It was a face that wasn’t particularly outstanding, with ear-length short hair, and features that only seemed delicately pretty at first glance, making her appear unremarkable when she stood there.
But it was those eyes, after she looked over, she too quietly gazed back, and with that look, she unexpectedly felt a sudden "thump" in her heart!
They were very stunning eyes, amber-colored, like glazing under the light, bright and captivating at a glance.
Yet, within such star-like brilliance, she saw a trace of coldness—like a chill suddenly rising from the depths of a dark, serene pool. Once she saw it, she immediately focused her eyes and involuntarily shuddered!
"Little uncle really has strange tastes now, hasn’t he? To even recruit someone of such appearance."
Just as Yang Xueshan was looking at this woman, feeling unexplainably cold all over, the young miss of the Bai family, Bai Wei, who stood by her side, suddenly started to speak with a sneer after seeing Ye Ning.
Xiaochen hurriedly explained, "An Ning is not just any assistant; she’s in charge of our Yuzhirun."
"Yes, because she understands jade. You may not be aware that just a few days ago, there was a minor celebrity fraud case at our jewelry store. It was all thanks to her that we were able to expose the celebrity’s trickery. That’s why the third young master recruited her."
Xiaochen was indeed "forthright"—in just a few words, he blurted out the whole affair.
Ye Ning’s expression immediately worsened!
Was she stupid? After the incident, as she had to work at Yuzhirun to avoid unnecessary trouble, even Ou Mucen had his secretary find those media reporters and delete all the videos and photos of her appearing at the jewelry store that day.
Yet now, she spilled the beans without reserve. Was her brain really made of pig’s stuff?
"So, it was you that day!" Upon hearing this, Yang Xueshan, who was standing opposite her, indeed turned ashen in an instant.
No wonder she had felt a sense of familiarity in her eyes; she was actually the person she had seen in the store that day.
Recalling the unique identification technique she had observed that day, she clenched her fists tightly, took a step forward, and interrogated, "Who exactly are you?"
Ye Ning, looking at Yang Xueshan’s face filled with tension and wariness, couldn’t help but feel somewhat amused, "Manager Yang, my name is An Ning, as Xiaochen just explained. I’m a new assistant the third young master has brought in, and I haven’t even passed my probation period yet."
Yang Xueshan scrutinized her from head to toe, "If you’re just an assistant, then why did I see you wearing the NGTC uniform at the jewelry store that day? Also, I have never heard about the third young master recruiting an assistant to be in charge of Yuzhirun."
Ye Ning looked at this woman and truly lost interest in engaging with her.
First, she said she saw her at the jewelry store that day, yet that day, Longfeng asserted that they weren’t on-site, so wasn’t she contradicting herself?
Second, Ou Mucen was a leader who controlled half of the Empire; since when did it become her place to know and comment about recruiting an assistant?
With an air of mockery, Ye Ning couldn’t help but laugh, "Manager Yang, that I wouldn’t know. I’m just a newcomer. Previously, it was all ordered by the third young master. If you want to know more, you might want to ask the third young master himself."
