The Man In Rage novel Chapter 483

"I was in town for business, so I swung by Yanqi Lake," replied Xu Lei with some random excuse.

Xu Lei didn't tell them about the Yanjing fighting match.

Since it wasn't something that could be easily explained, she chose to say nothing about it.

"Oh, you're on a business trip in Yanjing. It's true that new hires almost always get bullied in the company. The newbies always have to take on the most tiring tasks, like going on business trips. Rookies get tormented in the workplace, and it's pretty common in my husband's company. It's always rough at the beginning, but things improve with experience," said Guo Ya-Wen eloquently.

Guo Ya-Wen worded it as though she was giving Xu Lei advice when she was actually bragging about how well her family was doing in reality and flaunted her wealth with subtlety.

Guo Ya-Wen thought Xu Lei would ask about her husband's company, but she was in for a disappointment.

Xu Lei merely nodded and smiled without saying a word.

This undoubtedly left her slightly downcast.

But it was alright since Guo Ya-Wen quickly found some other way to get to that conversation.

"Oh, I got too excited about chatting and forgot to introduce him," said Guo Ya-Wen as she smiled. "Lei, this is my hubby, Lei Dong-Bao. He's an entrepreneur who handles tens of millions in turnover daily. It's too stressful, so he looks a little haggard."

Guo Ya-Wen smiled as she introduced him. Lei Dong-Bao stepped forward to hand Xu Lei his name card and smiled as he shook her hand. Then he said, "Since you're Wenwen's friend, call me Dong-Bao. You can reach me anytime at that number on the name card. I have some friends over in Jiangdong, so you can call anytime if you face problems. There's no need to be shy with Wenwen and me. Also, I heard that you work in a third-rate city. There's no room for progression in a tiny place like that. If you want to have a better future, you should go to big cities like Yanjing or Zhonghai."

Although it was merely a few words, Lei Dong-Bao was quite the show-off.

Lei Dong-Bao sounded as though he was some important man from the business world teaching a rookie.

Guo Ya-Wen chimed in and said, "Exactly, Lei. My hubby is right. Yunzhou is so small that compared to Yanjing, it's simply too backward. If you want to come work in Yanjing, just say the word. My hubby is the CEO, so I can get him to set you up as my assistant. Then we can carve a career together. Won't it be a lot better than a tiny place like Yunzhou?"

Although Guo Ya-Wen smiled as she spoke gently, she sounded superior.

Guo Ya-Wen sounded as though Xu Lei

was inferior to people from Yanjing like them.

Xu Lei made no comment and only smiled and thanked Guo Ya-Wen.

"Oh yes, Lei. You haven't introduced him yet. And this is..." asked Guo Ya-Wen quizzically when she caught sight of Ye Fan.

"This is Fan, and he's like a brother to me. He's from Yunzhou too and came over to Yanjing with me," replied Xu Lei.

"Fan? I've never heard about you having a brother before," said Guo Ya-Wen in surprise instantly.

Guo Ya-Wen always thought Xu Lei was the only child in her family and didn't know she had an older brother.

"Erm, Wenwen, don't be mistaken. Fan isn't my brother," explained Xu Lei.

Guo Ya-Wen asked even more quizzically, "Then is he your cousin?"

"Stop asking, Wenwen. Are you trying to make Lei admit that he's her lover boy?" said Meng Han as she teased and laughed.
