He raised his eyebrows, but his expression remained calm. "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news. Right now, Mr. Liang isn't satisfied with the drawings submitted by our entire department. I hope that Bai Lu can amaze the world with a brilliant feat and find a way out for our design department."
Bai Lu returned to her seat and looked at the miscellaneous drawings for a while. Then, she got up and prepared to go to the pantry to get some water.
Actually, she was very clear about her own body now. The unformed fetus in her stomach already made her consider many things before doing anything. Usually, she would drink a cup of coffee at this time, but now she didn't even dare to think about it.
At least, before she made a decision on whether she wanted this child or not, she felt that she had the obligation to put this child first.
"What do you guys think is so shameless that she can walk into our design department so openly?"
Bai Lu had just walked to the door of the pantry when she heard a soft female voice say contemptuously, "I don't even know what she's thinking. You didn't see the look in her eyes just now. Tsk, tsk. That fearless look. She's only good in bed, I don't know what she's so arrogant about."
Bai Lu paused in her steps. She couldn't help but tighten her grip on the cup a little.
It was said that the pantry was the most gossipy place in the entire company. It seemed that this saying was true. Today, she wanted to see for herself how much these women could say about her.
"But it's nothing. He's a man after all. He's always looking for a new chapter of the Tianyuan God Spell. Not to mention a man like Mr. Liang. He'll probably get sick of it after a while. When the time comes, she won't even know how she died. "
"That's right, that's right. I have a relative who has some business dealings with the Liang Clan. Last time, I accidentally heard that Mr. Liang actually has a marriage partner. She seems to also be studying design. She should be back soon after graduation. When that time comes, how will Bai Lu have a place to stand?"
"Really? But some time ago, I heard that Mr. Liang seems to be very close to Yu Shanshan. I don't understand. Mr. Liang is such a handsome man. How could he fall for someone like Bai Lu? "
"I think her eyes must have undergone plastic surgery. That foxy look, one look and you can tell that she specializes in seducing men."
"I think her nose is padded. Last time, I heard that she always used her hand to cover her nose when she sneezed. Could it be that she was afraid of collapsing?"
"So what if it looks good? Wasn't she cheated on by her ex-boyfriend? Do you know Liang Jingxiao's fiancé? He used to be her boyfriend, and it was Liang Jingxiao who opened the back door for her when she entered EC. She couldn't have traded her man for a job, right? "
"Pfft, her ex-boyfriend isn't as good as Mr. Liang. If it were me, I would definitely choose the beam … "
The woman who was spitting saliva suddenly stopped talking.
Bai Lu stood calmly at the door of the pantry with a cup in her hand. She smiled at the room full of women with different expressions. "Sisters, why aren't you continuing? Tell me. If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't have known that the looks my parents gave me would make you so jealous. "
"Haha, Bai Lu, we don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean by jealousy? Don't you think you're too good at flattering yourself? " One of the women was more experienced and had been in the design department for a longer time. Naturally, she wasn't frightened by Bai Lu. She immediately stepped forward and looked at her provocatively. "And what did we say? I don't think we said anything, right? Don't be paranoid. "
Bai Lu smiled and waved the phone in her hand. "Is that so? What a coincidence. I just recorded it, and I was planning to let Mr. Liang listen to it later. You know that Mr. Liang usually doesn't smile, but I heard so many jokes today. I'm sure Mr. Liang will like me even more. When the time comes, you might not be able to keep your jobs. "
The woman in the lead raised her hand and slammed the cup on the coffee table. She said angrily, "Bai Lu, why are you so arrogant? Do you dare to say that you didn't use Mr. Liang to get to your position? Ha! What a joke. What kind of place is EC? You've been a secretary for so many years. To put it nicely, you're a secretary, but to put it bluntly, you're just a waitress. How dare you try to get a foothold in our design department? You're just a country bumpkin. Let's not talk about foreign ink. Even if you did graduate in architectural design, so what? Today's society relies on practical experience. Do you have it? You don't have anything, but you dared to come here and work with us on the design of the municipal building. Why don't you take a look at yourself in the mirror? Have you thought about what you're capable of? "
Her words were so harsh, but Bai Lu didn't even choke.
