Chapter 50
Because she had to go to the factory later, Xia Ruirui left her mobile phone at the repair shop, took out a spare phone from the drawer and went to work.
After handing over the embroidery pattern to the customer and discussing the details, she had dinner with her colleagues and it was almost 9 o'clock in the evening when she got home.
Xia Ruirui logged into the game and found that Shen Yuqing had been waiting for her.
After learning that the lonely wolf was Shen Yuqing, she felt at ease every time she returned home and saw someone online.
It’s like seeing the light on in your home downstairs in the community, and your heart feels warm.
It was as if someone had left a light on for her, making her feel that there was a little more hope in her life.
Xia Ruirui didn’t play games with Shen Yuqing immediately, but went to take a hot bath first.
She had just dried her hair and before she had time to blow-dry it, she saw a message from someone.
Lonely Wolf: [What other reasons did you and your ex break up for? ]
She had originally forgotten what happened in the morning, but after hearing this, she remembered the nine-square grid that someone had sent her.
She chuckled twice and really thought about the things she didn't like about him.
Although Shen Yuqing at this time had no idea that the ex she was talking about was himself.
Beauty Wolf: [Also, there are too many women around him who covet him, and he behaves in an ambiguous manner with his female colleagues.]
Xia Ruirui's words originally had a hidden meaning, which was to allude to the fact that someone let his secretary with big breasts sit on his lap.
But she was afraid that being too specific would expose her identity, so she used a female colleague instead.
But I don’t know whether Shen Yuqing really didn’t think about it that way, or he found out but was pretending to be stupid.
His reaction was indifferent, even dull.
Because it was already late, the two of them only played two games before logging off.
After logging off, Xia Ruirui did not rest immediately. Instead, she drank a cup of coffee and finished drawing the draft of the embroidery pattern before going to bed.

The next afternoon, Shen Yuqing's studio.
Because it was Friday, the atmosphere in the studio was much more cheerful than Monday to Thursday.
Among them are Zhang Xiaotiao and Yang Chunchun.
"Where do you go after work?"
"go home."
"Why go home?"
"Lie down and do nothing."
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything else, Zhang Xiaotiao looked at Yang Chunchun with a hint of curiosity: "What about you?"
"Same as you."
The two looked at each other and laughed in tacit understanding.
Zhang Xiaotiao glanced at Shen Yuqing's glass room and asked Yang Chunchun beside him in a low voice, "Why did Brother Chen suddenly ask Li Yunting to come in?"
"I don't know." Yang Chunchun was also a little curious, "Brother Chen just called Li Juan in as well."
Zhang Xiaotiao had some guesses: "Could it be that Brother Chen wants to fire Li Juan?"
"How is that possible?" Yang Chunchun retorted subconsciously, "You came late so you don't know."
"Because Li Juan didn't get the kickbacks from the brand, she ruined the contract between Brother Chen and the brand."
"Brother Chen didn't fire her because he was concerned that Li Juan was the old man who brought him into the circle."
Although Zhang Xiaotiao was a little surprised after hearing this, he still felt that his intuition was correct this time.
"But Li Yunting always makes trouble. Last time, Sister Ruirui saw her fall on Brother Shen, her face turned green."
Yang Chunchun snorted coldly, his voice also tinged with anger: "It would be better to fire both of them."
I wonder what's going on in the minds of Li Juan and Li Yunting, the aunt and niece.
They probably thought Shen Yuqing was in their pocket, so when Brother Shen was not around, they started to give orders to the people in their studio.
The studio was in a chaotic state of affairs. No one liked this aunt and niece pair, let alone Xia Ruirui's two die-hard fans - Zhang Xiaotiao and Yang Chunchun.
They even disliked the two of them, but they also knew that their words were insignificant, so they just endured it.
The two were still whispering, discussing why Brother Chen asked them to come in, and soon they heard Li Juan's throwing a tantrum from the glass room.
Crying, making a fuss, and then threatening to hang herself are Li Juan's usual tricks.
"I was the one who brought you into this industry. Now you want to fire me? I'm telling you! No! Impossible!!"
She became more and more excited as she spoke, and her voice broke at the end of the word "impossible".
Her voice was so sharp and hysterical that even people outside the glass could hear her.
Some are sad and some are happy.
Outside, Yang Chunchun and Zhang Xiaotiao exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Although they didn't know what made Brother Chen finally make up his mind, they both vaguely guessed that it must have something to do with Sister Ruirui.
"The old witch is finally leaving." Yang Chunchun felt relieved.
Zhang Xiaotiao's smile deepened. "Li Juan is leaving, and tomorrow is the weekend. Double happiness."
"that is."
…
The atmosphere outside was quite relaxed, but inside the glass room, the situation was tense.
Li Juan sat down on the ground and screamed hysterically, saying that she didn't want to live anymore.
Behind her, Li Yunting was holding her aunt's hand and whispering something in Li Juan's ear.
Not far away, Shen Yuqing looked expressionless, but his eyes staring at the floor revealed that he had been distracted for a long time.
The aunt and niece got together, and I wonder what bad ideas they were thinking up.
But not long after, Li Juan changed her tone: "You can fire us if you want."
Hearing this, Shen Yuqing's eyes slowly moved from the floor to the faces of the aunt and nephew.
He did not speak in a hurry, but waited for Li Juan to speak.
"You have to take Tingting to attend the annual meeting of that big company."
“…”
Shen Yuqing raised his eyebrows, somewhat unable to believe that Li Yunting had only put forward such a condition.
