Han Mengting glanced at Tao Yingjun with a trace of disgust flashing in her eyes.

This ugly man.

How could he think she had come for him?

Really, he had no self-awareness at all!

“Yu Lu.”

She stepped aside Tao Yingjun and approached Zhao Yulu, giving her a hug.

“Sister Ting,” Zhao Yulu was also very surprised to see Han Mengting walking towards her.

She knew that Han Mengting must have come for her.

She couldn’t help feeling elated.

Now, without her having to say anything, everyone knew she was connected to Han Mengting.

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned.

“Damn, I thought this beauty was going for Tao, but she was actually going for Zhao Yulu.”

“It seems that Zhao Yulu has a very good relationship with this beauty.”

“Of course, otherwise, why would she hug her as soon as she came up?”

“No wonder Zhao Yulu dared to refuse Tao, she has such a solid background.”

“This Zhao Yulu has really been hiding deep.”

“Yeah, compared to the powerful women of Penguin Group, Tao’s vice-president daddy’s background doesn’t seem so impressive now.”

“That’s right, our company’s vice president can’t compare to the strong women of Penguin Group.”

“If our company gets acquired by Penguin, Zhao Yulu might just become one of the strongest people in our company.”

The crowd buzzed with discussion, looking at Zhao Yulu with faces full of envy.

At the same time, they looked mockingly at Tao Yingjun.

At that moment, Tao Yingjun still had a frozen smile on his face, his hand was still awkwardly suspended in mid-air.

For fuck’s sake, he had thought the beauty from Penguin had fallen for him at first sight, ready to throw herself into his arms, and that they would enjoy themselves tonight.

He had even planned how he would entertain this powerful, beautiful woman tonight.

But unexpectedly, she wasn’t here for him, she was here for Zhao Yulu.

His face turned shades of green and white, and feeling the mocking gazes around him, he was angry yet at a loss for how to react.

He certainly did not dare lash out at Han Mengting unless he wanted to lose his job.

If he lost his temper with Han Mengting, once the company was acquired by Penguin, probably not even his father could save him.

And even if he didn’t lash out, his situation was grim.

Zhao Yulu’s relationship with Han Mengting was out of the ordinary.

Once Penguin invested in and acquired Shengda Literature, the thought of his fate was frightening.

Among the crowd, one person’s face was particularly pale.

This person was Zhong Lezhi, the Operations Manager.

He had been tough on Zhao Yulu at the instigation of Tao Yingjun.

Originally, he thought Zhao Yulu was just an ordinary person; making life difficult for her was not a big deal.

To give Tao Yingjun satisfaction by challenging an ordinary person came with its benefits.

But now, seeing the close relationship between the powerful woman from Penguin and Zhao Yulu put him in a bind.

It reminded him of two phrases Zhao Yulu had previously said.

One was: I am not someone you can bully at will.

The other was: You will regret this.

When Zhao Yulu said those words before, Zhong Lezhi did not take them seriously and didn’t give them a second thought.

Now, in this situation, these words were fully confirmed.

Zhao Yulu indeed was not someone he could bully at will.

And he was full of regret.

If he had known earlier about Zhao Yulu’s powerful background, even if Tao Yingjun offered him benefits, he shouldn’t have made things difficult for her.

But now, he had completely offended Zhao Yulu.

If Shengda Literature were to be acquired by Penguin, Zhao Yulu would certainly not let him off easily.

Thinking of this, Zhong Lezhi’s face turned even paler.

“Yu Lu, I’m leaving first, we’ll talk another day,” Han Mengting said, coming over just to greet Zhao Yulu, effectively backing her up.

After all, it would take some time to negotiate the Penguin Corporation’s acquisition of Shengda Literature.

This negotiation was a war of attrition.

Only if the Penguin Corporation successfully acquired Shengda Literature could she assume the position of president.

But before that, Zhao Yulu’s situation probably wouldn’t be easy.

According to what Zhao Yulu said, she might be forced to resign.

This wasn’t what she wanted to see.

That was also why she did what she did.

In a nutshell, she was backing Zhao Yulu.

Let everyone know that Zhao Yulu had this connection with her.

That Tao Yingjun, who couldn’t win Zhao Yulu over and wanted to make things difficult for her, wouldn’t dare to trouble Zhao Yulu anymore, even if he had a deputy director as a father.

Once she took office as the president of Shengda Literature, she would handle this father and son according to Zhao Yulu’s wishes.

People like Tao Yingjun had done too many shady things.

Finding some leverage against him would be all too easy.

With Tao Yingjun’s deputy director father indulging him like that, he surely wasn’t clean either.

It would be easy to dig up something on them.

“Alright,” Zhao Yulu nodded.

At this moment, she was extremely happy.

She was just waiting for the Penguin Corporation to acquire Shengda Literature and for Han Mengting to become the president of Shengda Literature.

Then, she would be the president’s assistant.

Han Mengting rejoined the group and, along with Han Jun and others, left for the elevator.

Recovering from his awkwardness, Tao Yingjun looked at Zhao Yulu and asked, “What is your relationship with that woman?”

“Sorry, no comment,” Zhao Yulu replied coldly and headed towards the elevator.

“You…” Tao Yingjun’s face turned extremely ugly.

Did this Zhao Yulu really think that just because she was associated with a powerful woman from Penguin, she could disregard him?

Even if Penguin acquired Shengda Literature, it wasn’t certain whether that powerful woman would be able to take charge of Shengda Literature.

Only a true high-level executive could intervene in the internal affairs of an acquired company.

Considering how young that powerful woman was, she couldn’t possibly be one of Penguin’s executives, could she?

If she was not an executive, she couldn’t have authority over Shengda Literature.

Thinking this, Tao Yingjun felt somewhat relieved.

However, he still had to consult his father about this matter.

To avoid being caught off guard should any unexpected situation arise.

“Manager Tao, do you know what position that woman holds at Penguin?”

Zhong Lezhi came over, looking worried as he asked.

He had already completely fallen out with Zhao Yulu.

If that powerful woman truly was one of Penguin’s high-level executives, and Penguin acquired Shengda Literature, and she involved herself in the affairs of Shengda Literature, then that would be problematic.

He would be in big trouble.

He had only just managed to become a supervisor, and he didn’t want to be fired.

Shengda Literature was a leading company in the industry, and the compensation was quite good.

If he got fired, finding such a good position wouldn’t be easy.

“I don’t know, I have to ask my dad first,” Tao Yingjun shook his head.

“Manager Tao, I listened to you this time and offended Zhao Yulu. You have to cover for me,” Zhong Lezhi begged.

He knew that people like him would be the scapegoats if anything went wrong.

He truly regretted it. If he could do it over, he wouldn’t have followed Tao Yingjun’s suggestions to give Zhao Yulu a hard time.

There was no helping it now; the deed was done, so he had to rely on Tao Yingjun.

“Supervisor Zhong, don’t worry, since you’ve been working for me, I will definitely cover for you. Besides, that woman… she’s probably not a big shot, she won’t have authority over us but for now, stop making things difficult for Zhao Yulu,” said Tao Yingjun.

“I understand,” Zhong Lezhi nodded.

He wouldn’t go after Zhao Yulu without Tao Yingjun saying so. Before getting the full picture, he wasn’t foolish enough to continue hassling Zhao Yulu.

“Alright, I’ll go ask my dad and clarify the situation,” Tao Yingjun turned and left.
