[ cháshuǐ jiān]
[The office kitchen]
我就说那个贱人一定在我背后对老板说了什么，现在好啦！我绞尽脑汁，呕心沥血规划出来的案子，就这样被她那纤纤小手轻轻一挥，然后就灰飞烟灭了。你说这口气我怎么吞得下去？
wǒ jiù shuō nàge jiànrén yīdìng zài wǒ bèihòu duì lǎobǎn shuōle shénme，xiànzài hǎo la！wǒ jiǎojìn nǎozhī，ǒuxīn lìxiě guīhuà chūlái de ànzi，jiù zhèyàng bèi tā nà xiānxiān xiǎoshǒu qīngqīng yì huī，ránhòu jiù huīfēi yānmiè le。nǐ shuō zhè kǒuqì wǒ zěnme tūn de xiàqu？
I told you that bitch had said something to the boss behind my back, now look where we are! I racked my brains and put my blood, sweat and tears into planning that project, just to have her take it into her nimble little hands and now it has gone up in smoke. How am I supposed to just let it go?
真的吗？你的案子真的被搁置了呀？不是好不容易才通过的吗？哎呀呀，看来你们这次梁子结大了。
zhēn de ma？nǐ de ànzi zhēnde bèi gēzhì le ya？bùshì hǎobùróngyì cái tōngguò de ma？āiya ya，kànlai nǐmen zhècì Liángzi jié dà le。
Really? Has your project been shelved? Didn't you put all that effort into making sure it was approved? Oh No, it doesn't seem as if things between you two are going to get any better.
我听到消息的那当下，真是差点儿没心肌梗塞！我要是怀孕，大概就当场把孩子给生出来了。她究竟以为她是谁呀！才来没多久，就这样作威作福的，根本就是狗仗人势！什么也不会，就占了那间最大的办公室，那我呢？你知道我贡献了多少青春给公司吗？
wǒ tīngdào xiāoxi de nà dāngxià，zhēn shì chàdiǎnr méi xīnjī gěngsè！wǒ yào shì huáiyùn，dàgài jiù dāngchǎng bǎ háizi gěi shēng chūlái le。tā jiūjìng yǐwéi tā shì shéi ya！cái lái méi duō jiǔ，jiù zhèyàng zuòwēi zuòfú de，gēnběn jiùshì gǒuzhàngrénshì！shénme yěbùhuì，jiù zhàn le nà jiān zuìdà de bàngōngshì，nà wǒ ne？nǐ zhīdào wǒ gòngxiàn le duōshao qīngchūn gěi gōngsī ma？
When I heard the news I literally almost had a heart attack! If I'd been pregnant, I probably would have given birth right then and there. Who the hell does she think she is! Strutting about like she owns the place after just having started here, she's relying on the boss' affection for her to get her way! She's completely incompetent, but still has the biggest office and what about me? Do you know how much of my youth I've contributed to this company?
