One weekend in May, Chi Zao was working at a haunted house, dressed as a female ghost to help a friend, when a terrified little girl beat her up.
Later, the girl's older brother came to apologize.
The moment their eyes met, Chi Zao immediately blurted out three denials: "It wasn't me, I didn't do it, I'm innocent!"
Meng Ningjing raised an eyebrow and smiled. "Did I say anything?"
Chi Zao: "...?"
Wasn't he about to accuse her of secretly taking a part-time job behind the company's back?
Afraid she'd give herself away, Chi Zao didn't dare say a word. Then her boss suddenly sighed. "The company's been struggling lately. I understand if you've been thinking about other options. You've worked hard during this time."
"..."
Y-You don't have to make yourself sound so pitiful.
Feeling ashamed, since she really had considered quitting, she tried to comfort him. "Mr. Meng, don't lose heart! The company will definitely get back on its feet! If you're having any trouble, just tell me. I'll help however I can!"
Who knew Meng Ningjing would take her up on it without hesitation.
That very night, he showed up at Chi Zao's door with a suitcase, smiling faintly. "I'll be imposing on you for the next few months, Secretary Chi."
Chi Zao: "???"
A CEO who plays the victim every day x a secretary who's taken advantage of every day
