Chapter 452: Cheerful, pretty, small-chested

In a corner of the vast conference center.

With Lin Empress Mu Xue's suddenly changed attitude, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely subtle.

Yao Yao Lingling's few colleagues stared blankly at the scene before them, feeling as if they were in a dream.

Yao Yao Lingling, a colleague they often saw in the company, an ordinary college student who had only graduated for a little over a year, was being targeted by leadership because she had offended the daughter of a company shareholder.

This was originally a phenomenon that fit logic, but no one expected that first, a tall and voluptuous female director from Nebula International would emerge to stand up for her and regain her face.

Now, another President Lin from Meigou International had emerged, also wanting to stand up for her.

This plot was simply outrageous.

It was even more unbelievable than when they heard Xiao Mingxuan was the only son of the chairman.

Looking at Yao Yao Lingling, who was sandwiched between two noble-status women.

Liang Jiani's head buzzed as if a torpedo had been thrown into it.

She could be considered the person who had the most contact with Yao Yao Lingling in the company, after all, she used to be her assistant.

She pinched herself hard, and the clear pain reminded her that all of this was real.

Yao Yao Lingling, oh Yao Yao Lingling! If you had said earlier that you had such a big background, there wouldn't have been so many things!

Wen Wen Qiuyue looked at Lin Empress Mu Xue, who had a high-and-mighty appearance, and her teeth were about to be bitten to pieces.

Thinking of her subconscious retreat just now, her body trembled slightly.

Although she didn't know how this Lin Empress Mu Xue from Lanfeng International Hotel suddenly became some general assistant of Rongliu Capital, it was very obvious now that she had no time or opportunity to dwell on these things.

Noticing the eye contact between her daughter and Lin Empress Mu Xue, Wen Zhenhua's forehead jumped violently.

It really is what you fear that comes!

"President Lin." Wen Zhenhua quickly adjusted his mindset, a gentle smile hanging on his face, his tone carrying a bit of caution. "Do you and Wen Qiuyue know each other?"

At this very moment, the atmosphere had become tense to the extreme; if it wasn't eased in time, it would definitely affect the subsequent cooperation.

As the chairman of Jiaxin Group, he could not let his daughter's personal problems affect the company's interests.

Lin Empress Mu Xue heard this, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly. "Miss Wen and I have indeed met a few times, but the process was very unpleasant."

"You... you're talking nonsense!" Wen Wen Qiuyue gritted her teeth. "We clearly only met once! And you were the one who took the initiative to find trouble!"

Due to excessive anger, she almost blurted out her inner thoughts.

She was very sure that this bitch was targeting her!

Lin Empress Mu Xue said calmly, "Hehe, Miss Wen is still as arrogant, domineering, and unreasonable as ever; compared to the past, there has been no change."

Yao Yao Lingling raised her head to look at Lin Empress Mu Xue, crystal-clear light flashing in her eyes.

She felt that at this moment, her aura was powerful, and every move she made carried a kind of majesty that could not be ignored.

She was just a college student who had graduated for a year, and plus her cheerful personality.

For the workplace, for friends, she was full of enthusiasm.

Being bullied in the company for no reason, and her good sister Li Li Shumin being laid off because of her—how could she not have emotions in her heart?

Realizing Lin Empress Mu Xue's extremely poor attitude toward his daughter, Wen Zhenhua's voice was low and solemn. "Shut up!"

Wen Wen Qiuyue's body trembled. "Dad!"

Wen Zhenhua turned to the side and glared at her fiercely: "How did I teach you in the past? Now that you are also a person in charge at the company, how can you still be so frivolous!"

Toward this daughter, he was truly a bit disappointed.

In order to cultivate her, he used the name of Jiaxin Group to provide resources and money.

It was not easy to build the "Yueshang" brand for her in Hangcheng, but the operation was a mess, and she couldn't produce any results.

And she was often complained about to him by people in the group.

It was fine if she provoked or bullied employees of the group in the past; he, as a father, could help maintain things.

But now, knowing that the other party could influence Meigou International's supply chain, she was still so unaware of the situation, which really made him angry.

What he feared more was that if Wen Wen Qiuyue provoked a bigger figure in the future, it might bring disaster to the entire Jiaxin Group.

So he also wanted to take this opportunity to grind down his daughter's temperament.

Wen Wen Qiuyue's eyes were red. "Dad, how can you say that about me!"

Very obviously, she didn't get her father's intention.

In her view, she was currently "surrounded on all sides," everyone was watching her make a fool of herself, and her father was even helping Lin Empress Mu Xue reprimand her.

Her face was completely trampled underfoot.

Especially noticing Lin Empress Mu Xue's gaze, it made her directly enter a red-hot state.

Xiao Liguo, who was beside her, saw this scene and hurriedly pushed his son, seeing that Xiao Mingxuan had no reaction.

Only then did he take the initiative to step forward. "Wen Qiuyue, your dad is also doing this for your own good."

After all, she was his future daughter-in-law, and he and Wen Zhenhua were also old friends for many years; he certainly couldn't watch the father and daughter make a scene at the exhibition site.

