Chen Wei’s intention was to let Ye Yuning know that she wasn’t the only one who had paid a price for yesterday’s incident. However, Ye Yuning seemed to miss the point entirely! Upon hearing that Lai Shuo had gone to the east, her previously annoyed expression instantly brightened. "Lai Shuo went to the east?" "Yes," Chen Wei nodded firmly. He went to the east... so Xiao Linye was completely fed up with my and Lai Shuo’s antics? And then, in a fit of anger, he sent Lai Shuo away and terminated my contract too? Even though I’ve never met him, I think I thoroughly understand this Xiao Linye’s temperament now. Anyone who displeases him makes *everyone* miserable. Given that, isn’t going to work at Xiao Corporation just asking for suffering? However, hearing that Lai Shuo had left, she felt somewhat relieved; Lai Shuo knew her too well. As for other people... even though I’ve been wandering around Xiao Corporation these past few days, I only run into a handful of people when coming and going from work. It shouldn’t cause any major disaster. Hearing that Lai Shuo had left made Ye Yuning quite relieved. She slammed the table, saying excitedly, "Good riddance! That guy should have been kicked out long ago! How could someone with such poor character be Xiao Linye’s assistant? See? I always said that Xiao Linye, as the successor of Xiao Corporation, must be wise and valiant!" Chen Wei looked at Ye Yuning blankly. When did she start thinking Xiao Linye was wise and valiant? Didn’t she always curse him to high heaven before, practically wanting to storm into Xiao Corporation and tear him limb from limb? I completely don’t understand what this sudden change in the boss means! Yet Ye Yuning, elated by Lai Shuo’s exile, felt like setting off fireworks. "How long will he be gone?" "At least six months, but it’ll really depend on his performance!" Six months. Six months is good! Hearing that Lai Shuo had been exiled for at least six months, Ye Yuning was inwardly overjoyed. "Hmph, I knew it! With his kind of emotional intelligence, he was bound to get his comeuppance sooner or later!" Chen Wei was speechless, her expression even more bewildered. Lai Shuo really is bad and incredibly annoying, but to say he ’got his comeuppance’... isn’t that a bit too harsh? Before Chen Wei could say anything, Ye Yuning instructed, "Go get Ma Di and Lei An to the conference room." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 "Okay," Chen Wei nodded. Ye Yuning then said, "Go prepare a set of sun-protective clothing for me right away. You know, the kind that’s been really popular online lately, right?" "Yes, I know, but the weather is about to get cold. You probably won’t need it, will you?" Besides, when Ye Yuning used to drive, she didn’t need it either. Even though she was cycling now, it still didn’t seem very practical; winters in Upper City are very cold. Ye Yuning said, "Never mind that. Just go prepare it. Also, buy some face masks for me." Chen Wei’s mouth twitched. What on earth is she planning? Sun-protective clothing and now face masks? I’ve never noticed her being so careful about her face before! But speaking of Ye Yuning’s face, Chen Wei was genuinely envious; Ye Yuning usually wore very little makeup. And Chen Wei had been to Ye Yuning’s home, Xiangti. The skincare products Ye Yuning used there weren’t even big-name brands. Just the kind you casually slather on! Yet her skin was so good, it was something they couldn’t achieve even by diligently using expensive brands. Someone who was never that concerned about her appearance now wants sun-protective clothing and face masks? Is she planning to become some kind of secret agent or something? "Okay!" Chen Wei nodded numbly. I can’t figure out what the boss is up to, but whatever she says, goes. After Chen Wei left, Ye Yuning turned and went to the conference room, where Ma Di and Lei An were already waiting. As shareholders in the studio, their dedication to their work was, of course, unquestionable. Xiao Linye was so domineering; she absolutely had to go to Xiao Corporation tomorrow. Even though what Xiao Corporation has done to the studio lately is infuriating... right now, I have no choice. My husband is too domineering! I have to go! Lei An and Ma Di also knew that Xiao Corporation wanted to terminate the contract. Ma Di said angrily, "This Xiao Corporation is truly outrageous!" Previously, the design proposal for Nanjia Peak was originally supposed to be handled by Lei An, but they insisted the boss do it personally. Fine, she did it personally, but then she even had to go to Xiao Corporation to work on it under their watch! The boss had already accommodated them so much, and now they were trying to terminate the contract? How could they be so troublesome! Ma Di and Lei An were both furious. Lei An looked at Ye Yuning. "So, how do you plan to handle Xiao Corporation? Shouldn’t we issue a public statement to clarify things? Don’t let it look like it’s our fault!" Her tone was filled with indignation. A partner absolutely must be exposed. They were clearly the ones being unreasonable, and now they’re the ones terminating the contract? Aren’t they just deliberately stirring up trouble? Ye Yuning said, "If we respond to such irrational people, wouldn’t that just make us look irrational too?" Ma Di and Lei An were speechless. What does she mean? Are we just going to let it slide? This isn’t like the boss’s style at all! If this were before, wouldn’t she have raised hell and made sure they paid the price? Ma Di looked at Ye Yuning. "But if we don’t respond, this incident will affect us." "It’s just Xiao Corporation. What significant impact can they have? Alright, I have this under control. I’ll handle it!" She didn’t say how she would handle it, but Ma Di and Lei An clearly sensed a change in her. After all, in the past, she would have definitely resolved something overnight.
