Yang Qin thought everything was simply incredibly absurd.
"Are you threatening me?" Yang Qin asked.
Shen Shaoqing had instead calmed down at this moment. "Let's not talk about personal matters. Officially, as the person in charge from the Huo Corporation, Secretary Ling had a dispute with you because of your personal emotions, which directly affected the cooperation between our company and the Huo Corporation. In terms of work, this is a serious mistake."
Yang Qin: "?"
"Your actions will bring huge losses to the company. Considering what you've done for the company over the years, I can choose not to pursue this. You can resign on your own. It'll be a good parting for both the company and you." Shen Shaoqing said, sounding rather cold - hearted.
Yang Qin thought it was extremely ridiculous.
She looked at Ling Nuan. "Ling Nuan, are you very happy and proud?"
Ling Nuan let out a soft snort. "Happy about what? I'm just here for work. As for the internal affairs of your company, I'm not interested."
Hearing this, Yang Qin looked at Shen Shaoqing again. "So, you're determined to fire me?"
Shen Shaoqing looked serious and didn't say a word, clearly implying his agreement.
Yang Qin never thought that after targeting Ling Nuan in the company for so many years and finally driving her away, things would take a turn. Just because of a few words of bickering with Ling Nuan, Shen Shaoqing was going to fire her?
How ridiculous.
She had said much more excessive things to Ling Nuan in the past.
At that moment, Yang Qin suddenly understood something.
"Ling Nuan, you're smarter than me." Yang Qin said, and then looked at Shen Shaoqing mockingly. "Men are just cheap. They don't cherish what they have when they get it. They start to regret it after losing it. I was really blind. But Ling Nuan, you're not much better than me."
Yang Qin directly took off the work badge on her chest. "Don't worry, Mr. Shen. I'll resign. From now on, I, Yang Qin, have nothing to do with you, Shen Shaoqing, or Qingnuan Technology."
After saying this, Yang Qin turned around and left, leaving Zhang Yan standing there sweating nervously, not knowing what to do at all.
If Yang Qin was leaving, could she still stay?
However, the three people present had no intention of paying attention to her situation.
Shen Shaoqing looked at Ling Nuan and said with some difficulty, "I'm sorry for making Secretary Ling feel wronged in our company."
Ling Nuan didn't even bother to listen to this nonsense. "Where's the meeting room?"
Shen Shaoqing replied, "I'll take you there."
Ling Nuan mocked, "How could I dare to trouble Mr. Shen to receive me personally?"
Shen Shaoqing forced a smile.
Ling Nuan directly looked at Yang Cheng. Yang Cheng reacted quickly this time and immediately stepped forward. "Secretary Ling, this way please. Our meeting room is the large one on the upper floor. This way."
Shen Shaoqing watched as Yang Cheng led Ling Nuan away. He felt a bitter taste spreading in his mouth that he couldn't control.
Would she rather choose Yang Cheng, who had a grudge against her, than have any more contact with him?
If Ling Nuan knew what Shen Shaoqing was thinking, she would probably call him crazy.
Just like what Yang Qin suddenly realized, men are just cheap.
They didn't cherish her when she was by their side, making Ling Nuan suffer. They could easily give her up for anything. But after really losing her, they started to regret, started to do things they should have done before but now seemed meaningless, started to want to be good to her, and started to miss her constantly.
Regarding this, Ling Nuan only had three words to describe it.
So disgusting.
Fortunately, Shen Shaoqing probably knew how annoying he was. He didn't attend the subsequent meeting.
Instead, like a shady rat, he only dared to hide in his office and watch Ling Nuan on the monitor.
Ling Nuan was an outstanding person.
Shen Shaoqing had known this from the very beginning.
He remembered the first time he heard Ling Nuan's name. It was not long after the start of his freshman year in college.
"Have you heard? There's a really beautiful girl among the freshmen in our year. She's definitely the campus belle. Her name seems to be Ling Nuan."
Shen Shaoqing listened to his roommates chatting, smiled, and didn't join in. Instead, he continued to flip through his professional books.
"You're talking about Ling Nuan? I know her." One of his roommates said. "This girl is extremely amazing."
"What kind of amazing? Is she amazing in terms of looks? Hahaha." The others didn't take it seriously at all.
Hearing this, that roommate just smiled mysteriously and replied, "You'll know later."
Sure enough, not long after, Shen Shaoqing firmly remembered this girl named Ling Nuan.
She was the last disciple of the honorary dean of their School of Computer Science, even though she wasn't a student in that school. After that, Ling Nuan would also appear in many computer competitions. She was jokingly called the external aid of the School of Computer Science.
Later, Shen Shaoqing was on a team with Ling Nuan in a competition. From then on, something took root in Shen Shaoqing's heart and grew out of control.
The first time he invited her to dinner alone, the first time he gave her a gift.
The first time he hugged her, when their team won an award.
A name suddenly appeared in his original campus life.
When recalling the past, Shen Shaoqing realized that he had really chased Ling Nuan for a very long time, putting in a lot of effort. At that time, he wasn't so worldly. He truly gave his heart to Ling Nuan.
So, he touched her.
He confessed his love to her, and Ling Nuan agreed.
Ling Nuan was an outstanding person. After graduating from college, the dean recommended Ling Nuan to study abroad. But when Ling Nuan knew that he was starting a business and was short of technical personnel, she didn't hesitate to give up a better future to help him.
But what did she get in the end?
Shen Shaoqing felt as if a large part of his heart had been hollowed out. He couldn't help but hug his head and cry, as if as long as he cried sincerely enough, everything would go back to the beginning.
Ling Nuan had no idea what Shen Shaoqing was doing or thinking.
The products of Qingnuan Technology were developed by her. Now that she was here to discuss the cooperation, the questions she raised made the people from Qingnuan Technology retreat step by step. The people from Qingnuan Technology almost all had gloomy faces.
The atmosphere of the meeting was extremely bad.
When the meeting ended, Qin Rao couldn't hold back and directly threw the pen in his hand on the meeting table. "Ling Nuan, are you deliberately causing trouble?"
Ling Nuan raised her eyebrows. "Only by raising problems can we solve them."
Qin Rao snorted. "You ran away quickly yourself and tricked me into signing the contract, then left me here, right?"
As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere in the meeting room became a bit strange.
Ling Nuan was very calm. "It's a one - year contract. It'll be up soon. It's only a few months left. Just bear with it."
Everyone in the meeting room: "..."
Ling Nuan looked at him helplessly.
"Alright, can't I stop talking? How about having dinner together tonight?" Qin Rao invited.
Ling Nuan looked at the time and replied, "Although I really want to give you this face, I'm afraid I can't today."
Considering Huo Linsheng's personality, he would surely come to find her today.
Hearing this, Qin Rao didn't say anything. He walked out of the meeting room side by side with Ling Nuan, still chatting about code as they walked.
Then, they ran into Shen Shaoqing head - on.
"Secretary Ling, there are some work - related matters. How about having dinner together?" Shen Shaoqing pretended to be serious and invited.
Before Ling Nuan could refuse, she heard Qin Rao exclaim in shock, "No way? You refused my invitation just to have dinner with Shen Shaoqing?"
Ling Nuan: "?"
What absurd thing was he talking about?
The scariest thing was that Ling Nuan suddenly sensed something. She looked up and saw Huo Linsheng walking towards them.
Ling Nuan: "..."
Does Huo Linsheng have some kind of special radar installed?
