Xu Xinchen and Lin Bingchun were speaking in very low voices, and Li Xueyan couldn't hear what they were saying.
However, after hearing the news, Lin Bingchun kept looking at Li Xueyan with strange eyes. Even if Li Xueyan was slow to notice, she could sense that something was wrong.
She coldly threw what she was holding onto the table and called out to Xu Xinchen, "Lu Minshi, are you saying something bad about me?"
Xu Xinchen was a little confused when Li Xueyan suddenly called her name. She was still immersed in the fact that Li Xueyan had just dug a hole for her and hadn't come to her senses yet.
Therefore, she did not respond to Li Xueyan's words. Little did she know that this action would make Li Xueyan think that she was provoking her.
"Lu Minshi!" Li Xueyan slammed her hand on the table, stood up abruptly, and angrily shouted, "Are you deaf? Can't you hear me?!"
This time, even if Xu Xinchen was distracted, she was brought back to her senses by her shout. Seeing her furious expression, Xu Xinchen frowned and looked displeased.
Her gaze swept over the others in the office, and sure enough, she saw that their eyes, including hers, were filled with dissatisfaction. Clearly, everyone was beginning to understand that Li Xueyan had come specifically for her.
Faced with that look, Xu Xinchen couldn't find the words to defend herself, after all...
Li Xueyan did indeed come for her.
Li Xueyan's presence did indeed affect the work of others, so she had no choice but to speak to Li Xueyan.
"Ms. Li, could you please be mindful of the setting before you speak? This is an office, not a place for us to argue. Even if you have many grievances against me, please restrain yourself and let's resolve this privately."
Li Xueyan was angry, but she was still somewhat clear-headed. She imitated Xu Xinchen's earlier actions, scanning the office once more.
Seeing the disgusted looks she received from everyone in the office, she felt a lump in her throat and couldn't help but move her lips, looking as if she was about to roar again.
Xu Xinchen frowned deeply and placed her hand on the edge of Li Xueyan's table: "Ms. Li! Please think carefully. This is a company that has nothing to do with your family. It's not your family's business. Before you lose your temper here, think carefully about whether you will be kicked out!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xueyan finally came to her senses. She glanced at the others in the office and reluctantly sat down.
Lu Minshi is right. This is someone else's company. There's no need for her to lose her temper here. Besides causing dissatisfaction among others, she won't accomplish anything else. It's better to calm down and think carefully about how to deal with Lu Minshi.
After regaining her composure, Li Xueyan was finally willing to sit down and work quietly. As a result, the attention focused on the two of them lessened, and Xu Xinchen, sensing this change, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Xueyan had already calmed down, and Xu Xinchen and Lin Bingchun naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble anymore. The group stayed in the sales department peacefully until the end of the workday.
As soon as it was time to leave work, Li Xueyan quickly packed her things, gave Xu Xinchen a cold snort, and then strode out.
Seeing that Li Xueyan had left, Lin Bingchun immediately walked over to Xu Xinchen, pulled up a chair next to her, and sat down by herself: "I didn't expect it to be her who came. I'm really disappointed."
"What's there to be disappointed about? Her coming here won't affect anything for us." Xu Xinchen said, glancing at Lin Bingchun as she packed her things.
"Speaking of which, how come you still have the leisure to sit here? Shouldn't you be hurrying home to talk to your mother about your blind date?"
Reminded by Xu Xinchen, Lin Bingchun immediately wailed, "Lu Minshi, I hate you so much! Why do you have to remind me of these cruel things?"
As she spoke, she slowly stood up, slowly pulled out her chair, and took small steps toward the door, looking extremely reluctant to leave the office.
“I really don’t want to go home and tell my mom. If she finds out, and I still want to meet him, she’ll definitely misunderstand and think there’s a possibility that things are going on between us. But if I don’t meet him, I’m afraid my mom and the others will ask me about the progress in a couple of days.”
Xu Xinchen sighed and stuffed a piece of paper into her bag: "Then you should be more decisive and stop hesitating. It's something you'll have to face sooner or later, and hesitating won't help."
"Okay, okay." Lin Bingchun said helplessly, "I'll go back now, okay?"
Lin Bingchun reluctantly quickened her pace and soon disappeared from Xu Xinchen's sight.
Xu Xinchen sighed softly, quickly packed her things, slung her bag over her shoulder, and slowly walked downstairs in her high heels.
Chen Ningsheng waited for her in the same spot as usual. Xu Xinchen's face was dark as she walked towards him step by step.
Even from a distance, Chen Ningsheng could see Xu Xinchen's unhappy face. His brows furrowed slightly, and he quickened his pace to walk towards Xu Xinchen, reaching out to take the bag from her shoulder.
"What's wrong with my baby? Why does he look so unhappy?"
Xu Xinchen frowned, looking at him with displeasure: "It's all your fault. Why are you so outstanding? Now there are flies buzzing around you that I can't get rid of, and they've even come to bother me."
