Seeing Zhu Suosuo and Luo Xi chatting, Yang Ke, who was in no mood to meddle in other people's business, looked at Yuan Xudong standing beside them and said goodbye:
"Mr. Yuan, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. We'll talk again when there's a chance!"
"Okay, I won't waste your time. We'll talk again when we have a chance!"
After saying goodbye to Yuan Xudong, Yang Ke continued to walk towards Ye Jinyan's office. Along the way, he had a gloomy face and ignored the ordinary employees who greeted him. When he arrived at the door of Ye Jinyan's president's office, without waiting for Fan Jingang, who was sitting in the outer room, to inform Ye Jinyan, he pushed open the door of the inner office and rushed in. He looked at Ye Jinyan who was sitting behind his desk flipping through the financial statements and shouted:
"Ye Jinyan, well done!"
Hearing Yang Ke's shout, Ye Jinyan, who was concentrating on his studies, was startled. Seeing Yang Ke rushing in angrily, he pretended to be confused and said:
"What's wrong? Why are you so excited?"
"You gave me a promotion and a raise to keep me here, but you just wanted to destroy me. You already knew that I had contacted a headhunter and planned to leave Jingyan, right?"
"Yang Ke, it doesn't matter whether you leave Jingyan or not. It doesn't matter at all. The key is whether you want to take the entire sales department with you or go to our rival company, right?"
Seeing that Yang Ke didn't say anything, he obviously accepted this fact. Ye Jinyan leaned back in his office chair and continued:
"I did this to protect the group. Is that wrong?"
"Yes, just spend some money, spend some money to keep me idle, disperse my people, and then you can easily kick me out. Old Ye, I won't talk about what contribution I, Yang Ke, have made to Jingyan Group. If you treat me like this, the little ones outside are watching!"
"You are wrong. They are not your people, nor are they mine. They are all employees of the company. The company pays them salaries to support their families. They are not me, Ye Jinyan, nor are they you, Yang Ke. Do you understand?"
Looking at the indignant Yang Ke, Ye Jinyan said calmly:
"I admit that you have made great contributions to Jingyan Group and that you are very capable, but your merits do not outweigh your faults. This is not a reason for you to betray the company, and I cannot train you to become a rival of the company. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I've learned a new trick, cross the river and destroy the bridge, be cruel and ruthless!"
"Wrong, it's just a business tactic, nothing more!"
Looking at Ye Jinyan who didn't care, knowing that things were irreversible, Yang Ke could only swallow his anger and regain his calmness.
"Forget it, I'm quitting now!"
After saying that, without waiting for Ye Jinyan to respond , Yang Ke walked directly out of his office. Before he could leave the office, Ye Jinyan's voice sounded behind him:
"Wait a minute, let me give you a suggestion. You should wait for the company to fire you. This way you can get some money. Do you consider it?"
"Do I need that little money from you?"
Turning back to Ye Jinyan's desk, Yang Ke leaned on the edge of the table with both hands and looked at him and asked:
"I don't want the money. Please explain to me what you did to make Zhou Qing and Tony agree to leave Shanghai on the same day. Oh, and April. I treated her very well. How did you bribe her for the position of sales manager?"
Looking at Yang Ke who was confused, Ye Jinyan said calmly:
"You've already resigned, so stop worrying about it. It's so tiring, isn't it?"
Seeing Ye Jinyan who was unwilling to say more, Yang Ke had a rough guess in his mind. It was nothing more than coercion and inducement. Based on his understanding of Ye Jinyan, Apel and others, Ye Jinyan would not do anything coercive for them. The rest was inducement. Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Jinyan and clapped his hands and said:
"I've learned another trick. Everyone has a price. That's great!"
Seeing Yang Ke clapping his hands and walking out, and becoming a stranger to Jingyan Group and even hostile to it from then on, Ye Jinyan's heart was not as calm as he showed. He admired Yang Ke's abilities, and it was he who promoted Yang Ke step by step from a low-level salesperson to the sales manager of Jingyan Group. If Yang Ke hadn't been too anxious, he might have intended to train Yang Ke as his successor.
