Chapter 13 She's a Vixen

However, Jian Ran was already on guard, and when Jian Rou swung at her, Jian Ran dodged to the side, causing Jian Rou to miss and nearly topple over due to imbalance.

"Mrs. Future CEO, you should be careful, this is the lobby after all. It wouldn't be good to be seen by everyone," Jian Ran said with a smile.

"Miss Jian, please listen to me explain, actually, Sister Ran is..." Tang Yuanyuan said anxiously at the side, feeling helpless as the situation quickly spiraled out of control.

"Get lost!" Jian Rou furiously pushed Tang Yuanyuan away.

It was all her fault for bringing that bitch Jian Ran here.

Tang Yuanyuan, caught off balance, was about to fall, but fortunately, Jian Ran quickly reached out and steadied her.

"Jian Rou, have you lost your mind?" Jian Ran looked at her as if she was a rabid dog and couldn't help but scold.

"Jian Ran, you'd better leave within three seconds, or I'll have security throw you out," Jian Rou said angrily and fearfully.

"Fine, call them. If I leave, I'm never setting foot in here again," Jian Ran replied coldly.

Hearing this, Tang Yuanyuan panicked and quickly said, "Sister Ran, let's go upstairs!"

If Sister Ran left in anger, she would be in a great deal of trouble as well.

What was wrong with Jian Rou? She always appeared gentle and demure on screen; why was she so overbearing in reality? It's just unreasonable!

"Are you insane? Why should she go upstairs? She's an outsider," Jian Rou roared at Tang Yuanyuan, her eyes bulging as if they were about to pop out.

Right now, she felt a suffocating frustration in her chest she couldn't relieve.

It was infuriating; Tingjue was just upstairs, and she couldn't take any risks.

"Miss Jian, Sister Ran is our Chief Designer in the design department, she just came in to report today, so please don't stop her," Tang Yuanyuan said with all seriousness, not playing favorites.

She didn't care who the other person was. The worst that could happen was getting fired.

"What? She's a designer? Don't make me laugh. How capable is Jian Ran, do you think I don't know? Don't let her deceive you and tarnish Haoting Group's reputation," Jian Rou sneered mockingly.

Jian Ran initially wanted to let things go and was about to turn around and leave, but out of the corner of her eye, she saw a figure approaching. It looked like Assistant Cheng.

He had contacted her before.

Therefore, Jian Ran put on a bullied look, "So this is how Haoting Group treats people? I really didn't think it through when I chose to come here. This is too much bullying!"

She appeared as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Don't play the victim; don't even think about staying in Haoting, I will make sure Tingjue knows your true face!" Jian Rou said in a rage.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Was this bitch here to seduce Tingjue? What other explanation could there be for such a coincidence? In all of Jiangcheng City, why did she have to choose Haoting Group?

Seeing Jian Ran not fighting back, Jian Rou became even more enraged. Suddenly, she lunged forward and grabbed Jian Ran's hair, "Bitch, are you doing this on purpose? Trying to seduce Tingjue? Ruining my happiness? You vixen..."

"What's going on? Miss Jian, let go of Designer Jian right now," Cheng Jun, who had just stepped out of the elevator, saw the shocking scene and rushed over to intervene.

Jian Rou quickly released her grip upon seeing Cheng Jun.

This man was Tingjue's right-hand man; if he said anything negative about her to Tingjue, that would be terrible.

"Assistant Cheng, I... I was just..." she stammered nervously.

Cheng Jun frowned slightly, but before he could say anything, Jian Ran spoke up, "Assistant Cheng, today has really been an eye-opener. Who would have thought that on my first day at Haoting Group, I would encounter such treatment, isn't this going too far?"

Jian Ran's tone was calm, but it was clear she was very angry.

Cheng Jun was also taken aback, completely unaware of what had happened, but no matter what, hitting someone was not acceptable.

"Humph, Assistant Cheng, hurry up and kick this seductress out, what does she know about design? She's nothing but a fraudster," Jian Rou said angrily. She had never heard that this wretch knew anything about design before.

"Miss Jian, you're misunderstanding, Designer Jian was hired from abroad by our company, please trust President Gu's judgment," Cheng Jun had no other choice but to invoke Gu Tingjue's name, or else who knew when this would end?

Ah, truly, women are such troublesome creatures!

Especially this Miss Jian, she's far from simple. He had been by President Gu's side for several years now, and he saw everything crystal clear!

When Jian Rou heard that it was Gu Tingjue who hired her, she suddenly became discouraged and stood there, stunned.

But inside, she was gnashing her teeth in anger.

It must be this wretched woman scheming to get close to Tingjue, just you wait, I will make her pay and regret coming back to this country.

"Forget it, Assistant Cheng, you might as well hire someone more capable. The way your company treats new employees is really eye-opening, I've seen it all now, but forgive me for not being able to agree," Jian Ran said, standing there with a cold expression.

"Designer Jian, I'm sorry, I apologize, this is all our fault," Cheng Jun said nervously.

If she really left Haoting because of this incident, President Gu would definitely be furious.

His angry expression was terrifying, and Cheng Jun did not want to witness that a second time.

"Assistant Cheng, this isn't your fault, you don't need to apologize..." Jian Ran said, and then she glanced at Jian Rou.

The meaning was clear enough, whoever did wrong should apologize!

Jian Rou glared with wide eyes, this wretched person couldn't be asking her to apologize, could she?

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jun immediately showed a troubled expression, asking Miss Jian to apologize, that was probably harder than ascending to heaven, right?

He was really at his wits' end!

But there was no better solution, he could only give it a try, so he mustered the courage to say to Jian Rou, "Miss Jian, would you please, if President Gu learned about this..."

Cheng Jun believed she was a smart person, no need for him to continue, she knew the consequences.

Sure enough, once Jian Rou heard the name Gu Tingjue, her entire complexion changed.

She felt so unwilling, but considering their relationship was a bit tense at the moment, if Tingjue got angry again, could it be that...

She didn't dare to think any further.

Jian Rou gently bit her lower lip and said unwillingly, "Sorry!"

The voice was as quiet as a mosquito's.

"Miss Jian, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly!" Jian Ran pretended not to have heard clearly.

"Jian Ran, don't push your luck. Are you deaf or is it deliberate?" The anger that Jian Rou had been suppressing flared up again.

"Oh, so this is how Miss Jian apologizes. If there's no sincerity, then forget it, I won't make things difficult. After all, I have no backer, and it's only right for the future wife of the president to look down on me," Jian Ran deliberately belittled herself, making Jian Rou's face turn from red to white.

"I'm sorry!" Jian Rou said loudly, and then stormed off angrily.

She couldn't wait to leave this place for a second because she didn't want to see Jian Ran's smug smile.

It was infuriating, hmph!

She definitely wouldn't let this go, just wait and see!
