Chapter 724 - 705: Still Want to Make a Name for Himself
"Achoo!" Ji Nanming suddenly sneezed, quickly taking out a handkerchief to cover his nose and mouth.
Probably because someone was talking about him behind his back, hence the sneeze.
"Get rid of the flowers, Young Master Ji is allergic to pollen." Ed saw the office filled with vibrant white tulips and immediately instructed the secretary to remove them.
This was the third new secretary, the previous two were scared off by Ji Nanming’s strict style, and Ed was unsure how long this secretary would last.
The secretary truly didn’t know Ji Nanming was allergic to pollen, thinking flowers would make the office look more pleasant, little did she know...
She hurriedly took the vase from the desk, thinking she might end up with the same fate as these flowers...
Lou Xi watched as the secretary took the vase away, feeling sorry for her for a second.
Ji Nanming recovered from his pollen allergy, his nose still uncomfortable, he rubbed his nose with his index finger until it felt better.
"What major did you study in college?"
"Economics." Lou Xi responded to Ji Nanming’s question, "Previously, I worked as an assistant in the CEO’s office at Jia Sheng Group."
At this point, Lou Xi and Ji Nanming’s relationship was not as siblings without blood ties, but as superior and subordinate.
Ji Nanming nodded, casually took out a document from the desk and handed it to Lou Xi, "Go to the sales department later and find Allen, you’re being placed in the hotel’s sales department, but I don’t want to hear from anyone that you got in through connections. In the hotel, you’re not the Shen family’s miss or Mrs. Qin, just an ordinary employee, understood?"
Facing Ji Nanming’s sternness, Lou Xi no longer had the relaxed mindset from before, but only the diligence of a small employee.
"Yes, Mr. Ji, I understand!" Lou Xi took the document handed by Ji Nanming, "I will work hard and not disappoint Uncle Ji and mom’s expectations."
Ji Nanming’s slightly furrowed brows relaxed a bit.
"Alright, go to work, if there’s anything you’re not sure about... ask Allen." Ji Nanming originally wanted to say if there’s anything you’re unsure of, come directly to him, but thinking about the sales department’s employees going over his head to ask the CEO, it inadvertently gave Lou Xi special privileges, which wasn’t good.
"Okay." Lou Xi now had complete respect for Ji Nanming, as a subordinate has for a superior.
It made Ji Nanming feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Find time to visit Elina, she’s going back to Monaco in a couple of days." After finishing business matters, Ji Nanming talked to Lou Xi about personal matters.
"Huh? Why didn’t she mention it?"
"She probably feels a bit embarrassed to come to you, make sure to call her." Ji Nanming didn’t say it directly.
"Why would she feel embarrassed?" Lou Xi genuinely didn’t understand why Shen Youran would feel embarrassed.
But when Lou Xi wanted to ask further, Ji Nanming didn’t give a clear answer, leaving Lou Xi puzzled.
The door of Ji Nanming’s office suddenly knocked, and Lou Xi stopped talking with Ji Nanming, said she’d go to the sales department to find Allen, and then left the office.
Regarding working at Ji Mushen’s hotel, Lou Xi was full of enthusiasm.
Given her current status as Qin Mobai’s wife, finding a job where people treat her normally was difficult, but at this hotel, she could at least work in peace, without feeling everyone was giving her special treatment.
Besides wanting to be a good wife to Qin Mobai, Lou Xi also wanted to have her own achievements.
