Chapter 253 She is a woman after all, so please show some mercy
The next morning, Lu Linfeng knocked on Lin Yan's office door.
"Are you busy?" Lu Linfeng walked to Lin Yan's desk, glanced at the documents on her desk, and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"Yes, I'm going to check some documents." Lin Yan stood up and said, "Mr. Lu, what's going on?"
"Mr. Shang's company has launched a new project, and he's hosting a dinner party. It's quite high-end. You should come with me."
Lin Yan: "Mr. Lu, if it's not work-related, I won't go."
Lu Linfeng seemed to see through her thoughts: "Lin Yan, don't resist. This time is different. Among the people going there are many big names in the international translation circle, all well-known figures in the industry. It won't do you any harm to communicate with them more."
"Honestly, I feel like you're being wasted when you rejected the Master of Translation program and chose Huasheng. I'm afraid your talent is being wasted. So I want to promote you and let more people see your abilities."
Lu Linfeng's eyes were sincere, filled with genuine appreciation and kindness, without a trace of hypocrisy.
He is really nice.
But his kindness was an invisible pressure to her.
She spoke carefully: "Mr. Lu, thank you for your kindness. I know you have always taken good care of me. But... I am really married."
She knew that this sentence was a bit abrupt and might even make the atmosphere awkward, but she didn't want to give him a chance.
Lu Linfeng smiled knowingly upon hearing this: "Lin Yan, don't overthink it. Whether as a friend or as a boss, I hope you can get better and better. Just think of it as expanding your network. In short, it will benefit you and not harm you."
"That's it. I'll wait for you after get off work and we'll go together."
Before Lin Yan could say no, Lu Linfeng had already quickly left the office.
It's like this again.
have no choice.
In the evening, Lin Yan followed Lu Linfeng to the banquet.
Lu Linfeng took her through the crowd and introduced her to others.
After going around, Lin Yan couldn't remember how many people she had shaken hands with or how many times she had said "hello".
She is a little tired.
"I'm going to the bathroom." She said to Lu Lingfeng.
"good."
When she came out of the bathroom, a man in his thirties seemed to be waiting for her at the corner.
"Hello, Miss Lin."
Lin Yan nodded: "Hello, who are you?"
"I'm Mr. Shang's secretary. Mr. Shang wants to see you."
"See me?" Lin Yan: "Mr. Shang wants to see me?"
"Yes."
Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat and she felt strange.
She sent a WeChat message to Lu Linfeng and followed the man to the private lounge on the second floor.
The lounge is separated from the hustle and bustle downstairs by two different worlds.
Mr. Shang sat on the single sofa in high spirits, holding a purple clay teacup in his hand and looking out the window calmly.
Hearing footsteps, he slowly turned his head.
"Xiaolin, here I come."
"Mr. Shang." Lin Yan called respectfully.
Shang Lao extended his hand to her, with the dignity of someone who had been in a superior position for a long time: "Sit down."
Lin Yan sat down without being servile or overbearing: "Mr. Shang, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Mr. Shang did not respond immediately, but looked her up and down with his deep eyes, with scrutiny and even a hint of unquestionable contempt in his eyes.
Lin Yan was muttering to herself when Old Shang spoke in a commanding tone.
"Xiao Lin, I'm very direct, so I won't beat around the bush. In a word, don't bother Lin Feng, leave Hua Sheng, and stay away from Lin Feng."
Lin Yan frowned: "Mr. Shang, what do you mean by this?"
Shang Lao put down the teacup in his hand, his face full of judgment: "Lin Feng is a good boy, he has no ulterior motives and treats people sincerely. I will not allow a woman with impure thoughts to disturb his life."
"Xiao Lin, my first impression of you is actually very good, and I admit that you are very capable at work. However, there is still room for improvement in your character."
Faced with Mr. Shang's sudden change of attitude, Lin Yan was confused, but she also guessed some of the meaning of his words.
"Mr. Shang, Mr. Lu and I are only in a superior-subordinate relationship. I have never had any inappropriate thoughts about him. I'm afraid you have misunderstood something."
Mr. Shang didn't want to waste any more words with her and waved his hand: "There's no point in talking any more. In short, as a married woman, don't even think about seducing Lin Feng. If you don't leave Huasheng, I will have to use some tough measures to force you to leave."
Having said that, there is no need to talk any further.
Lin Yan was speechless and wanted to laugh, but she still said what she had to say before leaving.
"Mr. Shang, I don't know where you heard these rumors, but I have to tell you one thing: I have no interest in Mr. Lu. I have rejected him more than once. My husband is the only one in my heart."
"You can confirm this with Mr. Lu. As for leaving Huasheng, if you think it's necessary, I'll resign. I can work anywhere."
"Then I'll go first, take care."
Just after she left, a small door on the side of the lounge was pushed open.
A gentle-looking man wearing glasses came out with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Shang."
Mr. Shang picked up his teacup again, glanced towards the door, and shook his head with emotion: "Mr. Song, I really didn't expect Lin Yan to have such bad character and values. If you hadn't taken the initiative to tell me about her, I would have really thought she was a good girl."
Song Yanzheng: "Yeah, I didn't expect that. She knew I was married, but she repeatedly used work as an excuse to sabotage my marriage and family, causing tension between me and my wife. She's still mad at me and has been ignoring me for over two months after running away abroad with the children."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shang frowned. "We dined together at the last bidding conference, and I sensed something was amiss between you and Lin Yan. I thought you... Mr. Song, it seems I misunderstood you."
"Mr. Shang, you are the elder, just call me Xiao Song."
Song Yanzheng continued, "Lin Yan may seem content, but she's actually quite something. I can also see that President Lu is very devoted to her. I'm not trying to sow discord, but I just don't want to see your godson, whom you cherish like your own son, go astray because of a woman."
"Xiao Song, thank you for telling me this." Mr. Shang took a sip of tea and said in a stern and decisive voice, "Lin Yan, no matter how capable she is, is not worthy of being in the translation industry. I will teach her a lesson so that she will remember this."
Song Yanzheng's eyes moved slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Shang Lao, what lesson are you going to give her? She is a woman after all, so you should show some mercy."
"A small lesson." Shang Lao: "Ban her and tell her not to appear in the translation circle in the future."
The goal was achieved, and a glimmer of success flashed in Song Yanzheng's eyes behind the lenses.
"Mr. Shang, your idea coincides with mine."
