Lord, give up! Madam has too many vests

Chapter 284

Chapter 284 When Yan Lan finished reviewing the documents, it was already noon. She stretched, and Qin Shi pushed open the door and walked in, his suit jacket draped over his arm, his shirt collar slightly open. "You've been working all morning, let's go out for lunch." For Yan Lan's sake, he had to stay at the company and help her process a mountain of documents. Yan Lan smiled slightly, "Let's go to the No. 1 Middle School area for lunch. I want to go to the small clinic this afternoon." She didn't like staying in the bright and clean office; she preferred the smell of Chinese medicine and disinfectant in the small clinic. The small clinic had been renovated and could reopen. The couple walked out of the office together, and just as they reached the elevator, the elevator doors opened with a "ding." Liu Jinnian and Yan Xue were standing inside the elevator, along with several Qin's employees. Yan Lan and Qin Shi went inside. Yan Lan casually said, "Assistant Liu, I won't be in the office this afternoon. If you have any documents to sign, leave them on your desk. I'll handle them tomorrow." Upon hearing this, Yan Xue deliberately raised her voice, "Yan Lan, the company's been so busy lately, and you're trying to slack off? Brother Jin Nian has been working overtime these past few days. What kind of general manager are you? How are the other employees supposed to work properly if you're like this?" After she finished speaking, the other employees in the elevator began to whisper among themselves, their eyes filled with dissatisfaction as they looked at Yan Lan. Qin Shi sneered, his tone laced with sarcasm, "Yan Xue, you're just the deputy head of a government inspection team. How the general manager works is none of your business." His voice wasn't loud, but it was exceptionally clear in the elevator, and Yan Xue's face instantly turned ashen. She glared fiercely at Qin Shi, her eyes flashing with anger. She gritted her teeth, her tone still firm, "I'm here to supervise the work. If I see someone not working properly and affecting the project's progress, of course I have to intervene!" Her voice was somewhat sharp, as if trying to intimidate the other person with her imposing manner. Yan Lan smiled slightly; Yan Xue's anger had no effect on her. "My work is finished; I don't need to work overtime. As for working overtime, it's because of inefficiency. Qin's has always adopted a flexible work system; you can leave as long as the work is completed. Before criticizing someone, Deputy Team Leader Yan, you should carefully understand Qin's rules and regulations." Her voice was crisp and powerful, each word like a blow to Yan Xue's self-righteousness. As Yan Lan spoke, the elevator doors in front of her opened with a "ding." She smiled slightly, walked out, and ignored Yan Xue. The elevator doors slowly closed, and Yan Xue's face became even more unpleasant. Her face was flushed with anger, and she stomped her foot angrily, saying indignantly, "Outrageous! She's still trying to argue! How could a college graduate be so efficient? Those documents are so complicated; how could she and Qin Shi possibly finish processing them? She must be lying!" You all heard that. I'm going to check Yan Lan's work progress right now. If she lies again, our inspection team will definitely not let her off the hook! "As Yan Xue spoke, she pressed the elevator button forcefully, and the elevator doors quickly opened with a "ding." Yan Xue, along with several members of the inspection team, rushed into Yan Lan's office. Sure enough, the desk was piled high with documents, folders neatly arranged, appearing orderly. Yan Xue picked up several documents and quickly flipped through them, her movements somewhat hurried, as if she wanted to immediately find something to use against Yan Lan. Liu Jinnian stood to the side, a hint of helplessness on his face. He sighed and also picked up a document to glance at. Upon seeing it, his expression changed slightly, a flash of surprise in his eyes. He handed a document to an employee beside him, someone from the audit department; this document contained data that needed to be reviewed. The audit department employee took the document and examined it carefully. He meticulously checked every number, and after a while, he looked up, a look of astonishment on his face, his tone incredulous, "These data are all correct, and the general manager's opinions are also accurate." Yan Xue was stunned upon hearing this, staring in disbelief at the pile of documents on her desk. These documents had been processed by Yan Lan and Qin Shi in half a day, while it would have taken Liu Jinnian a week to review them, even with the help of several senior employees. She picked up another document and examined it carefully, finding each one flawlessly processed. Yan Xue's expression grew increasingly grim, her eyes filled with panic, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing. Holding the documents in his hand, Liu Jinnian's usually refined face showed a hint of unease for the first time. He had initially thought Yan Lan was merely going through the motions, but the reality before him was a harsh slap in the face. Liu Jinnian certainly didn't believe that Yan Lan or Qin Shi had accomplished all this on their own. He was convinced that behind them was a highly efficient team, with Madam Qin providing covert support. After all, the Qin family's foundation was deep, and Madam Qin's methods of manipulation behind the scenes were even more sophisticated—Liu Jinnian knew this all too well. He stood before his desk, his gaze sweeping over the documents. He knew that it wouldn't be easy for him and his father alone to bring down Madam Qin; he needed stronger external support. Liu Jinnian raised his head, a resolute glint in his eyes. He had to contact Blackstone Capital as soon as possible. Blackstone Capital wielded enormous influence in the financial world; if he could gain their support, he might have a chance to seize control of the Qin family. His gaze hardened, a cold smile playing on his lips… Qin Shi drove to the city's No. 1 High School, arriving close to 12:30. The small shops lining the streets were already bustling, the air filled with the aroma of various dishes. The two entered a small restaurant nearby. As soon as they entered, Yan Lan's gaze fell on a table in the corner, where several familiar faces sat. Liu Shiyu, wearing a light blue dress, her long hair flowing over her shoulders, was smiling brightly, with Song Chi sitting beside her. They were eating there with several classmates from the city's No. 1 High School; the table was laden with various dishes, everyone chatting and laughing, the atmosphere lively. Yan Lan was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes. Since that talent show, Song Chi and Liu Shiyu had transferred schools one after the other, and Yan Lan hadn't seen them for a long time. She turned and walked to another empty table, with Qin Shi following behind her. The two found a seat by the window, and Song Chi and Liu Shiyu's gazes fell on them. Upon seeing this, Liu Shiyu stood up and walked over.
