Qiao Yin gently declined, “I don’t understand anything about auctions. I’m afraid I’ll just cause you trouble if I go.”
“How can you roblem me? Everything on my end is straightforward. I hope that you won’t reject me, Second Sister-in-law. After all, you’re family. I trust you more than others.”
“Moreover, the work here is not stressful. The environment is also very good. So, you don’t have to worry about such issues.”
“Consider it as a casual visit, Second Sister-in-law. If you feel uncomfortable, you can still reject my offer later.”
Qiao Yin found it strange. She and Lu Yanxi were not very close and she was on bad terms with the Lu family. Why would she invite her to help?
Could this be another trap set by Madam Lu?
However, she remembered that the relationship between Madam Lu and the second branch was only average. They didn’t socialize much.
After pondering for a while, she decided to go and find out the truth.
She agreed, “Then I will come to have a look. As I said, I don’t understand auctions, I may not be able to help you, hope you won’t mind.”
“Of course, I won’t! I’ll be so grateful as long as Second Sister-in-law can come and help. Then, it’s decided. I’ll see you tomorrow, Second Sister-in-law!”
The next day, Qiao Yin got up early in the morning.
She took a bath, carefully styled her hair, applied skincare, and light makeup, put on a formal suit skirt, stepped into high heels, carried a bag, and rode her bike out of the house.
Her solemn preparations were certainly not for meeting Lu Yanxi.

She was going to meet Dongfang Mu, the heir of the Eastern Empire Group.
At half-past nine, as per the agreed time, she arrived at the office building of the Eastern Empire and was guided to the reception room by his secretary.
However, when the door to the meeting room opened, she ran into an unexpected person—Lu Lingche.
She couldn’t help but be stunned.
She hadn’t made a mistake. She was sure she had come to the Eastern Empire, not the Shengling Group!
Lu Lingche was clearly surprised to see her too.
The leg that she had kicked yesterday started to hurt slightly.
Just as he was about to speak, he was pushed aside by Dongfang Mu, who then spoke with a polite and solemn tone, “Miss Qiao, right? I’m sorry for making you wait. I was discussing something with someone and it ran a bit late. Please come in!”
Qiao Yin quickly came to her senses and gave him a smile. “No problem at all, Young Master Mu, I’ve just arrived.”
Dongfang Mu hadn’t officially taken over the Eastern Empire yet and was only serving as a manager. Qiao Yin had done her homework before coming and knew that people here called him Young Master Mu.
“Secretary Wan, bring my Pu’er tea cake and make tea for Miss Qiao!”
Secretary Wan obeyed and left.
“President Lu, I won’t see you out. I have a valued guest here. Please make yourself at home.”
Having said this, Dongfang Mu closed the guest room door.
Lu Lingche was left outside.
Had Dongfang Mu hurriedly ended their project collaboration discussion just for the sake of making time for Qiao Yin?
Why?
Lu Lingche knew about Dongfang Mu’s Pu’er tea cake. It was auctioned last year at an auction held by Lu Yanxi and had cost him 1.7 million yuan. He was not willing to share it with others.
Just now when he came to discuss business with Dongfang Mu, he was only served ordinary tea, without the willingness to serve him the valuable Pu’er tea!
Why would he serve it to Qiao Yin?
For the first time in his life, Lu Lingche felt that his brain wasn’t functioning fluently.
Qiao Yin had unusually put on makeup today. Even when they got their marriage license, she hadn’t worn any makeup.
She had also put on a formal suit skirt.
Clearly, she was here for a job interview.
But what could she do? Front desk work?
It couldn’t be a front desk position. Dongfang Mu was the future heir to the Eastern Empire. Even though he was currently only a small HR manager, not everyone needed him to conduct the interview personally.
Could it be because she looked attractive, so she got special treatment?
This was also possible.
Dongfang Mu was famously fond of beauties. Last month, he made the news for gifting a sports car to a female internet celebrity..
