Chapter 308: If I Were You, I Will Hide Under the Table
“You… Don’t think that I don’t know that Sheng Xiao taught you all these. Otherwise, how can you know all these when you are just a student learning how to cut corpses?”
“It’s impossible, Miss Minghui!” The planning department denied Sheng Minghui’s remark. “You know, we listed out these questions just before the meeting. The crown prince could not have known them in advance!”
“That’s enough!” Grandpa Sheng finally stood up and sneered. “What do you still want to argue about? You are a business graduate from a prestigious university but you can’t even compete with a girl playing with a scalpel! I was so confident that you will be able to lead the planning department. But now I know that it’s a mistake.”
“Grandpa… No, I am not like this…”
“Now that I have seen it or else, I wouldn’t know that the granddaughter I am proud of is like this when she works. You’ve embarrassed me today. Completely.” Grandpa Sheng stood up straight and took a deep breath. “And you still have the face to call me and tell me you were bullied? You know, if I were you, I would hide under the table. ”
“Grandpa…” Sheng Minghui quickly went to grab Grandpa Sheng’s hand. But he shook her hand off his.
“Looks like you are not suitable to work in Huang Yao. So, don’t ever try to get involved with the matters of the planning department again.”
“Grandpa! Please give me one more chance. I will do my best.” Sheng Minghui panicked and quickly grabbed the old man.
Grandpa Sheng did not even look at her, he looked at Mama Sheng instead.
“If she wants to work in Huang Yao, just let her work as a typist or similar job. She must start from the basics.”
A young lady of the Sheng working as a typist?
It’s worse than death itself!
How could she bear with such humiliation?
“Grandpa, you will regret this!”
After she said that, Sheng Minghui ran out of the meeting room, crying. Grandpa Sheng looked sick, but he could not do anything about it. Before he left, he told Mu Qiqi, “Finish the meeting and get everything about the event done. After that, you can return to school.”
“Grandpa, now that Seventh Sister has known so much and she felt that she was humiliated, she will definitely try to get revenge. I don’t mind it, but I can’t guarantee that she will not leak the news in advance.”
“It’s the hard work of the planning and the marketing departments.”
Grandpa Sheng knew that he had to take precaution. After all, he would not take the matter of Huang Yao lightly even though he disliked Mu Qiqi. Besides, this event was very important.
If Sheng Minghui dared to do that, he would disown this granddaughter.
“Rest assured, she won’t be able to do it.”
Having said that, Grandpa Sheng left Huang Yao. Today, he had indeed learnt a lesson after Sheng Minghui greatly embarrassed him. He previously thought that Sheng Minghui would not be that brainless even if she was a smatterer. However, looking at her actions just now, he knew that he had made a stupid decision.
Because after Mu Qiqi’s help, the status of the planning department would improve. Their importance would become obvious.
The minds of the staff started to run wild with imagination and creativity after being stimulated by Mu Qiqi.
Since that’s the case, he could not let Sheng Minghui be the person-in-charge anymore. Meanwhile, he had seen Mu Qiqi’s ability and creativity. These were not something that Sheng Xiao could teach her.
When the staff in the planning department saw that it was Mu Qiqi who was recognized as the capable one, they were very excited.
“Miss Mu, let’s continue the meeting. There is not much time left.”
Mu Qiqi nodded and sat down calmly to continue the meeting.
Sheng Minghui was driving recklessly. And Grandpa Sheng had sent his driver to follow her. Because from now on, her every move must be strictly monitored.
Sheng Minghui detested Mu Qiqi. But there was nothing she could do.
She was humiliated in front of everyone. Moreover, Grandpa was right beside Mu Qiqi. What could she do?
One day, she would cut Mu Qiqi a thousand times!
…
Soon, everyone knew about the incident that had happened in the meeting. They knew that Grandpa Sheng had planned to let Sheng Minghui snatch the credit of Mu Qiqi’s hard work. But after the meeting, the staff in the planning and the marketing departments had sworn their loyalty to Mu Qiqi. If anyone mentioned that the event was planned by Sheng Minghui, they would stand up and fight.
“What kind of a planner is she? If she really is the planner, why did she know nothing when we asked?”
“Is she an orphan adopted by the Sheng family? Why is she so different from the other Shengs? Look at the crown prince. And look at Mama Sheng and the rest. Miss Minghui is like a delinquent in comparison.”
“Exactly. And she even wanted to snatch someone else’s credit. She needs to have the skill to do that.”
Group after group of people in the company laughed at Sheng Minghui.
In the meantime, the rest of the departments were very curious how exciting the event must be that they acknowledge Mu Qiqi’s ability that much.
Anywhere Sheng Xiao passed by, he heard the praises for his little one. He could imagine how she must have shone during the meeting.
After this incident, perhaps Grandpa Sheng would not let Sheng Minghui take over the planning department for the time being.
…
Sheng Minghui did not want to go home, but she had nowhere to go. So, she went to the pub again. And of course, she thought of Shen Ruoyi.
Shen Ruoyi told Sheng Minghui before that she would be defeated by Mu Qiqi again. But she did not expect that the day would come so soon. And Shen Ruoyi also told her that if she helped her to get to know her eldest cousin, she would help her to get rid of Mu Qiqi.
Thinking about how proud Mu Qiqi had been during the meeting today, Sheng Minghui could not bear it anymore. So, she told the bartender, “I want to see your manager.”
“I can say that you came for me too soon. I thought you would hold on for a while longer.” Shen Ruoyi walked out of the inner court and sat beside Sheng Minghui. “What is it this time?”
“Is it true that you will help me if I help you?” Sheng Minghui asked Shen Ruoyi. This time, she had made up her mind to send Mu Qiqi to her doom.
“Of course.” Shen Ruoyi nodded.
“Good. There is one thing I need you to do for me now…”
Mu Qiqi had guessed it right. Sheng Minghui would choose to sacrifice Huang Yao’s event and reputation just to embarrass her.
“That’s not the way. You have to be my matchmaker first. I won’t run away after meeting your brother. Why are you in such a hurry?”
Sheng Minghui thought for a while and nodded. “You said it. If I manage to let you meet my cousin, you must help me with one thing.”
