Xia Qingtian placed the list she had obtained on her father's desk.
Her father glanced at it and asked, "Why did you bring this over?"
"Dad, I learned in class that these enterprise personnel transfer and recruitment lists need to be compiled at the end of each month. Since it's almost the end of the month, I brought it over for you," Xia Qingtian said with a chuckle.
Before her father could reply, the secretary's voice was heard from outside.
"Why are you here? Is there something you need?" The secretary, who was delivering documents to Xia Father, saw Song Junhan lurking suspiciously at the office door and asked loudly.
Song Junhan, who had been concentrating on the sounds from inside the room, was startled by the voice from behind him.
Xia Father and Xia Qingtian both looked towards the door. Xia Father asked, "Who is outside? Come in and talk."
The secretary then pushed the door open. Song Junhan's expression was extremely grim. As he walked in, he met Xia Qingtian's teasing gaze, and his heart sank.
"Mr. Xia, this is the compiled average report. The rest are the personnel transfer and recruitment lists. They can be submitted before closing after compilation," the secretary said, placing the documents in her hand on the desk.
"This is for you," Xia Father said, handing the list Xia Qingtian brought over to the secretary. "Qingtian has already had the HR department prepare it. You can just compile it."
The secretary nodded her thanks to Xia Qingtian and even praised her a few times, bringing a smile to Xia Father's eyes.
"You're welcome, it was just a small thing. I also want to share some of my father's burdens," Xia Qingtian said with a laugh.
"Then you still have a lot to learn. This winter break, you'll come to Xia's as my full-time assistant, and I'll teach you well," Xia Father said, looking at Xia Qingtian with immense satisfaction.
"This..." Xia Qingtian blinked. The thought of her acting career, which was secretly conducted, now had the cover of academics and a virtual idol. She could still achieve her goals indirectly.
If she were to be around her father every day during the winter break, wouldn't her true identity be exposed immediately?
However, remembering that Song Junhan was present, Xia Qingtian replied with a chuckle, "As long as Dad needs me, I'll be there whenever you call."
"Remember your words," Xia Father said with a smile.
"Dad, about that, my new handbag I pre-ordered has arrived. How about... transferring thirty thousand yuan to me first?" Xia Qingtian rubbed her hands, her smile both greedy and endearing.
"Buying another bag?" Xia Father hesitated for only a moment before nodding. "Alright."
After all, Xia Qingtian's recent performance had been quite good. Buying a bag was just a minor expense, so she could have it.
Song Junhan had been listening from the side. Hearing that Xia Qingtian wanted thirty thousand yuan just for a bag made his heart ache with jealousy.
He worked so hard, but what was the result? His entrepreneurial endeavors were ruined in a few words by Xia Qingtian, and he still had to live by looking at others' faces, and even now he was still paying off student loans!
No matter how absurd Xia Qingtian was, she was still doted on simply because she was the daughter of the Xia family?
This damned world!
"Junhan, is there something you need?" Xia Father turned his gaze back to Song Junhan, who had been silent, and asked.
"Uh, nothing." Song Junhan came back to his senses, forcing an unnatural smile, and looked at Xia Qingtian. "I haven't had the chance to thank you properly before, Miss. After all... your life-saving grace is something I will never forget."
Hearing Song Junhan say this, a subtle smile appeared on Xia Qingtian's lips.
She and Song Junhan both knew what had happened at the time. In such a situation, he could still humble himself before her and talk about thanking her for saving his life. He was truly adaptable, wasn't he?
Recalling Mo Jianing's words from her previous life, Xia Qingtian's eyes grew colder.
Didn't Song Junhan pride himself on his arrogance? Then she would trample all over his pride and completely crush his dignity. She wanted to see how much Song Junhan could endure.
"Since it's a thank you for saving my life, it should be a bit more formal," Xia Qingtian said, tilting her head.
Hearing Xia Qingtian's words, Song Junhan's eye twitched. "What does Miss think would be more formal?"
"Hmm..." Xia Qingtian narrowed her eyes slightly, then curved her lips into a harmless smile. "Then, at the company's anniversary celebration, in front of all the employees, give a formal thank you."
"It doesn't need to be too long, just... an essay of 800 words," Xia Qingtian stepped forward and said. "Remember to be sincere with your emotions. After all, it's for... saving my life!"
Song Junhan clenched his fists at his side. This damned Xia Qingtian!
"Qingtian, in front of all the employees, won't that be..." Xia Father hesitated.
"Dad, many people before thought I had a conflict with Song Junhan. This is also a way to resolve misunderstandings. Besides... I don't want him to always carry this 'life-saving grace' in his heart, feeling like he owes me. Someone as 'arrogant' as him, how could he stand it?"
"Thanking me publicly at the anniversary celebration is also to dispel the rumors that were aimed at me before." Xia Qingtian looked at Song Junhan and asked, "What do you say? You don't want your savior to be rumored as an idiotic prodigal who targets colleagues, do you?"
Song Junhan gritted his teeth tightly. Finally, he forced a smile and said, "I will be prepared."
Xia Qingtian wanted to hear him thank her publicly, but he needed to have the opportunity that day!
He would ruin Xia's reputation that day!
Then, let's see how arrogant this Xia Qingtian could be!
"I'll be looking forward to it~" Xia Qingtian chuckled, her eyes full of provocation.
After Song Junhan and the secretary left the office, Xia Father said, "Don't bully them again. Junhan is a good kid."
"How could I?" Xia Qingtian pouted. "Dad, you don't want people in the company to gossip about me, do you?"
Otherwise, her father could have stopped it just now.
"Sigh..." Xia Father shook his head, looking helpless against Xia Qingtian.
Xia Qingtian acted coquettishly for a moment, then claimed she needed to go back and prepare for her studies, returning to the Xia family early.
As soon as she returned to the Xia family, Xia Qingtian took out the list information she had photographed on her phone and began searching for the suspicious new employee.
All the information was perfectly constructed, but Xia Qingtian felt something was off.
That evening, Xia Qingtian pulled Xia Shang into her room and asked him to take a look.
"This information is fake," Xia Shang said, his fingertips lightly tapping on the computer keyboard. "All the links are sourced from the same virtual IP. The awards, alma mater, and work experience are all fabricated."
"As expected!" Xia Qingtian exclaimed. "Can you find out who he is through this photo?"
"The photo isn't very useful, but... we're already looking into it." Xia Shang's voice was still listless. "We found him. He's a hacker who is currently on the run."