Wen Wen Qiuyue took a deep breath, lowered her head, and violent fluctuations rose in her gaze.

She also knew that on an occasion like today, she absolutely could not really quarrel with the other party.

Looking at Wen Wen Qiuyue's posture at this very moment, feeling the awe-filled gazes around her, Lin Empress Mu Xue felt as if she were floating like an immortal.

This is the feeling!

Wen Zhenhua didn't bother with his daughter anymore, a gentle smile hanging on his face again, his tone carrying a bit of apology. "President Lin, I'm truly sorry. Wen Qiuyue is young and energetic. If she has offended you in any way before, I hope President Lin can forgive her."

"Chairman Wen is too polite." Lin Empress Mu Xue's gaze swept over Wen Wen Qiuyue, her tone calm. "Yao Lingling, are you here to participate in the exhibition today? I remember you are a clothing designer for Shanya; do you have any works on display?"

In this regard, her Little Xue's nose was particularly sensitive.

She had just discovered the subtle atmosphere between Yao Yao Lingling, Wen Wen Ruan, and Wen Wen Qiuyue.

Linking it to the dispute at the Yuhua Business Building before, she quickly had some guesses.

She was a decent person now, after all; it was impossible for her to act like a shrew and directly attack Wen Wen Qiuyue.

Yao Yao Lingling was a very good excuse.

This is my Empress Empress Mu Xue's beloved friend! In the future, she will probably become a teammate on a ball team!

She suffered a grievance, I must help get the field back!

Yao Yao Lingling took a deep breath and said, "Thank you for your concern, Sister Empress Mu Xue. Originally there was, but it was temporarily canceled, and I am also about to resign from Shanya."

"Oh?" Lin Empress Mu Xue's eyes lit up, her tone carrying seriousness. "What happened?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, Xiao Liguo's expression instantly changed. "Yao Lingling, regarding your problem, we can negotiate further. As a lead designer with achievements, the company indeed didn't care enough about you before. Qimeng is a new brand and has an independent business department. Regarding your situation, Mingxuan will be personally responsible for it later!"

As he spoke, Xiao Liguo reached out and tugged at his son's arm.

Xiao Mingxuan, however, remained silent.

"No need, Chairman Xiao." Yao Yao Lingling shook her head vigorously. "We already said it very clearly before; just as you said, there is no need to dwell on this."

"This..." A layer of sweat quickly soaked out on Xiao Liguo's forehead.

Until this moment, he truly regretted it, and it was extreme regret.

Shanya's business had always been only domestic; with the current involution of the market, sales and business lines had been shrinking.

If it weren't for the powerful supply chain and factory resources of Jiaxin Group, it might have been losing money by now.

This was also the reason why he valued Wen Wen Qiuyue so much.

And Shanya's best way out next was undoubtedly going overseas, cross-border. The government promoted this international fashion exhibition, aiming to promote the development of Yan Province's clothing industry's cross-border business through Meigou International's global resources and platform advantages, and promote the deep integration of local brands with the international market.

For Shanya, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Originally, if Yao Yao Lingling had continued to stay at Shanya and participated in the exhibition according to the normal process, with Lin Empress Mu Xue's goodwill toward her, winning an award would have been a sure thing.

Even relying on this layer of relationship, the entire Shanya could have entered Meigou International's supply chain.

But now, everything was too late.

Lin Empress Mu Xue looked at Wen Wen Qiuyue again, carrying a thick sense of aggression. "Miss Wen, I think Yao Lingling's matter should also have something to do with you, right?"

Wen Zhenhua said immediately, "President Lin, there might be some misunderstanding in the middle."

"Hehe." Lin Empress Mu Xue let go of Yao Yao Lingling's hand, stepped forward, came to Wen Wen Qiuyue, and looked down at her from above. "Last time at the Yuhua Business Building, Miss Wen really spouted nonsense, not only insulting Yao Lingling but also threatening me.

Now that you can't retaliate against me, you take it out on Yao Lingling, right?

As far as I know, Miss Wen is the person in charge of Yueshang Clothing and is also participating in this exhibition.

As a member of the organizer, I really doubt whether Miss Wen possesses enough professional quality and moral standards to participate in such an international activity."

!

Wen Wen Qiuyue's expression instantly turned pale, her fists clenched tightly, her nails almost embedding into her palms.

She had never felt so embarrassed in her life, and had never felt so aggrieved.

But she also knew that for her father and family, Jiaxin Group was heaven.

She had been arrogant and domineering in the past only because she had this qualification.

But Lin Empress Mu Xue, as one of the representatives of Meigou International, she had no qualification to act tough with the other party.

Looking at this scene before her, Wen Zhenhua's expression also turned ugly.

But he was, after all, a veteran of the business world and quickly adjusted his emotions.

He said sincerely, "President Lin, Wen Qiuyue is young and energetic. If she has offended you in any way before, I hope President Lin can give her a chance to correct it."

"Chairman Wen is right." Lin Empress Mu Xue nodded with a smile and looked at Wen Wen Qiuyue. "Miss Wen, shouldn't you apologize?"

Wen Wen Qiuyue lowered her head, her teeth almost bitten to pieces, unable to say a word.

