Chapter 13

wned and turned to walk towards the entrance.Shen Yian took out his sneakers from the cabinet, and when he was about to put them on, Song Lin's eyebrows almost knitted together into a knot."Don't you...Just like that, Shen Yian smiled and skillfully dodged Li Manager's touch.

Fortunately, after the dishes were served, it created some distance between them.

Shen Yian tried to find a breakthrough: "Manager Li, I..."

Manager Li took a bite of the dish and interrupted, "This dish is really good, Miss Shen, you should try it."

"Alright, thank you." Shen Yian helplessly took a bite of his food and continued, "Manager Li, actually..."

"Not bad either," Mr. Li continued eating, completely ignoring Shen Yian.

When Shen realized what Manager Li meant, he understood that the manager didn't want to talk about work at all. The dinner was just a way to make things difficult for her.

Her face stiffened slightly, but she recovered quickly.

She took a sip of juice: "Manager Li, if you like it, I'll ask the waiter to bring you some more."

It is said that Manager Li glanced at Shen Yian, his eyes hesitating for a moment.

Shen Yian didn't say much anymore, instead she smiled and helped Li Manager serve food, even telling him the process of each dish, as if her purpose for this visit was simply to have dinner with Li Manager.

Her smiling face seemed to land right in the corner table where Song Rin was sitting.

When Song Lin received the text message from Shen Yian, he ignored it.

But as he was about to leave, he became curious about how Shen Yian planned to deal with Manager Li. After all, Manager Li was known for his strange tactics.

So he came.

I didn't expect to see Shen Yian smiling and serving dishes for Manager Li as soon as I walked in. This perfectly fits her image of being materialistic and flattering.

But he felt a strange mix of emotions inside. Did she forget that she was already married

To get through back doors, they flatter that other man so openly.

The methods are really vulgar.

Song Lin watched the two of them and couldn't help but clench his white porcelain cup, making a chuckle.

Xu Da, standing beside him, followed his gaze and whispered, “This woman is really bold. She's so eager to a stranger like this. Looks like Manager Li is in for a treat today.”

With a thud, Song Lin's teacup fell silently. Xu Da was startled and his heart skipped a beat.

"Boss, is there a problem with the tea"

"It's awful. Let's go."

Song Lin got up and left, his long eyelashes concealing unknown emotions as he lowered his gaze.

Xu Da felt baffled. Did he say something wrong

Manager Li, someone just brought you some food. How could your meal not be delicious

At another table, Shen Yian and Manager Li had also finished dinner. She thought that now Manager Li wouldn't find any other excuse to interrupt her.

She smiled and said, "Manager Li, can we now discuss the terms of our cooperation"

Manager Li stared at Shen Yian's plain face. Although she had no delicate makeup, her skin was exceptionally fair and rosy, with an almost imperceptible sense of fragility. However, her tone was not weak at all.

Be resolutely firm.

She is completely different from Wang Ruqi, she is so calm.

He narrowed his eyes and chuckled softly: "No rush. I'll have a pot of tea to settle my palate, drink it slowly, and chat leisurely."

Shen Yi'an maintained a smile, nodding calmly and helplessly.

After the tea arrived, Shen Yian politely stood up to pour it. Unexpectedly, Li Manager also reached out and grasped the teapot handle in her hand.

Shen Yian wanted to pull her hand away, but Li Manager gripped it tighter and even smiled at her.

Miss Shen, your hands are so cold. Is the air conditioning here too cold We should sit closer then, that way we can hear each other clearly while talking about work, right

After he finished speaking, Manager Li leaned his whole body against Shen Yian.

Even Shen Yian, who wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed, understood Li Manager's meaning. He was implying that if she wanted to talk about work, there would be a price to pay.

"Manager Li, you misunderstood. Please let go," Shen Yian gritted his teeth to hold back the urge to hit someone.

Mr. Li is a key figure in this cooperation; it's important not to offend her, but she also shouldn't have to sacrifice herself for work.

Unexpectedly, Manager Li not only didn't let go, but even rubbed Shen Yian's hand back with his hand.

