His Cute Wife Is A Little Crazy Chapter 11
Advertisement
About three weeks after the unpleasant brunch, the carefree Hu Lei received a call from Etude Technologies. When Assistant Chen spoke, she almost hung up immediately. She had waited for so long for contact, but it had been in vain.
Truth be told, though her life had not been perfect, she had never struggled in getting anything in the past. How could she accept that even with her father's intervention that the black-hearted Zhong Feng would be so reluctant to hire her?
Ultimately, she did not disconnect the call. She wanted to prove to that man that he had made a mistake. When he realised his mistakes, she would leave immediately. In her heart, the little devil hiding placed her hands on her waist and laughed loudly.
The mature Hu Lei who hoped to become a part of the Supreme City working community remained calm and listened to Assistant Chen.
Hu Lei came back to Etude Technologies in a beautiful blue designer dress, feeling a sense of satisfaction at her appearance. She had to admit that her excitement about a corporate role could primarily be attributed to the opportunity to dress up.
In the past, most of her clothes consisted of practical trousers, fatigues, thick coats and t-shirts. Moreover, she primarily wore practical boots. After all, life in places such as jungles, deserts and general wild lands was not compatible with cute things. Now, she had the chance to dress up like a mature woman.
If Zhong Feng had known her thoughts as she pranced to the elevator in her pumps, he would probably have had her thrown out immediately. Countless people with incredible qualifications were lining up for an opportunity to work in the company while she treated it as a fashion show. Fortunately, he was completely ignorant about the thoughts of the preening kitten.

Like the last time, she went directly to the top floor. This time, the receptionist did not look at her with suspicion and contempt. However, the auntie could not help feeling a little jealous as Assistant Chen greeted her respectfully.
"Miss Hu, it is a pleasure to see you again." The young man said.
Sure, you say that now… Hu Lei could not help grumbling in her heart. However, she smiled and responded appropriately.
Assistant Chen could see that she was dissatisfied. He would not dare tell her, but he had nothing to do with this decision. His boss had ordered him to have her come in as soon as possible out of the blues. Originally, he had assumed that the president had forgotten about her.
In fact, the boss had not said anything about her since that meeting. When he had asked about the interview, he had received a freezing glare and been forced to put in a few more hours of overtime. After that, he had assumed that the interview had not gone well.
He had guessed roughly that the old Zhong was up to his old tricks of setting his son up with blind dates. That always put the boss in a bad mood.
However, it turned out that the chapter of the young Ms Hu was not closed. He could not help wondering about the change of heart.
When Hu Lei stood before the imposing door, she was not afraid or nervous. Part of her bravado came with the anger of not being called in for a position immediately. Assistant Chen opened the door for her and ushered her in.
Hu Lei stepped into the immaculate office with unwavering confidence and an upturned nose. However, her steps faltered when she saw him. Somehow, she had forgotten his powerful presence.

Though his immortal-like appearance was mesmerising, it was his aura that caused her heart to go thump-thump. She also felt like her breath was caught in her throat. Subconsciously, she clutched the purse in her hands tighter as her palms seemed to become moist.
"Are you planning to stand at the door forever?" a rough voice spoke through her foggy mind.
With that, the spell that had been cast on her seemed to lift. She frowned at herself in thought as she walked towards him. She felt strange and tense as she drew closer. It was as if she was approaching a powerful predator, though she was not sure whether what she felt was fear.
She decided to put aside her musings for another time.
For now, she needed to challenge the evil emperor and win. She would prove that the small subject had some tricks up her sleeves. With flames burning in her heart, she faced him squarely.
"Good morning, Mr Zhong." She spoke, inviting herself to sit opposite him.
