Shen Zhinian was immediately chilled to the bone. She took her hand out of Lin Shanyue's hand and showed a perfect fake smile: "Of course not, how could I do something to Miss Lin?"
Lu Jingchuan's eyes seemed to want to eat her. If she dared to take action, wouldn't he want to chop off her hand?
Hearing what she said, Lu Jingchuan's expression softened slightly, and Shen Zhinian's heart sank deeper and deeper.
In his eyes, he might not even be able to compare to Lin Shanyue's hair.
She received this slap in vain, and she couldn't even fight back.
In an instant, Shen Zhinian calmed down all his emotions and showed a businesslike smile: "Mr. Lu, do you have any other instructions? If not, I will go back to work."
Lu Jingchuan narrowed his eyes slightly and suddenly pointed at a pile of documents on his desk: "It's a mess, take it back and redo it."
Shen Zhinian looked at the untouched document that she had put there last night, knowing that this was another attempt by him to make things difficult for her.
She didn't say anything, silently stepped forward to pick up the file, turned around and returned to the secretary's office.
Lu Jingchuan's face became increasingly ugly when he saw her leaving without saying a word.
He wanted to see how long Shen Zhinian could remain strong.
Lin Shanyue saw that Lu Jingchuan's eyes were always on Shen Zhinian, with a cold chill and unconcealable anger in his eyes.
The scene last night was still etched in her mind.
Sure enough, this woman can't stay any longer!
At this time, Shen Zhinian returned to the secretary's office. There was no way to completely cover up the marks on her face. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that she had been beaten.
Therefore, there are many people who take pleasure in her misfortune and laugh at her jokes.
"Who do you think she was beaten by?"
"I guess it's Miss Lin. It must be because she's so disorderly."
"I also think, why doesn't Miss Lin give her two more slaps?"
Whispering voices penetrated into Shen Zhinian's ears from time to time. She tried her best to hold her breath and focus on her work, ignoring those rumors.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Shen Zhinian glanced at the name and picked it up in surprise.
"Mrs. Lu, what are your orders?"
It had been a while since Mrs. Lu had contacted her, let alone given her any instructions.
A lot of the rights of her president's secretary have been given away.
"Let's meet at noon. I have something to tell you." Mrs. Lu's tone was cold, which gave Shen Zhinian a bad feeling.
"Okay." She agreed, feeling uneasy.
She didn’t know what Mrs. Lu wanted to do with her.
In the blink of an eye, it was noon, and Shen Zhinian came to the coffee shop that he had made an appointment with Mrs. Lu.
Entering the private room, she saw Mrs. Lu sitting elegantly at the table with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Sit down." Seeing her, Mrs. Lu glanced at her lightly.
Shen Zhinian pinched the palm of his hand, came to sit in front of her, and asked politely: "Mrs. Lu, why did you suddenly come to see me?"
"I heard that you are now at the lowest level of secretary and have to handle all secretarial duties?" Mrs. Lu asked with raised eyebrows.
"Yes." Shen Zhinian nodded and admitted.
Mrs. Lu looked at her with a half-smile but not a smile: "It seems that Secretary Shen is quite capable. If others are dealing with so many things, they will definitely be in a hurry, but you are very organized."
Mrs. Lu's words sounded like she was praising her, which made Shen Zhinian feel even more uneasy.
"What do you want Mrs. Lu to say? I still have a lot of work to do in the afternoon." Shen Zhinian smiled slightly.
"There are five million in this card, which is enough for Secretary Shen to have enough food and clothing for the rest of his life. Isn't it just for the money that you have been staying with us in Jingchuan? You will propose to resign this afternoon."
Mrs. Lu pushed a bank card in front of Shen Zhinian, her tone unquestionable.
Shen Zhinian's eyes fell on the card. Five million should be able to cure her mother's disease and raise the child in her belly with less money. She had to say that she was moved.
But considering Lu Jingchuan's character, without his permission, even if she took this card, she might not be able to leave...
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Lu, I can't accept it." Shen Zhinian reluctantly refused.
If she takes the money, is it possible for her to fly away?
There are too many uncertainties, maybe it's her obsession, maybe it's her inner cowardice, maybe it's because she still has a little hope in her heart.
At the very least, she wanted to completely end the relationship with Lu Jingchuan and leave alone without any worries...
During this time, she will also work hard to make money and save money, raise the baby in her belly, cure her mother, and leave here.
Hearing this, Mrs. Lu's face suddenly darkened, and she was filled with anger: "You don't want money, are you still thinking about my son?"
"Shen Zhinian, you must be self-aware." Mrs. Lu's eyes were full of sarcasm.
"Of course I understand what you mean. In fact, I have mentioned resigning before, but Mr. Lu vetoed it. As long as he agrees to my resignation, I will leave immediately." Shen Zhinian did not feel sad by Mrs. Lu's words.
The daughter of a gambling addict like her was indeed not worthy of Lu Jingchuan.
Only a rich young lady like Lin Shanyue, with no stain on her body, could be a perfect match for her. Shen Zhinian had indeed thought of marrying Lu Jingchuan, regardless of his abilities.
But those were just delusions, illusions shattered by Lu Jingchuan himself.
"Are you threatening me with my son now?" Mrs. Lu's eyes were sharp.
Shen Zhinian explained in a neither humble nor overbearing manner: "Of course not, I'm just stating the facts. I still have a lot of work to do, so I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, she stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.
Mrs. Lu glanced at the card she had not accepted and gave a sneer. The appreciation she once had for Shen Zhinian's work ability turned into disgust after learning that she shamelessly seduced Lu Jingchuan and even refused to leave.
No matter how good Shen Zhinian's work ability is and there are a lot of people to replace her, she can never stay with Lu Jingchuan.
Even five million dollars can't buy her off, which only shows that she has big plans.
Shen Zhinian returned to the office, his eyes were blank, and he kept thinking about Mrs. Lu's words in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more desolate he felt.
It wasn't until her stomach protested with dissatisfaction that she came back to her senses, ate some bread to fill her stomach, and continued to work.
She just thought absentmindedly that in a few months she would no longer be able to hide her pregnancy and would have to leave within three months.
Otherwise... if Lu Jingchuan found out that she was pregnant behind his back, she wouldn't be able to keep the only thought she wanted to keep.
At the same time, Lin Shanyue spoke to Mrs. Lu and learned that five million could not make Shen Zhinian leave.
She felt more and more that Shen Zhinian was a greedy and ruthless character.
Five million dollars is not enough to satisfy her appetite. Is she really trying to get Lu Jingchuan and get the title of Mrs. Lu?
In the next few days, Shen Zhinian was not only forced to add a lot of work that was not her own, but Mrs. Lu also began to put pressure on her.
She couldn't refuse Mrs. Lu's request and had no choice but to comply.
On this day, she stayed up until 2:30 in the middle of the night before finally finishing her work in a hurry.
She sorted out the documents and just sat up from the chair when a wave of dizziness hit her. Qiao Man almost stumbled and fell.
