Resignation Letter

“Don’t worry, President Chen. I’ll definitely do my best.” The negotiation ended rather well. Xing Shu rubbed her sore eyes and booked a flight for eight o’clock at night. When she returned to the office, there were still many people working overtime in the department. Several colleagues surrounded Hu Jie, congratulating her.

Hu Jie’s face was glowing, and the corners of her mouth curled up. The moment she saw Xing Shu, she raised her eyebrows. Xing Shu’s face held an impassive look. She went to Lirong Corporation to get the deal back after Cheng Xingyang’s call—despite knowing that she had been replaced—because she did not want to waste the prospectus that she had burned several sessions of midnight oil for. At the same time, she had also planted a land mine for Cheng Xingyang and the others.

President Chen had agreed to consider the collaboration with Cheng Corporation Group because he was moved by the prospectus. Otherwise, she would not even be able to see President Chen. Fame and fortune were nothing in President Chen’s eyes—what he wanted was sincerity, the personal interests of the thousands of employees under him, and the reputation of the company’s products. Cheng Xingyang had removed her from her position as Manager. When they meet with Lirong Company tomorrow—the land mine buried would explode—she would just sit back and watch the show.

Hu Jie approached Xing Shu 10 minutes later. The arrogance in her eyes could hardly be concealed. “Send me the information about Lirong Corporation later. The Director has already sent me the purchase agreement. I’ll talk to the person-in-charge of Lirong Corporation tomorrow.”

Xing Shu said, “I don’t have it.”

Hu Jie’s face turned pale. “What do you mean?”

Xing Shu snorted. “I said that I don’t have the information. At least, I don’t have the information you want.” She had done the market research personally—they belonged to her, and not the company.

“Xing Shu, don’t blame me for saying these ugly words. You’re just too calculative. No wonder the Director doesn’t like you.” Hu Jie sneered. “But now that the Director isn’t around, I have the final say in the department. If you don’t hand over the information, don’t come to the office tomorrow.” The hubris in Hu Jie’s words was given to her by Cheng Xingyang. She could not help but give a smug smile.

Xing Shu was silent for a moment. She had worked her b*tt off for Cheng Xingyang and now, he mercilessly kicked her aside like trash. Just thinking about it made Xing Shu furious.

Xing Shu said, “It’s not just tomorrow—I won’t be coming to work anymore. Tell Cheng Xingyang that without me, you can forget about the acquisition of Lirong Corporation.”

Hu Jie said, “Haha! Xing Shu, who do you think you are? Without you, the contract signing tomorrow will only be smoother! You want to resign? Whatever! No one will keep you!”

Xing Shu could not be bothered to say anything else and did not want to waste her energy here. Anyway, the land mine had already been buried—she was just waiting for them to court death. The thought of these self-proclaimed elites being put on the spot by President Chen made Xing Shu feel much better.

Did Cheng Xingyang think that she had nowhere to go after leaving Cheng Corporation Group?

He failed to realize one thing—he had only been able to shine among the Cheng family’s juniors all these years because she had racked her brains for him! She wanted to see if Cheng Xingyang could still be so glorious without her!

Meanwhile, Cheng Xingyang kept checking his cell phone. He thought that Xing Shu would take the initiative to apologize to him by tonight. After all, Xing Shu had offended him and could not answer to the Xing family. He snorted coldly and thought to himself that as long as Xing Shu apologized to him and promised not to find trouble with Linlin in the future, he would reluctantly forgive her. After all, Xing Shu was very competent in her job. However, Xing Shu still did not send him an apology message by 10 o’clock at night. Cheng Xingyang felt a little uneasy—things seemed to be getting out of control. However, when he thought of the Xing family’s attitude—they were so eager that they would not hesitate to send Xing Shu naked to his bed—they would not allow Xing Shu to be willful.

At the thought of this, Cheng Xingyang was completely relieved. In any case, Xing Shu had to bow down to him in the end.

At Cheng Corporation Group.

Xing Shu packed her things—printed the resignation letter—and placed it on her desk. Then, she carried the box containing her personal property downstairs. Just as she balanced herself, a dazzling blaze of car headlights blinded her. She raised her hand to block it—narrowed her eyes—and saw the familiar license plate. Her first reaction was that Cheng Lang wanted “it” again—he would not be looking for her otherwise.

The car slowly drove in front of Xing Shu—stopped—and the car door opened. Xing Shu hugged the box and bent down to take a look. Sure enough, Cheng Lang was sitting in the back seat, impeccably dressed. He was as pretty as a picture, but too forbidding.
