Wu Lihua beamed with joy, "Yes, President Sun, I won't let you down."
Indeed, this personal secretary had another role—to kickstart the establishment of the Hong Kong branch.
He had headhunted her with a high salary.
As for the other role just now, that was an unexpected bonus.
Or perhaps it wasn't so unexpected.
After all, the phrase "If there's work, the secretary does it; if there's not, the secretary is done" is an open secret in the industry.
"Go on." Sun Dasheng waved his hand.
Wu Lihua left with her head held high, a wonderful life beckoning her.
"Wait." The voice of the new boss came from behind her.
"?"
"Hmm... there are too many documents and they're too complicated. Better have a professional explain it to me. Your sister...?"
Wu Lihua had a flicker of anger on her face, but she quickly masked it. She knew that if she dared to refuse, she would immediately lose this 'top high-salary' job she just got.
So she flashed eight pearly white teeth and said, "I'll call her over right away to explain to you, President Sun."
Yes, that's more like it.
As they say, brothers fight tigers together, fathers and sons go to war.
Sisters serving the same boss is also in line with propriety, right?
When little Vivian Chow arrived at the hotel, Sun Dasheng was swimming in the rooftop pool.
Wu Qianhua was guided to the poolside by a waiter, looking utterly panicked.
Because her elder sister had hinted to her, she knew what she would face next.
"Why are you standing there stupidly? Come down and swim a few laps?"
Wu Qianhua reluctantly took off her clothes and put on the swimsuit that had already been prepared for her. Her face was burning with embarrassment. Was this swimsuit too skimpy?
It barely covered the most essential parts.
Even after changing, she hesitated by the poolside.
But unexpectedly, someone suddenly burst out from beneath the water and grabbed her fair ankle, pulling her into the water.
"Ah?..."
Falling into the water unexpectedly, she took in a big mouthful of water.
Her face turned bright red, and she could hardly breathe.
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I didn't know you couldn't swim." The man holding her wore an innocent expression, making it hard for her to gauge whether he did it intentionally.
But his hands were unapologetically roaming up and down her body.
Her body involuntarily tensed.
Her breathing became more rapid, her heart pounding so fast it almost leaped out of her throat.
She didn't expect this man to be so eager?
All kinds of tactics she had thought of on the way became ineffective.
"So alike, really so alike. If you two didn't mention it, I would have thought you were Little Jew's biological daughters."
"Otherwise, how could there be people who look so similar in the world?"
"No." Wu Qianhua could only muster enough strength to say these few words, unable to provide any further explanation.
"Oh? Then I'd better check and see if you're lying to me." Sun Dasheng gently brushed aside her clothes.
Already wearing very scant attire, a gentle push exposed the beauty underwater completely.
Splashes...
Water splashed wildly.
Sound waves and water waves intertwined, adding a touch of beautiful charm to the pool under the setting sun.
After a busy day, Wu Lihua returned to their pigeon-sized home.
Three generations squeezed into a house less than thirty square meters.
Among ordinary Hong Kong people, this was already considered good.
Seeing her sister sitting joyfully on the couch in the living room, she heaved a big sigh of relief, it seemed her sister escaped a disaster.
She didn't mind bearing the brunt, for she had long surpassed the age of longing for love.
Now she was determined to climb up, even if she had to pay a price for it.
But her sister was still young, although graduated and working, she was still at the age of yearning for love.
She didn't want her sister to become worldly and see the coldness of the world so soon.
So she held her sister's hand and said, "Qianhua, today you've been wronged, I'll make it up to you."
"Huh?" Wu Qianhua blinked her innocent big eyes, "What are you talking about? I didn't suffer any grievance."
"?" Wu Lihua looked at her in confusion.
Impossible.
Even if her sister wasn't violated, it was highly probable that the other party took advantage of her.
For the other party not to make a move on her would be like hitting the top horse, simply impossible.
"Tell me, how did President Sun treat you today?" Wu Lihua asked.
Wu Qianhua bashfully replied, "Oh, sister, President Sun is not as bad as you say, he's a good person."
"?" Wu Lihua instantly felt bad, had this little girl been brainwashed by him?
"Ta-da..." Wu Qianhua pulled out a property deed to show off to her sister, "President Sun said he would be good to me, and he gave me such an expensive gift on the first day."
Wu Lihua instantly recognized what her sister was holding because it was something she had been yearning for all these years of working.
She snatched the property deed from her sister's hand, with her sister's name on it, the address showing a very famous estate currently on sale: priced at 250,000 per square meter, the property deed stated 1,000 square feet, which is approximately 93 square meters.
But this is Hong Kong; such a large area could be called a thousand-foot mansion.
Over 20 million for a mansion, given just like that, on the first day of acquaintance?
Isn't this a mistake?
Wu Lihua instantly felt all wrong.
I clearly came first, clearly...
She suddenly realized, what was she doing?
Was she envying her own sister?
"This house, we can't accept!" Wu Lihua said firmly.
Wu Qianhua instantly became unhappy, her face fell: "Why not?"
Wu Lihua, disappointed at her sister's lack of ambition, said, "If you accept the house, you have no future."
Wu Qianhua retorted angrily, "What future do I have if I don't take this house? Can I afford this house in the future?"
"..."
It made so much sense that I had no response.
The sound of keys unlocking the door echoed outside.
It was their aging parents returning from work.
Their mother shouted from outside as she carried bags upon bags, "You two girls, come out and help mom carry the groceries. I bought some cheap beef from Aunt Li, today we're having dry-fried beef ho fun."
"Coming!" The two sisters dropped their argument and rushed over.
"Mom, why did you buy so much beef? We can't finish it all and it'll be wasted." As Wu Lihua said this, she immediately choked up upon seeing the white hair on her mother's temples.
At such an old age, still laboring outside, working hard her whole life, and until now hasn't enjoyed the blessings of her children, still having to pick cheap leftovers to eat something good.
"What were you two arguing about? Your dad and I could hear you from afar." Mrs. Wu casually asked.
The two sisters said in unison, "Nothing, we were just playing around."
After dinner, lights out for bed.
Wu Lihua sneaked over to her sister's bed, separated only by a curtain, and hugged her, saying sorry: "I shouldn't have said those things to you earlier."
Wu Qianhua also embraced her sister back: "I didn't blame you, sister. You were actually right, but... with our family like this, if sacrificing one person can make life better, why can't it be me? You've been sacrificing yourself for the family all this time, now that I'm grown up too, I want to share some of that burden."
Wu Lihua choked up, holding her sister tightly.
But in her heart, she thought: My silly sister, your sister has already sacrificed herself, there's no need for you to sacrifice too?
But now that what's done is done, she couldn't say anything more.
She could only quietly curse that bastard in her heart.
'Achoo'...
Sun Dasheng sneezed while on the phone, wondering who was thinking of him?
"Director Sun, are you feeling okay?" A concerned voice came through the phone, it was Chen Yuan, the general manager of Little Bear Takeout.
He was reporting on the status of the ongoing delivery war.
Even though the boss said to let him take full responsibility, anyone with a bit of sense knows to keep making regular reports.
Otherwise, one day his job might be on the line.
"I'm fine, continue. What moves are those two making now?"
