264: Su Yue was targeted

...

"Su Yue, the new project partner specifically requested you to do the market research."

Su Yue took the contract handed to him by the Team Leader and nodded, "Okay, no problem."

It wasn't Su Yue's first time doing this kind of work, and he had a very effective method for market research.

The Team Leader also knew about the rumors of Su Yue and Lan Zijun's close relationship, and since President Lan had never clarified them, he knew that Su Yue was special to Lan Zijun.

He also wanted to do Su Yue a favor, so he carefully leaned into his ear and asked, "Su Yue, did you offend someone recently?"

Su Yue was a bit confused at first, "What? No, I didn't."

However, the Team Leader had seen this kind of workplace suppression many times and was very familiar with it. Seeing that Su Yue didn't seem to realize the problem, he carefully reminded him.

"Tasks specifically assigned to a particular person like this are usually done when the other party wants to mess with someone. And this kind of market research is the easiest way for the client to be dissatisfied. Su Yue, are you sure you haven't offended anyone recently?"

After the Team Leader's reminder, Su Yue finally understood why he would say that.

Su Yue frowned and pondered. As for whether he had offended anyone, honestly, Su Yue felt he had offended quite a few people, but he had never taken those people to heart and therefore didn't pay them any mind.

Moreover, this was his job. Even if he knew the other party was deliberately messing with him, he couldn't directly refuse.

However, Su Yue wasn't someone who would passively accept things. Since he knew the other party was targeting him, he definitely wouldn't just sit back and wait.

Knowing the Team Leader's good intentions, Su Yue was also very grateful to the Team Leader, "Thank you for the reminder, Team Leader. I'll think carefully about whether I've offended anyone recently."

The Team Leader was very happy to see that Su Yue believed his words.

He also wanted to build a good relationship with Su Yue. After all, Su Yue was now a favorite of Lan Zijun. Who wouldn't want to gain Su Yue's trust and have him help with their promotion?

Therefore, the Team Leader just waved his hand nonchalantly, "It's nothing. I just told you my thoughts. I was worried you'd think I was being nosy."

"Since you know yourself that something is off about this, I hope you can figure out what's really going on, so that person doesn't really mess with you later and cause mistakes in your work."

The Team Leader believed that in Lan Zijun's eyes, this deal wasn't that important, because it was just a small business deal. Which deal that Lan Zijun signed wasn't in the hundreds of millions?

It was just that this person wanted to mess with Su Yue but wasn't willing to spend a lot of money. It was truly laughable.

On the contrary, if someone were to mess with Su Yue using this deal, given how much President Lan cared about Su Yue, she would definitely not let it go.

Su Yue thanked the Team Leader again, took the cooperation details, and returned to his workstation.

Li Haoyang came over to Su Yue's side and saw the contract in his hand, a little surprised, "Su Ge, how did you end up doing market research?"

Su Yue had been with the company for several years, and he hadn't done such minor tasks for a long time. He didn't expect to see Su Yue doing something only interns would do today.

Su Yue shrugged helplessly, "The client requested it, so I can only do as they say."

Li Haoyang's eyes immediately lit up, "Su Ge, are you being targeted? Do you need my help?"

Li Haoyang had always admired Su Yue, but Su Yue had always been busy with his own things and never asked him for help. Every time Su Yue could let him help, he was very happy, feeling that he was recognized by Su Yue.

Su Yue looked at the obvious excitement in Li Haoyang's eyes, feeling a bit speechless.

Why did he feel like Li Haoyang was so excited after finding out he was being targeted? Did he really want to be his appendage?

Su Yue rolled his eyes irritably, "Buzz off."

Li Haoyang immediately showed a wronged expression, "Su Ge, I'm really capable. Just let me see who wants to offend our Su Ge."

Su Yue directly hit Li Haoyang's head with the document in his hand, reminding him of his self-positioning in the company.

"What are you talking about? I'm just a small employee. How could I have the ability to offend a big Boss who runs a company like this? As a worker, I can only silently endure the client's exploitation."

However, Li Haoyang didn't believe that Su Yue looked down on himself so much. He pouted and whispered, "You old geezer, I don't believe you."

Li Haoyang intuitively felt that Su Yue was a big shot, but he had no direct evidence.

Su Yue also heard Li Haoyang's muttering, but he didn't pay it any mind and obediently began to complete his work.

