She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

It’s not like I haven’t been protected before.

Whether it's Xiao Ye or my godmother, as well as Wu Ling, Zhang Tingyuan, or even old lady Zhang, who I've only recently gotten to know, they all love and protect me and can't bear to see me suffer any injustice.

So I feel that I am very happy and becoming happier and happier.

But I never thought that Mr. X, whom I had never met, would protect me in this way.

If he helped me to calm the situation down because he saw my talent, and spent some money in exchange for my loyalty and dedication to him to create more value, it was a normal operation for a businessman.

But his behavior at this moment cannot be explained by this reason.

He said that if Feng Wenting targeted me again next time, he would be rude.

This is obviously a personal defense of me.

From one perspective, the competition between Feng Wenting and me is directed against me, but from another perspective, it can also be regarded as healthy competition within the team.

Maintaining healthy competition makes it easier for the team to achieve good results.

But Mr. X didn’t think so. He chose me firmly and took my feelings into consideration.

My heart was filled with emotions again, but they were complicated and changeable. I just silently swore in my heart that I would never let Mr. X down for his trust and care!

Yan Dong was startled, as if he had not expected Mr. X to say such a thing. His expression became even more embarrassed, but he quickly regained his usual composure: "I will definitely do a good job of convincing her."

Mr. X didn’t say anything else and hung up the video.

I took the documents and returned to my office with mixed feelings.

At this time, Wu Ling came into my office carrying two cups of milk tea and desserts. As soon as he entered the door, he was beaming with joy: "Great, Xuxu, I always thought you were very charming, but I didn't expect your charm to have such a wide range. Even Mr. X who is far away overseas is impressed by you!"

As soon as I heard her words, I knew she must have heard what had just happened in the conference room.

Before the meeting with Mr. X, Wu Ling received a call from a client and had to go out temporarily, so he did not attend the video conference.

"Don't make such a joke." I took the milk tea, but quickly interrupted Wu Ling and corrected her, "Mr. X is impressed by my ability, so he added some costs to me, and I will give him a bigger reward in return, that's all."

"Okay, Xuxu can say that if she insists on saying it. If she insists on describing the hero saving the beauty as a profitable investment, that's fine too. It's all fine." Wu Ling didn't refute me and just smiled.

She only needed to say one word "行", but she said a lot of "行", which clearly showed that she was deliberately speaking in a sarcastic way.

But she said it with a smile, making it impossible to be angry with her.

I didn't have any temper at all, and looked at her helplessly: "It's really not a hero saving a beautiful girl, sister, don't think too much, how could Mr. X be interested in me in that way?"

I don't mean to be sarcastic, I really don't think Mr. X has that kind of intention towards me.

The big guys have seen all kinds of beauties, and someone like me can't even get a rank.

Besides, Mr. X is not a frivolous person. It is impossible for him to have any special interest in me just because of one or two video conferences.

So I really think that he just saw my talent and hoped that I would remember his investment and work harder for him.

Wu Ling looked at me for a while, and finally sighed softly: "You, you know everything in your heart, but you just won't admit it."

I frowned, but she waved her hand: "Forget it, I understand Xuxu. There was Yan Dong before, and now there is Yuan Tianye. If Zhang Tingyuan hadn't been your brother, I think it would have been difficult. Not to mention Zhou Hanzhi who is unwilling to give up hiding in the dark. Xuxu has had enough peach blossoms, and she doesn't want to cause herself more peach blossom debts."

"Sister, stop talking." Wu Ling made me laugh.

How come she put me in her harem? I almost thought I was a scumbag.

"No more talking, Xuxu can think whatever she wants." Wu Ling opened the snack, pushed it in front of me, and whispered, "Now we can rest assured. It turns out that it was Mr. X who helped secretly. We don't have to guess. It's also good that he suppressed Feng Wenting. That girl is getting more and more powerful now. I felt something was wrong before, but I didn't expect her to be so ambitious and actually want to take your position."

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either. But if you think about it carefully, this may not be a bad thing. It means that she is striving to improve herself." I nodded and took a bite of the dessert.

Wu Ling snorted: "Strive to improve yourself? I think she is just trying to compete with you!"

"She was led astray by Lin Xixi, and now she is stuck in a dead end. But she is very smart and will figure it out one day." I smiled.

Seeing Wu Ling frowning, I added softly, "She is capable and hardworking. Our project needs her. It's not a bad thing for her to be more ambitious."

As long as it can bring us benefits.

Wu Ling understood my subtext, and she swallowed the unfinished words along with her milk tea.

But he frowned again and muttered in dissatisfaction: "Lin Xixi is a troublemaker, like a virus, infecting everyone she sees, endlessly! It's strange that Zhou Hanzhi likes this kind of thing, but why doesn't he break up with this thing?"

Suddenly Zhou Hanzhi was mentioned again, and my originally steady and regular heartbeat suddenly quickened.

I coughed lightly and said, "Being able to be together means that we love each other very much, and we are very loving. Sister, please don't always say that."

"Like a ghost, I don't believe Zhou Hanzhi is so blind that he would rather love trash than precious things." Wu Ling interrupted me without hesitation, then frowned, "Xuxu, do you think there is a possibility that Lin Xixi has some leverage over Zhou Hanzhi, so Zhou Hanzhi is forced to be with Lin Xixi and show affection to her?"

Wu Ling came back to the same idea again. She was always like this, always suspecting that there was something going on between Zhou Hanzhi and Lin Xixi.

In fact, where is the inside story?

How could someone like Zhou Hanzhi be threatened by Lin Xixi? Even if Lin Xixi had a huge handle on Zhou Hanzhi, with Madam Zhou around, what could she not handle?

If there is an inside story, then there is only one possibility, Zhou Hanzhi really likes Lin Xixi, likes her to the point of addiction, likes her to death, so he can only have her.

"Sister, that's someone else's business, we shouldn't interfere." I didn't want to say anything more.

"But I just feel that there is something wrong with these two people. Zhou Hanzhi must be with Lin Xixi out of necessity." Wu Ling was still muttering.

But something in my mind moved me: "Sister, then you broke up with Assistant Zeng, did you have no choice?"

Wu Ling paused, glanced at me quickly, and then quickly looked away: "No!"

She stood up with her milk tea in hand: "I still have a few documents to deal with, I'll go get busy first."

Haha, I guessed it right.

There must be something going on between her and Zhang Jiahao!

Feng Wenting seemed to be in a bad mood.

When I finished my work and went to the bathroom, I met Xi Ying. I comforted her and she smiled and said, "It's okay, Sister Nanxu, I didn't care at all. It was Feng Wenting who couldn't stand it and ran away again."
