The Struggles of Being A Mother of Villains

Ch.175 Through the Back Door (2)

Xiao Yu gave him an "Okay" in response and took out her phone, playing a driving game. The dynamic music was too noisy, so Ji Xuan rubbed his forehead and said, "Quiet down a little, Xiao Yu."

After turning off her phone, Xiao Yu slung herself over her chair. "But it's not fun without music. Ji Xuan, I'm so bored!"

Seeing her like this, Ji Xuan glanced at the empty corner of his office and said, "Why don't I buy you another piano?"

Xiao Yu turned around to look at him, eyes wide in curiosity. Ji Xuan was in a good mood. "I'm saying, I can install a piano for you here in the office."

Xiao Yu got up and said, "It's not like I come here often. It'd be wasteful to install one!"

Ji Xuan looked at the corner where a large vase as tall as a person was located. Seemingly able to envision a piano there, he smiled. "Don't worry about it. It'll be ready for whenever you do visit. That way, you can play the piano and you won't be bored."

Xiao Yu rubbed her chin. "I think considerations can be made."

At around 11 o'clock, Wei Jianhua's call came, and Xiao Yu asked for his location.

After she hung up, Xiao Yu said to Ji Xuan, "Mr. Wei is about to arrive."

Ji Xuan nodded and gave Ban Zhenyu a call. In just two minutes, Ban Zhenyu entered. Ji Xuan told her, "In a few moments, a man called Wei Jianhua will arrive for an interview. Bring him over."

Ban Zhenye nodded. After some thought, she asked, a little unsure, "Which...department will he be entering?"

Ji Xuan glanced at Xiao Yu and said, "Public relations. Not only is he entering that department, I want to make sure that he get into that department."

Ban Zhenye understood what he meant. He was coming in through the back door! President Ji always hated people who join through the back door, so she didn't expect him to do the same himself. It was simply unbelievable, tsk tsk tsk!

"Are you going to stay and watch?" Ji Xuan raised his eyes at Ban Zhenye, gaze extremely cold.

He waited until Ban Zhenye nodded and left before saying to Xiao Yu, "There goes all my face. Gone."

Xiao Yu looked innocently at him. "How could your face be gone?"

Ji Xuan explained, "I never allowed anyone to get in through the back door in the past, but now I'm the one opening the back door. How am I going to show my face again?"

"You're the biggest in the company, of course you can do whatever they can. You can even do whatever they can't!" Xiao Yu answered.

Ji Xuan, "...It's a loss of principles for me too, going through the backdoor and whatnot."

"That's because you were too upright in the past. You can mellow out after this event. Isn't that good? Besides, who's never owed someone a favor before? You think there's really nobody in your company that came in through the back door? You just don't know it! When it's kept under wraps, then it's just a normal guy coming in for a normal interview. But if it's found out, then that's what you call going through the back door. Tell me, who doesn't have any family or friends to open up the backdoor for them? There are tons of holes everywhere, especially in a subsidiary. The emperor can't control the world if he's too far away," Xiao Yu blabbed out a ton of nonsense in an attempt to comfort him.

But it didn't console him in the slightest. He looked at her speechlessly and said, "Why do I feel worse off after this? It's like I'm a powerless emperor or something."

"Hahahahahaha...you're so funny." Xiao Yu patted his shoulder.

Ji Xuan answered with a fake laugh, "Not as bad as you."

Soon after, Ban Zhenye called to inform him that Wei Jianhua arrived and was now being interviewed by Manager Zheng from the PR department.

Xiao Yu said, "I'll go and take a look for you!"

Ji Xuan pulled her back. "Why are you going? If I'm not there, then you'll only be stopped outside."

Xiao Yu was stunned. Then she looked at her with big puppy eyes, and Ji Xuan was caught by her cuteness again. He said speechlessly, "Can you not look at me like that?"

"Why not? It's not like I'm pretty, I'd be a fool if I didn't at least use these big eyes of mine," Xiao Yu said to him proudly.

"So you're doing that on purpose?" Ji Xuan responded to her, exhausted.

Xiao Yu laughed and sat next to him, tugging at his clothes in a needy fashion. Unfortunately, what came out was, "Anyone who can fall in love at first sight with a baby face is a pedophile."

Ji Xuan, "...Just go down by yourself!”
