Being incompetent is his fate, and it is also her fate.

Pei Yan's tone was tough, but there was a hint of concession.

This was something Lin Man had never thought of. Pei Yan actually gave in?

How could a conceited and extremely patriarchal man like him actually say one day that as long as she stopped interfering in Ji Ze's affairs, he would obey her and agree to everything she said?

It is impossible to say that Lin Man's heart was not touched.

But can she really still believe in the gentle world created by this man in front of her whom she will never be able to see through?

Is it the nectar that makes people indulge, or the wine chaff that suffocates people?

Lin Man didn't dare to confirm, nor did she dare to touch it again.

But if she doesn't agree, will she and Pei Yan remain in this stalemate forever, with no one winning or losing?

She originally thought that Pei Yan was just in a momentary mood towards her, but until now, she began to waver. If she was unwilling to reconcile and Pei Yan was unwilling to let go, would they continue to repeat this cycle over and over again?

"Pei Yan, if I promise you, can you help me find Ji Ze?"

Pei Yan's expression became increasingly gloomy, and the tenderness he had at the beginning was no longer on his face.

Lin Man knew that he couldn't bear to hear this, but she was serious. "I don't have any romantic feelings for Ji Ze. He helped me through it. Don't you remember?"

"Help me find him. Whether he's dead or alive, whether it was an accident or a conspiracy, I just want an explanation. If he's alive, it depends on his wishes. I have to know if he's okay now. If he's dead, bring his body back so that his soul can return to his homeland. He has to have a place to rest..."

"I promise you, as long as you help me this time, I will live a good life with you from now on, and will never get involved in anything related to Ji Ze again."

"enough!"

Lin Man met Pei Yan's cold and indifferent gaze, and felt a chill in her heart.

Pei Yan's eyes paused, and the tight corners of his lips revealed his emotions at the moment.

Lin Man turned her head away stubbornly, not wanting to look him in the eye.

Sure enough, he was only saying nice things. She just made such a request, but he got so emotional. Did he have to force her?

Pei Yan lowered his eyes, his chest rising and falling, breathing sinisterly, "Get out."

Just go, does she want to stay here?

Lin Man didn't hesitate and walked away.

At this moment, no one asked why she left for work, and no one asked whether this counted as absenteeism. Everyone was tacitly silent and lowered their heads. No one dared to question her.

Pei Yan seemed to have disappeared, and Lin Man never saw him again.

A week later, the new employee training was over and Lin Man went to work as usual.

As soon as I opened the door, a familiar face appeared. The room was already full of people. When the female supervisor saw Lin Man, her face turned pale and blue.

She didn't look friendly, Lin Man saw it but ignored it, just opened the door and sat down in a random place.

The person sitting next to her was the girl she met on the day of reporting. Lin Man scanned the work badge in front of her: Ye Qingyu.

Seeing Lin Man, she seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she wanted to get close to her but didn't dare to. Lin Man felt a little headache when she was staring at her from the corner of her eye. "Just say whatever you want to say."

Ye Qingyu was startled, and quickly lowered her head. She quietly approached Lin Man and said, "I remember you. We met in the conference room that day. Don't you remember?" She lowered her voice and said, "I didn't expect you to be the boss's man."

"I thought you were going to fire Manager Zhang, but you only fired someone from the CEO's office."

Lin Man raised her head and looked at Ye Qingyu, "You misunderstood, I have nothing to do with him."

In fact, even Lin Man did not expect that Pei Yan would keep Manager Zhang and instead fire the round-faced girl from the president's office because this Manager Zhang is capable?

Ye Qingyu said in a low voice, "I don't mean anything else. I just announced the internship list. You work under Supervisor Zhang, and her niece has also been assigned. If you really have no relationship with the big boss, you have to be careful. I'm afraid she will have evil intentions and make things difficult for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a loud knock on the table. "What are you doing? Haven't you read the internship manual?"

No one dared to speak anymore. Lin Man was thinking, so she didn't hear Manager Zhang's angry voice.

“This is your workstation.”

As soon as Lin Man sat down, a woman threw the document in her hand at her and said without even looking up, "Translate it for me and print it out. I'll need it later."

Lin Man looked at the contents above, only took a glance, and then pushed the file back, "I don't understand this."

