285 Digging A Hole

No matter which possibility it was, it could only mean that Miss He no longer intended to put Tao Xin in an important position, and Tao Xin herself seemed to have not realized the seriousness of the problem.

Xu Ling narrowed her eyes. She thought of the last spice on the list and suddenly chuckled. 𝒇r𝘦eπ˜Έπ’†πš‹π§o𝘷𝘦𝘭. 𝒄om

Since Miss He had already predicted that Tao Xin would do this, she just had to do as she was told.

She bought everything on the list, but when it came to the last spice, Xu Ling walked out of the spice market. She went to a fruit store nearby and bought a bag of kumquats.

She pushed open the door of the coffee shop and saw Tao Xin still freshening up in her seat. Xu Ling walked over humbly and gently, tidied up her things, and placed them on the table. β€œSister Tao, I’ve bought everything you wanted.”

β€œSo fast!” Tao Xin excitedly put down her lipstick and mirror and began to check them one by one.

In fact, she did not recognize any spices at all. She had just roughly checked the number. When she saw that one was missing, she frowned and slammed the table with an unfriendly expression. She scolded arrogantly, β€œYou’re trying to fool me, right? Do you think I don’t know how to count? You’re simply missing something! Idiot, take that list and check it again. If there’s anything missing, immediately go and make it up for me!”

Xu Ling was not angered by her bad attitude, nor did she care about the other customers’ pitiful or amused gazes in the cafe. She had a faint smile on her lips the whole time. β€œSister Tao, you misunderstood. Everything is here. The last thing is the bag of kumquats beside you.”

β€œKumquat can also be used as a spice? I think you’re just trying to fool me! Just you wait, I’ll call Brother Chen now and ask him to fire you!”

Tao Xin was about to pick up her phone from the table and dial Chen Zhao’s number, but her eyes were fixed on Xu Ling. As long as Xu Ling showed any signs of weakness, Tao Xin would immediately be sure that this girl was playing with her, and she would not let her go easily!

Unfortunately, Tao Xin was destined to be disappointed. She looked at Xu Ling for a long time, but she could only see a little helplessness on her face. It seemed that Xu Ling also realized that she had been holding her phone for too long, so she awkwardly put down her phone and asked with a frown, β€œYou’re serious? Are you really not lying to me?”

β€œI’m not lying to you. You just have to submit these as they are and you’ll be able to complete your errand,” Xu Ling replied calmly.

Tao Xin was skeptical, but her heart wavered when she saw Xu Ling’s submissive look. She looked at the time and saw that He Miao was almost done with school, so she could only trust Xu Ling for the time being.

If she made He Miao angry later, she would rat out Xu Ling and push all the blame onto Xu Ling. Anyway, Chen Zhao would definitely testify for her that Xu Ling had bought all these things.

If He Miao was satisfied, Tao Xin would take the credit and make He Miao trust her ability even more. From then on, she would let her take care of the company.

Tao Xin had a good plan in her heart, but no matter how much she thought about it, she did not expect that He Miao would dig a big hole for her.

At the campus gate, after He Miao finished checking the spices, he looked at the bag of kumquats in her hand and stared at her. β€œWho told you to buy this thing on your own? As my secretary, don’t you know that I hate kumquats the most? Also, I’m missing a spice from the list I gave you!”

Tao Xin was used to He Miao’s gentleness, so her face turned red when she was suddenly scolded in front of so many people at the school gate. She quickly followed her plan and ratted out Xu Ling without any hesitation.

He Miao’s face brightened up. She took the bag of kumquats and handed it to Xu Meng. β€œTake it back. I don’t like this.”

Xu Meng stared in shock at her best friend’s realistic acting. If it was not for the fact that she and He Miao had just finished a whole box of kumquats this afternoon, she would have believed that He Miao really hated kumquats!

Tao Xin saw that her expression had softened, so she quickly smiled and comforted her, β€œXu Ling is the new secretary. She is young and has just graduated. Please don’t take it to heart.”

He Miao snorted coldly and turned to stare straight at her with her dark eyes. β€œNo! Since she’s so inept, why should she stay in Jing Yan’s company? You drive, and we’ll go back to the company. I’ll ask Jing Yan to fire her now!”

β€œAh?” Before Tao Xin could react to her swift and decisive actions, He Miao had already opened the car door and got in with Xu Meng.

Tao Xin had no choice but to be the driver and take the two to Jing Yan’s company.

It was not Xu Meng’s first time here. She put her arm around He Miao’s shoulder and said, β€œWill our company be as grand as this in the future?”

β€œOf course!” He Miao nodded lightly and smiled. β€œOur company is even more beautiful than this!”

Tao Xin listened to their conversation in shock. She could not help but look at the girl who was very close to He Miao.

What did she mean by their company? Could this person be the other partner of He Miao’s company?
