Chapter 9. With that kind of weakling appearance, how dare he cause me trouble?
"People with heart conditions see everything as dirty, don't you think?"
Lu Yining shook her hands to dry them before turning around and giving the two women, who were spewing venomous words, a forced smile.
The two women who had started gossiping realized things were getting out of hand and quickly and quietly slipped away.
The remaining two surrounded Lu Yining from both sides, blocking her path.
"Who do you think you are? A vixen like you dares to lecture me? You've got some nerve. You think you're safe just because you've caught President Lu's eye? Let me tell you, President Lu's favorite person is only Secretary Fang! Believe me, even if I beat you to death today, President Lu won't shed a single tear for you!"
Lu Yining: "Then you're in trouble..."
"why?"
"Because now is my hunting season." With that, Lu Yining swept a high kick across the room, knocking the two men to the ground.
She's trained.
Clapping her hands, Lu Yining didn't even glance at the two of them, and walked out of the bathroom with her head held high. Just as she was about to return to the president's office, she saw Guan Junhao come out at some point and was walking towards her.
"Little sister, have you found the way to the toilet?"
"Found it, and I even swatted two pests for you while I was at it."
"That weakling dares to cause me trouble? He's really overestimating himself."
Although Guan Junhao couldn't hear Lu Yining's thoughts, he was extremely perceptive and immediately understood the implied meaning in her words. His expression darkened: "Did someone bully you?"
“Yeah.” Lu Yining didn’t intend to hide it. When Guan Junhao asked, Lu Yining nodded and replied, “You have a sharp tongue. You’re not clean at all.”
"His heart is dirty too..."
"I'm not saying this to be mean, but how come you let just any Tom, Dick, or Harry in here? They have absolutely no manners. I don't know how they even got the job in the first place..."
"How did they bully you? Tell me, and I'll stand up for you!" Guan Junhao said angrily.
Putting aside the fact that Lu Yining is Lu Yunchen's sister, he already quite liked Lu Yining herself. After only half a day of getting to know her, he found her to be very sincere and frank, and he enjoyed dealing with that kind of person.
She's being bullied right now, and he'll definitely stand up for her.
"It's alright, it's alright." Lu Yining waved her hand: "I've already disciplined them."
"But... you should be more careful when hiring in the future. It's one thing for them to bully me in the bathroom now, but if one day they start bullying outsiders, or if someone from another company comes to discuss cooperation and sees it, then it will be the company's reputation that suffers."
"You can decide how to handle it."
Guan Junhao twitched his lips. "Little sister, if you want to fire them or teach them a lesson, just say so. There's really no need to go through all this trouble."
After all, the entire company belongs to the Lu family.
You are a princess of the Lu family. If you want to fire someone, it's a simple matter. At worst, you can just give some compensation. Anyway, the Lu family is not short of money.
Furthermore, since the fault lies with them and you, sister, are not at fault, it makes dealing with this matter much easier.
"Ning Ning."
"Big brother? What brings you here?"
Lu Yining looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lu Yunchen walking towards her. Lu Yunchen, who always prided himself on being calm and composed, was now running without regard for his image, with a look of tension on his face.
"Ningning, are you hurt anywhere? Who bullied you? Tell your big brother, and he'll back you up."
He was discussing a collaboration with his business partner when he suddenly heard Ningning's inner thoughts—things like "bullying" and "causing trouble." He immediately interrupted the conversation and ran out, afraid that if he waited even a moment longer, Ningning would be harmed.
"Big brother, how did you know someone was going to bully me?"
Oops, I let it slip...
Lu Yunchen said calmly, "Someone left the meeting room midway through and happened to hear about this. He told me about it when he went back to the meeting room."
Are there any scrapes or bruises? Should we go to the hospital?
After saying that, Lu Yunchen nervously circled around Lu Yining and checked her hands. Only after finding no injuries did he feel relieved.
"It's okay, it's okay. Is your sister the kind of person who would just stand there and let others hit and bully her? Don't worry, they didn't take advantage of me at all."
"Ningning, can you still recognize the people who bullied you?"
“Of course,” Lu Yining said confidently. “As long as they stand in front of me, I will definitely recognize them.”
"And they have bad breath! When they talk, the smell is really pungent...it stinks..."
"I don't like it...I don't like it..."
As she spoke, Lu Yining waved her hands frantically, her whole body radiating resistance.
That's really... quite tough, huh...
"Ah Hao, go check the company's surveillance footage."
Guan Junhao: "Alright, that's exactly what I was thinking."
ten minutes later……
“It’s them!” Lu Yining pointed at the two women who came out of the bathroom and blinked.
Lu Yunchen had no recollection of either of the two women, but for Guan Junhao, a gossip enthusiast, there wasn't a single person in the company he couldn't name.
At this moment, he only needed to glance at the two people's faces to know their names.
"Liu Hualei, Zhang Renlan."
"Liu Hualei is the team leader in the operations department, and Zhang Renlan is a member of the planning department. Both of them come from families with some money, and also..."
Guan Junhao paused for a moment, then glanced at Lu Yunchen. Only after receiving a look from Lu Yunchen that said "keep going" did Guan Junhao continue speaking.
"And...the two of them have a pretty good relationship with Fang Rou..."
Oh, no wonder, they're all in cahoots...
Lu Yunchen tapped the table a few times with his fingers: "Fire them both."
Perhaps because his words were too decisive, Guan Junhao was stunned for a moment when he first heard them.
However, he quickly realized that, indeed, no matter how good the relationship between those two and Fang Rou was, it was an undeniable fact that they had teamed up to bully Lu Yunchen's sister.
My sister, who has been missing for many years, has now been found. I naturally cherish her so much that I would never allow her to be bullied by outsiders.
"I'll go and explain right now."
Lu Yining glanced at the departing figure, then at Lu Yunchen, who remained seated and showed no sign of leaving.
"Brother, aren't you going to the conference room to discuss the cooperation?"
[Leaving our partners waiting in the meeting room...isn't that a bit inappropriate? Besides, my sister-in-law is there too! Making her wait so long is really not good.]
