She started in spite of herself. âItâs that serious? I think itâd be better if you visited a doctor.â
The gears turned in the glamorous secretaryâs head. Turning to her, she requested, âNo, I canât go to the doctorâs. May⦠May I ask you for something?â
âWhat is it?â
Upon seeing how it was easy to trick her, the glamorous secretary became very satisfied. Making her expression pitiful, she said, âItâs like this: Young Master Ye needs to bring a secretary for his business trip to America this time. I⦠I would like to go, but if he knows that my thigh is scalded, he wonât choose me.â
Actually, she was a newbie who had only been in the company for a few months. Even according to the standards of selection, she wouldnât be considered at all.
After all, Young Master Ye was going to America to discuss a large-scale project, and he naturally needed a capable secretary to go with him.
Normally, the secretary with the most experience, the head of the Secretarial Department would be selected. However, Young Master Ye had passed a lot of work to his subordinates to complete recently, which meant the head of the Secretarial Department was very busy, and he still had a lot of important things to follow up on.
Thus, a secretary from the Secretarial Department would be selected to accompany Young Master Ye this time.
Upon getting this news, the glamorous secretary, Tian Yunxin, thought that this was a good opportunity for herself. She had to think of a way to fight for this spot.
Perhaps she could use this girl in front of her?
Tian Yunxin said to Mo Xiaomeng pleadingly, âTake it as though Iâm begging you. Can you please not tell anyone that Iâve been scalded? This is a rare opportunity to go to America, and I really want to go because itâll be a great thing for my career. Please, I beg of you.â
Mo Xiaomeng was someone who couldnât refuse someone elseâs pleading and nodded. âOf course. But⦠are you really alright?â
Tian Yunxin shook her head. âIâm really alright. Itâs not serious. Iâll just buy some medicine later and put it on.â
Even though she said this, she had been scalded quite badly, for the milk tea had been made with boiling water, and it was thus equivalent of being scalded with boiling water. It was actually really painful.
She thought hatefully about why she had been so careless as to scald herself!
She even pretended to look gratefully at Mo Xiaomeng and said, âThank you, youâre such a good person.â
However, she was scolding Mo Xiaomeng in her heart.
Mo Xiaomeng could tell that she was trying to endure the pain, for she had been scalded before as well and knew how painful it could be.
âIs there a first aid kit in the office? Do you want me to help you get it?â she asked.
Tian Yunxin replied, âThere is, but⦠you wouldnât know where it is.â
âIâll ask around. Wait here for me.â Mo Xiaomeng felt sympathetic towards her and thus wanted to help her.
Mo Xiaomeng didnât wait for Tian Yunxin to reply before exiting.
Tian Yunxin âs lips curled downwards as she looked at her retreating figure. âCheh, pretending to be a good person, huh? Disgusting!â
After more than ten minutes, Tian Yunxin got impatient, for Xiaomeng had not returned.
Finally, Mo Xiaomeng came back. She was sweating profusely as she ran in with a cream.
âI got it. They said this was good. Try it on.â
Tian Yunxin received the cream. Upon seeing that it wasnât branded, she became displeased. âHow am I supposed to use this? I donât want to use this.â
She then threw it back to her with loathing.
Mo Xiaomeng urged, âJust try it. Iâm not very familiar with this medicine, but they said that it was good.â
âI donât want it.â Tian Yunxin looked impatient as she pushed her hand away forcefully.
Mo Xiaomeng staggered and fell backwards onto the ground
