Chapter 85: What Are You Talking About?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The assistant felt so angry that he laughed. “Hmph. Miss Bai, why do 1 need to take revenge on you? What are you talking about?”
Bai Xue fell silent. She didn’t want anyone else to know that Li Yan’s assistant had taken the blame for her. She was already humiliated when she publicly apologized to Jiang Ling’er, so if other students learned of what had actually happened, she would no longer be able to show her face in school.
Bai Xue said helplessly, “Alright, I don’t want to waste my breath on you. You should leave. You know very well if you did something. Just be careful in the future. 1 can pretend that nothing happened today.”
The assistant immediately frowned. ‘Now, you’re slandering me? 1 really don’t know what the young master sees in you.’
He hurriedly turned around and left. He still had many tasks waiting for him in the company, staying here would be a complete waste of time.
Bai Xue’s heart was filled with resentment. Since the last incident, Li Yan had been acting cold to her.
Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan looked at each other. They didn’t expect Bai Xue to slander Li Yan’s assistant in public. Li Yan had really spoiled Bai Xue to such an extent. No wonder the assistant’s words were full of sarcasm. From what they heard, it seemed like Li Yan had been neglecting Bai Xue recently.
Jiang Ling’er and Wen Nuan looked at each other and smiled meaningfully.
Wen Nuan said happily, “1 think she’s being ignored. Perhaps Li Yan will abandon her soon.”
Jiang Ling’er said, “Who knows? But seeing her like this makes me happy. I want to pop a champagne to celebrate.”
Wen Nuan said, “I’ll go with you!”
Jiang Ling’er replied, “Sure!”
After Li Yan’s assistant left, Bai Xue couldn’t concentrate on her studies anymore. After the third period, she excused herself by saying that she had scenes to film.
She took a taxi to Li Yan’s company.
Upon arriving there, she tidied up her clothes and walked straight into the company building.
When the receptionist saw Bai Xue striding directly toward the young master’s private elevator, she immediately said, “Miss Bai, please wait a moment.”
Bai Xue stopped in her tracks and said, “Hello, I’m looking for Li Yan.”
The receptionist replied, “Miss Bai, there’s an important client today. If you don’t have an appointment, you can’t go up.”
Anger surged in Bai Xue’s heart, but she kept a smile on her face. “Is this the first time you’ve seen me?”
The receptionist was embarrassed. She said politely, “It’s precisely because I’ve seen you before that I’m reminding you.”
Bai Xue asked unhappily, “So who’s this important client that Li Yan won’t even bother to see me?”
The receptionist said, “I’m not sure about the details. Our CEO is very busy today. Miss Bai, if you don’t have any important matters, please don’t disturb him.”
Bai Xue frowned. ‘Do 1 need a special reason to see my boyfriend?’
She said, “Li Yan and I have made an appointment to have lunch together.”
The receptionist said awkwardly, “Miss Bai, you don’t have an appointment today. I can’t let you in. AAr. Li told us that no one can go up without an appointment.”
Bai Xue was dissatisfied. “Even if he’s busy, he would let me know in advance or have his assistant inform me. But so far, no one has told me anything. It should be fine for me to go up, right?”
The receptionist hesitated for a moment before saying, “If you could sign here and add ‘verbal appointment’ as a note, it would help me with the documentation.”
Bai Xue was unhappy, but she still did as requested.
When the assistant saw Bai Xue, he immediately stopped her. He felt depressed. ‘Have 1 not made it clear before? You’re not supposed to be here!’ The assistant asked, “Miss Bai, why are you here?”
Bai Xue said innocently, “Am I not allowed to come over?”
She walked around the assistant and went straight to the CEO’s office.
The assistant was shocked and quickly stood in front of Bai Xue. He said awkwardly, “Miss Bai, you can’t go in now. The young master is in a meeting with a very important client.”
Bai Xue was furious, but she also didn’t want to affect Li Yan’s work. She said, “Fine, take me to the lounge.”
The assistant heaved a sigh of relief. Since Li Yan might look for him, he quickly delegated the task to someone else, saying, “Little Xiao, please bring Miss Bai to the lounge.. Remember, you must treat her well!”
