Chapter 375 - Edward Wu (2/2)
”Edward Wu, the man you will be working for. He is the third generation of Wus to own this company. Are you sure you are in the right place? How do you not know even this?” Mei Mei Chung was genuinely taken aback, and she stopped to turn and look at Amy.
Amy was at a loss for words. She was shy but this felt like something else entirely. It was all she could do not to turn around and make a beeline for home. Mei Mei Chung shook her head and started to walk again.
They had gotten off the elevator on the fifth floor so she could show Amy the kitchen. She was walking along the lobby now towards another elevator exit that would take them to the 10th floor, where Edward's office covered nearly half the entire floor.
”I can see you have got a bad case of the nerves. I would advise that you relax and take things easy. I understand that being in this building alone can be very intimidating for most people, but don't think too much of it. Edward is a nice boy. I literally watched him grow into a handsome young man.
He seems like a hard nut at first, but once you get to know him, he's the nicest boss anyone could wish for.” The grey-haired woman recalled fondly, a distant smile on her face. ”He likes his coffee rather sweet. Half and half of cream, milk, and sugar.
He will always ask for extra sugar, so take him a plate with 3 cubes of sugar. Two will go unused, but it's important they're on the plate.”
Amy recorded the information in her brain, hoping that she would never forget anything that she had been told.
”Edward has special restaurants that he likes to eat lunch at. It is separate from the one he orders food from when he is with his friends. There's also a different one for when he has huge meetings. Are you following, sweetheart?”
Amy breathed deeply to steady herself and nodded, forcing a smile onto her face. It was a lot of information to digest, but she was sure she would get the hang of it in no time.
At the elevator, Mei Mei Chung paused and turned around. ”You're a smart girl. I knew you'd be perfect the moment you walked in. Now come on, we have some more floors to cover before you can finally meet Edward.”
Amy's eyes went wide. ”But… I thought you said he hadn't come in yet?”
Mei Mei Chung laughed loudly. ”Great! I was just making sure you hadn't lost all the information I just gave you. In fact, I think you will be just fine from here on.
Get up to the tenth floor, make yourself some tea, and relax. You'll know when the boss comes in.” With that, she turned and left the same way they had come up.
Amy took what felt like the hundredth deep breath of the morning, and as she stepped into the elevator, she sensed that her life was about to change drastically. Just how drastic, she could not have imagined.
