Amy’s cute face twisted with anger, yet she forced out a smile, looking particularly terrifying. "Don’t play innocent with . I despise fresh grads like you who have no skills other than flaunting and snitching!"
Hearing such blatant defamation, Bai Yiran couldn’t hold back anymore, "Manager Ai, please mind your words. What do you an by flaunting?"
"Hah! Everyone knows what’s going on; do I need to explain? Alright, since the manager has spoken, just give that report by the weekend! Save the manager from accusing of oppressing newcors and targeting you intentionally!"
With that, Amy stord back into her office and slamd the door.
Bai Yiran understood that Chen Lusheng must have said sothing to Amy to make her so angry. But she didn’t complain to Chen Lusheng at all, yet it turned into her snitching!
Sure enough, before long, rumors about Bai Yiran and Chen Lusheng started spreading throughout Huai.
One was a young girl fresh out of college, and the other a stable, charming older boss. The rumors were almost unanimously defaming Bai Yiran, calling her shaless, a vixen, sinister...
But in truth, Bai Yiran did nothing! She only had lunch with Chen Lusheng.
The entire afternoon, colleagues at Huai looked at Bai Yiran with scrutinizing or disdainful eyes, leaving her feeling at a loss.
Luckily, Leng Yichen was on a business trip and not in the company. Otherwise, if such rumors reached his ears, Bai Yiran couldn’t imagine the outco.
However, Bai Yiran seed to have overlooked one thing.
Huai International was Leng Yichen’s company. What could he possibly not know?
Having just disembarked from the airplane, Leng Yichen was sitting in a car heading to the hotel, listening to Anna’s report on the phone.
"I understand. Don’t worry about it; let it be." With a face showing signs of fatigue from the long flight, Leng Yichen’s voice was indifferent.
"Okay, Mr. Leng."
Ending the call, Leng Yichen closed his eyes and leaned back against the seat, his brow slightly furrowed, yet there was an indescribable smile on his lips.
As the workday neared its end, the exhausting day was finally drawing to a close. Bai Yiran deeply felt her resilience was not strong, as she sensed unfriendly, contemptuous eyes on her from everyone.
This feeling gave Bai Yiran the urge to escape. Was this the darkness of the workplace Leng Yichen spoke of?
Did she really fail to prove Leng Yichen wrong and couldn’t even survive the probation period?
At the end of the workday at 5:30, everyone quickly left as if it were school dismissal. Once Bai Yiran finished packing up, she also headed to the elevator to leave.
"Is that her?"
"Yes, that’s her!"
"She really is quite beautiful..."
"No kidding, how else would she seduce people?"
Bai Yiran’s appearance sparked so whispered discussions. Although no nas were ntioned, everyone knew who they were talking about, and Bai Yiran was aware too.
They were talking about her...
Bai Yiran knew she wasn’t at fault, but she also understood that she couldn’t explain this clearly.
Suddenly her phone rang; it was an unlisted number, but she knew whose call it was.
The ringtone continued for a long ti before Bai Yiran answered, "What’s up?"
"It’s ." Gu Manli’s voice ca from the phone.
"I know, just get to the point!"
Bai Yiran knew that with Gu Manli’s disdain for her, she wouldn’t call unless sothing significant had happened.
"Hmph! I’m still your elder, speak more respectfully!" Gu Manli’s voice turned sharp.
Bai Yiran sneered, "Sorry, there’s no need to be polite to soone like you!"
"You!"
"Speak up or I’m hanging up!" Bai Yiran didn’t want to waste a minute on Gu Manli.
After a mont of silence, Gu Manli laughed, "While tidying up today, I found so photos of your mother. Do you want them or should I toss them? They’re just an eyesore to !"
Gu Manli’s tone was as if she was dealing with unwanted trash!
But those weren’t trash! Those were pictures of her mother!
Bai Yiran couldn’t tolerate Gu Manli’s attitude, her hand holding the phone began to tremble, "I want them! If you dare throw them, you’ll regret it!"
