Mei Shu was taken aback for a moment. Under Lu Si’s hopeful gaze, she held his hand back, leaned closer, and gently pecked his cheek. “1 understand.”

Lu Si’s face suddenly flushed red. “Shu’er…”

He was moved and was about to pull her into his arms to deepen the kiss.

But Mei Shu, like a slippery loach, suddenly opened the car door, slipped inside, giving him no time to react.

It wasn’t until the driver started the car that she opened the window, waved at the still dazed man, and smiled, “Go check on your grandfather. Although 1 don’t like him that much, 1 don’t want anything to happen to him because of me.”

As the car gradually moved away, until Lu Si’s figure was no longer visible, Mei Shu closed the window and called Tang Mei to arrange upcoming work matters.

In the afternoon, at the entrance of the Mei Group Building.

A girl dressed very plainly hesitated on the steps.

The receptionist at the front desk noticed her and came out from behind the desk, politely asking, “Miss, may 1 help you with something?”

The girl hesitated for a while before saying, “I want to see Mei Shu.”

“Oh! You want to see Miss Mei. Do you have an appointment?” The receptionist glanced her up and down, noticing that she wasn’t wearing any designer brands or expensive jewelry. Her clothes and shoes were simple. She felt a bit surprised.

“No, I don’t. 1 tried calling her, but she didn’t answer,” the girl’s voice became smaller and smaller, to the point where the receptionist had to lean in closer to hear her clearly.

The receptionist smiled politely, expressing regret, “I’m sorry, but Miss Mei is very busy right now and may not have time to see you. However, I can contact her secretary to see if Mei Shu can spare some time.”

“Okay, thank you,” the girl bowed deeply to her, feeling nervous.

The receptionist estimated that she was quite young, maybe a schoolmate of Miss Mei.

However, their relationship didn’t seem close, otherwise why would Miss Mei not even answer her calls?

Although she thought so, the receptionist still invited the girl into the meeting room and brought her a cup of hot tea. “May 1 ask your name so 1 can inform Miss Mei?”

“Wen Miao,” the girl’s voice was as soft as a mosquito’s buzz.

She had never seen such a big setup before.

She had only heard that Mei Shu worked at her own company, but she never expected it to be such a big company!

Suddenly, she felt like a country bumpkin entering the city for the first time, not knowing where to put her hands and feet.

The receptionist smiled reassuringly, “Alright, Miss Wen Miao, please wait a moment. I’ll contact her for you.”

As she left the meeting room, she was about to return to the front desk to make the call when she unexpectedly bumped into the HR Manager, Feng Kai.

She immediately straightened up and respectfully stepped aside, allowing him to pass.

Feng Kai’s eyes scanned her and then settled on her, “Xiao Han, where were you just now?”

Han Xi quickly replied, “There’s a young girl who wants to see Miss Mei. 1 asked her to wait in the meeting room.”

“A young girl?” Feng Kai’s eyes lit up. He glanced through the window into the meeting room and saw a girl who looked nervous and average.

“How could someone like her have anything to do with Miss Mei?” Feng Kai sneered, “Don’t bring just anyone into the company in the future! Get her out of here!”

“Mr. Feng, is that appropriate? What if she really knows Miss Mei?” Han Xi felt it wasn’t appropriate. At the very least, they should ask for Secretary Tang’s opinion before making a decision. Otherwise, if Miss Mei were to blame them later, she would be the first to suffer!

Feng Kai, however, gestured inside nonchalantly, criticizing Wen Miao’s appearance, “Look at the clothes she’s wearing, aren’t they just cheap stuff you can get for a few bucks at a street stall? And those shoes on her feet, tsk tsk, for a young lady, she can’t even bother to clean her shoes properly, they’re covered in mud! And look at that watch on her wrist, it’s probably not worth more than a hundred bucks at most. Can you believe someone like her knows President Mei?”

Upon hearing this, Han Xi stammered, “We can’t really chase her away, right? I still have to tell Secretary Tang.”

Feng Kai’s expression darkened. “What? My words don’t work anymore? Who does Tang Mei think she is? How can an intern who just graduated become the CEO’s assistant?! Only Mei Shu, that inexperienced girl, would be able to use her without worry! I’m Mei Shu’s elder. She has to respectfully call me uncle when he sees me! How dare you disobey me?”

Han Xi still felt it wasn’t right, but she couldn’t afford to offend Feng Kai. She could only say with a forced smile, “I’ll follow your instructions. But if Miss Mei gets angry later, you have to take care of me!”

“Don’t worry, a beauty like you, I won’t let you leave the company! I’m in charge of personnel movements in the company.. If any employee needs to be dismissed, it’s me who decides!” Feng Kai proudly gestured towards the meeting room and said, “Get her out! I don’t believe Mei Shu will turn against me over such a small matter!”
