Chapter 57 My Boss is an Iceberg
Chapter 57 My Boss is an Iceberg
The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the curtains. Xie Shiyun opened her sleepy eyes, stretched, and then got up to wash.
She sat in front of her vanity, carefully applying a light makeup look. First, she applied a thin layer of foundation to make her skin appear whiter and smoother, then lightly swept on blush to add a natural rosy glow. Next, she used an eyebrow pencil to draw delicate eyebrows, then applied light eyeshadow, and finally applied a touch of vibrant lip gloss, instantly giving her a captivating radiance.
After finishing her makeup, Xie Shiyun opened her wardrobe and chose a white shirt and a pair of light blue jeans to wear. The white shirt was simple and elegant, while the light blue jeans gave her a fresh and refined look. The combination was both comfortable and stylish.
She casually draped her hair over her shoulders, the slightly curled strands swaying gently in the breeze, exuding a languid beauty.
Standing in front of the mirror, Xie Shiyun looked at his reflection and nodded in satisfaction.
Then I went out.
After Xie Shiyun left, Lin Yue came out of the room, stood at the door, and quietly watched her departing figure, her eyes revealing a hint of contemplation and worry.
Time flies, and twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye.
For the past twenty years, Lin Yue has been trying to escape certain things, but fate seems to never let her go. Those memories and emotions that were once buried deep in her heart have now resurfaced.
She knew that some things were ultimately unavoidable; no matter how much time passed, she would still have to face them. She sighed, turned, and went back to her room, her heart filled with helplessness and感慨 (a complex feeling of mixed emotions, including regret and reflection).
"I hope those two people never cross paths."
This statement seems to carry a sense of determination and resolve, yet it also conceals a deep sense of helplessness and pain.
Rewind time to many years ago—
At that time, her heart was filled with anger and hatred. The Xu family had caused her family's ruin and death, and she wanted them to pay the price! So, she meticulously planned and secretly switched the two children.
Unwilling to let her own child suffer along with her, she kept the Xu family's child by her side, subjecting her to all kinds of hardships. However, she was exceptionally strict with this child, often mistreating her. This was because every time she saw the child, it stirred up her longing for her deceased husband and her resentment towards the Xu family's callous disregard for human life.
However, the wheels of fate had already turned, and everything was beyond repair...
She is currently working as a cleaner at Wanxie Group.
Long ago, she learned that her daughter had become a highly sought-after A-list female celebrity in Yuncheng. Moreover, her daughter had debuted at this very company, so when she worked as a cleaner there, she often had the opportunity to see her. Sometimes,
Sometimes, even just seeing her from afar makes her feel incredibly satisfied and happy...
She feels very proud that her daughter has grown into a beautiful and graceful young woman.
Wanxie Group —
"Hello, I'm Xie Shiyun, the administrative assistant who's here today." Xie Shiyun greeted the receptionist with a faint smile.
The receptionist smiled back and replied softly, "Okay, please follow me." With that, she turned and led Xie Shiyun into the company building.
The two maintained a certain distance, with Xie Shiyun silently observing their surroundings. The company had a modern feel, with a simple and elegant decor that made people feel comfortable and relaxed.
Soon, they arrived at the Human Resources department. The receptionist gently knocked on the door, and a woman's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Pushing open the door, the receptionist walked in and said to the woman sitting at the desk, "Selena, she's a new employee who came to register today. I've brought her here."
The woman called Selena raised her head and looked at Xie Shiyun. She had short, neat hair and wore a white French-style shirt jumpsuit with a light-colored belt around her waist, making her look very capable.
Selena nodded slightly, a friendly smile on her face, and said to Xie Shiyun, "Welcome to our company, Ms. Xie. From now on, you are a member of our team. If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to contact me or other colleagues."
Xie Shiyun nodded gratefully and said, "Thank you, I will try my best to adapt to the new environment."
Selena stood up, walked over to Xie Shiyun, extended her hand to shake hers, and said, "Then let's familiarize ourselves with the company's rules and regulations first."
Xie Shiyun followed Selena out of the office, beginning her first day at the company...
"Your main job is as an administrative assistant, which means you'll be directly in contact with the president. Therefore, you need to be aware of all our business operations, including the president's schedule, meeting minutes for each department, meetings, and so on..."
The two walked side by side, with Selena enthusiastically introducing, "Look, this is our company's planning department. They are one of the company's core departments! They are mainly responsible for developing all kinds of brilliant planning schemes and providing innovative ideas and strategic guidance to various departments."
Then, she pointed to another office and said, "This is the marketing department. They are the bridge between the company and the outside world, responsible for developing the market, promoting products, and letting more people know about our company and brand." As the introduction progressed...
Finally, they arrived at the conference room, where a heated discussion was taking place. "This is the decision-making center. All of the company's major decisions are made here. Our main business is media, and we are responsible for discovering more new stars and producing better film and television works."
Throughout the tour, Selena was immersed in the strong work atmosphere, introducing her to the various departments and personnel of the company. Suddenly, she stopped, seemingly deep in thought.
"Sister Lina, I'd like to ask, what kind of person is our CEO?" the girl asked cautiously.
Upon hearing this question, Selena revealed a mysterious smile: "Our CEO Fu... he's an iceberg that never melts."
The girl couldn't help but shiver, but still asked curiously, "Why do you say that?"
Selena smiled and explained, "Because he always has a blank expression, which gives people a cold and serious feeling. However, as long as you work hard and don't make mistakes, he won't make things difficult for you."
The girl nodded, indicating she understood. After all, as a new employee, understanding the leader's personality and work style was crucial. And since her job was the president's administrative assistant, it meant she would be working with him quite a bit in the future. Therefore, it was essential to know what kind of person the leader was.
Finally, it stopped in front of the president's office.
Office door
"Let's go, I'll take you in."
Selena knocked on the door
"Enter."
Fu Shiyue was currently processing the documents at hand and was very busy.
"President, this is the newly recruited administrative assistant in the Human Resources Department. From now on, she will be in charge of all matters related to the President's Office."
"Oh, I see."
His expression was as cold as ever, devoid of warmth or emotion…
"I still have a lot of things to take care of on my end, you two talk." After saying that, she glanced back at Xie Shiyun, hoping she'd have good luck and wouldn't be kicked out by the CEO.
Because she knew that in the past, if any of his assistants were even slightly dissatisfied, he would kick them out on the spot and fire them.
"What's your name?" Fu Shiyue looked up at her.
"President Fu, my name is Xie Shiyun. I will work hard to repay the company in the future."
He stared at her for about five seconds, a smirk playing on his lips.
"You're different from the women who came for interviews before. Those women all wanted to use working near me as a way to get my attention, to become the CEO's wife, to make me notice them. But you're completely different; you only think about working hard and making money..."
This man is so handsome and dashing, yet the things he says can make you furious.
However, she dared not turn against him.
People have to bow their heads under the roof.
"President Fu, if people don't live to make money, then why do they live? Life is about making money and spending money. I've always known that, and that's just how it is."
She met his gaze, and their eyes locked…
