Chapter 285: 280 First Update

"Young man, it’s already off-work hours; how come your girlfriend still hasn’t come down?"

"Women, you know, tend to dawdle, and besides, she’s not my girlfriend. I’m not that lucky."

"Look at you, talking like that. You’re a good-looking guy, somewhat like I used to be. Why don’t you have a little confidence? You’ve been waiting here for an hour or two; if she’s not your girlfriend, then what is she?"

The uncle in the security guard uniform suddenly had a realization and slapped his forehead, "I get it now, you’re still in pursuit?"

Jiang Chen, who had been chatting idly with the man for a while, shook his head with a smile, without a word.

The security uncle, part of the property management and in charge of this parking area in front of the building, reached into his chest pocket and took out a pack of Liqun cigarettes, offering one to Jiang Chen.

"Thanks, but I don’t smoke."

"Not smoking is a good thing."

The security uncle took back the cigarette pack and put it in his pocket again.

"Men should be bold. The people who work in this building are all elites, so if you encounter someone outstanding, you have to go all out in pursuit. Don’t worry about losing face. Back in my day... Heck, it was just because I was too self-conscious. If I had been more shameless, maybe I wouldn’t be just a humble assistant here. These days, to land an excellent partner, you have to fight for it. If you don’t make an effort, someone else might just sweep them off their feet."

Jiang Chen did not look down on the man because of his uniform and laughed, "Uncle, it’s really not what you think."

"Could it be that she’s very unappealing to the eye?"

This uncle was quite trendy, as could be told from his tone; he had a youthful mindset, not like some security guards who always sulk as if everyone owed them money, or those who walked like zombies.

Jiang Chen hesitated, "That’s not it, she’s actually quite pretty."

A certain woman, who deliberately walked lightly, unnoticed, had a corner of her mouth curled up, even less eager to make her presence known.

"Well then, there you have it! She’s pretty and has such a good job. What are you hesitating for? Tell me her name, and I’ll keep an eye out for you in the future. If I bump into a rival in love or something, I’ll secretly tip you off..."

The security uncle was warm-hearted, maybe because he felt an instant connection with Jiang Chen.

"Uncle, when it comes to finding a partner, isn’t personality the key? Being pretty and..."

"Is my personality that bad?"

A somber voice rang out, and at the same time, it felt as if a biting cold wind had blown through.

Jiang Chen’s words were cut off.

The two men, who had been enjoying their conversation and passing the time, turned around in unison.

Miss Shi was standing behind them, her mood having already gone from sunny to overcast.

"Miss Shi!"

The security uncle’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately straightened his back.

There were thousands of employees in the Golden Sea Building; of course, he couldn’t possibly recognize each one, but if he couldn’t identify a few key figures, there was no point in him doing the job.

The building had an underground parking lot, but for convenience, there was still a parking area in front of the building.

Due to limited space, it was generally only executives who were entitled to park in front of the building. It wasn’t a rule, but rather an unspoken rule of the workplace.

The group’s big boss had a designated parking spot, and no one ever dared to take it.

But once, a car audaciously took up the chairman’s spot, which scared him witless. He immediately called to order the person to move, only to find out it was a huge misunderstanding.

The owner turned out to be the newly appointed chairman’s daughter.

Since then, the chairman’s parking spot had been reluctantly moved.

So, for this "Princess," the security uncle naturally had a profound impression.

Shi Qianxi didn’t pay any attention to him, staring straight at Jiang Chen.

Seeing this, the security uncle’s heart rate increased, and sweat broke on his forehead.

Could it be...

Perchance...

The young man he had been bragging with half the day was waiting for...

"Aren’t you going to speak? Weren’t you just having a cheerful conversation? What’s wrong with my personality?"

Jiang Chen glanced at the flat shoes beneath her feet, "Eavesdropping on others is not very polite."

Shi Qianxi sneered coldly.

"So you’re saying that speaking ill of someone behind their back is justified?"

The security uncle’s heart thumped wildly, sweat rolling down his temples; he hardly dared to breathe too loudly, wishing he could learn from the Invisible Man and disappear on the spot.

"And you, the company hired you to chat with someone, did they?"

Shi Qianxi asserted her dominance, her cold eyes shifting towards the security uncle: "Starting tomorrow, you won’t need to come to work."

"Shi Qianxi, if you’re angry, direct it at me. It has nothing to do with others."

"Didn’t you say I have a bad temper? You’re right, my temper is bad. I am going to fire him."

Miss Shi was like an irritated child at that moment.

Jiang Chen, helpless, couldn’t help taking a few steps forward, approaching this witch and lowering his voice, "Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you? Someone keeps me company with a chat, and you want to take away their livelihood; do you have no humanity?"

"Have you ever seen a capitalist with humanity?"

Miss Shi, giving up all pretense, or perhaps retaliating, immediately left Jiang Chen speechless.

One cannot deny that her verbal skills have improved considerably.

The security uncle felt an inexplicable sadness.

While the job may not seem very glamorous, it was easy, and the salary was quite generous. If he truly got fired, finding an equivalent job would be as hard as reaching the heavens.

In reality, chatting with someone when there was nothing else to do wasn’t that serious of an issue, but what he couldn’t have possibly anticipated was that the young man he was waiting for was none other than the chairman’s daughter.

What rotten luck.

Having seen how she monopolized the chairman’s parking spot, the security uncle felt his heart turn to ashes, believing his job was most likely gone for good.

"I apologize to you; will that do?"

Jiang Chen was indeed capable of bending and stretching; to avoid implicating the innocent, he swiftly lowered his stance.

After all, if this witch remained stubborn, he truly had no options left.

Miss Shi glared at him, then turned her gaze aside, ignoring him completely, putting on quite an act.

Jiang Chen found it amusing and continued in a low voice, "Can’t you be a little less petty?"

"I want to!"

Shi Qianxi acted as though no one else was present.

"Normally, not a single message from you, leaving me on the side without a word. And now, the one rare time you show up, you badmouth me in front of my company’s people, Jiang Chen, you’re a jerk!"

Miss Shi grew more and more infuriated, grabbing her delicate purse and hurling it at Jiang Chen, the epitome of an aggrieved woman.

Jiang Chen hurriedly caught it.

The security uncle watched, frightened, his eyes widening involuntarily.

This is it, this is it.

Is this something he should be seeing?

Losing his job is the least of it.

After seeing all this, wouldn’t Miss Shi physically eliminate him?

Luckily, Shi Qianxi had no time to pay him any mind at the moment, storming off towards her car without even wanting her purse back.

Jiang Chen gave the security uncle an awkward and apologetic smile, then hurriedly followed Shi Qianxi.

As he watched the two of them get into a car, the security uncle stood still as if petrified, beside himself.
