The CEO's Wife and First Love

Chapter 428 Love Rival

Arriving at Li Min's office door, Zhao Gang looked at Li Min's secretary. He nodded to her, and the secretary said politely, "Please come in."

Although Zhao Gang had made sufficient preparations just now, he was still a little nervous about meeting his sweetheart. He stood at the door and pulled his tie to see if it was worn properly. He cleared his throat and knocked on the door politely. At this time, Li Min's voice came from inside, "Come in."

Zhao Gang straightened his back and walked in with firm steps.

Arriving at Li Min's desk, she saw Li Min sitting there. When she saw Zhao Gang coming in, she immediately smiled and pointed to the chair in front of her desk, "Sit down."

Zhao Gang was flattered and walked over to the chair and sat down.

Today, Li Min is wearing a black sweater with a white large lapel shirt underneath. The white shirt is matched with a black wool cardigan, which makes Li Min's skin look very fair and delicate.

It is true that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Zhao Gang was stunned when he looked at Li Min. He stared at Li Min blankly. He wondered how such a beautiful woman could exist in the world. Li Min felt a little shy when she was stared at and coughed lightly.

Zhao Gang came back to his senses, his face turned red instantly, and he stammered, "Mr. Li, I came here to report to you on the progress of the project." Li Min smiled and nodded, motioning him to continue.

Zhao Gang tried to calm down and spoke clearly. During this time, he occasionally looked up at Li Min, and every time their eyes met, ripples would appear in his heart.

After he finished speaking, Li Min praised: "Well done, Zhao Gang. I knew it was right to give the task to you." Zhao Gang scratched his head embarrassedly.

Then, Li Min seemed to muster up the courage to say, "Actually, besides work, I want to talk to you about something else.

Zhao Gang's heartbeat suddenly quickened and his eyes were fixed on Li Min.

Li Min took a deep breath, "I've noticed you for a long time. There's a drive in you that attracts me, and the way you look at me... I can feel something special." Zhao Gang stood up excitedly, "Li Min, I've liked you for a long time but I never dared to say it." Li Min also stood up and walked in front of Zhao Gang. They looked at each other, and a sweet atmosphere seemed to fill the air around them.

"I'm not here to assign you a task. I want to promote you to be my chief financial officer," Li Min said and looked at Zhao Gang seriously.

It turned out that Li Min found out that the company's chief financial officer was her father Xian. In the past two years, she found some problems and wanted to replace him, but she couldn't find a suitable candidate after searching for a long time.

Not long ago, Li Min suddenly realized that there seemed to be a pair of eyes, like the twinkling stars in the night sky, always following her figure closely with an indescribable affection.

Whenever she looked back inadvertently, those eyes seemed to be cast under a spell and instantly met her gaze, as if trying to see through her appearance and see into the most secret corners of her heart.

As a thoughtful, sensitive and intelligent woman, Li Min, with her unique female intuition and keen insight, can almost conclude that this man with such deep and affectionate eyes must have some special feelings or thoughts towards her.

Perhaps it was because of the other party's undisguised attention and gaze, or perhaps it was the tenderness and attachment revealed in his eyes, which made Li Min deeply feel that a strange atmosphere was quietly spreading.

When their company held a commendation meeting that day, she saw that the winner of this year's champion was Zhao Gang, who had been in their company for less than a year. She looked at Zhao Gang in surprise. It turned out to be him.

Zhao Gang's facial features were not that great, but his height of about 1.8 meters made Li Min stunned for a moment, with his tall and straight body and masculine aura, which deeply attracted Li Min.

When Li Min told him that she was going to promote him, the joy of love that had just surged up in him was overwhelmed by the sudden work arrangement.

But soon, he regained his composure and said, "Chairman, thank you for your trust, but I want to make sure our relationship is good. I don't want our work relationship to affect the development of our relationship, and I don't want people to think that I got promoted in this way."

Li Min smiled softly, her eyes full of admiration, "I knew you were a decent person. This job was only decided based on your ability, and my feelings for you are sincere."

Zhao Gang looked at Li Min's sincerity and was touched. "Then I accept this challenge. But we also have to get along like ordinary couples, okay?"

"Of course." Li Min took a step closer and took Zhao Gang's hand. Li Min thought that as long as a man wanted to be her boyfriend or girlfriend, he would be devoted to her.

At this moment, the sunlight was shining into the room and shone on their clasped hands, as if foreshadowing their bright future, with not only sweet love but also the prospect of working together in the workplace.

From then on, Zhao Gang's career soared until he was promoted to the position of chief financial officer.

Zhao Gang lived up to Li Min's expectations and managed the company's finances very well, and there were no problems.

But there was no substantial progress in their relationship, which made Zhao Gang a little disappointed.

He observed Li Min's behavior towards Hong Liang at yesterday's welcome banquet very carefully. He thought Li Min had fallen in love with someone else. Li Min liked Hong Liang, so he had not been in a good mood towards Hong Liang from yesterday until now.

Hongliang is no pushover either. He has been working in the business world for decades, and even his little thoughts cannot escape his keen eyes.

"Zhao Gang's abilities make him an outstanding figure in our company. He won the championship as soon as he joined our sales department. He turned a sales department that was ranked last into the champion in less than a year." Li Min introduced Zhao Gang while looking at him with admiration.

"This is what I should do for the chairman and the company." Zhao Gang felt flattered when he heard Li Min praising him.

Hongliang would like to ask you not to look at me like that, and don’t be jealous of me. I really hope you can handle her, and I should thank you for that.

Then Li Min took Hong Liang to continue inspecting various departments. Through this inspection, Hong Liang had a general understanding of the specific situation of their company.

As for this so-called "inspection", in fact, Li Min just wanted to show off that he had a handsome, elegant and capable subordinate.

She deliberately took this handsome subordinate around the company with the purpose of letting other employees see him and satisfying her own little vanity.

As Li Min strode over, she saw her subordinates looking at her with envy and jealousy.

Especially the female colleagues, their eyes were fixed on him, and they kept whispering: "Wow, Sister Li is really amazing! She can recruit such a handsome subordinate!" "That's right, I wish I could have such a handsome colleague..."

Hearing these praises and envy, Li Min's heart was filled with joy.

Although she pretended to be calm on the surface, her vanity deep in her heart was expanding like a balloon that was blown up.

At this moment, she felt as if she had become the most eye-catching person in the entire company, and she walked with her head held high and her chest puffed out unconsciously.

Hongliang has no idea what arrangements Li Min will make for him. Let us wait and see.