This company was called Zhu Jiawang Co., Ltd. The moment he saw the name, Su Yue knew who wanted to mess with him.

This person was that toad who wanted to pursue Lin Jia.

He didn't expect that after he publicly slapped his face, he would come to the company to mess with him.

However, Su Yue didn't take him too seriously. People like this were like that; the more you cared about him, the more he would jump around. Anyway, he just needed to complete his task obediently.

The research work wasn't complicated. For an experienced employee like Su Yue, it wasn't difficult at all. Soon, he sent his research report to the other party.

They had a group for their cooperation, and Su Yue sent his research report to the other party in this group.

However, soon a man with a heavily photoshopped face, looking like an AI face, directly started cursing in the group.

"Is this the capability of your Far View (Yuantu)? What the heck is this research? Do you even know how to do research? Didn't I tell you I wanted you to find out how many people in the market would choose our family?"

"You can't even do this little thing right. What do you do all day? If you can't do it, get the hell out of here and stop wasting my time."

Because Su Yue knew that with that narrow-minded person's personality, he definitely wouldn't let him off easily, he was relatively calm facing his direct insults and even explained calmly to the other party.

"Zhu Zong, I have already summarized the requirements you mentioned in the document. If you are illiterate, I can specifically screenshot it for you to see."

The chat box instantly fell silent.

The Team Leader, who was initially worried that Su Yue would feel wronged by the other party's insults and wanted to check on him when he saw the other side really curse Su Yue, was instantly relieved.

Who knew that the next second Su Yue would directly publicly slap the face of the person who wanted to cause trouble? The Team Leader immediately felt completely at ease and even wanted to praise Su Yue in the group for being great.

However, the Team Leader also knew that he absolutely couldn't do such a thing, otherwise, Zhu Zong would target not just Su Yue, but him as well. He was just a small employee and didn't dare to provoke such a big Boss.

Due to the humility of a worker, although the Team Leader also felt very satisfied with Su Yue's retort, he could only play it safe in the group.

Su Yue saw that the Team Leader had come to find him and also saw that due to his identity, he could only bite the bullet and appease Zhu Hua, who was about to explode with anger.

However, the Team Leader didn't say that he shouldn't talk back to the client like that, so Su Yue also understood the Team Leader and followed up on his words.

For a while, the group was very lively.

However, when had Zhu Hua ever suffered such a grievance? The moment he reacted, he once again @Su Yue and directly cursed him.

"@Su Yue, you little employee, how dare you be so arrogant in front of me? Who gave you the nerve? You must apologize to me today, otherwise, I won't do this deal!"

"If you stay at Far View (Yuantu), our Zhu family will never cooperate with Far View (Yuantu)!"

The Team Leader was still by Su Yue's side. After seeing Zhu Hua's words in the group, he instinctively took a sharp breath.

This time, things had really escalated.

The Team Leader looked at Su Yue with some worry, "Su Yue, do you want to apologize to him? I know the other party went too far, but this threat..."

The Team Leader was now unsure if Lan Zijun would still protect Su Yue. Although the cooperation brought by the Zhu family this time wasn't large, the Zhu family still had a high status in the City.

Now the young master of the Zhu family had directly stated that as long as Su Yue was there, their Zhu family would not cooperate with Far View (Yuantu).

If that were the case, then Far View (Yuantu) would miss out on a lot of business.

He didn't know whether Lan Zijun valued Su Yue more or the cooperation with the Zhu family.

For a moment, the Team Leader even felt sorry for Su Yue.

Who would like to be compared with capital? After all, anyone with a clear head would choose capital. It was hard on Su Yue; he clearly worked so hard, but ended up being targeted by the other party.

Now, he even had to make the company choose between him and the cooperation. The person on the other side clearly didn't want to give Su Yue a chance to survive.

He didn't know how Su Yue had offended the other party, who was so ruthless in trying to destroy Su Yue.

Su Yue also became annoyed when he saw Zhu Hua's words.

He wasn't annoyed because he might be fired. After all, he now had enough money to retire, and he wasn't worried about starving to death without a job.

It was just that he didn't like being threatened like this, and having his research report, which he had worked so hard on for so long, devalued as worthless because of a single sentence from the other party.

He still had great confidence in his ability and knew that his research report was fine. The problem was this toad who hadn't even looked at it and was just blindly attacking everyone.

