Chapter 1490: 1489 inciting discord

Samiyi was stunned too. She instantly forgot what she was about to say, and merely watched the group of people at the door silently.

Shang Jin was extremely embarrassed. She covered her face and apologized, “I’m sorry, we didn’t mean to, we were just passing by. It’s our fault for disturbing you; we’ll leave now.”

Since their translators were connected to Bluetooth earpieces, those inside had no idea what she was saying, aware only that she was muttering to herself.

At this point, it seemed necessary for the boss to come out and explain for them. In other companies, employees would handle issues for the boss, but their company was different, the boss resolved the problems.

Tan Rou said, “I’m sorry, we didn’t know you were having a meeting inside. I was just looking for a place to hold a meeting for my employees, and they mentioned there was a conference hall here, so we came over.”

“When we heard voices inside, we didn’t rush in. We planned to wait outside until you had finished your meeting. But the door here seems a bit flimsy, we barely touched it, and it just opened on its own.”

...

“Who believes your nonsense?” Xite, previously chastised by Tan Rou, jumped up and shouted, “You must have wanted to eavesdrop on our conversation, that’s why you came here.”

Tan Rou sneered, “Is there a secret you don’t want me to know? Oh, you were being lectured, are you ashamed?”

“You…” Xite was pointing at Tan Rou, but his hands were secured, and he couldn’t move them at all.

“Does Miss Rou need the conference room?” Samiyi asked, “I’m afraid it’s not available today, you would have to come back tomorrow if you really want to use it.”

Tan Rou was puzzled. Was just firing some people such that it takes so long?

“Oh, alright.” Since the other party didn’t ask her to stay, Tan Rou couldn’t linger there any longer. “Then we’ll be leaving now.”

Just as Tan Rou was about to leave, Samiyi suddenly called out to her, “Miss Rou, do you have time now?”

Tan Rou certainly had time, she wouldn’t be here eavesdropping otherwise, “Yes, I do.”

Samiyi nodded slightly, “Then please stay a bit longer, I have a matter I need your help with.”

Tan Rou also wanted to stay. She was curious about how Samiyi would handle those people. Could it really be that all the aristocratic children would be fired? Then the population in this research building would decrease by a third all at once.

“Okay.” Tan Rou secretly waved at Shang Jin and her group, signaling them to hurry up and leave.

Shang Jin and Lang Yue, feeling awkward about staying longer, quickly scrambled up from the ground and ran off.

“Why do you allow a foreign woman to hear our meeting?” Tan Rou hadn’t even reached Samiyi when she heard Mahri expressing his dissatisfaction, “No, this is an internal matter, outsiders shouldn’t be involved!”

Samiyi scoffed, “Duke Mahri, you are not a researcher either, so you actually have no right to be here today. If Xite hadn’t been injured, do you think I would have allowed you to accompany him here?”

Mahri clenched his teeth in anger, “Princess, aren’t you trusting these foreigners too much? Don’t forget, we are your subjects, these foreigners are not. They won’t come to your aid when you face danger.”

Tan Rou suddenly felt it was a bit ridiculous. So far, all the dangers Samiyi had faced came from the people of this country. Yet here she was, the criticized foreigner, doing her utmost to protect Samiyi.

“Mahri, you have no right to speak here!” Samiyi glared at Mahri, “If you dare speak another word, I will have you thrown out of this conference hall!”

“Your Highness!” Mahri said, deeply grieved, “These foreigners will definitely cause us trouble. They keep finding faults with us, one moment they say our labs aren’t good enough, and the next they complain our food doesn’t suit their tastes. They aren’t here to discuss collaboration, they are here to create trouble!”

“Isn’t that the truth?” Samiyi was nearly amused by his desperation, “Mahri, don’t try to stir discord between us, I can judge for myself.”
