As Qin Xiangnan spoke one word after another, everyone looked at Lan Xi.
She had originally put down her chopsticks, but then picked them up again and continued eating with relish. When she didn't hear any sound for a long time, she looked up and found that everyone was looking at her.
"There's nothing to explain. Your guesses are correct!"
Unexpectedly, Lan Xi admitted it directly.
Suddenly everyone didn’t know what to say!
"First of all, I didn't force you. You agreed to this voluntarily and after careful consideration. Secondly, I've never concealed my thoughts! Finally..."
Lan Xi put down her chopsticks and stood up: "If you want to leave, I won't stop you!"
She turned around and walked towards the sofa. Her nose felt a little itchy and she wanted to smoke!
Qin Xiangnan didn't expect Lan Xi to admit it like this. She looked at Lan Xi's back:
"Don't you have anything to explain?"
"Have I ever done anything to let you down? I gave you a job when you needed it most. The salary was not low, even higher than my peers. What do you want me to explain?"
Lan Xi spoke lightly, holding a cigarette.
The air became quiet. Lan Xi, holding the ashtray, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and sat down. Winter was about to end, and spots of green could already be seen.
She smoked quietly, ignoring the group of people in the restaurant. The wound on her shoulder had no feeling anymore, except for the occasional stinging pain when she moved.
Zhu Lingling looked at Lan Xi's soup, which she hadn't even taken a single sip of, and gave Qin Xiangnan a reproachful look:
"I didn't give you any less benefits, I even gave you more. What are you doing?"
Qin Xiangnan actually calmed down at this time, and felt a little regretful in his heart. Lan Xi was just such a person who loved to watch the fun, so why should he bother with her!
Bai Yun lowered her head and ate in silence, Lan Xi's words still echoing in her mind.
Indeed, if it weren’t for Lan Xi, my son wouldn’t have the opportunity he has now.
Lan Xi finished smoking a cigarette and stood up: "Get ready, it's time to close the door and beat the dog!"
This was said to Zhu Lingling, referring to something that was trending on the Internet.
"I understand. Then what about tomorrow's announcement..." Zhu Lingling agreed, remembering Lan Qi's handling announcement.
The ashtray was placed on the coffee table. Lan Xi glanced at Zhu Lingling:
"Just do whatever you need to do. If they have any problems, just let them come to me!"
"yes!"
After dinner, everyone left early without staying for long. Cheng Chiyan took a shower and walked into the bedroom. He saw Lan Xi still reading the documents:
"We're going to announce our relationship tomorrow?"
"Well! What time did Sun Shishi invite you to dinner?"
"7pm!"
"Well! Then 8:30!"
Lan Xi’s words made Cheng Chiyan feel strange. What does this have to do with Sun Shishi?
Just as he was about to ask, Lan Xi put down the tablet, covered herself with the quilt, lay down and closed her eyes.
Cheng Chiyan closed his mouth angrily and lay beside Lan Xi.
Early in the morning, on the wall of the Lan Group, documents stating that Lan Qi had been demoted to a member of Team One were posted on the bulletin board and at the exit of each elevator.
On Monday, everyone enjoyed the freshest melon!
"What's going on?"
"have no idea!"
"I know, I know. Wasn't President Lan in charge of a project group before? Last week, something went wrong with the project, and he got criticized by his superiors!"
"Just because of this? It shouldn't be! This is not a big deal. Besides, don't we still have Chairman Lan?"
"Look at whose seal is on this document. It's obviously the work of the new CEO!"
Suddenly, a man squeezed into the crowd. It was Lan Qi's lackey, Team Leader Pan. He stood in front of the documents and shouted:
"What are you looking at? It's already so late and you're not at work yet! Do you want your salary docked?"
Everyone rolled their eyes, walked away slowly, and kept talking in groups of three or four.
"Lan Xi, please take back the public notice immediately. How come I didn't know about this?"
Lan Tingan's call reached Lan Xi 5 minutes later.
Lan Xi sat on the soft chair, turning slowly in circles:
"What? Chairman Lan, don't you know? But that's right. I don't need to ask you for permission just to dismiss the general manager!"
"I don't care, I don't agree, you withdraw the document!" Lan Ting'an said sternly.
Lan Xi smiled faintly:
"Chairman Lan, don't throw a tantrum every time something happens. Didn't Lan Qi send you a document last week? Didn't you read it?"
Lan Ting'an was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "How do you know he sent me the documents?"
"Isn't it common knowledge that Lan Qi hasn't been weaned?"
Lan Xi took a pen from the table and turned it between her fingertips. Lan Ting'an's jumping made her happy.
Lan Ting'an didn't say anything. He hung up the phone and started searching on the table. Finally, he found it among a pile of documents.
Less than half a minute after opening it, he slammed the folder shut, unable to hide his shocked and panicked look.
How did Lan Xi know?
How would she know?
Staring at the watch in front of her, Lan Xi counted the seconds, tapping the table lightly with her fingertips.
Three minutes later, her cell phone rang again. Lan Xi looked at Lan Tingan's note jumping on the screen, and the corners of her mouth slowly rose.
A sense of excitement emerged from my heart as I watched my prey have nowhere to escape.
It wasn't until Lan Ting'an's third call rang again that Lan Xi slowly picked up the phone:
"What's wrong, Chairman Lan?"
There was only heavy breathing from the other side, but no sound.
"Why is there no sound? Weird!" Lan Xi pretended to be surprised and muttered to herself, and was about to hang up the phone.
"Lan Xi! Where did you get this thing?" Lan Ting'an's voice trembled.
