch your steps and drive safe.” After saying these words, she turns her head to glare at Chen Ying. Chen Ying feels resentful but eventually shuts up. When Ouyang Mu is gone, Yuexi rushes back and pinches Chen Ying. The two of them fight each other until very late that night. If it weren’t for Yuexi ‘s interview tomorrow, the fight would have gone on.

The next morning, Yuexi gets up early, and Chen Ying gets up early too. Chen Ying wants to dress Yuexi up again. But this time, Yuexi says no decisively. She puts on some simple makeup which makes her look independent, capable and mature. Chen Ying gives her a lift to the company where she is going to have an interview today, Kang Yuan Company. What a small world! Yuexi never imagines one day she will apply for a job in this company, a tough competitor with the company she used to work for.

By the time she arrives, there are already several interviewees waiting outside. They all look well-prepared and confident. The interview soon begins. Yuexi watches them walk into the interview room one by one and walk out again. And soon it’s her turn. Yuexi stands up and makes her way to the door. She straightens her clothes a little, then takes a deep breath and gently knocks on the door and walks in.

In the room behind the table sit two middle-aged men and five or six steps in front of the table there is a chair. Yuexi walks over and greets them, then hands over her resume to the two interviewers, and then takes her seat in the chair. Both interviewers read through Yuexi’s resume carefully, then exchange a glance with each other. One of the men wearing a pair of glasses asks questions first.

“Ms. Bai Yuexi, I’m Kang Yuan’s planning manager. We’ve all gone over your resume, it’s very good in terms of your education, work experience, etc. Here, I still have a few more questions I’d like to ask you.” Yuexi looks at him calmly and nods, “Yes, please ask.”

The moment when she walks out of the building, Yuexi exhales a long breath. She looks up at the turquoise-blue sky, and finally feels at ease. She looks back at the company of Kang Yuan. She is fully prepared before coming to the interview, she knew that they would ask her questions about Hong Sheng Company during the interview.

After all, the two companies are rivalries. Yuexi is a high-rank manager and she can’t have quit her previous job for no reason. Anyone who knows her background will be suspicious. That’s natural. Yuexi believes that she has a clear conscience, and she knows Kang Yuan is a good company. But she is still a little bit nervous when asked about these questions concerning the reasons why she quit her previous job during the interview. Fortunately, she has figured out how to answer them. In this way, she is sure the interviewers are satisfied with her answers and she can secure her job here. That is a very important first step.

As soon as she leaves the building, Yuexi feels the urge to find someone to share the good news. The first person that pops up in her mind is Chen Ying. But the phone call is not answered for a long time. Looking at the phone, Yuexi, who was, a minute ago, happy, suddenly becomes frustrated. Just as she is about to put the phone away, she hears the phone ringing. She takes it out and finds it’s Chen Ying. She can’t help but smile again.

Yuexi tells her the good news. However, all she gets in return is Chen Ying’s mockery. In her opinion, securing such a job is a piece of cake for Yuexi. At the same time, she says that it’s a waste of her ability by accepting this offer. Yuexi laughs for a while and asks her to come over to celebrate in the evening. Chen Ying happily accepts the invitation.

Early the next morning, Yuexi comes to Kang Yuan Company and officially begins her first day of work. The man with glasses who interviewed her the other day, the planning manager, is her superior, Yang Mingzhi. Judging by his look, he seems to be very capable. He left Yuexi some pretty good impressions during the interview that day.

There are five teams in the entire planning department, three of which are established long ago, and the other two are newly established to expand its business scope. Yuexi is the leader of one of the new teams. She has four team members, and three of them are fresh from university, in other words, green hands without much prior experience. Two of them are males, Wu Hao and Jiang Cheng, and one female Sun Yawen.

The last one is very experienced, Zhong Yuan. He has been working in Kang Yuan for more than three years. According to Yuexi’s limited experience, he is very sophisticated, to be more exact, cunning. Although Yuexi is full of enthusiasm, she couldn’t help but sigh in silence after looking at these team members. She knows that it will be very difficult to carry out her plan with such a team.

Old employees will take advantage of the newcomers. It is a shared secret. “Sun Yawen, help me pour a cup of coffee.” “Jiang Cheng, redo this report.” “Wu Hao, pick up my mail for me when you’re on your way to the dining hall later.”Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Apparently she is ignored by this Zhong Yuan. He gives orders in the way that an outsider will think he is in charge.” Zhong Yuan, redo this report.” Yuexi looks at Zhong Yuan and issues her first order since she becomes the team leader.

Zhong Yuan takes a quick glance at her, then takes a look at the report, and finally shouts, “Jiang Cheng…” Yuexi doesn’t get angry, instead she looks at Zhong Yuan calmly, “I’m asking you to do it. Jiang Cheng, come over here. I have another task assigned to you.” Jiang Cheng feels stunned and takes a look at Zhong Yuan, then runs to Yuexi. Zhong Yuan doesn’t look so nice. He squeezes the report in his hand without saying anything.
