"No need. I'll help you sisters pour. What do you sisters like to drink?"
Her words were so sweet, calling them "sisters" and offering to pour drinks for them. Everyone liked him even more.
The group headed to the pantry.
While making tea and coffee, they kindly shared Lu Jiaying's personal information with Jiang Jingyu.
Jiang Jingyu knew of this person.
He had met Lu Jiaying before.
Everyone knew she had been adopted by their aunt, and she knew it herself.
Therefore, she always presented herself as well-behaved and quiet in front of others.
Jiang Jingyu only knew that she was a good student and didn't know her well. He never expected that after many years, upon meeting her again, she would have become the universally disliked "Abbess Miejue."
"In short, her requirements are extremely strict, even to the point of being perverse, which is why her assistants change frequently. This position is not easy. You'd best be careful. And she's very particular about cleanliness..."
As she was speaking, a colleague by the door nudged her with her foot.
"Stop talking, stop talking, the Abbess is here."
Everyone signaled Jiang Jingyu with their eyes to fend for himself, and they quickly left the pantry with their teacups.
A moment later, Lu Jiaying entered and recognized Jiang Jingyu the moment she saw him.
Combining all the advantages of her parents, she even seemed to surpass them, a testament to the Zhan family's good fortune.
"Jingyu, right? Hello, I'm Lu Jiaying."
It seemed her parents had already briefed her, and she was quite polite.
Jiang Jingyu nodded at her. "Hello. I'll be relying on you from now on."
After greeting him, Lu Jiaying bent down to get hot water. "It's no trouble, it's what I should do. You don't know how to address me, right? You can call me General Manager Lu from now on."
"President Zhan told me not to give you special treatment or reveal your identity in front of others, so I'll call you Xiao Jiang from now on."
"Xiao Jiang, have you had enough to drink? It's almost time to start work, so go to my office. I'll give you some preliminary training."
Her first sentence was quite polite, and Jiang Jingyu thought she would take care of him, but her second sentence was already all business.
No wonder everyone called her Abbess Miejue.
However, Jiang Jingyu quite liked her demeanor.
Being strict with others meant she couldn't tolerate mistakes.
As long as he kept making mistakes frequently over the next two days, the Abbess would surely be unable to stand him.
Then he could complain to Daddy and Mommy, hehe.
"I haven't drunk anything yet. The coffee has just been brewed. Can you give me a few minutes?"
He deliberately put on airs of a young master.
Lu Jiaying took a cup of plain water, heard him say that, and checked the time.
"It's fine, you can bring your coffee over as we talk. If it's not too hot, we can drink and chat."
With that, she took her teacup and left first.
Jiang Jingyu followed behind her. As she walked, he saw her perfectly fitted white professional suit. After a few steps, he seized the opportunity, stumbled, and "whoosh," poured a stream of coffee onto her lower back.
The scalding coffee flowed down Lu Jiaying's skirt and onto her leg, but she managed to endure it without shouting. She only paused slightly, frowning, and looked back.
Jiang Jingyu quickly apologized to her.
"I'm sorry, General Manager Lu, I've stained your clothes. Will this delay your work? I didn't do it on purpose."
He tried to wipe away the coffee stains with his fingers, but the more he wiped, the more it spread on the white fabric.
Lu Jiaying stopped his hand.
"No need, I know you didn't do it on purpose. Don't worry about it."
With that, she continued to walk forward.
As she walked, she said to a female employee at her desk.
"Lily, come into my office in five minutes and take this outfit to the dry cleaners. Ten minutes from now, notify everyone for a prompt meeting."
"Yes, General Manager Lu."
She had shoulder-length hair, with the ends slightly curled inward. Her hair was fluffy and neat.
Because she walked with long strides, the hair on both sides of her temples lifted slightly, and a faint, subtle fragrance wafted into Jiang Jingyu's nose.
Jiang Jingyu felt a bit defeated.
Her reaction was so calm? Could it be that she had a spare outfit?
She didn't say anything even after he spilled coffee on her clothes right after meeting her. She had a lot of tolerance.
Lu Jiaying unlocked her office with her fingerprint, placed her cup on the desk, turned, and pushed open a door in the wall.
It seemed to be a room inside. Soon, she came out carrying a black professional suit.
While talking to Jiang Jingyu, she changed her clothes in front of him.
"Time is short, so I'll get straight to the point."
"Can you still drink the coffee? If you can, drink it. If not, pour it out, get a cup of warm water, and be quick."
Uh...
She spoke without even pausing for breath, as if she were truly in a desperate hurry.
Although her figure was really good, her skin was fair, and her 26-year-old face was still firm and sculpted, it wasn't necessary to do that in front of him...
Jiang Jingyu looked out the window.
"I won't drink it anymore. Please, just say what you need to say."
She had an inner layer, and besides, Lu Jiaying was just trying to save time. She wasn't an exhibitionist.
She quickly changed her outer garment, and as she fastened her buttons, she said to him.
"The company holds a quarterly tripartite departmental leadership summary meeting and a comprehensive work report meeting once a month. Today happens to be the tripartite meeting, but since it's your first day, I don't have any special requirements for you. Just take meeting minutes for me."
"The Engineering Department has already started work. Go out the door, turn left, find the elevator, go to the 11th floor, sign my name, and pick up a computer. Quickly, we'll meet here at eight o'clock."
She spoke very fast, rattling off a lot of information. Fortunately, Jiang Jingyu was smart, or he wouldn't have remembered anything she said.
Just as she finished buttoning her top, it was time to change her skirt. It really wasn't appropriate to stay here. Jiang Jingyu placed his cup on the coffee table and turned to leave.
Following her instructions, he successfully found the Engineering Department and picked up the computer.
He checked the time; it was exactly eight o'clock.
Never mind, he'd dawdle for a few more minutes.
He stood by the elevator with the computer, watching the time tick by, intending to go down after eight-ten.
Unexpectedly, before it was even 8:02, the elevator door opened.
He looked up, and Lu Jiaying, wearing a darker shade of lipstick, stood tall and looked serious and professional as she walked out.
Seeing him standing at the door with the computer, she stopped.
"It's already time, why haven't you gone down yet?"
"Are you coming up to find me?"
"Of course. Time has already passed. I thought they were giving you a hard time. Since they're not, hurry up and go."
As they entered the elevator, Lu Jiaying started making a phone call. It was likely a client, as she spoke very politely and professionally.
A few seconds later, they returned to the Marketing Department. Jiang Jingyu followed her, and as if anticipating his arrival, she opened her hand and gave him a pre-written note.
"Turn right at the elevator, the first conference room on the left. Go start up and test the projector, have your computer ready, I'll be there shortly."
"..."
So this was how the top elites of Zhan Group worked on a daily basis?
They were so busy that he didn't even have time to cause them any trouble.
