Meanwhile, at Xinghua Corporation.

“This is the summary of this year’s accounts.” Gao Youyi carried a large pile of documents in her arms and threw them on Ji Liunian’s table with a bang. Without saying a word, she turned around and left.

Her colleagues nearby kept quiet out of fear, but Liu Menghan came over and said, “Hmph! For all her unreasonableness in the past, she’s paying for it now!”

Ji Liunian and Gao Youyi did not have much of a grudge initially. Liu Menghan joined the company around the same time as Gao Youyi. However, Gao Youyi hooked up with Wang Shibo right off the bat and won his favor. She rose to the rank of assistant manager in a short time.

Liu Menghan was the one who brought Ji Liunian into the company, so she was assumed to be on Liu Menghan’s side. Gao Youyi and Liu Menghan had never gotten along, so she did not like Ji Liunian by association. She would usually assign more work to Ji Liunian and steal her credit.

However, Ling Yichuan expressed his approval of Ji Liunian that day. “Ji Liunian is a hundred times better than you.” No matter how incompetent the management of Xinghua Corporation was, they could still read between the lines. Ji Liunian was immediately promoted to assistant manager, on equal footing with Gao Youyi. She was even put in charge of the financial audit for this year. That was why Gao Youyi handed over the stack of documents to her in resentment.

“Even if it wasn’t because of that, we would be the one to do this in the first place.” Ji Liunian was very calm. Actually, she did not care about office politics. She took this job as a learning opportunity because she hoped to help her father in the future. Her father had no son, and she did not have any siblings. She would be the one to inherit and develop the Ji family’s business. If it were not for the sudden series of events, she would not have come here to work in secret.

However, this was a blessing in disguise. Being able to come into contact with a company’s finances for a year would also help her when she took over the reins from her father in the future.

“So what? We’re the ones working our a*s off but she’s the one claiming all the credits! If she hadn’t slept her way up, she wouldn’t have had this opportunity!”

Ji Liunian knew that with the bad blood between Liu Menghan and Gao Youyi—even if Liu Menghan was not the one delivering the punches—this opportunity to hold her head high still made her feel good!

“Alright, alright. With so much information, it won’t be easy to finish it in a week. Looks like we can’t rest during this period of time.” Looking at the stack of information, she could not help but frown. By the looks of Gao Youyi, she was not going to lend a helping hand at all and Ji Liunian was left to fend for herself.

“What are you afraid of? I’ll help you!” Liu Menghan smiled and reached out to put her hand on Ji Liunian’s shoulder. She winked at her and said ambiguously, “Hey, is there something going on between you and Ling Yichuan? Otherwise, why would he help you the moment he stepped into the company? Or was his breath taken away at the sight of your pretty face and he fell in love with you?”
