Chapter 305 Next Life, Beware?
As Yunzhi listened to Cheng Shuyan's sincere words, her grip on the rag doll tightened little by little. She gently stroked the hem of the rag doll's clothes. It was impossible for her not to be moved at all. In fact, this was indeed the first rag doll she had ever received.
In her original world, she was an orphan, so she naturally didn't have such a thing. In her previous life, when the system brought her here, the body was already an adult, and her mission was to save and redeem the gloomy second male lead. Therefore, she tried her best to appear gentle and independent, and she wouldn't show any of her girlish emotions that she shouldn't have.
At least Ye Chengyan had never thought of giving her a rag doll. But in this life, this body received what this body received, while she received something else entirely. She suppressed the stinging in her nose, looked up at Cheng Shuyan, and gave him a bright smile. "Thank you, Shuyan. I like it very much."
Cheng Shuyan was stunned for a moment when he saw the tears glistening in Yunzhi's eyes. He guessed that Yunzhi might like this gift, but he did not expect Yunzhi to be so moved. Logically speaking, she should have received countless dolls since she was a child. Why could he still feel sadness from her? Was it his imagination?
Cheng Shuyan suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and said, "I'm glad you like it."
Yunzhi continued unpacking. Her second birthday present was a little dress, her third birthday present was a mini luxury handbag... until her eighteenth birthday, when she opened it, there was a pair of beautiful crystal high heels. Yunzhi looked at the crystal high heels and almost couldn't hold back her tears. Tears welled up in her eyes and blurred her vision.
It's clear that Cheng Shuyan put his heart into it.
Just as the two were enjoying a warm moment, a knock suddenly came at the door. The abrupt knock broke the gradually warming atmosphere in the office. Yunzhi hurriedly put the gift box away and placed it aside. However, seeing that there was still a small half of the unopened gift box on her desk, she looked awkwardly at Cheng Shuyan beside her.
It was obvious that the person who came at this time was someone who was reporting to Cheng Shuyan. What was she doing here quietly unwrapping gifts while others were reporting? But thanks to the person who knocked on the door, she was scared back from her tears.
A hint of impatience flashed in Cheng Shuyan's eyes. Who was so tactless?
"Zhizhi, it's okay, you can continue."
After Cheng Shuyan finished speaking, he coldly told the people at the door to come in. He wanted to see who was so tactless.
Even though Cheng Shuyan had said that, Yunzhi was still too embarrassed to open the gifts while others were working. She neatly stacked the remaining gift boxes aside, then took out her notebook, which she had been using to make ends meet, opened it, and pretended to be working.
Out of the corner of his eye, Cheng Shuyan saw Yunzhi staring intently at the computer screen, and he couldn't help but smile. Yunzhi pretending to work was so cute.
The finance manager came in to report on her work. As soon as she entered, she felt an unpleasant gaze fall on her. The finance manager was so frightened that her back was soaked with cold sweat. No... wasn't everyone saying that President Cheng's future wife had arrived, and that President Cheng was in a good mood and it was the perfect time for a work report? How come it wasn't what she expected? President Cheng's aura was even more frightening.
Who's spreading false information here! I'll make them pay once I get away!
The finance manager subconsciously swallowed, glancing casually out of the corner of his eye. When he saw Yunzhi sitting among a pile of gift boxes, he paused for a moment. This must be the legendary future wife of President Cheng, right? Otherwise, no one would dare to be so reckless as to stay in the same office as President Cheng, this big ice block.
Since the president's wife was there, it proved that the intelligence was correct. The finance manager breathed a sigh of relief. Then, under Cheng Shuyan's terrifying gaze, she carefully gave a report on her work. After finishing, she lowered her head and prepared to wait for President Cheng's judgment.
When President Cheng pointed out three very obvious problems with a blank expression, the finance manager already felt like she was about to be fired. She even wondered if her brain had been parasitized by aliens, otherwise how could she not have noticed such obvious problems?
As he finished speaking, Cheng Shuyan's tone grew increasingly impatient, and his gaze towards the finance manager became increasingly displeased.
The finance manager sighed inwardly. It seemed that he still couldn't take shortcuts. Even if the future president's wife was here, President Cheng would show no mercy if necessary.
She thought this time would be like before, with the CEO using those subtle, non-verbal attacks to make her question her existence. But to her surprise, after pointing out the problems in her work report, CEO Cheng casually said something.
"Be more careful next time. Don't make this kind of careless mistake again. Reorganize the document you just wrote and give it to me again for a report."
Hmm... Hmm? That's it?
The surprise came so quickly that she was still a little disoriented.
The finance manager looked up at Cheng Shuyan with a surprised expression, as if silently saying, "Are you just letting me leave like this?"
Her undisguised gaze almost made Cheng Shuyan burst out laughing in exasperation. It seemed that being too gentle with these people wasn't a good idea.
If Yunzhi hadn't been there, he would have wanted to leave her with a good impression of caring for her subordinates. The work report that the finance manager brought over would have been enough to get rid of her. After working in the company for so many years, it was unacceptable that she could make such a basic mistake.
"What, is there anything else you want to say?" Cheng Shuyan raised his eyes and asked coldly. The finance manager didn't dare to say anything, and respectfully said "Yes" before quickly leaving.
The moment the door closed, the finance manager felt a sense of relief. She breathed a sigh of relief and realized that she had been so nervous that she hadn't seen the president's wife clearly. She stared at the maroon office door in front of her, wondering if President Cheng would still be so gentle if she knocked on the door again.
She imagined the scene, then shuddered and muttered to herself, "I'd better not be reckless."
She dared not provoke Mr. Cheng's ruthless methods when he was being so gentle.
[I've personally tested this. The CEO is in a great mood right now, and his future wife is in the same office as him. If you want to report something, hurry up and go. Can you believe it? I made three silly mistakes, and the CEO just casually told me to go back and rewrite them, reminding me to be more careful next time.]
[Should I be more careful next time or in the next life?]
[The CEO's wife and the CEO are in the same office? I want to go!]
[The smart ones are already in the elevator.]
