Chapter 151: Chapter 151 Teaching a Lesson to the Toad (1)

Investment Attraction Department

As before, Gu Nuan sat at her own desk, which seemed to be disliked by others.

Since Fang Yongxing’s wife had rushed back from their hometown, Tang Qingzhong was able to return to the company to work. Seeing the stool on which Gu Nuan was sitting, he made a call to the logistics department, and in no time, they found Gu Nuan a decent office chair.

Everyone could clearly see that Gu Nuan had undoubtedly integrated into Fang Yongxing’s group and was no longer battling alone.

Xu Zhilin always found himself glancing over at Gu Nuan unintentionally, well aware of the anxiety in his heart.

Although it seemed that he had an advantage over Gu Nuan when he first started, as time went by, he felt like he was making smooth progress in the seemingly stable Group One. In reality, he could only pace anxiously like an ant on a hot pan.

Why?

Looking at Gu Nuan, she had made a cup of chrysanthemum tea for Chen Jiaming. Now, she was said to have been called by the company’s senior executives for a meeting, certainly seeing more of the company’s leaders.

All of this was because Gu Nuan was in the unpredictable Group Three, which seemed to be filled with bombs everywhere.

Danger sometimes is simultaneously an opportunity.

Xu Zhilin suddenly thought, if he had been placed in Group Three instead of Group One, wouldn’t he have become the newcomer who gets to meet Chen Jiaming and other company executives?

He couldn’t help but slam the folder in his hand onto the desk in annoyance.

After all, how many newcomers in the company might not have the chance to interact closely with the board executives for a whole year? Gu Nuan, in just two or three short days, had already met with so many people—

His agitation undoubtedly disturbed Qiu Wenduo, who was working opposite him.

Qiu Wenduo then yelled at him, "The team leader wants a coffee, didn’t you hear?"

While others were making tea for the director, he was here making coffee for a mere team leader!

Xu Zhilin held back, murmured in a low voice, "Yes—" and then turned around to head for the pantry.

On his way, he continued to wonder how Gu Nuan’s good fortune had come about.

As he was about to pour sugar into the coffee, he suddenly remembered that the team leader Jiang probably had high blood sugar, so Xu Zhilin immediately reduced the sugar by half.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Wenduo had already been standing at the doorway, watching his actions like a hawk, and said, "You’re quite good at sucking up, knowing our team leader has high blood sugar."

Xu Zhilin cleared his throat, "Just a bit of knowledge, I heard it from someone by chance."

"You must feel uncomfortable inside, right?" Qiu Wenduo’s lips curled slightly as if he found it amusing to observe his expressions. "I can understand your thoughts. I’ve been in the company for many years, almost worn down to having no temper. If I were you and saw a peer shoot up so quickly, I would be anxious to death. After all, opportunities are only given to a select few. If she has snatched them away, then you’re out of luck."

"Senior—" Xu Zhilin glanced at him sideways and scoffed, "If all you can do is talk cynically, then you’ll never be able to climb up in your life."

Qiu Wenduo, hearing his sarcastic words, didn’t get angry. He leaned on the door frame and said, "You’re not wrong. You’re a talented graduate from B University, unlike an old office hand like me who no longer has many opportunities. To get ahead, you can’t just sit and watch others or you’ll never make something of yourself."

"Senior, by saying that, do you mean there’s a way?" Xu Zhilin calmly stirred the sugar in the coffee cup.

Qiu Wenduo moved closer to him and suddenly whispered in his ear, "I’ll draw them away later. You go check her computer and get the document she’s working on."
