After breaking off the engagement, she became the CEO's favorite

Time gradually came to the day of Shen’s annual meeting.

Because of Lu Keke's invitation, everyone's attention gradually shifted away from revising the manuscript and they began to talk about the outfits for the annual meeting.

Xu Yuan and Qin Qin were very conflicted about this.

Shen's Construction is the leading enterprise in South City, so Shen's annual meeting will not be a small gathering.

Of course, we can’t just dress the same as we do at work as Yan Xiaoli said.

After thinking for a long time, the two finally decided to rent a dress and gather two girls from Group 2 to do a "group purchase".

Lu Ranran politely declined Xu Yuan's group buying invitation.

"My relative gave me a set when I graduated, and it's just what I need."

The large pile of clothes that Xiao Li sent had not been unpacked yet. Lu Ranran felt it was a bit of a waste when she thought about it.

Xu Yuan looked regretful.

Although one less person would mean more money, she didn't force it.

Shen Construction’s annual meeting is not held at the end of the year, but in the middle of the year.

It is said that because there are no statutory holidays in July and August, they found a reason to give everyone a holiday.

The annual meeting will be held on Friday night, and the entire company will have a day off next Monday under the pretext of the annual meeting.

But having said that, no one really cares about the reality. Corporate slaves are the most flexible and changeable creatures.

For example, Lu Ranran and others.

We all belong to Wu Zhi's screenwriting studio. Officially, the working hours are 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., but the time for revising and discussing manuscripts is flexible.

Some people write fast and are not challenged by Wu Zhi, so they can leave early. Some people just can't pass the manuscript, so they can only overcome it by themselves, over and over again.

I finally waited until the day of Shen’s annual meeting.

With still an hour left before the end of get off work, Lu Keke and everyone in Group 2 left early.

I don’t know how Lu Keke did it. Wu Zhi even generously extended the DDL of the second group.

However, the group that did not have this buff was delayed until 6:30 by Wu Zhi's temporary screenwriter discussion.

Just when everyone was hurriedly packing up and preparing to take a taxi to join in the fun, Wu Zhi specially found Lu Ranran.

"Can you revise this book today?"

"No, within an hour?"

Xu Yuan and the other two responded by packing up more slowly, for fear that Wu Zhi would come looking for them.

Lu Ranran frowned, her tone slightly displeased.

"So anxious?"

Wu Zhi looked a little strange, but his tone was still very firm.

"Yes, the sooner the better."

With previous experience, Lu Ranran roughly guessed who instructed it.

However, he did not show any dissatisfaction on his face, and just calmly narrated:

"Editor Wu, you are also a screenwriter, you should also know that it is impossible to complete the revision within an hour."

"If you insist..."

Lu Ranran looked straight at Wu Zhi with cold eyes.

"I can only think that you are deliberately making things difficult for me."

Wu Zhi's mouth twitched, and he responded stiffly:

"Ran Ran, you have to know that you were specially recruited because you won the award."

"My requirements may be a bit high, but it's also for your own good."

"Now that you say that, I'm really a little disappointed..."

After Wu Zhi finished speaking, he shook his head in frustration, his eyes filled with sadness of being betrayed.

Lu Ranran felt it was funny in her heart but looked very aggrieved.

"Editor Wu, how can you say that?"

"I came here for your fame, but every day I write about things I'm not good at."

"Now I really suspect that you are just using my gimmick to increase the fame of the studio and have never thought about training me."

"I turned down so many invitations, but I didn't expect this to be the result."

At the end, Lu Ranran choked up and reached out to wipe away the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes.

Wu Zhi looked surprised and opened his mouth to say something.

Before that, Lu Ranran picked up her backpack, covered her face and left in a huff.

As for PUA, who doesn’t know how to do it?

Lu Ranran got on the elevator and quickly sent a message to Xiao Li.

During the short period of "confrontation" with Wu Zhi, Xu Yuan and the others quickly took a taxi and left.

Yan Xiaoli posted a message in the group chat: “May all your luck be with you.”

Lu Ranran said frankly that she had already gotten on the elevator and was away from Wu Zhi.

The three people lined up and gave a "thumbs-up".

"But aren't you afraid that Wu Zhi will find fault with you? After all, you are still working under him."

Xu Yuan was a little worried.

Lu Ranran was stunned when he saw this sentence.

It’s not that I was worried about losing my job, but I was surprised that I was calm inside.

Maybe it’s because his own novel made the list, which gave him confidence?

While I was thinking, the elevator reached the first floor.

The ostentatious Rolls-Royce was already parked in the driveway in front of the building.

Lu Ranran hurried to get into the car, accidentally glanced at the dark patterns on the surface, and didn't think much about it.

In the group chat, her responses were also very open-minded.

"I've said it all, we'll talk about the future later."

The car started, Xiao Li said:

"Ma'am, let's go to the styling studio where we have an appointment."

Lu Ranran responded and leaned back in the chair, closing her eyes to rest.

Speaking of styling, there is a little episode.

Lu Ranran has been a marginal figure in the Lu family since childhood and has rarely attended formal social banquets.

I don't have much experience in dressing.

One month before the annual meeting, after a brief period of confusion, Lu Ranran decided to humbly ask Shen Xiling for advice.

At that time, Shen Xiling was sitting at the desk with a large book spread out on the table.

He leaned back in his chair, the atmosphere was lazy.

"Wear what you normally wear."

"It's just an annual meeting, no big deal."

Lu Ranran’s heart was clamoring.

What is this, a sense of relaxation from a superior?

"That's not good?"

"Will it embarrass you if I'm too casual?"

Lu Ranran still thought he was joking, and was a little angry inside because of his carelessness.

But Shen Xiling smiled gently and explained seriously:

"You are not my decoration. My personal value will not increase or decrease because of you."

"You only need to think about yourself and don't need to worry about me too much."

"As long as it's you, I can accept it."

So, what was supposed to be a simple exchange of opinions ended with Lu Ranran's heart beating faster and running away in panic.

After calming down, Lu Ranran was very dissatisfied.

This guy is so cunning. He says so much, but he still dresses like an ordinary person.

Having said that, Lu Ranran had to admit that Shen Xiling was truly the most suited man she had ever seen.

When I first met him, he was wearing a well-fitting suit, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and a slightly loose collar, revealing a space that made people daydream...

No! I can't think about it anymore!

Lu Ranran patted his head and drove Shen Xiling out of his mind.

He took out his cell phone and started to "order" Xiao Li around without caring that it was already past nine o'clock.

Let’s go back to the day of the annual meeting.

Unlike Lu Ranran who was relaxed, Wu Zhi, who was still in the studio, had an indescribable expression on his face.

Liu Keli hugged Wu Zhi from behind and said softly:

"Why, you didn't stop it?"

Wu Zhi received instructions after Lu Keke announced the invitation to the annual meeting.

He clearly said that he would use all means to stop Lu Ranran in the studio.

But Wu Zhi is a cultured person, if verbal control doesn't work, he really has no other options...

Wait!

Wu Zhi glanced at Lu Ranran's desk and saw a messy draft paper...

Liu Keli felt her husband's change of mood, let go of his hand, looked in the direction of his gaze, and understood almost instantly.

"Are you really going to do this?"

Wu Zhi gritted his teeth and said:

"There's nothing we can do. Without the support of South City Media..."

Upon hearing this, Liu Keli held Wu Zhi's hand tightly and leaned her head gently on his shoulder.

"No matter what, I support you."
