Chapter 11 Start Over Again

  • It was obvious who the culprit was.
  • But the tricks used were simply too unscrupulous.
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao frowned but she decided to let things be and hence she wasn't angry at all.
  • Instead, she was rather happy.
  • She now had full control over how Bao's birthday party would be like.
  • The little one was so adorable that he deserved nothing but the best in the world. Therefore, she had wanted to organize a memorable birthday party for him.
  • It was fine even if the information were gone. She could do her own research.
  • It was fine even if the proposals were destroyed. She could propose another.
  • It was Bao's birthday after all. It had to be unique!
  • He Lin was totally unaware of her plans. She was furious when she saw all the torn proposals, “That wicked woman, Yan Yifei! She had nothing but her working capabilities. There was nothing good about her. Such a petty woman! How could she do this to you?”
  • “Exactly! She dug her own grave by calling the little prince bastard. She deserved this.”
  • “Furthermore, we had also put in our efforts in these proposals. How could she just destroy them in a blink of an eye?”
  • “……”
  • Everyone was equally upset and ranted too.
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao saw this and comforted them immediately, “Fret not. We can reorganize the information even if they are gone now. I have seen the data before, so we can recover at least 70% of them. However, I feel that we do not need to follow what was previously proposed. In fact, after knowing Xiao… Mr. Jin, I feel that we could make some adjustments to our original plan so that the birthday party could be better. So… I wonder if everyone is confident to work together with me on this?”
  • “Of course! We certainly are. Even if we are not, we will follow you anyway. You are in charge and we are here to help you. “
  • He Lin, who was obviously willing to help, smiled as she said this.
  • The rest agreed cheerfully too, “Xiaoxiao, we are relying on you for our bonus next month.”
  • “I have been eyeing on a bag since last month and I am depending on you for that too.”
  • “Me too, I am going to buy an engagement ring and get married soon. My happiness relies on you too.”
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief and she was motivated seeing how everyone could joke around.
  • ……
  • On the other side of the Project Department in the Manager’s Office, Yan Yifei's face was gloomy as if a thunderstorm would be coming soon.
  • Her assistant, Xiao Ai, was trembling with fear when she saw that. She dared not disturb her at all.
  • Yan Yifei threw all the documents on her table onto the floor angrily, “Jiang Xiaoxiao, you slut! How dare she… How dare she steal my project?!”
  • Yan Yifei had spent so much effort in preparing this proposal. She would definitely be awarded the Best Employee Award if her proposals went through.
  • She would then have the opportunity to go overseas for training and her career path would be smooth-sailing then.
  • Who would have expected that this beautiful dream would be destroyed by Jiang Xiaoxiao at such a critical moment?! What a slut!
  • How could Yan Yifei not be angry?
  • Xiao Ai looked at her silently and sneered. Had it not been your bad mouth, you wouldn't be in such a state.
  • Yan Yifei looked at Xiao Ai who was silent, “Are you dead? I thought were good at coming up with unscrupulous ideas, yet at such critical moment you became dumb?”
  • Xiao Ai was unhappy at her remark but she did not show it, “Manager, relax! She is merely an intern who was here for only two months. Do you really think that she has the capability to do well? Think about it, Mr. Jin’s birthday party has got to be grand! If anything goes wrong with the party, anything at all, just think about how disastrous things would be for her.
  • Even if she could pull it off, we can always tamper with some of the details. It will just take one minor mistake for her to be ruined. There is no need to fret.”
  • After listening to Xiao Ai, Yan Yifei was lost in her thoughts pondering about what she had just heard.
  • After a while, she realized that what Xiao Ai said was indeed true.
  • The two seniors from the Jin’s valued Mr. Jin so much that they would not tolerate any mistakes at the party.
  • The consequences that Jiang Xiaoxiao might have to face if she had made any mistakes would be unimaginable.
  • Just the thought of this thrilled Yan Yifei as her anger soon subsided, “Ah, indeed it looked like I overreacted. You are right, I do not have to do anything. All I have to do is to watch how Jiang Xiaoxiao tumble and fall. “
  • The two smirked. Out in the office, Jiang Xiaoxiao had already started working on the proposal as she was up to her ears with work.
  • It was already evening.
  • The rest had packed their bags and were ready to knock off, except for Jiang Xiaoxiao.
  • He Lin came over and asked, “Xiaoxiao, we are going for a movie later. Do you want to join us?”
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t even lift up her head as she replied cheerfully, “I will join you guys the next time. I still have some documents to go through.”
  • He Lin tapped her shoulder and said, “I didn’t know that you are in fact a workaholic! It’s only the first day today.”
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao explained with a smile, “I am not really a workaholic. I just wanted to finish reading these reports and tidy them up. Just a few more pages to go so it shouldn’t take long.”
  • “Ok then. You should go home soon. We shall make a move then. See you tomorrow.”
  • “See you tomorrow.”
  • After bidding He Lin goodbye, Jiang Xiaoxiao continued working on the documents.
  • As time passes, everyone in the office had left and it was already night time.
  • At around 8 o’clock at night, Jiang Xiaoxiao had a gut feeling that something had slipped her mind.
  • Before she could recall what that was, her phone rang.
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at her phone and saw an unknown number on her caller-id.
  • She picked up the call and heard Bao’s adorable childish tone, “Aunt Xiaoxiao, why are you not home yet?”
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao finally realized what she had forgotten.
  • Oh no!
  • I am supposed to meet Bao tonight. I was so buried in work that it completely slipped my mind.
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao felt guilty and apologized immediately, “I am so sorry, my dear. Aunt Xiaoxiao had forgotten the time. Are you already outside my house? Give me a while. I am coming back now. “
  • She stood up while talking to Bao as she was packing her bag and about to rush back home.
  • Suddenly, she heard another voice, “Where are you?”
  • The low hoarse voice had an elegant air to it. It was not only gentle but also pleasant to the ears.
  • It’s Jin Zhishen!
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao responded without much thoughts, “I am still in the office.”
  • Jin Zhishen replied, “Ok. Wait there.” He hung up the phone without waiting for Jiang Xiaoxiao to respond.
  • Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned and could not really figure out what did he mean.
  • Is he… Coming to pick me up personally?
