“Xiao You, when you go to fetch water, could you please pour me a ss of orange juice? Thank you.”
“The pantry has run out of fruit juice…”
“Oh! Look at my memory.”
Conversations like this had happened countless times in the past week, and in the end, it was still somewhat ufortable.
“It’s all Lin Li’s big mouth. If she hadn’t been gossiping and badmouthing President Shen behind her back, we wouldn’t have such a hard time even getting a sip of fruit juice.”<div>

“Speaking recklessly might be momentarily satisfying, but it ended up causing trouble for everyone. It’s really hical!”
“There’s a saying that goes, ‘Don’t bite the hand that feeds you.’ How could those who benefit from President Shen’s generosity end up criticizing or resenting her in the end?”
“Yeah! She’s a real ingrate.”

Lin Li had be the target of everyone’s criticism and was soon isted by the group. However, not a single person had a bad word to say about Shen Wan.
Liu Yi watched the situation unfold and was relieved that she hadn’t been in the pantry that day. Otherwise, she might have said even more hurtful things, and as a result, she would have be the target of everyone’s criticism!
Nevertheless, her opinion of Shen Wan slightly declined. Lin Li had only spoken the truth, albeit bluntly. Did it really warrant such a dramatic reaction? “Liu Yi, we’re ordering takeout. What do you want to drink?”
“I… I’m sorry, I have to take a call,” she said, getting up from her seat.
“Always being so secretive, who knows what you’re up to…”
Liu Yi held her phone, walked quickly to the corridor, found a secluded corner, and after making sure it was safe, answered the call.
“Secretary Li,” Liu Yi spoke in a hushed and respectful tone.
“What’s the situationtely?” The man’s voice was excessively cold and sent shivers down one’s spine just by listening.
“President Shen is still the same as before. Shees to work on time every day, pays no attention to thepany’s affairs, and there have been no personnel changes or adjustments.”
“Continue to keep an eye on her, and report if anythinges up.”
“Secretary Li, wait—” Liu Yi hurriedly interjected, her voice unintentionally raising in volume. Upon realizing this wasn’t right, she quickly lowered it, her tone tinged with anxiety.
“Do you have something else?” His tone had grown impatient.
Liu Yi’s heart tightened, and her scalp tingled, but when it came to her future, there was no room for hesitation. “You promised before that you would find a way to transfer me to the group headquarters…”
“Heh,” a brief, mockingugh came from the other end, showing no regard for her dignity. “Thinking about rewards before the job is done?”
“I didn’t mean—”
“That’s enough. Do your job, thene back to negotiate.” With that, he hung up.
Liu Yi gripped her phone, seething with frustration.
Mingda Group, Project Department, Manager’s Office.
Knock, knock, knock—
“Pleasee in.”
Li Wenjin adjusted his sses and pushed the door open. “Manager Shen.”
“What’s the matter?”
“I inquired about the situation at Mingya.”
Shen Ru’s hand, which held a pen, paused momentarily. Then, she slowly raised her head, a hint of amusement ying on her lips. “And what did you find out?”
“It’s the same asst week, no major developments, everything is calm.”
“Heh, she’s good at keeping herposure.”
Li Wenjin pondered for a moment. “Could it be that you’re overestimating her? Perhaps she’s not making any moves because she doesn’t know how to.”
After all, based on the information he had found, Shen Wancked education and skills. Aside from carrying the title of “Third Lady of the Shen Family”, she had no redeeming qualities. Such an ipetent person didn’t deserve their attention.
Shen Ru, however, shook her head in disagreement. “That’s because you haven’t met my sister. She’s no ordinary person.”
Li Wenjin furrowed his brow..</font>
