“What did you say? How can I do the cleaning?” Meng Xia immediately retorted, but when she saw Sun Yang’s stern face, she instantly dared not speak.
“Humph, didn’t you hear what I said? Is your hearing also not working?” Sun Yang was unapologetic. “Song Corporation is indeed lenient toward employees. Even a janitor with only a junior high school diploma can be accepted, but at least there should be an interview.”
“You entered with the title of Miss Song, but I bet your English proficiency is not up to par, right? You might not even understand documents. Start by learning from the interns in the Marketing Department who are already quite tolerant of you.”
“Why?” Meng Xia’s eyes turned red, and she wanted her first day at Song Corporation not to end like this.
She pointed at Song Fan and said, “Why can she be a manager? She’s just a few months older than me. If she can be a manager, why can’t I? It’s only because she is Miss Song. But I’m also a daughter of the Song family.”
Sun Yang coldly snorted and then loudly said, “Yes, you are about the same age, but she is a few months older and has been hired as a teacher at the Eke International High School. Don’t you know about Song Fan’s study abroad experience and international chemistry award? Ignorance is forgivable, but can’t you at least browse the internet?”
He walked to Meng Xia’s side, and the pressure made her step back.
Sun Yang continued, “Although she is only a few months older than you, her achievements are not something you can compare to. Don’t delude yourself into thinking you can stand on equal footing with Song Fan.”
He sighed again and raised his eyebrows, saying, “Right, Miss Song and an adopted daughter from the Song family are indeed different. If you still want to work in the company, come to my department; otherwise, get lost. Let’s see if your so-called ‘Dad’ will support you.”
Sun Yang didn’t stay any longer and left Song Fan’s office directly. His words completely drained Meng Xia’s confidence. She initially thought that it was only natural for a member of the Song family to work in the company. Since Song Fan could be a manager, she naturally could too. She never considered that the real gap between her and Song Fan was not just their backgrounds.
Some colleagues had already started investigating what Sun Yang had said.
“It’s true. Song Fan used to be a physics teacher at Eke International High School. My goodness! Doesn’t this school only hire PhDs?”
“She won an international chemistry award in the past few years? I recognize the person in the photo; isn’t that the scientist from Country M studying new cancer drugs? He presented the award to Song Fan.”
“Mr. Sun has never defended others like this before. It seems he values Song Fan.”
“If she doesn’t have some skills, how could she secure the cooperation between Brown Group and Gu Corporation? Miss Song might be amazing. Perhaps she is the future successor.’
“A foster daughter tried to rise, but in the end, she was humiliated. Oh, this is like the classic ending of villainess in a novel.”
Meng Xia’s face had turned red, and she glared at Song Fan fiercely before lowering her head in unwillingness.
The HR staff whispered to her, “Miss Meng, let me help you with the procedures to transfer to Department Three. It’s not bad there; they’ve secured many major projects in recent years. You’ll learn a lot.”
The terms “Miss Meng” and “learn a lot” enraged Meng Xia.
“What ‘Miss Meng’? I am the daughter of the Song family, and I am also Miss Song!”
Today, she felt extremely embarrassed. She couldn’t bear the gazes of the people around her, and finally, she ran out crying.
“Alright, stop watching the show. When your leaders come, you’ll all get reprimanded!” Lan Yue timely dispersed the onlookers and then returned to the office, sighing, “Thank goodness Mr. Sun helped out; otherwise, it would be so annoying if Meng Xia stayed in our department.”
Song Fan helplessly tapped Lan Yue’s forehead. “She probably won’t have the face to come back. Don’t worry about it. Let’s celebrate tonight.”
She glanced at her phone, “Gu Chen has booked a place at Lanhai Hotel. If you find it unsuitable…
Before she finished speaking, Li Na directly cheered, “Hooray! Mr. Gu is handsome and kind! That’s great!”
Although they didn’t get to eat barbecue, Wen Chao was still happy, “It’s my first time going to Lanhai Hotel. Should I change my clothes?”
Wang Wei asked seriously, “Do we need to use the budget from our department’s activity funds?”
Lan Yue looked helplessly at Song Fan, who twitched her mouth, then generously said, “No need. With Mr.. Gu as our generous sponsor, eat whatever you like!”
