Chapter 764 - 757: Center of Attention (Part 6)
I originally thought I had caught Bai Yiran’s weakness and could spread it around the company. Even if it wouldn’t do much to her, it would tarnish her reputation among the employees, and then I could tell these things to Leng Liewei, making him see clearly what kind of daughter-in-law he had.
What Qi Hui didn’t expect was that the situation surprisingly reversed at the last moment. Indeed, she hadn’t been in the office earlier; she was in the pantry making a call to Leng Liewei, so she didn’t see the leave notice Bai Yiran posted.
Now not only did she fail to make Bai Yiran feel embarrassed, but she herself was outsmarted by Bai Yiran.
Qi Hui gritted her teeth unwillingly, yet couldn’t utter a single word in rebuttal.
"Is there anything else, Director Qi?" Bai Yiran cast a mocking glance at Qi Hui, then lifted her foot to leave. After taking a few steps, she stopped again, turned back, and playfully said, "Director Qi, don’t forget to pay the fine to the finance department."
With that, Bai Yiran left with a smile on her lips.
Qi Hui’s face twitched, evidently furious.
Xiao Dan approached cautiously with a fine in hand, and grumbled in a muffled voice, "Well, Director Qi... this is your fine..."
Qi Hui glared at the pink-colored fine in Xiao Dan’s hand and shot him a fierce look. "Get out of my way!"
After issuing such harsh words, Qi Hui lifted her foot to leave. Xiao Dan, however, bit his lip and followed up, "Director Qi, refusing to pay the fine will get you reported company-wide, and then you’ll be the talk for a week, that wouldn’t be..."
Qi Hui stopped, turned around, and glared fiercely at Xiao Dan, who was so frightened he didn’t dare breathe heavily.
"Humph!" Qi Hui snorted coldly and took the fine from Xiao Dan’s hand.
Back in the office, she called Amy in. "Go inquire why Bai Yiran left work early today."
Amy thought for a moment, "No need to ask, it should be for accompanying Mr. Leng to Dingtian Group’s chairman’s birthday banquet tonight?"
"What?" Qi Hui stood up. Dingtian Group has always been an important partner of Huamei International, and the chairman of Dingtian and Leng Liewei have been good friends for decades. Leng Liewei was definitely going to attend tonight’s banquet. However, what was infuriating was that Leng Liewei didn’t inform her!
Watching Qi Hui’s face grow darker, Amy swallowed. She noticed that after Qi Hui got pregnant, she became increasingly hard to serve, completely losing her previous competence. Was it truly because of that saying about pregnancy making one dull for three years?
"Anything else, Director?" If not, she’d like to leave.
Qi Hui’s face was unpredictable, and finally, she said coldly to Amy, "Go prepare a gown for me!"
"A gown?" Amy was puzzled, why the need for a gown all of a sudden?
"Just go, stop rambling!" Qi Hui shouted.
"...Alright!" Amy quickly agreed and fled from Qi Hui’s office.
Qi Hui stood in front of her desk, managing her emotions. The doctor advised her not to often get upset during pregnancy, but she couldn’t control herself. Everything was going so poorly, how could she not be angry?
The day when Huamei International becomes hers and her child’s would be the true day of peace!
Thinking about it, Qi Hui couldn’t hold back and clenched her fist. That bitch Luna just wouldn’t divorce Leng Liewei, so she couldn’t gain recognition nominally. It seemed like she could only start from getting shares of Huamei International!
Leng Liewei still holds twenty percent of Huamei International’s shares. No matter what, she must get those shares into her hands!
