Chapter 178 Fighting Against It
After hearing this, Shen Yan sneered in her heart, "Don't forget, this is a project that Assistant Gao personally instructed, and it must be completely completed before this Friday."
Wei Jie remained calm, still smiling slowly as he asked, "Really? Did she really do that?"
The fire in Chen Yan's heart suddenly rose.
If she had not been able to apply for the company's funding authority directly and had to go through Wei Jie to complete the payment application process, she wouldn't have to look at his face at all!
The expression on her face instantly darkened, and her tone became much colder: "Then I want to ask you, when are you going to actually accomplish this?"
Wei Jie's face was filled with disapproval, with a hint of sarcasm on his lips. "Why should I follow suit? What does this have to do with me? Who are you? What qualifications do you have to give us orders here? Do you think it's your turn to dictate what happens in our purchasing department?"
As soon as he finished speaking, some people with a curious mind booed and whistled, their tone full of mockery, "Hey, hey, we are not her employees, why should we listen to her orders!"
Another person came up and smiled slyly, "Yeah, our job is basically buying and selling things. Only by working on our own projects can we get bonuses and commissions. What benefits can we get from working for her?"
Shen Yan was so angry that her face turned pale. For a moment, she couldn't even speak clearly. She could only point at them and shouted angrily: "You...you are going too far!"
How can we talk about work here?
This is simply asking for favors in a blatant way!
He has no shame at all and actually puts forward conditions and demands benefits so openly!
She had heard before that people in the manor's purchasing department were difficult to deal with, but because she had never encountered them personally, she didn't have a very deep understanding of the situation.
And today's experience finally made her see the true faces of these people - they had no secrets and only cared about profit!
And she happened to be the key person in this project. Because she was selling the magic scratching products, Lin Youfa promised to give her a share of the money, so she had the money to manage these people.
But what if it was another ordinary employee?
They only get a fixed salary and it is impossible for them to use their own money to bribe people in your purchasing department.
Will you just sit there and do nothing when the time comes?
Do you have to force others to pay you money to make a little progress?
What a black sheep!
She stared at Wei Jie, her eyes as cold as a knife. "When are you willing to do this? Tell me!"
Wei Jie was unhurried, shrugged his shoulders, and said in a relaxed tone, "When the time comes, we will do it."
At this moment, Shen Yan no longer wanted to speculate whether he had other thoughts.
She just felt a surge of irritation in her heart and simply concluded that he had bad intentions!
A surge of anger surged from her chest, and she said nothing more as she strode out of the purchasing department's office building.
As soon as she walked out of the building, she was stopped by a male employee.
The male employee conveyed the message expressionlessly: "Third Master, please come to the audio-visual room."
Under the guidance of that person, Shen Yan was quickly taken to the audio-visual room.
The moment I pushed the door open, the figure of Gao Zeyu came into view.
He leaned leisurely on the sofa, holding a glass of champagne in his hand, with a faint smile on his lips, as if he had already expected her arrival and was waiting for her.
As soon as he saw her come in, he spoke first, his tone calm but not to be ignored, "What you have experienced in the past two days, have you been very frustrated?"
Then, he gave her a meaningful look and said slowly, "As long as you follow me, no one will dare to let you suffer this kind of anger."
"From now on, you can do whatever you want with them. You have complete freedom. They might even become uneasy at your words, fearing you might get angry, and thus take the initiative to vent your anger and satisfy you."
"That's the benefit of being with you and me."
Chen Yan frowned slightly, a complicated look in her eyes. She looked at him seriously and asked, "Did they do this because of your private instructions?"
Gao Zeyu sneered, a hint of sarcasm on his lips. "Do they deserve my personal orders? I don't even need to say a word, and things will develop in the direction I want."
He raised his head, his eyes locked with hers, and said in a tone that brooked no argument: "I simply didn't take action so that you could experience the situation you're in firsthand."
"Everything you've experienced in the past few days is a reflection of your current life, a place full of thorns and traps, troubles and problems at every turn."
"You struggled with all your might in that environment, but you couldn't escape the shackles of fate. Isn't that a very difficult feeling?"
"But as long as you choose to rely on me, you can completely break free from this circle. You can have more resources, a higher status, and greater power. Then, no one will dare to embarrass you."
In fact, he had sent people to follow her secretly a long time ago.
What happened to Gao Xiaolin yesterday was precisely because he had laid a tight net behind the scenes, which allowed his people to detect and stop the other party's intentions in advance.
She had no idea how complicated and dangerous the world outside was.
She is still fantasizing about relying on so-called fair competition in this male-dominated society, which is simply impossible to achieve.
In this environment where the strong prey on the weak, the men used overwhelming brute force when fighting, and she was completely unable to compete with them in terms of strength.
With her frail little body, she still dared to confront those people head-on?
It's like using an egg to hit a rock, there's no chance of winning!
That's why he decided to let her suffer a little, so that she could experience firsthand that only by standing by him could she be truly safe and strong.
Deep down in his heart, he believed that he was willing to lower his posture to get closer to her, put aside his status, and even make concessions on his own initiative. He had tried his best to be kind and righteous.
Shen Yan's face was filled with shock and confusion. She asked him cautiously, "Third Master, if you really like me, then why do you insist that I must follow you? Do you really want to protect me, not control me?"
"Since you like me, why can't we date openly for a while and then get married naturally, right?"
Gao Zeyu silently put down the wine glass in his hand, slowly stood up, and walked towards her step by step.
This time his movements were gentle but irresistible, one hand resting on the sofa on the side of her body while the other hand gently lifted her up.
He slowly sat down, settling back onto the couch, and she was now straddling his lap.
He wanted to hug her tighter, but Shen Yan stretched out her slender palm, gently pressed his chest, and pushed a little distance away.
