Although she felt a bit guilty, Tian Ling still accepted her own feelings. It was rare for her to genuinely accept a man, and she wanted to give it a try.
The car arrived at the Zong Shi Yan Tuan building and parked. The two of them entered the company building. Just before getting on the elevator, Tong Le reminded her, "You don’t really have to help Lan Qingqing with her work later; just pretend to do it. I called Wu Youyou before coming here, and she just wants to teach Lan Qingqing a lesson, making her bow down and apologize. You can have some snacks in the break room; those pastries are made by the company chef, who is a top-notch cook!"
They found Lan Qingqing, who looked as if she had seen a savior. Tong Le deliberately took her time, while Tian Ling kept running back and forth between the break room and the restroom, occasionally wandering around different floors. It was rare for her to come to Zong Shi Yan Tuan, so she wanted to explore every corner.
Lan Qingqing was getting frustrated. She thought she could finish her work before getting off, but seeing Tian Ling devour four large plates of pastries while only completing one-fifth of her task made her anxious. With only ten minutes left until quitting time, Lan Qingqing approached Tong Le and Tian Ling's temporary workstation. She glanced at the trash can by Tian Ling's feet, which was filled with various snack wrappers and even a takeout container from the company cafeteria with pig knuckles!
Lan Qingqing wanted to explode in anger but hesitated, knowing that these two were her close friends and were there as free labor. She didn’t want to lose her temper.
Just as she was about to speak, other female employees walked over. One of them urged Lan Qingqing, "Lan Qingqing, have you finished what Wu Youyou assigned you? There are only ten minutes left until we can leave! If you don’t finish, none of us can go home. I need to pick up my child from tutoring class soon; why don’t you plead with Wu Youyou?"
Lan Qingqing forced a smile, thinking it was unreasonable for Wu Youyou to act this way. "You all should leave when it's time! Don’t indulge her! Once it's time to clock out, just leave normally; I’ll stay here and continue working."
The employee replied awkwardly, "That’s easy for you to say, but what if Wu Youyou says we’re abandoning our posts? What if they deduct our bonuses and performance? Are you going to compensate us for that? Wu Youyou is from Dazong Zong; you wouldn’t dare provoke her. Are you asking us to take the heat for you?"
As more male and female employees approached Lan Qingqing, they began complaining one after another: "Lan Qingqing, it’s almost quitting time! You can’t hold us all back because of your personal issues with Wu Youyou! My dad had a heart attack recently; I need to be at the hospital after work—everyone is busy!"
"Exactly! I still have to cook dinner for my kids! You've been working all afternoon without even apologizing to Wu Youyou. We don’t want any trouble with her!"
"Don’t say we’re being unreasonable; if you want to stay late alone for four or five hours, that’s fine. But if all of us have to stay late for four or five hours together, that’s a completely different story!"
Lan Qingqing explained, "I know! I understand! Yes, it was Wu Youyou who did something wrong! You all saw it; she’s deliberately targeting me! I brought my friends over just so everyone could leave on time, but I never expected Wu Youyou would make things so difficult!"
Unable to hold back any longer, Lan Qingqing added, "Besides, why should I apologize to Wu Youyou? What did I do wrong?"
Meanwhile, Tong Le and Tian Ling exchanged glances filled with schadenfreude as they tried hard not to laugh.
Tong Le noticed that Tian Ling still had chili powder on the corner of her mouth and whispered, "Did you sneak some chicken feet again?"
Tian Ling grinned widely. "The food here is really good!"
