Chapter 597: Chapter 616: The Perverted Woman
Su Lingling and that guy called Mingji had by then taken their seats on the chairs nearby, with Su Lingling sitting with her legs crossed and saying to the boss, "Boss, do you know how much we’re looking to procure?"
The boss imdiately rubbed his hands together and asked, "How much do you want? We have as much as you need. We’re direct factory sales. If my store doesn’t have enough, we can get the factory to send it over right away. I assure you of high quality at a low price, and I definitely won’t ss up what needs to be done."
Su Lingling giggled and said, "You sure know how to do business, unlike your waiter, who really lacks standards."
The boss quickly replied, "Yes, yes, she can’t make those decisions. It’s better to talk to
about it."
Just then, Wang Xiaojuan brought over two cups of water, placed them on the small table in the middle, and was about to turn around and leave when Su Lingling hurriedly said, "Whoa, hold on, old classmate, what’s the rush? I’m here to look after your business, you know. With such a straight face, that’s not right."
When the boss heard this, he was montarily confused. Old classmates typically would be thrilled to see each other, like seeing that pretty girl just now, but Wang Xiaojuan didn’t seem to have a good relationship with this old classmate.
With a stern face, Wang Xiaojuan said, "I’m sorry, the business is being handled by our boss. I have custors on my side to attend to." She then disregarded Su Lingling and ca straight over to where Michelle and Li Yifei were seated.
Michelle imdiately whispered, "What’s wrong with her?"
Wang Xiaojuan looked upset, but still spoke gently, "She’s my college classmate. Zhao Mingji is also from our university. His father and my dad worked in the sa district, and we got along fine. During our sophomore year, our families arranged an engagent for us, but we didn’t have any feelings for each other. It was just because of our fathers’ arrangent that we were together. Su Lingling, however, has always had a thing for Zhao Mingji. They kept things ambiguous, and I couldn’t care less. After my father had issues, he imdiately dumped
and got together with Su Lingling. I didn’t take it to heart at first, but Su Lingling has been continuously causing trouble for . It’s infuriating."
"What trouble could she possibly have with you?" Michelle was perplexed.
"Hmph, she’s just a psycho. She was never as good as
at anything in school, so I always overshadowed her. Now, it seems like she wants to get the upper hand in every way possible. Who knows what she’s thinking."
Li Yifei could understand Su Lingling’s ntality. It could be said that Su Lingling suffered from so kind of psychological issue. Because of past disappointnts, once a petty person gained so leverage, they would trample those who used to be superior, mock and strike at them, to satisfy their warped psychology.
"I’ve already changed jobs twice, and each ti, she cos to make trouble, insisting on making it impossible for
to stay. She’s simply an unreasonable person." The more Wang Xiaojuan spoke, the angrier she got, and she slamd the counter with resentnt.
At this point, Su Lingling imdiately said in a sardonic tone, "Oh my, Boss Qian, take a look at your waitress there, banging on the table in front of custors. I’d advise you to let go of such a waitress sooner rather than later, or you might as well not bother running your business."
The boss also realized that Su Lingling was obviously there to target Wang Xiaojuan. He smiled and said, "As long as we can close the deal, I’ll fire her straightaway." Knowing that Su Lingling was targeting Wang Xiaojuan, he naturally wanted to exploit the situation. If he imdiately agreed to fire Wang Xiaojuan, Su Lingling might just up and leave, and he wasn’t about to be that foolish.
Su Lingling’s lips curled up, and she said, "What’s the matter, Boss Qian? It seems you don’t trust our Mingji. Mingji, show Boss Qian the procurent list from your unit."
Sure enough, Zhao Mingji handed over a list and a work card to Boss Qian, saying with a stern face, "Boss Qian, my na is Zhao Mingji. You can go and inquire around, I work at the Qingping County Governnt Procurent Office."
After carefully checking, Boss Qian’s heart lit up. He wasn’t new to governnt procurent deals and could tell the authenticity of a work card. Moreover, many items listed were indeed available in his store. The procurent for the year amounted to almost a hundred thousand, and the profit margins in this line of business were high. Selling a hundred thousand could profit him about forty or fifty thousand. Even after giving a benefit of ten or eighteen thousand, he could still net thirty or forty thousand.
For a store like his, a year’s normal profit was just a few thousand. If he could earn thirty or forty thousand all at once, it was a considerable temptation for him. He handed Zhao Mingji a cigarette and said, "It’s not that I don’t trust you, but governnt procurent these days all require bidding, and my store isn’t that big. I’m afraid I won’t win the bid and end up getting my hopes up for nothing."
