At this moment, a strong sense of impatience welled up in Liu Meiling's heart.
She wanted nothing more than to slap this fat, bloated guy away. He didn't focus on the right things; all he did was try to pull strings.
Do you even deserve it?
She was so disgusted she almost threw up.
But she swallowed the words back down.
It's strange, she wasn't like this before, so quick to hate evil.
She had already witnessed the cutthroat competition and back-and-forth in the business world. Even she herself, in the beginning, hadn't tried to win people over with gifts.
But ever since she met Yi Tianran again, she has found that her temper has worsened.
I am no longer as calm and collected as before, and I might even get angry from the bottom of my heart about something.
Her acting skills are clearly very good.
Thinking of this, a forced smile appeared on her face. "I wouldn't call it a promotion, but we can still make progress together."
This person still has value to us, so we can't afford to break ties with him.
The male director's eyes lit up, and he smiled so much that his eyes narrowed into slits. He eagerly extended his hand to her, saying, "Then it will be a pleasure to cooperate."
Looking at that fat pig's hand, Liu Meiling suppressed her disgust and grabbed it.
After leaving the meeting room, she hurried to the restroom.
He frantically wiped his hand with a wet wipe, as if it were covered in bacteria.
After rubbing for a long time until her palms were red, she finally stopped and, in a fit of anger, threw the toilet bowl full of grievances, which were then flushed away by the water.
She suppressed her nausea and was about to push open the cubicle door to leave when she heard footsteps and voices coming from outside—
"Tsk, have you heard? Liu Meiling has been promoted to supervisor."
"Hehe, I'm really not surprised at all. Manager Chen Fang was fired not long ago for offending her, and now she's taken over. What a cunning woman!"
"You always act so aloof, but now your true colors are showing!"
"It's so great to have a strong backer! You don't need to work hard; you can become a winner in life just by lying down!"
"Come on, you guys didn't see how hypocritical she is. I heard that in the meeting just now, that fat pig director was fawning over her, and she accepted it all without the slightest resistance!"
"Getting in through the back door is shameless enough, but to go and collude with trash is truly despicable."
Liu Meiling's eyes were dark, and a mocking smile curled at the corner of her mouth.
Just because she got into the Fu family through connections, these people can completely deny her efforts.
She distances herself from others, and they call her aloof; she remains friendly and doesn't confront the director, and they say she's complicit.
No matter what she does, they can interpret it in a different way.
If a person harbors prejudice against another, they will constantly distort and slander him.
To put it bluntly, they're just jealous of me. If I were the one with the backing, I'd be so grateful I'd practically grovel before them.
Liu Meiling was thoroughly annoyed and too lazy to argue with these arrogant and incompetent people.
If it were the old her, she would have hidden in a corner, patiently waiting for these people to finish talking.
But right now, she doesn't have that patience.
Outside, a group of people were chatting animatedly at the washbasin when they suddenly heard a creak behind them.
Startled, they turned around and saw the door to the cubicle open, and a tall, expressionless figure walked out.
Liu Meiling glanced at them coldly.
One of the women, who had been hurling insults at her, was so frightened that her pupils contracted sharply, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground on her bottom, her internal organs shaken.
Liu Meiling seemed to scoff coldly, then gracefully walked away in her high heels.
There wasn't a single superfluous word from beginning to end.
But it was precisely this nonchalant attitude that made the group of people uneasy.
"She...she heard everything?"
"Why didn't they get angry, argue back, or lecture us?"
"The way she looked at us just now, was she silently memorizing our faces, waiting to take revenge later?"
The group was on the verge of tears, regretting their sharp tongues and wishing they could go back five minutes and slap themselves.
Knowing full well that they have powerful connections, what are you even talking about?
But they only dare to hide in places like this to say a few words and vent their frustrations!
Unexpectedly, the person involved caught them red-handed.
The group was terrified and remained uneasy for several days, fearing that Liu Meiling was plotting something big and might launch a surprise attack or have them fired.
Being able to work for a group like Fu's, which offers high salaries, great benefits, and a 9-to-5 work schedule with no overtime required, is an immense honor!
If they are dismissed without any reason, do they have any other options?
Thinking about this, the group couldn't sleep all night, especially the one who had cursed the most and was also the most timid.
She was so frightened that she fell seriously ill and had to take all the annual leave she had planned to use for travel. When she returned to the company, she had lost a lot of weight.
However, their worries were unnecessary, because Liu Meiling never intended to cause them any trouble.
It's just a few words, does it really mean they'll fire you?
She wasn't the company president; she was just relying on her friendship with Yi Tianran. She still had some self-awareness and wouldn't waste her time on unrelated people.
She has more important things to do.
In the following period, Liu Meiling took advantage of her position to make contact with many high-ranking officials.
Finally, within half a month, she found something to hold against the Fu family's project.
Having obtained what she wanted, she secretly arrived at Yi Qilin's secret base late that night and handed over everything she possessed to him.
Upon seeing these secrets, Yi Qilin's hands trembled, his eyes filled with joy, and he blurted out, "If Chu Lin saw these things, he would be ecstatic. From now on, he will definitely entrust me with important responsibilities."
Liu Meiling looked slightly surprised and subconsciously asked, "Chu Lin, is that President Chu?"
Yi Qilin, without much guard, said, "Yes, only by cooperating with such an ambitious and shrewd person like him can I have a chance to rise to the top."
He had originally planned to work with Daniel, hoping for the support of the Mafia family.
It turned out that the real power behind the Mafia family was Daniel's brother, Arthur.
Every final decision must be made with the other party's approval.
Arthur was also a cunning and wary man, and he dared not openly break ties with the Fu family.
He ultimately had no choice but to end his cooperation with the Mafia family.
The only one we can count on now is Chu Lin.
"Is this Chu Lin really that capable?" Liu Meiling asked with suspicion. "Does he really need us to step in and help him? Does he really have the ability to deal with the Fu family?"
