Li Anran stood frozen in place as she watched the two leave. She hadn't expected that Old Madam Lu wouldn't be angry with Jian Ruoxi for her words today, but instead would scold her. She felt a little flustered. Could it be that Old Madam Lu had changed her opinion of Jian Ruoxi?
She suddenly felt that Madam Lu was no longer the grandmother who was willing to help her. It seemed that she was getting further and further away from her. She sat there resentfully, her face full of anger.
"Miss Li, would you like to continue your meal?" the maid asked as she stepped forward. The Lu family had no good feelings towards Li Anran; this woman's two-faced nature was truly terrifying.
But since she's here, they, as servants, have no choice but to serve her, which is incredibly unlucky to even think about.
"Hmm." Li Anran was in a bad mood and had no appetite to continue eating, so she simply left the restaurant and returned to her room.
She sat on her large bed, looking at the extremely luxurious surroundings. She had to find a way to make Jian Ruoxi leave the Lu family forever, otherwise Jian Ruoxi would be her biggest obstacle. Especially after seeing the attitude of Lu Shen and the old lady of the Lu family today, she felt a sense of crisis.
"Jian Ruoxi, I will make sure you get out of the Lu family." Li Anran slammed her fist on the bed in anger, stood up and changed her clothes, since no one in the Lu family was paying attention to her anyway.
I wonder what Old Madam Lu is doing right now. Lu Shen isn't home, so she might as well go to the company and give Zhan Yaxin, who dared to act against her yesterday, a good talking-to.
She changed into an elegant office lady outfit, put on a professional makeup look, looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction, slung her Chanel bag over her shoulder, and left the Lu family home in high heels.
Anyway, I have plenty of time. Sooner or later I'll get rid of Jian Ruoxi. I can't rush things. Otherwise, things will backfire. If I really lose Madam Lu's support, then there will be no one to help me.
Arriving at the company, she sat in her office thinking about how to get back at Zhan Yaxin. Then she thought about what had happened that morning, and Li Anran felt like she was going crazy.
"Zhan Yaxin, go buy me a cup of coffee." She walked out of the office and saw Zhan Yaxin busy at work, giving her an unpleasant look as she gave the order.
Seeing that her expression was off, the others who were chatting and laughing all turned their heads away and buried themselves in their work.
Zhan Yaxin was also very unhappy. This woman seemed to have a serious illness. It's not like the company doesn't have a tea room, and she still had to buy her own. You should know that Hua Rui's coffee uses top-quality coffee beans that are air-freighted from abroad, which is incomparable to ordinary coffee shops.
However, given that Li Anran was now her financial manager, she could only swallow her anger and stand up: "Manager, what flavor would you like to drink?"
"Iced Americano, quick!" Li Anran was furious and just wanted something cold to cool down.
"Okay." Zhan Yaxin nodded, stood up, and walked outside.
Seeing her obediently follow her orders and walk outside, Li Anran felt a great sense of satisfaction. Hmph, so what if she can't stand me? She still has to do whatever I tell her to do.
Li Anran felt a bit better and returned to the office with her head held high. Her other colleagues curled their lips in disdain when they saw her like this.
Everyone knows how Li Anran got her position as finance director. No one would truly submit to someone who got in through connections; in fact, they would find her utterly disgusting.
So everyone just went along with her orders, otherwise they would be retaliated against by this woman. They didn't have Li Anran's abilities and connections. However, everyone felt sorry for Zhan Yaxin, who was originally a candidate for the position of finance manager.
Moreover, Zhan Yaxin's work ability is obvious to everyone, so it is understandable that Li Anran wants to target her. After all, no one would easily let go of the opportunity to mess with their biggest competitor at work.
Zhan Yaxin went downstairs, bought a cup of black coffee, and came up. She knocked on Li Anran's door: "Manager, here's your iced Americano."
"Are you trying to kill me with thirst by moving so slowly?" Li Anran glared at Zhan Yaxin and angrily rebuked her, "You can't even do such a small thing right. I really don't know how Huarui managed to hire trash like you."
Zhan Yaxin was so angry that she almost got into a fight with Li Anran. Only ten minutes had passed since she came downstairs, and this woman clearly had a full glass of water next to her. Was she really dying of thirst, yet she had the time to scold her?
"I'm sorry, I'll be more careful next time." Zhan Yaxin didn't want to have a conflict with this woman at the company, so she could only apologize.
Seeing that Zhan Yaxin didn't argue with her, Li Anran felt bored. She waved her hand to let her leave and casually threw the coffee into the trash can. She wouldn't drink anything this woman bought; who knew if someone had spat in it?
Zhan Yaxin was very displeased with her behavior, but she still turned around and went back.
When the others saw Zhan Yaxin return looking unwell, they quickly went up to her and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Zhan Yaxin shook her head: "What could it be? It was just running an errand for our master."
Other colleagues looked at Zhan Yaxin with pity: "It's tough on you. She's obviously trying to put you down, and you still have to put up with it."
"It's just for work. Besides, I can just coax a woman who got to where she is by relying on her body. Do you think I'd lose my job because of some idiot?" Zhan Yaxin said as she sat down at her workstation. She had a lot of work to do lately and needed to get busy.
"That's true, but what if she keeps targeting you like this?" the colleague continued. They could tell that Li Anran wasn't keen on making things easy for Zhan Yaxin.
Zhan Ya sighed and replied, "What can I do? I can't bring myself to sell my body for a job."
As soon as she finished speaking, her colleague showed a look of horror and quickly returned to her workstation, lowering her head to work. Zhan Yaxin was a little puzzled; what was wrong? Why did her face suddenly turn so pale?
"Zhan Yaxin, are you chatting with your colleagues during work hours?" A sinister voice came from behind her.
Zhan Yaxin rolled her eyes speechlessly. This woman was really persistent: "Manager, is there anything else?"
"Come to my office right now!" Li Anran had naturally heard Zhan Yaxin's words, and she called her to her office with a grim expression.