"Don't try to fool me, you came to find me alone for this very reason, didn't you You and Wang Ruqi are the same kind of person, but I prefer your style now."

"Let go!" Shen Yian warned angrily.

"Well, you've got quite a temper. I like that." Manager Li leaned in closer to Shen Yian.

Shen Yian was taken aback, and quickly took the steaming teapot with his other hand, scalding Li's manager's hand.

"Oh!"

Mr. Li let out a low cry, shaking his hand in pain, which drew the attention of those around him. He didn't dare to lash out, but could only grit his teeth and stare at Shen Yian.

Shen Yian tightened his grip on the teapot and said, "Manager Li, please be respectful. I do want to cooperate with your company, but that doesn't mean I'll sell myself out. If you continue this behavior, I'll call the police. Even large companies can't tolerate workplace sexual harassment."

Manager Li was stunned for a moment, the next second his eyes were wide with fury: "You dare threaten me Just you"

"I wouldn't. But when people are pushed to their limits, they can do anything." Shen Yian met his gaze unflinchingly.

Mr. Li's eyes widened, then he smiled lightly: "I understand, you're afraid your husband will find out, right Only I know about this, your husband won't find out, so this cooperation...will be easier to discuss. Otherwise, I can only leave now, don't say I'm bullying you later."

Shen Yian clenched his fist and immediately stood up.

"Manager Li, I'm sorry, I couldn't betray my husband. It seems this tea will have to be enjoyed by you alone."

Saying that, she deliberately pressed the teapot in her hand hard onto his back, then walked away without looking back.

Behind me, Manager Li let out a wail, still muttering curses.

Shen Yi'an ignored him and quickly walked out of the restaurant.

She hated this dirty tactic the most. She refused to believe she couldn't defeat Wang Ruoqi!

Shen Yian gritted his teeth and walked towards the subway station. Who knew that just as he took a step, he was forcefully bumped by the person behind him.

She stumbled and almost fell, but luckily she managed to steady herself by holding onto a pillar. She turned around, ready to scold the person, but when she saw who it was, she found out it was Mr. Li.

At this moment, Manager Li was a completely different person from his previous sleazy demeanor. He was sweating profusely, his face contorted in worry.

"What Wasn't the due date next month Why is she suddenly giving birth"

"Fell Heavy bleeding!"

"Doctor, save my wife! Please save my wife first! Don't let the child be fine!"

"I'm coming right away! I'm coming..."

Manager Li's body shook more and more as he spoke, his phone also slipping from his trembling hands and landing on the ground.

Hearing this, Shen Yian immediately stepped forward to help Manager Li.

"Mr. Li, are you alright"

"I, I... take me to the Women's and Children's Hospital, I, I can't drive, my legs are weak." Li Manager said feebly.

Shen Yian was taken aback. If she hadn't recognized Manager Li's face, she would have thought she had just walked through a wall.

Mr. Li in front of me was so scared that he was paralyzed because his wife had a premature birth. It shows that he must, absolutely must, love his wife very much.

Why were you like that to her just now

Shen Yian also didn't have time to think deeply. She had just heard Manager Li say that the woman giving birth was having a major hemorrhage, which must be very serious.

She supported Mr. Li and said, "Where are the car keys"

Mr. Li leaned against Shen Yian, his hand trembling as he pointed to his pocket.

Shen Yian reached out and pressed around, seeing the car lights flicker. He hurriedly helped Manager Li up.

At that moment, a Maybach drove past them.

In the car, Xu Da exclaimed: "Manager Li! This woman is too amazing She's already hugging Manager Li and in the same car so quickly! Isn't Manager Li a henpecked husband What kind of magic did this woman use"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Da felt a chill run down his spine. Through the rearview mirror, he saw Song Lin's eyes staring coldly at the two people in the car window.

"Boss, should I remind Manager Li" you have a problem"Shen Yian shook his head. "No, no, but most of my colleagues are women, and they might speak a little...indirectly."Although Song Lin going to the departmental dinner can save Shen...
