"Of course, I know what I can aim for, but I’m afraid Miss Zhang doesn’t know her own weight?"

Yang Qin looked at her, smiling professionally as she talked.

"You..."

"I have work to do, need to leave for now!"

Yang Qin saw her face flush with anger, yet there was nothing more to say, so she nodded in politeness and left.

Zhang Hongyun stood in the restroom watching Yang Qin leave, feeling a chill and dryness in her heart, wondering how a mere new secretary dared to look down on her?

Since coming to Rongcheng, Zhang Hongyun was repeatedly struck down but grew more tenacious, washing her hands before turning and heading back to the private room.

For her, today’s embarrassment was for tomorrow’s elevation.

When she returned to the private room, three men were exchanging pleasantries, though one seemed to have had several drinks already. Her boss’s face was flushed, and Zhang Hongyun felt uneasy but maintained composure as she sat beside him.

"Where did you go that you’re only coming back now? Secretary Yang has been back for quite some time, hurry, fill up the bosses’ glasses!"

Boss Cong seemed to be looking at her, but he couldn’t see clearly, his anger clouding his judgment, using Zhang Hongyun to vent.

"Alright!"

Zhang Hongyun agreed, quickly going to fetch the drinks.

"Old Cong, that’s not right, speak gently to young girls, Miss Zhang might as well sit with me, I’m much gentler than Old Cong."

The man next to Boss Cong said.

"No matter how good you are, I’m sure you’re not better than my boss!"

Zhang Hongyun smiled as she spoke, then went to pour him a drink.

Boss Cong was pleased by this, glancing at Zhang Hongyun with a look that seemed to say if he didn’t sleep with her tonight, he might as well write his name backward.

"What do you think Miss Zhang is, someone to stoop so low?"

Mu Yichen’s associate chimed in.

When Zhang Hongyun went to pour the drink for that boss, he lightly touched her bottom, she instinctively tensed, but the boss lingered, Mu Yichen was frowning, looking at his phone for quite some time, finally showing signs of movement.

"Apologies everyone, my wife has a situation, I must excuse myself. As for the partnership, discuss among yourselves and find me later!"

Mu Yichen spoke, glancing at Yang Qin beside him, Yang Qin stood up with him to leave, just as the boss couldn’t resist pressing Zhang Hongyun onto his lap, seeing Mu Yichen leave, he let go quickly to escort.

"Bosses, please stay!"

Yang Qin suddenly turned at the door, not allowing them to follow.

The reason Yang Qin and Mu Yichen didn’t give them a chance to hold them back—Yang Qin, as a woman who’s worked as a secretary for years, matched Mu Yichen perfectly, much like Xi Meng.

Mu Yichen parted ways with Yang Qin at the hotel entrance, driving off on his own.

Tan Yiwen’s BMW happened to stop at the hotel entrance then, with Fan Qing parking and tossing the keys to the doorman, stepping in boldly together.

Once inside, Tan Yiwen called Zhang Hongyun, but at that moment Zhang Hongyun was sitting on Boss Cong’s lap.

"I do what my boss asks of me, you all aren’t included!"

Zhang Hongyun chose to protect herself, and the method was her boss, Cong.

Boss Cong was pleased, inspiration suddenly hit him, thinking that Mu Yichen still hadn’t decided whom to sign with, as long as it’s unsettled, he had a chance, while Zhang Hongyun continued to flatter him, making him feel more confident that Mu Yichen would renew the contract with him, he happily shielded Zhang Hongyun while continuing to socialize with the other two bosses.

Fan Qing asked at the service desk, but they said no lady named Zhang had booked there, Fan Qing looked tensely at the man beside him, Tan Yiwen frowned, almost knocking on the private room doors one by one.

As they pondered finding Zhang Hongyun outside the hotel, they saw her embraced by an old man, emerging from inside, alongside two other men, all appearing quite drunk.

"Oh, you’re quite drunk!"

Embraced tightly, Zhang Hongyun felt uneasy, not daring to struggle, whispered to Boss Cong.

"Yes, yes, I’m very drunk!"

Boss Cong spoke happily.

The two bosses parted at the door, saying, "As Boss Cong is drunk, maybe you should stay upstairs, we’ll be on our way."
