"Please wait for a moment, sir."
The receptionist could tell that Chu Feng had an extraordinary demeanor about him despite his young age. She did not know the reason Chu Feng wanted to meet their president, but she did not want to offend him.
She offered Chu Feng a cup of coffee, after which she dialed a number on the internal line. "Ms. Liu, someone is looking for the president. Yes. You should come to the lobby."
In less than ten minutes, a beautiful and voluptuous woman in her mid-twenties stepped out of the elevator. She was dressed in a low-cut top that exposed the top half of her twin peaks which jiggled conspicuously whenever she walked.
Her chin was lifted high in the air. She thought she was superior to everyone around her.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Liu!"
"Fine weather today, Ms. Liu!"
Every employee who walked past her greeted her with a fawning smile. They were very polite.
The woman's name was Liu Xuan, and she was Li Hongtu's chief secretary and confidant. Secretly, she was his illicit lover. Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Liu Xuan nodded in response to the greetings. She sized up the young man before him, taking note of his unremarkable clothes. "Are you the one who wants to meet Mr. Li? Where are you from? Do you
have an appointment?"
Chu Feng took a sip of coffee from the cup. "I'm Chu Feng from Jiangling. I don't have an appointment."
Jiangling? That means he's really a country bumpkin and not one of those sons of Yenching's wealthy families who like to keep a low profile!
Liu Xuan was very confident in her judgment. Her expression instantly turned cold, and she said, "I'm sorry, but Mr. Li is a very busy man. He won't meet anyone without an appointment. You should leave."
She waved her hand dismissively.
Chu Feng was not angry because he knew it was not surprising for big bosses to have certain rules. He said, "I'm an old acquaintance of your president. You can let him know…"
"Mr. Li has many acquaintances from all around the world. If they were to take turns to meet him, the line would stretch out of the city gates," Liu Xuan said disdainfully while checking her manicured nails. "You should make an appointment and wait for us to call you. Do you understand?"
She had seen too many wannabes trying to score a meeting with their president in the hopes of getting their big break, and she knew exactly how to deal with them.
"Alright then." Chu Feng did not bother explaining himself. He stood up and put the bullet-riddled and blood-stained jacket on the table. "Please hand this to Mr. Li when he returns. He will understand."
After that, he turned around and left.
"Bye," Liu Xuan said lazily while fiddling with her nails. She did not even look at him.
After Chu Feng left, she pointed at the receptionist and said unhappily, "Are you blind? Do you think I'm so free to entertain any random person who walks through the front door? I'm docking half your allowance for this month!"
The receptionist pouted. "I'm so sorry, Ms. Liu. I'll be more careful next time…"
The other employees began to joke around. "I guess he managed to seduce you because he looks quite handsome!"
"Tch, so what if he's handsome? Looking at his clothes, I don't think he has a hundred dollars in his wallet. Can he afford my lifestyle?"
"Heh, and he thinks that he can fool me by saying he's Mr. Li's friend!" Liu Xuan scoffed. "I've seen so many people like him."
She shot a glance at the jacket on the table. "What's that? It's filthy. Throw it away!"
A female employee picked it up while pinching her nose with her other hand. "Ugh, why do I have to deal with this?"
Then, she wiped Chu Feng's seat carefully as though his presence was a stain on the prestigious company.
At that moment, Li Hongtu stepped through the front door while flanked by a group of people.
