Chapter 11
ow what she's sayingShe is now his legal wife.Shen Yian realized Song Lin's scrutinizing gaze and couldn't help but widen his eyes, awkwardly saying, "I meant that you would be happy, not that I would...Although Shen Yian was a little annoyed, he still patiently shook his head at Xu Manman.
Xu Manman looked like she was facing a formidable enemy: "Could it be that Manager Li really hooked up with Wang Ruqi"
Shen Yian quickly covered her mouth and looked around. Luckily, everyone else had gone to eat and no one noticed them.
"Don't spread rumors, it's the worst thing you can do in an office."
Xu Manman lowered her voice, full of resentment: "Why! As soon as she arrived, we became background characters. She clearly has everything, why does she still have to compete with us She just uses money to win men over! It's just about showing off!"
Shen Yian turned his head to look at Xu Manman, feeling that she was a bit extreme.
"Manman! Don't talk about things without evidence! Besides, life is inherently unequal. It's her advantage that she has money and can win people over. We don't need to compare ourselves to that."
"I just hate the way she acts all smug and superior. What's so great about her If it weren't for her rich uncle, she wouldn't be anything!" Xu Manman complained.
Shen Yian watched Xu Manman purse her lips. Although Xu Manman criticized Wang Ruqi, envy was still uncontainable in her eyes.
Likewise, whether it was designer brands or men, Wang Ruqi could get them with a flick of her finger. The entire building was filled with people envious of her.
Even for work, she could basically strike a deal just by having a meal and flirting with the other party, while they needed to repeatedly go back and forth before signing a contract.
But Shen Yian always felt that work was a process of accumulating ability. Even if Wang Ruqi could act cute and coquettish now, what about later
She comforted Xu Manman and said, "Don't think about other things, work still has to be down-to-earth."
Xu Manman reluctantly nodded, staring at Wang Ruoqi's nameplate high heels under her seat, wondering what she was thinking.
Shen Yian didn't mind. He pulled her up: "Come on, let's go eat."
Xu Manman came back to her senses and exclaimed, "Didn't you bring your own lunch"
Shen Yian said helplessly: "I've been a bit busy these two days and probably won't be able to bring food."
Xú Mànmàn thought her mother was busy with her illness, so she didn't ask much and followed Shěn Yī'ān into the elevator.
In fact, Shen Yian was thinking of finding a suitable time to chat with Song Lin about their future life.
I was pretty much scared by an empty fridge this morning.
After all, they can't get a divorce in the short term. If they want to live harmoniously, they still need to understand each other.
Stepping out of the elevator, Shen Yian and Xu Manman just saw Wang Ruoqi get into a Ferrari. People around them had different looks in their eyes: jealousy, envy, disdain...
This month is the 10th different luxury car, I'm really envious of Wang Ruoqi.
"You may not know, she liked a famous brand this morning, and by noon, a courier arrived. She said they were all from admirers, and I don't know when I'll have that kind of treatment."
"Envy Then go for it, remember to show half your chest."
It is said that Xu Manman clenched her fists and glared at Shen Yian angrily.
"Sister Yi An, look at her! She's already gotten into someone else's car. Can you still eat" "What if she really makes a deal She'll be the deputy general manager!"
"I won't. Would I starve myself to death for her Besides, I think a woman who rejected the boss of the top five advertising companies in Haicheng couldn't be so shallow." Shen Yian said firmly.
"That can't be an option, can it" Xu Manman said through gritted teeth.
"Don't worry, I have a count. Besides, even if I catch up now, it would only bother them and be ineffective."
Shen Yian explained while pulling Xu Manman towards the exit, she was starving.
She ate a sandwich early in the morning.
Xu Manman wore an expression of exasperation as she followed Shen Yian to eat.
After the two finished lunch, they returned to the office. When everyone was back, they drew the curtains and prepared for a midday nap.
Shen Yian had just lain down when he heard the sound of high heels clicking outside the door, accompanied by Wang Ruoqi's sweet voice.
"Here we are, thank you for the ride. Talk to you later."
At the sound, everyone's drowsiness vanished as they all stretched their necks to look toward the door.
