Chapter 732: Chapter 732: The President Was Actually Married
Zhixi had no choice but to stop in her tracks.
The girl’s face wore a polite but guarded smile, and as she stood on her high heels in front of Zhixi, she was just tall enough to look her straight in the eye.
Because of her pregnancy, Zhixi hadn’t dared to wear high heels lately, so she hadn’t been able to assert dominance over the other woman.
She sighed, “I know your president.”
The secretary spoke with a hint of pride, “There are too many people who know the president, I can’t let every one of them in, right?”
Zhixi thought about it and patiently explained, “If I can come to this floor, it must mean I have the authority, which should be enough to prove my close relationship with your president, shouldn’t it?”
The girl pursed her lips but still shook her head, “Sorry, I still can’t let you in.” The rightful source is novęlfire.net
Zhixi, out of options, reluctantly took out her phone from her coat pocket, getting ready to call He Jingyao, when Adam finally realized something was off.
“Feifei, what’s wrong?” Adam came over and asked in a grave voice.
“This lady didn’t have an appointment but insisted on waiting in the president’s office for him,” Qian Feifei complained, her voice crisp with a touch of coquettishness and dissatisfaction.
Adam frowned as he sized up Zhixi, “Miss, may I ask who you are…?”
Zhixi was taken aback for a moment.
Could it be? Even though her appearance had changed slightly, Adam couldn’t possibly not recognize her, could he?
She pulled down her coat collar, revealing the lower half of her face, “Are you Mr. Adam?”
“Yes,” Adam answered in the same cool tone, “Sorry, no matter who you are, the president is not in right now, and I can’t allow anyone into the president’s office.”
…He still hadn’t recognized her!
Zhixi felt a bit annoyed and reluctantly took out her phone, “Then it’s always possible for me to call him, right?”
“The president is currently in a board meeting, I suggest you don’t do that,” Adam said evenly.
Zhixi’s hand, dialing the phone, paused.
Annoyed, she put the phone back in her pocket, “Then I’ll wait for him at the door, that should be fine.”
Adam hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “That’s fine.”
Adam and Qian Feifei returned to their seats to continue working.
Zhixi loitered aimlessly in front of them, bored out of her mind.
When Qian Feifei brought Adam the schedule, she couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, “Assistant, do you know who this woman is?”
Adam shook his head, “You’d better not concern yourself with the president’s private matters.”
Qian Feifei’s red lips curled slightly, “I’ve only been transferred here for a week, and I’ve seen so many women trying to get close to the president… But I’ve never seen anyone with such a thick face.”
Adam glanced over at Zhixi indifferently, his voice a bit heavy, “Perhaps… this one is different. Because she looks a lot like the president’s deceased wife.”
Qian Feifei’s eyes widened in shock, “The president was married?”
Adam gave her a warning look.
Qian Feifei hurriedly covered her mouth but couldn’t help muttering to herself, “The president seems completely uninterested in women. I never imagined he’d been married…”
Thanks to her outstanding and enthusiastic work, she was fortunate to be transferred to the president’s office, becoming a member of the secretary team and being close to the president. It was impossible not to harbor some wild thoughts, but after a few days of watching countless beautiful women come and go in vain, Qian Feifei reluctantly put away the little ideas she had cherished in her heart.
But the thought that the president had indeed been with a woman before made her heart itch like a cat’s scratch.
