Chapter 1056: Chapter 1056: Another Cost

Zeng Xiaozhang’s Office.

“Just you wait, I don’t believe you’re not scared at all!” Zeng Xiaozhang’s face was extremely grim.

“Manager… here’s your coffee.” Lv Xiaoqian cautiously placed the coffee on Zeng Xiaozhang’s desk. She didn’t know why Zeng Xiaozhang’s expression suddenly turned so ugly. He was still looking excited just now when he went out.

At this moment, Zeng Xiaozhang was already in a foul mood, and coupled with the wound on a part of his body slightly splitting open, he was even more furious. Seeing Lv Xiaoqian standing there dumbly, he became even more irritable.

“Lv Xiaoqian, are you also thinking of going to Shiyan Group?” Zeng Xiaozhang angrily cursed.

“I, I didn’t…” Lv Xiaoqian bit her lip. She had heard that Wang Dadong set up his own security team at Shiyan Group. They do need administrative staff there, and she indeed wanted to go, but the shadow of being rejected by Wang Dadong like that still hadn’t disappeared.

So, she didn’t approach Wang Dadong.

Perhaps, this was the last ounce of dignity she could hold onto.

“You didn’t? Then why the hell are you giving me coffee made with cold water?” Zeng Xiaozhang picked up the coffee cup and splashed it on Lv Xiaoqian’s face.

Actually, it wasn’t cold water; it just wasn’t hot enough. However, the temperature was perfect for not burning someone but just painful enough.

But clearly, the pain in Lv Xiaoqian’s heart at this moment was far more intense than the physical pain.

Thinking about the things that happened and what was about to happen during her time away from the company, Lv Xiaoqian felt life was indeed so bleak.

She once thought knowledge could change her fate, but instead, it…

…

Qin Shuya was silent for a moment and placed a rectangular object wrapped in newspaper on Wang Dadong’s desk.

Wang Dadong looked at Qin Shuya with some confusion, not knowing what she meant.

Unwrapping the newspaper, he found inside a thick stack of RMB, a full thirty thousand yuan.

Seeing the money, Wang Dadong immediately understood Qin Shuya’s intention; she was trying to bribe him.

Casually picking up the money, Wang Dadong’s expression turned playful, and he asked, “What’s your monthly salary?”

“Five, five thousand…” Qin Shuya answered softly.

Wang Dadong nodded, his smile growing wider, “Do you think this amount is enough to bribe me? If I recall correctly, you’re on the candidate list for supervisor next month, aren’t you? How much does a supervisor make again? Oh, right, eight thousand a month.”

Upon hearing Wang Dadong’s words, Qin Shuya’s expression changed instantly, realizing that Wang Dadong thought the money was too little. Gritting her teeth, she asked, “Manager, how much do you want?”

Wang Dadong tilted his head and thought for a moment, “One hundred thousand.”

“One, one hundred thousand!” Qin Shuya was startled by the number Wang Dadong mentioned.

One hundred thousand, she’d have to save for two years to reach that amount, and that’s without buying much clothing or cosmetics.

“Manager, I, I don’t have that much money…” Qin Shuya looked at Wang Dadong pleadingly.

Wang Dadong showed a regretful expression and said, “Is that so? Then there’s nothing I can do.”

After saying that, he ignored Qin Shuya and started playing Minesweeper.

Seeing Wang Dadong’s indifferent demeanor, Qin Shuya was very angry. Sister Zhang had guessed right; Wang Dadong wasn’t going to let her off.

But to come up with one hundred thousand all at once, she just couldn’t manage it.

From Wang Dadong’s attitude, it was obvious that if she couldn’t come up with this hundred thousand, she certainly wouldn’t have a chance of being promoted to supervisor.

This detestable man was too greedy, demanding one hundred thousand!

What to do, what to do? Does she really have to sacrifice her dignity?

Qin Shuya didn’t want to do that, as she was a proper girl, but she also didn’t want to give up the chance to be promoted to supervisor.

This was the hope she had worked hard for over two years to achieve.

Qin Shuya bit her silver fang nearly hard enough to break the skin of her lips, unsure how to choose.

If she didn’t come up with the money, she feared not only would she lose her chance for promotion, but she would also be constantly harassed by Wang Dadong in her job.

At this point, Qin Shuya really wanted to slap herself a few times. Why did she talk too much in the first place? Plus, she wasn’t the only one discussing Wang Dadong…

After a long while, Qin Shuya finally made a decision. As a woman, she’d end up sleeping with a man sooner or later anyway. When the time comes, she’d just close her eyes, grit her teeth, and get through it. Her career was not something she could just discard.

Thinking about it, Qin Shuya slowly said, “Manager, as long as you don’t pursue today’s matter and don’t cancel my chance of promotion to supervisor, I am willing to pay another kind of price…”

Hearing this, Wang Dadong stopped using his mouse and looked at Qin Shuya with a smile, “Another kind of price? What kind of price is that?”

“It’s, it’s…” Qin Shuya lowered her head, seeming too embarrassed to speak.

Wang Dadong, however, stood up from his seat, smiling, then walked to stand in front of Qin Shuya and reached out his hand towards her face.

Qin Shuya’s heart was pounding so fast, it felt like it was about to leap out of her chest.

Even though she had prepared for the worst before coming, now that it was about to happen, she was still very nervous and scared.

Especially since this was a man she despised.

Previously, Qin Shuya had felt some admiration for Wang Dadong; after all, young and accomplished men always easily attract women’s attention.

If Wang Dadong was willing, she wouldn’t mind having an office romance with him.

But after hearing rumors about Wang Dadong being a kept man, her view of him changed, from respect and a slight admiration to disdain, and now she downright hated Wang Dadong.

Wang Dadong’s hand slowly brushed across Qin Shuya’s fair and delicate cheek, making her entire body tense.

Unexpectedly, something she had treasured for so many years was going to be given to such a vile man, and in an office too…

The thought of it made Qin Shuya feel very unwilling.

But after waiting for so long, Qin Shuya didn’t feel Wang Dadong take any further action, so she opened her eyes and found that Wang Dadong had already sat back on the sofa.

“Your name is Qin Shuya, right?” Wang Dadong lit a cigarette and asked.

Qin Shuya nodded, her expression puzzled, not knowing why Wang Dadong had stopped.

“Qin Shuya, graduate of Jiangdu Normal University’s Class of 2012, major in Human Resource Management, working for a total of two years. Within these two years, although your performance hasn’t been particularly outstanding, you’ve never made any mistakes, and your work is meticulous and serious…”

Listening to Wang Dadong’s description, Qin Shuya’s eyes widened even more.