Wang Ruoqi walked in carrying a large LV paper bag, with a smug look on her face.
She made such a loud noise, but she feigned apology and said: "Sorry, did I disturb you guys How about afternoon tea on me today"
Everybody is looking at the LV bags, no one cares about afternoon tea anymore.
"Ruqi, what is this" someone asked.
The gift Mr. Li gave me, I don't want it, but he insisted on giving it to me. After all, he is our client, and it would be embarrassing for me to refuse. But I have so many packages already.
Wang Ruqi said she didn't want it, but her hands moved quickly as she opened the box. In the end, everyone envied her as she pulled out a package.
"Wow, it's an LV OnTheGo! This one costs 24,000 yuan! Did Mr. Li just give this to you as a gift" A discerning colleague exclaimed loudly.
It's not expensive either.
Wang Ruoqi casually slung her handbag across her arm and then turned in a circle.
Shen Yian didn't know how she had turned, but she somehow ended up right in front of him.
"Yi'an, does it look good"
"That's nice." Shen Yi'an smiled and casually reminded her, "Ruqi, as a potential cooperating party, the company regulations prohibit accepting gifts, and also Manager Li is married."
Several people in the office who disliked Wang Ruqi chuckled, especially the married colleagues who rolled their eyes directly.
Imagine your husband taking a woman out to dinner and giving her a $10,000 bag. Who could stand that
Wang Ruqi gritted her teeth: "Yian, you misunderstood. I said before that Li Manager and I hit it off immediately. This is a personal gift he gave me as a friend."
"Oh, a private gift," Shen Yian repeated.
Everyone's eyes grew even more meaningful.
Yesterday I didn't know him, today he became a good friend who sent me thousands of gifts. If nothing happened, who would believe it
But Wang Ruqi's little minions immediately jumped out to defend her.
Some people, when they can't get something, like to say grapes are sour. People like Ruqi, what haven't they seen When someone sends a gift, it's definitely to build relationships. This is called social etiquette. Some people don't even have this kind of network yet.
"That's right, these days it's all about resource sharing. Without connections or resources, you can only bury your head and write proposals. It's not like Ruqi, who effortlessly helped the company secure a partnership."
Wang Ruoqi stopped and smiled, "It's not that exaggerated. It wasn't easy for An to work so hard either. Don't say those things about her anymore. We all want what's best for the company. It's just unfortunate that she put in all this effort for nothing. In the future, I will definitely treat everyone well."
At first glance, it seemed fine, but upon closer listening, she had already placed herself in the position of her superior.
After finishing, she couldn't help but glance at Shen Yian with a smug look.
Shen Yian remained unmoved and countered, "Then... when did Li Manager sign the contract with you"
"Huh" Wang Ruqi's smile faltered.
"Aren't you afraid I wasted my effort You must have all colluded, right" Shen Yian pursued.
"That... Manager Li said to report back to the company after this, it's such an important collaboration after all." Wang Ruoqi paused.
"Oh, so you haven't signed a contract with them yet"
“...”Wang Ruqi was speechless.
At this moment, Wang Ruqi's phone rang. She picked up her phone as if a great weight had been lifted from her shoulders and glanced at it, immediately breaking into a smile.
Immediately, she waved her phone at Shen Yian.
"Yi An, it seems like you're out of the running this time. My uncle said that Manager Li really values me and even wants to introduce me to Wei Yi's boss directly."
Before Shen Yian could speak, his colleagues surrounded him, chattering away.
"Wei Yi, the boss He's the hottest new rich guy in Haicheng right now, isn't he"
"What's his background He's so mysterious, I hear many big shots are lining up to meet him."
"Ruoxi, you're going to be famous again. Not only will you get a promotion and raise, but you'll also get to know such an amazing person without having to queue."
After a round of flattery, Wang Ruqi looked at Shen Yian with even more disdain in her eyes.
Shen Yanan sank in her heart. Wang Ruoqi didn't even come up with a plan and just finished dealing with all the people from Weiyitechoing on Someone just called me and asked me to bring Wang Ruqi's computer to the conference room. Aren't you guys here for work"Hearing this, Shen Yian was taken aback.Although today is a company-wide...
