Chapter 450 - THE MANAGING DIRECTORS ORDER (1/2)
John Lu stood in front of Mo Yuan's room and took a deep breath before knocking on the door.
”Enter,” Mo Yuan's deep voice could be heard from the inside.
His Heart shook when he heard the Managing Director's voice. He turned the knob and entered the room.
The room was spacious enough to hold a small party for twenty a.d.u.l.ts. There was a huge table across the room. The table contained one PC and a laptop and some files and papers. There were bookshelves in the back.
In the corner, there was a set of couches and a tea table. There was a meeting room attached to the Managing Director's office. The rooms were divided by glass.
John Lu's eyes quickly took a glance at the structure of the room and then nervously stepped forward. Finally, he stopped in front of the table.
Mo Yuan was sitting in the chair. He was wearing a black colored suit and pants with white shirts and black shoes. His hair was brushed aside on the left side. His somber face looked m.a.t.u.r.e.
John Lu gulped. ”Good afternoon, sir. I'm John Lu, the new intern. It's an honor to meet you,” saying that he bowed deeply.
Mo Yuan was checking a few doc.u.ments. Upon hearing her words, he finally raised his face and looked at the petite figure. His deep eyes scanned him thoroughly before asking, ”So you are the new intern. I heard a few things about you. You came up with a better proposal than our permanent employee. Is that right?”
John Lu flushed at the compliment. ”It's not even worth mentioning.”
Mo Yuan questioned him, ”Did your Department Manager tell you for what reason I called for you?”
John Lu politely answered, ”Yes, he told me about an international project proposal. I have to earn more customers for the new products we are going to launch in the shopping mall.” His hands gripped tightly on the notebook and pen he brought with him.
”Hmm,” Mo Yuan observed the new intern's body language and threw a remark, ”You don't seem happy.”
John Lu was startled and quickly stated, ”It's just that, I'm an intern and I don't have enough knowledge and experience. I don't think I can do something of your expectation. Furthermore, if I win with others' help, I will have overconfidence which is bad for my career.” He didn't mention anything about what would happen if he failed. No boss would want to hear anything negative from their subordinates.
”Are you truly inexperienced?” Mo Yuan inquired. His sharp eyes were throwing daggers at him.
John Lu flinched. He was trying very hard not to have shaking legs in front of his boss. He replied, ”I can't be more experienced than the permanent employees here.”
”Is that so?” Mo Yuan tapped his fingers on the table. His every tap created a thud sound. The sounds made John Lu's throat dry. He wished he could have a glass of water.
Mo Yuan suddenly stopped tapping fingers and questioned him, ”If you don't have enough experience, how can you find flaws with a project written by our permanent employee and can come up with a better proposal?”
”That… was just luck.” John Lu subconsciously began to scratch his head.
Mo Yuan raised an eyebrow. He further inquired, ”Just pure luck?”
”Yes,” John Lu answered without hesitation.
