462: Is it intentional?
But pushing open the closet door, Yu Waner was stunned—
She usually wore trendy styles with complex accessories when going out, so choosing a simple dress was quite a challenge for her.
After searching for a long time, she finally picked out a relatively casual long dress from a corner, but… it was a ripped dress! That's right!
It was a light-colored spaghetti strap long dress with a particularly large tear on the right knee area;
The edges were carefully stitched with various colored threads, making it look as if the tear would continue to expand. Yu Waner called this style “Light Y2K”.
It meant it had Y2K elements, but they weren't too heavy, making it suitable for daily wear and not requiring too many complex pairings.
If it were any other day, Yu Waner would definitely wear loose jeans underneath and layer a brightly colored top over it, creating a sense of depth at the ripped part and showcasing her personality.
However, thinking of where she had to go today, Yu Waner sighed.
What a sin!
Half an hour later.
At the entrance of Aoyou Tianxia Company.
The lunch break had just ended, and people were coming in and out of the offices, making the scene a bit lively.
Some had just woken up and were about to wash their faces or go to the restroom, while others were rushing back from outside for work. Some had just remembered they hadn't eaten yet and hastily gobbled down a few bites, and some had already finished their tasks and were now daydreaming at their workstations.
At this moment, an unusually eye-catching yet strangely peculiar figure appeared at the company entrance.
The woman had two low ponytails and no makeup, but it didn't detract from her beauty at all. Her clothes were very unique, yet also very simple and clean.
This girl, who caught everyone's attention, was none other than Yu Waner, who had deliberately dressed subtly at home, hoping to attract as little attention as possible!
The moment she stepped onto Aoyou Tianxia's premises, all eyes were instantly on her.
Yu Waner realized then—her attempt to be low-key this time had completely failed!
With her looks, trying to hide and be low-key was harder than ascending to heaven.
“Hello, how may I help you?”
The security guard at the entrance immediately stepped forward, stopping Yu Waner, the unfamiliar woman without an employee badge.
Logically, if Yu Waner had worked at this company for even one day, with her appearance, the security guard wouldn't possibly not recognize her.
“Uh, I'm here to see Xu Lian.”
Yu Waner paused for a moment, then quickly stated her purpose.
Her voice wasn't loud, and she kept it low, but many people were still eavesdropping.
When the colleagues nearby heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and they secretly glanced at the woman several times.
This was also Yu Waner's first time at Aoyou Tianxia, and her first time being stopped at the door.
In the past, when she went to her own company's office building, let alone checking her employee badge, people would actively lower their heads and greet her when they saw her.
Being stopped at someone else's door for the first time, this unfamiliar feeling made her quite uncomfortable.
“Looking for President Xu?”
Hearing this, the security guard scrutinized the girl in front of him.
She had looked quite demure at first, but unexpectedly, as soon as she opened her mouth, she sounded just like those women who climbed the ranks through money and connections!
She was probably deliberately putting on an act to get close to Xu Lian, right?
The security guard's heart sank.
“Are you mistaken? I'm a new employee.” Yu Waner noticed the security guard's suspicious gaze and almost laughed in exasperation.
Having been a Streamer for so many years, interacting with thousands of viewers, Yu Waner knew exactly what men were thinking when they looked at female Streamers!
The other party must have thought she had some ambiguous relationship with Xu Lian, or was a persistent suitor.
“Ah? My apologies, ma'am, I might have misunderstood. Do you have an offer letter or any documents to prove your identity?” Hearing this, the security guard actually breathed a sigh of relief!
Deep down, he didn't want to believe that such a seemingly innocent girl in front of him would be that kind of person.
“Here, Xu Lian sent me this message.”
Yu Waner handed her phone to the security guard for verification.
After confirming, the security guard quickly dialed Qin Feixu's internal number.
Only after the verification was approved did Yu Waner successfully enter Aoyou Tianxia Company.
Before she left, the security guard whispered a reminder: “And also, Miss Gu, at the company, we all call him President Xu.”
Although Yu Waner seemed easy to get along with, he always felt a kind of invisible pressure, a very unequal dynamic!
“Got it.” Yu Waner paused, waving her hand.
She hadn't expected Old Xu to have such prestige here; even a front desk security guard could reflect that.
The moment she stepped into the first-floor lobby, Yu Waner became the center of attention, with people secretly glancing at her everywhere.
However, she didn't care anymore; since she couldn't be low-key, she might as well just let herself go.
Forcibly suppressing her true self was too unbearable!
Yu Waner followed the directions and first reported to Xu Lian's office.
The elevator slowly ascended to the top floor, and the moment the doors opened, a beautiful woman with bright red lipstick and a curvy figure stood before her.
Yu Waner subtly glanced at Qin Feixu, then quickly averted her eyes.
This floor seemed to be empty except for Qin Feixu.
This indicated one thing:
Qin Feixu was very likely Xu Lian's personal assistant or private secretary!
Only this position would allow a beautiful woman to casually appear in the office area after lunch break, without carrying any documents.
It was commonly rumored that the most difficult people to deal with were those beautiful female subordinates who followed the boss.
And with just a first glance, Yu Waner had already felt the strong aura emanating from Qin Feixu!
Within three short seconds, her mind had already begun to weave a dramatic plot.
This person was probably like those in TV dramas: deeply in love with her superior for a long time, and seeing herself, a competing female, coming for an interview, she would definitely give her a hard time!
Undoubtedly, she intended to use an excuse to drive Yu Waner away, and then monopolize Xu Lian for a long time.
Watching Qin Feixu approach, Yu Waner thought it seemed more and more plausible.
Anyway, this could also be a fallback plan to escape the company!
She originally didn't want to work in such a restrictive environment; she just wanted to play games freely and easily.
When Qin Feixu was only half a step away from Yu Waner, she stopped and raised her hand.
Immediately, Yu Waner tensed up!
This was too much!
Daring to strike upon first meeting?!
Although she was fully capable of dodging, in order to create an excuse of “being hit” to gracefully resign and leave, she endured and stood still!
Her hands unconsciously clenched, and she closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to strike.
But the anticipated slap didn't fall; she only felt a soft touch on her head, which made her involuntarily open her eyes.
It turned out Qin Feixu had merely gently smoothed her slightly disheveled hair.
Qin Feixu said with a smile, “Your hair is a bit messy.”
