Although Chu Ge didn't take Lu Gang, nor his supposedly impressive brother, seriously, since Feifei kindly reminded him, he still nodded in gratitude and said, "Thank you, I'll be careful."

Feifei didn't say anything more, just smiled at Chu Ge, then turned her gaze to Mo Xiaoran, revealing a mischievous look.

"Xiaoran, today I suddenly realized how blind I, Feifei, must have been. Not only did I fail to see that our handsome Chu was hiding his talents, but I also didn't notice you could lie! Have you been charmed by our handsome Chu? Do you want me to help match you two up?"

"Feifei, you... why are you like this?" Mo Xiaoran's face turned red again.

Seeing Feifei turning her attention to him and Mo Xiaoran, Chu Ge awkwardly glanced at Mo Xiaoran, wisely deciding to slip away back to his desk.

"Oh, oh, our handsome Chu is shy! Looks like something might really happen!"

Feifei laughed triumphantly twice and stopped teasing the blushing Mo Xiaoran, happily went off to chat with someone else.

Without the annoying Lu Gang, the office atmosphere returned to its light and cheerful state, although these girls hadn't chatted enough, the short lunch break ended, and it was time to get back to work.

In the afternoon, Chu Ge continued receiving training from Mo Xiaoran. However, after the events of noon, this girl, who was already prone to blushing, blushed even more easily, even a slight eye contact with Chu Ge would make her flustered and quickly avert her gaze.

While Chu Ge was happily receiving training from Mo Xiaoran, Tong Yaqi was far from as joyful.

After distractedly completing the morning's interviews with candidates, she didn't even have the appetite to eat, took all the hired employees' resumes and interview records, sneaked back into her office, and locked the door.

The thin stack of resumes felt so heavy in her hands, even when she placed them on the table, the weight in her heart didn't lessen but increased.

"Please don't let it be him, please don't let it be him!"

Silently chanting in her heart, the usually non-religious Tong Yaqi closed her eyes and pressed her hands together, like the most devout believer, praying to every god she could think of, whether Oriental or Western, before pursing her lips and starting to go through the resumes one by one.

Every time she picked up a resume, she felt jittery, and whenever she saw a photo that wasn't that of last night's man, she would let out a small sigh of relief, but as soon as she picked up the next one, her heart would leap again.

In this torment, Tong Yaqi flipped through one, two, three sheets...

Finally, as she reached the second-to-last resume, she saw the face of the man she absolutely did not want to see, and her heart, initially lodged in her throat, sank instantly to her feet.

In fact, she already knew if that man was kept, his resume would undoubtedly be amongst the last few, but she couldn't face this, which is why she started from the top.

Holding the resume, Tong Yaqi felt a buzzing in her head, only sighing deeply after a long while, and shifted her gaze to the interview records, searching for the name Chu Ge and the department he was assigned to.

Operation Management Department!

Staring silently at these three words in the interview records, Tong Yaqi struggled for three whole hours before finally making up her mind, slamming Chu Ge's resume on her desk, and pushing open her office door.

Tap, tap, tap...

In the quiet hallway, came the brisk tapping of high heels, exuding a sense of efficiency, and soon, a woman with outstanding appearance, figure, and temperament opened the door to the Operation Management Department's office.

When the woman's silhouette appeared in the office doorway, a palpable pressure immediately filled the room, and every administrative assistant straightened up at once, swiftly shutting down any unnecessary windows on their computers, and assumed a posture of diligent work, nervously fearing being singled out for mistakes.

The woman at the door was indeed the Vice President of Tianjiao Film and Television, the Administrative Director, Tong Yaqi.

At that moment, Ji Songtao happened to be in the employee office, and when he saw Tong Yaqi's cold and haughty face, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly smiled a greeting, "Director Tong."

Tong Yaqi nodded indifferently, her gaze not lingering on Ji Songtao, and began subtly surveying the office.

Despite Tong Yaqi's indifference, Ji Songtao dared not harbor a trace of discontent, wearing a sycophantic, worldly-wise grin as he asked, "Director Tong, do you have any instructions?"

Though he was at least a department manager, compared to Tong Yaqi, he was nothing; if he made this Administrative Director unhappy, getting kicked out of the company might just be a matter of minutes.

