Chapter 276: Chapter 276: Sisters Unite_1


    “Xiao Ning, I’m so d you’re here. Without someone I can trust, I’d surely break down with everything that’s going on in thepany…” Xu Yixue let out a sigh of relief and slowly said to Ye Xiaoning.


    At this moment, a sense of weariness was evident in her demeanor; as a woman, she had to carry the burden of such argepany and could not afford to lose. Xu Yixue felt that she was truly reaching her limit, and desperately wanted to just throw in the towel.


    If only she had a strong shoulder to lean on behind her, Xu Yixue thought wearily, and yet, without her control, the image of Xu Fan, that somewhat clueless irond straight man with the rigidity of a big log, involuntarily appeared in her mind.


    “Tch, I don’t need your help. I can definitely ovee the difficulties by myself. I, Xu Yixue, won’t let you look down on me!” Thinking of Xu Fan, although she found no support, Xu Yixue felt a surge of power rise within her, making the difficulties before her seem not so frightening anymore.


    “Yixue sister, when do you think they’ll target ourpany’s stocks?” Ye Xiaoning asked while taking out thepany’s financial reports from the file cab in Xu Yixue’s house and analyzing them.


    “My guess is next week, because next Tuesday we’re going to sign arge cooperation agreement with Zhonghua Group, a major conglomerate from Zhonghai. So, they’ll definitely carry out their ns before Tuesday, making it very likely that they will act on Monday, the day before we sign the agreement,” Xu Yixue pondered and replied to Ye Xiaoning.


    “So next Monday will be the moment of truth. I’ll immediately contact some of my ssmates from school; they’ve been working in the industry for years, and two of them are even gold-medal analysts and professional traders. I bet I wouldn’t be any worse than them if I hadn’t joined the Fire Phoenix Special Combat Team,” Ye Xiaoning said a bit confidently.


    “Xiao Ning, I trust you. You will definitely save our Xinghai Media!” Xu Yixue’s eyes shone brightly as she looked at Ye Xiaoning.


    “Haha, with our hearts united, nothing can stand in our way. We’ll get through thepany’s tough times together,” Ye Xiaoning extended her fair hands toward Xu Yixue.


    Xu Yixue also reached out her slender palms and sped hands with Ye Xiaoning firmly.


    “Let’s do this!”


    “Let’s do this!”


    Their bright voices intertwined crisply in the empty office.


    At the same time, downstairs at Xinghai Media, a white Audi S7 was steadily parked in a spot right outside the Xinghai Media Company building.


    Xu Fan opened the car door and then lifted Tongtong from the back seat, slowly walking into the building.


    The security guard at the entrance, who had wanted toe over and inquire about Xu Fan’s visit, recognized Xu Fan’s very familiar face upon seeing him carrying Tongtong.


    Upon closer inspection, wasn’t this the mysterious man who beat my face until it was swollenst time, rumored to have some unclear rtionship with President Xu of thepany?


    Seeing Xu Fan approaching, the young guard dared not obstruct him anymore and immediately leaned forward, bowing slightly to Xu Fan, “Sir, pleasee in.”


    “Haha, finally some recognition, not bad,” Xu Fan replied softly and strode into the grand lobby of Xinghai Media.


    Upon reaching the reception desk, Xu Fan looked up and noticed that the pretty girl whom he had seen before at the front desk was happily scrolling through TikTok under the table, asionally revealing a joyful smile.


    “Ding! Ding! Ding!” Xu Fan approached the reception and gently tapped on the wooden desktop of the desk.


    “Ah?” The front desk girl was startled at first, hurriedly hiding her phone under the counter and gave the person before her a somewhat nervous look.


    When she saw that it was Xu Fan standing in front of her, her nervousness increased as she stammered, “Sir… hello, may I ask… do you need… anything?”


    “Beauty, during work hours, how can you be on TikTok? Luckily, it was me who saw you. If it had been a client, they might have questioned ourpany’s level of management,” Xu Fan said with a slight smile, teasing the front desk girl.


    “Um, sorry, sorry, I just took out my phone, and only watched for a minute…” the front desk girl said with a blush, speaking to Xu Fan in a somewhat flustered manner.


    Actually, she was telling the truth; she had just been on her way to the restroom, and opened Douyin out of boredom to watch a few short videos. But when she came out, the video wasn’t finished, so she continued watching at the front desk.


    She had intended to watch it just until the end of the video where the scion gets beaten up by a poor son-inw who saves his wife, and then turn it off. But just at this critical moment, Xu Fan walked in.


    It was such a coincidence.


    “Sorry, it won’t happen again… Could you not tell Manager Xu about this?” the front desk girl asked Xu Fan with a pleading look.


    “Little sister, what kind of person do you think I am, someone who snitches behind people’s backs?” Xu Fan curled his lip, deliberately teasing the adorable girl.


    “Yeah, pretty sister, Daddy would never tattle, you can rx. Tongtong is a good person too, and won’t rat you out, hehe…” Tongtong, nestled in Xu Fan’s arms, also gave the front deskdy a sweet, innocent smile.


    “Hehe, that’s good, thank you both,” the front desk girl said with a sweet smile upon hearing their words.


    “Has Manager Xu finished work for the day?” Xu Fan asked her, seeing that the front desk girl was no longer as embarrassed as before.


    “I’m sorry, Manager Xu will be off work in a little while. Do you want me to contact her for you?” the front desk girl offered eagerly to Xu Fan.


    After all, she had just been caught ying with her phone by Xu Fan, so she was now very respectful and well-behaved towards him, not showing the same assertiveness as before.


    “No need, it looks like it’s almost closing time. We’ll just sit here and wait for a bit,” Xu Fan said, sitting down on thefortable couch in the lobby with Tongtong in his arms.


    Actually, Xu Fan didn’t want to disturb Xu Yixue’s work by going upstairs. As the CEO of thepany, she was undoubtedly very busy. If he kept going up to bother her with his daughter during working hours, not only would it look bad, but it might also lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.


    “Alright, I’ll pour some tea for you then. Please wait here for a moment. Manager Xu usually finishes work right about this time,” the front desk girl said obediently and turned to go prepare tea for Xu Fan and Tongtong.


    Xu Fan sat on Xinghai Media’s soft andfy couch with Tongtong in his arms, curiously watching thepany’s peopleing and going.


    It wasn’t long before the tea was ready. The front desk girl brought over the tea and said to Xu Fan, “Please enjoy.”


    “Thank you, sister!” Tongtong responded to the front desk girl with a charming reply, ahead of everyone else.
