Shen Jie bit his lip, his heart filled with struggle.
Just then, Bo Jingcheng's phone rang. It was a call from the company, saying there was an urgent matter that needed his attention.
Bo Jingcheng warned Shen Jie, "You'd better think this through quickly, I don't have that much time to wait for you." After saying that, he hurriedly left the casino.
Shen Jie remained alone, looking dazed.
Meanwhile, Jiang Xinyue was having lunch in the company cafeteria.
She sat with her colleague Lin Yue, eating and chatting.
"Xinyue, I haven't seen you for so many days. What have you been busy with lately?"
Lin Yue looked concerned.
"Something came up at home, so I took leave from work," Jiang Xinyue said with a faint smile.
"Oh, I see! Anyway, I saw the news last time. Xinyue, I didn't expect you to be the famous designer Linda."
As she spoke, Lin Yue looked at her with admiration, her voice trembling with excitement, "You know what? I'm your fan. I especially love your designs. That's why I chose to join Shengshi Group. Because I want to be as excellent as you."
Jiang Xinyue chuckled softly, "Lin Yue, you have a hardworking and ambitious heart, you will succeed in whatever you do."
"Really?" Lin Yue asked with delight. "I can be as outstanding as you?"
"Of course, who knows, you might even be more outstanding than me in the future!"
Lin Yue blushed with excitement and held Jiang Xinyue's hand tightly, saying, "Xinyue, what you said is so encouraging! If I encounter any design problems in the future, can I ask you for advice?"
Jiang Xinyue smiled and nodded: "No problem, we're all colleagues, we should help each other out. We can exchange ideas."
Lin Yue nodded repeatedly, her eyes filled with gratitude and anticipation: "Xin Yue, you're such a good person! I knew it. Outstanding people are not only capable, but also have excellent character. Unlike some colleagues who are two-faced and extremely jealous."
Jiang Xinyue raised an eyebrow slightly and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is anyone in the company like this? Tell me, don't keep it to yourself."
Lin Yue hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "It's that Li Na, you know her, right? The project we worked on together last time, she took advantage of her good relationship with the design department manager and stole a lot of credit that should have belonged to our group. Everyone was angry but dared not speak out."
Jiang Xinyue frowned and gently patted Lin Yue's hand: "This kind of thing is indeed quite uncomfortable. However, we should focus on doing our jobs well; strength is the most important thing. Next time we encounter a similar situation, we should argue our case and not let her get away with it so easily."
Lin Yue nodded firmly, "Yes, I feel more confident now that you've said that. Before, everyone was afraid of offending her, since she has some connections in the company. But if we all unite, we can definitely change this unfair situation."
Jiang Xinyue smiled and said, "That's right, unity is strength. Let's pay more attention in the future, and if she does it again, we'll work together to find a way to deal with it."
As the two were talking, a commotion suddenly broke out at the restaurant entrance.
Jiang Xinyue and Lin Yue looked up and saw a group of people surrounding a stylishly dressed woman as she walked in.
The woman was Li Na. She looked around the restaurant with an arrogant air, her eyes filled with disdain.
Li Na seemed to notice Jiang Xinyue's gaze, turned her head, met Jiang Xinyue's eyes, and smiled meaningfully.
Lin Yue whispered from the side, "Xin Yue, her eyes are not friendly. You have to be careful."
Jiang Xinyue smiled gently, her expression calm: "It's alright, we'll deal with whatever comes our way."
Lin Yue reminded her again, "I heard that this Li Na has a crush on our Fu family."
"You are Jiang Xinyue?" As she spoke, Li Na had already walked up to Jiang Xinyue with an arrogant air.
"I am, how..." Before Jiang Xinyue could finish speaking, Li Na picked up the cold drink on the table and splashed it on her.
The drink was spilled on her chest, and a cold sensation instantly spread through her. Jiang Xinyue was so shocked by this sudden action that her eyes widened.
The surrounding colleagues gasped in surprise, and the restaurant fell silent as everyone's eyes were focused on the scene.
