Chapter 65 I Quit
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's nervous expression, Tan Xuan smiled and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can.
"It doesn't matter where she sits. Every other seat has its own owner. This is where she is helpless. Can she jump out and chase me away?"
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's strange expression, Tan Xuan changed the subject again, "Has your boss approved your change of dormitory?"
Tan Xuan's words instantly turned Jiang Yingyue from nervous to frustrated. Jiang Yingyue pouted and shook her head pitifully, "No, the leader won't allow me to do so. He said that the dormitory is arranged by the company and cannot be adjusted at will according to personal preferences."
Tan Xuan frowned slightly when he heard this and asked, "Didn't you tell your leader about what happened last night?"
Jiang Yingyue shook her head. "How can I say that? If I say that I saw Sister Wang's ghost when I returned to the dormitory, I guess everyone in the company will think I'm crazy. At first, I just told a few people that I saw my grandfather, and they talked about me for several days. Now they say that Sister Wang and President Li have become ghosts. What will they think of me? Will they send me to a mental hospital?"
Tan Xuan snorted coldly and asked, "Are you afraid that others will laugh at you, or are you afraid that your sister Wang will harm you? You have to think clearly about the importance of this."
"Do you mean that I should tell my leader about what happened yesterday?" Jiang Yingyue asked tentatively, still feeling that this matter should not be told.
Tan Xuan looked at Jiang Yingyue with a bitter smile, and asked her patiently: "Don't you think you should not tell me now? If your boss doesn't change your dormitory, can you still work here with peace of mind?"
"This..." Jiang Yingyue hesitated for a moment, weighed the importance of the matter, and finally nodded vigorously, gritting her teeth, "Okay, I'll talk to him again. If I lose my life, why would I care about other people's gossip?"
Having said that, he went out again with the momentum he had just gathered.
"Hehe..." Looking at the door, Tan Xuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, muttering to himself: "Fortunately, I am not stupid. I still know that life is the most important thing. Oh! Why is a dead ghost still wandering around? This office is stained with foul air. It will be bad if he comes back one day. I will install a lock on the door and see how you can come back."
As he spoke, Tan Xuan pulled out a tissue from the table, got some water from the water dispenser to wet the tissue, and then used the tissue to draw a weird shape on the inside of the office door. After drawing, Tan Xuan reached out and pressed on the shape, saying "Open".
A faint light flashed across Tan Xuan's hand, and the light was fleeting, imprinted on the wooden door. Then the watermarked pattern on the door seemed to come alive, gradually unfolding to form a blooming flower.
Tan Xuan blew at the door again, and the watermarked flowers gradually dried up . After a while, the pattern lost its original color and merged with the wooden door. Even if you looked carefully, you could not see anything unusual here.
Tan Xuan chuckled, threw away the used tissue in his hand, and sat in Jiang Yingyue's seat.
After a while, Tan Xuan heard a quarrel outside, and the sound was getting louder and louder, as if it was not far from this office. At first, Tan Xuan didn't care. After all, this was Jiang Yingyue's company, and as an outsider, he should keep a low profile and stay away from other things. But later, the sound became louder and louder, and Tan Xuan heard that one of the voices in the quarrel seemed to be Jiang Yingyue's voice, so he couldn't sit still and got up and pushed the door open to go out.
There were not many people in the corridor and the doors of every office were closed. Tan Xuan knew that there were countless ears perked up behind each door .
The quarrel came from the general manager's office opposite. Now the quarrel was even more intense, but most of the time it was just one man yelling, and Jiang Yingyue took a long time to get a word in. Tan Xuan didn't know how Jiang Yingyue talked to their leader, and it turned out to be such a scene.
Tan Xuan walked to the door of the general manager's office and was about to push it open, but he heard Jiang Yingyue say "I quit" from inside the room, and then the office door was opened from the inside.
Tan Xuan and Jiang Yingyue looked at each other and were both startled by the other's sudden appearance in front of them.
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's tearful eyes, Tan Xuan asked first, "What happened to you two? Why are you still arguing?"
"He is unreasonable. I quit." As she said that, Jiang Yingyue's tears flowed uncontrollably. She pushed Tan Xuan and planned to leave.
Tan Xuan stood at the door without moving, not giving Jiang Yingyue space to leave. This result was unexpected for Tan Xuan, and of course it was something he didn't want to see. If Jiang Yingyue really quit, he would be more or less unable to deny the relationship, after all, he was the one who instigated her to come and tell the truth.
"Wait a moment."
Tan Xuan did not let Jiang Yingyue go out, but pulled Jiang Yingyue back to the general manager's office and closed the door.
A middle-aged, fat man in the office was a little annoyed when he saw them coming in. He pointed at Tan Xuan with a cold face and asked, "What do you do? What are you doing in my office?"
Tan Xuan did not answer the middle-aged man's question. He took a few steps to the middle-aged man, who was only one table away from him, and there was no good look on his face.
"It doesn't matter who I am. I just want to ask you why you don't change Jiang Yingyue's dormitory? Is there no dormitory to change, or do you just not want to change it?"
"What does it have to do with you if I don't change her dormitory? Do I need to tell you? Get out of here." The middle-aged man started to chase the man away.
"If you don't explain it to me clearly, I won't leave. Don't yell at me. You are Jiang Yingyue's leader, but you are not my leader. You'd better be polite when you speak."
"I'm being polite to you, but who do you think you are? I won't be polite to you anymore, what can you do?"
"I can beat you."
Tan Xuan slammed the table, jumped up, and jumped directly in front of the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man didn't expect that the person who came was a stupid old man. It looked like he would start a fight if they didn't agree with him, so he quickly dodged backwards.
"What do you want to do? I'm telling you, don't mess around."
