"No!" Yaqing blurted out.
Afternoon tea is essential to him; without it, how could he possibly stay at the company until 4 p.m.? He would have made an excuse to leave at noon.
"Humph."
Salome ignored him completely, left the office, and closed the door behind her.
Yaqing was instantly as if she had lost her soul.
He typed on the keyboard like a machine.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Yaqing habitually glanced at her watch and realized it was time for afternoon tea, but Rita was nowhere to be seen.
Life is tough, Yaqing sighed.
"Dong dong."
Hearing the knock on the door, Yaqing regained her composure, cleared her throat, and realized that most of the company's employees were new hires, so she had to maintain a CEO-like demeanor in front of them.
"Enter."
Rita remained as elegant as ever, but she gave off a thieving vibe.
"Rita!" Yaqing looked at the newcomer in surprise.
"Shh." Rita put her index finger to her lips, and with her other hand she took out a tray from behind her back, on which was laid out an exquisite afternoon tea, and even a cup of refreshing hand-ground coffee.
"Lord Yaqing, what did you do to anger Director Salome today?" Rita placed the afternoon tea on the desk one by one.
"Rita, you're so kind." Yaqing didn't hear Rita's question at all, her eyes only on the exquisite afternoon tea.
Rita shook her head.
When Rita recalled Salome storming over to her that morning, she thought she had done something wrong. But when she heard that she shouldn't prepare afternoon tea for Yaqing, she was both amused and exasperated.
At the same time, she also thought that since Salome wouldn't allow her to deliver it, wouldn't it be another opportunity to gain favor with Bianca's elders if she secretly delivered it herself?
After Yaqing finished eating, Rita, who considered herself the "perfect secretary," placed the plates on a tray and took them away. Just as she left Yaqing's office and turned a corner in the corridor, she ran into Salome.
Even Rita felt somewhat embarrassed.
Salome knew what had happened when she saw the tray in Rita's hands, and sighed, "Just spoil him."
"You guys?" Rita was puzzled, wondering where the word "you guys" came from.
"Hahaha... The sun is shining so brightly today." Shi Yu Qi Luo walked out from another corner, looking at the sky outside, and hid the snacks in her hand behind her back.
It's cloudy outside right now.
As soon as Salome finished speaking, a clap of thunder sounded, and a torrential downpour began.
"Hahaha... I've always enjoyed watching rainy scenes since I was a kid." Shigure Kira lied through her teeth.
"Ugh."
Salome sighed again.
She thought about it carefully and realized that everyone around her was obsessed with romance.
"Then what are you doing here, Salome?" Shi Yu Qiluo realized that this was not the time for reporting work. Why was Salome here? After all, this floor only had Ya Qing's office.
"Of course I am..."
Salome was speechless, but then she found a reason.
"Of course I'm here to arrest you."
Rita looked at Salome's hands behind her back with amusement, but didn't expose her.
“Oh~~” Shigure Kira was different. “Then what are you holding behind you? Let me see.”
Shigure Kira took a step forward, preparing to rush behind Salome.
Salome reacted quickly and turned her back again.
But this time, she exposed her back to Rita's view. When Rita saw Salome holding a potato chip and a Coke in her hands, she understood immediately.
Salome was just all talk and no action.
Because the office was very soundproof, Yaqing was unaware of what was happening in the hallway outside and continued typing away like a machine.
The Tianming Far East Branch is peaceful today.
Chapter 240 Yaqing and Otto clash!
While writing the plot for a web series in his office, Yaqing received a call from Otto. He was a little confused because, due to the time difference between the Far East and Central Europe, it should be late at night for Otto.
Why did Otto call him so late at night?
Yaqing was a little confused, but she still answered the phone.
"My dear CEO, I wonder what instructions you have that require me to give them so late at night?"
Otto remained vigilant towards Yaqing, seeing her as a reflection of himself, someone who knew him better than anyone.
"Yaqing, my old friend, I'm calling you so late at night so as not to interfere with your good time. I think it should be afternoon where you are, right?"
On the surface, Otto and Yaqing's conversation seemed to offer no insight or reveal any crucial clues, but upon closer examination, it became clear that neither of these two foxes had let the other off the hook.
"President, my good thing is work. My ideal is to bring the Honkai series to the big screen," Ya Qing said with a light smile.
"Hahaha, the Far East really is a great place." Otto laughed a few times. "I didn't expect that just going back for a year could change a person's mindset. The Far East is indeed good. I'm even a little worried about my little Theresa."
Otto's sarcastic tone made Yaqing frown.
"President, what exactly are you trying to say?"
Yaqing decided to cut to the chase and be direct with Otto.
“My friend, I remember saying that you deceived me.” Otto said calmly, “You didn’t tell me the whole story of Karen; you’ve been hiding something from me.”
Otto even seemed to grit his teeth by the end.
Did I hide it?
Yaqing asked the question knowing the answer already.
"You didn't?"
“Okay, then I’ll take it as if I do.” Ya Qing blurted out, “President, actually the plot of that short drama was written by Walter Yang, and has nothing to do with me personally.”
“I’m not stupid, Yaqing Shaniat.”
Otto was obviously not stupid. Walter Young had never even met Kallen, so how could he know that Kallen and Sakura were best friends, and how could he know that Kallen liked rice balls made by Sakura?
There are too many details in this short drama that Walter Young doesn't know, while on the contrary, there is only one person who knows Karen and Sakura, and that is Ya Qing.
"ok, I get it."
Yaqing was helpless.
That sense of helplessness made Otto feel as if he had truly been treated like a fool.
"Yaqing, I think we, as teachers and students, should be completely honest with each other."
"No way, I don't want to go for a bath with you like Joyce, I'm not used to it," Yaqing refused directly.
"So there's nothing to talk about?" Otto's tone suddenly turned cold, and then, as if he had grasped Yaqing's lifeline, he said casually, "The people that Fate sent to the branch office can be put on hold for now."
"you!"
Yaqing became anxious.
A hint of smugness flashed in Otto's eyes.
Fight with me?
Little fox, you're still too green.
"Heh." Ya Qing sneered.
Otto sensed something was off about the reaction and instinctively asked, "What are you laughing at?"
“It’s simple. If you don’t send anyone, I’ll just cut your part of the story short and let Otto Apocalypse die as a pure clown villain.”
Yaqing put her legs up on the desk.
"You're too ruthless," Otto said through gritted teeth.
"You're the best teacher," Yaqing said casually.
Otto compromised as expected. For him, nothing, not even Schicksal headquarters, was as important as the storyline of his tree-climbing.
Even if Ya Qing negotiated with Otto to demand that the Destiny Financial Group change its name to Shaniat, Otto would agree without hesitation.
In Otto's view, letting Ya Qing succeed him would be like finding a slave for his granddaughter. Theresa could not work, not have to worry about the board of directors, and could continue to squander funds. Why not?
"My dear CEO, I wish you a good night's sleep." Ya Qing smiled and hung up the phone, suddenly feeling motivated to write the script, and a joyful feeling welled up from within.
Meanwhile, on the other side of Earth, in Central Europe, Otto wasn't in such a good mood. In order not to disturb Karen's sleep, he deliberately went to the bathroom to make a phone call, and was even pinned down by that little fox for a while.
"hateful."
Otto was so angry he couldn't vent it, and he didn't even dare to speak loudly for fear of waking Karen.