It's a pity that things have come to this point and cannot be reversed. No matter how capable a person is, as long as his heart is not in the company, there will be no place for him in the company. This has always been Ye Jinyan's business philosophy. As long as a person is in the company for a minute, he is a person of the company and should work hard for the company, instead of being fickle and having his heart in Han, especially when dealing with outside headhunters and people from rival companies.
As a senior executive of the company, Yang Ke should set an example instead of knowingly committing a crime and taking the entire sales department with him to leave. He disregarded the interests of the company for his own personal gain, which is against professional ethics. In Ye Jinyan's opinion, Yang Ke can leave, but he cannot take his subordinates with him. Otherwise, if Yang Ke can do the first day, he, Ye Jinyan, can do the fifteenth. Everyone should rely on their own abilities and business means to protect their own and the company's interests. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. It depends on who will have the last laugh.
…
Going back a few minutes, at the same time when Yang Ke broke into Ye Jinyan's office, in Yuan Xudong's office, Zhu Suosuo asked Luo Xi if she had rushed back to Shanghai last night. Luo Xi, who had let the cat out of the bag, naturally understood what she meant. If Yuan Xudong had rushed back to Shanghai last night, why didn't he go home but instead stayed outside and spent the night with another woman? Thinking of this, Luo Xi hesitated and couldn't speak. Zhu Suosuo was watching her from the side, waiting for her answer, and didn't even know that Yang Ke had left.
Looking at Luo Xi who was hesitant and speechless, Yuan Xudong didn't want to embarrass her, nor did he want her to lie to Zhu Suosuo for his own sake. He looked at Zhu Suosuo and explained evasively:
"I returned to Shanghai last night, but it was too late so I didn't inform you and Nansun. Luo Xi was resting in the house you lived in before. My friend and I went to the bar to drink some wine, and then we slept in a nearby hotel. Around ten o'clock this morning, I was worried that it was unsafe for Luo Xi to stay at home alone, so I went back to pick her up to come to work together. This is the general situation. Is there anything else you are worried about?"
Looking at Zhu Suosuo who looked suspicious, before she could say anything, Yuan Xudong glared at her and complained first:
"Suosuo, I'm already very tired from my business trip. When I get home, I have to explain the itinerary to you. In your heart, am I so untrustworthy?"
"No, that's not what I meant!"
Seeing Yuan Xudong seemed a little angry, Zhu Suosuo quickly left Luo Qian behind, ran to him, hugged his arm, and said coquettishly:
"Xudong, you wronged me. Besides, you said such things before, but you still bullied Nansun behind my back. You were away on business for a few days, and when you came back you had a beautiful sister. Isn't it okay for me to be jealous?"
"Have I ever said anything like that before?"
Yuan Xudong had told so many lies that he could not remember clearly. When Zhu Suosuo brought up the old accounts, he could not help but blush and said with a little embarrassment:
"Luo Xi is different from Nan Sun. She is my sister and I am her brother. What are you thinking?"
"Her last name is Luo, and your last name is Yuan. Are you two related by blood?"
Looking at Yuan Xudong's embarrassed expression, Zhu Suosuo twisted the soft flesh around his waist left and right, squinting her eyes and said in a faint voice:
"Tell me, where did you trick this little girl back from? She looks younger than me. You're really getting better and better. How old is she this year? She's not an underage girl, is she?"
Hearing Zhu Suosuo questioning Yuan Xudong like this, without waiting for Yuan Xudong to respond, Luo Qian, who was standing nearby, looked at Zhu Suosuo and interrupted:
"Sister Suosuo, I am twenty years old this year, eighteen years old, and not an underage girl."
"Eighteen years old?"
