Chapter 47: I Am Jing Yichen, the New President of Jingsheng

Lu Qing presented some items in detail and made a general introduction about Shangguan Ning’s daily work.

“Since you are new here, what you need to do every day is to perform some fundamental work. Also, I noticed on your CV that you have a good command of English, French and German, so you can also serve as a translator to the President. Try starting from here. You can accompany him to meet some clients this week, and be attentive so as to take meeting notes. You don’t have to go on business trips in case that happens. Someone else will be arranged for that work.”

Shangguan Ning wasn’t feeling well now. She understood that she must have got a fever. It seemed that she hadn’t thought of this complication, which broke in full fury today.

However, she ignored her physical reaction and listened to Lu Qing’s presentation attentively.

Lu Qing, in fact, had noticed that she was getting a bit pale and that she was apparently sick. Yet seeing that she wasn’t acting delicate but listening to him carefully, Lu Qing was quite pleased.

He was Jing Zhongxiu’s senior assistant. He had been on the position for more than ten years. Yet as the business affairs increased, he had also hired some other assistants who all graduated from prestigious universities. However, each of them had high expectations and chose to leave after a short while because they couldn’t tolerate spending time handling some trivial affairs.

He knew that Shangguan Ning was recruited because of Jing Zhongxiu’s personal connection. Often, such girls tended to be spoiled and lazy, arrogant and demeaning.

Luckily, Shangguan Ning seemed excellent both in qualities and ethnicities, at least she was not impetuous. That was a rare advantage among young people.

From this day on, Shangguan Ning became his student. He expected to cultivate a capable assistant for the new president.

He thought that Shangguan Ning knew about the replacement of the old president, so he didn’t talk too much about it. In his heart, he would always regard Jing Zhongxiu as the president of Jingsheng Enterprise.

He didn’t teach her much on the first day. After the general introduction, he gave her an internal document of the senior directors at Jingsheng.

“The document contains the organizational structure of the enterprise. Memorize all of them, their names, positions, appearance, interests, professions, drawbacks, all of those should be remembered so that you can deal with them when you meet them next time.”

Shangguan Ning solemnly took over the thick brochure and said lightly. “Don’t worry, I won’t leak the information.”

A smile finally hovered over Lu Qing’s face. It seemed that this girl was extremely smart. He nodded and turned around to handle his own business.

Shangguan Ning sat down at her desk given by the Enterprise and checked the President’s schedule of the day.

8:20. Shareholder meeting at Jingsheng Enterprise.

10:30. Purchase conference at Star Media.

12:00. Lunch with Ms. Ji Lili…

The shareholder meeting was on, and Star Media was an entertainment company full of celebrities, which was quite far away from Shangguan Ning.

As for Ji Lili… she knew her, and she knew her well.

Ji Lili was the daughter of Ji Minyu, the Deputy of A City, one of the successors of Family Ji.

Ji Minyu was a symbolic figure in A City. She was bossy and came from a powerful family. Her husband had divorced her because he couldn’t stand her bossiness.

Ji Lili had been fatherless since childhood. Jing Minyu, who felt guilty towards her as a mother, spoiled her to an exaggerated degree.

Ji Lili had numerous weird interests, the biggest of which was to ask good-looking people to eat meals with her.

Because of Shangguan Zheng, both Shangguan Ning and Shangguan Rouxue had once had meals with this lady. However, after one meal, she became Shangguan Ning’s enemy and Shangguan Rouxue’s best friend.

Shangguan Ning had never expected that the trillionaire of Jingsheng Enterprise needed to have lunch with Ji Lili!

Jing Zhongxiu was indeed handsome and charismatic. But he, after all, was a middle aged man, old enough to be Ji Lili’s father!

Ji Lili really had a… weird taste!

Maybe it had something to do with her lacking a father since childhood. Or maybe, it was more than a simple lunch, a cutting point of a potential collaboration between Family Jing and Family Ji.

Shangguan Ning shook her head, not wanting to think any further. She quickly memorized the President’s schedule so that she would be able to answer the President’s questions later on.

Her head already got really dizzy after she memorized the schedule.

With the radiator on, in the office, the room ought to be quite warm. Yet what she felt was increasing coldness.

Shangguan Ning realised that her fever was getting worse.

She got up, poured a cup of warm water for herself from the water machine, turned around and bumped into someone.

“I am sorry, I am sorry. I wasn’t paying attention. Did you get hurt?” She apologized constantly, looked up and got started by the person in front of her.

“Why are you here?”

Shangguan Ning got astonished and confused. But Jing Yichen ignored all questions and said expressionlessly, “Didn’t I ask you to stay at home?! Did you forget the promise?”

It took a moment before Shangguan Ning became normal. She felt that the way he was talking was quite weird, but she couldn’t describe what was weird about it.

“I mustn’t be absent on my first day of work! I am fine, but you…”

Before she could finish her words, a large hand was already placed upon her forehead, making her oblivious of everything she was about to say.

Jing Yichen stared at her coldly. Her forehead was burning and she still said that she was fine!

And she had learnt to lie! She had said that she would stay at home but instead she came to the office. He had been smart enough to catch other people’s lies, but got tricked by her!

Jing Yichen was both concerned and annoyed.

She ignored everything he had said, and tormented her body. What was he feeling concerned she herself didn’t care about herself?

The fury inside him kept rising, and his knuckles made a cracking noise. “Very well, Shangguan Ning, I haven’t been this angry in a very long time!”

Shangguan Ning had never heard him calling her by her full name. But now, it stung.

She knew that he was really angry. But what was he angry for!

It wouldn’t be fine if she didn’t come to work today. It was a rare opportunity and she mustn’t make her uncle lose face.

Shangguan Ning didn’t display a good attitude towards him either, after seeing him behave so badly.

“Move out, it is not a place where you come and go as you wish. Don’t disturb me, I am working!”

Ha, now she was daring to scold him and ask him to move out.

Jing Yichen was so angry that he almost laughed!

Alright, she was working!

He threw a cold look at this little woman who refused to even bend down her neck, and walked out without saying a word.

A minute later, the telephone on Shangguan Ning’s table rang. “Assistant Shangguan, the President is asking for you in his office.”

Shangguan Ning responded affirmatively upon hearing Lu Qing’s voice.

“Do remember to remind him of the next step of today’s schedule. Buying Star Media is an urgent matter, otherwise the price would rise tremendously again!”

Shangguan Ning nodded attentively. “Don’t worry, I will remind him.”

After hanging up the phone, she adjusted her clothes and went to the office door on which “President” was written. She knocked lightly twice.

A soft voice came from inside. “Come in!”

Shangguan Ning pushed the door opened and said smilingly, “President, you asked for me…”

Before she was able to finish her last word, she gasped in astonishment. The smile froze on her face.

“Hello, Assistant Shangguan! I am Jing Yichen, the new President of Jingsheng Enterprise. From today on, you will be my assistant. Now, please state your work!”
