113: Chapter 113: If the Heart is Stirred, Take Action 113: Chapter 113: If the Heart is Stirred, Take Action “Lin Fei, why are you late again today?

It seems like you don’t want your paycheck at the end of the month.”

Just as Lin Fei was kicked out of the CEO’s office by Mu Shanshan and walked into the General Affairs Department office area, he was blocked by Xiao Yina.

Wrapped in a long, red fishtail dress, Xiao Yina added a touch of sensual beauty, with the slightly slit hem revealing a small section of tender, pink legs.

Her pretty face was lightly made up, and Lin Fei could even smell some perfume.

Today’s Xiao Yina certainly made Lin Fei’s eyes light up.

“Little Yina, getting all dolled up like that, could it be that you’ve already heard I’m going to be promoted to Vice Minister, so you want to seduce me?

Let me tell you, your minister is absolutely not that kind of casual person.

Don’t think that just because you dolled yourself up a bit I won’t be able to resist making a move on you.

At the very least, you’d have to go and book a hotel room first.”

Mu Shanshan had given him an ultimatum, and with his imminent departure from the General Affairs Department, Lin Fei naturally wanted to take every opportunity to tease.

Lest, once he left the General Affairs Department, the female colleagues there would forget about him.

“Vice Minister?

Sisters, stop all your work for a second.

Our Lin Assistant is going to be Vice Minister again.

You tell me, for such a joyful event, shouldn’t Vice Minister Lin treat us to a meal?” Xiao Yina didn’t pay any attention to Lin Fei’s teasing, mainly because she had already gotten used to the way Lin Fei spoke.

Instead, she managed to give Lin Fei a little jab.

Stirred up by Xiao Yina in such a manner, the originally quite quiet General Affairs Department was now completely covered by sounds of laughter and joy.

Hmm, to be precise, various kinds of teasing.

Previously, on Lin Fei’s first day joining the General Affairs Department, he had taken advantage of the women there using the excuse that he was there to be the Vice Minister.

Even Xiao Yina had ended up kissing him voluntarily.

And it was precisely since then that Lin Fei had been completely listed as the least trustworthy person in the General Affairs Department.

This time, Lin Fei didn’t make it clear that he was transferring to the Security Department to be its Vice Minister, so the ladies thought he was going to replay his old tricks.

Especially after Xiao Yina’s embellishment, none of the female employees in the General Affairs Department could believe Lin Fei.

However, this didn’t stop them from eagerly cheering and demanding that Lin Fei treat them to a meal.

“Treat us, treat us.”

For a time, the cheers for him to host a meal echoed throughout the General Affairs Department.

Looking at each and every one of the women, who clearly had disbelief written all over their faces but still vigorously cheered for him to treat them to a meal, Lin Fei really felt a bit aggrieved.

However, he also knew all too well that him suddenly claiming to become a Vice Minister didn’t really have much convincing power.

Although under Mu Shanshan’s management of the company, Mu Group had its fair share of young executives such as Ling Weiwei and Shen Peini.

However, the capabilities of Ling Weiwei and Shen Peini were basically there for everyone to see; their promotions to ministerial positions were convincing.

As for Lin Fei, other departments might not be clear about what kind of employee Lin Fei was at work, but how could the female employees of the General Affairs Department, who had been teased by Lin Fei no less, not be clear?

They did not understand the relationship between Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan, and whether it was seniority or capability, Lin Fei didn’t meet any of the promotion criteria, so naturally, they could not be convinced about Lin Fei.

“Ling Director, you’ve come out just in time.

Please tell us, is our General Affairs Department going to have another Vice Minister Lin?”

Xiao Yina had sharp eyes; as soon as she saw Ling Weiwei coming out from the office, she quickly ran over and linked her arm, smiling as she spoke.

“That’s right, Ling Director, please tell us, is our Assistant Lin really going to be a Vice Minister?”

“If it’s true, we don’t mind being seduced by Vice Minister Lin.”

“That’s right, speaking of which, our Assistant Lin is quite handsome.

If he really does become a Vice Minister, any sister here could be picked to be your girlfriend.”

“Cough, cough.” Seeing her subordinates speaking more and more freely, Ling Weiwei had no choice but to give a fake cough twice, interrupting their teasing of Lin Fei.

Ling Weiwei was, after all, the General Affairs Director, and she still had quite a bit of prestige in the General Affairs Department.

With her cough, the previously noisy female employees of the General Affairs Department dialed it back a bit.

Ling Weiwei’s bright eyes fixed on Lin Fei, “Should I say it, or are you going to?”

Lin Fei spread his shoulders in slight resignation, puckering his lips in frustration at the General Affairs Department’s female employees gathered around, “Do you think they’ll believe me?”

Ling Weiwei looked around the circle of people, and her eyes eventually settled back on Lin Fei’s face.

After all, they worked in the same department, so Ling Weiwei certainly knew what Lin Fei was like at work.

She also knew that even if Lin Fei’s words were clear and straightforward, most of the women in the General Affairs Department probably wouldn’t believe him.

In fact, if it weren’t for the call from the CEO’s secretarial office and a personal call to Mu Shanshan to confirm, Ling Weiwei wouldn’t have believed Lin Fei’s words either, given his day-to-day performance at work, that he could be promoted to Vice Minister of the Security Department.

Although it wasn’t the position of Vice Minister of the General Affairs Department, the salary and treatment were the same.