Hearing Luo Qian say that she was eighteen, Zhu Suosuo, who was already twenty-four, was envious. Although twenty-four was still very young, girls all hoped that they would be as young as possible, preferably eighteen forever, so that they could be a naive girl like a high school student, or a gentle and charming woman like a college student. Thinking of this, she pulled the soft flesh on Yuan Xudong's waist harder and harder, and said with a smile:
"Xudong, do you have anything you want to tell me?"
Looking at Zhu Suosuo who was so close, she was wearing a black business suit with a white shirt inside. Her collar was slightly open, revealing her sexy collarbone. On her fair and slender neck, she wore a slender platinum necklace with a dazzling diamond hanging below. It was the first diamond necklace Yuan Xudong gave her. She had long hair draped over her shoulders, her face was moist and shiny, her two red lips were slightly pouting, and she stared at him with her big eyes.
Ignoring the slight pain in his waist, Yuan Xudong embraced Zhu Suosuo in his arms, holding her waist with his left hand, stroking her long hair with his right hand, and whispered softly in her ear:
"Suosuo, I miss you!"
Being held in Yuan Xudong's arms and whispering in his ears, hearing his brief but yearning words, Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but let go of the soft flesh around his waist, hugged his chest tightly with both hands, and whispered in his ear:
"Xudong, I miss you too!"
"oops!"
"What's wrong?"
"I forgot about Manager Yang. Where is he?"
"He's been gone for several minutes. What happened to him?"
"Boss Ye plans to spend some money to idle Manager Yang, and also transfer all his former confidants in the sales department to other places for a year. He wants to argue with Boss Ye, and I'm afraid they will fight. Come with me to take a look. If they do fight, we can help persuade them to stop."
Looking at Zhu Suosuo who was not concerned about anything else, Yuan Xudong couldn't help rolling his eyes and said jokingly with a smile:
"You go if you want to go, I won't go. Old Ye is the CEO and I am the vice-CEO. If he and CEO Yang get into a fight, and I am there and don't help him beat CEO Yang, what will he do to me in the future? As the saying goes, old ginger is still spicy. Old Ye is such a ruthless person, and a simple and kind-hearted young man like me can't stand up to him. Don't you think this is the truth?"
She rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, knowing that as a company executive, it was not appropriate for him to interfere in such matters. Moreover, his relationship with Old Ye was much closer than his relationship with Yang Ke. Based on their personal relationship, there was no reason for him to help Yang Ke refute Ye Jinyan. Unfortunately, Yang Ke was her career guide, and she couldn't just watch him pack up and leave the company without doing anything. Thinking of this, Zhu Suosuo snorted and said,
"Humph, I'll go if I want to. You're still a simple and kind-hearted young man, are you trying to fool the devil?"
After that, without waiting for Yuan Xudong to respond, she broke free from his embrace, tidied up her slightly messy clothes, and walked out of Yuan Xudong's office, ready to go to Ye Jinyan's office to check on the situation. After she left, Yuan Xudong walked to Luo Qian, helped her sit on the sofa in the rest area, held her right hand, and stroked and comforted her:
"Rosie, sit here and rest for a while. When I come back, I'll go to the president's office to see if some little fool is being scolded and crying, okay?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Luo Qian looked at Yuan Xudong and said with a smile:
"Brother Xudong, is that little idiot referring to Sister Suosuo? You knew she would be scolded and cry, so why didn't you stop her?"
"You're a little fool too!"
After pinching Luo Xi's nose, Yuan Xudong touched her little hand and explained:
"I know Suosuo. Even if I tell her, she will still come over and ask for a scolding. There's nothing wrong with being wronged and frustrated. A sharp sword is forged through grinding, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. Can you understand?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, and hesitating for a moment, Luo Qian looked at Yuan Xudong and said cautiously:
"Brother Xudong, can you please stop telling lies? I don't like you telling lies to others."
Hearing Luo Xi say this, Yuan Xudong was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses. He leaned over to the slightly uneasy Luo Xi's ear and chuckled:
"Okay, tell your sister Suosuo, sister Nansun, and sister Jia that you like me and want to be my girlfriend, and I won't lie to you anymore, okay?"
