Chapter 178 Yan Li is not Lin Shu's husband, so he doesn't need to listen to his orders

The tone seemed to be asking, but in fact the decision had already been made.

Zhou Yanli declined to comment, he was not stupid.

The light in Wen Xin's eyes quickly dimmed, and the pride that was just on her face was instantly shattered by Gu Fujing's words.

The corners of Jiang Hai's beautiful fox eyes were tilted, and there was light in his eyes when he looked at Lin Shu.

"Wow, great. Sister Lin will be the vice president of the company, and then I can--"

Zhou Yanli glanced over coldly, and Jiang Hai immediately shut up.

Wen Xin couldn't hold back her expression. She pretended to be calm as she looked at Gu Fujing, her red lips slightly parted: "I don't agree."

She smiled faintly, "Of course, it's not that I have any objection to Miss Lin, nor is it due to any personal grudge. I'm considering this from the company's perspective."

Jiang Hai glanced at Wen Xin, and the more he looked, the more he felt that he was very different from the Vivian in his mind.

"Mr. Gu, don't forget that Lin Shu destroyed the entire game for his own benefit. Isn't this enough of a lesson for Fei Yuan to learn?

I admit that Ms. Lin has certain technical capabilities, and the company has also entrusted her with the important task of developing this new game, which is enough to keep her busy.

As the company's vice president, I'm responsible for not only the development of technical programs but also the operations of several departments under me. I believe Lin Shu has the ability, but I heard you have children. Don't you need me?"

The warm words were meant to remind Lin Shu not to think that he could really compete with her just because she left.

Even if she no longer works at Feiyuan Technology, she will not be given her position.

Moreover, she believed that Lin Shu was a complete idiot in company management, otherwise Wei Ting Technology, which was so profitable, would still have been taken over by Zhou Yanli and given to herself.

It is easy to imagine how ridiculous it was for Lin Shu to try to be smart and imitate her outside.

Not being recognized by Zhou Yanli, he tried his best to show off his peacock tail in Feiyuan Technology, hoping to get promoted by using Gu Fujing.

I'm afraid Gu Fujing was just temporarily bewitched by her beauty and made such a stupid decision.

Lin Shu smiled: "Wherever the company needs me, I'll be there."

Gu Fujing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Lin Shu agreed.

In fact, there was no such thing as a company voting to decide whether Lin Shu would be the vice president. He made it up.

However, he recognized Lin Shu's abilities. He always wronged a talent like her to work as an engineer in the technical department. Sooner or later, she would run away.

It would be better to arrange an important position for Lin Shu at this time and keep her.

Gu Fujing really didn't want to lose Lin Shu. Even if she was married, it didn't matter. However, he couldn't be sure of Lin Shu's feelings at the moment. If she showed even a little bit of love for him, he wouldn't care whether she was married or not.

Emperor Minghuang of Tang dared to steal his daughter-in-law. What can be done to a man who doesn't cherish his wife? He stole her with his own ability.

Wen Xin was actually deliberately trying to warn Lin Shu, hoping that she would give up, but she didn't expect that she would be so shameless.

The waiter came and started heating cups and pouring tea for everyone. The conversation paused and the box fell into deathly silence. Everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts, except Jiang Hai, who was confused. He looked at this and that, wanting to speak but not knowing what to say.

After the waiter left, Wen Xin picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, but her eyes were fixed on Zhou Yanli.

"Mr. Zhou, what do you think? After a woman gets married and has family ties, she should still put her family first, right?

I remember that Lin Shu often asked for leave during this period, and the excuse was always family matters. The position of vice president is so important that it is almost impossible for her to be absent. Do you really think she is qualified for this job?"

Gu Fujing listened to their conversation and finally couldn't help but interrupt.

"Why should I ask Yanli about Lin Shu's affairs? Yanli is not her husband, so he doesn't need to make decisions for her."

Jiang Hai, who was standing next to him, suddenly spat out a mouthful of hot tea, and everyone looked at him.

He pointed at the teacup hurriedly: "It's hot, hot, this tea seems to be 160 degrees."

Zhou Yanli glanced at him coldly and gave him a warning look: "Then wait until it cools down before drinking it."

Jiang Hai didn't dare to say a word, feeling that his cousin and his two women were quite aggressive, and there was also Mr. Gu who was messing around and knew nothing about it.

If I had known that coming here for dinner was not to chat and brag with my lovely sister-in-law, but to be my cousin's Shura field, he would have to find two more relatives and friends who knew the situation to come and see it.

Isn't this much more interesting than boring melodrama?

Wen Xin was angry, but she couldn't show it.

Zhou Yanli poured a cup of tea for Lin Shu. Everyone saw it. Gu Fujing was shocked, Wen Xin's face was distorted, and her calm and composed expression was about to break.

Lin Shu's face darkened slightly. What exactly did Zhou Yanli want to do?

"The company is yours, so you have the final say on who you choose. Vice President Lin is so talented, I'm even thinking of poaching her to work for Shengyin—"

Gu Fujing blurted out: "No, she is mine."

Zhou Yanli's eyes suddenly darkened, and the dark background color in his pupils was so thick that it could not be dissolved.

Like a sign of anger.

The cup in Wen Xin's hand rested against the corner of her lips, and the curved line seemed to be mocking.

Lin Shu is good enough, she has bewitched Gu Fujing to bits. But the more she does this, the more Zhou Yanli will probably look down on her.

Showing off one's beauty is the lowest form of behavior a woman can use.

Perhaps realizing that he had spoken out of turn, Gu Fujing quickly changed his words.

