My Honor

The man chuckled. "Why were you so angry just now?"

Ning Yao felt extremely embarrassed when she thought about how she had yelled at Clarence. "No... It's nothing... How may I help you, Mr. He?"

Did he call to tell her that she wasn't chosen?

"After considering all interviewees, Miss Ning, you've been hired. The probation period is two months. You can come to work tomorrow. Is there a problem?"

Ning Yao was so shocked that she was speechless.

Was she just...hired?

"No problem! I can do it, even if I have to work overtime!" Ning Yao was so happy that she almost jumped out of bed.

It was the first time Clarence had heard such an enthusiastic and happy employee so willing to work overtime. He smiled.

Ning Yao was about to say a few more words of thanks to her new boss when Song Ying, who was on the opposite bed, suddenly shouted, "Ning Yao, who are you talking to? Why are you speaking in such a hushed voice? Is he your boyfriend?"

Her other two roommates, Xu Na and Bai Jie also looked over curiously.

"Is he the one who sang love songs to you outside the dormitory last time? That guy's singing is really bad, but he's very handsome!"

"Or is it the computer science senior? Didn't you say he was a good person?"

The more they guessed, the more excited they became. Ning Yao, on the other hand, was so embarrassed that she wanted to hang up the phone.

But she didn't dare to hang up on her future boss, so she put on her slippers and sneaked out of the dormitory.

Since she no longer had to be so quiet, she quickly called out into the phone. "Mr. He? Mr. He?"

The man on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time. Although she could not see his expression, Ning Yao somehow felt that he was not in a good mood.

"Miss Ning... It seems that you are quite popular in school." Clarence's deep and magnetic voice finally came, but the tone was cold.

Ning Yao smiled awkwardly. "No, not really..."

"Then, does Miss Ning have a boy- I mean, you might be busy with work in the future. So I don't know if you will be able to balance your work and personal life then," said He Huai flatly as if he just wanted to talk business.

"No, I don't have a boyfriend. I only have work and studies in my heart." Ning Yao replied seriously.

She was not wrong. She was not very interested in men.

In other words, she hadn't met the man she was interested in yet.

He Huai nodded with relief when he heard her response, thinking that it was a good thing that his future wife had not been taken away.

"Okay, then you should rest early and report to work tomorrow."

"Alright, goodnight, Mr. He!" Ning Yao excitedly responded.

The moment they ended the call, Ning Yao couldn't help herself from happily spinning in circles in the hallway.

She was going to work at Glory World!

When the next day came about, Ning Yao got up early to get ready while her roommates still lay in bed, asleep.

Today was her first day at work, it was an important day in her life.

She picked out a work-style shirt and straight-legged pants from the closet, put on some light makeup, and went out with a small satchel.

Soon, she arrived at the company. When she arrived at Clarence's office, she found that her boss had not arrived yet, so she sat on the sofa and waited quietly.

After more than 20 minutes, the boss finally arrived. He was a little surprised to see her so early.

"Next time, you don't have to come so early. I don't get up early either." Clarence didn't seem to care about his image at all but he still said, "You're making me look lazy."

Ning Yao suppressed her laughter and nodded. "Okay."

"Report to the HR department first, then Martin will take you around the company to familiarize you with the layout and people. Come meet me at noon."

"Alright!" Ning Yao nodded obediently.

"By the way," said Clarence, "Your office is just across from mine to make things more convenient."

Ning Yao followed Clarence's line of sight and saw that her office was in the cubicle opposite the boss's desk!

This was too scary. Wouldn't it be impossible to even slack off for the entire day? It was like being in jail!

"O-okay." Ning Yao forced out a smile.

The man who had arranged everything was keenly aware of Ning Yao's mood. "You don't like this set-up?"

"No!" Ning Yao's smile became even brighter. "It's my honor to be in the same office as you!"

He Huai chuckled. She didn't know that he had seen through her forced smile.

"Alright, you can go first." The man lowered his head and was already in working mode, exuding a serious aura.

Ning Yao did not dare to disturb him any longer. After exiting the room, she went to report to the HR Department and found Martin.
