Chapter 784: They Actually Became Sisters-in-Law

~4 min read 714 words

It was already less than two hours until the end of the workday, yet the section chief assigned more tasks.

Sister Hong had thought she wouldn't finish on her own by the end of the shift, but she didn't expect to see Liu Chuxue return as soon as she stepped out.

Before entering the office, Liu Chuxue stored the items she was carrying into her spatial storage, as the timing was inappropriate; if she truly distributed them to everyone, she might inadvertently cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, not everyone appreciates another's kindness.

Everyone in the office was busy with their own tasks, except for Wan Xiaohui, who merely pouted at her.

Liu Chuxue naturally didn't take it to heart; even if she knew she had handled personal matters today, as long as Big Sister Hong didn't speak up and she didn't admit it, who could do anything to her? After all, she hadn't neglected her work.

Sister Hong handed her the documents: "You do a part, I'll do a part; let's try to submit it to the section chief before the shift ends. The factory office needs it urgently."

After roughly explaining the details to Liu Chuxue, the two returned to their respective workstations.

Liu Chuxue was already skilled at these tasks, and since Sister Hong held nothing back from her, she naturally handled the work with ease and felt no pressure whatsoever.

Instead, Wan Xiaohui was called into the office by the section chief and scolded: "Wan Xiaohui, what is going on with you? How many times have I told you? We are the Finance Section; we cannot tolerate even the slightest error. Yet look at the area you are responsible for. Can you not take this seriously?"

Wan Xiaohui was so ashamed and furious she wanted to die. She had joined the section by taking over her father's position; in fact, her father had taught her quite a bit in private, but she might truly be unsuited for this line of work.

Previously, the section chief thought that since she had only recently taken over, occasional mistakes were normal, but it had been several months, and errors kept occurring frequently, so he could no longer tolerate it.

Liu Chuxue worked quickly; after finishing and double-checking several times with no issues, she went over to help Sister Hong verify her completed work, which saved considerable time. Once Sister Hong finished the remaining items on her list and confirmed they were error-free, she handed them directly to the section chief: "Your master truly taught you well; Liu Chuxue is now fully qualified."

"Indeed. Now, she can handle all the tasks in the area we are responsible for."

While saying this, Sister Hong's face was filled with pride; unlike others, she never held anything back when training apprentices.

Everyone says that teaching an apprentice starves the master, but she thought differently; if everyone were like Wan Xiaohui, the master would eventually work themselves to death. Fortunately, her master was her father; if it had been someone else, she probably would have collapsed.

Soon, it was time to end the workday.

Before she even left the office, Duan Ruirui ran over to find her: "Why did you come here?"

Duan Ruirui smiled: "My partner said we would have dinner together tonight and asked me to come and invite you."

Liu Chuxue then realized that Duan Ruirui's partner was Xiao Wanpeng, the youngest son of her eldest uncle's family.

Her eyes widened instantly: If Duan Ruirui married Xiao Wanpeng, then she herself would be her sister-in-law; this fate was truly unparalleled.

She suddenly asked: "Do you know why he wants to treat you to dinner today?"

Duan Ruirui shook her head: "He just called me and said to invite you to dinner after work."

After speaking, she belatedly asked: "Do you know?"

Liu Chuxue smiled mysteriously: "You'll know once you see him. Let's go."

As soon as the two left the office building, Duan Ruirui patted Liu Chuxue's arm: "By the way, Feng Xiaojuan's watch was actually found. There was such a huge commotion yesterday and it wasn't found, yet today it was discovered in her pocket. Isn't that strange?"

She then added: "Huang Aifang even went over and scolded her, making Feng Xiaojuan cry from anger."
