Lu Ran gave her sister a thumbs up.
However, once back in the office, their workstations were piled high with documents.
Supervisor Xia Yubing pushed up her glasses and slowly walked towards the two of them.
She was a rigid and serious middle-aged woman—only in front of her subordinates, of course.
When the project manager came to inspect the department that time, Jiang Mianmian saw with her own eyes that this usually stern old lady suddenly smiled broadly, her crow's feet piling up.
"Where have you two been?" Xia Yubing glared at them, annoyed. "Even though you're just interns, you still have to follow company rules!"
"us……"
Before the two of them could speak, Xia Yubing slammed her hand on the table. "These documents must be finished today! You're not leaving get off work until they're done!"
Having just reprimanded the two, Xia Yubing turned around and saw the general manager coming to inspect the area, and immediately went up to him with a fawning expression.
Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran exchanged a glance.
Lu Ran said softly, "I don't know how someone like this, who bullies his subordinates and flatters his superiors, managed to climb to this position."
"It's because she knows how to 'seduce' her superiors that she was able to climb up the ranks." Jiang Mianmian smiled and turned the cat figurine on the table around. Lu Ran was surprised to find that the cat's eye was actually a miniature camera!
"sister?"
"Shh..." Jiang Mianmian gestured to her, looked around with her big eyes, and whispered to her, "You can see what our Manager Xia is like every day in here!"
"Sis, you're amazing!" Lu Ran exclaimed sincerely. "You must have received special agent training, right?"
Jiang Mianmian smiled slightly, her eyes indicating that Granny Xia was coming.
Lu Ran quickly sat down and got to work.
In fact, Jiang Mianmian herself didn't know why she installed a camera on the table. Did she really intend to expose the true colors of Manager Xia to the public in the future?
She just wanted to leave herself a way out.
When all else fails, she will let everyone see Xia Yubing's true colors.
Before she started working here, Lu Lishan taught her that no matter what she did, she had to have the ability to protect herself.
However, he added, "It doesn't matter if I can't cover everything myself. Mianmian, remember, the Lu family is behind you!"
Jiang Mianmian smiled gently. The daughter of the Lu family would never allow herself to be bullied.

By the time the two of them finished all the copywriting and left the building after get off work, it was almost 10 p.m.
The two girls were exhausted, but as soon as they went outside, they saw a luxury car and two handsome men standing out conspicuously in front of the company building.
"Ladies, do you have boyfriends?"
"What? No? What a coincidence, neither my brother nor I have girlfriends either!"
"Then how about we..."
As Huo Junyang spoke, he struck various cool poses, but before he could finish speaking, Huo Junyu punched him on the head.
"Ouch!"
"Why are you talking so much?" Huo Junyu glanced at him indifferently and stepped forward to take Jiang Mianmian's small hand.
Huo Junyang stuck his tongue out at the back of Lu Ran's head and then hugged her with a smile.
Unexpectedly, his older brother got into the car before him, sat in the back with Jiang Mianmian, and shook the car keys.
"Go ahead and drive!"
"I……"
Huo Junyang's eyes and nostrils flared as he reluctantly got into the driver's seat.
Lu Ran smiled and sat in the passenger seat. Huo Junyang carefully helped her fasten her seatbelt, and when he got close to her, he lightly brushed against her cheek.
The four of them went to a quiet little shop for a late-night snack.
The two girls looked exhausted, but the two brothers were full of energy, especially Huo Junyang, who ordered all the skewers on the table.
Huo Junyu helped Jiang Mianmian remove the bones from the grilled fish and placed the fish meat on her plate.
"You don't look well," he asked with concern. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"I just have a bit of a headache."
Huo Junyu frowned. "I've noticed you two have been working overtime a lot lately. Is your workload really that heavy?"
"Brother Junyu, you don't know!" Lu Ran took a sip of beer, "The people at the company bully us because we're interns. We're the ones who do all the heavy and tiring work! And that Granny Xia... she's absolutely inhumane when she's tormenting people!"
Huo Junyang was stunned.
Although he didn't know who Granny Xia was, he knew that anyone who bullied Ranran was his enemy.
Lu Ran told them everything that had happened during the day, emphasizing the sentence, "They said that neither of us has a boyfriend and no one likes us!"
"This is outrageous!" Huo Junyang became increasingly angry as he listened, and slammed his fist on the table.
"Ranran, I'll stand downstairs in your building tomorrow! Let's see who dares to say that again!"
"Huo Junyang," Huo Junyu said calmly, raising an eyebrow at him, "What were you doing standing downstairs at that place? Like a doorman?"
"Hey, bro?" Huo Junyang's eyes lit up. "This seems to be something you're better at!"
Huo Junyu picked up the bamboo skewer he had used to finish the barbecue and pretended to poke him.
"Alright, let's get serious." He put down his wine glass and looked at Jiang Mianmian and Lu Ran seriously. "In such a big project, there are many stakeholders involved. With so many people, things get complicated. And since you two are there as interns, it's normal that you're not taken seriously."
"So you two should pay more attention in your daily lives. Things like this will definitely happen from time to time. If it's not too serious, just bear with it."
“Yes, that’s what I think too.” Jiang Mianmian nodded. “Right now, accumulating experience is the priority, and also…”
"What else?" Huo Junyu looked at her with interest.
After a moment's thought, Jiang Mianmian said softly, "Also, I think that in projects with so many stakeholders, there must be people who are on the opposite side of my parents!"
