Chapter 412: Miss Pei?
“Sister Shu doesn’t seem to be around. Why don’t you let that person wait outside?”
Hearing this, that person was stunned. “Then I’ll bring that person to the VIP room?”
He Moqing snorted. “President Hong is in the VIP room now. Can you take responsibility for offening President Hong? Just get that person to wait downstairs.”
“This… isn’t too appropriate. After all, she’s here to look for Sister Shu.”
The woman wearing a pair of black-framed glasses was a little reserved.
However, He Moqing glanced at her with a trace of despise and sarcasm in her eyes.
There was a sense of superiority on her face. “Jiajia, you have to pay attention to your work too. A year ago, we were in the same batch of interns. Now, you’re still at the edge of the second floor. You might as well go home and sell fish with your mother.”
Jia Jia’s face turned red and pale, but the rest of the people either laughed at her or buried themselves in their work, pretending not to hear her.
Everyone knew that Jiajia’s family background was not good and she relied on her mother who sold fish to support her family.
As for He Moqing, all of her clothes were branded and she was even living in a villa. The social status of the two of them was worlds apart.
“I’ll go and bring President Hong some tea.”
Before Jiajia could leave, she was stopped by He Moqing arrogantly.
“Wait.”
Jia Jia stopped in her tracks, not daring to look back.
At this moment.
He Moqing walked towards her and chuckled softly. “I’m afraid you wouldn’t take good care of President Hong. It’s better if I send him off.”
“As for the one who came to get the express delivery, tell her not to go upstairs. Who knows if her hands and feet are clean?”
With that, He Moqing smirked and left confidently.
When Jiajia left with a terrible expression, she saw He Moqing touching up her makeup at the corner of the long corridor.
On the second floor, He Moqing’s beauty was indeed one of the best.
Pursing her lips, Jia Jia reached out to adjust her black-framed glasses before she went downstairs silently.
She asked the receptionist and found the young lady who had brought the parcel.
“Miss, you are…”
Halfway through her sentence, Pei Yunge turned around. Her bright and beautiful face made her lose her senses instantly.
However, her beautiful eyes were void of any temperature.
When Jiajia regained her senses, she immediately continued, “Y-You’re Miss Pei who is here to retrieve something, right?”
Pei Yunge answered, “Mm.”
Jiajia had a feeling that she had heard the surname ‘Pei’ somewhere before.
But she couldn’t remember.
Jia Jia glanced at Pei Yunge and bowed to her seriously. “I’m sorry, Miss Pei. Sister Shu isn’t around. I might have to trouble you to wait here.”
“I’ll stay here with you while you wait, alright?”
Hearing this, Pei Yunge glanced at Director Lin unconsciously.
She asked, “How long do we have to wait?”
“If Sister Shu has a meeting, it will take at least twenty minutes, and at most forty minutes…”
“Then can I go upstairs?” Pei Yunge asked.
Previously, when she came to the Huo Corporation, Ceng Xu had personally come down to fetch her. The elevator she used was also exclusive.

“…I might not be able to help you.”
Jia Jia said awkwardly.
Manager Qian hated her to begin with. If Manager Qian used this as an excuse to make a fuss, she might very well be fired.
If she was fired, how could the family endure it?
Pei Yunge could see that Jiajia was in a difficult position, so she did not persist. Instead, she sent a message to Ceng Xu.
However, after a few minutes, this message seemed to have disappeared into the ocean.
There was no reply.
Pei Yunge’s eyes curved as she stared at her with her pretty eyes. “Sister, my grandma’s leg isn’t good. Can’t you let me in?”
