Chapter 113 Resignation
Zhu Lanlan opened her mouth to say something, but in the end her lips just trembled slightly and she said nothing.
The look of wanting to say something but stopping revealed reluctance, regret and a little bit of complicated emotions.
The atmosphere was stagnant at this moment.
Finally, she just spoke, her voice a little colder than before, "Okay, go sign the contract."
Her tone suddenly became cold, as if the emotions just now had never existed.
"However, you have to keep what I said today in your heart. Only you and I know it."
She paused for a moment, her gaze sharpening slightly, as if to remind or warn, "I already know everything about you. It would be too easy for me to control you, even to suppress and retaliate against you."
She said it lightly, but behind every word was a sharp threat, "You have no room to fight back."
She snorted coldly, her eyes filled with a hint of complacency and threat, "Also, don't even think about quitting and walking away."
Although she threatened to fire her to appease the other party, Zhu Lanlan didn't really want Shen Yan to leave.
On the contrary, if Shen Yan really let it go, she would probably be the first to jump out and stop it.
"I've said it many times before, I want to control you, and you won't be able to resist."
Her words were full of condescending superiority, as if she had already firmly controlled the situation.
She was not threatening, but stating a reality.
She finally met a beautiful person who was a perfect match for her. Whether it was appearance, personality, or background and experience, they all met her requirements - she would not let him go easily no matter what.
Shen Yan did think about resigning.
It was not an impulsive whim, but one of choice made after careful consideration.
She had thought about waiting for a few more months, until the storm was over, and then quietly leaving here while everyone was not paying attention.
She has been prepared since she started on this path.
Now that she was already here, she wasn't afraid of not being able to find a way to leave.
Now that she's on this boat, is she afraid she won't be able to get off?
What means can Assistant Zhu use to control her?
As soon as this question came to mind, Shen Yan's mind seemed to be hit hard by something, and she could hardly breathe.
She originally thought that as long as she avoided Zhu Lanlan and did not have a direct conflict with her, she could live a peaceful life. However, reality did not seem to allow her to get away so easily.
So, what methods can Assistant Zhu use to put her life into passivity and crisis?
On the other hand, what can Liu Chenyan use to attack Zhu Lanlan?
She was just an ordinary clerk, and had no bargaining chips to match the other party, and she didn't even have the power to resist.
Zhu Lanlan is a senior manager in the company, and her power and connections are already intertwined. It is ridiculous to want to bring her down.
Zhu Lanlan smiled lightly, a slightly indifferent smile on her lips, but her eyes did not hold a trace of smile at all. They could even be described as cold and ruthless. "Don't you believe it?"
Her voice was not loud, but it revealed an unquestionable power that made it impossible to ignore her presence.
Then she slowly said, "Do you think I dare not touch you? Do you not believe that I can really cancel the lease contract for your snack stand on Liulin Road? And not let you renew it?"
There was a sense of oppression in his tone, as if he was pushing her into a corner step by step.
Then she continued, "Do you believe it or not, Lin Youfa has already promised you a low price for the goods, and he can take them back without hesitation when the time comes?"
This was a naked threat, and every word hit the point, leaving her unable to defend herself.
Not only that, her tone grew colder as she continued, "Believe it or not, by that time, without a stable stall and a steady supply of goods—if you were to start over somewhere else, setting up a stall under the overpass, I could have people like Cheng Yingzi constantly giving you trouble. They'd deprive you of even the most basic stability in business."
She said this with no expression on her face, but every word was sharp.
At this moment, Shen Yan's face turned extremely pale in an instant, as if all the blood had been drained from her.
She finally realized that she had completely underestimated the woman in front of her. What was worse was that all the things she thought were hidden very deeply were actually known to her by the other party.
She actually...
Know everything!
What terrified her the most was that when Zhu Lanlan said these words, her expression was calm and composed, there was no wavering in her eyes, and her voice was steady and powerful.
That calm and confident attitude seemed to declare that everything was under her control.
"For example..."
Zhu Lanlan's voice rang out again, her tone still calm. "You also know about that detergent project, right? The investment is not small."
She paused briefly, then continued bluntly, "I can make them withdraw their investment with just one word. This may be difficult for you, but it's not difficult for me."
Hearing this, Shen Yan's face turned even paler.
My heart almost stopped beating.
That was a brand new attempt, a new opportunity that might have helped her escape from her current predicament, but now it was in danger of being ruined.
But how did Zhu Lanlan know these details?
Every piece of information she provided was so accurate and deadly, there was definitely more to it than just speculation.
How much information does she have that she doesn't know?
What other plans does she have that she hasn't revealed?
A series of questions came to her mind, but she couldn't find the answers to any of them.
The only thing she was sure of was that this woman's intelligence network was far larger and more complex than she had imagined. She was too naive to even imagine that she could escape this.
While Shen Yan was still in shock, Zhu Lanlan suddenly sneered, "Why are you still trying to hide? Do you really think you can get away with just resigning? Don't dream!"
Her voice pierced her heart like an arrow.
Faced with such pressure and questioning, Shen Yan suddenly panicked and quickly nodded to express her position: "I will not leave, nor will I submit my resignation..."
Zhu Lanlan nodded slightly with satisfaction and waved her hand gently, "Okay, now go back to your post."
Finally, she added, "As long as you behave yourself, don't try to do anything crooked, and don't be lazy and slack off, just do your job as it should be done."
After she finished speaking, she didn’t look at Shen Yan again, but just sat there with a calm expression.
Shen Yan seemed to have lost her soul. She nodded mechanically and slowly walked out of the room.
That section of corridor seemed particularly long, and every step seemed as heavy as iron.
When she was on her way back to the purchasing department and passing the corridor, she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her, "Hey!"
She suddenly turned around and saw Fu Yajing, standing there with a bright smile on her face, patting her shoulder gently with one hand.
She was stunned for a few seconds before forcing a smile and responding, "Yeah...it's you."