Su Lingling glanced at Wang Xiaojuan and said leisurely to Boss Qian, "If such a small matter can’t be handled, we wouldn’t even bother coming here. Boss Qian, I just want you to fire that Wang Xiaojuan. Then we’ll do business with you. Surely a re shop assistant isn’t worth such protection from you?"
Boss Qian truly didn’t regard clerks like Wang Xiaojuan as important. Nowadays, hiring a service worker was nothing difficult at all, just post a notice and loads of people would co to apply. Even if the negotiation failed, there wouldn’t be any loss. Plus, he could make friends with Zhao Mingji, which may open up future opportunities.
Therefore, Boss Qian imdiately nodded repeatedly, saying, "No problem." Then, turning around, he addressed Wang Xiaojuan, "Wang Xiaojuan, as of now, you are no longer an employee of our store."
Ever since Su Lingling had co in, Wang Xiaojuan had known this would be the outco. She bit down on her silver teeth and clenched her fists tightly, furiously saying, "Su Lingling, will you ever have enough?"
With a chuckle, Su Lingling said, "How could I ever have enough? Have you forgotten what you said back in school when I told you I liked Mingji? You said that Mingji was soone I could never catch up to, and told
to kill that fantasy early. But now I’ve proven that Mingji does like , so it’s ti you paid the price you deserve."
Wang Xiaojuan replied angrily, "I told you long ago, at that ti, our families had already arranged our engagent, and no one could oppose it. I said those things for your own good, to save you from getting hurt in the end."
"Haha... That’s hilarious. Why don’t you just admit you secretly liked Mingji? Using your parents as an excuse, you really are a despicable woman. That’s why I’ll deal with you using even more despicable ans."
"Fine, fine, just go ahead and deal with ."
"Rest assured, I most certainly will. Wherever you work, I’ll co to find you. I’ll make sure you can’t stay anywhere long, switching one job after another – it’s one of the greatest pleasures of my life, giggle..."
Li Yifei and Michelle exchanged looks. This Su Lingling was not only twisted, but incurably so. Even for a romantic rival, there was no need to be so ruthlessly vindictive, was there?
"Wang Xiaojuan, you’re not the daughter of so bureau director anymore, you’re nothing now. You don’t match up to Mingji, and you’re nothing compared to . Our Mingji can now easily issue soone a procurent contract worth tens of thousands. He holds power, while you? You’re just a little waitress. Even if you keep working your whole life, you’ll still just be a waitstaff, destined to serve us, hahaha..."
Wang Xiaojuan’s face turned bright red, and her eyes shone with tears of grievance, while Michelle pulled Wang Xiaojuan behind her and angrily said, "Will you ever stop?"
Li Yifei was taken aback. He had not expected Michelle to get angry. The usually gentle girl he knew had never seed the type to get angry, but when she did, it proved to be quite impressive.
"Wow, who do you think you are?" Su Lingling looked at Michelle with a sardonic tone, feeling a deep animosity towards her. Michelle was indeed quite beautiful, and Zhao Mingji had been stealthily glancing at this pretty girl every now and then. So when Michelle flared up, she imdiately targeted Michelle.
Michelle glared at Su Lingling and said, "I’m Xiaojuan’s high school classmate, and I know her character well. She’s nothing like what you’re saying. And even if she was, do you need to push her to this point?"
"What’s it to you if I like it? You think you can champion her cause? You better assess whether you have the ability to do so."
Michelle was now dressed in professional attire, clearly a white-collar woman, while Li Yifei was in a security guard’s outfit. Standing together with a security guard, it was obvious she could only be a minor employee from so company – Su Lingling naturally didn’t take her seriously.
Not waiting for Michelle’s response, Su Lingling continued, "If you want to stick your nose in this, you better weigh your own capabilities. Believe it or not, with one phone call, I can make sure you can’t stay at your company? Just so nosy parker trying to play the hero. Stay where you belong. If you’re itching for it, there’s a karaoke across the way, a bunch of n waiting for soone just like you."
Su Lingling had a way with insults, and Michelle was not used to this. Suddenly she found herself speechless with a pale face, her lips trembling, unable to speak.
Seeing Michelle humiliated, Wang Xiaojuan felt guilty and imdiately pulled Michelle, saying, "Michelle, let’s leave it. Let’s go." She didn’t want Michelle to get involved with soone as mad as Su Lingling.
Li Yifei hadn’t intended to get involved, but since Su Lingling had even insulted Michelle, leaving Michelle virtually speechless and looking so outraged, he couldn’t just stand by. Not to ntion the deep feelings Michelle had for him; just on the basis of being colleagues, Li Yifei couldn’t stay on the sidelines.