Hearing Yuan Xudong say this, Luo Qian couldn't help blushing and said angrily:
"Brother Xudong, how could you do this? I don't care. I just don't like you telling lies!"
"Because I'm a bad guy!"
After taking a look outside the office and seeing that no one was passing by, Yuan Xudong leaned over to Luo Xi's lips and kissed her. After a long while, Luo Xi turned her head away slightly, her face flushed, her eyes misty, and her voice trembling:
"Brother Xudong, don't be like this. Sister Suosuo is still waiting for you. Is this okay after we get home?"
"Okay, you sit here and wait for me. You are not allowed to go anywhere. Got it?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Rosie sat on the sofa, tightly closed her legs and whispered:
"I understand, hurry up and leave!"
"Okay, I'll be back soon, bye!"
"Bye-Bye!"
Hearing Yuan Xudong's footsteps leaving, Luo Qian stood up from the sofa and groped her way out of the office.
In the corridor, Jiang Nansun saw Luo Xi groping towards her and realized that she was a blind person. She was about to go to Yuan Xudong's office to find Zhu Suosuo to have lunch together, so she hurried to Luo Xi's side, supported her and said carefully:
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"Thanks!"
Hearing Jiang Nansun's voice, knowing that she was a young girl, Luo Qian felt a little relieved and looked at her with a blushing face and said:
"Hi, I need to go to the bathroom, can you take me there?"
Looking at Luo Xi who was blind at such a young age, Jiang Nansun thought to herself that her experience was nothing compared to others. With the help of Yuan Xudong, she only paid a tiny price to get a luxurious life that others could only dream of for a lifetime. What else could she be dissatisfied with? One should not be too greedy. If you want to harvest in autumn, you should sow seeds in spring. Thinking of this, she took Luo Xi's hand and walked towards the bathroom, with a gentle smile on her lips, and said:
"Of course, the bathroom is over here. You're going the wrong way. Let me lead you there. I also need to go to the bathroom."
"Thank you, sister. You have a beautiful voice. You must be very beautiful, right?"
Looking at the sweet-talking Luo Xi, especially the white dress she was wearing, which was the same style as hers, Jiang Nansun smiled and said:
"Thank you, you are very beautiful too. This dress looks great too. You look like a little princess on TV in it!"
Hearing Jiang Nansun praising her like this, especially the clothes she was wearing, Luo Qian couldn't help but said happily:
"Thank you, sister. This is what my brother bought for me. It's really beautiful, isn't it?"
Realizing that Luo Xi was blind and naturally didn't know whether she was pretty or not, or whether the clothes she wore looked good, Jiang Nansun felt a little sorry for her and said:
"You are really beautiful. Your brother must love you very much, right?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Luo Xi followed Jiang Nansun to the bathroom, her face full of happiness and sweetness as she said:
"He is the best brother in the world and loves me very much, but sometimes he likes to lie to me and always bullies me. It's so annoying!"
"Yeah?"
Looking at Luo Xi's innocent face, Jiang Nansun secretly envied her for having a good brother who loved her and was willing to buy his sister a big-brand dress worth tens of thousands of yuan. Such a brother is rare. If she also had such a capable and generous brother, the responsibility of the Jiang family would not be placed on her shoulders, and the hateful Yuan Xudong would not take advantage of her. Although she did not regret it now, she could not help feeling a little ashamed when she thought of what Yuan Xudong had done to get her. Thinking of this, she looked at Luo Xi and smiled:
"My name is Jiang Nansun, and I'm an architectural designer in the design department. What's your name?"
"ah?"
Hearing Jiang Nansun's self-introduction, Luo Qian couldn't help but exclaimed, and said with some shyness and guilt:
"Sister Nansun, my name is Luo Xi, and I'm Brother Xudong's sister. He often talks about you to me, and I know you're his daughter..."
Without waiting for Luo Xi to speak, Jiang Nansun knew what she wanted to say and was afraid of exposing the fact that she was Yuan Xudong's girlfriend, so she quickly covered Luo Xi's mouth to stop her from continuing.
