Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Li Beijue Brushes Past Her
Qin Nan was right, Chi Enen returning to her position and working calmly indeed could shut some people up, at least they didn’t dare to talk nonsense in front of Chi Enen.
But what she hadn’t expected was that there were outsiders in the office level.
This outsider’s identity was no ordinary one, and where others feared to speak, she dared to.
“She’s back, she’s come back,” they’d just stepped into the office level when they heard Fatty Fish’s voice, “Miss Xie, Chi Enen is here.”
Qin Nan’s eyebrows furrowed, and sure enough, she saw the person she despised at Chi Enen’s seat.
Xie Tingting was still as ostentatiously flamboyant as ever, seemingly filling every pore with brand names. Her black long hair had, at some point, been permed and dyed to resemble the Korean-style large wavy curls, paired with the standard influencer bangs and big eyes; she was beautiful, yes, but in an utterly generic way.
With an air of arrogance, she looked towards Chi Enen and stood up, her chest proudly on display and her tiny waist barely a handful. Her chopstick-like long legs were revealed; the rest was encased in the currently popular miumiu boots. Crossing her legs, she wrapped her arms around her chest and lifted her chin, bluntly saying, “I heard you slept with the CEO of Huan Yu?”
The company had been abuzz with this topic since work began this morning.
But no one had dared to address the elephant in the room in front of Chi Enen.
Xie Tingting’s arrogant question immediately drew everyone’s attention.
Some women covered their mouths and whispered among themselves, their eyes constantly darting to Chi Enen, waiting eagerly for the drama to unfold.
Those gazes and whispers seemed like they wanted to strip someone bare!
Chi Enen clenched her fists.
Before she could speak, Qin Nan was ready to confront Xie Tingting. Quick to react, Chi Enen grabbed Qin Nan and stepped forward, placing herself in front of Qin Nan. She looked directly at Xie Tingting with contempt and asked bluntly, “Where did Miss Xie hear that from?”
Xie Tingting had disliked her from the beginning; how could she miss an opportunity to trample on someone she detested? Flicking her fingernail nonchalantly and curling the corner of her mouth, she said, “Why the act? Haven’t you been told that the company’s forum is filled with photos of you and Huan Yu’s Boss?”
She turned her head to the side, not waiting for Chi Enen’s explanation, and ordered Fatty Fish, “Director Wu, no offense, but what kind of show did you recommend to me? Luckily, I haven’t appeared on her show yet. If I had, wouldn’t my fans misunderstand that I’m in good relations with her? Being associated with such a person would ruin my image, wouldn’t it? Change her show for me; I’ll go on someone else’s.”
“You!” Qin Nan’s face turned a shade of green with anger.
Right at this moment, a sudden commotion came from behind.
“CEO.”
“It’s the CEO.”
“The directors are here too.”
The crowd that had formed a circle turned their heads for a glance, then spontaneously cleared a path.
Chi Enen followed the crowd’s gaze and instantly spotted the man who was being treated like a celebrity. His tall and imposing figure stood out among a group of men in their forties and fifties.
It was Li Beijue!
Her heartbeat involuntarily quickened.
It also brought back the memory of last night when she had called and encountered something unexpected. She bit her lower lip and mustered the courage to go and talk to him.
“Li…”
Unexpectedly, the noble and cold-faced man didn’t even glance at her and briskly walked past her—
