Chapter 17: 17

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Halfway through her meal, Xia Jin felt a chill on her back, as if someone was staring at her coldly.

She touched the goosebumps that had surfaced on her arm and looked around uneasily.

But she did not see anyone.

It must have been an illusion.

Xia Jin shook her head, dispelling the strange feeling in her heart.

After having lunch with Wang Ran and exchanging contact details, Xia Jin returned to the jewelry store and went back to work.

There were still no new customers in the afternoon, and the few regular customers had been snatched away by other salespeople.

In her free time, Xia Jin finished reading one-third of the book, ‘Sales Psychology’, making notes all over the book.

She seemed to have returned to the time when she was seventeen or eighteen years old, staying up late to study hard.

When it was time to leave work, Xia Jin walked out of the jewelry store.

Before going home, she walked to the sentry booth and gave the small cake in her hand to Zhang Zhu. “Brother Zhang, there’s a new cake shop on the third floor of the mall. I think it tastes good, so I bought one for you. You can take it home and give it to your children too.”

Zhang Zhu was somewhat flattered, as he accepted the cake from Xia Jin.

Although he did not know how Xia Jin found out that he had two children at home, Zhang Zhu naturally wouldn’t be unappreciative of her goodwill. He thanked her profusely immediately.

After giving him the cake, Xia Jin did not say anything else, turning around and left.

Zhang Zhu was a little confused, as he looked at the cake on the table–what was the reason for someone like Xia Jin to take the initiative to express goodwill to him?

Surely it could not be that she had taken a fancy to him, as he knew what he looked like. In addition, Xia Jin already knew that he had a wife and children.

Then, she must have wanted his help.

But what could he, a security guard standing sentry duty, do to help her?

Xia Jin returned to Qin Xuan’s house, took out the key, and opened the door.

Since the villa Qin Xuan lived in had been built some years ago, the lock was not a fingerprint lock. In addition, the door lock was even a little rusty.

After struggling to open the door, she changed her shoes and was about to take a rest when her phone rang suddenly.

She turned on her phone and was surprised to see that Gao Lan was calling her.

She had already resigned, so what could Gao Lan possibly want from her?

When the call was answered, Gao Lan exchanged a few pleasantries with her and began to complain, “Xiao Jin, can you come back? I really can’t find a secretary that Mr. Huo is satisfied with. I’ve been tormented to death these past few days…”

Gao Lan and Xia Jin entered the Huo Corporation at about the same time. As they always had a good relationship, Gao Lan was calling her time to complain about work.

Gao Lan must have been joking when she told her to come back. Xia Jin knew very well that she would never be able to return to Huo Jue’s side again.

As she loaded water onto her cup, she chuckled, “Why? Did Jian Yan get sacked?”

“Jian Yan ah, I don’t know how she angered Mr. Huo. She got fired the moment she came back last time…”

Xia Jin was dumbfounded when she heard Gao Lan’s words.

Huo Jue had been defending Jian Yan when she made a fool of herself in the mall last time.

She had thought that Jian Yan was most likely going to become Huo Jue’s lover just like her, but she did not expect her to get fired so soon.

“Then, you should hurry up and find one. I definitely can’t go back. I’m also very busy on my side. You should find a few more young and beautiful ones. Maybe Mr. Huo will be in a good mood when he looks at beauties every day and won’t bother you all day.” Xia Jin’s lips curled up. A hint of mockery flashed in her eyes as she made a somewhat malicious joke about Huo Jue.

Gao Lan let out a long sigh. “You’re still making sarcastic remarks. Sigh, you have no idea how miserable I am right now…”

After all, Gao Lan was her good friend. Xia Jin could not bear to see Gao Lan suffer too much, so she said after thinking for a while, “How about this? You can find a secretary who is quick with her hands and feet. Then, I’ll write some of Mr. Huo’s likes and dislikes into a booklet. As long as that person isn’t a fool and follows the booklet I wrote, I’m sure nothing will go wrong.”

Gao Lan was energized when she heard this. She could not contain her joy as she said, “Really? My dear, you’re really the sweetest. I love you so much…”

After Gao Lan gave Xia Jin an exaggerated kiss, she hung up the phone with joy.

Xia Jin smiled. She thought that if she gave the booklet to Gao Lan within the next two days, Huo Jue’s side should have nothing to do with her any longer.

Maybe with a capable new secretary, that despicable man would not keep finding trouble with his former secretary.

Xia Jin was about to head upstairs after taking a shower when her phone suddenly rang again.

Seeing that it was Qin Xuan calling, Xia Jin picked it up and asked, “Sister Xuan, what’s wrong?”

However, Qin Xuan’s voice did not come from the other end of the phone. Instead, there was a cacophony of glasses being smashed to the ground.

Amidst the ear-piercing sound of glass shattering, there were a few men swearing and saying something like, “B*tch… I’ll kill you…”

Xia Jin was startled. Just as she was about to open her mouth and inquire, the call was hung up.

Could it be that something had happened to Qin Xuan?

Xia Jin hesitated for two seconds before grabbing her coat and rushing out of the villa..
