Lisa looked at Krystal coldly. Although she couldn’t do anything to Krystal now, she would not forget what Krystal did.
“Good evening.”
Krystal was the first to speak and walked to the opposite side of Lisa. She smiled at Jennie whose eyes were red and swollen.
Jennie was frightened. She pulled Lisa’s arm and hid behind Lisa.
Lisa didn’t want to waste her breath with her. She turned to Soyeon and said, “Sister Xu, let’s go!”
“Okay.” Soyeon remained indifferent as if nothing had happened.
When Lisa and the other two walked to the elevator, Krystal caught up with them again. The six people who entered the elevator stood on both sides of the elevator.
“How do you feel about this project?”
Krystal said with a smile, as if they were not enemies but just ordinary colleagues chatting.
Soyeon frowned. Although she knew that Krystal was arrogant and domineering, she had never experienced it before because the two of them had not interacted much.
Lisa did not even bother looking at Krystal. While looking at the elevator door, she said, “Thanks to you, it’s been very challenging.”
As soon as these words were said, Krystal choked.
Krystal chuckled and said, “That’s good. If it’s not challenging, it won’t be fun if you win.”
Both of them had used the word ‘challenging’, but meant different things. Lisa was referring to Krystal ruining their documents, while Krystal was referring to Lisa being their stumbling block.
The corners of Lisa’s lips curled up, and battle intent rose in her eyes.
“You’re right. After eliminating the traps set by the enemy, the fruits of victory will be sweeter.”
As she said that, Lisa turned around and gave Krystal a mocking smile. “Do you know what is the most exciting thing in this world?”
Faced with Lisa’s sudden question, Krystal cautiously did not answer, while Soyeon was also thinking about the answer to the question.
Lisa and Krystal looked at each other, and their smiles gradually dissipated.
“In this world, the most exciting thing is to take away what your enemy wants the most, and then watch them roar in anger and helplessness.”
Soyeon was impressed by Lisa’s powerful words, and her hesitation about her from before instantly disappeared.
And the elevator seemed to be responding to Lisa. As soon as she finished speaking, the elevator rang, and the door opened.
The lights in the lobby dazzled. When they landed on Lisa, she seemed to have become the focus of everyone’s attention.
Lisa walked out of the elevator first. Soyeon and Jennie followed her, leaving Krystal and the other two behind.
...
There were a total of ten people having dinner in one of the hotel’s private dining room tonight, and six of the seats were taken up by the sales department alone. This showed how important the sales plan was to compete for the Lin Group project.
Only after some time after Lisa arrived did Krystal finally arrive. She looked at her two teammates, not knowing what had happened.
Actually, it was a funny story. Krystal was quite startled by Lisa earlier and actually took the elevator down to the next floor, which was why she arrived much later than Lisa and the others.
The first to arrive was a group of three men and one woman, who were from different departments of the company. They had never interacted with Krystal and Lisa, so naturally, they did not know about their differences.
The four of them first gave them the information that the sales department needed, and then began to introduce themselves.
Soyeon skimmed through the information a few times and confirmed that there was no problem.
Soyeon had also confirmed with CEO Song earlier that they were not under the Deputy General Manager.
Throughout the meal, Lisa felt that it was rather bland.
It was not that the food was bad, but rather because she was eating with someone like Krystal.
Krystal kept talking about work. One moment she was talking about how hard it was to organize the information, the next she was talking about how they could cooperate. After all, whoever signed the contract would be giving the company profits.
It was pretty awkward. Lisa did not bother to cut in, neither did her teammates nor the other group.
Perhaps they also felt that the atmosphere was tensed, so the four of them did not speak at all during the second half of the meal. The entire room was full of Krystal talking non-stop, and her two lackeys supporting her.
When they returned to their room, two similar sighs sounded.
Soyeon looked at the two of them and could not help but chuckle.
Meanwhile, Lisa was stunned by Soyeon’s smile.
When Jennie raised her head, it was already too late.
She missed Soyeon’s smile. All she saw was Lisa staring blankly at something.
