After confirming that the contract would be signed tomorrow, Mays left.
Zheng Lili returned to the office like a lost soul. When Liu Meixiang saw that Zheng Lili looked like she had lost her mind, she knew that Zheng Lili had worked in vain.
"Stunned now? There's no way she could buy one. She hasn't even bought a small apartment, so how could she possibly buy a shop?" Liu Meixiang said dismissively, curling her lip.
Zheng Lili stared blankly at Liu Meixiang's constantly opening and closing mouth, completely unaware of what Liu Meixiang was saying.
"I saw the director left, so I'm going home first. If I run into colleagues from other departments, remember to cover for me." Liu Meixiang picked up her bag, humming a song, and left work early.
Liu Meixiang was unlucky; the director forgot to bring his documents when he went out, and when he came back to get them, he happened to see Liu Meixiang walking out of the bus with a bag in her hand.
The director wasn't quite sure if it was Liu Meixiang, but when he arrived at Liu Meixiang and Zheng Lili's office, only Zheng Lili was there.
"Where did Liu Meixiang go?" the director asked, frowning.
"Huh? Oh, Sister Meixiang went to the restroom." Zheng Lili was used to covering for Liu Meixiang, and lies came out of her mouth without hesitation.
"The restroom? Fine, I need to talk to her. I'll wait for her." The director sat down in a chair and said with a gloomy face.
Zheng Lili panicked immediately. Sister Meixiang had already left work, and the director was here keeping watch. Wouldn't this give them away?
"Director, look, it's already this late. Whatever it is, let's talk about it tomorrow. I promise I'll have Sister Meixiang come to see you first when we get to work tomorrow!"
"Bang!" The director slammed his hand on the table, startling Zheng Lili.
"You don't need to lie for her, I saw it all! Tomorrow, when Liu Meixiang comes to work, both of you come to my office." After saying that, the director left with a long face.
Zheng Lili was in a panic. As soon as she saw that it was time to leave work, she quickly grabbed her bag and rushed out. Zheng Lili wanted to remind Sister Meixiang that the director knew about her leaving early.
But when she got to the bus stop, Zheng Lili suddenly realized that she didn't know where Meixiang lived.
Zheng Lili didn't sleep well all night, she kept dreaming that Sister Meixiang had been fired.
Liu Meixiang was the complete opposite of Zheng Lili; she slept exceptionally well that night and even had a wonderful dream, so much so that she almost didn't want to get up.
This caused her to wake up late the next day, but Liu Meixiang wasn't worried. She knew that if the director asked, Zheng Lili would definitely cover for her.
Liu Meixiang pushed open the office door with a smile and saw the director sitting in her seat, while Zheng Lili was looking at her with a panicked expression.
Liu Meixiang calmly entered the office, completely ignoring Zheng Lili's panic. She assumed that Zheng Lili had made another mistake and was being scolded by the director.
"Good morning, Director!" Liu Meixiang nodded to the director. "Director, what did Lili do wrong?"
"..." When the director saw that Liu Meixiang was so calm despite being late, he knew that this was not the first time she had been late; she was clearly a repeat offender!
“Director, you know Lili is usually absent-minded and forgetful, it’s common for her to be careless. Why are you making a fuss about it with her…”
"Bang!" The director couldn't stand it anymore and slammed his hand on the table, interrupting Liu Meixiang.
No wonder he had such a bad impression of Zheng Lili before, always thinking that she couldn't do anything right. It turns out that this was all thanks to Liu Meixiang!
"Director! What are you doing? You scared me!" Liu Meixiang was a little unhappy, feeling that the director had been acting strangely all morning, which was really annoying!
"Scared? You're the one who's scared!" The director sneered, pointing at Liu Meixiang and shouting.
Liu Meixiang was taken aback and turned to look at Zheng Lili, who was constantly winking at her.
Liu Meixiang: She gave me a wink, wasn't it to get me to speak up for her?
"Do you think everyone else is stupid, and you're the only smart one?"
"No, Director, what did I do wrong? Did someone report me to you? Director, don't believe those people, they..." Liu Meixiang glanced at Zheng Lili, looked at the director, and had a wronged expression on her face.
"Shut up! Do I need anyone to tell me? I saw it with my own eyes!"
"You...you saw? Director, are you sure you're not mistaken? You know me best, don't you?" Liu Meixiang panicked a little. The director saw? What did he see?
"I can tell whether it's a misunderstanding or not! I must have been blind before to think you were hardworking. You're probably the laziest person here!"
"Director, how can you wrong me like this? When did I slack off?" Liu Meixiang stretched her neck and shouted indignantly.
"Injustice? Ha! Then tell me, why are you late today?" The director was amused by Liu Meixiang's words. He leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and waited for Liu Meixiang's excuse.
"Late?" Liu Meixiang glared at the useless Zheng Lili, then her eyes lit up with an idea. "Director, you're mistaken. I arrived a long time ago, and I even cleaned the office!"
"Oh! You've been here for a while? What were you doing just now?" the director asked Liu Meixiang with a smile.
Zheng Lili took a step back and secretly tugged at Liu Meixiang's sleeve, hoping she would stop talking. The more she said, the more serious the consequences would be.
"It's Zheng Lili. She said her stomach hurts, so I went out to buy her some medicine." Liu Meixiang saw the director smile and assumed that the director had been fooled by her. She put one hand behind her back, pushed Zheng Lili's hand away, and said calmly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Liu Meixiang, Liu Meixiang! You really are a talent!" The director looked at Liu Meixiang, who lied without batting an eye, and felt that it was a waste of her talent for her to work here.
