Chapter 84: Chapter 083 You are too dirty
Just the day before yesterday, while busy helping Lu Qing settle into her new home and get a license plate for the BMW, Murong Fei had been frowning in the office.
"How many days has Qin Tian not come to work?"
In the office, Murong Fei sat in her office chair, legs crossed and head held high, but her face clearly not looking too good.
On the other hand, her personal secretary, Wang Yu, stood opposite Murong Fei, folder in hand, and said, "It seems like he hasn’t come to work for three consecutive days."
"Did he take any leave?"
"It seems... no. At least for the past two days, he hasn’t taken leave."
After Wang Yu finished speaking, she saw that Murong Fei’s expression suddenly turned cold, her right palm resting on the office desk, fingers lightly tapping the surface.
"Ms. Fei, Captain Qin just has that kind of personality. You shouldn’t take it personal."
"Stop making excuses for him," Murong Fei looked up, interrupting Wang Yu’s words, and suddenly asked, "Are you very close to him?"
Wang Yu was startled and immediately reacted, quickly shaking her head: "Not at all, not at all. Captain Qin and I merely nod to each other, I hardly ever see him."
From the expression on Murong Fei’s face, Wang Yu seemed to detect a hint of jealousy, making her extremely nervous.
Indeed, Wang Yu and Qin Tian barely interacted; the only time they had really spoken was last time at Starbucks downstairs to ease the tension between Murong Fei and Qin Tian over a cup of coffee.
Might Ms. Fei have gotten wind of that?
Guilty Wang Yu suddenly became afraid—it wasn’t so much that she was afraid of Murong Fei, she greatly respected Murong Fei and considered her as an elder sister, and thus, she did not want Murong Fei to misunderstand anything.
Having heard Wang Yu’s explanation, Murong Fei did not speak further but fell silent.
Thinking of something, Wang Yu said, "Ms. Fei, aren’t you going to Beijing on a business trip? Bodyguard Wang Yong’s wife is having a baby, and he might not be able to accompany you..."
Upon hearing this, Murong Fei’s gaze shifted in her direction.
Wang Yu, plucking up her courage, met Murong Fei’s gaze and said, "I heard Captain Qin has good skills, why not let him accompany you to Beijing in the capacity of your bodyguard this time?"
"Hmph, him?"
Murong Fei’s lips curled slightly and she said, "He’s okay for dealing with hoodlums, but if it comes to real danger in the business field, with professional assassins and martial arts experts, tell me, what use could Qin Tian possibly be?"
Wang Yu uttered an "oh," seemingly unable to rebut Murong Fei’s words.
Indeed, when the Murong Group had risen years ago, Murong Bei had been targeted by many business rivals with assassination attempts, but he had always escaped unscathed. Those professional assassins, highly skilled in firearms and martial arts, made it clear that as a security team captain, Qin Tian was indeed several notches below.
"Ms. Fei, you usually do not like having bodyguards anyway, Qin Tian could serve as a driver this time around. Besides, when our founder passed away, didn’t he ask you to give Qin Tian more training? This trip to Beijing could be a great opportunity to do just that," Wang Yu earnestly suggested.
Murong Fei gazed at her for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing.
It was only in front of Wang Yu that she ever laughed so heartily.
"You!" she extended her slender jade finger towards Wang Yu, saying, "Wang Yu, do you understand me too well?"
Wang Yu also smiled and said, "Isn’t that the truth? I just think it’s a good suggestion." She bowed her head, knowing her mistress had already made up her mind.
In fact, Murong Fei indeed disliked having bodyguards. Firstly, the Murong Group had now entered a stable phase of development with virtually no business enemies; secondly, because of Murong Fei’s personal preferences, she liked the peace and was put off by too much fanfare and attention.
Thus, over the years, she only kept one bodyguard-cum-driver, Wang Yong.
...
That evening, after enjoying a homemade dinner prepared by Lu Qing at her new residence, Qin Tian leisurely returned to the Green Bamboo Forest Villa.
Just as he entered the hall, he saw Murong Fei reading a newspaper on the couch.
Her hair was tied up, dressed in a knee-length blue skirt, looking noble and elegant.
Especially her exposed fair calves caught Qin Tian’s eye, making him swallow hard, feeling as though he had not eaten enough at Lu Qing’s.
"Come here."
Murong Fei put down the newspaper in her hand, raised her head, and her eyes swept toward Qin Tian.
That look, that tone... does she need to be that cold?
Qin Tian looked at her, also smirked, and walked over, "Director Fei, what can I do for you?"
"You haven’t been to work these past few days? Why didn’t you ask for leave?"
"Uh... I forgot."
Qin Tian touched his head, there had been so much going on these days that he had completely forgotten about work, let alone asking for leave.
"I will dock your pay," Murong Fei said.
Qin Tian chuckled, "Go ahead, dock it, after all what’s mine is yours, and what’s yours is mine."
At that, Murong Fei gave him an irritated look, "How thick-skinned can you be?"
Qin Tian leaned his face closer, "Want to know how thick? Simple, just feel it."
"Nonsense."
Murong Fei rolled her eyes at him and pursed her lips, "Being at work is a serious matter. The company has rules and regulations. You can’t just come and go as you please..."
"I know, I just forgot, okay?"
"Can you let me finish?" Murong Fei glared at him again and continued, "This kind of inconsistency not only impacts your own performance but also demotivates your colleagues and could potentially affect their drive to earn their wages, have you thought about that..."
"I know, I’ll try to ask for leave next time I am held up."
"It’s not about asking for leave... "
"Ah, it can’t be that I’m not even allowed to ask for leave, can it? Director Fei, that would be way too strict."
"Would you stop interrupting!"
Being continuously interrupted, Murong Fei was annoyed, the tone of her voice grew stern as she stared at him.
As the company’s president, she always spoke with authority, and no one had dared to interrupt her before. Today, Qin Tian had broken that record a few times already.
"When I’m speaking, can you just listen and not interrupt?" Murong Fei asked.
"Then... if I don’t interrupt, where do I insert?"
Having said that, Qin Tian immediately leaped up from the couch like lightning.
Just as he had predicted, Murong Fei exploded the moment his words fell. Her face turned red, and she threw several pillows at him like cannonballs.
Dodging left and right, Qin Tian said with a grin, "Just kidding, just kidding, don’t take it so seriously."
"You... you’re too crude!"
Murong Fei breathed heavily, anger evident, and after a long while, she sat back down on the couch and said, "Sit down, don’t speak, just listen to me."
"Oh."
This time Qin Tian was very cooperative.
"You don’t have to come to work tomorrow. You..."
"Ah, are you firing me?"
"... Can you stay silent for three minutes? You talk incessantly all day, are you trying to be Tang Seng or what?"
Once again interrupted, Murong Fei was annoyed.
