After following Liu Li to the secretarial department, Yin Tao finally understood why Liu Li said that the work here was not hard.
The atmosphere in the secretarial department was completely different from the rest of the Wan Corporation. Yin Tao could hear the chattering inside even before she entered.
She listened carefully, and it seemed that the main character they were discussing was Liu Li.
“I heard from Xiaojie that Vice President Liu brought a woman to the company today?”
“Yes, Secretary Zhou saw her just now. I heard that she’s quite good-looking.”
‘What do you think the relationship between that woman and Vice President Liu is?”
‘What other relationship could there be…”
Liu Li’s face turned red from fury. Just as the gossip became nastier and nastier, Liu Li pushed open the door of the secretarial department.
“Hello, Vice President Liu!”
The women who were gossiping earlier didn ‘t panic at all. When they saw Liu Li enter, they only stood up and greeted him. They remained composed, as if nothing had happened.
Yin Tao sized up the women in the secretarial department. Two of them standing in the innermost corner had heavy makeup. At this moment, they were also sizing up Yin Tao, who was standing beside Liu Li. There was also an innocent looking woman about the same age as Yin Tao who was sitting on a chair and snacking on something.
The woman standing at the front who greeted Liu Li looked a little older and more mature. She smiled politely when she met Yin Tao’s gaze.
Yin Tao quickly realized that everyone in the room had something in common. They were all good-looking and idle.
“This is Jiang Tao, an intern at the Wan Corporation. Please look out for her in the future.’
Liu Li coughed awkwardly. The woman standing at the front immediately poured a glass of warm water for Liu Li. “Don’t worry, Vice President Liu, our department has always taken care of newcomers.”
Yin Tao was stunned for a moment. She felt like a rabbit that had fallen into a fox’s den. The people in this department are no angels. In this day and age, one needed some skills to survive, good looks alone won’t cut it.
“Then let Sister He take care of you in the future. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask her directly. Else you can come to my office and look for me.” Although Liu Li was a little worried, it was better than placing Yin Tao in another department and have her make mistakes at work.
“Alright, I understand.” Yin Tao nodded at Liu Li. Looking at the woman called Sister He, she felt that her attitude towards her was still considered polite.
After Liu Li left, no one said anything else, instead they all went back to their desks.
“Can I call you Xiaojiang?’ The woman whom Liu Li called Sister He asked Yin Tao with a friendly smile.
“Of course you can.” Yin Tao didn’t act stuck up, she was polite to Sister He too.
“This will be your desk in the future. There isn’t a lot of work in our department. If someone assigns you a task, just do it. If you have nothing on hand, just come to work on time.”
Sister He brought Yin Tao to a desk by the window, where the two women with heavy makeup were standing.
“Babe, what’s your relationship with Vice President Liu?” The taller of the two women asked Yin Tao.
For a moment, Yin Tao didn’t know how to respond. She didn’t expect the person in front of her to ask her this question point blank.
“Nana, don’t scare her.” Another woman with a coquettish outfit and an exquisite figure was also very enthusiastic about Yin Tao. She deliberately explained in a low voice, “Sister, don’t misunderstand. We’re just curious because there’s no one around Vice President Liu usually. You’re not his relative, right?’
“It’s only her first day here. Can you guys exercise some restraint?” Sister He looked at the two women angrily, but she didn’t reprimand them.
“It doesn’t matter.’
Yin Tao’s words further confirmed everyone’s guess. Yin Tao was very pretty, and no one really suspected that she was Liu Li’s relative. They were just deliberately teasing her.
“Take a seat first. If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask everyone. Our department is very united.”
Sister He had wanted to give Yin Tao a few more instructions, but the phone in her pocket vibrated, so she could only quickly walk outside to answer the call.
Yin Tao noticed the calm atmosphere and realized that the people in the department had restrained themselves because of her presence.
Yin Tao looked at the woman called Nana sitting opposite her and was thinking about how to get closer to her. Coincidentally, their eyes met.
“Babe, what cosmetics are you using? Why is your face flawless and your skin so smooth?”
Yin Tao didn’t expect the other party to speak first. Although she didn’t use any special cosmetics, she couldn’t possibly say that she was blessed with good skin, so she casually named some expensive brands..
