Chapter 281: Enemies on a Narrow Road
Early next morning!Lin Banxia put on the professional attire issued by the HR department—a tailored design with smooth lines, perfectly accentuating a woman’s curves. She paired it with a light white blouse underneath and a set of seven-centimeter high heels. Though the design appeared formal, it showcased her most graceful and feminine qualities.
Lin Banxia informed Aunt Lan briefly before driving out.
When she arrived at her workplace on time, she discovered five other young women with outstanding figures and appearances starting their shift alongside her. Each of them seemed lively and full of energy.
As a newcomer, Lin Banxia knew she needed to forge good relationships with her colleagues, so she flashed her warmest smile and greeted them.
Some of the women responded enthusiastically, while others remained indifferent.
"President Leng’s car is here!"
Someone exclaimed, and the young women instantly straightened up, their most charming smiles plastered across their faces.
Lin Banxia paused briefly before mimicking their posture, standing tall with her hands folded at her abdomen, her beautiful eyes gazing toward the entrance.
Soon, Leng Weichen stepped in, his tall and slender figure radiating an aristocratic aura.
The sunlight from behind framed his shirt like a dazzling halo—indeed, an irresistibly elegant male deity.
"Good morning, President Leng!" chorused all the women in unison, their voices sweet and honeyed.
Lin Banxia couldn’t catch up with their rhythm but synchronized her movements, bowing her head to avoid locking eyes with the man.
"Good morning!" His deep, intoxicating voice—like fine wine—oozed sophistication and charm.
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Lin Banxia’s lips curled into a faintly nostalgic smile.
This life and the last, we cross paths once more.
Fate truly works in mysterious ways.
From the moment he entered, Leng Weichen’s gaze had subtly yet deliberately swept to the girl standing at the very end.
However, he refrained from speaking to her directly. Instead, as he passed by, the corners of his thin lips lifted slightly.
Unexpectedly, she’s working at his company now.
Just as he stepped inside, he’d noticed her expression—it was devoid of any trace of sorrow.
Could it be... Huo Yanting’s failed marriage hadn’t hurt her?
What did this imply? That she never loved Huo Yanting in the first place. Only someone unburdened with love could escape such pain so effortlessly.
Leng Weichen mulled over these thoughts by himself, unaware that the truth behind it was far more intricate than he could imagine.
Lin Banxia officially began work!
Yet she had no clue that a looming disaster was on its way.
By afternoon, as Lin Banxia was just getting familiar with her workflow, she spotted a striking red sports car arrogantly pulling up outside the lobby doors.
All eyes were instantly drawn to the extravagant vehicle.
This had to be someone extraordinary—no ordinary person would drive such a car. Just as everyone waited eagerly, the car door opened, and out stepped a beautiful young woman.
Most people couldn’t help but marvel at her looks, but Lin Banxia found herself frozen in shock.
How could it be Huo Anya?
Why was she here?
Lin Banxia’s mind turned into a chaotic mess, frantically speculating on why Huo Anya had shown up. Suddenly...
She figured it out.
Huo Anya’s secret crush was none other than Leng Weichen!
So that’s the reason!
As Lin Banxia pieced things together, Huo Anya, dressed head-to-toe in luxury brands, strode confidently toward the reception desk.
The air around her carried the scent of high-end perfume, and her meticulously styled, alluring curls added an extra touch of enchantment.
With a hint of arrogance, she reached the desk, tapping her finger twice on the counter: "I’d like to speak with your President Leng. Please inform him."
