Chapter 5: The Outsider's Perspective on Reversing Adversity
Hua Yi let out a sigh, shook her head, and looked at her with some heartache. The young mistress had a warm temperament and never liked to argue about anything, so in the eyes of outsiders, she was always yielding. If she were married to the good-tempered second young master, it would be fine, but unfortunately, she was married to the ill-tempered eldest young master.
Lin Yue'er put down the milk cup and smiled at Hua Yi, "Aunt Hua, it's still early, I'll take the bus myself later, it's very close, I won't be late."
Although that's the case, the morning rush hour is still a headache. Lin Yue hastily finished her breakfast, grabbed her black shoulder bag and headed out the door.
The house is located in a villa area, with a separate entrance and building. The location is relatively remote, and the nearest bus stop is still a 10-15 minute walk away.
Lin Yueer wore flat shoes and quickened her pace, walking along the winding mountain road.
When I arrived at the company, the punch-in time was exactly 8:59.
What a close call! If she had been one minute late, her perfect attendance record would have been ruined. It looks like she'll have to get up half an hour earlier tomorrow.
The company where Lin Yueer works is the largest cosmetics company in East Asia, "GL", and its sub-brand "DY" has successfully entered the European market. Among them, the natural ingredient perfume powder, known as having a traditional perfume formula of several hundred years, is DY's main product. And Lin Yueer's job was one of the R&D department staff who improved the perfume powder formula.
Wearing a uniform, Lin Yueer walked into R&D Department 1 with her long hair casually clipped back with a hair clip.
Because they have just submitted the improved fragrance formula, it has passed the experimental stage and got the company's approval. Now only need to repeatedly experiment with raw materials, next, will be put into production, so the work is relatively easy. When Lin Yueer walked in, several girls from the research department were gossiping together.
"I heard that the new secretary in the general office, named Stephanie, went out with Xiao Zong last night and even got into his car!"
"Just look at her flirtatious appearance and you'll know, what she wants to get on is not the young master's car, but the young master's bed!"
"The little general changed secretaries so quickly, thinking that this job is easy to do! She won't last a few days."
Lin Yueer wasn't interested in the gossip, so she walked to her own experimental desk and began flipping through several inspection reports that had been delivered that morning. Her schoolmate, Zhang Jiajia, came over and said, "Little Sister Yue, our research department is having a celebration party tomorrow night at 8 o'clock."
Victory celebration?
Lin Yue furrowed her brow, she was almost invisible in the company and rarely attended gatherings of this nature. If it weren't for her exceptionally strong passion for this job, she wouldn't have liked to show off.
"A friend just returned home and I'm meeting her tomorrow night, so I won't attend the celebration party."
It was as if Zhang Jiajia had expected her response, and she didn't buy it at all. "Little Yue sister, how can you not go?! Our department finally made a comeback in the company this time, and you're the big contributor!" She said, then leaned in closer and whispered, "Tomorrow night's celebration party, the department head is taking out his own wallet, he's really splurging!"
At this time, Yang Liu, who was sitting opposite her, poked out his head, shook the black-rimmed glasses on his nose, and held a test tube in his hand, shaking it gently. "Xiao Yue, don't blame me for not reminding you, there may be many high-quality men present tomorrow night! Oh, by the way, Zheng Yuhao from the second year of graduate school will also go, he has been asking about you through others, this is a good opportunity to get to know each other!"