The more lethal problem was that Director Tong's temper had never been great, and her demands on employees were also strict to the point of harshness, which made her quite challenging to deal with.

Tong Yaqi still didn't even glance at Ji Songtao as she said flatly, "It's nothing, just looking around and finding someone to help me clean the room by the way."

Ji Songtao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and just as he was about to arrange someone for Tong Yaqi, she already had her eyes on Chu Ge. Feeling flustered inside but maintaining a calm facade, he said, "You, please come out for a while."

Seeing Tong Yaqi's stance, Chu Ge knew what was coming. In fact, he had already guessed that this woman would come to talk to him, just not expecting her to be so impatient that she couldn't hold back even within a day.

Chu Ge casually nodded, responded with a smile, then left his seat and walked toward the door.

As Chu Ge followed Tong Yaqi out of the Operation Management Department's office, from Minister Ji Songtao at the top to every employee like Feifei and Mo Xiaoran below, everyone felt significantly relieved, secretly exhaling a long breath.

Ji Songtao wiped the sweat seeping from his forehead, just about to return indoors when he suddenly realized something extremely surprising. He hesitated for a moment and asked a girl beside him with an uncertain tone, "Just now... what did Director Tong say?"

The girl hesitated for a moment, replied, "She said... just looking around and by the way, finding someone to help her clean the room."

Ji Songtao shook his head, "Not that sentence."

"She also said to let Chu Ge go out for a moment."

Ji Songtao slapped his thigh, "Right! That's the one! Think carefully, what exactly did Director Tong say at the time?"

The girl was a little confused about why Ji Songtao had such a big reaction, but she dared not take his words lightly and carefully recalled. When the original words of Tong Yaqi came back to her, her pupils involuntarily contracted a bit, and she finally understood why Minister Ji Songtao was like this.

This time, even the girl was unsure if she remembered wrong, stammering, "It seems... Director Tong seemed to say, 'You, please come out for a while.'

Ji Songtao furrowed his brows, "Are you sure?"

The girl nodded, then shook her head.

Without reprimanding the girl's strange reaction, Ji Songtao turned his gaze to Feifei, who had the best memory in the office, "Feifei, did you hear clearly, did Director Tong say that just now?"

After hesitating for a moment, Feifei slowly nodded.

Ji Songtao furrowed his eyebrows even tighter, taking a sharp intake of breath, said nothing further, and returned to the office with his hands behind his back.

When Ji Songtao left, the few girls in the office continued to exchange bemused glances.

Seeing the strange reactions from everyone, a girl who had just arrived yesterday whispered in confusion, "What's wrong with everyone? Is there something strange?"

Feifei smiled bitterly, "It seems we all underestimated Chu Ge. No wonder on his first day at work, he dared to handle Lu Gang so miserably; it turns out he's got such a big background."

Regarding Feifei's words, any girl who stayed in this office for over three days showed a deep expression of agreement, while the girl who had just asked looked even more puzzled, "Feifei, why do you say that?"

Thinking of how she joked with Chu Ge at noon, Feifei couldn't help but rub her temples in annoyance and once again flashed a wry smile.

"Director Tong, no matter who she talks to, never uses respectful language, but just now, she... she actually used the phrasing 'please' toward Chu Ge. This... this is simply impossible! Even though I heard it very clearly just now, I still can't believe my ears now!"

At this point, the new girl finally understood, standing there dumbfounded with the same expression on her face as the other girls.

Feifei glanced surreptitiously at the door, then whispered again, "And also, let me ask you, even if you don't know Director Tong, just from the aura she carries, the strong presence, what would be your mood when speaking to her?"

"Don't even mention speaking face to face with her. Just when she entered the door, for some reason, I felt my heart hanging in suspense, not daring to take a big breath. If I really faced her up close, I'm afraid I wouldn't even know what to do with my hands, or be able to speak properly."

Feifei nodded, deeply agreeing, "Exactly! But did you notice that Chu Ge was not afraid at all, even smiling and chatting with Director Tong? Who would believe it if he didn't have a background?"

If Chu Ge knew that because of a polite phrase from Tong Yaqi, it had stirred up such a storm in the office, he would surely find it laughable and annoying. But now, he had arrived at Tong Yaqi's office, smiling brilliantly at the beautiful woman with whom he had a wild night.
