Chapter 259 - 259 Direct Attack
259 Direct Attack
In the past, she had looked down on Shen Luo when they worked at the front desk together. She despised someone like Shen Luo, who had pulled strings to get into the company, but there was nothing she could do.
Later on, for some reason, Shen Luo suddenly left the company, along with the manager of the HR department.
Some people said that President Lian was cracking down on the managers who were corrupt. Others said that Shen Luo had attended a gala with President Lian and President Lian liked her so much that she did not have to come to work anymore.
She had always felt that the second option was impossible. It was only when she saw Shen Yin today that she suddenly realized that she had guessed correctly!
If she were President Lian, she would also choose this dignified and beautiful Miss Shen, not the uncouth Shen Luo who had mocked her just now!
Afte dealing with Shen Yin, Zhong Xin turned to deal with Shen Luo.
President Lian was in a very good mood today. It was all thanks to Miss Shen’s sudden message.
However, he knew that if President Lian suddenly saw Shen Luo when he was anticipating Shen Yin’s arrival, the storm that had finally cleared up would start again, and this time, he would be the target.
So it was imperative for him to block Shen Luo and send her away as soon as possible. He must not let her affect Miss Shen’s date with President Lian!
After making up his mind, Zhong Xin stood guard outside the elevator and waited for Shen Luo to come up.
Behind him, the office door suddenly opened. President Lian, who was dressed in a black suit, was standing at the door and staring at him sinisterly. “Didn’t you say that she’s here already? Why isn’t she up yet?”
Zhong Xin stole a glance at the elevator and quickly walked to Lian Jing’s side before the President noticed. “Um, Miss Shen is coming up soon. Let me make you a cup of hot tea. When Miss Shen comes, it will also help to warm her up.”
Lian Jing narrowed his eyes and sensed that something was amiss with Zhong Xin. However, he still agreed. “Alright, then you can send the tea in when it’s ready. Make sure it’s just right and not too hot.”
“Alright, alright.” Zhong Xin nodded and bowed as he sent his President back to his office. He quickly assumed a stiff expression and blocked the elevator door.
With a soft ding, the elevator doors finally opened.
Zhong Xin’s face darkened. He imitated Lian Jing’s cold gaze and stared at the woman in the elevator like a venomous snake. He said sternly, “I’m sorry, Miss Shen Luo. Our President Lian isn’t expecting you. Please leave.”
“What do you mean? The girl downstairs…” Shen Luo coughed dryly. She was a little frightened by Zhong Xin’s murderous gaze and her arrogant air softened. “The front desk said that I could come up. How dare you stop me here?”
Zhong Xin closed his eyes. He did not want to stoop to the level of this shrew. With excellent self-restraint, he forced a polite smile and said, “Alright, come with me then.”
Shen Luo proudly straightened her back and sneered.
She thought to herself that she had guessed correctly. Lian Jing had personally sent someone to follow her and protect her.
Shen Luo’s heart was filled with joy when she thought about how he had secretly protected her.
It was obvious. How could a President like Lian Jing be willing to only have Shen Yin?
So what if Lian Jing had rejected her for Shen Yin’s sake? Men always wanted what they could not have. Shen Yin had been with him for so long that Lian Jing had probably tired of her long ago. Perhaps he wanted to try something new with her.
Since he had treated her so well, why not seize the opportunity to thank him personally?
In addition, when the receptionist had let her up just now, she had ground her teeth but was not able to stop Shen Luo. That made Shen Luo feel even more confident.
Lian Jing must have expected her to come to the office to look for him, so he had specially instructed the front desk to let her come up, right?
She followed Zhong Xin, feeling happy and surprised. She had decided to forget about Lian Jing, but this turn of events had surprised her!
Zhong Xin did not know what she was thinking. He walked in front with a serious expression and led her to the door of the stairwell without a word. Then, he grabbed her arm and threw her into the stairwell when she was least expecting it. He nimbly locked the door.
Shen Luo did not expect Zhong Xin to suddenly grab her. She was stunned for a moment before she furiously knocked on the door of the stairwell. “Zhong Xin, what are you doing? Let me in! I want to see Lian Jing! I’ll get Lian Jing to fire you! Just you wait!”
Zhong Xin stood behind the door and said coldly to the woman who was causing a ruckus inside, “I advise you to leave quickly. Otherwise, I’ll get the security officers downstairs to publicly throw you out of the Lian Corporation.”
It was useless to waste his breath on a woman like Shen Luo because she would only hear what she wanted to hear. If what he said was not to her liking, she would pester him endlessly.
Therefore, the best solution was to not say anything to her. He would save his breath and use the direct approach. Let her hit a brick wall and retreat.
