Chapter 135 - 0135: I Will Compete with You for a Man

Chapter 135: Chapter 0135: I Will Compete with You for a Man

Long Fei sensed the thick aroma of jealousy in the air, turned his head to look around, and let out an awkward smile.

Some of the male colleagues had even rolled up their sleeves.

I mean, come on, it’s the middle of summer and you’re wearing short sleeves—who rolls up their sleeves!

Long Fei muttered to himself, then pleaded with Lin Yingying nervously, "Sis, could you possibly change your seat?"

"Get lost, who’s your sis!"

Lin Yingying gave him a glare, took a small bite of her rice with her chopsticks, and chided, "Do you own this cafeteria? Can’t I sit here and eat?"

Long Fei nodded and said, "Of course you can, then I will find another place!"

He picked up his tray, ready to slip away.

Lin Yingying called out, "Wait a minute."

Long Fei sat down and said with a sense of grievance, "What else is there?"

Lin Yingying replied, "If you leave, it’s going to be awkward for me to eat alone."

"Alright, then!"

Long Fei took a deep breath and curiously asked, "Don’t you usually eat upstairs?"

Lin Yingying said, "Don’t even mention it, my secretary took a leave and hasn’t come back yet, so I have to fend for myself."

"That so!"

Long Fei laughed a bit, then said sympathetically, "Then you really are pitiful, no secretary and no one to even eat with."

Lin Yingying said, "Exactly, so I’ve thought of a solution. Starting today, you will be in charge of my lunch. I don’t eat cilantro, green onions, or garlic; anything else is fine. Remember that when you’re getting the food."

Long Fei almost spat blood and said, "Big sis, I’m a security guard, not your secretary!"

Lin Yingying frowned and said, "Aren’t you going to listen to the president? Do you not want your job anymore?"

Long Fei replied, "Sure, you’re the boss. Whatever you say goes!"

He really gave in; he didn’t understand why Lin Yingying, with nothing better to do, was messing with him.

Being president is so impressive, huh!

Being president means you can just bully anyone, huh!

After she ate for a while, she suddenly asked, "I heard that your HR department was quite lively this morning!"

"A bit!

Long Fei nodded, taking large bites of his chicken leg.

Lin Yingying frowned upon seeing that and asked, "How come my chicken leg doesn’t look the same as yours?"

Long Fei choked a bit and defended himself, "How is it different? Aren’t they both grown on chickens?"

Lin Yingying laughed and said, "I see, Wang Xiaoya must have given you special treatment, right?"

Brother Long anxiously said, "Hey, can you please not spread rumors?"

Lin Yingying smirked and said, "The problem of abusing power for personal gain seems to be serious in the company lately! Give me your chicken leg, and I won’t hold it against you!"

Long Fei gave her a glare, realizing after all this fuss she was just after a chicken leg.

He moved the chicken leg from his plate to hers, as the colleagues around him exclaimed in surprise, muttering amongst themselves, "My God, he’s actually serving food to the president!"

"Isn’t this public display of affection a bit too much?

"My goddess, how could you end up with a security guard!"

"Heavens, I wish I were that chicken leg!"

From a distance, Wang Xiaoya clenched her teeth and exclaimed, "The jerk, that chicken leg I personally marinated for him, he just gave it to another woman!"

Da Tou quickly tried to calm her, "Take it easy, manager. Brother Long must be trying to make peace by selling himself out, it’s not easy for him either!"

"You’re the one selling out!"

Wang Xiaoya shouted frustratedly, knocked him with a spoon, and told him to get back to work.

She couldn’t let Lin Yingying and Long Fei continue like this and give others something to talk about behind their backs.

Wang Xiaoya took off her apron, got herself a plate of food, and sat down next to Long Fei.

The male colleagues around her all turned red-eyed, one after another they exclaimed, "Damn, another one has joined!"

"Lovebirds often end fast; they’re making it unbearable for us single folks!"

"What’s the fuss about a mere security guard getting company of two beauties for a meal!"

"Don’t stop me, I’m going to be a security guard too!"

Long Fei awkwardly wanted to die, sitting with one to his left and another to his right.

