Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 139: Confrontation and Accusations at Gathering
Whatโs up with Qiao Na today? Usually, itโs just her and Lan Shan against each other, but now sheโs spouting nonsense after a few drinks.
Yu Tian, who has a decent relationship with her, stood up, intending to pull her away. ๐ง๐๐๐๐คโฏ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฃโฏ๐ญ.๐คโด๐ฎ
"Donโt touch me," Qiao Na shoved Yu Tian away.
Yu Tian nearly lost her balance and almost fell, but luckily someone caught her just in time to prevent her from hitting the ground.
After she steadied herself, she glanced at Qiao Na and scoffed inwardly.
If you insist on running into the gunfire, donโt blame me for not helping you later.
At this moment, how could Qiao Na know what she was thinking? With all that alcohol, her mind was already a mess.
Lan Shan looked at Qiao Na, knowing she was drunk. So she spoke up, "What did you mean earlier? Make it clear."
Without thinking, Qiao Na said, "Lan Shan, how much did Ye Xinluo pay you? To make you work so hard for her?"
"And Ye Xinluo entered the company because you recommended her, right? Seems she gave you quite some benefits."
The more she listened, the fiercer her brow furrowed. She figured it out; Qiao Na was deliberately causing trouble.
So, she replied, "Is this important?" Her tone was indifferent, hiding any emotion.
"Of course, Iโm curious how she managed to become the CEOโs assistant as soon as she joined the company?"
"Youโre just being a sour grape since you canโt have it!" Lan Shan sneered, having already known that people in the company were displeased with Xinluo because of this; hence, she wasnโt surprised.
"Hah, do you think thatโs possible? I just think itโs a pityโa young person like her would do dirty things for a position."
"I canโt compare."
Those present gasped; Qiao Na was usually arrogant in the company. Some were watching coldly, and others were whispering, but no one spoke up for her.
Internally, they gave her a thumbs up for daring to say anything.
They had discussed this topic privately but never dared to voice it, partly out of deference to Lan Shan.
And partly out of concern that if their assumptions were true and Ye Xinluo had backing, itโd be thankless to interfere.
Lan Shan didnโt get angry but laughed instead, saying, "Only someone with such a filthy mind would say things like this. Or is it that youโre quite skilled in such matters?"
Pfft...
Someone snickered, making Qiao Na feel utterly humiliated, leading her to say even harsher words, "Donโt slander people. Ye Xinluo might have done something shady. Since you hang out with her frequently, for all we know, you two might be in cahoots."
Lan Shan replied airily, "Heh, donโt compare me to someone like you. Who doesnโt know how many people youโve slept with just for a secretary position..."
"What did you say?" Qiao Na was furious and tried to grab her, but Lan Shan had anticipated her move and easily dodged her.
Qiao Na missed, unexpectedly tripping and fell flat on the ground, face down.
Laughter erupted around them as Lan Shan stood by, watching coldly.
Bullying her is one thing, but bullying Xinluo is unforgivable. Besides, she hadnโt said much, and yet Qiao Na reacted so strongly. It seemed she inadvertently spoke the truth.
Her disdain for Qiao Na grew even more. Standing there, she felt the entire room made her uncomfortable.
So she decided to grab her bag and leave.
They hadnโt wanted to attend this gathering today; if it hadnโt been difficult to refuse, they wouldnโt have come at all.