Wen Wen Ruan watched this scene quietly, a faint smile on her face.

She was not as simple as Yao Yao Lingling.

Although Xiao Liguo and Wen Zhenhua spoke very politely before, they actually didn't take Yao Yao Lingling seriously at all.

Wen Zhenhua said he would help arrange work and specifically pointed out that most clothing companies in Yancheng would be fine.

Among them, besides showing goodwill, there was also an intention to beat her down.

In other words, if you still want to engage in the clothing industry in Yancheng, you should stop while you're ahead.

But very obviously, Yao Yao Lingling, who was in her early 20s, was still in the stage of a newborn calf not fearing a tiger.

She had no clear understanding of capital and connections.

If Yao Yao Lingling were really just an ordinary small employee, offending Jiaxin Group and Wen Wen Qiuyue, the result would have been terrifying.

Looking at the tense atmosphere at the scene.

Wen Wen Ruan raised her wrist to check the time and said casually, "There are only 30 minutes left until the opening ceremony; more and more guests and media will be entering next."

Wen Zhenhua looked at his daughter, his expression ugly. "Wen Qiuyue, apologize!"

Hearing this, Wen Wen Qiuyue's body shuddered violently; she raised her head, her eyes full of humiliation and unwillingness.

Staring at Lin Empress Mu Xue for a good while, she said with a trembling voice, "I'm sorry."

After saying this, Wen Wen Qiuyue turned around abruptly and ran toward the exit with her head down.

Looking at her panicked and flustered back.

Lin Empress Mu Xue let out a long breath, feeling that a regret in her life had been satisfied, her thoughts were clear, and her mood was incomparably smooth.

Once upon a time, Wen Wen Qiuyue pointed at her nose, mercilessly poking and slapping her face in public, saying she wore fake and shoddy products and insulted their brand.

Yet, for the sake of that precious 1,000-yuan part-time fee, she didn't dare to refute and could only apologize while being despised by everyone.

Now, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, letting Wen Wen Qiuyue also experience what she felt at that time.

And this was just the beginning; as her Empress Empress Mu Xue's status became higher and higher, she would completely become Wen Wen Qiuyue's psychological shadow.

The kind that would make her have nightmares just by thinking of her in the future! Hahaha!

Wen Zhenhua, who withdrew his gaze, said with a normal expression, "President Lin, President Wen, Wen Qiuyue has already apologized; let's end this matter here. The opening ceremony is about to start."

Even though there were many emotions in his heart, he still maintained politeness and restraint.

No matter what, he had to draw a period to this storm first.

"Okay, Chairman Wen." Lin Empress Mu Xue nodded gently, returning to her previous light and breezy state.

Wen Wen Ruan smiled slightly, holding Yao Yao Lingling's hand, and asked, "Yao Lingling, do you have any thoughts about work? You can tell me."

Yao Yao Lingling shook her head blankly. "Today's matter was too sudden; I need to slow down first."

Xiao Mingxuan pursed his lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't speak.

Things had already reached this point; saying these things again would be self-inflicted humiliation.

He also knew that Yao Yao Lingling could no longer return to Shanya or Qimeng.

For some reason, there was an indescribable loss and helplessness in his heart.

Wen Wen Ruan touched Yao Yao Lingling's hair and said with concern, "Then think about it first, plan your future well. Don't worry about this matter; I'll cover for you."

Yao Yao Lingling nodded gratefully, her eye sockets slightly red. "Thank you, Sister Wen Wen Ruan, really thank you very much."

She herself was secondary; the main thing was Li Li Shumin.

Now that the general environment was so bad and companies were laying off people, many of their classmates were just like Zhang Zhang Jiahong before, still in a state of unemployment and preparing for exams.

Li Li Shumin was just an ordinary assistant and had no works to show off; finding a job would be particularly difficult.

Yao Yao Lingling didn't want to implicate her because of her own affairs.

"No need to thank me. Are you going to participate in the opening ceremony with us?"

Yao Yao Lingling shook her head. "No, I don't have any works on display now, and there are still many things to deal with; I have to go to the booth first."

She could imagine how panicked Li Li Shumin was now and had to go comfort her.

Just at this moment, Lin Empress Mu Xue suddenly turned around, a meaningful smile on her face. "Yao Lingling, I remember you have a roommate working at Huashang Clothing, right? Do you want to consider working with her?"

"This..." Yao Yao Lingling's heart jumped, a glimmer of expectation flashing in her eyes.

She knew that Lin Empress Mu Xue was also a director's assistant at Huashang Clothing.

If she could work in the same company as Zhang Jiahong and Damn Minmin, struggle together, and support each other, that would absolutely be the best outcome.

Looking at the expression on her face, Lin Empress Mu Xue smiled. "No need to rush to make a decision; finish the resignation from Shanya first, and take other things slowly. Let's keep in touch on WeChat; if you need anything, find me anytime."

The current her had achieved the Saint Body, completely completed the transformation, and already had the idea of taking in a little sister.

This Yao Lingling was quite good.

Like her, she had a deep hatred for Wen Wen Qiuyue.

And she had many advantages: Tang Song's junior, cheerful, pretty, small-chested.
