Lu Shaoqi seemed to have guessed that this little girl, Su Mo, did not really give up her evil intentions, so she casually said a few words, leaving the last straw.
"I dare to promise you that as long as Xiao Nanye knows what you are thinking, he will definitely punish you. Not only will he lock you up and spank you, but he will also confiscate all your property and make you lose more than good."
This was definitely something that Xiao Nanye would do!
Su Mo thought about it carefully and felt that what the Eldest Miss said was reasonable, so she decisively abandoned this unrealistic idea.
The company set the annual meeting on the day before New Year's Day. A formal party like this in a large enterprise naturally required all employees to be present.
Su Mo originally did not know about this matter, and her leg injury was not yet healed, so it was not suitable for her to go to such a crowded occasion.
However, she didn't expect that someone in the company would call her this morning to remind her to attend the company's annual meeting on time today.
She declined and told the other party that it was not convenient for her injured leg and that she had not prepared a suitable dress, so she could not go.
However, the other party said that this annual meeting was only held within the company. All the people were all on the same side and could dress casually.
Since the other party had already said so, Su Mo was too embarrassed to refuse.
The annual meeting started at ten o'clock. Su Mo got up immediately after receiving the call. Before the cast was removed, those beautiful clothes had nothing to do with her, so she wore her usual clothes and went out.
Ken left with Xiao Nanye this morning, so Su Mo drove out by herself. Fortunately, her injured leg was the left one.
The car drove to the company's underground garage. Su Mo took the elevator up to the lobby on the first floor. After signing up, she received a bracelet with numbers written on it from the front desk and then went to the annual meeting venue.
According to the prompt on the phone, she did not return to the department to report but went directly to the floor of the temporary annual meeting venue.
However, when Su Mo arrived there, she realized that things were different from what she had imagined.
Walking out of the elevator, the corridor was quiet. Unexpectedly, there was no one. However, she could hear the sound of a microphone not far away. It should be the scene of the annual meeting.
Su Mo walked toward the source of the sound until she reached a tightly shut door. She reached out and gently pushed the door open.
The separation of a door was like the difference between heaven and earth. In that instant, she found that she was so out of place.
This was a very large venue. It was usually used to hold a press conference, but now it was set up as a large banquet venue.
There were the overflowing fragrance of flowers, the gorgeous tablecloth, the luxurious red wine and snacks on the table, and the men and women in formal dresses holding wine glasses.
On the dance stage facing the door, the beautiful host was talking to the microphone with a smile. It was at this time that Su Mo came in.
Because of her sudden appearance, the host on stage was a little surprised, and the voice from the microphone suddenly stopped.
At the same time, the hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at Su Mo in unison. Other than surprise, there was more disdain in their eyes.
The annual meeting had actually started a long time ago, and Su Mo obviously did not know what had happened.
She looked at everything in front of her in a daze. She looked at the well-dressed people. These people might be colleagues in the company, but she did not know any of them.
She thought to herself, "Didn't the girl on the phone say that the party is just within the company and everyone was dressed very casually?
"Why do the clothes and jewelry of these people look as if they are big stars who are going to walk the red carpet?
"Why is what I see now completely different from what I heard over the phone?"
No one could answer her doubts. At this moment, Su Mo obviously did not know how much liveliness her appearance brought to this year-end banquet.
Because of her appearance, almost everyone was now curious about her identity. Pairs of judging eyes looked at the intruder in the middle and the walking stick she held under her arm.
"Who is this woman? She dares to be late for the company's annual meeting. She couldn't have any part in the year-end bonus this time!"
"Which department is she from? She looks pretty good, but it's a pity that she's a cripple!"
"So, god is the fairest. When he gives you a good face, maybe he will do something to other parts of your body."
They started to whisper to each other in twos and threes. Amidst the discussions, one could vaguely hear laughter.
In the face of the mocking eyes, Su Mo was very embarrassed.
Right now, it was still five minutes away from ten. Logically speaking, the annual meeting should not have officially begun yet, but why did she feel that the time she appeared was not suitable?
Things seemed to be completely different from what she thought. Su Mo could not face the doubts of so many pairs of eyes. She felt that the most important thing to do now was to leave this place first.
Just as she turned around to leave, a familiar ringtone sounded in her pocket. Su Mo took out her mobile phone and pressed the answer button. A familiar and pleasant voice sounded from the other side, "Where are you?"
At this moment, hearing his voice, Su Mo actually felt a little wronged. The heat in her eyes slowly rose. "Xiao Nanye."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Nanye frowned when he heard her strange voice.
Su Mo sniffed and said, "I am in the company. The annual meeting is not fun at all. I want go back." If he listened carefully, he could hear that her voice was somewhat different from usual.
