In just one sentence, the two protagonists of the topic appeared in front of them. The colleague who was talking about the topic seemed to be facing a formidable enemy and waited uneasily.
Shen Zhinian's expression remained unchanged and he greeted respectfully: "Good morning, Mr. Lu."
Lu Jingchuan's eyes rolled back and forth on Shen Zhinian, and he responded coldly with a cold voice: "Submit the project as soon as possible."
He looked past her without squinting, and his straight back conveyed the aura of keeping strangers away.
Shen Zhinian's heart ached, but his expression did not change: "Yes."
As a habit, he followed Lu Jingchuan upstairs. Unexpectedly, just one step away, the elevator door slowly closed, isolating the man's cold face inside.
Shen Zhinian was slightly startled, then turned around to take the employee elevator.
Several colleagues who had just been talking about walked in, looked her up and down, and deliberately squeezed in.
She backed away repeatedly until she stood in a corner of the elevator, unable to retreat. Her clothes were wrinkled and the documents in her hand were also folded.
The president's office was on a separate floor. After the elevator opened, Shen Zhinian looked at the high stairs, took a deep breath and started to climb the stairs. The ultra-thin high heels were like beautiful instruments of torture. Every step she took was torturing her.
It seems that I can no longer wear high heels. The child in my belly cannot bear to climb like this every day.
When he arrived at the president's office, Shen Zhinian's face had a thin layer of sweat stains.
Lu Jingchuan stared at her red lips for a while, his Adam's apple rolled, he looked away, and said indifferently: "I have seen today's schedule. Just ask Irene to follow up. If you have nothing to do, go to the secretary's office to work."
Astonishment flashed in Shen Zhinian's eyes, and he subconsciously looked at his desk. Without asking any more questions, he responded obediently: "Okay."
She went to the utility room to get a box, and packed her things in a silent manner. The box was full. She reached out to hug it, but couldn't pick it up, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lu Jingchuan saw it and said quietly: "These are company documents. Don't bother moving them down. Just come up and get them if you need them."
"……good."
Doesn't this cause trouble for her?
Shen Zhinian had no reason to refuse, so he only took out the necessities and packed lightly.
The secretary's office is on the floor below the president's office. If you work here in the future, you won't have to climb stairs.
Shen Zhinian comforted herself like this and pushed open the door of the secretary's room. The five secretaries inside looked up in unison, with complicated and inquiring eyes.
"What's wrong with Secretary Shen?"
"I'll come down to work."
Shen Zhinian spoke concisely and found a corner to sit down.
The others looked at each other, seeing hesitation, joy, and competition in each other's eyes.
Everyone in the secretary's office wanted the position of general secretary next to Lu Jingchuan. Everyone in the secretary's office was jealous of Shen Zhinian. They didn't expect that the opportunity would come so soon.
Within half a day, rumors of Shen Zhinian's demotion were flying everywhere. It was said that she had angered Lu Jingchuan and was about to kill her.
The person who had been fawning for a while silently distanced herself from her, but was still watching. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Shen Zhinian's new desk was quite clean, maybe it had fallen off temporarily.
Shen Zhinian turned her back on what was going on outside the window and continued to work as usual, but she exercised more. After she accidentally sprained her ankle, she gave up high heels completely and started wearing flat shoes to work.
On the first day of wearing it, Lu Jingchuan caught him.
Lu Jingchuan lowered his eyes and stared at her shoes, narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you too lazy to look good now?"
Shen Zhinian couldn't say she was pregnant and made excuses: "I have a sprained foot and it's not healed yet."
"Lie." Lu Jingchuan's face suddenly darkened. Her feet were crooked. At that time, she could still wear high heels on one foot, and she didn't feel any discomfort while rolling on the bed with him until the early hours of the morning.
In the final analysis, his heart is not with him anymore.
Shen Zhinian remained silent.
Lu Jingchuan's voice seemed to be frozen: "I helped you send Shen Zhiguo to prison for five months, are you trying to kill the donkey?"
After rescuing her mother in the casino that day, Shen Zhinian stopped asking. Shen Zhiguo thought that Shen Zhiguo had learned a lesson and hadn't come all this time. It turned out that he was sent to prison by Lu Jingchuan.
Shen Zhinian's mind was shaken, and his figure swayed, but made no move.
Now that Lu Jingchuan hates her so much, he probably doesn't want her to get close to him.
What's more... she doesn't want to admit defeat yet.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, there is nothing I can do in return." She replied dryly.
Lu Jingchuan's eyes grew colder, and he sarcastically said: "You have nothing to repay. If you can't repay, then you won't repay. There's no point in forcing you."
What does he mean?
Lu Jingchuan pressed the internal line and directly informed the personnel: "Recruit a general secretary and demote Shen Zhinian by one level."
"Okay." Renshi was quite confused and agreed hesitantly.
After hanging up, Lu Jingchuan looked at Shen Zhinian: "Except for the company documents, take everything else down with you. When the new person arrives, come up and hand it over to her."
Shen Zhinian pursed his lips. This happened so suddenly without any warning.
No, maybe Lu Jingchuan has been planning this for a long time.
She lowered her head and continued to say thanks: "Thank you, Mr. Lu. I have nothing else to do. Just call me when the newcomer arrives."
After saying that, he turned around and left, not forgetting to be gentle when closing the door, as considerate as ever.
Thank you, Mr. Lu? Lu Jingchuan played these four words repeatedly in his ears and laughed angrily. Do you really want to leave him? He wanted to see how long she could last.
The next second the demotion announcement was sent out, the company was quietly agitated. Everyone who met would ask each other if they had seen the company announcement.
The person who originally fawned over Shen Zhinian had mixed feelings, while the people in the secretary's office were proud and secretly competing with each other.
Shen Zhinian's expression remained as before, as if nothing had happened.
In the five years since I came to Lu's, this is the first time I have taken my meal card to the cafeteria for lunch so diligently.
As soon as he sat down, a figure walked over and his head felt hot. The soup dripped down from his head. The man quickly covered his mouth and apologized: "I'm sorry, I didn't behave properly. I'll pay for your dry cleaning fee."
Shen Zhinian raised his eyes and looked over without any emotion: "Irene, this is very childish."
This was not the first time she encountered such difficulties after the demotion notice came out. The elevator didn't wait for her, she was late for meetings without notifying her, etc. It happened all the time, but she dealt with it silently. Now she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to treat her personally. Attacked?
Amid Irene's twitching expression, Shen Zhinian calmly took out the toilet paper and wiped it briefly. After returning the dishes and chopsticks, he made another one and packed it away.
Fortunately, she has the habit of bringing a change of clothes.
When I returned to the secretary's office, I saw the darkness on my desk from a distance.
Shen Zhinian walked over quickly and saw that the coffee had knocked over the table and all the documents were stained. The coffee dripped along the edge of the table and onto the carpet, making the white carpet extremely dirty.
There was no one else in the office, and it was not worth calling for surveillance. She packed it up silently, and then asked the cleaning lady to clean the carpet. She planned to take the clothes and change them first.
She paused when she took out her clothes. The clean and tidy clothes were all covered with pen marks, mixed with lipstick and foundation, and she couldn't wear them at all.
You can't go to work dirty.
Shen Zhinian thought about it again and again, struggled to prepare mentally, and dialed the internal line: "Mr. Lu, are you convenient now?"
