“Your reaction is very fast,” Yan Mu's eyes shifted from Lu Chengyu to Cao Jingshen's folder, which Lu Chengyu used to smash teacups. “Nowadays, there aren't many college students who are as physically fit as you are.”

“Usually I do a lot of exercises and I used to play basketball before, it was due to the conditioned reflex that I somehow managed to throw precisely. ,” said Lu Chengyu, he saved the document file, close his laptop and smiled at Yan Mu.

After a while, Yan Mu's lips moved. He said: “Just now, thank you.” He glances at Cao Jingshen and leaves the office.

Cao Jingshen saw his glance and follow him out. Lu Chengyu was left alone in the conference room, he scrutinises the room before slowly walks out of the room while holding his laptop using one hand.

When he walks into the elevator, he saw several people who participate in the meeting just now. All these people appearance are good. When they saw Lu Chengyu entering the elevator, they nodded to him. From that, Chengyu can deduce that these people are Yan Mu's ally.

Either it is a business world or politic world, one's standing is important. If you choose the wrong place to stand, your life is going to be tragic.

Back to his cubicle, Lu Chengyu printed out the previous meeting minutes and then continued to familiarize himself with Huading's internal situation. No matter how Huading's future gonna be, what he needs to do now is to do his job well.

When it's about time to get off work, Lu Chengyu found that his office's colleagues were very enthusiastic about him as a newcomer. So, when he wants to go home, there were many people said they wanted to hold a welcome party for him. With a big smile on their face, they told Lu Chengyu if there was anything he didn't know, just ask them.

During today's noon break at the canteen, these people have still alienated him. But now, they have become so excited. This is not because they are relieved since they can stay in Huading, but because Chengyu was the assistant of the President's secretary, meaning that he is one of the new President's faction.

After leaving the company, Lu Chengyu takes a crowded bus that was more tightly packed than canned bus this morning. He began to consider buying a second-hand car. Although he has a miserable working experience in his past life, he was able to buy a second-hand Chery. This life shouldn't be worse than that and he doesn't really care whether others would gossip about how an intern was able to buy a car.

In this society, it doesn't really matter if someone gossiping about you. What is important is whether you have or not the ability to block the gossip.

Regardless of how well and perfect someone can do his job, there always be someone else slander him behind his back. Only the person who has ‘someone strong behind his back', or they have ‘money' are able to block gossip. If someone who has both of this and yet still being slander by someone else, let alone him, who someone doesn't have both.

(T/N: For Chengyu, he doesn't care about gossip because regardless of how strong your backer or how much you money you have, someone still gossips about you. As for him who don't have both, it is not a surprise if someone wants to tell gossip about him, so he doesn't care)

After Chengyu gets off the bus, he went to a noodle shop in his neighbourhood and ordered a bowl of beef noodles, added with two dishes of meat and a plate of vegetables. Lu Chengyu loves to eat Tang Thiong [1] noodles here. It has quite a strong taste. All these years, he only likes the taste of this shop although this shop's front is not impressive.