His two biggest nemeses had finally come together.

Wang Xiaoya smiled at Lin Yingying, "Director Lin, is the chicken leg delicious? It’s marinated using a hometown recipe of mine; not just anyone gets to taste this!"

Lin Yingying replied, "The flavor is good; it deserves to be promoted in our company’s cafeteria."

Wang Xiaoya’s eyes sparkled as she said, "Oh no, that won’t do. This is something I made especially for Long Fei. If everyone can have it, what’s the point?"

Lin Yingying nodded and said, "That makes sense. It seems I’ve taken advantage of Long Fei’s special treatment today."

Wang Xiaoya chuckled, "That’s alright; chicken legs can be shared, but some things can’t. Like, for example, men!"

She glanced at Long Fei with a playful look of faux annoyance on her face.

There were rumors that Long Fei had a special relationship with the president, and today she had truly seen it for herself.

Long Fei choked on his rice soup, surprised by Wang Xiaoya’s usually gentle demeanour which today had sharp words.

Women in love are indeed all Sherlock Holmes.

As smart as Lin Yingying was, she naturally grasped the meaning behind her words.

She said with a smile, "Little Ya, don’t misunderstand. I prefer Western food and only occasionally enjoy a chicken leg. You two chat, I’m full!"

She stood up, placed her plate aside, and left.

Long Fei, with his head down, continued to eat his meal in silence, opting not to say a single word.

Wang Xiaoya looked at him and grumbled, "Aren’t you impressive, having the president herself come to dine with you?"

Long Fei cleared his throat twice and said, "Don’t get the wrong idea; she didn’t know anyone else and feared dining alone would be awkward, so she sat with me."

Wang Xiaoya pouted, "I don’t care; from now on you can’t have meals alone with any other girl, even if she is the president."

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Long Fei agreed and said with a light laugh, "Your eloquence just now was quite something! It’s really beneath you to be just a manager in the cafeteria!"

"Get lost!"

Wang Xiaoya gave him a look, finished her meal with him, and then pushed him to hurry down the stairs.

Back in the president’s office, Lin Yingying took a deep breath and murmured to herself, "What the hell? As if your boyfriend is all that desirable! It’s just a security guard; look how flustered you got!"

Sometime later, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Yingying resumed her cool and elegant expression and told the person outside to come in.

Su Qi, with her graceful figure, strutted in on high heels, sat opposite her, and said with a light laugh, "What’s this I hear? You went downstairs to compete with a young girl for a man?"

"Cut it out, are you here to tease me?"

Lin Yingying rolled her eyes.

Su Qi giggled, "No, I’m here to report on work. Sure enough, there’s been movement in the human resources department. We need to start preparing to get our people in place."

Lin Yingying frowned, "Is it that serious for a minor manager’s rule violation?"

Su Qi shook her head, "It’s not so simple. In my opinion, this is just the beginning. In a few days, there will definitely be big news breaking."

Lin Yingying asked, "Do you suspect it’s Chu Feng?"

Su Qi nodded, took out several photos, and handed them to her, "These are from my covert investigation. This guy has been very close to Zheng Tuo’s secretary lately. The issues in the group chat are most likely his doing."

Lin Yingying looked at the photos and wondered, "What’s his background, anyway? How can a minor manager afford a sports car?"

Su Qi replied, "I’ve had someone check; the sports car is rented. But his background is not ordinary. We’ve been investigating for so long and haven’t found anything."

Lin Yingying was silent for a moment, then asked, "What if things aren’t as you suspect?"

Su Qi laughed, "If the conditions exist, we’ll act; if they don’t, we’ll create the conditions to act. Whether or not we can implicate Zheng Tuo, he must be brought down. If Chu Feng won’t act, we will."

"Alright, you arrange it!"

Lin Yingying agreed with a nod.

The human resources department needed to be under their control; otherwise, they couldn’t touch the company veterans.

If they wanted to make an impact, it was just empty talk.

"There’s another matter that needs your attention!"

Su Qi looked at Lin Yingying, her expression hesitant.

"Just say it, as long as it doesn’t involve selling my body, I can do anything!"

Lin Yingying joked.