As reluctant as Ling Weiwei was to believe it, she was clear that this was not her illusion, but a settled fact.

Seeing a group of General Affairs Department employees eagerly awaiting her response, Ling Weiwei couldn’t keep silent any longer and slightly parted her lips, “In the near future, no one will be promoted to Vice Minister of the General Affairs Department.”

As soon as Ling Weiwei uttered those words, Xiao Yina and the other women of the General Affairs Department breathed a long sigh of relief.

Just now, seeing Ling Weiwei and Lin Fei conversing as if there was some trick to it, they genuinely started to doubt and even the faint-hearted began to regret a little.

The workplace can be quite cruel, especially in large companies.

If Lin Fei was really promoted to Vice Minister, then they would have essentially been ridiculing their superior.

In the workplace, laughing at your superior is akin to asking for disaster.

“Lin Fei, can’t keep up your act, can you?

Just go ahead and treat us to a meal, and we’ll consider today’s incident as if it’s never happened.

If you dare not to, we’ll make sure you can’t walk away from it.”

Believing that Lin Fei would not be “promoted,” the women of the General Affairs Department resumed threatening him to treat them to a meal.

Seeing her female subordinates showing signs of continuing to court disaster, Ling Weiwei couldn’t keep up the pretense any longer and hurriedly said, “I haven’t finished speaking yet.

What’s the rush?

Assistant Lin indeed won’t become the vice minister of our General Affairs Department.

However, he has been transferred to the position of vice minister in the Security Department.”

As soon as Ling Weiwei made this announcement, the women of the General Affairs Department were utterly astonished, even the usually arrogant Xiao Yina couldn’t help but turn pale.

“Director Ling, are you serious?”

“Director Ling, you aren’t teaming up with Lin Fei to deceive us, are you?”

Some of the startled women of the General Affairs Department, clinging to their last hope, sought confirmation from Ling Weiwei again.

“I’ve already spoken with President Mu on the phone.

This appointment was personally issued by President Mu.

I think, unless there are any unexpected events, our Mu Group will have a Vice Minister Lin starting from tomorrow.”

Ling Weiwei didn’t play mysterious this time and confirmed definitively to Xiao Yina and the others that Lin Fei would indeed be promoted to the vice minister of the Security Department.

“Before the official appointment from the personnel department comes through, you are still part of my General Affairs Department.

Assistant Lin, come to my office.”

Ling Weiwei took advantage of the fact that Lin Fei hadn’t officially taken up the position as vice minister of the Security Department yet and stepped in to relieve the women of the General Affairs Department.

Although there was no reporting relationship between the General Affairs and Security Departments, a vice minister was a vice minister.

The previous comments made by the women of the General Affairs Department already amounted to mocking a superior.

“If I remember correctly, you said just now that if I really became a vice minister, I could invoke the ‘unwritten rules’ with you, right?

I always like to help others and won’t disappoint you.”

Lin Fei strode into Ling Weiwei’s office, leaving behind a group of female employees from the General Affairs Department in disarray.

“Do you find it uncomfortable to stay in the General Affairs Department?”

After Lin Fei entered Ling Weiwei’s office, the woman didn’t show any intention of entertaining him.

Instead, she crossed her arms in front of her chest, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, and abruptly threw out this question.

If you listened carefully, you could discern a slight tremor in Ling Weiwei’s voice.

Compared to the shock of those women in the General Affairs Department upon learning that Lin Fei was about to become the vice minister of the Security Department.

Ling Weiwei, who had quite a fondness for Lin Fei, felt a mix of happiness and concern when receiving the call from the president’s secretary’s office.

“How could that be?

I’d love nothing more than to stay in the General Affairs Department forever.”

This was definitely what Lin Fei truly felt.

Like the “Women Country,” there were not many men in the whole world who wouldn’t want to stay in a place like the General Affairs Department.

“So that means you’re ready to mend your ways and strive for advancement?”

Ling Weiwei suddenly turned around, her pretty eyes shimmering with a flicker of unabashed joy.

No woman would not hope for the man she liked to be ambitious and excellent.

Ling Weiwei obviously preferred Lin Fei to achieve something in his career rather than to keep him by her side with no aspirations.

This view was essentially in agreement with Mu Shanshan.

Both women had strong career aspirations, so they both hoped that their life partners could make their mark in their careers.

Lin Fei was surprised, then he smiled wryly and shook his head.

Having been around the social scene for years, how could he not guess what was on Ling Weiwei’s mind at the moment?

Although he didn’t wish for the joy in her eyes to fade away, he truly wasn’t the type of person to make a mark in the business world or workplace.

“Then what is it that really makes you want to leave the General Affairs Department?”

Ling Weiwei quickly walked a few steps forward, approached Lin Fei closely, leaned her upper body forward, and whispered.

“I can’t explain it all in just a few words.

All I can tell you is that I’ve been very happy during my time in the General Affairs Department.

Leaving the department wasn’t my intention.

And even if I do leave, your lounge must always be ready and open for me.”

Inhaling the faint scent emanating from Ling Weiwei’s delicate body, Lin Fei began to feel restless.

He was not one to hold back — his dictionary had never included the word “restraint.” When it came to a beautiful department director willingly coming forward, Lin Fei was even less inclined to be polite.

“Uh—”

Lin Fei’s hands wrapped around Ling Weiwei’s slender waist, and he unapologetically covered the woman’s moist lips with a big kiss.