Her gaze was as straight as an arrow. She looked at the women in the eyes, neither humble nor arrogant. Every word she said was firm and powerful. "You're right. I don't have anything, but at least I won't gossip behind people's backs. That kind of behavior is very tasteless. Of course, it doesn't matter what you say about me. As for whether I'm capable or not, it's not up to you to decide. But I want to remind you that it's okay to talk about me, but don't drag Mr. Liang into it. He's not the kind of person you're talking about. Don't think that you're elevating Mr. Liang by talking about me like that. In fact, you're insulting him. "
After Bai Lu finished speaking in one breath, she turned around and prepared to leave. However, she didn't expect that she would freeze the moment she moved.
At the door of the pantry, Liang Feifan stood with his back to the light. His sexy thin lips were slightly pursed, but there was a slight upward curve. He didn't have much of an expression on his face, but his soul-stirring eyes were staring straight at Bailu at that moment.
Standing behind him was the director of the design department, whose face was pale.
Looking at Li Tingshen's awkward expression, she knew that there was an 80% to 90% chance that Liang Feifan had heard what she said just now.
Her heart trembled, and she felt guilty for no reason.
"Mr. Liang …" Bai Lu tightened her grip on the empty cup in her hand and forced a smile.
However, compared to Bai Lu's uneasiness, the gossipy women behind her were obviously even more uneasy.
The woman who had challenged Bai Lu the most fiercely just now had no confidence at all. She picked up the cup on the coffee table and wanted to leave. "Mr. Liang … Director, that … We'll go back to work first."
The few female employees naturally didn't dare to stay any longer, and they all prepared to leave.
"Don't worry."
Liang Feifan was still standing at the door, as if he didn't intend to let anyone go. He put his hands behind his back, and the warm sunlight shone in through the window behind him. It was as if a layer of golden light had been plated on this extraordinary man, making him look even more dazzling.
He only said these four words, and everyone stood rooted to the ground, not daring to move.
Liang Feifan's tone was indifferent, and it was still the tone that Bai Lu was familiar with. "Since I'm here, there are some things that I have to tell everyone. Because your design department hasn't been able to come up with a design plan that I'm very satisfied with, I asked my secretary to help you. Of course, you are all professionals. Although my secretary graduated from architectural design, as you said, she hasn't been in this field for a long time. I can understand that you're not used to suddenly joining your team. However, I don't think that I, Liang Feifan, have such bad taste in people. Whether Secretary Bai has the ability or not, everyone should look at her design plan before coming to a conclusion. Is there a problem? "
Every word he said was protective of Bai Lu.
And it was so obvious that he was protecting her.
Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat. She gently bit her lip and looked at Liang Feifan gratefully with her watery eyes.
The other female employees were slapping themselves in the face. Their faces were all colorful, and they didn't even dare to look at Liang Feifan's face.
"No, no problem." It was the woman who had just challenged Bai Lu. She was probably angry, but couldn't say anything. "CEO Liang, we … we're going back to work."
Liang Feifan nodded expressionlessly and gestured for them to leave. He turned around and said to Li Tingshen, "Director Li, there are still ten days left. You know that I'm determined to win. If I can't get the city council building, you know very well what to do when the time comes."
Li Tingshen nodded hurriedly. "Yes, Mr Liang. I'll do my best!"
Bai Lu saw that Li Tingshen had also left. She instinctively wanted to leave, but Liang Feifan glanced at her and said, "Secretary Bai, there's a problem with a document. Come with me."
Seeing him turn around and leave, Bai Lu thought for a moment. She put her cup in the pantry and hurried after him.
Liang Feifan went straight back to his office. Bai Lu didn't see Guan Chao when she passed by her office. She guessed that Liang Feifan must have asked him to go out and do something. As she thought of this, she had already walked into the office. She gently closed the door behind her.
She looked up and saw Liang Feifan standing beside his desk. He had his arms crossed and was looking at her.
Bai Lu's eyes flashed. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt that Liang Feifan was looking at her with interest, as if he had just watched a good show.
Bai Lu cleared her throat. She felt uncomfortable under his stare. "Mr Liang, which document is it?"
"It's about thanking you."
Bai Lu was stunned. She looked up and happened to see his smiling eyes. There was a twinkle in his eyes, and it almost made her dizzy.
A document about thanking you?
Bai Lu's head spun twice. She quickly understood that he was waiting for her to thank him.
She took a deep breath and tried her best not to look into his eyes. She forced herself to calm down. "Mr Liang, I'm very grateful to you. I know about Buck. I never thought that I would have such an opportunity in my life. I know that it's all because of you, Mr Liang, who gave me this opportunity. Thank you, Mr Liang. "
If it were any other time, it would've been easy for her to say that, but today, Bailu found herself very nervous. She looked down at her feet when she spoke, and didn't even dare look at him in the eye.
