Chapter 1726: Chapter 1727: I Can’t Stand Her

But she didn’t care and said flippantly, “You’re not going to help me work, so why should I listen to you.”

She promptly pulled Chu Xi aside, “Alright, the elevator is about to close, I’m going first, take your time.”

After she entered, she pressed the company’s floor number. Not long after, the elevator doors indeed closed, and Chu Xi’s twisted angry face was left outside, allowing Rong Yan’s ears a moment of peace.

…

Upstairs, Estelle and Zhu Zhu immediately surrounded her as soon as she entered the company, nervously checking her up and down before letting out a relieved breath, “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, Rong Yan, are you alright? The Vice President and I saw Chu Xi downstairs just now, she didn’t give you a hard time, did she?” Zhu Zhu was equally worried.

Rong Yan smiled, patted her head, and replied, “I’m fine. She just stopped me to say a few words.”

“What did she say?” Estelle was the first to ask.

Zhu Zhu saw her ask and got nervous too, looking eagerly at Rong Yan, following with, “Rong Yan, what did she say to you?”

“She’s so annoying, if she weren’t the eldest daughter of the Chu Family, I’d want to slap her twice!”

Zhu Zhu fumed, her round face tight, “I found out that our cooperation fell through because she was sabotaging us from behind the scenes, and she even tried to embarrass you at the awards ceremony last night. Luckily, Mr. Li was there, so her scheme didn’t succeed! She’s so vile, why doesn’t anyone deal with her? Just because her family is well-off doesn’t mean she can always act with impunity!”

“We all worked so hard drafting contracts, discussing plans, negotiating collaborations. We pulled several all-nighters trying to make sure the next project went smoothly, and yet she just disregards all our efforts and takes it away from us!”

Seeing her angry and glaring, her hands clenched into fists, Rong Yan gently patted her shoulder, softly comforting her, “It’s alright, didn’t we secure the collaboration? Don’t dwell on past issues, let bygones be bygones. I know everyone worked hard, I’ll give out bonuses this month!”

Zhu Zhu, after being comforted, felt a bit embarrassed instead, her face blushing as she looked at Rong Yan with sparkling eyes, “Boss, you’re so awesome and magnanimous!”

“Haha.” Rong Yan was amused by her straightforwardness and laughed.

Estelle watched them exchange jokes and frowned, interrupting seriously, “You haven’t answered my question, why did Chu Xi come to you, what did she say? Are you okay?”

Seeing her concern, Rong Yan felt full of gratitude and smiled, her expression relaxed, “Honestly, I’m really fine. She approached me to ask if I was the one behind her not winning the award last night, I told her it wasn’t me, she didn’t believe it, but that’s okay, I can’t force her to believe me, so I just came upstairs.”

“That simple?”

Rong Yan nodded, “That simple!”

She said somewhat amused, “Estelle, what are you thinking, you don’t suppose I got into a fight with her downstairs, do you?”

Estelle rolled her eyes but seeing that Rong Yan could still joke, relaxed quite a bit, “I was worried she’d beat you up!”

“She can’t beat me.”

“You know she can’t beat you?”

“I had three jobs abroad; she’s a pampered princess, no match for me. I’m afraid if I punched her, I’d knock her out and have to pay compensation.” To prove her point, she even flexed her ‘solid’ muscles.