After that, she sat down and took care of her own affairs.

The woman was startled. It seemed that no newcomer had ever dared to talk to her like this before. She immediately became angry and threw the document to the ground. "What do you do for a living? You can't even translate this. Who recruited a poor student like you?"

"You've dumped your own work in the marketing department on others. Are you sure you're not the one eating the rice?"

Lin Man realized at a glance that this was not within the scope of her job. It was ridiculous for the marketing department to ask the secretariat to translate its own reports.

"You understand?" She seemed even angrier, "Were you kidding me just now?"

The noise gradually became louder, and Manager Zhang looked up. "What are you making a fuss about? Zhang Qing, did I ever tell you that this is the company? If you want to make a fuss, go home and do it."

Ye Qingyu's heart skipped a beat when she saw this, and she quickly stepped forward and said, "Sister Qing, Manman just graduated, don't bother with her. I'll help you translate it and print it out and put it on your desk before noon."

After saying that, Ye Qingyu pulled Lin Man away.

When they got to the tea room, she said softly, "She is the niece of Manager Zhang. She is the most senior person in our group. You'd better not mess with her. We are just ordinary people. We should endure this kind of thing. After the internship period is over, you can stay away from her."

Lin Man swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.

She watched Ye Qingyu busying around when she was called over by Manager Zhang. "It's just been delivered by the secretarial department. Please organize the materials and send them to President Pei's office."

Lin Man's eyelids twitched and she nodded, "Okay."

Lin Man sorted out the documents and was about to send them to the office, but she was stopped when she opened the door. Han Ming stood in front of her and said, "Just give the things to me."

Lin Man held the document in her arms without letting go, "Yes... Manager Zhang asked me to deliver it in person."

Han Ming said apologetically, "Boss Pei has instructed that no one from the secretary's office can enter the office from now on."

"..."

Lin Man looked at the transparent glass office chair, which was empty. "Hasn't he been coming back for a while?"

The only answer she got was Han Ming's silence.

Lin Man nodded, and suddenly she missed He Sheng. If He Sheng were here, he would probably be able to tell her…

The phone in her arms rang, Lin Man picked up the call, and Xiaojun's voice rang, "Manman, no! It's not the client's problem. Now in the firm, as long as the name Ji Ze is mentioned, no one will answer the call."

"Okay, I got it. Change your search direction and check the Italian flight."

"I've been checking. Is your work going well? Did you have any conflicts with Mr. Pei?"

Lin Man was silent. Pei Yan took the initiative to extend an olive branch to her. She also put forward conditions, but they failed to reach an agreement in the end. Is this a conflict?

While thinking, Lin Man just walked to the tea room, and heard a cry coming from the cubicle, "I won't talk to you for now."

As soon as she hung up the phone, Lin Man saw Ye Qingyu holding a pile of documents and wiping her tears in the corner, "What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Lin Man, she suddenly showed a bewildered look in her eyes. After a while, she said, "It's over, it's all over..."

"I messed up the report. I was afraid that it would affect my internship score, so I thought about secretly recalculating the numbers myself. But I didn't expect that my calculations were wrong from the beginning. Now my supervisor is in a meeting inside. She must have discovered the problem. She may have been criticized by the big boss. I am done..."

"I have a younger sister who is in college. I thought I could support her a little bit after I started working, but I didn't expect that I would lose my job so soon."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the office was pushed open! Manager Zhang had never been so angry before. Even the usually outspoken Zhang Qing was silent. "What is going on? Who made this report?"

Ye Qingyu’s face was pale, and he tried to stand up from the ground tremblingly, but fell down again.

Lin Man looked at her and sighed, thinking that although she had never accepted her help, she did take the initiative to help her, and squeezed her hand, "Don't be afraid, just say I did it."

"No... No, I can't implicate you."

"It's okay, it's not a burden."

Anyway, since she couldn't get into Pei Yan's office, there was no point for her to stay here.

When Manager Zhang saw Lin Man, his expression changed unpredictably. "Did you do this?"

"Ah."

"Do you have a problem with me? Or do you like watching me get scolded?"

"neither."

Manager Zhang felt as if his chest was choked for a moment. "You knew that President Pei was on a business trip, so you deliberately made trouble for me at this time, right?"

Pei Yan is on a business trip?

