She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

After hearing my answer, Zhou Hanzhi raised his eyebrows slightly but did not give a positive response.

But based on what I know about him, this is already my guess.

Also, as for the humiliating dog-licking plan that Wu Ling and I made, it was okay to deceive Lin Xixi by pretending that the situation was critical, but it was not very possible to deceive Zhou Hanzhi.

In fact, when I first implemented this plan, I never thought that I could really blind Zhou Hanzhi. Although he has a bad temper, his IQ is still online.

At that time, the relationship between us and Rongyu had reached a stage of incompatibility. I thought that if Zhou Hanzhi was unwilling to give up the "Monogatari" project, we would have to take the initiative to give him a step forward, which was reasonable and without losing any share.

I also know that part of the 50 million yuan I received was calculated. After all, Zhou Hanzhi himself does not want us to cooperate with Hongtu. The reason why he can "cheat" successfully is nothing more than the right time, the right place and the right people.

The only thing I didn't expect was that Zhou Hanzhi would agree to our three conditions. I thought he had other plans and was secretly spying on his whereabouts, but it turned out that there was no such thing.

So I was lucky enough to think that I was the winner in that duel.

But now it seems that my suspicion at the time was not unreasonable. Zhou Hanzhi saw through our little thoughts after all.

Just now, when Shen Hualan swore to him about the "50 million deceived", Zhou Hanzhi was so calm and composed, which shows that he was not deceived by us from beginning to end.

I clenched my palms, glanced at the man opposite me, and sat back in my seat.

Face to face, Zhou Hanzhi looked at me for a second and then said helplessly: "The general meeting of shareholders is coming soon, why are you not careful? Why do you cause such trouble?"

His tone was calm and he didn't seem to want to argue with us.

I explained honestly: "Manager Lin is not feeling well. Mr. Wu is afraid of delaying Mr. Zhou's plan, so he sent me to persuade her."

"Is that what you're trying to do?"

I said sarcastically: "Next time, pay attention to your methods."

Probably because I had a decent attitude, Zhou Hanzhi did not pursue the matter further. After a while, he asked, "I heard that someone is gossiping in your company?"

I guessed that Zhou Hanzhi was talking about the gossip about Chen Shuyao and others, and said seriously: "Mr. Wu has deducted their bonus for this month."

The man raised his eyelids and looked straight at me with a pair of black eyes. When we looked at each other, I explained: "Gossip is human nature, and they will remember it."

Zhou Hanzhi looked away, glanced out the window, and said casually: "What kind of gossip is this?"

"Didn't Manager Lin ask Mr. Zhou?"

After I said the words, I felt a little abrupt. After swallowing nervously, I heard Zhou Han ask again: "Is this question difficult for Manager Meng to answer?"

Ruifeng's slender eyes looked over, and I saw a trace of consideration in the man's eyes.

"It's nothing more than some groundless rumors, so don't mention it."

A cold scoff was pressed into his ears, and a flash of contempt flashed in the man's eyes: "Isn't Manager Meng worried about affecting my reputation this time?"

I laughed dryly and said: "Those who are clean will be clean themselves."

Although Zhou Hanzhi was not as cold-faced as before, for some reason, in this seemingly calm conversation, I felt like I was suffocating.

I coughed lightly and asked, "Does Mr. Zhou have any other instructions?"

Zhou Hanshang looked me up and down, and before he could speak, I declared: "I have a meeting before I get off work. Besides, I've already bought the order."

The 50 million incident ended unexpectedly and reasonably, but I just don't know if Lin Xixi can accept this result.

After all, she had put a lot of thought into this afternoon's scene.

All night, I was immersed in work. The dark night fell quietly like a curtain, and then gently opened overnight to welcome the arrival of a new day.

As I expected, Lin Xixi came to the company with a happy face, carrying a familiar-looking Chanel 2.5 on her shoulders, and carrying a large dessert box in her hand.

Xiao Zheng didn't know about the department gossip, so he walked up to Lin Xixi with joy, stared at Lin Xixi and said: "Wow, it's a collector's item. I heard that the price at the counter has increased again. Manager Lin is so arrogant!"

Lin Xixi shook the shoulder strap, with a mischievous light in her eyes. She smiled and joked: "How can I afford it with my salary?"

Xiao Zheng looked confused: "Huh? Is it a gift from President Zhou Da?"

Lin Xixi shook her head in front of everyone, with a shy blush on her face, and whispered: "I went shopping with Mrs. Zhou yesterday, and she gave it to me as a gift. I wanted to refuse, but she was not happy yet. .”

Xiao Zheng suddenly realized: "Wow, it turned out to be a gift from the mother-in-law-to-be. Manager Lin, are you going to get the wedding candy from you and President Zhou Da soon?"

"Xiao Zheng, are you free?" Wang Jia's voice suddenly interrupted, "If you are not busy, take these documents to copy first."

Xiao Zheng shrank his head and was about to leave when he was stopped by Lin Xixi: "We don't have any candy for the moment, but everyone has a share of dessert."

Wu Ling recalled the scene of Lin Xixi giving out desserts to everyone, and said: "It's just an Internet celebrity store, and the aspartame exceeds the standard. I don't know what they are after."

I didn’t take it seriously, I just thought about that bag and couldn’t help but smile.

If I remember correctly, it was the one that Shen Hualan tried to give to me not long ago but was rejected by me.

"She has no other purpose in doing this. She just wants to say that the Zhou family has identified her as their daughter-in-law, ha," Wu Ling sneered, "I want to compete with you."

I was unmoved: "As long as it doesn't delay the test of "Monogatari"."

"But having said that," Wu Ling changed the topic and asked doubtfully, "Tell me, why is Lin Xixi so suspicious lately?"

I took a sip of coffee, shook my head and said, "I don't know."

"Logically speaking, with how much President Zhou loves her, she shouldn't be worried about gains and losses, unless..." Wu Ling glanced at me, raised an eyebrow and said, "Is this chance meeting on the beach really just a coincidence?"

I immediately understood the implication of Wu Ling's words and laughed at myself: "What else?"

"Beautiful," Wu Ling clapped his hands, "A good horse doesn't want to turn around. There are so many outstanding men, why find one who can beat you."

"Okay, "Monogatari" is about to be tested, so please pay more attention."

Just as Wu Ling was about to respond, the cell phone on the table rang. It was the agent's call.

"Really? Is there a buyer interested in it?" Wu Ling raised his tone excitedly and said cheerfully: "As long as the buyer can make a one-time payment, I guarantee that not even a blade of grass in the villa will be taken away."

The other end of the phone didn't know what to say. Wu Ling took out a pen and paper and said, "It's three o'clock this afternoon. Wait, what's the name of the buyer?"

The woman who was smiling just now changed her face in a second, showing her teeth and claws: "Is this Gu Wantong?"
