Chapter 1985: Chapter 569: Has Mrs. Mu Matured a Bit? (3)
"Why would I need to report my busyness to you? An Nan hasn’t been keeping an eye on you lately, have you gotten too much freedom?"
Jing Feng glanced at him, casually taking him down.
"Hehe! By the way, I heard Brother Cheng got injured saving his female secretary this time. What’s your opinion on that?"
"It’s definitely not what you’re thinking!"
Jing Feng walked with him inside.
"Uh! How do you know what I’m thinking?"
Jiang Zhiyuan looked at him in confusion, a bit panicked, wondering if his thoughts were exposed.
"Because I’m also your brother!"
Jing Feng chuckled confidently.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhiyuan laughed foolishly, jumped up, and gave him a strong hug: "Bro! So are you buying lunch this noon?"
Jing Feng smiled: "You’re buying!"
"My money’s all with An Nan, you’ll have to call An Nan later to pay for it!"
"No problem!"
"Uh!"
Jing Feng laughed, as if saying he enjoys watching this foolish look.

After lunch, Yang Qin received a call from Zhang Hongyun, who then asked to meet her at a nearby western restaurant not far from their office building.
Whenever Yang Qin met Zhang Hongyun, she always felt Zhang Hongyun’s gaze was piercing. Zhang Hongyun always wore an expression of triumph, though Yang Qin couldn’t understand where this blind confidence or sense of victory came from.
"You finally agreed to meet me!"
Zhang Hongyun said with a smile.
Yang Qin pulled out her chair and sat down, not in as good a mood, only murmuring: "Eating alone is boring!"
"So, you don’t have many friends in Rongcheng, huh?"
Zhang Hongyun asked her.
Yang Qin lifted her gaze to look at her, then slightly moved her eyebrows in acknowledgement.
"I don’t have many friends here either, so I think we could totally become friends."
Zhang Hongyun said good-naturedly to her. A waiter brought the menu, and she asked Yang Qin to order first. Yang Qin didn’t hold back, after all, she was here to listen to Zhang Hongyun’s nonsense, intending to treat herself fully, she ordered the most expensive items.
Zhang Hongyun saw her ordering so earnestly and was secretly pleased, maybe by the end of the meal they would become friends?
"Isn’t President Mu difficult to deal with?"
Zhang Hongyun suddenly mentioned.
Yang Qin had been waiting for this, she smiled slightly and replied: "How can a boss be easy to deal with? But as long as I do my job well, he won’t find fault with me."
"Really? So it seems that I wasn’t doing my job well enough previously, and that’s why I was forced to resign? I thought maybe I was forced to resign because his beloved wife was behind pushing things, oh, you probably don’t know, Sister Xi Meng is quite close to his wife, right?"
Zhang Hongyun pretended not to know Yang Qin had a good relationship with Xi Meng.
Yang Qin only slightly curved her lips, akin to a smile, then softly said: "I don’t know how close they are, but Xi Meng has been beside President Mu for so many years, it’s only natural she’s familiar with his wife."
Zhang Hongyun seemed confused, seeing Yang Qin’s reaction, she apparently had no aversion to Qin Mu, and wasn’t against Xi Meng either; wanting to make friends with Yang Qin seemed quite difficult.
"That’s very reasonable, but I advise you to be more vigilant. Looking at you, one can see you’re a good employee, loyal to your boss, but just because you’re not cunning doesn’t mean others will see you as a dedicated secretary. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had to leave."
Zhang Hongyun continued.
Yang Qin raised her eyes to look at her and asked: "What do you mean?"
"What do I mean? It’s simple: if no one had instigated President Mu, I wouldn’t have left so soon. Frankly, I was actually dismissed."
Zhang Hongyun suddenly said the word ’dismissed’ quite openly.
Yang Qin looked at her and didn’t continue asking.
"There were rumors in the office that I had feelings for President Mu, how absurd, which woman in the office wouldn’t admire him? But admiration doesn’t mean pursuing or being a third party, but somehow the rumors reached his wife’s ears, and afterward she visited the office several times, caused me trouble, and not long after I was fired."
Zhang Hongyun said casually, shrugging.
Yang Qin had heard from Xi Meng about the reason for Zhang Hongyun’s dismissal, concerning that reason, she rather trusted Xi Meng’s account, as for Zhang Hongyun...
Nonetheless, Yang Qin still smiled at her and said: "So you were dismissed because of your fondness for President Mu?"
