Chapter 6 Serena

"I was wondering why Mr. Chen's granddaughter didn't recognize me." Serena chuckled, "Since Miss Chen knows that this is James' company and we are just employees, then please do what employees should do. Sister-in-law doesn't care about other things."

After saying that, she went straight back to her workstation and took a long while to sit down.

It turns out that James appointed Chen Yue as the president in order to protect his future fiancée.

Chenyue Venture Capital is the most active subsidiary of Jincheng Group in recent years. It has many projects that are very suitable for brushing up qualifications. As the future hostess of Jincheng Group, Chen Xiaoyu really needs to familiarize herself with the situation first.

Reason told Serena that it was best to go along with her, flatter her and give her three steps in everything. She could not teach her a lesson whether she was spoiled or willful, but Chen Xiaoyu's hostility towards her was clear on her face.

From the time she appeared till now, all her words and actions have shown one thing, that James is hers. It is not surprising that some girls who are inexperienced in the ways of the world like to show off their affection at any time, but what is strange is that they do so without regard to the occasion or the person.

She is twenty-six years old this year, not six. Even if she is innocent, she should not be so ignorant as to not know the basic ways of dealing with people, unless she does it on purpose.

But if Chen Xiaoyu wants to compete, she should compete with James's true and false scandals. Why would she compete with her? !

Serena rubbed her brows, and suddenly a thought flashed through her mind: Could it be... that she discovered something?

It's impossible. Even five years ago, when she was dating James, no one knew about it. Thanks to the feud between the Shen and Xie families, they had been in a secret relationship from the beginning.

Many things happened later, and their relationship became even deeper. Even Shen Dechang didn't know about it, so how did Chen Xiaoyu know?

Unless James told her himself.

Serena's heart sank. Could he easily tell other women about what happened between him and her?

Will not!

Even if James doesn't care about her, he cares about William and the stock price of Jincheng Group. He can't tell this to others, especially his marriage partner.

That’s right, maybe Chen Xiaoyu is the type of person who treats every woman he sees as a love rival?

Anyway, she has explained it clearly, I hope she can understand it.

Serena sighed, and then saw a cup of coffee falling from the sky. It was a fragrant hand-brewed latte. She knew who it belonged to without even looking.

"This coffee is not from the tea room."

Elliot chuckled, "Sister Serena, those third-rate stuff in the tea room are not as good as the beans I grind."

Serena picked up the coffee and took a sip, praisingly saying, "I think you are really wasting your talent in the secretarial department. Why don't you open a coffee shop, Mr. Liu? I will definitely become a VIP member and patronize you every day!"

Mr. Liu flirtatiously shook his hair and said, "This is a good suggestion. However, I haven't saved enough money yet. I will definitely buy one when I save enough money!"

Before he could continue his fantasy, Lao Zhao's roar rang out, "Elliot! Vice President Zhou has urged you, why are you still chatting!"

Elliot made a face and quickly left. Lao Zhao looked at Serena, panting, his expression slightly relaxed, "Serena, come in for a moment."

Lao Zhao is a veteran in the secretarial department. He joined the company when Chenyue was founded and has worked diligently for seven years. He has made contributions and suffered a lot. He never expected that he has been working in the secretarial department for seven years and his spirit is almost worn out. He sighed, "Serena, thank you for your hard work."

"You are so polite, leader. I should do that."

"What does Chen Xiaoyu think?"

"fine."

Old Zhao thought about the news he had just heard and knew it was not good, but he had no sympathy.

"I'm sharing some information with you. Miss Chen is the granddaughter of the mayor of the neighboring city . The unconfirmed news is that the Shen and Chen families are interested in forming a marriage alliance. You know what I mean, right?"

"Um."

"I heard that this young lady is very favored by her grandfather and has a bad temper. I feel guilty handing her over to you."

Serena laughed in her heart, but said, "That's not right, leader."

"The main thing is that you are the smartest and calmest among all the people in the secretarial department. I really don't trust you to hand it over to someone else. Serena, this Miss Chen is just here to get some experience. She will probably go back in a couple of days. Please be patient."

"I'll listen to you."

Old Zhao was quite relieved to see Serena's docile appearance. "Okay, then I won't delay your work. Oh, by the way, you said last time that you wanted to take on another project. I approved it. You can contact Manager Wang directly later. But I have to remind you that Manager Wang is a rather unconventional person. It may not be easy to be his secretary. Are you sure you want to take it?"

Serena nodded, "OK."

Old Zhao could probably guess the reason, and said with some emotion, "You have three projects on hand, and the bonus will be paid in two months, which is not a small amount of money. Why do you have to work so non-stop? What if you fail, what will happen to your mother?"

The warmth given by the leader must be promptly received. Serena showed a touched expression, "Thank you for your concern, I can hold on."

Old Zhao knew that he couldn't persuade her, so he waved his hand and asked her to leave.

Manager Wang was very happy to know that Serena had been hired. He kept praising her over the phone, but Serena listened to them without taking them to heart.

"Secretary Xie, you're here just in time. There's a drinking party tonight. You can come with me." Manager Wang paused, "Don't worry, we'll just drink tea, not alcohol."

This is a case of trying to cover up one's own guilt, Serena said.

Before going out with Manager Wang, Serena received a call from Shen Qingxiang. Unlike her, Miss Shen opened her own shop and was the boss, so she had a lot of free time.

"They are all young talents, and there are definitely no younger brothers. Don't treat this as a blind date, just treat it as having fun and making new friends. I tell you, the first step to starting a new relationship is to expand your social circle."

Serena said to her as they waited for the elevator, "Okay, I'll go."

" Eh ? You agreed so readily!" Shen Qingxiang asked curiously, "How did you figure it out?"

In fact, she has always been very clear-headed and knows very well that she will never have a new relationship in this life.

But now, she is very concerned about whether she can end her relationship with James as soon as possible. Their evil relationship has lasted for six or seven years, and it is so complicated and tangled that she can be entangled in it, but James cannot.

He is a man who escaped death and should have a future. He should find a wife of equal status and live a bright and glorious life instead of sinking in hatred.

"I've thought it through and it's still not good. Fine, I won't go."

" Hey, hey, hey , can't I just stop asking? You're sure you agreed, right?"

The elevator dinged and the door opened. Serena lowered her head and stepped into the elevator, saying, "Yes, yes, I promise."

The elevator door closed, and a cheer came from the other end of the phone, "I'm telling you, the people I found this time all have great bodies, and their chest muscles are at least 108!"

Shen Qingxiang was excited and his voice was loud, which was particularly abrupt in the closed elevator space. Serena looked aside awkwardly and suddenly felt cold from head to toe.

I didn't notice it just now, but now I realize that enemies often meet on a narrow road. The president did not take the president's exclusive elevator, but took the ordinary elevator.

James stood at the innermost part of the car, his hands in his trouser pockets, his posture lazy. He looked over a few heads at the floor numbers scrolling continuously on the electronic screen, his face expressionless, as if he heard nothing.

Serena quickly adjusted her stance and tried to keep her head down.

"Qingxiang, I still have work to do, so I'll hang up now."

After whispering the instructions, she quickly pressed the end button without waiting for Shen Qingxiang to reply. Soon they reached the first floor . James walked out of the elevator without looking around, escorted by others.

He seemed to be completely unaware of her, or maybe he did, but outside, Mr. Forrest had no reason to pay attention to Secretary Xie.

Serena's destination was the underground parking lot on the second floor below ground. She stared at James' back until the elevator door closed again.
