Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle - Chapter 313 Prejudiced against her

Later, An Xiulan was shown her office space and she had to work with three other newly appointed lawyers. Ming Jun would be directly working under Mr Long, the senior attorney while she and Zhang Yiming had to work together on a case.

Mr Long was the kind of person who didn’t know anything else than his work. When the new employees came, he didn’t waste time in the introduction but straight divided the work. Currently, there were three junior attorneys for criminal cases and he was the senior attorney who mainly took all the high-profile or difficult cases.

“Mr Zhang, ” An Xiulan nodded at the door.

“Please come in, ” The man nodded at her. He didn’t know why she was polite even though they were sharing the same office with Ming Jun.

“This is the paperwork you asked me to do, ” An Xiulan said. Since they were working on a case together, they divided the work between them based on their strong points. “Mr Long sent word to meet Mr Jin. He said it will be better if we interview him.”

Zhang Yiming nodded his head. “I will contact the prison authority. As Mr Jin’s representing the Law firm, we will be able to get a meeting soon.”

“Alright, “An Xiulan agreed. She went back to her desk and began working. The day ended soon and she didn’t even know. It was when the clock struck five, that she heard her phone ringing.

” Do you want a ride back home?” The melodious voice asked.

An Xiulan bit on her lips to hide the smile forming on her lips. “Will you offer me a ride?”

“You didn’t bring the car. I don’t want you to be stolen by the cab drivers. Lately, there has been a case where a cab driver kidnapped a young girl, “Han Zixin gave her the perfect excuse. Actually, it was not an excuse and he really was worried about it. She was new to this country. She was born and raised abroad and she lived here only for three years. Her experience here was negligible. It wasn’t impossible for her to be stolen by a thug or other criminal.

“You can say that you wanna give me a ride. Trust me, I won’t tease you, ” An Xiulan teased him. He was so cute sometimes that she had an urge to pull his cheeks. He clearly wanted to give her a ride but he was playing hard to get. Hah, she would see for how long he could keep this charade on.

“Yes or no?” He asked.

“For you, it’s always a yes, ” An Xiulan nonchalantly replied.

Han Zixin muttered something under his breath that she couldn’t hear properly.

“Are you coming or not?” An Xiulan asked once again.

“I’m at the entrance of the building. Come soon, “Han Zixin said, disconnecting the call.

“What a tsundere, ” An Xiulan scoffed. She picked up her handbag and waved goodbye to her coworkers who were looking at her with dumbfounded expressions. What did they expect? Why would she work overtime on her first day at job? She didn’t get paid to work overtime yet.

When she was leaving the office, her gaze fell on Amanda Ning who was returning to her office along with other higher-ups. She greeted the CEO and sashayed away with her heels clicking on the marbled floor.

She soon reached where he was waiting for her, leaning against the motorcycle. She didn’t say anything as he put the helmet on her head.

“Where are you staying?” Han Zixin questioned.

“With my mom and uncle, “An Xiulan smiled.

“I guessed so, ” Han Zixin muttered.

“Why?” An Xiulan asked.

Han Zixin sighed. “Remember I once told you have a mom complex? You still have it. You used to call your mom five times a day because you think it was normal. I would be more shocked if you say that you moved out like your brothers. Also, you have no life skills.”

An Xiulan had an urge to pout but he was right too. She could not cook and there was a possibility that she would die out of starvation if she lived alone. Moreover, she didn’t like to eat out occasionally.

“Do you have lunch?” An Xiulan asked.

“No, I didn’t get time, ” Han Zixin said. “I will drop you at home and then I have to go back to headquarters.”

“Why?” An Xiulan asked.

“I don’t have fixed working hours, “Han Zixin said. ” I have to go when I’m asked to.”

“Then, why did you come to pick me?” An Xiulan asked her arms on her waist. “Fine, I will get stolen by a cab driver. But remember my dad works in the same building. I can ask him to drop me home anytime.”

Han Zixin pursed his lips. He didn’t have anything to retort. She could have gone home with her dad but why did he come here? Even he had no answer to this question.

“Since you are here, let’s have an early dinner and then you can go to the office, ” An Xiulan suggested as she sat behind him on the motorcycle. It seemed as if he wanted to say something but in the end, he chose to maintain his silence.

In the office, Lu Zhaolin ended his work as soon as possible. He was habitual of working overtime but today he ended his work extra early just for her. They hadn’t gotten to spend time with each other. He would drop her at An Qinyan’s place and this would allow them to spend some time together.

As he reached An Xiulan’s office floor, he saw Zhang Yiming and Ming Jun clearing their desks and leaving for home. Since one of them refused to over time, they decided to go back home too. After all, it was their first day at the office and they had completed what was there to be done.

“Where is An Xiulan?” Lu Zhaolin asked.

“She left a few minutes ago, ” Zhang Yiming replied.

“Alone?” Lu Zhaolin asked.

“I’m not sure, ” Zhang Yiming replied. Even though he heard her talking to someone he didn’t say anything as it was not his position to say.

“Okay, ” Lu Zhaolin left.

Zhang Yiming turned to look at Ming Jun and questioned in confusion, “Does not Mr Lu handle another department? Why was he interested in ours?”

Ming Jun sighed. “Don’t you know the relationship between your partner in the project and Mr Lu?”

When he saw how oblivious Zhang Yiming was, he said, “Mr Lu is her father. I heard it from CEO Ning.”

“Oh, ” Zhang Yiming merely responded.

“I know what you must be thinking, ” Ming Jun replied. Who didn’t know in office that Zhang Yiming’s career almost got ruined by the daughter of his previous CEO. The firm where Zhang Yiming was working before used him to promote the image of the CEO’s daughter as a talented lawyer. Thankfully, Zhang Yiming was able to quit and save himself from the ruin.

“She is a hardworking employee. Didn’t she complete all the tasks before leaving?” Ming Jun questioned. “If she was using her father’s influence, she would have thrown her weight around but she did nothing like that. We should always give a chance to everyone.”

Zhang Yiming didn’t say anything. No one showed their real face in just one day. He was not stupid enough to trust people. Instead of going back home, he sat back at his table and began going through the tasks that An Xiulan completed before leaving.

Ming Jun didn’t say anything to Zhang Yiming either and exited the office. As he came out of his office, he saw Amanda Ning and she stopped as soon as she reached him.

“How was your day?” Amanda smiled at him.

“Good but I can’t say anything about the future, ” Ming Jun replied.

“Why?” She questioned.

“Zhang Yiming and his prejudice against nepotism,” Ming Jun grimaced. “It was fine until he didn’t know An Xiulan was Mr Lu’s daughter. I think he will make things difficult for her.”

Amanda suddenly smiled. “Good. She can always join another department. I think she will make an amazing civil lawyer. Or she can practise both. Let Zhang Yiming be the reason behind her new decision.”

“Is it even moral?” Ming Jun questioned. “You are forcing her into the back corner.”

“Jun, you are a lawyer. How can you talk about moral or immoral?” Amanda gently smiled at him as she fixed his tie. “Also, too much interest in the new employee is not nice. Focus more on your career.”

“She is a nice girl and I just want to help her out. More than helping her, I hate office politics. I just want a peaceful working environment, is it too much to ask for?” Ming Jun looked at her and asked. “Or you can ask Mr Long to make us partner on another project. Zhang Yiming is a loner anyways.”

“No, ” Amanda said. “She will not work with you and it’s non-negotiable.”
