Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 81 - 79: Transferred to Headquarters (Part 1)
Huo Zhenyang had just finished an aromatherapy massage and was resting when he saw the little girl arrive. Lounging back, he said, "The therapist this session is very famous, you come in and sit for a while, the therapist will be over soon."
As soon as Jiayi saw his face, she remembered how she had clung to him during her fever last night, her face flushing hot with embarrassment, and she steadfastly refused to go in.
Huo Zhenyang saw her stubbornly standing at the door, not coming in, and raised an eyebrow, "What, you like sunbathing outside?"
"Sunbathing is quite nice. You get your massage, and I’ll enjoy my sun, how nice," she said, sticking out her tongue playfully.
Huo Zhenyang’s brows furrowed.
That morning, he had sent servants to force Mu Qingran to leave the villa.
It was said that Mu Qingran had refused to leave until this little girl, armed with the status of legitimate girlfriend, had managed to get her out.
Just a moment ago, she was self-proclaiming as his woman, and last night she had used him as a human pillow to sleep on, tormenting him all night long; now, she was keeping her distance?
"Come in," Huo Zhenyang’s tone grew firmer.
His voice much more serious, no longer joking around.
Yet Jiayi was still stubborn, "No need, I’ll just stand here..."
"It was fine to share a room with Xue Jingchuan for so long yesterday, but now it’s too hard to come in?" he said, his voice turning fierce.
Right, Xue Jingchuan, how could she have forgotten!
Jiayi asked cautiously, "You’re not really going to have the agency blacklist Xue Jingchuan, are you?"
The man shrugged annoyingly, neither confirming nor denying.
Xue Jingchuan had not easily made it to where he was now; if it was because she had offended this despicable man, Jiayi would’ve died of guilt. Panicking, she said, "I have nothing with him, yesterday was just... just I was too angry. I barely touched him; I didn’t do anything."
His tightly drawn handsome face finally relaxed a bit as he lay on the massage table, speaking indifferently, "Then it all depends on your performance."
Damn it, her life was really exhausting, constantly being threatened by this foul man!
But what could she do...
She could only grit her teeth and slowly walk inside.
Just as she approached, Huo Zhenyang suddenly propped up his upper body, snatched her wrist in one swift move like he was checking something.
"What are you doing?" she jumped in fright.
In broad daylight, he wasn’t going to use her hand again like he did that day on the terrace, was he? He hadn’t been drinking now. Her face turned pale.
"Checking to see if the injury has healed," the man’s voice was low and magnetic, his gaze skimming over her fair arm.
That was it, Jiayi breathed a sigh of relief.
Though it had been medicated, there were still some bruises that hadn’t completely faded, standing out starkly on her delicate white wrist.
His slightly rough fingertips touched her.
Instantly, Jiayi winced in pain, "Ah... it hurts."
"That’s what you get for struggling so hard," he said, his eyes darkening in an instant.
Oh my god, was there no justice?
Would she have struggled if he hadn’t forced himself on her?
In the end, was it her fault?
She pouted her little mouth, determined not to let this unreasonable man touch her again.
He fluttered his eyelashes, "Does it hurt that much?"
"Wouldn’t it hurt? Why don’t you try slamming your hand against a wall?" She was puffing up with anger, her lips practically capable of hanging an oil bottle. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
He crossed his arms, chuckled, and leaned close to her tiny face, his tone mischievously suggesting, "I could compensate you. What do you want?"
Hmph, he was offering her the opportunity.
Her eyes glinted, "Hand it over."
He frowned, but she couldn’t wait any longer, snatched his well-defined hand, and with a growl, lowered her head and bit down.
"Tss—" He sharply inhaled a breath of cold air, and by the time he could pull his hand back, a set of teeth marks was already imprinted like a watch on his wrist.
"This is outrageous—" His anger had nowhere to vent.
She blinked cleverly, "Do you think everything can be solved with money?"
If she was in pain, he had to suffer with her!
He was helpless, he had utterly spoiled her!
Just as he was about to grab her, the physical therapist came over, calling out from outside.
Jiayi quickly turned around and ran off like a bird.
————
A week later, Jiayi boarded the plane home.
Although Southeast Asia was indeed a tropical country that made people reluctant to leave, with surprises and dangers, she still had to return to her everyday life.
She’ll visit again next time if she gets the chance.
On her first day back at JJ, Jiayi distributed the souvenirs she brought from abroad to Tang En’en.
Tang En’en was a foodie, most of the gifts were local specialties like coconut candy, coconut milk, and pineapple cakes.
Having not been at the company for more than a week, Tang En’en had only heard that Jiayi was sent on a business trip by Samuel, and seeing the Southeast Asian souvenirs she brought back, she said with surprise, "Wow, your first business trip is an international one, Samuel really thinks highly of you."
It wasn’t Samuel who thought highly of her; it was that man—with an agenda.
Jiayi hemmed and hawed, and just then, someone clapped their hands, and a voice came with a hint of laughter:
"Okay, everyone, come over for a moment, I have an announcement to make."
It was Samuel who had arrived.
Everyone in the Marketing Department immediately stood up from their seats and walked over.
The General Manager coming to the Marketing Department personally to make an announcement? What could it be?
Seeing everyone assembled, Samuel’s gaze settled on Jiayi:
"Everyone must be aware of Jiayi’s recent business trip. She accompanied the President to Southeast Asia to inspect a batch of wine required by our group. Her performance was quite commendable, and she successfully signed a contract to import wine from Banan Vineyard. The headquarters has recognized her performance and has sent instructions and an appointment letter: Jiayi is to be transferred to the headquarters for work."
No sooner were the words out than her colleagues in the Marketing Department all reacted with astonishment.
My goodness, Jiayi went on a business trip with the President.
There are so many secretaries and assistants around the President, all competent people, why would he pick a junior employee from a branch office to accompany him?
And just like that, overnight, from a nobody to a phoenix rising, she’s been transferred to headquarters! She’s so lucky.
For a moment, the looks Jiayi received from everyone were filled with doubt, speculation, envy, surprise, admiration, and jealousy.
Even Tang En’en widened her eyes in disbelief and stealthily tugged at Jiayi’s sleeve, "Did you really go on a business trip with... with the President?"
Jiayi hadn’t had the chance to explain further when Samuel spoke up again:
"Jiayi, you can report directly to headquarters tomorrow."
Although she had known she would be transferred to headquarters upon returning home, she hadn’t expected it to happen so quickly.
That man—how impatient he must be.
Indeed, Jiayi had just started to develop a rapport with her colleagues in the JJ Marketing Department. Aside from people like Qiao Mina, the other colleagues were all quite nice.
Especially Tang En’en; she really felt a bit reluctant to leave her.
But the transfer order had been given, and Jiayi could only nod her head, "Thank you, General Manager Samuel, and thank you to the group for the opportunity."
"I hope you can continue to excel at headquarters and strive to satisfy the President in every aspect," Samuel said, batting his blue eyes.
Jiayi was taken aback, why did that sentence sound so suggestive?
What does it mean to satisfy that man in ’every aspect’?
This Samuel was starting to be informal...
