Lin Jian never expected to be so unlucky as to run into the gorgeous woman he had flirted with last night on his very first day of work.
Although he didn’t know what she did for a living, even President Hu, who managed the company, was called “Old Hu” by her.
Besides, Old Hu seemed to be running errands for her.
Weren’t he and Liu Fei brought here by Old Hu just to help her move?
Clearly, this woman’s status was far from simple.
Therefore, he absolutely could not let her see him.
After carrying two pots of flowers to the elevator, Liu Fei walked over with a large flower pot in his arms, looking very satisfied.
He was finding Lin Jian more and more pleasing to the eye.
If nothing else, the young man’s work ethic was impeccable.
While Liu Fei had only managed to move one pot, Lin Jian had carried two and was even jogging.
He had performed so well in front of President Hu that the president had even praised him.
“Liu, keep an eye on the elevator.
I’ll move everything inside, and then we can head down together.”
“Sure.”
Liu Fei didn’t stand on ceremony.
Since Lin Jian was young and strong, he only needed to guard the elevator.
There were over a dozen pots of flowers and four large leather suitcases in total, which were likely the gorgeous woman’s belongings.
He couldn’t help but marvel; this was a five-star hotel owned by the Recovery Group, and this place had to be the legendary presidential suite.
To think that the gorgeous woman lived here—and from the looks of it, she had been staying for quite a long time.
The plump President Hu stood chuckling in the hallway, not offering to help, just watching Lin Jian hustle back and forth.
Lin Jian didn’t mind the hard work, nor did he feel tired.
His only fear was that the gorgeous woman inside would come out.
Because of this, he worked exceptionally fast, and in no time, he had transported everything into the elevator.
“Good lad.
Liu, what’s this young man’s name?”
President Hu cheerfully stepped into the elevator with Lin Jian as it began its descent.
Liu Fei quickly replied, “His name is Lin Jian, a kid from my neighbor’s family.
He used to be in a sports academy, so he’s a trained martial artist.”
“Oh, a martial artist?
No wonder.
You’re pretty good, young man.
Keep up the good work.” President Hu patted Lin Jian on the shoulder.
Being patted on the shoulder by a superior meant you had caught their favorable attention.
“Will do, President Hu.” Lin Jian grinned but kept his words to a minimum.
Although he was young and had never navigated the corporate world, he knew an age-old truth: do more, speak less.
He also understood his place perfectly.
Right now, he was just a lowly security guard; he shouldn’t let a few words of praise from a superior go to his head.
If he had any questions, he could ask Liu Fei after the work was finished.
The three rode the elevator all the way down.
Then, President Hu guarded the elevator while Lin Jian and Liu Fei loaded everything onto a box truck.
The box truck was also a vehicle used by the company’s purchasing department.
“Liu, take Lin Jian and get in the truck first.
Once President Ye comes down, we’ll follow her car together.”
“Got it.”
The cabin of the box truck could only seat three people, but President Hu seemed to be driving his own car and didn’t squeeze in with them.
Thus, Lin Jian, Liu Fei, and the driver got into the truck to wait.
Lin Jian kept his small eyes glued to the elevator entrance while casually asking, “Liu, is President Hu the boss of our company?”
“He’s the vice president in charge of logistics.”
“Oh, so he’s a vice president.
What about the person we’re helping move?
I thought I heard it’s a woman, and President Hu called her President Ye?”
“She’s the CEO of the group.
I don’t know what a CEO is exactly, but it just means she manages everything here.
It means she’s the big boss.”
“Fuck…” Lin Jian cursed inwardly.
He realized he wouldn’t be keeping this job for much longer.
However, if it didn’t last, then so be it.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to work; if the CEO fired him, Lin Jing couldn’t exactly blame him.
Having figured this out, Lin Jian relaxed.
The worst that could happen was that he’d have to leave, and he hadn’t even wanted this job in the first place.
If it hadn’t been to make his mother happy, why would he ever become a security guard?
The driver took out a cigarette and lit it for himself, without offering one to Liu Fei or Lin Jian.
Clearly, as a driver for the corporate fleet who accompanied the purchasing department, he enjoyed plenty of perks and a high salary.
In contrast, the two of them were just lowly security guards who watched the gates and the parking lot.
It was only natural that the driver looked down on them.
Feeling a bit awkward, Liu Fei took out his own pack of cigarettes and handed one to Lin Jian.
Lin Jian gave the driver a cold glare.
If it had been any other day, he would have definitely picked a fight and smacked him senseless.
Why had he been expelled from the sports academy?
Wasn’t it because he got into too many fights?
His hands would itch if he went a few days without throwing a punch.
There hadn’t been a single person at the academy who wasn’t afraid of him.
However, noticing the dangerous look in Lin Jian’s eyes, Liu Fei quickly smoothed things over.
“Lin Jian, now that you’re at the company, just focus on working hard.
It hasn’t been easy for your mother these past few years.”
Hearing Liu Fei’s words, Lin Jian slowly withdrew his icy aura.
He leisurely lit the cigarette and took a drag.
“Hey, what’s wrong with you two?” Just as they had each taken a single puff, the driver scowled at them in displeasure.
“It’s choking enough with just me smoking!
Why the hell are you two lighting up as well?
Trying to suffocate me?
Put those out immediately.”
“We’ll put them out right away, right away!” Liu Fei hurriedly stubbed his cigarette out in the ashtray.
“Are you being a fucking pain in the ass?” Lin Jian suddenly shot out a hand, grabbing the driver by the shoulder while his other hand clamped around the man’s throat!
The driver was completely stunned.
He had never encountered a situation like this before.
How could someone resort to violence over a single disagreement?
Didn’t people reason with each other?
Couldn’t they just use their words?
Why get physical?
“Lin Jian, Lin Jian, don’t be impulsive!” Sitting between the two of them, Liu Fei was terrified.
He was genuinely afraid that Lin Jian would severely injure a colleague on his very first day of work.
He knew full well how brutally ruthless Lin Jian could be.
In the Agricultural Bank District, even though they were just a widow and an orphan, absolutely no one dared to bully Lin Jing.
Everyone knew that Lin Jian was truly vicious.
Several boys his age in the neighborhood had to take a detour whenever they saw him.
HONK HONK HONK!
Just as Liu Fei was struggling to pull the two apart, the sound of a horn blared from behind them.
The driver was so frightened that his eyes turned red.
He might have been arrogant, but he had never actually been in a real fight.
“Pain in the ass.
If you dare to keep yapping, see how I’ll deal with you.” Lin Jian released him, then glared at Liu Fei.
“And you call yourself a deputy director?
Even a shitty driver looks down on you?”
Liu Fei instantly fell silent.
The driver was even quieter.
Even though Lin Jian was insulting him, he genuinely didn’t dare to utter another word.
An Audi A6 drove past from behind, flashing its hazard lights once.
Then, President Hu followed in a white BMW, rolling down his window to wave at them.
The driver hurriedly started the truck and followed.
Lin Jian no longer had the mind to bicker with the driver, knowing he was bound to run into the gorgeous woman soon.
Once she saw him, his one-day career as a security guard would undoubtedly come to an end.
If that happened, what should he do next?
