Chapter 56 They Failed

She broke free from his embrace and immediately left.

Back in the office area, Wen Yan's heart was still racing.

"Wen Yan, why did you just go see Mr. Ye?" Yang Qian leaned in gossipily.

"Just to confirm something."

"Oh~ are you very familiar with Mr. Ye?" Yang Qian was very curious.

Wen Yan didn't know how to answer.

Yang Qian's smile became even more peculiar.

Suddenly, she had an idea, "Actually, I got the surveillance footage with Mr. Ye's permission. I was thanking Mr. Ye."

"Okay, so that's how it is. Mr. Ye is really a good person."

"That's right, after all, it's a matter concerning the company's reputation."

Yang Qian nodded, not finding it strange, but rather envious.

Wen Yan made a few perfunctory remarks and took out her phone to message Leng Xunze.

[Did you receive it?]

A moment later, the other party replied: [Yes. It was delicious.]

Wen Yan was very happy: [I'm glad you liked it. I'll make it for you again!]

Leng Xunze: [Won't it be too much trouble?]

Wen Yan: [It's not troublesome. It's the same effort to cook for one person as it is for two, hehe.]

Leng Xunze: [Good.]

Only then did Wen Yan's heart settle.

Meanwhile, Zuo An walked into the office, intending to ask if lunch was the usual, but saw a bento box already on his boss's desk. The simple bento box seemed out of place on the luxurious and grand desk.

Zuo An thought that his boss had to order it himself because he was late.

"I'm sorry, boss, I just finished my work and came to order your meal. I'll have the hotel send it over now," Zuo An said immediately.

"No need."

Mr. Ye's voice was cold, "I already have food."

"Do you mean this?" Zuo An looked at it, feeling more guilty. When did his boss ever eat such simple food? "Boss, it's all my fault. I should have come earlier..."

Mr. Ye's deep, narrow eyes swept over him, seeming a little speechless.

"Don't eat it. I'll order it now," Zuo An hurriedly said, "Outside food is not hygienic."

"This was made by Wen Yan." The man's deep, magnetic voice remained indifferent, but there was a hint of pride in it...

Zuo An was stunned. Madam made it?

Looking closer, although the meal looked simple, it was visually appealing and smelled delicious.

"So it was made by Madam. No wonder it looks so appetizing. Madam's cooking is really good. But wasn't Madam at the company all this time?" Zuo An said, then looked confused.

"It was made this morning."

Mr. Ye said, "I didn't want her to make it, but she insisted on making it for me."

This time, Zuo An clearly heard the pride in his words.

Looking at Mr. Ye, his expression was a little complicated.

When did Mr. Ye become someone who would brag about such a small matter!

"Madam really cares about you, Mr. Ye. Women are like that. When they fall in love with someone, they give their all. However, if that's the case, won't it be troublesome for you when you go back?"

They all knew that Leng Xunze would not stay in a small city like Haicheng.

The man's eyes were deep and intense, and after a few seconds, he said faintly, "Given her personality, it won't be troublesome."

"That's good."

Before Zuo An left, he watched Mr. Ye eat, elegant and distinguished.

He, who had always eaten high-end meals, now seemed to have a touch of earthly charm.

Wen Yan was busy until evening and went to the hospital to get her test results.

The results confirmed the presence of a sedative.

When Wen Yan's mother learned of her plan, she was startled.

"Yan Yan, I thought you were just saying it. If you really sue Li Mengyao, won't that be like fighting against your own kin? I can't let something like this happen!" Wen Yan's mother firmly denied it.

Wen Yan didn't expect her mother to agree.

"Mom, don't worry about this matter."

Wen Yan's mother looked at her with distress, "Yan Yan, do you really have to be so ruthless?"

Wen Yan looked at her mother with determination. Wen Yan's mother sat aside and cried silently, sobbing, "My life, why is it so bitter? If the ancestors saw this, wouldn't I be a sinner? Can I still enter the Li family's ancestral grave in the future? Wuwuwuwu..."

If it were in the past, Wen Yan would have appeased her mother.

But this time, no one could shake her resolve.

If Li Mengyao could do something like this now, she would only become more ruthless in the future.

Wen Yan directly sued Li Mengyao.

With conclusive evidence, the court quickly accepted the case.

When Li Mengyao received the summons, she was stunned. She never expected Wen Yan to do such a thing.

Because the evidence was conclusive, she was soon arrested.

After finishing all this, Wen Yan returned home and fell asleep on the bed, exhausted.

The next morning, her phone was bombarded.

They were all calls from her aunt and uncle.

There were also various malicious text messages.

[The Li family raised you for so many years, and you did something like this. Do you believe I'll expose you and have netizens dox you? People like you should go to hell. You're worse than dogs, you slut should go to hell!]

[You're not replying to messages, are you? Do you think you can hide like this? I'm telling you, if Mengyao gets into trouble, you'll be finished too. If she's locked up, I'll make sure your remaining life is miserable!]

[You ungrateful wretch, I should have kicked you and your mother out back then and let you starve on the streets. You're here to collect debts. The Li family gave everything to help you, and you're framing us and trying to get Mengyao out!]

[Bitch, you should go to hell. Die sooner rather than later. You're wasting the country's air by living. I wish you a terrible death!]

[...]

There were even more vicious words.

It was unbearable to read.

Wen Yan directly turned off her phone and, as usual, made lunch for two and went to the company.

Yang Qian and Zhang Zhikun's projects had results, as did Liu Huanhuan's team. They all came to the conference room.

"Everyone's here."

Lin Fang sat at the front and looked at them. "It's been over a week, and I know you've all worked very hard. Some of you have achieved excellent results. Next, I will announce the status of your projects."

"First, for Group One, almost all the projects you chose were successfully bid for. Wen Yan secured the project from Anta Company, which is commendable. Yang Qian got the order from Mrs. Zhang, and Zhang Zhikun also secured the order from General Manager Yang. Liu Huanhuan and Wan Zhihua together secured the project from Shengyue Company."

Wen Yan looked at Liu Huanhuan and Wan Zhihua.

They had actually secured the Shengyue Company project. This project was comparable to the Anta Company project.

Yang Qian breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

This way, they had still won.

However, Lin Fang then said, "Based on the profit rankings, Group Two wins this time! The bonus will be awarded to Group Two, and the individual bonus will be awarded to Liu Huanhuan!"

Yang Qian was stunned and immediately said, "Sister Fang, did you make a mistake?"
