Fu Bing’s words drew all eyes to Lin Ying.
Shen Shichen frowned displeasedly.
Lin Ying secretly clenched her fists, mustering a smile. Yet, a pitiful fragility lingered in her eyes.
"I just think Miss Fu is so beautiful, I couldn’t help but stare."
"If only I could be as beautiful as Miss Fu. I hope Miss Fu won’t be angry with ."
After speaking, her body trembled slightly as she looked fearfully at Fu Bing, as if terrified Fu Bing would suddenly strike her.
"Angry?" Fu Bing savored the word with amusent.
Xiaoi was infuriated by Lin Ying’s feigned innocent and pitiable deanor.
Her sister might have forgotten, but she rembered. Lin Ying had once been an assistant at her sister’s studio. At that ti, Lin Ying was working as an extra at the film studio to earn her college tuition. As it happened, her sister needed extras for a film, and Lin Ying joined the crew with the others. Lin Ying then deliberately played the sympathy card in front of her sister, recounting her hardships. Her sister happened to need a personal assistant at that mont and hired Lin Ying. Lin Ying was usually responsible for shopping and such, and her sister even let her keep the change every ti. But her kindness only nurtured an ungrateful wretch. After her sister went to prison, Lin Ying imdiately slandered her in the dia, claiming her sister mistreated employees and was never good to them. A vile character through and through! And now she had the audacity to openly denigrate her sister.
Xiaoi spoke up, "Sister, that’s Lin Mo! The one you pitied back then and gave a chance to so she could attend college peacefully. She’s also the one who later went to the dia slandering you, claiming you treated her badly!"
"Lin Mo?" Fu Bing had a flash of realization. "No wonder she seed familiar. Has she had plastic surgery?"
"Yes, she even spent so ti in the entertainnt industry, though she never made it big."
Their discussion, as if no one else were present, made Lin Ying want to strangle them.
They were all just companions here, what right did they have to be so smug?
Shen Shichen shot Lin Ying a glare, and Qiu Yin imdiately understood and led Lin Ying away.
Lin Ying’s resentful gaze fixed on Fu Bing.
Fu Bing definitely doesn’t know what she’s up against. It’s common for these n in the business world to exchange female companions. So of the n present are particularly wild. For Fu Bing to co here is to walk right into her own demise.
Fu Bing played several rounds of golf with them, with wins and losses evenly split. During the ga, they sealed deals on two projects.
When Shen Shichen wanted to discuss other projects with her, Fu Bing had Xiaoi try playing golf. Xiaoi was eager to try.
Fu Bing helped her adjust her posture. "Try again."
Xiaoi confidently struck the ball. However, she used too much force, and the ball flew far and wide.
"Ah, Sister, I’ve embarrassed you!" Xiaoi looked mortified.
"It’s fine to lose a little face. Don’t worry."
Xiaoi quickly recovered her spirits and continued to play.
Yang Ningzheng was responsible for communicating with several other CEOs, yet his gaze occasionally drifted towards Fu Bing and Xiaoi.
Yang Ningzheng’s company chairman, Liu Xinping, said with so dissatisfaction, "Yang Ning, no matter how capable a woman is in business, she’s but a plaything. No matter how beautiful, she’s still just a plaything."
Even though Yang Ningzheng was adept at navigating social situations, his expression instantly turned cold. "Director Liu, before you speak, you should be clear about whom you’re discussing!"
"I’m talking about Fu Bing. You’ve given her too much leeway, allowing her to get the upper hand. Who’s going to deal with the fallout later?"
Shen Shichen frowned. "Director Liu, if your prejudice is this blatant, I see no need for us to continue our business discussion."
Liu Xinping looked disdainfully at Shen Shichen. "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re after. You want Fu Bing. She’s just a woman; take her if you like. When you’re done playing with her, just send her back."
"Did you bother to ask my opinion before making such a statent, Director Liu?" Fu Bing’s chilly voice rose from behind them.
