Chapter 145: yed Like a Monkey


    Trantor: 549690339 |


    33rd floor, Office of the President.


    The imported carpet from overseas was clearly of expensive value, and the gold chandeliers were even more luxurious and beautiful.


    Chi Enen couldn’t help but hold her breath as she walked up to the reception. In


    a soft voice, she said, “Hello, I would like to see the CEO.”


    The receptionist sized her up and maintained a perfect smile, “Do you have an appointment?”


    “I don’t, but I am an employee of thepany. I would like to speak with the


    CEO…”


    The receptionist, without changing her expression, interrupted her, “I’m sorry,


    but without an appointment, we can’t let you in.”


    Chi Enen bit her lower lip and asked, “Then, could you please pass on a message to the CEO for me? Just say the afternoon shift radio show host Chi Enen would like to meet with him, 1 have something important to discuss.”


    The receptionist nced at her and replied, with a touch of impatience, I m sorry, the CEO is in a meeting.”


    “I mean after the meeting is over…”


    “Even after the meeting, we wouldn’t dare to pass your message without


    permission! Please don’t make our job difficult.”


    With no other options, Chi Enen could only say, “Then 1 can wait over there for


    the CEO toe out, right?”


    “That’s fine.”


    She sat down on the sofa in the waiting area with her leather bag, thinking she would at most wait an hour to see someone. But from 3 o’clock until 6, she hadn’t seen anyone. Chi Enen started to get impatient and went back to the reception desk.


    “Um, has the CEO not left work yet?”


    The receptionist was already packing up her things and without lifting her


    head said, “The CEO left a long time ago, didn’t you know?”


    “Left?” Chi Enen raised her voice.


    She knew jack shit!


    No one had told her anything!


    The receptionist lifted her head, nced at her without a hint of guilt, and said dismissively, “The CEO left at 4 o’clock through his exclusive elevator. You shoulde back tomorrow.”


    She could see now that it didn’t matter whether she came back tomorrow or the day after, the receptionist had no intention to pass on her message. And with the CEO able to leave through the exclusive elevator inside, she didn t even have a chance to intercept him.


    After spending half the day here and waiting for almost as long, and just when she thought she could see him, she was yed for a fool and left with a belly full of anger. She held back, clenched her leather bag, and walked towards the exit…


    Just as she reached the elevator entrance, she still heard the receptionists behind her murmuring softly.


    “Tch, she doesn’t even have an appointment and still wants to see the CEO. Does she think the CEO is some market vendor who’s avable whenever she wants?”


    “Probably heard the rumors that the new CEO is a tall, rich, and handsome guy and wanted to get a bit of attention.”


    “Haha, she has no self-awareness.”


    “Exactly.”


    Chi Enen clenched her fists tightly, acting as if she hadn’t heard, and stepped


    into the elevator.


    In the recording studio downstairs, Qin Nan was already waiting for her. As soon as she arrived, Qin Nan immediately approached her and asked, “How did it go?”


    Chi Enen weakly waved the unchanged leather bag in her hand and said in frustration, “1 didn’t even see him, and the reception toyed with me.”


    “I told you that you wouldn’t be able to meet him, but you didn’t believe me. But why did the reception toy with you?”


    “They think I’m looking to y out a modern version of the Cindere and Prince story with the CEO. Damn it, it’s not like I’ve eaten too many barbecued sparrows, where on my face does it say I want to fly up the branches and be a phoenix?”


    “Ha ha ha.” Qin Nan could hardly contain herughter, patting Enen’s shoulder to console her, “It’s not your face that’s got writing on it, it’s someone else s face this morning.”


    “…What do you mean?”


    “This morning in the office, I didn’t finish the gossip with you. It’s about Wei Ting from the evening time slot. Remember how she ran into the CEO after work? I don’t know if her brain short-circuited or what, but she actually bought a cup of coffee and delivered it to the Office of the President, trying to suck up. And then, guess what happened?”


    Wei Ting-


    An image of a beauty with long legs, a big chest, and a v-shaped face popped


    into Chi Enen’s head.


    She couldn’t suppress the racy gossip about Wei Ting getting it on in the toilet that Wang Jian mentioned, and shivered uncontrobly, “I can’t guess.


    “I couldn’t have guessed it either, but the CEO threw her out along with the coffee she brought, and said…” Qin Nan tried to hold back herughter, “and said… he never touches cheap takeout. Pfft ha ha ha. Cheap takeout… I can just picture the twisted look on Wei Ting’s pretty face.”


    Chi Enen had neither good nor bad feelings for Wei Ting and was indifferent to her brazen advances. However, upon hearing the term ‘cheap takeout,’ she couldn’t help but snark, “That’s so typically ‘straight man cancer’!”


    “Who can me him? He’s got the ‘straight man cancer’ capital.”


    Qin Nan took a sip of water and nced at the time to give her a heads-up.


    “Alright, the live stream is about to start, get ready.”


    “Okay.”


    In terms of work, Chi Enen was nothing if not meticulous. She cleared her throat and popped a mint candy, tested her vocal tone, and then put all the unpleasantness behind her, with a smile tugging at the corner of her mouth, she turned on the microphone—


    “Hello to all our listeners out there, this is BBC City Radio City Help, and I m your host, Enen. A new week hase upon us. Did you go out and have fun over the weekend? Did you encounter any amusing or funny incidents that you’d like to share with us? Alright, as usual, let’s y a song to ease the fatigue of driving…”


    In a vi in the wealthy neighborhood.


    Smooth music poured from the radio as Li Beijue tipped back his head and gulped down the red wine, massaging the temples that had been tired out all day long.


    The overworked brain began to rx at the sweet voice it heard, and drowsiness unexpectedly crept in. He closed his eyes, allowing himself to slip into a light sleep.


    Two hourster, the show ended.


    The sleeping man’s eyes snapped open as if an acupressure point had been triggered.


    Damn it!


    He was beyond exhausted, but without that familiar voice, he just couldn’t sleep!


    Li Beijue got up, put on his pajamas with his aristocratic jaw clenched tight, and took out the sleeping pills Si Chen had prescribed from the drawer. He downed a few pills with a swig…


    After half an hour, he still couldn’t sleep. He turned on the light, irritably got dressed, grabbed his mobile phone, and made a call, roaring at someone, “Video conference in 15 minutes; anyone who’ste can kiss their bonus goodbye this month!”


    “…Yes, Young Master Li.”


    Three hourster, the video conference finished.


    Si Chen immediately called, and Li Beijue, rubbing his throbbing temples, answered in a sour mood, “Speak if you have business; otherwise, scram!”


    Si Chen chuckled on the other end of the phone, ignoring his ill temper, and teased calmly, “Even if I scram, you still wouldn’t be able to sleep, so I won’t.


    “What do you want?”


    “It’s nothing much, just that 1 was all bathed and had taken off my pants, ready to have some fun with the Beauty Manager. Then yourmand dragged my femalepanion out of bed for the video conference. By the time she finished, our little passion had died down, and I’m wide awake with nothing better to do, so I decided to give you a call.”


    Li Beijue furrowed his brows, annoyed, “You’ve changed women again?”


    “With all the beauties at yourpany, 1 can’t help it. The Innocent


    Receptionist is nice, but I got tired of her, and wanted to try someone with long legs and married. The Beauty Manager presented herself, so I thought, why not give it a whirl.” Anticipating what he was about to say, Si Chen let out a lowugh, “Don’t worry, I won’t cause any damage. And she’s not stupid—she knows what I can give her and what I can’t. As long as she’s not greedy, I can be a pretty good lover.”