No wonder I haven't seen him these days.

Lin Man told the truth: "I didn't, I made the mistake, I accept any punishment."

Manager Zhang was in a dilemma. Zhang Qing whispered something in her ear. Then she said, "Okay, our department can't accommodate you anymore. From now on, you can go to the service center to press the elevator. Zhang Qing will take your place."

Ye Qingyu's expression changed, but Lin Man agreed.

Manager Zhang's attitude softened a bit. "Alright, let's all go. Longteng International will come to our company to inspect cooperation in a few days. Be smart."

During lunch break, Ye Qingyu looked guilty, "Manman, I really don't know how to face you. You took the blame for me and you were demoted because of me. Let me treat you to dinner today."

Lin Man originally wanted to say no, but seeing Ye Qingyu's uneasy expression, she nodded and asked, "What does the service center do?"

"The work of the service center is very complicated. Cleaning and front desk work belong to the service center, but the job of pressing the elevator is really good. Many people in our company want to do it because... only the top management can get this treatment. Ordinary employees have to squeeze into one elevator with more than ten people. How can they get this treatment?"

"But you are not an ordinary employee. You will be working in the secretarial department. You will be able to get along with President Pei day and night. Do you still need to contact the top management? That is already the highest level of Pei's company."

She looked guilty, "You go find a seat first. If there's no seat soon, I'll go get some food. You must let me treat you to this meal."

"it is good."

Ye Qingyu squeezed into the crowd. Lin Man looked at her and shuddered when she thought of the words about being with Pei Yan day and night.

As soon as she sat down, she closed her eyes. The next second, her arm was pulled up forcefully. "Manman! Oh my God, where are you sitting? Don't you know that's Manager Zhang's seat? You're really scaring me to death."

Lin Man opened his eyes dazedly, "What seat? I saw that all the other seats were full, only that seat was empty."

Ye Qingyu nodded at her, "I really admire you. If I don't pay attention, you will get into trouble! There are so many people in the cafeteria, and the seats are so scarce. You found such a big table. Don't you think it's strange? And you dare to sit down?"

Ye Qingyu pulled her aside and said, "Hello, can we share the table?"

The man raised his head. Ye Qingyu was stunned for a moment. His eyes were fixed on Lin Man. Then his handsome face smiled. "Please sit down."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Thank you."

She pulled Lin Man to sit down, and seeing that Lin Man had been looking at her phone, she asked, "What's wrong, Man Man, is there anything you need?"

"Nothing." Lin Man shook her head, put down her phone and concentrated on eating, but suddenly thought of something and turned to ask Ye Qingyu, "By the way, do you know where to see Pei Yan's schedule?"

After she finished speaking, not only Ye Qingyu was stunned for a moment, but even the man opposite was stunned for a moment, but only for a moment, and then he lowered his head to concentrate on eating.

Ye Qingyu looked at Lin Man with confusion. Could it be that she really had misunderstood what happened in the meeting room?

"Oh my god! We are just ordinary employees. We are not allowed to go to the floor where President Pei's office is located. And you want to get his schedule? It is not public! It must be kept strictly confidential."

In fact, Ye Qingyu wanted to say, if you really want to know, you can give President Pei a call, but when the words came to her lips, she felt that she might have really misunderstood.

How could a CEO's wife be demoted by a supervisor...

Lin Man nodded, and after dinner, she went to the elevator. This was the first time Lin Man wore a professional suit, and she felt... a little tight on her chest.

When the elevator door opened, Lin Man raised her head and saw that it was the person she had met at the cafeteria at noon. "Which floor are you going to?"

"Eleventh floor, trouble."

"Ok."

Lin Man reached out and pressed the button for the eleventh floor. What a good job!

One million a month, you can press any button in the elevator every day, and you don’t have to clean. You are alone in a space without complicated interpersonal relationships.

It's much less stressful than filming a movie.

The numbers in the elevator slowly rose, and the space became completely quiet.

The man looked at her, also confused. Did she not know or was she really not interested?

Just then, there was a "bang!"

The elevator suddenly stopped at the eleventh floor. No matter how hard Lin Man pressed the button, the elevator door would not open. Lin Man did not panic, she pressed the emergency call button.

But even this bell is no longer ringing!

Just then, a hand stopped her from behind.
