After Divorce, I Inherited the Game's Fortune

Chapter 481 419, half a year and one year! (Seeking monthly passes)

Just now, in the elevator, Chen Yan was still talking to Luo Mengyun about last night's incident, telling her to take it as a warning and not to make similar mistakes again.

And then, just like speaking of the devil, he appears!

The moment the elevator doors opened, they saw Song Xuejiao, the very person they had just been discussing.

But that wasn't even the main point.

The main point was that she was actually with Zhuang Li, the General Manager of the Human Resources Department, and Zhuang Li's attitude toward her seemed very courteous.

Chen, such a shrewd guy, read something different from this courteous behavior; he discerned a hint of sycophancy from their standing positions and the expression on Zhuang Li's face.

This discovery shocked him greatly. Zhuang Li, as the head of the Human Resources Department, held a very high position within the company. Even in front of the General Manager Wu Dehai, she wouldn't have to act so obsequiously.

But there she was, displaying an obsequious demeanor beside Song Xuejiao, which meant that this woman they had encountered last night was no simple character.

"Luo Mengyun, right??"

Song Xuejiao accurately stated Luo Mengyun's name with a slight curl at the corners of her lips, wearing a tranquil smile.

However, this smile appeared somewhat creepy to Luo Mengyun.

While Luo Mengyun didn't have the same level of perception as Chen, she could tell that Song Xuejiao seemed to be on good terms with Zhuang Li, the General Manager of the company's Human Resources Department.

She couldn't help but think of Chen Yan's warning from last night. Indeed, this woman had connections in the entertainment industry.

Just last night, she had exposed her background, and today that woman had found her way to the company. If Zhuang Li really decided to take action against her, then it would be the end of her career at Maetian Entertainment.

With this thought, Luo Mengyun's face changed dramatically, and she forced a calm smile, "What a coincidence, to think I'd see Sister again so soon!"

Although Luo Mengyun addressed Song Xuejiao as 'Sister' last night and now, the meaning behind the title was completely different.

Last night's 'Sister' had been used to highlight Song Xuejiao's age, implying that Luo Mengyun herself was younger, a sort of catty address.

But now, 'Sister' was a respectful way of addressing her, after all, Zhuang Li, the head of the Human Resources Department, was courteous to her; Luo wouldn't dare be sarcastic!

"Director Song, you know Luo as well?"

Zhuang Li, of course, didn't know about last night's events. While gesturing for Song Xuejiao to enter the elevator, she casually asked.

However, as soon as Zhuang Li spoke, both Chen Yan and Luo Mengyun were once again shocked.

Director Song???

In the company, there weren't many positions referred to as 'Director', and only a few would command such politeness from Zhuang Li, like the Director of the Chairman's Office or the President's Office Director.

But Wu Dehai was a professional manager, a mercenary-like CEO whose influence in the company wasn't particularly strong, so his office director wouldn't likely receive such respect from Zhuang Li.

Therefore, there was only one other possibility!

Song Xuejiao was the Director of the Chairman's Office!!

Coming to this conclusion, Chen Yan swallowed hard, unconsciously, and replayed the scene of his encounter with Song Xuejiao last night in his mind.

Yes, there was no interaction!

They hadn't exchanged a single word, not even a glance.

However, Luo Mengyun was an artist he managed.

If the other party decided to hold last night's incident against him, it wouldn't be considered excessive.

Luo Mengyun's thoughts weren't moving as quickly as Chen Yan's; she was still puzzled over which director Song Xuejiao was.

However, regardless of which director she was, it wasn't good news for Luo. She was just a minor artist with shallow company roots and couldn't afford such turmoil.

"I don't know her!"

While Luo Mengyun was still racking her brain, Song Xuejiao calmly responded.

Huh?

I don't know her??

Upon hearing Song Xuejiao's reply, Zhuang Li and Luo Mengyun were both momentarily stunned.

As the head of Human Resources, Zhuang Li quickly realized that Director Song wasn't saying she didn't recognize Luo Mengyun, but rather she was declaring her stance.

Luo Mengyun, on the other hand, looked uncomfortable, understanding though more slowly than Chen Yan, that Song Xuejiao was drawing a line with her in front of Zhuang Li, or even conveying a message that she was in conflict with Luo Mengyun.

"Sister, I drank too much last night, and I might have crossed some lines with my words. If I've caused any misunderstandings, I apologize to you now!"

Luo Mengyun was no fool. With the HR head Zhuang Li being so courteous to Song Xuejiao, the latter was certainly not someone Luo could provoke. Therefore, without hesitating, Luo quickly started to soften her tone.

"We met last night?"

"I don't remember!"

Song Xuejiao replied coldly, then looked up at the floor numbers on the elevator, clearly not intending to continue any conversation with Luo Mengyun.

With a "ding," the elevator door opened.

The Artists Department's 11th floor had been reached.

Chen Yan quickly pulled Luo Mengyun, who still looked like she wanted to say something, then warmly greeted Zhuang Li and Song Xuejiao before leaving the elevator in somewhat of a fluster.

Once the elevator door was closed.

Chen Yan, with a dark face, said to Luo Mengyun: "What I said last night came true, didn't it!"

"I've repeatedly told you not to offend people lightly. Now look, you can forget about your future work!"

At these words, Luo Mengyun, already unsure of what to do, nearly collapsed to the floor.

"Chen, you have to help me this time!"

"It's not that big of a deal, just speak some good words for me!"

"And, which director is she exactly?"

Luo Mengyun was still clueless about Song Xuejiao's exact position and was thinking that if the position wasn't too high, there was still plenty of room for maneuvering in this situation.
