Chapter 711

"Yeah, I got in through an interview. I had already prepared myself mentally that I might not be hired, and I would just go interview at other companies then. It turned out I didn't expect to be hired. At the company, I hope you two will pretend not to know me, okay?" Song Ziqi winked at Qiao Muting.

The playfulness of a young girl, looking cute and without any ulterior motives.

Qiao Muting asked indifferently, "What made you think of coming to work at the company?"

"Didn't you say before that you wanted to start your own business?" Zhang Tezhu followed up with a question.

All these years, the boss has given Song Ziqi living expenses every month; a young girl could never spend all that money, and saving it was more than enough.

Starting a small business, even if it loses money, would be more than enough to cover losses for five or eight years.

Why come out to work now?

And why come to work at Qiao Group?

He seemed to be able to guess some of the motives behind it.

Song Ziqi said, "I lack social experience, so I'll work first to accumulate some experience, and then go realize my dream."

Then she looked at Qiao Muting again, "Brother Mu Ting, will me working at Qiao Group make things difficult for you? When I came for the interview, I absolutely did not mention that I know Brother Mu Ting, nor did I say I know Zhang Tezhu, and I competed fairly with the others who were interviewing."

Such a statement sounded a bit like trying to cover something up.

Qiao Muting's expression was cold, making it impossible to discern his emotions. He seemed indifferent to Song Ziqi's appearance and said before the elevator opened, "Since you passed the interview and entered Qiao Group, then be a good employee of the company."

Song Ziqi bit her red lip, "Okay, Brother Mu Ting, don't worry."

The elevator reached the floor where Song Ziqi was located. Before she got off, she took a quick look at Qiao Muting.

There was a bit of disappointment.

When the elevator doors closed, Zhang Tezhu said, "I'm also not very clear on the situation. The company has indeed been hiring recently, and Miss Song went through the normal application process."

Being able to get hired into the company showed that Song Ziqi had some ability.

He remembered that Miss Song's grades were among the best when she was in high school.

Qiao Muting only gave a hum.

Zhang Tezhu said no more.

Recently, he had figured out some of the boss's thoughts; some of Song Ziqi's intentions had been seen through by the boss, and the boss was deliberately distancing himself from Miss Song.

Actually, the boss had already done everything he could for Miss Song over these years.

The car accident back then was a deliberate act by someone, and Miss Song's mother could be considered to have died protecting the boss.

——

During her lunch break, Shu Xia saw Song Ziqi's social media post.

A photo of a Qiao Group work ID.

Accompanied by a few sun emojis and the caption about starting to work hard from today.

The cuteness of a young girl was displayed to the fullest.

One could also tell from the photo that Song Ziqi was in a joyful mood.

Song Ziqi had actually gone to work at Qiao Group.

After her gaze lingered on her phone for a few seconds, Shu Xia turned off the screen.

"Shu Xia, Li Qianqian invited us to eat across the street; it's her treat," Gu Cheng said to Shu Xia.

The two of them had just been discussing ordering takeout.

There were many choices for takeout recently.

She didn't expect Li Qianqian to invite them.

Shu Xia was a bit distracted, "Okay, let's go."

Gu Cheng noticed that Shu Xia was a bit distracted and asked, "Is something the matter?"

"It's nothing." Shu Xia put her phone back into her bag.

Li Qianqian had asked her a couple of days ago if she had time, wanting to treat her and Gu Cheng to a meal.

She had finished two tasks last night, and there was still one task in hand now; she would be done in these two days and could breathe a sigh of relief and relax.

"Did Qiao Muting bully you?" Gu Cheng suddenly asked in a low voice.

In his inherent view, Qiao Muting was too terrifying.

In any case, he wasn't a good person, and he was definitely not easy to get along with. Shu Xia choosing to marry Qiao Muting really took great courage, making people curious about how they got along on a daily basis.

"He hasn't bullied me," Shu Xia said.
