Transmigrated as the Ex-Wife of a Heroic Man Chapter 1136 – Ashamed and Embarrassed

Chapter 1136: Chapter 1136: Ashamed and Embarrassed

Someone couldn’t help but express their curiosity, “No way! I think Secretary Ji Fang does a great job and is very responsible.”

With a sneer, the person with thick glasses said, “That depends on who you compare with. If it’s against you guys, it’s not bad, but compared to the girl who just ran out, it’s already very good.”

That remark piqued everyone’s curiosity.

Ji Fang thought of something, and even in the cold weather, his forehead broke out in a cold sweat.

“When Deputy Director Zhou was at the Capital Design Institute, he had two secretaries; they were really impressive. They dealt with every aspect flawlessly, had strong professional capabilities, and never troubled Deputy Director Zhou with any personal issues. Back in the Capital, there were many who liked Deputy Director Zhou, whether from the Design Institute or Capital University; you could line them up from the city center all the way to Xiangshan.”

A suppressed gasp echoed through the break room.

“But with so many people and such complex social connections, both secretaries managed everything cleanly, without any mess,” the person with thick glasses finally couldn’t suppress a snort of contempt at the end, “Not like now, some naive Xiaoya dares to cling to Deputy Director Zhou, she would have been sent to some backwater village long ago.”

After speaking, they gave Ji Fang a disdainful glance.

This young man was too much of a letdown. If it had been those two secretaries from before, someone would have dared to say such a thing about their own Deputy Director, they would have been slapped across the face immediately.

“Hiss…”

The crowd was even more shocked, and they looked at Ji Fang with envy and jealousy. Everyone was wondering what kind of background he must have to be so fortunate as to become Deputy Director Zhou’s secretary. With this experience, he would be highly sought after in any organization in the future.

What mattered most was the connections. Being Deputy Director Zhou’s secretary would definitely amass countless social connections, a most valuable asset.

It wasn’t just others who envied Ji Fang’s good fortune; even the person with thick glasses did.

Everyone knew that Deputy Director Zhou particularly liked to mentor his subordinates. He had moved away from the Capital but had made sure to arrange good positions for his two most capable secretaries, leaving them in the Capital.

Those two would undoubtedly have boundless prospects for the future.

Amidst everyone’s envy, Ji Fang only felt his face burning hot.

He felt both embarrassed and ashamed.

He used to think he worked hard and that it wasn’t easy. But it turned out he was unaware of his own good fortune, that his work was not at all up to par, and that the Deputy Director had always been indulging him.

The person with thick glasses pointed to another comrade, a woman about the same age as themselves, who had been engrossed in a book, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask her.”

“Yes! Old Li is absolutely correct.” The woman who had been reading finally looked up and said gravely, “Deputy Director Zhou, although he has a mercurial personality and sometimes likes to play pranks on people, is very approachable as long as you don’t cross his bottom line. He’s also very willing to nurture talent.”

The implication was clear to everyone.

They were all secretaries; they knew some of the unwritten rules.

The position of a secretary, besides dealing with various issues, sometimes also involved taking the fall for the leaders.

“What about Deputy Director Zhou’s previous two secretaries?”

“One is pursuing further studies at Capital University under a master of architecture, and the other has already been promoted, to a position that we could never achieve in our lifetimes,” the person with thick glasses sighed, then fell silent.

The others also remained silent, each preoccupied with their own thoughts, but none spoke up.

They just occasionally glanced at Ji Fang with complex expressions.
