“Let go, stop blocking me! I have to deal with her today! Acting like she’s the CEO’s wife, as if she doesn’t know her own place. Carrying a take-out box and daring to show up here!” she thought it was the receptionist who was with her that was holding her back as she spoke without filtering her words.
A man’s deep voice suddenly came from above, “Whom do you want to hit!”
The person who had been red-faced with anger, as if wanting to rush up and rip Rong Yan’s clothes to shreds, froze as if someone had hit her pressure point and abruptly turned around.
Upon seeing the imposing and dignified man, her legs went weak, like a punctured balloon, and she lost her earlier arrogance. Trembling like a leaf, she could hardly keep eye contact and almost wished she could bite her own tongue off, “CEO, CEO, Mr. Li.”
Li Shengxiao shook off her hand, his face as grim as still water.
She staggered back two steps and, upon regaining her composure, pointed frantically at Rong Yan, explaining, “Mr. Li, it’s not what you saw. It was her, she came to the reception, deliberately provoking, insisting on seeing you. After I refused her, she held a grudge. I saw her carrying trash and kindly told her I could help dispose of it for the company’s image. Instead of agreeing, she snapped a photo of my badge and accused me of having a bad attitude, demanding to see leadership. I was afraid she would cause a scene and disturb everyone else. I was just trying to persuade her when she hit me first. It’s only because I was so angry that I…”
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, as if she was the one who had been wronged. She didn’t mention a word about her own excessive behavior and pushed all the blame onto Rong Yan.
And she didn’t forget to call a witness, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Xiaoxiao. She was there too, she can testify that this woman came here without an appointment and caused trouble first!”
The girl she forcibly involved turned pale and dared not say a word in front of Li Shengxiao. She hung her head, stuttering.
Anxious and angry, the receptionist pulled at her, pressuring her half-forcedly, “Speak up. Wasn’t it this woman who caused trouble without an appointment and insisted we phone Mr. Li?”
“This…” the person being pressured still hung her head, stammering and unwilling to step forward to testify.
As if it were a joke, the CEO’s cold and oppressive aura made it hard to breathe, let alone speak up in this situation!
A woman’s intuition told her the woman they had looked down upon might have a deep relationship with their esteemed boss.
She didn’t want to get involved in this mess!
“Speak up! Everything I said is true, what do you mean by keeping silent!” The receptionist was so anxious she shoved her colleague twice.
“Enough,” Li Shengxiao’s gaze was icy to the extreme. He walked over to Rong
Yan, pushed her cap further down to cover most of her face, and then turned to the stunned receptionist, “You don’t need to come in tomorrow. I don’t want to see you in Capital City ever again!”
The receptionist, who was already shocked by his intimate gesture with Rong Yan, stood rooted to the spot, not fully grasping what he had said.
But her colleague heard it all too clearly. Trembling inside, they silently thanked their luck for not having foolishly stepped forward to testify, narrowly avoiding disaster.
Not wanting to see someone in Capital City meant that they could no longer get by in the city. After all, who would dare to take in someone Mr. Li didn’t want
“Furthermore, my woman never needs an appointment!”
The receptionist, under his piercing and frigid gaze, fell to the ground, her legs giving out. She watched, wide-eyed, as the woman she had disdainfully gossiped about was led by their Mr. Li toward the VIP elevator…
My God, this ordinary-looking woman was the mysterious lady who had been the talk of the company lately, the one seen with their CEO!
What on earth had she done….