He probably knew about that annual meeting and what the aunt and nephew were planning.
I guess she thinks the people attending that party are of high status, and she wants to find a rich husband there.
Although I don't want to attend this kind of party where people flatter each other and act casually, if going once can solve these two problems, it's not a bad idea.
But he was still a little surprised that Li Juan did not ask for an exorbitant amount. He had initially estimated that Li Juan would ask for at least 100,000.
Shen Yuqing actually looked at her with a high opinion of her.
But the next second.
"But you have to give me 200,000 yuan in severance pay as compensation."
Shen Yuqing raised an eyebrow, but was not surprised by her greed, after all, that was just the kind of person she was.
He remembered her kindness in bringing him into the industry, which was why he had not fired her over the years even though he knew she had made many mistakes.
At that time, he was just a small anchor, and it was Li Juan who accompanied him to look for brands again and again.
Unexpectedly, as he became more and more popular, Li Juan became more and more greedy.
Is it really because of the ugliness of human nature?
He was still thinking about human nature and said nothing, but Li Juan and Li Yunting opposite him took it as his disagreement.
The two looked at each other, each with a hint of panic in their expressions.
Li Juan was confused, but pretended to be strong on the surface: "If you don't give me severance pay, I will go and smear you."
When Shen Yuqing heard this, he just looked at her coldly and still said nothing.
Before he could open his mouth, Zhang Xiaotiao, who had come outside to deliver some brand materials, could no longer bear to listen.
He didn't even knock on the door, but walked in directly with an angry look on his face.
Zhang Xiaotiao placed the information on Brother Shen's desk, pointed his index finger at Li Juan and her niece, and stood up for Brother Shen.
"Li Juan, don't be so shameless. The last time we had a disagreement with that brand, it was because of you spreading rumors and causing trouble. Don't think that Brother Shen and we don't know about it."
Last time a partner came to her, Li Juan rushed to meet with them because the brand ignored her hints.
She deliberately spoke ill of the brand on their side, and then spoke ill of them on the brand's side.
It was an intern from the brand side who called to accuse them. After the two sides had a heated discussion, they realized that it was Li Juan who was fanning the flames.
In addition, Yang Chunchun said that Li Juan took kickbacks in the past two years, which means that this is not the first or second time she has done so.
He said that Li Juan was usually so lazy, so why was she so active every time they discussed cooperation? It seemed that she just wanted to get kickbacks.
Brother Chen had already turned a blind eye to her out of consideration for their old friendship, but she wanted to climb over their heads and shit on them.
"What are you talking about?"
Li Juan wanted to deny it, but Zhang Xiaotiao didn't buy it at all.
"We have evidence in our hands. If this gets out, your reputation in this circle will be completely ruined."
In fact, Zhang Xiaotiao said this to scare Li Juan. It had been so long since the incident happened, so where did he get the evidence?
But Li Juan's eyes obviously dodged, indicating that she was indeed scared.
Probably feeling guilty, and seeing that her threats didn't work, she started to play the victim again, saying how difficult her life was.
She said she was old and if she left the studio, no one would want her anymore.
She had said this dozens of times. Zhang Xiaotiao alone had heard it no less than five times. Every time, she would talk about how much she had contributed to this studio.
There was still no emotion on Shen Yuqing's face. He looked at Li Juan, his voice as flat as when he said he wanted to fire her.
"I will transfer 100,000 yuan into your personal account as your severance pay, but you and Li Yunting must both sign a resignation letter.
Seeing that Shen Yuqing agreed to give her 100,000 severance pay, she muttered again in a very low voice.
"He still has a conscience."
“…”
In fact, the kickbacks Li Juan has taken over the years have exceeded 100,000 yuan.
The reason why Shen Yuqing didn't argue with her and was still willing to give it was to cut off the entanglement with her.
Therefore, he didn't take Li Juan's words to heart.
Li Juan got what she wanted and wanted to go out happily, but Li Yunting held her back and nodded at her.
Li Juan just remembered and made another request to Shen Yuqing.
Shen Yuqing knew that she wanted to talk about the annual meeting and nodded before she opened her mouth.
"Okay. But I will only give her one invitation. I won't be responsible for anything else." As he said that, he handed the annual meeting invitation in the drawer to Li Yunting.
The aunt and niece then left with satisfaction. Before leaving, Li Juan glared at Zhang Xiaotiao arrogantly before leaving.
Knowing that the other party would no longer be his immediate superior, Zhang Xiaotiao glared back at him with great determination.
When the aunt and nephew left, Shen Yuqing glanced at Li Yunting with an unclear look in his eyes.
He remembered that he saw her getting into a man's sports car in the underground parking lot.
He thought at the time that she had found a rich husband and could finally live in peace for a while.
Unexpectedly, he still had such evil intentions that he wanted to find a higher branch to climb last year.
But it had nothing to do with him after all. Who at the annual meeting wasn't a shrewd person? How could they not see through her cunning tricks?
Thinking of something, Shen Yuqing opened the tablet again and logged into the game interface.
Xia Ruirui is not online yet, and the message record is still stuck at the conversation between the two yesterday.
——[Also, there are too many women around him who covet him, and he behaves in an ambiguous manner with his female colleagues.]
Shen Yuqing stood in front of the French window, looking at the huge building and the tiny crowd under the glass window, with a pleading look in his eyes.
He is one of the countless beings in this tiny human race, praying for the favor of his goddess.
"Now there are no women around me who covet me. Will you look back at me? Xia Ruirui."
