After Divorce, Hidden Marriage Husband Became Addicted to Me-Chapter 448 - 312: _2

"My milk tea is also downstairs, Tang Xi, could you bring it up for me while you’re at it?"

"And mine too..."

Suddenly, everyone in the office started asking Tang Xi to help them fetch their deliveries.

Tang Xi was holding a paper cup; she just wanted to go outside to throw away some trash.

She frowned slightly but still endured it.

She was going to buy a cup of coffee downstairs anyway.

Watching Tang Xi walking away, Xu Minjia snorted, "Look at her, dressed so plainly. I heard she already has a child, no wonder she looks so old and dowdy all the time, who would be interested in her? I wonder who her husband is."

Fang Yuan spoke up, "Tang Xi is actually very pretty, her skin is delicate and fair without a single pore visible. She comes to work makeup-free almost every day; I thought she was a college student."

Qian Lin chuckled at this.

Clearly, Xu Minjia was just jealous of Tang Xi.

But she still followed Xu Minjia’s lead and continued, "Well, Tang Xi is our colleague too, so what if she has a child. She must have gotten pregnant right after graduation..." and she burst into laughter, "I mean, which normal person has a child right after college? That must hint at a messy private life."

These people are just big mouths who love to gossip behind others’ backs. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Qian Lin and Gao Minjia are exactly those kind of plastic colleagues who gang up to bully newcomers.

Gao Minjia’s family is quite well-off, and she has a relative at a high position in Fu Group.

Sometimes, Jian Rui knows they bully newcomers but chooses to turn a blind eye.

"I saw Tang Xi’s information a few days ago, guess what, it was all blank. No graduation school or home address listed," another female colleague said, "Probably used some unconventional methods to get this job. And look at her, appearing makeup-free but actually that’s all fake, just a trick to seduce men. Nowadays, men like women who are physically appealing yet look innocent and non-threatening."

Fang Yuan came over carrying a stack of documents and after sitting down and taking a big gulp of water she said, "Aren’t you guys being too much? Tang Xi kindly went to pick up your deliveries and you talk behind her back like this?"

Fang Yuan is just a college graduate intern.

She’s no match for these seasoned office workers and, scared of offending them, she could not even utter a word after being rebuked by them several times.

After finishing her nail polish, Gao Minjia began to apply makeup, "Dear Fang Yuan, you should be careful about whom you befriend. You’re technically my junior, and as your senior, I do take care of you. If you have any problems, feel free to ask me for help. What can Tang Xi do for you? Oh, you’re both newbies, newbies naturally stick together and share their grievances, right?"

Fang Yuan clenched her teeth, feeling frustrated.

For those few days when Tang Xi wasn’t here, Fang Yuan was practically used like a menial laborer in the Design Department.

During the workday, she had to fetch drinks and takeout for these ’senior employees’ and remember everyone’s preferences. All the odd jobs were left to her.

Gao Minjia went to the same university, sort of her senior, who likes to throw her seniority around.

But Fang Yuan is straightforward and honest, and while it’s one thing to be bossed around, speaking ill behind someone’s back is another.

This Gao Minjia, with her heavy, seductive makeup and vanity, hides her coarse skin beneath layers of foundation and constantly badmouths Tang Xi — it’s just sheer jealousy.

After waiting upstairs for a while and not seeing Tang Xi, Fang Yuan thought there might be too much takeout for her to carry alone. She found an excuse to go downstairs to find her.

She saw Tang Xi sitting at the coffee shop on the ground floor.

Calmly enjoying her coffee.

Fang Yuan ran over breathlessly, "Tang Xi."

"Sit." Tang Xi glanced at Fang Yuan and then took out her phone to scan a code and ordered a coffee for Fang Yuan.

Fang Yuan quickly said, "They’ve been urging you to come up from upstairs."

Tang Xi was in no hurry, leaning back comfortably in the booth.

"No rush, let them wait if they want to. If they can’t, they’ll come down themselves."

Watching Tang Xi’s attitude of not indulging those colleagues, Fang Yuan felt a sense of relief, but still couldn’t help but warn, "Tang Xi, those people are tricky to deal with, especially Xu Minjia, she’s really close with the Director. Qian Lin and Qu Xinrong, they’ve been here five to six years... we’re new, just endure a little longer, and it’ll pass."

Tang Xi shook her head, "No worries, your coffee is here, come and rest for a while."

Fang Yuan holding her coffee, bit her straw and looked at Tang Xi’s tranquil and fearless demeanor. Curiosity struck her, "Tang Xi, what did you do before? Do you have any relatives working here..."

Tang Xi raised an eyebrow, "Well, kind of knows someone working here."

Fu Tingzhou, hmm, her ex-husband.

Fang Yuan finally relaxed, "That’s good, if you didn’t have any support here, and you upset them like this, they would definitely ostracize and bully you."

"Fang Yuan, did you also have to fetch takeout for them every day before?"

Fang Yuan nodded.

"There was another intern who started with me, but she left after just a few days because she offended Gao Minjia..." Fang Yuan looked around, and upon seeing no familiar faces, she leaned closer to Tang Xi and whispered, "I heard from someone in the department that next quarter, Director You is transferring, and Jian Rui will be promoted to Director, and Gao Minjia will be the Deputy Director..."

"Thank you, Fang Yuan, for telling me so much."
