The people below immediately fell silent.
Upon seeing this, Tang Yu bit her lip and smiled at Fu Lengyu in an attempt to please him. "Yu-"
Fu Lengyu's gaze suddenly shot towards her.
She quickly changed her words. "Mr. President, I think everyone's opinions are valid."
Fu Lengyu sneered. "Why don't we switch positions? You can take my place."
Tang Yu immediately fell silent.
Under Fu Lengyu's gaze, An Ran sat in the far corner of the conference room.
"The car show incident last time damaged the company's reputation. I need to quickly restore our image."
"I have an idea. The problem with the car show wasn't the cars themselves, but the models' clothing. An Group has just acquired the company, and we should organize a party. Moreover, An Group specializes in fashion design, so we can use this opportunity to showcase our company's strength."
"I agree with this idea. By leveraging the mainstream media's influence, we may even be able to control the next trend."
...The employees discussed fervently, but An Ran sat silently on the side, lost in thought.
An Group, An Group... Dad, can you see this? Your life's work has been taken by someone else. Dad, what should I do...
"An Ran, the president is calling you."
The person next to her nudged her arm with their elbow, looking on with amusement.
An Ran snapped out of her thoughts. "Huh?"
Their gazes collided, and Fu Lengyu's face darkened to the point where a knife could drop. "
An Ran, do you not want to work here anymore? If you don't, then get out right now!" The employees below immediately burst into laughter.
An Ran forced a smile and said, "I'm sorry."
"Say it again!" Fu Lengyu demanded.
"An Ran, the CEO said that for this clothing theme, we will each design our own and whoever designs the best one will be used. At the same time, we will take over the business of the An family. Are you up for it?"
Tang Yu spoke, her tone light and casual, as if victory was already within her grasp.
An Ran looked at Fu Lengyu in surprise, clearly not believing that he would give her such a good opportunity. But then she thought about how many people were watching, and Fu Lengyu couldn't go back on his word even if he wanted to.She immediately agreed. "Really? That's great!"
She was almost so happy that she could cry. She had studied fashion design in college, and while she couldn't say that she was naturally gifted, she had her own unique ideas. Even her teachers had said that she would definitely make achievements in this field!
Moreover, this was related to the family business. She definitely wouldn't lose to Tang Yu!
The meeting ended, and Fu Lengyu was the first to leave the conference room. Tang Yu walked up to An Ran in her high heels and looked down at her. "Compared to me in design, you might as well just admit defeat."
"Tang Yu, you better not be too arrogant. You might not know this, but I recorded everything of you and that man hugging and cuddling yesterday!"
"Do you dare?" Tang Yu widened her eyes.
"Why wouldn't I dare?" An Ran smirked. "I even dare to show it to everyone. Are you surprised?"
Satisfied with Tang Yu's black and purple face, An Ran wanted to burst out laughing.
However, what she said was only half true. She did record it, but the false part was that her phone was broken and she didn't know if it could be fixed.
An Ran walked out of the conference room and just sat down at her seat when her phone rang. It was actually Lu YeBai.
"Hello?"
"It's me. How's your hand today?"
"Don't worry, it's much better now."
An Ran looked at her wrist, which was swollen like a pig, and smiled bitterly. "By the way, the injury on your face."
"It's fine. I'm downstairs in the company. Do you want to come down? I have something for you."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After An Ran went downstairs, she saw Lu Ye Bai standing next to the car, wearing a mask.
"Why didn't you come up?"
"No, this is for you." He handed her a tube of ointment.
Glancing at An Ran's swollen wrist, he said, "I knew you wouldn't apply the ointment. Apply it three times a day, thickly, and it'll be better in three days."
"Thank you." An Ran took the ointment and hesitated for a moment before asking, "My phone--"
"Oh, I've already sent your phone for repair. If it's fixed, I'll bring it to you." He opened the car door and took out a new phone. "This is the one I bought for you. Use it for now."
"It's okay, I'll buy it myself," An Ran declined.Lu Ye Bai handed his phone forward again. "If you don't take it, I'll just throw it away."
Helplessly, An Ran took the phone from him.
"And don't forget to try your best to fix my phone," Lu Ye Bai added.
...
The two met downstairs and were completely caught off guard when they saw Fu Leng Yu standing on the 25th floor looking down at them.
Even from such a height, he could see the intimate distance between the two.This woman really had no sense of propriety! She dared to flirt like this even with a dyed reputation! Absolutely disgusting!
As soon as An Ran arrived upstairs, she was called into the CEO's office.
Looking at Fu Leng Yu working, she asked in confusion, "Did you need me for something?"
Fu Leng Yu didn't say anything, not even lifting his head, and continued working.
An Ran stood at the door, and since Fu Leng Yu didn't tell her to leave, she didn't dare to go.
Many people came in and out of the office, and An Ran stood at the door like a guard, but Fu Leng Yu ignored her and didn't say a word to her.
After waiting for two hours, An Ran couldn't take it anymore. "CEO, why did you call me here? If there's nothing else--"
"What do you mean, nothing else?" Fu Leng Yu picked up a stack of documents in front of him. "This document needs to be copied by hand, 20 copies, for the meeting this afternoon."
Copied by hand?
An Ran thought she had misheard. "I'll go make copies."
"Are you deaf?" Fu Leng Yu sneered. "I said, by hand!"An Ran took the documents and looked at the dense writing on them, feeling a chill in her heart. "Are you crazy? With so many words, when will I finish copying them?"
If her hand was normal, she could still try to write, but now her wrist hurt with any movement, how could she possibly write?
"I don't need any excuses, just finish it and leave," Fu Lengyu issued a cold ultimatum.
An Ran gritted her teeth in anger, but she knew she couldn't throw the document in his face, knowing her mother was in his hands.
"Wait," An Ran was stopped as she turned around.
She stopped immediately, did Fu Lengyu change his mind?
"If you can't finish it before 2 pm this afternoon, your entire bonus for this month will be deducted."
