“Oh, and one more thing, the eldest sister misspoke earlier.” Shen Wan flashed a friendly smile and corrected, “It’s not firing; it’s resigning. Those five people all chose to leave on their own. 1 tried to persuade them to stay, but unfortunately, it didn’t work.”
Shen Ru’s eyes narrowed slightly as she approached. “Do you think your little tricks can fool everyone?”
“Tricks?” Shen Wan looked at her with a puzzled expression.
“How long do you plan to keep pretending?” Shen Ru sneered, her disdain barely concealed. If Shen Wan had been straightforward, she might have given her some credit, but alas, a mistress’ upbringing remained just that. In ancient noble families, she would have been an illegitimate daughter unfit for the main stage, with a touch of a parochial air about her.
Shen Wan’s expression became even more innocent, her clear pupils reflecting the unattractive look of a woman angered.
Shen Ru felt uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, brushed past Shen Wan, and walked away.
“Wait—”
Shen Ru and the man behind her both stopped simultaneously. They turned around, and Shen Wan also turned, once again facing off.
“I’m curious, big sister. You’ve never been to Mingya, and you’re not in charge of the group’s human resources, so how do you know so much about the personnel changes in my small, struggling company?”
Shen Ru was taken aback by her sudden question.
Shen Wan took a half step forward, didn’t look at Shen Ru, and directed her gaze straight at the man standing silently to the side. “This should be the famous Mr. Li, right?”
Li Wenjin’s eyelids twitched.
“It’s no wonder you’ve become my sister’s right-hand man, with your refinement, amiability, and courtesy.”
After saying this, without paying attention to the reactions of the two, she smiled and turned away.
Her slender yet upright figure in the well-fitted suit displayed a steady and composed stride.
Shen Ru’s eyes flickered with uncertainty.
Li Wenjin, on the other hand, half-closed his eyes, appearing lost in thought.
“Now you understand why I had someone monitor her, don’t you?” Shen Ru spoke softly.
“It’s no use being quick with words; you can’t judge a horse until you’ve ridden it.” Li Wenjin raised his hand, pushed up his glasses, and maintained an extremely calm and restrained tone, both in his expression and manner.
In this world, there are two types of clever people: those who are genuinely smart and those who only think they are.
Even though the brief exchange just now had made Li Wenjin reassess Shen Wan to some extent, he still didn’t believe she belonged to the first category.
If she were truly smart, she wouldn’t have shown off her verbal prowess before establishing herself and offended Shen Ru. Moreover, she shouldn’t have fired five employees over such an absurd reason as being late, giving others ammunition against her.
Shen Ru said, “Although that’s true, it’s better to prevent trouble in advance than to regret it later.”
Li Wenjin sighed softly, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible. “I’m just afraid that you’ll tire yourself out from overthinking…”
“Wenjin, my current position doesn’t allow for the slightest mistake. Do you understand?” Shen Ru raised her eyes, her face as lovely as blooming flowers in March.
Li Wenjin was momentarily stunned, then softly promised, “Don’t worry; 1’11 support you.”
Shen Ru smiled.
Li Wenjin heard his own heartbeats pounding.
Meanwhile, Shen Wan stood in front of the office door of the Human Resources Manager, her hand lightly tapping.
“Come in.” .𝒎
She pushed the door open.
Walking through the reception area and bypassing a row of antique bookshelves, Shen Wan stood in front of the desk. However, her gaze was inadvertently drawn to a man seated on the couch, engrossed in reading documents. His well-defined fingers turned page after page, his expression focused as if he were engaged in something profoundly sacred. Even though he heard the noise and sensed someone entering, he never once looked up.
A man as beautiful as jade, unmatched in the world—Shen Qian!
How could he be here?
“Ahem!”
It was only when a light cough broke the silence that Shen Wan withdrew her inquisitive and puzzled gaze, turning her attention to the main person she had come to find today—the Human Resources Manager of Mingda, Xu Ming..
