I Am Not Your Milkshake

When just going to throw a fit, she saw the two tall men behind the maid. “Miss Mu, Mr Su said since you want to evade the debt, he has no choice but to bring you to court.”

Finishing her words, the maid waved her hand. As the two men stepped forward, Mu Jiuyue was frightened. Retreating a few steps subconsciously, she yelled, “Wait a moment!”

Resuming some composure, she waved her hands, “ Give me a second!”

Thinking for a while, she took out her phone and called Su Feng'ao directly.

Su Feng'ao was calm to see the phone number. That was expected.

“Uncle Su, I’m really not capable of running now. Please come and see me. I’m worn out! My wretched legs can’t run much further! Please let me choose again!”

Mu Jiuyue said a bunch of things, fearing that Su Feng'ao would refuse her for incomprehension.

“Finished?” Su Feng'ao asked in a monotonous voice.

“Yes,” Mu Jiuyue affirmed and added, “I promise to work hard for money!”

“I appreciate your resolution…” Mu Jiuyue’s face was brightened with a smile, but next minute, her heart was broken by what he said.

“But no way.” He sneered.

Now Mu Jiuyue felt her life was plunged into darkness forever.

She collapsed at the sofa, quitting the struggle. “All right. Leave the laps for another day. I’m too tired to run today.” ‘Just think less about the future. There was time for delay.’

“Uh, I’d like to friendly remind you that the work time is 9 o’clock. You’re gonna be late.”

Mu Jiuyue’s whole body went stiff. She almost forgot the job!

“The time spent running shouldn’t be included. Okay, see you in the company, Uncle Su!” She shouted promptly at him.

Mu Jiuyue leaped form the sofa, carrying her suitcase, and ran upstairs. Heavily in debt, she couldn’t lose the job!

When Mu Jiuyue dressed up and arrived at the company, she had been late for an hour.

“Mu Jiuyue! You have been late for more than one hour on your first day. Do you want to work here?” In the office, the director looked at Mu Jiuyue. Her nerves were on edge when she heard the toneless voice.

“Of course! Director, I can explain it. I promise you I’ll never be late again!” To show her determination, Mu Jiuyue even gestured a vow.

Lifting his eyebrows, the director lowered his voice, “Again?”

“No! Never, I promise!” She replied instantly.

Looking at Mu Jiuyue, the director was silenced by her obedience and did not know how to rebuke her.

At this moment, there was a clamour outside. Knitting his eyebrows, the director looked at the outside with her.

Mu Jiuyue immediately caught sight of Su Feng'ao for he apparently outshone the others.

Dressed in a tailor-made suit from Italy, he stood indifferently with hands in his pockets. His handsome countenance was much eye-catching in a crowd of corpulent middle-aged men.

“That’s all for today. Don’t do it again. Now, out of here.” Ignoring her, the director said in a hurry and went outside.

Mu Jiuyue obeyed and went out with relief.

When passing by Su Feng'ao, she was tempted to glance at him. However, Su Feng'ao didn’t take a glance at her, as if she didn’t exist.

Seeing this, Mu Jiuyue curled her lips and mumbled, “Humph, you ignored me, and I don’t even want to know you.”

She swung her hair in an attempt to forget about Su Feng'ao, and then went to her desk.

“Mu, please print the document.”

“Mu, I need you to input these into computer.”

“Mu Jiuyue! What have you done with the format?”

…

Mu Jiuyue felt exhausted. Never had it occurred to her that work was so painstaking!

Holding her cup, she went to the break room in a lower spirit in want of a cup of coffee to refresh. She was so sleepy.

“I heard that the newcomer was late for one and a half hours. But the director didn’t lay her off. She’s someone.”

“Bah, no one knows who is behind her. She did all things badly, dumb girl.”

“Ha, ha, ha… Like a fool, she was bossed around. Just now, she stared at Mr Su, but he didn’t even look at her!”

Overhearing the conversations at the door, Mu Jiuyue showed a dark face. They were the two colleagues who bossed her around most this morning!

In a fury, she kicked the door open suddenly. The persons startled by her presence felt embarrassed and somewhat angry with shame.

One of the women, in showy dress, pointed testily at Mu Jiuyue, scolding, “Mu Jiuyue, you’re damaging the public facility!”

Mu Jiuyue, mincing no words, walked straight to them, gave a smile, and splashed water over them. They shrieked!

“Wash your mouths clean now?” She stared at them coldly, seizing the waist of one of them, who attempted to strike her.

“I, Mu Jiuyue, have everything except for a good temper. If I hear you speak ill behind my back again, I’ll play it hard!”

Mu Jiuyue threw off the woman’s hand. With a contemptuous look, her chubby face was somewhat scary in seriousness.

“Mu Jiuyue! You are nothing to me!”

When they were about to pounce on Mu Jiuyue, then came the angry voice outside the room. “What are you doing?”