Maybe he has many ways to deal with Tan Xuan, but now he is facing Tan Xuan alone, and he is completely the weaker party. If a fight really breaks out, he will not gain any advantage.
The middle-aged man's momentum weakened instantly.
"Tan Xuan, don't!" Jiang Yingyue was also frightened by Tan Xuan's actions.
Tan Xuan approached the middle-aged man step by step, pushing him to the wall. He snorted and sneered twice, and asked, "It's fine if you don't want to change Jiang Yingyue's dormitory, but why did you fire her?"
Seeing that Tan Xuan did not take action directly, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and mustered up some courage, and said sternly: "I didn't fire her, she just quit on her own, didn't she?"
Jiang Yingyue came over and pulled Tan Xuan, "Yes, I took the initiative to quit. It has nothing to do with Mr. Zhang. Let's go."
"No. How can you just quit a good job? You have to ask for the truth." Jiang Yingyue couldn't stop the emotional Tan Xuan, so he continued to ask Mr. Zhang, "Tell me clearly why you didn't change Jiang Yingyue's dormitory? Don't you know that Sister Wang in her dormitory died last night?"
Mr. Zhang nodded and replied with a cold face, "I know, but Xiao Wang died in a car accident, not in the dormitory. The dormitory is not a haunted house. Why would she change dormitories? She lives in such a big house by herself. How many people envy her? Why does she need to change dormitories? Why is there so much trouble?"
"Since someone is envious, why don't you move the person you envy over there? Then you can swap with Jiang Yingyue, right? It's the best of both worlds, can't you imagine it?"
"Humph!" Mr. Zhang snorted coldly, looking at Tan Xuan with disdain on his face, "Jiang Yingyue can change if she wants, but the other party is a man, can she live in the men's dormitory?"
"Male?" Tan Xuan's face darkened instantly. It was obvious that this guy was playing a trick on him, and he was sitting there fearlessly, not afraid of him fighting with him at all. Tan Xuan suppressed his anger and asked loudly: "Didn't Jiang Yingyue tell you just now that she saw Sister Wang's ghost when she returned to the dormitory last night? Jiang Yingyue was almost forced to fall from the building by Sister Wang yesterday. As a company leader, shouldn't you consider the personal safety of your employees first? What's wrong with changing their dormitories? If something unexpected really happens, can you take responsibility as a leader?"
"Ha ha……"
Mr. Zhang laughed out loud, waved his hand to push Tan Xuan away, sat in the boss chair and slid to the desk, picked up the teacup, blew away the hot steam from the rim of the cup, and took a sip of hot tea.
Tan Xuan was a little confused by Mr. Zhang's behavior and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"What am I laughing at?" Mr. Zhang glanced at Tan Xuan, snorted disdainfully, and sneered, "You don't look very old, but your mind is full of feudal superstitions and ghosts. You must have watched too many movies. What era is it now? If you want to change dormitories, you should find a suitable excuse. You young people, I am really speechless. Get out, I'm still busy. Jiang Yingyue, go directly to the Human Resources Department to handle the procedures. I will notify them later. Don't yell in front of me."
"Are you really planning to fire her?" Tan Xuan frowned. As for who was shouting, Tan Xuan was too lazy to argue with him.
Mr. Zhang glanced at Tan Xuan, snorted again, and sneered, "Why, are you regretting for her? This is her own choice. Adults must be absolutely responsible for themselves."
As he spoke, Mr. Zhang looked at Jiang Yingyue behind Tan Xuan and said, "I'll give you another chance to choose. Do you agree with my opinion?"
"You're dreaming." Jiang Yingyue replied angrily without even thinking.
Tan Xuan looked back at Jiang Yingyue, only to see that her face was flushed and her body was shaking. He didn't know why she was so angry. As for what opinions they were talking about, he had no idea at all. But looking at Jiang Yingyue's expression, he could tell that it was not a good thing, at least not for Jiang Yingyue.
Seeing Jiang Yingyue's straightforward refusal, Mr. Zhang's face darkened, he snorted and said, "What else is there to say? Please leave immediately, or I'll ask someone to invite you to sit somewhere else for a while."
Understanding Mr. Zhang's implication, Tan Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, approached Mr. Zhang, and asked condescendingly: "Do you think we are lying to you? Do you think Jiang Yingyue is making up a story with you?"
"What do you think?" Mr. Zhang met Tan Xuan's gaze and glared back, "Those are not important anymore. Since Jiang Yingyue has quit, even if Xiao Wang becomes a ghost, it has nothing to do with her. Don't use these ghosts as an excuse to make it seem like you saw it that way."
"Hehe..." Hearing the hurried footsteps outside, Tan Xuan knew that the fat man in front of him had someone to rely on. Tan Xuan reached out and patted Mr. Zhang on the shoulder , smiling and said, "Since you are a staunch atheist, I hope you will behave properly, otherwise the ghosts will come to find you sooner or later. If you don't do bad things, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. This is not just a saying."
After saying that, Tan Xuan slowly stood up and turned back to call Jiang Yingyue, "Let's go. Since you have decided not to do this, don't delay Mr. Zhang's work."
There's no point in continuing the conversation if we're not on the same page, especially since the other person's helper is already outside the door.
Tan Xuan walked to the door and was about to open it to go out, but turned back and reminded Mr. Zhang with a smile: "Although you don't believe in ghosts, I still want to tell you that after a person dies and becomes a ghost, he will wander around the place where he worked and lived before he died. Sister Wang who died in your company yesterday turned into a ghost and passed by the place where she worked. You'd better not work overtime at night, otherwise..."
Tan Xuan didn't finish his words, he opened the door and went out. There were four or five strong men standing outside the door, but Tan Xuan chose to ignore them and pushed the door directly into Jiang Yingyue's office. You can leave if you want, but you can't leave your things behind.
