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

Chapter 231: Chapter 231 Making Things Difficult



The next day.

Zhao Yulu arrived at the company for work.

Her colleague, Li Minmin with the black framed glasses, had already arrived.

As soon as she sat down, Li Minmin leaned in and said, "Yu Lu, you openly rejected Tao Yingjun yesterday and completely offended him. He said he wants to have you leave the company. I think things are looking bad for you."

If she hadn't had dinner with Han Mengting the night before, Zhao Yulu might have sighed.

After all, looking for a new job would still be somewhat troublesome.

But not now, she simply responded with a calm demeanor, "There's nothing I can do. I can't just agree to be his girlfriend because I'm afraid of offending him. I don't like him, and there's no way I would agree to be his girlfriend."

Li Minmin suggested in a low voice, "Yu Lu, I think you should take a humble approach and apologize to Tao Yingjun. He might still forgive you."

Zhao Yulu replied, "I did nothing wrong. Why should I lower myself to apologize to him?"

Li Minmin sighed and said, "Yu Lu, in the workplace, sometimes it's not about right or wrong. For the sake of one's job, one has to endure even if it's unfair."

Zhao Yulu said, "No matter what, I won't apologize. If he really has the ability to make me leave, then so be it, I'll leave."

Once Han Mengting parachutes in to become the president of Shengda Literature, and I become Han Mengting's assistant, then I'll find a way to get rid of that disgusting scumbag Tao Yingjun!

"Alright, let's pretend I didn't say anything," Li Minmin, seeing that Zhao Yulu could not be persuaded, dropped the subject.

She couldn't help but lament that sometimes being too beautiful was not necessarily a good thing.

9:30 AM.

Zhong Lezhi, the Operations Department Supervisor, came to Zhao Yulu's desk carrying a stack of thick files.

He placed the files directly on Zhao Yulu's desk.

"Zhao Yulu, come up with the operational plans for these projects and hand them to me within three days," Zhong Lezhi said expressionlessly.

As soon as Zhong Lezhi had walked in, all the colleagues had taken notice.

Seeing Zhong Lezhi assigning tasks to Zhao Yulu, especially such a thick stack of files, which appeared to include at least ten folders, everyone realized the enormity of the task.

To come up with more than ten operational plans, even an experienced employee couldn't complete them within three days.

Maybe it was possible if the time was doubled and they worked overtime.

Zhao Yulu was still a newcomer, and her probationary period wasn't even over, how could she possibly complete it?

Clearly, Zhong Lezhi was deliberately making things difficult for Zhao Yulu.

Since Zhao Yulu had joined the company, she had been diligent and hard-working, and it seemed as if she had no issues with Zhong Lezhi.

Moreover, when Zhao Yulu had first arrived, Zhong Lezhi had introduced her with a few other new hires to the old colleagues, and had even complimented her.

So why was he picking on Zhao Yulu now?

Obviously, Zhong Lezhi was being instructed by someone.

Who was instructing Zhong Lezhi?

Connecting it to the previous night, when Zhao Yulu publicly rejected Tao Yingjun after work,

Tao Yingjun, furious and embarrassed, had declared that he would make Zhao Yulu leave.

Everyone immediately understood that the most likely scenario was that Tao Yingjun had instructed Zhong Lezhi to do so.

And indeed, that was the case, Tao Yingjun had instructed Zhong Lezhi to do so.

As long as Zhao Yulu failed to complete the work, they would have grounds to fire her.

If Zhao Yulu dared to resist, they could fire her just the same.

Everyone sighed silently in their hearts.

They couldn't help but feel some sympathy for Zhao Yulu.

Having just started work, she found herself entangled with the likes of Tao Yingjun.

What's worse, Tao Yingjun's father was a deputy general manager with shares in the company.

Offending Tao Yingjun won't work out well.

It probably won't be many days before Zhao Yulu will really be forced to leave Shengda Literature.

"Manager Zhong, assigning so many proposals to a new employee who hasn't even passed the probation period, and requiring them to be completed within three days, do you think I can finish them?"

Zhao Yulu calmly retorted.

If it were before, she would have been very angry.

But now, she wasn't angry.

Because in her view, Zhong Lezhi coming to trouble her was bound to fail.

When Han Mengting took over as the president of Shengda Literature, and she became the president's assistant, this Zhong Lezhi would probably be scared witless.

Therefore, not to mention Zhong Lezhi, even Tao Yingjun, let alone Tao Yingjun's father, she wasn't afraid of any of them.

At this moment, in her eyes, Zhong Lezhi was nothing more than a jumping clown.

The more he frolicked now, the worse his end would be later.

At this thought, a mocking smile appeared on the corners of Zhao Yulu's mouth.

Zhao Yulu's reaction surprised her colleagues.

This Zhao Yulu, truly bold, directly confronted the leadership.

It must be said, such courage was admirable.

Zhong Lezhi saw Zhao Yulu's response, her demeanor surprisingly calm.

Even revealing a mocking smile made her feel very uncomfortable.

A junior employee actually showed a mocking smile towards her.

This couldn't be tolerated.

If this were tolerated, what dignity would she, as a manager, have in front of the employees?

"Zhao Yulu, I arranged a task for you, just do it. If you're willing to do it, you can complete it. If you can't finish it, it only shows that there's a problem with your abilities!" Zhong Lezhi spoke gravely.

"Manager Zhong, let's not beat around the bush. With so many proposals, even an experienced employee would find it hardly possible to complete them in double the time, yet you're asking a new employee to finish them within three days, what is your intention?!" Zhao Yulu shot back defiantly.

Hiss…

The colleagues all drew in a breath of cold air to themselves.

If Zhao Yulu's initial reaction had startled her colleagues, what she was doing now had utterly shocked them.

Directly questioning Zhong Lezhi's intentions was clearly a move to tear off the mask of civility.

"Zhao Yulu, what sort of attitude is that? I've arranged legitimate work for you, what right do you have to question me?" Zhong Lezhi said angrily.

Leaving aside the matter of making things difficult for Zhao Yulu at Tao Yingjun's behest, it had now become an issue of her own face, and this made her temper rise rapidly.

"Manager Zhong, ask your conscience, is the task you arranged for me really legitimate? You're just deliberately making things difficult for me and still talking as if you're honorable. Being a dog for Tao Yingjun won't lead to a good outcome!" Zhao Yulu stated.

Upon hearing this, the colleagues weren't just shocked anymore, but horrified.

My goodness, what on earth was Zhao Yulu thinking?

This was an outright confrontation.

To actually call Zhong Lezhi Tao Yingjun's dog...

"Zhao Yulu, what I arranged is legitimate work. Your attitude towards me, and even dragging Manager Tao into this, is utterly outrageous!" Zhong Lezhi trembled with fury.

Tao Yingjun, relying on his father's connections, was a manager of a certain department.

"Is it I who is outrageous, or you? You know very well yourself," Zhao Yulu said fearlessly.

"You…" Zhong Lezhi was so infuriated she didn't know what to say. As for Zhao Yulu, who seemed ready to go all out, the more she spoke here, the less advantageous it seemed for him. So instead, he turned with a cold laugh, "Zhao Yulu, in any case, I've already assigned the work to you. If you can't complete it, it just proves that you're incompetent and not fit for this job.

You know the consequences."

Having said that, Zhong Lezhi turned and left directly.

"Zhong Lezhi, being a dog for Tao Yingjun, you want to force me out of the company with such tactics; let me tell you, you won't succeed," Zhao Yulu said.

Zhong Lezhi sneered and didn't speak again, returning to her office.
