Chapter 393: Chapter 400 Xu Shanshan’s Trick Succeeded Again

"Why hasn’t Xiaofei come over?" Li Yifei asked during dinner. That little foodie would usually come over at the mere smell of food, so her absence today was clearly unusual.

Su Mengxin took a sip of porridge and said, "She had her flight mission this morning, so she left early. She doesn’t even know that I helped her move house yet."

Xu Shanshan had no idea that Su Mengxin had moved in, so she immediately asked curiously. Li Yifei explained a bit, and Xu Shanshan pouted and kicked Li Yifei under the table.

Li Yifei pretended not to notice and didn’t pay any attention to Xu Shanshan.

After dinner, everyone headed to the company. Recently, Li Yifei had stopped driving Su Mengxin’s Porsche because it was a bit too flashy. Instead, he drove one of the company’s cars to and from work. Su Mengxin had initially left quite a few cars, so basically, each manager could be assigned a car.

However, Xu Yingying managed the company quite strictly. Recently, she issued an order prohibiting the personal use of company cars. Even if Li Yifei needed to use a car, he had to register it in the office.

Although this seemed somewhat troublesome, it prevented a lot of wastage. It’s important to understand that maintaining vehicles is a significant expense for a company.

But Xu Yingying, being the company’s president, had some privileges. Occasionally, a car would still be used, but it was always strictly documented. The car Li Yifei drove was Xu Yingying’s.

In the past few days, Xu Yingying had even discussed purchasing a car with Li Yifei. In this regard, Xu Yingying handled the matter admirably. Even though it was his money, she always discussed any household purchases seriously with Li Yifei and never acted high-handedly because of it.

Yet, they hadn’t had time recently or chosen a suitable car, so buying one was postponed.

There weren’t many tasks at the company today. Su Mengxin fully performed the duties of a secretary, making it very comfortable for Li Yifei, the manager.

There were too many male employees in the company interested in Su Mengxin, frequently swinging by Li Yifei’s office, which annoyed him. So, he simply posted a notice at the door: anyone found entering the office without a valid work reason would have their bonus deducted. This warning suddenly made those male colleagues much more well-behaved, though it also left them rather resentful towards Li Yifei.

The Human Resources Department people fully supported Li Yifei’s action. When they went to Li Yifei’s office, it was completely legitimate: it’s totally normal for us to report work or consult issues with the manager. However, other departments didn’t have as many excuses.

Off work, Li Yifei still drove a car, but this time it was Su Mengxin’s. It was just a Mercedes-Benz 350L, priced a bit over a million, completely brand-new. After learning about Xu Yingying’s company policy, Su Mengxin didn’t say anything but secretly admired it, so she purposely got a car to make it convenient for everyone to travel.

As they watched Li Yifei and Su Mengxin leave together and get into a car, all the employees secretly wondered about the relationship between Li Yifei and Su Mengxin. They arrived at work together, left together, and worked in the same office, practically inseparable.

However, Xu Yingying also left with Li Yifei, which confused everyone. Perhaps they guessed that Su Mengxin might be some relative of President Xu, hence leaving together. At this point, Li Yifei was simply considered a driver.

As Xu Yingying had Su Mengxin with her, she wasn’t worried about what others said. At the very least, they wouldn’t imply anything about her and Li Yifei, so she left work with him.

The three of them went to pick up Xu Shanshan, who pouted as soon as she got in the car.

Li Yifei asked with a smile, "What’s wrong?"

Xu Shanshan immediately said, "Today, an expert came to the school and said that because of all the years of dancing, my foot has some injuries. If I keep going like this, it might even affect my walking in the future."

Xu Yingying was shocked to hear this and said, "How could this happen?"

Xu Shanshan turned around, her eyes a little red, and said, "The expert said that for us dancers, the most damage is done to our feet and legs. If we regularly take care of them and have frequent massages, there won’t be any problem. But I never knew before; I didn’t pay attention. Now, what do I do?"

Xu Yingying quickly said, "From now on, after you start working, go for a massage every day. I’ll sponsor it." No matter how much she scolds Shanshan, they are deeply bonded sisters. If Shanshan faced any real issues, Xu Yingying would be the first to worry.

"But going to a massage place after work is too much trouble." Xu Shanshan immediately pouted again.

At this point, it should have been Li Yifei offering to say he could give massages, but Su Mengxin beat him to it, saying, "Then I’ll hire a professional masseuse to come home every day to give you a massage."

Xu Yingying quickly said, "That would be wonderful, thank you so much, Boss Su."

Xu Shanshan was a bit dumbfounded, as the script she had planned with Li Yifei suddenly changed due to Su Mengxin’s intervention.

Li Yifei couldn’t help but smile to himself and didn’t hurry to interject, curious to see how his sister-in-law would handle the situation.

Xu Shanshan gave a slight smile to Su Mengxin and said, "Thank you, Boss Su, but having someone come to the house is too much trouble. How could I trouble you?"

Su Mengxin’s smile became even sweeter as she said, "It’s no trouble at all. Leave everything to me."

"But it’s not possible. It’s just my sister, brother-in-law, and me at home. We’re used to being casual at home. If you invite a man, I’ll be uncomfortable, and neither will my sister. If it’s a woman, my brother-in-law will be uncomfortable."

Xu Yingying frowned and said, "What’s important? What’s more important than your own health? This isn’t negotiable; we have to hire someone."

Seeing her sister get angry, Xu Shanshan appeared even more aggrieved, her eyes turning red as she said, "I’m dealing with a physical issue, and I’m not in a good mood, only to be yelled at."

Xu Yingying softened her tone immediately, "I didn’t mean to yell at you; I’m just worried about you."

"You did yell at me. You’re just bullying me," Xu Shanshan pouted like a child throwing a tantrum.

This left Xu Yingying somewhat helpless. Finally, Li Yifei timed his intervention perfectly, saying, "Actually, I know how to massage too."

Xu Yingying immediately said excitedly, "Really?"

Li Yifei, driving while speaking, said, "When I was in the army, I trained with muscles even tougher than Shanshan’s. To relieve muscle fatigue, we all learned massage techniques. Soaking feet in warm water at night and mutual massages relieved fatigue effectively."

Xu Yingying quickly said, "That’s great, Shanshan! You can let your brother-in-law give you massages from now on. You won’t have an issue, right?"

However, Xu Shanshan immediately said, "Yes, there is an issue. Even though my brother-in-law knows how to massage, he’s my brother-in-law, not my husband. How can I let him casually massage my feet? What would that look like?"

Li Yifei was left speechless. Xu Shanshan spoke with such righteousness, yet how many times had he massaged her little feet already?

Xu Yingying, unaware of the underlying story, gave her sister a disapproving look and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? He’s your brother-in-law. What’s wrong with massaging your feet? Yifei, make a statement."

Li Yifei could only comply and said, "Alright then, I’ll massage Shanshan from now on."

Xu Shanshan reluctantly agreed, and Xu Yingying sighed with relief. However, Li Yifei caught Su Mengxin’s gaze in the rearview mirror, meeting his eyes with an intriguing expression, which made him uneasy. Could this clever woman have figured everything out?
