In the president's office, Mo Beichen had just entered when he made a phone call.
"What are you doing?"
Xia Weilan, who answered the call, was taken aback for a moment and said, "Didn't I tell you that I'm going to shoot a promotional video at school this weekend? What's up? Is there something wrong?"
Mo Beichen's dark eyes dimmed a bit, but he still said unhappily, "Come to Mo Ying Group now. I need an assistant."
"But I still have a few shots to get right! Isn't Secretary Xu quite capable? Why are you suddenly looking for me?" Xia Weilan said somewhat hesitantly.
"Secretary Xu is on leave." Mo Beichen said without blinking, looking at Secretary Xu standing at the door.
Hearing this, Secretary Xu didn't say a word and immediately went to write a leave note.
"Oh, then wait for me for an hour." Xia Weilan believed him without a doubt.
"Come here now." Mo Beichen said.
"But I..." Xia Weilan was about to say something more when she only heard the beeping busy tone.
"Student Weilan, are you done? The next scene is at the stadium. Let's hurry over." Li Ming had a crush on Xia Weilan, so he always stayed by her side to chat with her during the break.
"Okay." Xia Weilan thought for a while, put down her phone and walked over. She planned to finish shooting the promotional video in the best state as soon as possible and then rush to Mo Ying Group. After all, Mo Ying Group shouldn't be short of secretaries, so there probably wasn't any urgent matter.
Just like this, Xia Weilan spent another hour at school. When she finally wrapped up perfectly, she rushed towards the door.
"Student Weilan, where are you going? I'll give you a ride." Student Li Ming immediately chased after her, with a shy smile on his face.
"No need. I drove here by myself. I have something to do, so I'll leave first." Xia Weilan deliberately kept her distance and politely declined.
As soon as Xia Weilan arrived at Mo Ying Group, the receptionist directed her to take the exclusive elevator and said respectfully, "Miss Xia, the president is already waiting for you in his office."
Xia Weilan quickly got out of the elevator. She glanced around and found that, as expected, she didn't see Xu Wei, and not even a single other assistant was in sight. Xia Weilan immediately walked to Mo Beichen's office and knocked on the door.
Just as she knocked twice, the door of the office was opened from the inside, revealing Mo Beichen's extremely gloomy face. He looked down at the time on his watch and said, "You're an hour late!"
Xia Weilan said somewhat innocently, "I was..."
Before she could finish her words, Mo Beichen grabbed her wrist and dragged her towards the elevator. "We'll meet with Developer General Manager Zhang at the golf course in ten minutes. How much longer are you going to stand there!"
Hearing this, Xia Weilan immediately shut her mouth and followed Mo Beichen directly to the underground parking lot. They got in the car and drove off.
Xia Weilan felt a bit nervous. She couldn't help but keep looking at the time. When they arrived, it was already more than fifteen minutes late. Xia Weilan's heart sank. Looking at Mo Beichen's face as black as the bottom of a pot, she thought that this meeting must be very important. She was afraid that Mo Beichen would be extremely angry with her.
Mo Beichen got out of the car and walked straight inside without waiting for Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan quickly chased after him.
"General Manager Mo, General Manager Zhang has reserved the whole place in advance. You can go directly. But General Manager Zhang was delayed by something and hasn't arrived yet." The hall manager immediately led the way respectfully.
Hearing this, Xia Weilan heaved a sigh of relief. She quickly looked at Mo Beichen, only to find that he still looked unhappy, as if he wasn't affected at all by what the manager had just said.
Actually, Mo Beichen had just received a call from General Manager Zhang saying that he couldn't come temporarily. But he was already in the car at that time, so he quietly hung up the phone and still rushed over.
Mo Beichen was directly led by the manager to the golf course at the back. Xia Weilan followed behind him like a puppy.
The expanse of green grass was a bit glaring to Mo Beichen. He remembered the photo of Xia Weilan sitting very close to a boy on the playground. The veins on his forehead couldn't help but throb.
"Come here!" Mo Beichen said.
Xia Weilan immediately walked over. Not wanting to touch his sore spot, she said softly, "Husband, since General Manager Zhang hasn't come yet..."
"Take this!" Mo Beichen interrupted her and threw a golf club into her hand.
Xia Weilan looked at the club in her hand, blinked her eyes and said somewhat innocently, "I don't know how to play."
The disgust in Mo Beichen's eyes was undisguised. "You don't even know how to play golf. Do you want me to be laughed at?"
After saying that, Mo Beichen suddenly took a few steps closer. He impatiently reached out and grabbed Xia Weilan's wrist. "Raise your head. Watch carefully!"
Mo Beichen corrected her movements. His warm, big hand wrapped around hers and guided her to swing the club.
With a "bang", before Xia Weilan could react, she saw the ball in front of her draw a beautiful arc and then fall directly into the hole.
While Xia Weilan was gaping in astonishment, Mo Beichen had already stepped back and placed the club in her hand. "You continue!"
As he said this, Mo Beichen walked to the rest area beside and sat there gracefully, looking at Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan's heart skipped a beat. She gritted her teeth and tried to imitate the movements just now. She swung the club again, but the ball seemed to have a mind of its own and veered off. Xia Weilan tried a few more times, but she was always a bit powerless.
But Mo Beichen just stared at her coldly. He didn't go up to help or say a word. He just sat there silently, like an old Buddha.
Perhaps because of her annoyance, Xia Weilan started to sweat on her forehead after just a few attempts. She turned around and looked at Mo Beichen pitifully, calling him, "Husband..."
Mo Beichen remained unmoved. Just as he was thinking of making Xia Weilan continue practicing, his phone suddenly rang. It was General Manager Zhang, who had missed the appointment today, calling.
Mo Beichen paused for a moment and still answered the call. While listening to the phone, he looked at Xia Weilan walking towards him with an inexplicable look on his face.
"Okay!"
When Xia Weilan walked closer, she only heard Mo Beichen say this one word before he hung up the phone. Then she saw Mo Beichen stand up and say in a low voice, "General Manager Zhang just called and said that he had something come up suddenly and changed the place. He'll wait for us at a restaurant tonight."
Xia Weilan obviously let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't need to play golf anymore. Otherwise, with her skills, it would simply be unpresentable.
She had been practicing so hard that she almost forgot that General Manager Zhang hadn't even shown up.
In the evening, Xia Weilan, dressed in a professional suit, followed Mo Beichen to the restaurant and attended as his secretary.
So far, Mo Beichen hadn't told Xia Weilan what business they were going to discuss, so Xia Weilan just thought she was there to be a pretty face.
In the private room, General Manager Zhang was already there. He was in his forties, a bald - headed uncle, but he was dressed very decently and was very humorous when he spoke.
There was an 18 - year - old girl beside him. She was dressed very stylishly and was a third - tier little star.
