Chapter 77: Chapter 77 The President Never Receives Female Guests


    The next day.


    Su Zixi woke up from her dorm bed, remembering she was to meet with the young Master He of HI Group for business today, her heart fluttered inexplicably.


    She quickly got up from the bed, taking a special effort to bathe, wash her hair, do skincare, and even meticulously applied makeup… It wasn’t because she was meeting He Jingyao that she was so serious, but purely because… well, as a mark of courtesy! Yes, as a demonstration of how much she valued the business meeting!


    Having convinced herself with this reason, she then opened her wardrobe to look for suitable attire. Unfortunately, it seemed she hadn’t bought new clothes in a long time, and after a long search, she only found a set of clothes that barely worked.


    After a long time, a white shirt paired with a small ck skirt was the only outfit that was barely wearable—a mix of solemnity with a hint of vivacity and charm, though the skirt was a bit too short, perhaps more convenient for He Jingyao to make advances…


    Realizing what she was thinking, Su Zixi’s cheeks suddenly turned a bright red!


    Was she already looking forward to him making advances on her?


    Su Zixi, embarrassed, pressed her head against the wardrobe door, and it took her quite a while to pluck up the courage to change into her clothes and shoes and head out with her bag.


    When she took a taxi to the HI Group, it was just nine in the morning.


    Seeing the towering building in front of her, Su Zixi’s heart felt a little surge.


    She approached the reception desk, exined her purpose to the receptionist who smiled and said, “I’m sorry, Miss, I can’t let you go up.”


    “Huh? Why?” Su Zixi was taken aback.


    “If you really had an appointment with the president, then the president’s office would definitely have given us a list in advance, but I’m afraid your name isn’t on it.”


    “Howe it isn’t?” Su Zixi bit her lip, feeling somewhat disappointed and dissatisfied, “He clearly told me toe find him at HI Group today.”


    The receptionist looked a bit awkward. The president’s office never received female guests, something she knew all too well as a receptionist.


    “I’m sorry, but could you have gotten it wrong?” The receptionist patiently said, “There’s also another Mr. He at HI, Mr. He Yizheng, the CEO for the Southeast Asia region of HI Group. He happens to be in the country at the moment.”


    He Yizheng… He sounds like a member of the He family too.


    Su Zixi sighed and shook her head, “The one I’m looking for is Young Master He Jingyao… Really, I can’t go up?”


    The receptionist apologetically shook her head.


    Su Zixi felt a bit lost. She said thanks and turned to walk to a nearby seating area, utterly dejected. Only after a while did she remember that she had He Jingyao’s phone number.


    She reached into her bag, intending to call him but changed her mind. Perhaps the young master had forgotten about this entirely since he hadn’t even told the receptionist that she would being.

    Su Zixi felt depressed enough to want to pull her hair out.


    Just then, a gentle voice came from above her head: “Su Zixi?”


    When Su Zixi looked up, she instantly widened her eyes!


    Standing before her was a woman with a gentle smile, the fiancée of young Master He she had met once… Xia Xinyu!


    Su Zixi abruptly stood up, looking somewhat rmed, “Xia… Miss Xia!”


    Just yesterday, she had met with young Master He, and they had been quite intimate… Thinking back on her words from before, she felt as if she had pped her own face.


    She felt tangled and guilty all at once.


    “What are you doing here?” Xia Xinyu’s voice was extremely gentle.


    “Uh… I came here to apply for an internship.” Su Zixi managed a forced smile.


    “Is that so… I thought you were here to see Jingyao,” Xia Xinyu’s voice floated lightly.