The other side was silent for a while as if he was considering something. Then he said, "Wait there obediently. I'll come to find you now."
Before Su Mo could respond, the other side had already hung up the phone.
When she heard that Xiao Nanye was about to come over, Su Mo actually felt at ease in her heart. She didn't know when it started, but it was as if as long as he was here, it would make her feel at ease.
She looked down at her mobile phone. After hesitating for a moment, she decided to go upstairs to find him. The atmosphere here was very strange. She really could not stay here any longer.
Just as Su Mo was about to leave, she heard someone call her name from behind. "Miss Su, wait a moment."
She turned around to look at the person who had arrived. The woman was wearing a strapless white dress. When she smiled, there was a dimple on her face. She was very cute.
Su Mo still had an impression of this girl. She was Lin Xueyi, one of the four great beauties of Xiao Nanye's secretariat. There were too many people in the crowd just now that Su Mo did not see her.
However, they didn't have any interactions in the past. Su Mo did not know why Lin Xueyi had chased her out and called out to her, "Miss Lin, is there something you need me for?"
Lin Xueyi smiled and said, "When I saw you just now, I thought I was wrong. I didn't expect it was really you. How come you arrived so late? The annual meeting has already started for a while."
Perhaps because of Xiao Nanye, Su Mo also had a good impression of Lin Xueyi, so she smiled at her and said, "Maybe I got the time wrong."
Lin Xueyi also noticed her walking stick and touched it curiously. "I heard from Sister Lisa that you were injured. Are you feeling better now?"
Su Mo did not stop her. She smiled and said, "It's much better now. I can remove the cast in a few days."
"Really?" Lin Xueyi was also happy for her. "Then won't you be able to come back to work soon?"
Of course, this was also what Su Mo hoped for. She only hoped that everything would go smoothly at that time. "I have been on leave since I just entered the company. I am really sorry."
Lin Xueyi shook her head and said, "Don't say that. You didn't mean to get hurt."
This girl was smart and cute. If it was a different occasion, Su Mo might have chatted with her for a while. However, she did not want to stay in this place for a minute, so she said, "I should go."
"Why are you leaving when you just arrived?"
Lin Xueyi looked puzzled. She took the initiative to walk over and hold Su Mo's hand. "Today is the annual grand gathering of the company. How can you leave?"
It was because this was the annual grand gathering that Su Mo did not want to go in. However, she was too weak and could not resist Lin Xueyi's enthusiasm, so she was pushed and dragged in.
As soon as Su Mo entered, she felt as if she was a lamb that had entered a pack of wolves.
Along the way, almost everyone's gaze stopped on her. That gaze made her feel like she was sitting on pins and needles, making her feel very uncomfortable.
"Miss Lin, I remember that I still have some matters to attend to. I'll be leaving first."
Su Mo tried to leave, but Lin Xueyi held her arm and refused to let her go.
"Don't! How can you be absent on such an important day? And you just joined the company not long ago. Don't you want to take the opportunity to get familiar with your colleagues in the company?"
Su Mo was a little hesitant. It was good to get familiar with her colleagues, but this was not a good time to get in touch with them.
Just now, she noticed that there were a few figures in the group that looked familiar. They seemed to be her colleagues in the office, but the way everyone looked at her was a little strange.
In short, their gazes were not friendly, but Su Mo did not see the round face of Lin Xiaojuan.
While she was hesitating, Lin Xueyi had already made a decision for her. She pulled Su Mo in and said, "Let's go! Since Sister Lisa is not here, let me introduce everyone to you."
Although Lin Xueyi looked delicate and weak, her strength was not small. Su Mo could not resist her, so she had to follow her into the crowd.
Lin Xueyi's identity was originally shining. She was Xiao Nanye's secretary. Usually, there were many people in the company who wanted to curry favor with her. Now, when they saw her coming over, they took the initiative to greet her.
Poor Su Mo only wore a heavy down jacket and stand in the middle of colorful skirts, which was particularly eye-catching.
Someone looked at the clown who dared to break in and said sarcastically, "Xueyi, this 'beauty' beside you is very unfamiliar. Who is she?"
After hearing this, Lin Xueyi looked at Su Mo and smiled. The latter suddenly had a very bad premonition.
Just as Su Mo was about to speak, she heard Lin Xueyi introduce her to the others, "This is Su Mo, a colleague of our jewelry brand's design research and development department, an excellent jewelry designer."
When these people saw Su Mo's dress and style, they guessed that her position in the company was not high, so they were not interested. However, when they saw Lin Xueyi greeting her with a smile and chasing after her after she left, they had some thoughts.
After hearing Lin Xueyi's words, a few of them were a little surprised, and they couldn't help but look at Su Mo.