Now, he might even lose the job he had worked at for many years because of this toad's selfishness. This made him feel extremely displeased.

However, seeing the concern on the Team Leader's face, he kindly comforted him.

"I'm fine, Team Leader. I won't apologize to this big fat pig. An animal doesn't deserve my apology."

The Team Leader agreed with Su Yue's statement but was still worried that Su Yue's actions would cost him his job.

"But Su Yue, if you really offend Zhu Zong, it will be difficult for you to stay in the company afterward. Is that really okay?"

Su Yue also knew that he definitely couldn't compete with the cooperation with the Zhu family and understood what the Team Leader said, but now he didn't want to suffer Zhu Hua's insults for no reason.

"It's okay, I know what I'm doing."

After saying that, Su Yue directly retorted to Zhu Hua in the group, "Calling you a pig makes you proud, huh? But then again, how could a pig understand human language?"

"I've seen people like you who come out and jump around before their brains are fully developed today. I now completely understand that there's a wall between humans and animals. I don't want to talk to single-celled organisms. That's it."

After typing these two lines, Su Yue directly left the group.

The Team Leader watched Su Yue confront capital from start to finish by his side, and the feeling of watching the drama unfold live was incredibly satisfying.

It was just that when he saw Su Yue starting to pack his things on his desk, he also panicked.

He widened his eyes and stepped forward to stop Su Yue, who had already picked up a box and was preparing to leave, "Su Yue, what are you doing!"

Su Yue was very calm about leaving, "I angered the Zhu family today. It's definitely not suitable for me to stay in the company anymore. I don't need to make things difficult for the company, I'll just leave on my own."

Li Haoyang had just finished reading the gossip on the company forum and saw that Su Yue wanted to leave, so he immediately stepped forward to stop Su Yue.

"Su Ge! You can't leave!"

Li Haoyang hugged Su Yue tightly. Tears actually appeared on his big, square face, and he didn't know if he was acting or genuinely emotional.

It was one thing for Li Haoyang to be touchy-feely with him usually, but now he was being hugged tightly by Li Haoyang, coupled with his reluctant tears, making it look exactly like Su Yue had betrayed him and was acting like a Scumbag (scumbag). Su Yue got goosebumps all over.

He irritably shook off Li Haoyang with force and gave him a speechless glare, "Li Haoyang, stop being so touchy-feely with me!"

He didn't know if Li Haoyang had developed some after-effects from being cheated on by his girlfriend. He was originally a perfectly straight man, but now he was getting more and more effeminate.

If Su Yue didn't know that he and Yang Qingmei were really together, he would have really dragged him to see a psychologist.

Li Haoyang saw that Su Yue was angry and immediately put away the playfulness on his face, looking at Su Yue seriously.

"Su Ge, you are not wrong in this matter. You cannot leave."

The Team Leader also persuaded Su Yue from the side, "Yes, Su Yue. We all believe in your ability and believe that your research report definitely meets the other party's requirements. All of this is because the other party is shameless and is targeting you."

Su Yue wasn't swayed by their comfort. He just said calmly, "I know you also want to stand up for me, but the other side is the client right now."

"I've offended the client, and the client even said that as long as I'm here, they will never cooperate with the company. How can I shamelessly stay in the company at a time like this?"

"Anyway, I've already had the satisfaction of cursing the other party. It's normal for me to leave the company now."

Although the Team Leader and Li Haoyang also felt that what Su Yue said made sense, they were unwilling to just watch Su Yue leave the company because of this matter.

Others in the company also knew about this matter and came to Su Yue's position one after another, wanting to know his future plans.

After all, everyone in the company now knew that Su Yue had a special relationship with Lan Zijun, and now Su Yue had directly offended the client.

Whether out of curiosity to watch the show or genuinely worried that Su Yue would be fired because of this, everyone tacitly wanted to see Su Yue's future arrangements.

After all, Su Yue had directly confronted the client, and the client had also explicitly stated that as long as Su Yue was present, their family would never cooperate with Far View (Yuantu).

Anyone with a clear head knew that the other party was deliberately making things difficult for Su Yue, but as the client who held the capital, they wanted to target a small employee. How could others intervene?

Just as Su Yue's workstation was surrounded by people, and everyone was saying words of concern to Su Yue, someone suddenly saw something and exclaimed.
