Shao Yan discovered that being popular to a certain extent can really be quite frustrating.

"Is that so? Then thank you, Mr. Meng. I don't need you to find me a place to stay. Mr. Meng, you should save your energy for your romantic getaway with your girlfriend."

It's been half a month, and Meng Yu still doesn't know that she moved out long ago.

Oh--

It's clear that she never existed in his heart.

Meng Yu looked at her very seriously.

"Shao Yan, I'm discussing something important with you, so don't be too willful. My future child with Pei Rongrong is very important to us. This is our first child, and if it's a boy, he will become the successor of our Meng Group."

You have received a lot of kindness from the Meng family over the years. Once you move into the place I arrange, I will provide you with a nanny, driver, and nursing team to take care of your daily needs. The kitchen will also prepare a three-star Michelin chef to ensure that your child is born healthy and safe.

That's all I need to say. It's decided. You can go home with my driver now and move your things to the place I told you about.

Shao Yan finally lost her temper.

"Meng Yu, you've been talking to yourself the whole time, and I haven't even given my opinion yet. I agree to let you use a surrogate. But you can keep your team, the apartment you rented for me, and all that lousy nursing care and the three-star Michelin Master for yourself."

She pushed her wheelchair, turned around, and left, slamming the door shut with a loud bang as she went out.

The company employees who were watching the commotion were all taken aback.

I thought it was President Meng scolding Assistant Shao, but I didn't expect Assistant Shao to come out angrily.

Those people immediately lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.

There was much discussion among privately about what exactly was going on between Assistant Shao and President Meng.

If Assistant Shao is completely relying on Old Master Meng's backing, then his temper is a bit too much.

This shows she completely disregards President Meng; no wonder President Meng looks down on her.

Which man would like a cripple who is neither charming nor pretty?

As Shao Yan left, she heard the sound of something being smashed coming from the office behind her.

She made one last attempt today, but the finance department couldn't find any information that would be favorable to her.

There's no point in staying with the Meng Group anymore.

But we can't let the old man know so soon.

Otherwise, the old man wouldn't have let her go so easily.

Shao Yan, who was originally going to the HR department to submit her resignation, took a precaution and asked for three months' leave instead.

The manager was surprised.

For the past few years, Assistant Shao has treated the company as her home, working tirelessly day and night, yet she still takes leave.

Meng Yu threw a tantrum in the office before letting Ye Xin go find Shao Yan, only to be told that Shao Yan had taken leave.

Ye Xin knew that Shao Yan and Meng Yu seemed to have a big conflict recently, so she added fuel to the fire at the right time.

"Mr. Meng, I don't think Assistant Shao is asking for leave at all; she probably doesn't want to work here anymore."

Meng Yu took a deep drag on his cigarette. Knowing Shao Yan as he did, he knew she was just trying to get his attention this way.

If she's really fired, she'll cry and complain to the old man again.

But this time was different from the past. Shao Yan's main task was not to be some kind of useless assistant at the company, but to be a surrogate for him and Pei Rongrong.

In the past, when she acted a little capricious, Meng Yu would always give in to her, but this time she couldn't afford to act recklessly.

He was certain that, let alone three months, Shao Yan would be considered to have backbone if she could endure not contacting him for even three days.

Meng Yu called the HR department and instructed them that Shao Yan was not allowed to return to the company for less than three months.

If she wants a vacation, let her have one. Meng Yu is waiting for Shao Yan to beg him to come back.

After leaving the Meng Group, Shao Yan immediately went to Honda Fit.

Han Yifei was waiting for her in the reception room. When Shao Yan saw him, her heart sank.

The Honda Fit is indeed related to Han Yifei.

Shao Yan had lost interest in communicating. If Han Yifei was indeed in charge of the Fit, there was no need for her to stay here.

Han Yifei saw the disappointment in Shao Yan's eyes and said in a deep voice.

"You've got the guts to send me your resume, but not the courage to even have a few words with me?"

Shao Yan knew that this man and Meng Yu were mortal enemies, and the rumors were true that the Honda Fit had always been suppressing the Meng Group.

"Mr. Han, I think I've made a mistake."

Even if she wanted to take back what belonged to her from the Meng Group, she wouldn't stoop to cooperating with someone like Han Yifei.

Meng Yu described Han Yifei as despicable and without any moral bottom line.

Shao Yan also suffered a lot at the hands of the Fit, and despite her best efforts, she could only manage a draw.

This year, the Fit has made things even more difficult for her. With major internal reforms, the Meng Group is clearly no match for Fit.

"What's wrong? Regretting your choice of Meng Yu and turning to the light—isn't that setting things right?"

Shao Yan didn't want to explain her grudge with Meng Yu to him.

As she turned to leave, Han Yifei struck a chord deep within her.

"Shao Yan, you fell in love with the wrong person. Don't you understand the consequences of being love-struck? You missed out on the Fit, and now there's no company in Beicheng that can rival the Meng family. Many people are saying that you're actually Mrs. Meng, and I want to know if it's true or not."

Shao Yan subconsciously believed that Han Yifei had investigated her, and that the so-called "many people" were just fabricated by Han Yifei.

"Mr. Han, I don't want to explain things that are just baseless rumors."

Han Yifei tapped the table lightly: "Shao Yan, we at Fit are not a motley crew. We chose you because of the patents you brought and your talent. Fit extended an olive branch to you three years ago, but you refused it yourself."

"You don't have to give up this arena where you can shine just because you saw me here. Our CEO has seriously considered your offer of a three million annual salary, and he has agreed."

Shao Yan finally turned around and looked at Han Yifei with a hint of surprise.

"Aren't you the president of Honda Fit?"

A shadow of gloom flashed across Han Yifei's eyes.

"In the past, if you were less skilled, you had to bow your head. Our CEO was not keen on being in the public eye, so I served as the company's CEO."

Shao Yan never met the highest authority figure in Fit. Han Yifei brought her into the company, and her position was surprisingly that of the vice president of Fit.

Are you sure you're not mistaken?

Han Yifei shrugged: "I also hope it's a mistake. It was the boss's order. You're amazing, bringing in military-grade software worth a billion. The boss said that he can't give you his position, but he'll reserve the second-highest position for you. President Shao, I'll need your guidance and support from now on."

Han Yifei's words were laced with more than just a hint of bitterness.

Shao Yan looked at the spacious and bright office, which was nearly 200 square meters, and sighed.

Grandpa Meng knew her capabilities, but he had never treated her like this before.

The so-called 10% stake in the Meng family is more like a mirage. She has been working for the Meng family for the past three years, and when it comes to her own turn, she might end up with nothing. It's incredibly ironic.

"Mr. Shao, just let me know if you need anything. Your assistant and secretary will be here as soon as possible in the next couple of days. Also, there's a business banquet at the company tomorrow night that you must attend, and I will be going with you."
