Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Hey, do you guys think that Lily will be angry when she returns and sees how much Clarence dotes on Vera?”

“Nonsense. Lily has been working for Mr. He for two years. Vera is just an intern. How can she be compared to Lily?”

“But I think President He is treating Vera quite well. After all, she is very beautiful and young.”

“How else do you think she got in? I hate people like her the most. They don’t have anything to show for and only rely on their looks…”

…

Ning Yao didn’t expect that other people in the company would think of her this way.

She suddenly felt a burst of anger burning in her heart.

That’s right, she was indeed not qualified, but what right did they have to say that she entered the company by selling her looks?

She had been in the company for days and had completed all the tasks given to her by her boss. She had never made a mistake.

“Vera, what are you doing standing here? Why do you look so pale? Do you need any help?” One of the company staff saw Ning Yao standing behind the glass door for a long time and couldn’t help but ask her with concern.

It was only then that the group of gossiping people noticed Ning Yao and suddenly panicked.

However, they quickly regained their composure. Ning Yao was just an intern. Even if she heard their conversation, what could she do?

Just as they were about to return to their office, Ning Yao suddenly spoke with a voice that was not too loud but clearly delivered the message she wanted to get across.

“I heard everything you said just now. I hope I won’t hear any slander or rumors about me from now on. It was Mr. He’s decision to hire me. If you think there’s something wrong with Mr. He’s judgment, you can go talk to him.”

Ning Yao looked at those people and said, “We’re all colleagues. Shouldn’t we respect each other? If I spread rumors about you one day, wouldn’t you be angry too? The next time I hear such rumors about me, I will not hesitate to report them to Martin. I’m here to work, not to be slandered and humiliated by people.”

After that, Ning Yao left without looking back.

No one expected the new intern to be so direct.

Not long after, Martin also heard about the incident. As such, he secretly went to find Ning Yao uneasily. “You’re too impulsive. There’s always gossip wherever there are people. Just bear with it for a while. What if you provoke them in the future?”

Martin did not like to cause trouble, so as long as it did not cross his bottom line, he did not like to intensify conflicts.

But Ning Yao shook her head and said, “Martin, if I tolerated it this time, next time, they’ll only go even further. Besides, they’re not just criticizing me. They’re also tarnishing Mr. He’s image.”

Martin was a little surprised. He did not expect Ning Yao to be so thoughtful.

“Don’t worry, Martin, those people will only gossip behind my back. They won’t dare to cause me any trouble.”

Martin nodded. “You’re right. You just need to do your job well.”

As the two of them were chatting, they didn’t notice that Clarence had appeared behind them, not until the man’s deep voice rang out. “What are you two talking about?”

When he realized that it was taking Ning Yao to return to her desk, Clarence decided to step out of his office to go look for his future wife. He did not expect to find her and Martin whispering to each other.

He immediately felt upset. Even if Martin was his trusted subordinate, he did not want Ning Yao to be too close to other men.

“Nothing…,” said Ning Yao in a hurry. “We were just talking about the negotiation later.”

“If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me. There’s no need to trouble others.” Clarence looked at the two of them suspiciously, and finally said to Ning Yao, “Come.”

Ning Yao had no choice but to follow him into his office.

Then, Clarence explained the company’s background for today’s negotiation in detail to Ning Yao. He also inferred the other party’s bottom line and expectations as well as emphasized a few terms and conditions of the contract.

Ning Yao was not expecting Clarence to brief her about these details.

She was just his secretary, so there was no need for Clarence to tell her so much.

However, the things Clarence was telling her were very useful information. Clarence wasn’t like the teachers at school who only talked about case studies from books. He was talking about the real negotiation that they were about to face, and this kind of actual situation was something she urgently needed to learn.

One day, when she had started her company, these past experiences would save her a lot of trouble.
