t use chopsticks. Young Madam, please help him.">She blinked her long eyelashes, seeming not to quite grasp Zhang's meaning. Her right hand was indeed injured, but she still had her left hand, didn't...Tang Wanting's appearance happened to interrupt Lin Xiaoxiao's next words. Lin Xiaoxiao quickly stood up from her chair and made way.

Tang Wanting strode over and naturally sat in Lin Xiaoxiao's place. Her sharp gaze swept over everyone present, lingering especially on Lin Jinyan.

Her gaze finally settled on the data before her, a playful smirk curving her red lips. "Have you all started looking"

Everyone was puzzled, wondering what they were looking at.

"Headquarters just sent word, this year's competition requires us to draw inspiration from past winning entries."

So everyone here, needs to review all the past competition entries within a week, and also make notes. A week later, the data will be transported back to headquarters, where they will need to use it.

As soon as Tang Wanting uttered a single sentence, everyone burst into wails.

"A week, isn't that too rushed I can't finish it all."

"Yeah, the competition is still a month away, why are you so anxious"

"How can you finish watching this, what, what should we do"

"Bang."

The sound of something crisp landing on the table silenced the murmur that had filled the room.

Everyone looked nervously at Tang Wanting's delicate yet tense face, none daring to speak.

"This was a decision made by headquarters. You can't finish reading it here, take it home and read it. I will conduct a random check next week. Anyone who is caught not having read it will have their monthly bonus deducted. Xu Xiaoxiao and Lin Jinyan stay behind, everyone else disperse."

Tang Wanting's voice was soft, but in the conference room where a pin could be heard falling, it reached every corner and every ear.

Who else dares to refute

Soon, only three people were left in the conference room. Tang Wanting rubbed her data with her fingers and said with concern, "Xiaoxiao, this matter is time-sensitive and urgent. Your work entered the top ten last year, and this year you must work harder and strive to enter the top three."

Pass off any of your current work that can be handed over temporarily. Right now, you only need to focus all your energy on studying the materials and designing works to compete in this competition.

Similarly, Lin Jinran took over XiaoXiao's work and assisted her.

This statement by Tang Wanting is said to be for Lin Xiaoxiao's good, but if you listen carefully, it undoubtedly sidelines her through this incident.

Giving her tasks to an intern seems absurd.

Lin Xiaoxiao wasn't stupid. She hated it in her heart, itching with anger but couldn't show it. She smiled and said, "I can still handle it for now. If I can't handle it anymore, I'll definitely ask Jin Yan to help me."

"Director, I believe Assistant Lin is definitely capable of completing the task excellently." Lin Jinran spoke at an appropriate time. No matter what Tang Wanting's purpose was, this would certainly make Lin Xiaoxiao dislike her even more.

Leaving the conference room, Lin Xiaoxiao stormed off without even glancing at Lin Jinyan, slamming the door shut and entering her own office.

When the forest had been dyed, Lin couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

After work, Lin Jinran ran into Hou Shao while waiting for the elevator. Hou Shao was going to take the bus.

Lin Jin's driver suddenly had something to do today, so whether he would come or not was uncertain. She was also preparing to take the bus.

The two people happened to be walking in the same direction. Hou Shaojian saw Lin Jinyan looking gloomy and downcast, as if she had something on her mind. He thought of some amusing things and wanted to share them with her.

Unaware of it, their every move was captured in the cold gaze of a pair of piercing black eyes.

The little woman curled her lips, and beside her stood a man in a white shirt, black jeans, tall and slender, with a low smile.

Fu Mo's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the carriage was instantly filled with a dangerous aura.

His cold face was now as dark as ink, his thin lips drawn tightly together.

Zhang Sao's phone call had sent her to pick up Lin Jinran, but she hadn't expected this scene.

It's truly ironic!

"Master, shall I call the young mistress again" The driver shivered inexplicably, feeling a sudden drop in temperature inside the car.

"Drive." Jinran and Ji Yun Ting returned to the Fu residence. When they entered, Zhang Sao was resting, and Xiao Yu didn't like her anyway, so she didn't tell her that Fu Mo Han had come back.Back in the bedr...
