While Ni Sitian was getting milk, she overheard several female employees talking about seeing Lin Yi'an naked in the break room the night before.
"That woman is so shameless. She actually took off all her clothes while resting. I wonder who she's waiting for."
"Huh? No way, Secretary Lin usually seems quite serious."
"She usually just pretends, but last night she couldn't keep it up anymore. She dressed so provocatively, which shows she's really slutty."
"That's true. That dress last night was really too sexy. It was like she had 'slut' written all over her face."
"Who do you think she's waiting for in that lounge?" one of them asked curiously.
The others were also curious. Given Lin Yi'an's social standing, only someone at the higher levels would strip naked and wait to seduce her.
"Who cares who she tried to seduce? Obviously, she didn't succeed. Otherwise, why would Lin Yi'an be surrounded by a group of male waiters with her naked? That person must have given the room key to someone else."
"That's true, but that person is really ruthless. Not only did he not want such a beautiful woman to throw herself into his arms, but he also made her be watched by so many people."
"Whose fault is this? She doesn't like wearing clothes and wants to be seen, so let's just let her be seen to her heart's content."
"Yes, yes, I heard that she was wearing a thong last night. The level of shamelessness is so extreme that even prostitutes in the red-light district wouldn't be an exaggeration."
"I heard that the reason she was able to be transferred from the HR department to the president's office was because she slept with the former HR director."
"Really? Tsk tsk, how shameless."
"I also heard..."
As their conversation became increasingly absurd, Ni Sitian picked up two glasses of milk and turned to leave.
"Madam." "Madam."
When the female employees who were gossiping saw that it was Ni Sitian, they were afraid of being scolded for gossiping, so they all stood up straight and greeted her respectfully.
"You guys continue." Ni Sitian felt awkward, like she was eavesdropping on someone's gossip, so she smiled and quickly walked away.
After watching Ni Sitian walk away, the female employee started gossiping about Lin Yi'an again.
Ni Sitian walked to the dining table, put down the milk, and shook her head with a light laugh, recalling what she had just heard.
"What's wrong?" Xu Tingchuan had just returned with pan-fried buns and eggs, and placed the plate in front of Ni Sitian.
"I've come to understand two phrases today: 'When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down,' and 'Gossip can be a fearsome thing,'" Ni Sitian said with some emotion.
Upon hearing her words, Xu Tingchuan understood. He had also overheard people discussing Lin Yi'an when he went to get his things.
"Was I a little too much last night?" Ni Sitian was afraid that Xu Tingchuan would think her trick was vicious, so she couldn't help but feel uneasy.
Xu Tingchuan picked up a pan-fried dumpling and brought it to her lips, saying, "You're being too kind by not throwing her into the sea."
Ni Sitian opened her mouth and took a bite of the pan-fried bun, savoring its aroma and chewing with satisfaction.
Xu Tingchuan peeled the boiled eggs off her plate. He didn't think she was being unreasonable at all. The angrier she got, the more she cared about him. He was overjoyed.
"I was angry yesterday, and thinking about it now, it seems like what I did was a bit inappropriate. It would have been bad if something else had happened. I should have left it to the waitresses to watch." Ni Sitian wasn't being a saint; she was just worried that something else might happen at Xu Tingchuan's annual party, which would have a negative impact on him, since there were many other business partners from other companies attending.
Upon hearing Ni Sitian's words, Xu Tingchuan recalled the incident involving Xiang Zhilan and sighed softly in his heart.
