Xu Yanwan was rendered speechless. What a direct question! She really doesn’t see me as an outsider. She stared at the receptionist with vague eyes and didn’t utter a word. The receptionist even felt her head itching after being stared at in this manner. “W-Why are you looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong? I remember when you first came to Han Group, you asked me for President Han. I asked you whether you were engaged with him and you said yes.”
Xu Yanwan had a look at the receptionist to guess her motives for asking these questions. Judging from her position, she would not be so curious to know about my engagement with Han Qing unless she herself is interested in him. Otherwise, she could just be a person who loves to gossip and that’s why she’s asking me. However, no matter whatever reason the receptionist had, Xu Yanwan was reluctant to answer the former’s question.
“Just say it. Are you our President Han’s fiancée?” the receptionist asked again.
Upon hearing the receptionist’s words, Xu Yanwan slowly quirked up the corner of her lips and gazed at her indifferently. “So what if it’s true and so what if it’s not? What are you trying to do by asking me this?”
The receptionist’s eyes lit up after listening to her. “So, you admit it?”
“Did I admit it?” Xu Yanwan let out a soft laugh. “Did I admit it just now?”
“Then, are you denying it?”
“Who knows? What do you think?”
The receptionist was rendered speechless. This woman is so hard to deal with. She won’t admit nor deny it. What does she actually mean?
“My time is precious. If you have nothing else to say, I’ll leave now.” With that, Xu Yanwan walked around the receptionist and left the company.
After Xu Yanwan left, the receptionist stood there and thought about it for a long while. In the end, she just couldn’t figure it out, so she quickly returned to her seat and sent a text to the group. ‘My dear sisters, I’ve just met President Han’s fiancée again!”
‘What are you actually trying to do? You only talk about fiancées and girlfriends everyday. Can you consider our feelings for a moment?’
‘Is she really his fiancée? Are you sure?’
The receptionist wrote, ‘I’m not sure. I’ve asked her just now, but she didn’t admit or deny it. What does she mean? I don’t quite get it.’
‘She didn’t admit or deny it? Pfft, don’t you all think that this woman is from the higher ranks? Listen to me. Don’t try to ask her again. You’re just insulting yourself.’
The receptionist was rendered speechless at first before she replied, ‘What do you mean that I’m insulting myself? I think you should mind your words!’
‘Isn’t it so? You’re so stupid for asking a question like this straight away. It’s obvious from the way she talks that she is at a higher rank than you. She won’t admit nor deny it, which shows that she wants you to guess it for yourself. Don’t you think you’re insulting yourself like this?’
‘I agree with the person above me. I also think that this receptionist is a bit foolish and cowardly. Not only that, she loves to gossip a lot.’
‘Let’s not allow this gossip to burn too much, but hearing from you all, this woman seems to be from a high rank. First, she works in the company. Then, she remains quiet. What do you think she is trying to do?’
‘What else is she trying to do? There is definitely only one purpose. Do I even need to mention?’
‘You’re right. She is President Han’s fiancée, so her target is surely President Han…’
‘Then, what about President Han’s girlfriend?’
‘If the fiancée has a strong position, there’s nothing his lover can do.’
‘The one in a higher rank is making her move. Do you all want to bet on it?’
‘Bet on what?’
‘Let’s bet on when the fiancée brings down the lover.’
‘Damn! This bet seems ruthless, but I like it! How will we bet?’
A bunch of people started betting in the group. The receptionist felt dizzy after looking at all of them, and after giving it a thought, she texted them seriously, ‘I want to give my vote to President Han’s girlfriend!’
Everyone else was immediately confused.
‘Whoa, are you kidding us? You are actually siding with President Han’s girlfriend instead of his fiancée? Aren’t you the one who told us this news? Could it be that it’s fake?’
The receptionist quickly made herself clear. ‘It’s not. What I’ve said is the truth, but this is how I think of the situation. The sudden appearance of the fiancée will definitely stir things up, right? However, President Han’s girlfriend is certainly not that easy to mess with. If she is really that innocent and naive, how was she able to win our President Han’s heart? Furthermore, we have never seen him with a girlfriend before, but now, he suddenly has one and his girlfriend comes to the company every day just to look for him.’
‘You are actually making a bit sense, but… I will still vote for the fiancée. After all, I’ve always hated mistresses.’
‘Then, I’ll also vote for the fiancée since I don’t like mistresses too.’
‘I think the word ‘mistress’ is a little harsh. Since we can’t see the clear picture yet, nobody knows who is the actual lover and no one knows whether his girlfriend is the mistress or not.’
Just when everybody discussed the topic in full swing, Yan locked herself in the washroom at that moment. She secretly took out a box of pregnancy test kits and read the instructions. Erm… Since it was her first time using it, she couldn’t fully understand it. Therefore, she looked at the instructions for a long while. She was about to give it a try when a knock on the door suddenly came from outside. Knock! Knock! Knock!
She was so scared that the kit fell on the floor. “Who is it?”
“It’s me, Miss Yan!”
Yan recognized that the voice belonged to her shop assistant. Why is she knocking on my door? “What do you want?”
“Miss Yan, you’ve been in there for a long time. When are you coming out? My stomach is killing me!”
Yan remained silent. The person outside even frantically banged on the door while howling to show Yan how much pain he endured.
Meanwhile, Yan was rendered speechless by his actions, so she lowered her guard and leaned over to pick up the pregnancy test kit on the floor. The hurdles just keep on coming and coming. I think I’ll do the test when I get home. If I do it in the shop, I will definitely get a heart attack when someone knocks on the door again. Thinking about it, she stuffed everything into her bag and the person outside started wailing again, “Miss Yan, are you done yet? I really can’t hold back much longer… Can you be quicker?”
Yan felt that she was numb in her head after being pestered by his calls, so she said to him, “Alright. Alright. I’m coming out now. Just hold back for a second.” She quickly packed up her stuff before opening the door to go out.
Immediately, the person outside squeezed past her and rushed into the washroom. Then, the door was shut with a bang. If Yan had taken her time to exit, she would have been slammed by the door. She felt quite speechless, but she still needed to wipe away her sweat and left with the bag afterward.
When Yan came out, Luo Huimei stared at her with suspicion. “Didn’t you just say that you’re going to the hospital? Why are you back so soon? And why did you stay in the washroom for so long?”
Yan twitched her brows as she explained, “I had diarrhea, so I stayed in the washroom. As for why I didn’t go to the hospital, it’s because I suddenly felt better. Mom, why are you asking me this?”