Liu Xinping glared at Yang Ningzheng, indignant that he hadn’t been warned of Fu Bing’s approach.
Liu Xinping, in his fifties, had always been pampered due to his family background. He was arrogant and held everyone else in contempt. Even though Fu Bing was seen as formidable by many, he felt she should be begging him. He controlled the largest pharmaceutical company. What could she possibly do if she was dissatisfied with him?
"A year ago, my Liu Family graciously agreed to sign for your dicine, giving you a chance to make a coback. You should be eternally grateful! Now that you’re back on your feet, you dare to put on airs with ?" Liu Xinping spoke coldly.
"If I rember correctly," Fu Bing replied, "the contract I signed back then was specifically tied to President Yang. My agreent was with him, regardless of where he worked. It has nothing to do with you, Director Liu, so you needn’t take credit."
"Would there be a Yang Ningzheng without ?"
Fu Bing chuckled lightly. "Without you, President Yang would still be President Yang. But you, Director Liu, without President Yang, would be like a powerful beast missing a limb—still capable, but ultimately crippled."
Liu Xinping had never been so openly humiliated; his hands trembled with rage. "I’d like to see what becos of Yang Ningzheng without my Liu Family’s support! Yang Ningzheng, as of today, you are relieved of all your positions in my company! I, Liu Xinping, cannot afford an employee like you!"
Yang Ningzheng maintained a calm expression. "I will imdiately arrange to complete all pre-resignation procedures."
Liu Xinping stord off in a fury.
Shen Shichen, who had observed the entire exchange, looked at Fu Bing with admiration. "Miss Fu, what a brilliant strategy."
Fu Bing rely smiled without a word.
Yang Ningzheng’s influence in Liu Xinping’s company had been growing, leading to increasing resentnt from Liu Xinping and other executives. Their obstruction was becoming a significant hurdle. If Yang Ningzheng didn’t leave his original company, his future achievents would be limited, and it would also hinder his future plans to work with her. Only by maneuvering Liu Xinping into voluntarily letting Yang Ningzheng go could he leave cleanly. Otherwise, he would inevitably be sared. For soone as fastidious as Yang Ningzheng, that would be a repulsive situation.
Seeing Su Junxian approaching from a distance, Yang Ningzheng quickly and with relief followed Liu Xinping.
Su Junxian, noticing Fu Bing standing with Shen Shichen, told the caddy to speed up the cart.
Shen Shichen raised an eyebrow and said to Fu Bing, "It seems I truly can’t be left unsupervised. The previous one hasn’t fully departed, and a new one arrives."
Fu Bing, also seeing Su Junxian, replied, "President Shen, perhaps you should reflect on your usual conduct. Are you genuinely here to discuss cooperation, or are you deliberately trying to vex ?"
Shen Shichen laughed heartily. "I’m more interested in you personally than in doing business with you."
"Then I’m afraid my interest lies solely in business."
"Afraid you’ll fall for if you spend too much ti with ?"
Fu Bing smiled faintly. "It seems the won you’ve associated with in the past were quite dull, granting you an abundance of misplaced confidence. However, considering you bring soone as diocre and thoughtless as Miss Lin to social engagents, it speaks volus about the level of your taste in won."
Shen Shichen’s eyes narrowed dangerously. "Fu Bing, are you deliberately trying to get my attention?"
"And what benefit would I gain from attracting your attention?" Fu Bing was so exasperated she almost laughed. These n were all insufferably egotistical.
Su Junxian couldn’t help but smile when he saw Fu Bing’s impatient expression. He said, "Xiaobing, why did you co to play golf without waiting for ?"
"I woke up early," Fu Bing said casually, turning to soothe the pouting Xiaoi.
Xiaoi couldn’t help muttering, "Sister, Shen Shichen is so disrespectful. Why do you still want to do business with him?"
"He’s putting on an act."
"Huh?"
"President Yang wouldn’t recomnd soone unreliable. If Shen Shichen weren’t here today, President Yang wouldn’t have been able to extricate himself from Liu Xinping so easily."
