Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zong Pei was forced to team up with Xia Jinmeng for marketing. He was somewhat dissatisfied with Lu Shiyuan in the first place, and the current situation was exactly what he wanted.
Lin Shanchu really thought highly of him. Otherwise, she would not have done such a thing secretly to help him.
Thinking of this, Zong Pei was extremely proud and began to scheme in his mind.
The manager was very good at reading people. Seeing that Lu Shiyuan and Lin Shanchu were about to quarrel, she dared not stay to watch the drama unfold.
âPresident Lu, Zong Pei has to attend an event later. Weâll be leaving now.â
At this moment, Lu Shiyuan was angrily confronting Lin Shanchu and did not care about them at all.
The manager was not stupid enough to wait for Lu Shiyuanâs permission. She grabbed Zong Peiâs arm and walked out.
âWhat event? Iâ¦â Zong Pei was unwilling to leave.
âShut up!â After the manager scolded him, she forcefully pulled his arma and walked out.
Outside the door, Zong Pei erupted with dissatisfaction.
âWhat are you doing? I donât have any event to attend today! â
âIn the situation just now, did you want to stay there and watch the drama?â The manager glared at him.
Zong Pei touched his chin and said with a smile, âPresident Lin has helped me so much. I have to thank her in person, right?â
The manager said resentfully, âYou want to thank her? You dare to watch the drama the between President Lu and her? I think you have a death wish!â After saying that, the manager walked towards the elevator.
Zong Pei followed her and said, âThings are different now. Lu Shiyuan doesnât have the final say in the company. I think President Lin values me. If onlyâ¦â No one understood Zong Peiâs character better than his manager.
Zong Pei was fine in other aspects, but he liked beautiful women and could not control his lower body.
She had secretly cleaned up a lot of messes for Zong Pei. When Lu Shiyuan picked Zong Pei and wanted to nurture him, she hid his dark past.
Zong Pei was stuck to his old ways even though his popularity was getting higher and higher.
The manager looked around. After making sure that there was no one around, she looked at Zong Pei with a serious expression.
âDo you think President Lin is as easy to coax as those women youâve been screwing around with out there? Putting aside the fact that President Lu has suffered setbacks against her, she even has Huo Chaosheng by her side. Do you think youâre better looking than Huo Chaosheng or better at business than him?â
Zong Pei turned a deaf ear and looked disdainful as he said, âWhatâs so great about Huo Chaosheng?â
âAnyway, you better put that idea out of your head and donât mess with
President Lin. If something bad happens, weâll be done for! You hear me?â Zong Pei said perfunctorily, âI hear you!â
In Lu Shiyuanâs office, the two of them were still confronting each other.
Rather than a confrontation, it was more like Lu Shiyuanâs one-sided rage due to incompetence.
âHow did you know about this matter?â
Although Lin Shanchu had messed up his projects before, she was usually away from the company and did not know much about the companyâs business, let alone knew about his long-term cooperation with President Li.
âThatâs not important. Whatâs important is that youâve screwed up.â
Lin Shanchu sat down on the sofa with a relaxed expression, as if it was her own office.
Lu Shiyuan quickly came to a conclusion. âHuo Xunzhou told you! â
Lin Shanchu raised her eyebrows slightly without a word.
Lu Shiyuan was even more certain of his guess.
âAs expected, old habits die hard! Now, youâre even working with an unscrupulous man to snatch my investor! â
Lin Shanchu did not even blink as she said indifferently, âI donât know anything about investment, nor do I care about it. The only person I care about is Xia Jinmeng.â
âAs long as I am alive, Xia Jinmeng will never become successful!â Lin Shanchu sneered before she got up and left with her bodyguards.
The moment the door closed, Lin Shanchu heard a loud bang from inside.
Tch.
He erupted with anger and started to smash things again due to incompetence.
On the way back, Lin Shanchu checked the unread messages on her phone.
There were two missed calls from advertising campaigns and three junk messages.
Other than that, she also received WeChat messages from He Xiang.
He Xiang: [Sister Lin, do you want to eat beef or fish?]
He Xiang: [Iâll buy some of them.]
He Xiang: [Iâm lucky today. The vegetables are so fresh.]
He Xiang went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients and did not follow
Lin Shanchu ?Lu Corporation.
Lin Shanchu replied her: [Anything is fine.]
After that, it was a message from Huo Chaosheng half an hour ago.
Huo Chaosheng: [Wanna hang out at my house? Third Brother is not at home.] This sneaky toneâ¦
Those who did not know better would think that the two of them were having an affair.
Lin Shanchu pursed her lips and replied expressionlessly:
[Not]
[Coming]
She made it so clear that Huo Chaosheng could probably sense her speechlessness.
Huo Chaosheng was indeed very perceptive as he replied: [How about I come and hang out with you?] Lin Shanchu: [Iâm busy.]
Huo Chaosheng: [Heh.]
Lin Shanchu: [Arenât you going back to the capital? Why havenât you left yet?]
Huo Chaosheng: [Third Brother has been out early and come back late these two days. I wonder what he has been busy with. He didnât rush me, so Iâll stay for another two days.]
Lin Shanchu:
She confirmed that Huo Chaosheng truly had a brother complex.
Lin Shanchu stopped replying to him.
When she came out of the film set of âTop Feastâ last time, Qi Cheng drove a car to pick her up. On the way, he asked her about the filming and then told her about the following process.
Qi Cheng did not pick her up yesterday. He only called her to ask about the filming.
Other than that, he did not say anything else.
He did not even tell her about his work.
Previously, he also said that she was wanted for the endorsement of many brands and projects, so it was not like she would be out of job soon.
When Lin Shanchu arrived home, He Xiang had just returned from the supermarket.
He Xiang walked into the house with big and small bags.
âSister Lin, youâre back!â
âWhy are you carrying so many things without telling me? I would have picked you up at the parking lot.â
Lin Shanchu immediately went up to help her carry the bags.
âItâs okay. They are not heavy.â He Xiang avoided her hand, indicating that she did not need to help her.
Lin Shanchu could only give up.
She followed He Xiang to the kitchen and helped her put the things away. After putting the things away, Lin Shanchu said, âOh right, let me have a look at the schedule.â
âAlright.â He Xiang quickly clicked open the schedule on her phone and showed it to Lin Shanchu.
Lin Shanchu looked at the schedule for the next two days and frowned slightly. âOther than the brand ceremony tomorrow, I donât have any other work for the next few days?â
âBrother Qi said that he wanted to take on some high-quality jobs, so he rejected many other invitationsâ¦â
In fact, He Xiang was a little confused. With Lin Shanchuâs current popularity, even if he had rejected many invitations, she would not have only one event in two days.
âWhy donât I ask Brother Qi?â He Xiang asked tentatively.
Lin Shanchu ?pondered for a while before slowly shaking her head. âNo need.â
What was the use of looking for Qi Cheng?
Qi Cheng did not have the authority to reject so many of her jobs..
