“Do you know each other?” Chen Ya looked at their expressions and asked in surprise.

“Yes, we are old classmates.”

Supervisor Zhou replied. He did not make things difficult for Mo Yan. He took out a folder and handed it to Mo Yan. “This is the basic information of our department. Take a good look.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Okay.” Mo Yan took the folder, her work certificate and left the office.

“Hubby, you kept looking at her just now. Do you think she’s very beautiful?” After Mo Yan left, Chen Ya fell on Zhou Shuai’s body again and said coquettishly.

If Chen Ya found out about his past with Mo Yan, she would definitely cause a huge ruckus. Zhou Shuai had a plan in his mind, he quickly replied, “No, no. Xiao Ya, you’re the most beautiful. How can a mediocre woman like her compare to you?”

“Damn it, you sweet-talker.” Chen Ya playfully and gently hit Zhou Shuai’s chest, immediately causing him to laugh.

Meanwhile, Mo Yan, who had arrived at her work station, was seriously studying the department’s information. From time to time, she would use a pen to highlight key points. After about ten minutes, the sound of high heels approached, “Deng, deng, deng”.

Mo Yan looked up and saw that it was Chen Ya, who was wearing fiery red lipstick. She greeted her, “Supervisor Chen.”

Chen Ya glanced at her from head to toe and said with a fake smile, “Mo Yan, right? It’s your first day on the job. How is it so far?”

Mo Yan knew exactly how to answer these type of questions. She smiled slightly and replied, “I think that the department is very well organized. I believe that I will adapt very quickly.”

“I see.” The corners of Chen Ya’s mouth curled up as she looked at Mo Yan’s lower body, she crossed her arms across her chest and said, “As a supervisor, I have to remind you that work is work. Don’t dress so extravagantly. Don’t wear this dress in the future, understand?”

Mo Yan lowered her head and looked at the full length black formal dress that she was wearing. She was stunned for a moment.

Such a conservative formal dress was actually dazzling in her eyes?

Seeing that Mo Yan did not say anything, Chen Ya’s face turned cold. She asked forcefully, “Why? Do you disagree with what I said?”

Her loud voice attracted the attention of the surrounding colleagues. The entire place was silent. Everyone looked at Mo Yan with a sympathetic gaze.

Mo Yan shook her head and replied in a good-natured manner, “No, you are right. I will not wear this dress again in the future.”

“That’s more like it.” Chen Ya snorted, turned around and walked away with a twist of her waist.

When the sound of high heels disappeared at the end of the corridor, the silent department became lively again. A girl wearing black-rimmed glasses who was sitting next to Mo Yan poked her head over, she said to Mo Yan, “Don’t take it to heart. She has always been so mean.”

Mo Yan smiled at her and said in a friendly manner, “I’m fine. Today is my first day at work. My name is Mo Yan. What’s yours?”

Hence, Mo Yan got to know the girl beside her who wore black-rimmed glasses, called Zhu Zhu.

“Zhu Zhu, your name is quite cute.” Mo Yan was amused and laughed lightly.

Zhu Zhu raised her eyebrows and gave her a smug look. Then she whispered, “I think that you have been marked by Supervisor Chen.”

“Why do you say that?” Mo Yan was a little puzzled. She too felt an inexplicable sense of hostility from Chen Ya. However, it was her first day at work and she did not have any enmity with Chen Ya. Why would she be like this?

“You must be confused. Chen Ya is Supervisor Zhou’s girlfriend. She is very easily jealous. As long as a girl is slightly better looking than her, she will be targeted by her. Last month, she forced a beautiful girl away.”

Zhu Zhu lowered her voice and winked at Mo Yan. “An ugly girl like me was lucky enough to stay under her radar.”

“I see. Thank you for letting me know.” Mo Yan nodded. It seemed that she had to pay more attention to her appearance at work in the future to avoid being noticed by Chen Ya.

“Hey, I also wanted to tell you...”

Just as Zhu Zhu was about to poke her head out to say something to her, a colleague walked over and said to Mo Yan, “Mo Yan, Supervisor Zhou asked you to go to his office.”

“Oh, okay.” It just so happened that Mo Yan had almost finished reading the company information folder. After tidying it up, she got up and went over.

She knocked on the door again and entered Supervisor Zhou’s office. There was only Zhou Shuai inside.

Seeing that Mo Yan had come, Zhou Shuai smiled and pointed to the sofa beside the small coffee table. “Sit down. I have something to tell you.”
