"Are you insane? That’s disgusting!" Bai Yiran stomped hard on Chen Lusheng’s foot.
"Ah!" Bai Yiran was wearing pointy high heels today, and with this step, Chen Lusheng screamed and released Bai Yiran, squatting down to hold his foot. "Are you crazy?"
"I think you’re the one who’s crazy!" Bai Yiran looked coldly at the disheveled Chen Lusheng.
"Do you believe I’ll fire you?"
"You have no right to fire me! I haven’t made a mistake at work, so you can’t fire me without a reason!"
With that, Bai Yiran stopped responding to Chen Lusheng and stormed out!
Perhaps Chen Lusheng’s scream was too loud, or maybe Bai Yiran stayed in Chen Lusheng’s office too long, or maybe Bai Yiran’s clothes were disheveled when she left Chen Lusheng’s office.
In any case, rumors quickly spread that Bai Yiran and Chen Lusheng did something shameless in the office, and Bai Yiran suddenly became the scandalous vixen to gossip about.
Rumors spread like wildfire, and people only believe what they want to believe, taking that as truth.
However, what the real truth is, they might not care at all. Urban life is stressful, and mundane living needs spice.
Thus, Bai Yiran became the subject of everyone’s idle chatter.
Bai Yiran felt helpless about this; she now understood what Leng Yichen meant when he said the workplace is a perilous place.
Everyone’s busy; no one has the time to earnestly understand another person, so ears become their first way to learn about someone.
Those misleading online life advice can really do harm...
Bai Yiran was right about one thing: Chen Lusheng can’t fire her without a cause, but that doesn’t mean he won’t force her to resign.
For instance, now Chen Lusheng has returned the payment details report that Bai Yiran worked hard on for a week to her, giving her just one day to redo it!
The reason being, Chen Lusheng doesn’t like the format of the table Bai Yiran made!
When it comes to work matters, Bai Yiran had no room to resist. Even knowing Chen Lusheng was using work as an excuse for personal revenge, she still couldn’t speak up.
In the breakroom, Bai Yiran made herself a cup of coffee. She didn’t know when she started relying on this bitter drink; she used to dislike this taste and thought coffee was just a prop for city folks to look chic.
Gradually, she discovered people don’t drink coffee because they like it, but maybe when you’re at your limit, only a cup of coffee can save you.
When you’re tired, you need it; when you’re lonely, you need it; when you’re sad, you need it; when you’re happy, you need it. There can be many reasons to drink coffee and, naturally, many people drinking it.
Huamei does well with employee benefits and is not stingy at all! The coffee is freshly brewed, using genuine Italian coffee beans with a rich and pure taste.
Bai Yiran made herself a simple Americano, turned, and saw Li Fei behind her, staring at her expressionlessly without knowing when she arrived.
"Want a drink?" Bai Yiran pointed to the coffee in her hand.
Li Fei stared at Bai Yiran for a long time, then suddenly laughed, but that laugh seemed awkward to Bai Yiran, "Do you not care about the rumors, or are all of them true?"
"Li Fei, don’t you think you’re the last person who should question me?"
"Is that so?" Li Fei blinked, her head tilted with a sickly expression. "Many people saw you running out of his office with disheveled clothes..."
"Li Fei!" Bai Yiran interrupted Li Fei, "Chen Lusheng is not a good person! He doesn’t even take you seriously! Stop being stubborn and wrong!"
