Fence-Sitters Who Go With The Flow

編集者: EndlessFantasy Translation

There was a smile on that man's lips as his fingers touched Xia Zhiwan's cheek pitifully. "You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know that I like you a lot now. Besides, I believe that you can take on this position."

He wanted to personally protect this bud that had not shown her capabilities, waiting for the day when she would bloom beautifully.

His words were filled with a superior's confidence and a lover's gentleness. It was as if he had cast a spell, causing Xia Zhiwan's heart to be drawn into him.

Although the man in front of her seemed to look at her like she was a precious treasure, she knew that he was a stubborn person. He would not reveal anything else since he already said that.

"Then you should at least tell me how I should address you, right?"

"I won't mind if you call me hubby now." The elegant, good-looking man seemed to be cold and domineering. However, when facing Xia Zhiwan, he always could not help but tease her.

Seeing her face about to turn red with anger again, he teased and bit her earlobe with the corner of his mouth. "Just call me Issac."

"Are you mixed? Your eyes are gorgeous." Xia Zhiwan stared at his deep eyes as she complimented sincerely.

His eyes were like high-quality emeralds. His pupils were so clear and bright that her reflection could be seen.

Issac just smiled without giving her a direct answer. He then took her hand and kissed it. "In that case, I hope that you'll forever stay in my eyes."

Xia Zhiwan bit her lower lip and tried to hold back her excitement. She then changed the topic and said, "The position you have given me is too high. Xia Zhiya is going to go crazy and never let me off the hook."

Indeed, Xia Zhiwan joined the Xia Corporation to gradually prove herself using her efforts and climb to the top. However, such sudden news came.

The man's arrogant eyes seem to look down on all ordinary beings. Nonetheless, he stroked her soft, delicate hair, wrapped them around his finger, and said confidently, "I'll protect you. I'll get rid of those annoying bugs sooner or later."

When Xia Zhiwan returned to the general manager's office with a flushed face, she was surprised to see her colleagues surrounding the door.

The employees who treated her coldly and rudely in the morning had all come over to apologize to her.

Among them, there was also Weiwei with a ponytail. Weiwei explained to Xia Zhiwan awkwardly, "Please don't take it to heart. It's Xia Zhiya who asked us to deliberately target the newcomer. We're just employees with low positions, so we won't dare to refuse her. Please be generous and forgive our wrongdoings."

Xia Zhiwan already knew it from the start, so she did not blame them. Instead, she smiled and patted Weiwei's shoulder. "It's alright. You'll be my assistant from now on."

Weiwei was surprised as she was suddenly promoted from a normal employee to a general manager's assistant.

The other colleagues also went with the flow and apologized. Some were sincere, while some acted hypocritically. Xia Zhiwan just sent them off with a calm expression.

"Alright, stop wasting your time here to apologize. Everyone should get back to work now."

Xia Zhiwan thought for a moment, showed a cunning smile, and said suddenly. 

"Where's Supervisor Xie? Ask her to make me a cup of coffee."

Soon, the previously arrogant Supervisor Xie served a cup of coffee with a smile like a tamed kitten.

"General Manager Xia, I was a little agitated just now. I hope that you won't blame me."

Xia Zhiwan glanced at her, took a sip of coffee, and frowned fiercely. She then raised the cup as if she was about to slash the coffee at Supervisor Xie.

Supervisor Xie closed her eyes as she awaited her punishment, thinking Xia Zhiwan would take an eye for an eye.

However, Xia Zhiwan just smiled, took another sip, and said, "Don't worry, I won't simply splash coffee on others. After all, I'm well mannered."

Xia Zhiwan did not care about others' expressions anymore. She just turned around and walked into her exclusive general manager's office.

In the president's office, drama unfolded. 

Xia Zhiya barged into the office in a rage. She threw her branded handbag aside, hugged Master Xia's arm, and started sobbing. "Dad, why was our company sold off? Aren't we ranked first in the jewelry industry?"

Xia Dengfeng looked at his naive second daughter and sighed. "There are always people who are better than us. The Louis Financial Group's power is too frightening, so we can't be compared to them."

Although that was what Master Xia said, Xia Zhiya was still unconvinced. Her eyes were glaring as she said, "Then how is Xia Zhiwan better than me? Why did the financial group let her snatch away my position and make me the deputy manager?!"
