New Beginning-2

Her wild and spoiled nature was a piece of common knowledge. So the people at the company held disgust towards her.

'In my last life, their disgust had brought their defiance. Their defiance had discouraged me and stopped me from taking further steps. I let my employees step all over me and ruined the overall discipline of the company. A company where the President is not respected can't succeed. But this time... I know exactly what to do.'

"President Jing, I'm your secretary assigned by Chairman, Mei Xiu. I just received the news from the security guards that you would have arrived in the complex." A professional yet mellow voice landed in Jing Lihua's ears and brought a surge of joy within her.

Her green eyes glimmered in delight.

However, she quickly contained her happiness.

'This is technically my first meeting with Mei Xiu in this lifetime. If I am overly joyed after meeting her, she must think I am weird.'

With a gentle voice and a warm glow in her eyes, Jing Lihua answered.

"Mei Xiu, I have heard a lot about you. From now on... I hope we work together and bring the best of the Tang enterprise."

Mei Xiu was her mentor in her last life. When Jing Lihua had first joined her company, she was a spoiled idiot. It was Mei Xi who had been extremely patient with her and taught her all that she knew today.

'Too bad. In my last life, I hated Mei Xiu for pestering me. I even wanted to get rid of her. If not for my grandfather having her arranged to guide me, I would have already fired her using my position. I only realized how much worth she was once I lost her.'

Listening to Jing Lihua's response, Mei Xiu paused for a second. 'Didn't Chairman said that Jing Lihua would be too difficult to work with and have no interest in the company? But looking at her eyes shimmering with determination... it doesn't feel like she fits Chairman's description'

"President Jing overpraise me. I will guide you to your office." Mei Xiu didn't trust Jing Lihua so soon. 

'I trust the Chairman's words. There must be something wrong with her bearing, In any case, I will just wait to find out.' Mei Xiu thought.

Mei Xiu guided her along the way towards the elevator. Once they arrived on the tenth floor, they walked out together. With Mei Xiu guiding her, Jing Lihua silently followed.

Along the way, Mei Xiu gave brief introductions of the different departments that crossed their sight as they headed for her office.

Jing Lihua knew about them already.

Nevertheless, she nodded at Mei Xiu's explanations.

Her bearing was neither too confident, nor too reserved.

It was just perfect.

Looking at this, Mei Xiu was pleasantly surprised. 'It seems that Chairman was wrong this once... wrong about his own granddaughter'

Jing Lihua even asked Mei Xiu brief questions about the departments to show Mei Xiu that she was interested.

Once getting inside the office, Jing Lihua's cherry red lips curled up into a smile.

'I remember how it happened in my last life. At that time, without having the patience to wait for Mei Xiu to accompany me, I had rushed towards the President's office on my own. I was disrespected by a few employees who didn't know who I was. They laughed at me once I told them my identity as President

'But I can't blame them. Since Jing Tian had assisted me to help dress up for my first day, I have dressed up in gaudy attire. No President would show up like this. After being insulted, I had grown into a rage and thrown a ruckus successfully ruining my image. From that day onwards, no matter what I did, I could never regain the respect I lost.'

'I was always mocked in the industry for that day.'

"But that's the matter of past. This time, the beginning was best. Since Mei Xiu purposely kept a reverential stance towards me in front of them, they should have guessed who I was. And with my bearing and coldness, they should have realized not to cross me. if they still do not then..."
