Chapter 149 Su Manyin wants to return to the company

After Jiang Mu left, Li Ruochu gently rubbed her sore eyes. Staring at the documents for a long time made her eyes tired.

Then she looked at the time, stood up, straightened her clothes, and walked towards Feng Yizhou's office.

However, as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw a rather dramatic scene.

Su Manyin stood inside, with two burly security guards holding her on either side.

Su Manyin's eyes were filled with tears, her hair was a little messy, and her makeup was washed away by her tears. She looked disheveled.

Li Ruochu looked at this scene and couldn't help but frowned slightly, his eyes full of confusion, and asked: "What is this about?"

Her eyes moved back and forth between Su Manyin and the security guard, trying to figure out what was going on.

When Su Manyin saw Li Ruochu, it was as if she had grasped the last straw. Her eyes lit up instantly and she immediately shouted, "Secretary Li, please help me put in a good word in front of President Feng and let me return to the company. I've been having a really hard time these days!"

As she spoke, she struggled to get closer to Li Ruchu, but was held tightly by the security guards. She could only stretch out her hands in vain, looking as if she had suffered a lot of injustice.

"With your ability, you can work normally in other companies. Why would it be hard?"

Although Li Ruochu has always been at odds with this woman, he is well aware that this woman does have certain strengths in design.

She tilted her head slightly, looking at Su Manyin with a scrutinizing look in her eyes, trying to find some clues from her expression.

"That's because I've been banned since I left the company. No industry wants me."

Su Manyin said as tears kept falling like beads from a broken string, crying more and more sadly, "I have devoted myself to the company for so many years, and I hope you can give me another chance and not kill me off."

Her voice was tearful and sounded particularly miserable, as if she had really suffered a great injustice.

Li Ruochu sneered, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the woman in front of him and said coldly: "Su Manyin, I don't want to get involved in your affairs, but don't forget that it was you who plagiarized other people's works to participate in the competition. You have lost your morals, how can the company keep you? Why didn't you consider the consequences when you did it?"

When Li Ruochu thought of what happened, he couldn't help but feel angry.

At the beginning, if she had not known Master William and could not prove the originality of her work, she would have been suppressed by Su Manyin using other people's works and would have no place in the design circle.

Su Manyin did this without considering the countless efforts and hard work that the designers had put in behind the scenes.

"Li Ruochu, what do you mean by saying this?" Su Manyin widened her eyes, her eyes full of unwillingness and anger.

"I have worked diligently in the company for so many years. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. You can't just ban me because of one thing. Is this fair to me?"

She shouted at the top of her lungs, her body trembling slightly with excitement.

It seemed as if she was unwilling to believe that Feng Yizhou could be so heartless as to make such a decision towards her.

“Is it fair for those designers whose works you plagiarize to design their works?”

Li Ruochu's voice suddenly rose, and the question echoed in the room like a loud bell, causing Su Manyin's body to tremble slightly.

Her eyes were fixed on Su Manyin, burning with flames of anger and justice, as if to completely burn Su Manyin's disguise.

Afterwards, Li Ruochu walked slowly in front of Su Manyin with steady and firm steps.

She lowered her head slightly, her expression as cold as winter ice, and said without a trace of warmth: "If you rely on your own efforts to do these things, I will also admire your real ability. But what about you? You chose the most despicable means, taking shortcuts, and stealing the fruits of other people's labor. This behavior is shameful in itself and is simply a blasphemy to the design industry!"

Every word Li Ruochu said was like a heavy hammer, hitting Su Manyin's heart hard.

"I'm sorry, but you brought this upon yourself."

Li Ruochu straightened up slightly, crossed his arms, and there was no mercy in his eyes. "I can't help you, and I won't help you."

Her tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Li Ruochu is not a person with an overflowing heart of a saint. She has her own firm principles and bottom line, and will never lower her standards for anyone to help those who have done wrong.

What's more, when she was in the company, Su Manyin relied on her seniority and made things difficult for her.

Assigned her tedious and useless work, slandered her in front of her colleagues, and tried to suppress her development in the company.

Thinking of the past, Li Ruochu's disgust increased a little bit.

Now, she didn't add insult to injury, which was already a great respect for Su Manyin.

How could I possibly plead for her and let her return to the company?

Su Manyin listened to Li Ruochu's merciless words, and the expression on her face froze instantly. Her eyes, which were originally full of expectation, gradually dimmed, and were replaced by deep despair and unwillingness.

She opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but found that she had nothing to say. She could only stand there blankly, letting the tears flow.

"So, don't come here again. We won't hire you here anymore!" After Li Ruochu said this in a firm tone, he slowly shifted his gaze from Su Manyin to Feng Yizhou.

She raised her eyes slightly, with a questioning look in her eyes, as if confirming Feng Yizhou's attitude.

Feng Yizhou's face was grim as he slowly stood up from his seat. He stood tall and looked down at Su Manyin, who was lying on the ground, without any sympathy or hesitation in his eyes.

He frowned slightly, opened his thin lips, and spoke in a low voice with unquestionable majesty: "Get out, I don't want to say this again!"

The sound seemed to carry an invisible pressure, causing the air in the entire room to stagnate.

Su Manyin raised her head and stared blankly at the man she loved in the past. She never thought that the man who once made her heart beat so fast would say such cold and heartless words to her at this moment.

Her eyes were filled with disbelief, tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably, and her heart felt like it was being stabbed by countless needles at the same time, the pain was so severe that she could hardly breathe.

For a moment, tremendous pain and unwillingness surged into her heart like a tide, making it difficult for her to accept the cruel reality before her.

Su Manyin gritted her teeth, supported herself on the ground with her hands, and stood up with difficulty.

Her body was trembling slightly, her eyes shifted between Li Ruochu and Feng Yizhou, her expression instantly became extremely sinister, as if she had become a different person.

She stared at them fiercely and spoke word by word, "Since you two are so heartless, don't blame me. Just wait, one day I will make you regret your choice!"

Her voice was distorted with anger, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.

After saying that, Su Manyin turned around abruptly and ran out the door desperately.
