Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 241 I'll Cling to Your Coattails

"Manager Zhong, your transformation sure is quick," Zhao Yulu sneered.

"Zhao Yulu, you should know that it was Tao Yingjun who made me do this. I'm just a minor manager. Tao Yingjun has a higher position than me, and he has a father who is a vice president. When he tells me to do something, I can't just ignore it, right? I was forced to do it. In fact, I was very reluctant to do such things," Zhong Lezhi said with a pained expression.

"Manager Zhong, you make it sound like you're so innocent. From the way you behaved yesterday, it seemed like you were trying to trouble me in order to please Tao Yingjun. I didn't see any reluctance from you. Instead, I saw you looking like you were quite enjoying it. You were very eager to show off and curry favor with Tao Yingjun.

Don't think I can't see through you," Zhao Yulu said with a cold laugh.

"Yes, I did have that intention, but I had no choice. This is the tragedy of small figures like me. I hope you can forgive me, considering the fact that I have elders and juniors to take care of."

Having his intentions exposed, Zhong Lezhi did not try to argue but openly admitted it and even played the sympathy card in hopes of winning Zhao Yulu's compassion.

Women tend to be soft-hearted; hopefully, it would work.

"Manager Zhong, everyone has to pay the price for their actions. If you were just following Tao Yingjun's orders and assigning me work without looking so pleased about it, I might have actually forgiven you if you apologized to me now. But after the way you acted yesterday, it's impossible for me to forgive you like that.

I've already told you that I'm not someone you can bully at will, and I've warned you that you would regret it. But you just wouldn't listen, so you can't blame me," Zhao Yulu said.

Zhao Yulu had no intention of forgiving Zhong Lezhi.

The tragedy of a little man.

Having elders and juniors to care for.

It's all nonsense.

If Zhong Lezhi wants to oppress her to please Tao Yingjun, then he's going to have to pay the price.

"Zhao Yulu, I really know I was wrong, and I will do whatever it takes for you to forgive me. You can hit me, curse me, or even ask me to kneel down. I just beg you to forgive me," Zhong Lezhi pleaded.

Zhong Lezhi was quite a character; to obtain Zhao Yulu's forgiveness, he was willing to do anything, even kneel before her.

This was his capacity to bend and stretch.

"Manager Zhong, you don't have to do this. I'm not going to forgive you that easily. You will pay the price you ought to pay. If there's nothing else, I'm going back to work," said Zhao Yulu.

Zhao Yulu turned and left.

"Zhao Yulu, are you really going to be this ruthless?" Zhong Lezhi stared at Zhao Yulu's departing figure, his face extremely unsightly.

Once Zhao Yulu walked out of the office door, he would be completely finished.

"Manager Zhong, it's not that I'm being ruthless; it's that you went too far," Zhao Yulu said without turning back, then she left the office.

She returned to her workstation.

Her colleague Li Minmin leaned over and asked, "Yu Lu, what did Manager Zhong want with you?"

Zhao Yulu smiled and said, "What do you think?"

Li Minmin blinked: "He knows you're close with Han Mengting and has discovered Han Mengting's identity. Is he apologizing to you, asking for your forgiveness?"

Zhao Yulu smiled and nodded, "You got it right."

Li Minmin pressed on, "So, did you forgive him?"

"No," Zhao Yulu shook her head.

"Yeah, it's right not to forgive him. If you forgave him just because he apologized, others would think you're easy to talk to, and more people would bully you," Min Min said.

"In the workplace, we need to establish a reputation for not being easy to mess with, so that others won't dare to bully us easily," she added.

Li Minmin nodded repeatedly and even shared a piece of her mind.

"Min Min, you graduated last year just like me, but why do I feel like you're an old hand at office politics?" Zhao Yulu said.

"Humph, all I learned in one year, don't you doubt it. I've tried it, and it works. In my previous company, some old employees bullied me, but later they apologized, and I forgave them. When other people bullied me, I fought back fiercely and made them look bad. After that, no one dared to bully me again," Li Minmin said proudly.

"So that's how it is. You're right, if others bully us, we should fight back and let everybody know we're not to be trifled with," Zhao Yulu said.

"Yeah, right, Yu Lu, our company should be acquired by Penguin soon, right?" Li Minmin asked again.

"It should be very soon. Penguin is determined to succeed with this acquisition; they won't drag it out," Zhao Yulu replied.

"After the acquisition, with Han Mengting becoming president, given her relationship with you, she should relocate you, right?" Li Minmin inquired.

"Yes," Zhao Yulu nodded.

"Where to? Come on, tell me," Li Minmin pressed eagerly.

"Transferring to... better not say for now. You'll find out when the time comes," Zhao Yulu said.

"Yu Lu, please tell me, if you don't, it's like being clawed by a cat; I won't be able to sleep at night," Li Minmin pleaded.

"If I tell you, you can't tell anyone else," Zhao Yulu considered and then said.

"Yu Lu, you can trust me, I'm someone who can keep a secret," Li Minmin assured her.

"Well, once Penguin acquires our company and Sister Ting becomes the president, she'll move me to her side to be her assistant, to help her with company matters," Zhao Yulu revealed.

"Han Mengting is making you her assistant, you're going to be the president's confidante," Li Minmin was astonished.

The president's assistant, although not a high-ranking position, was someone even the vice presidents didn't dare to underestimate.

Besides, working alongside the president would connect you with important people and teach you a lot.

In the future, you would definitely be able to hold your own.

Zhao Yulu, like her, had not been with the company long, and hadn't even finished her probationary period.

She had to grind away at her post, with promotion and salary increase seeming very distant.

But Zhao Yulu was on her way to becoming the president's assistant.

Some people's fortunes just can't be compared.

"Min Min, this matter isn't finalized yet. After all, Penguin hasn't successfully acquired our company yet, so you must not spread the word. If the acquisition doesn't go through and this gets out, everyone in the company will laugh at me, and I won't be able to continue working here," Zhao Yulu cautioned her once more.

It happened to her before when she worked at the bank.

She had asked Chen Guanglei to help, to have the ten billion fund of the Southwest Commerce Association's special investment fund entrusted to the bank.

With Chen Guanglei's guarantee, she boasted about it before it was settled.

When the deal fell through, she became a laughingstock at the bank, and the bank manager disapproved of her, showing her disdain every day. This led to her resignation from the bank.

"Yu Lu, don't worry, I won't say anything," Li Minmin assured her once again, then continued, "But Penguin's acquisition of our company is a done deal. You'll be the president's assistant soon, I really will miss you."

"Min Min, we are friends. Don't worry, I'll help you if there's a chance. I won't let you stay in an entry-level position for too long," Zhao Yulu said.

She got along especially well with Li Minmin. Once she became an assistant, she would definitely give Li Minmin a hand if given the chance.

Moreover, Han Mengting had said that she would only act as the president of Shengda Literature for a maximum of three years and would later recommend her for the presidency.

By then, she would need her own team.

"Yu Lu, really? Will you really help me?" Li Minmin exclaimed excitedly.

"Of course. We joined together, and I'm closest to you. I consider you a good friend. You've helped me many times, and I remember it all. I'll definitely help you if I get a chance," Zhao Yulu assured.

"Yeah, thank you Yu Lu. I'll be counting on your support then," Li Minmin said, nodding repeatedly.
