When dealing with manipulative b*tch, you’ve gotta use tricks that are even b*tchier.

After Jiyeon dropped the bucket on Yeonjung twice, she thought about getting angry but she didn’t for fear of damaging her image because there were so many people watching.

But Yeonjung wasn’t an idiot. She quickly realized that this person did it on purpose and thus held a grudge from then on. Whenever she encountered something that had to do with Jiyeon, she’d always open her mouth and make a few ridiculing comments.

She was too lazy to care about her.

She simply thought of her as a fly buzzing in her ears.

Time passed little by little, but the president still wasn’t back yet.

Xuanyi's promotion came through, though.

She became the deputy manager, her salary instantly doubling.

At the same time, there was indeed another person who received a promotion—

Yoo Yeonjung.

This person was directly promoted from an ordinary employee to the team leader of Jiyeon’s group.

In reaction to this result, except for Chengxiao and Jiyeon who already knew about this news for a while, everyone else was quite surprised.

But there was nothing that could be done. After all, the decision came from the top, so everyone could do was congratulate her.

She followed along and clapped a few times, then returned to finish the work at hand. When she looked up again, she saw Yeonjung carrying a bag of fruits to share with everybody.

There were a lot of things inside, such as apples, peaches, and pears, all of which were big and juicy.

But this person just had to put her hand in and choose for a long time before finally taking out two small and deflated apricots and placing them on her desk.

Yet she still put on a pretentious smile and said to her, “They’re incredibly sweet, you should try them soon.”

“I bought them just for you~”

Oh, that gave her even more of a reason to not eat them.

She smiled and placed the two apricots on the side, then earnestly thanked her, her eyes curving into a crescent and her smile especially sweet.

She couldn’t help but scorn on the inside, aren’t you trying to sour me to death?

Seeing how she still appeared good-tempered, Yeonjung didn’t see the result she wanted and suddenly retracted her smile unhappily before quickly walking away.

She seemed to be muttering something and Jiyeon roughly made it out, thinking that she probably said “just you wait”.

Seems like she was going to seek revenge against her.

Jiyeon sighed then picked up her cup of coffee and took a sip. She was indeed impulsive at that time. When she heard that person open her mouth to slander her boss, she couldn’t help but get angry and react in such an immature manner.