"What I mean is, Lin Shu is from Feiyuan Technology. Besides, we are sister companies to Shengyin and the future Weiting Technology. There are plenty of talented people in the market. You two should stop poaching people from me. I won't let them go."

No matter how Gu Fujing explained, Zhou Yanli was already very unhappy just because of that sentence.

There was a hint of sharpness in his eyes. He tapped the table with his bony hands and said casually, "What if Miss Lin herself wants to go to Zhou's?"

Lin Shu: “Heh—”

Gu Fujing was very nervous. Lin Shu's behavior seemed to have nothing to do with Zhou Yanli. Zhou Yanli had indeed been acting strangely these past few days. It was not possible that he really fell in love with Lin Shu as Song Huaiyuan said.

Lin Shu: "Mr. Zhou is such a joke. There's no way I'd go to a place like Zhou's."

For six years, he had not allowed her to set foot in the empire she and he had built together. The first time she saw Sheng Yin's full appearance was during the team-building event between the two companies at Feiyuan Technology.

Zhou Yanli had a sullen face and said nothing. Wen Xin was afraid that the topic would get further off topic, so she interrupted him directly.

"The food is here. Since President Gu has decided to promote Lin Shu to Vice President, I'm happy too. Let's consider today's meal a celebration of Lin Shu's promotion."

She proposed to raise a toast to Lin Shu, because she had just heard that Zhou Yanli wanted Lin Shu to return to the Zhou family.

How could that be possible? If she married Zhou Yanli in the future, Zhou's should be her warm home base. She didn't want her husband's ex-wife to be an eyesore in the company.

At worst, I can just give her some alimony and tell her to get lost as far away as possible.

The tense conversation between Zhou Yanli and Lin Shu came to a halt. Zhou Yanli was very unhappy, but did not show it.

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together. During the meal, Jiang Hai kept trying to liven up the atmosphere, but no one paid any attention. Gu Fujing then asked him a few questions symbolically. Most of the time, everyone ate in silence.

Gu Fujing had never felt the atmosphere was so depressing before. This was the first time.

The only one who seemed to be enjoying the meal was Lin Shu.

All the food that Gu Fu ordered was her favorite. If Zhou Yanli hadn't been beside her, she could have had two plates of lobster on the table.

It affected my appetite a little, but not much.

After eating and drinking, Gu Fujing sent them back.

Gu Fujing looked at Lin Shu and said, "Let me take you there."

Zhou Yanli directly took Lin Shu's handbag, and it looked so natural, as if he had always done this.

"I'll take my cousin and Vice President Lin, and you take President Wen. Today, I saw Jiang Hai and Vice President Lin having a very interesting conversation about procedures. Since it's convenient for them, they can chat for a while longer in my car."

Jiang Hai was speechless. Wen Xin never expected that Zhou Yanli was unwilling to even see her off.

Gu Fujing couldn't tell what was so strange. From beginning to end, Zhou Yanli acted as if he was competing with everyone for Lin Shu, but neither his words nor Lin Shu's behavior made it seem as if they had an improper relationship.

It sounded so normal for him to send Jiang Dashen and Lin Shu away, so normal that Gu Fujing felt it was too abnormal.

He was not like this before. He often went out with Wen Xin, but now he doesn't even want Wen Xin anymore.

Wen Xin finally couldn't bear it anymore and said with a dark face: "You don't have to send me, I can take a taxi myself."

She glanced at Zhou Yanli with a resentful look in her eyes, but her words were full of magnanimity and tolerance.

"Vice President Lin is a girl. You must send her home safely."

Lin Shu was too lazy to act with Zhou Yanli, so she walked out early. Jiang Hai seemed to be possessed by her, and immediately followed her as soon as she left.

Zhou Yanli didn't hear clearly what Wen Xin said, and without even saying hello to Gu Fujing, he left the box first.

Gu Fujing walked at the end, looking thoughtful.

The warm high heels were clearly visible in the empty restaurant aisle.

"Does Yanli know Lin Shu?"

He suddenly asked Wen Xin a question that caught her off guard.

I always feel that everything is weird.

Wen Xin gritted her teeth in hatred, but still pretended nothing happened.

"We met at Feiyuan. Lin Shu is a very vengeful person. Last time, she didn't agree with her. The game can be programmed to self-destruct. This time, Mr. Gu, you should let her be the main person in charge. Yan Li will definitely invest in this project if he likes it. He is nervous about Lin Shu mainly because of the project.

I don't care, so why should you? Business is business, and using tricks for profit is commonplace in the marketplace. Besides, Lin Shu is so cheap, and she'll work hard for him if you give her some sweeteners and emotional value. Yan Li, as the head of the Zhou Group, condescends to her, so she'll be happy no matter what.

I agree with Yan Li's approach in this regard, but I really can't bear to part with my man. Otherwise, if Lin Shu fell for her beauty trap, Yan Li would have been a great prospect. Unfortunately, I'm a germaphobe and don't like sharing a man with other women."

Gu Fujing felt a little unhappy when he heard her go off on a tangent and speak so badly of Lin Shu.

"Lin Shu isn't that kind of person. She's married and won't cheat on you. You should trust Yan Li, and he's not the kind of philandering man—"

?

Song Huaiyuan's words suddenly popped into his mind again. Yan Li would not use Wen Xin as a trick. In fact, he must be having a lot of fun in private.

Gu Fujing's heart sank.

Wen Xin's expression looked even uglier.

"Yan Li is certainly not that kind of person. He looks down on Lin Shu."
