Tong Le turned to Wu Youyou and asked why she was thinking about the amusement park all of a sudden. Wu Youyou's eyes brightened slightly as she recalled that it was a place her sister and brother-in-law often took her when she was younger. They would always bring her there to play, and it held many fond memories for her.
Tong Le guessed that unless it was a special memory, Wu Youyou wouldn't come here to bask in the sun. After pondering for a moment, Wu Youyou spoke up, "Tong Le, am I really too bad and too willful? I've thought about it a lot. My brother-in-law has always unconditionally tolerated me, yet I feel like I haven't done anything to make him happy."
At that moment, Wen, who was driving, chuckled. Although her laughter seemed harmless, Wu Youyou felt it was directed at her. "Are you laughing at me? What do you mean by that?" Wu Youyou shot back.
Wen, not in the mood to coddle a child, warned her, "Keep your tone normal, or I'll drive this car straight into the ditch."
Wu Youyou knew better than to provoke Wen further and fell silent. When it came to toughness, she knew she couldn't compete with Wen. She turned to Tong Le and whispered her grievances, "Tong Le, how can someone like her pretend to be my brother-in-law's girlfriend? She doesn't even act like a decent person!"
Tong Le comforted her, "The fact that you can consider Zong Jin's feelings is already progress. We all have our own personalities; as long as we don't hurt those around us, there's no such thing as being 'bad.' Actually, before I came to find you, Zong Jin had already issued an order for Lan Qingqing to resign from the company and even offered ten times the compensation."
Wu Youyou perked up at this news. "Lan Qingqing is out?"
Tong Le shook her head.
Wen chimed in while driving, "Not only is she not out, but she's also going to stay at the company as the matriarch."
Wu Youyou exclaimed loudly, "On what grounds! Did my brother-in-law agree to let her stay?"
Tong Le explained, "It's because Lan Qingqing is pregnant. The company can't dismiss an employee who is pregnant; otherwise, it would create negative public opinion."
Wu Youyou was taken aback. She had only been away from the company for half a day, and such a huge event had already occurred! Not only had she not dealt with Lan Qingqing herself, but even Zong Jin had been outmaneuvered by her!
Clenching her fists and gritting her teeth, Wu Youyou declared fiercely, "I'll kick her so hard she'll miscarry!"
The three of them gathered at Zong Shi Yan Tuan. When Zong Jin learned that Wu Youyou was there, he hurried to the office lobby but only found Tong Le and Wen.
Wen followed closely behind Tong Le. Zong Jin was slightly surprised to see Wen and greeted her politely; she responded with a smile.
Zong Jin then turned to Tong Le and asked, "Where's Wu Youyou?"
Tong Le pointed upstairs. "She went up to get something; I don't know why she suddenly ran off."
As Tong Le glanced into the office lobby, she spotted Lan Qingqing sitting at her workstation as if nothing had happened, completely unaffected by the situation.
Wen Mo opened her mouth, feeling that Lan Qingqing was truly thick-skinned. She had managed to keep her job by threatening the boss and didn’t even blush.
At that moment, Wu Youyou burst out of the elevator, holding a large megaphone she had somehow acquired. Striding past Zong Jin and Tong Le, she positioned herself in the center of the Office Lobby and began to proclaim loudly, "Lan Qingqing! You are abusing your position and spreading rumors in the office! You even pretended to faint at work! The company has warned you multiple times, yet you threaten the leadership with your pregnancy!"
Wu Youyou rushed to Lan Qingqing's workstation, aiming the megaphone at her face, and shouted, "So you're pregnant, huh? Whose child is it? Didn't you say you didn't have a boyfriend? Huh?"
The piercing sound nearly shattered Lan Qingqing's eardrums. Just as she was about to retort, Wu Youyou continued with the megaphone, "Being pregnant out of wedlock is quite impressive! You don’t even know who the father is! And yet you dare to use your pregnancy to pressure the company’s leadership! What do you think, that you can single-handedly ruin the company’s reputation? Hilarious, Lan Qingqing! The company fired you because of your poor character! Because you don’t work! But you deliberately slander the company and twist the reasons for your dismissal! You have no shame! What a big face you have!!!"
At that moment, Tong Le stood at the entrance of the Office Lobby, watching this spectacular performance while taking out her phone to record it all. She sent the video to Ke Wenjie with a message: "Lan Qingqing is pregnant. I’m surprised."
After sending the message, Tong Le smirked to herself. It turned out that being a green tea was such a delightful thing!