Looking around, no one noticed the situation here, Jiang Nansun breathed a sigh of relief. She pulled the confused Luo Xi into the bathroom, knocked on the cubicles one by one, and made sure that no one was in the bathroom. She looked at the slightly nervous and scared Luo Xi and smiled:
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person. Tell me, your brother is Yuan Xudong, the vice president of Jingyan Group?"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, Luo Xi pinched the hem of her skirt with both hands, lowered her head and said in a mosquito-like voice:
"Brother Xudong and Sister Suosuo went to the president's office. I wanted to go to the bathroom, so I walked out of his office alone, and then I met you. I know you are his girlfriend, just like Sister Suosuo, you guys..."
"Okay, I got it!"
Before Luo Xi could finish, Jiang Nansun hurriedly stopped her from continuing, her face slightly red as she said:
"Luo Xi, remember this: Yuan Xudong only has one girlfriend in the company, Zhu Suosuo. I am his good friend and Suosuo's best friend. Do you understand?"
"Okay, I understand. I'm sorry, Sister Nansun, for causing you trouble!"
"It's okay, just be more careful next time!"
Looking at the anxious Luo Qian, Jiang Nansun felt distressed and a little wary.
"Luo Xi, are you really Yuan Xudong's sister, biological sister?"
"No, he and I have no blood relationship. I was abandoned by my stepmother and I am blind. It was Brother Xudong who took me in and brought me back to the Magic City to treat my eyes. He is really a good man!"
As if she could hear the vigilance in Jiang Nansun's voice, Luo Qian looked at her and pleaded:
"Sister Nansun, I know what you and Sister Suosuo are worried about, and I can understand that. But please rest assured, I won't compete with you for Brother Xudong. I just want to stay with him and be his sister. Please don't chase me away, okay? I beg you, I don't have any other relatives. Brother Xudong is the only one who cares about me. I promise to be obedient in the future and do whatever you tell me to do, okay?"
Looking at Luo Xi who was about to cry, Jiang Nansun frowned slightly and hardened her heart:
"Luo Xi, do you know? Women's tears are a weapon to conquer men. Yuan Xudong is a playboy, but he is not a bad person. He can't stand seeing women crying because of being wronged. Is that how you conquered him?"
Hearing that Jiang Nansun misunderstood her, Luo Qian tried to hold back the tears in her eyes, but unfortunately they still flowed down. She looked at Jiang Nansun and shook her head repeatedly to explain:
"No, it's not like that. I don't want to conquer Brother Xudong, Sister Nansun, please listen to my explanation, okay?"
"Explain what?"
Seeing Luo Xi crying, Jiang Nansun hardened her heart:
"Luo Xi, I just want to ask you one thing. Tell me the truth. Do you like Yuan Xudong? Does Yuan Xudong like you?"
Hearing Jiang Nansun ask her this, Luo Xi opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word. She liked Yuan Xudong and Yuan Xudong also liked her, and that was enough. Any other explanations would be pale and powerless sophistry that could not change the essence of the matter. What else could she explain?
Seeing Luo Xi standing there speechless, Jiang Nansun breathed a sigh of relief. At least Luo Xi was a woman who didn't want to lie. Such a woman was much easier to deal with. Thinking of this, she looked at Luo Xi and tested :
"Luo Xi, have you ever had sex with Yuan Xudong?"
Hearing Jiang Nansun asking herself this, Luo Qian couldn't help blushing and said:
"No, what you imagined never happened between me and Brother Xudong. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Brother Xudong."
"No, I believe you!"
Looking at Luo Qian's blushing face, Jiang Nansun said softly:
"Tell me everything about what happened between you and Yuan Xudong, and I'll see what I should do with you!"
“Hmm~~”
Nodding slightly, facing the strong Jiang Nansun, Luo Xi, who already felt guilty, told her everything between herself and Yuan Xudong, including the misfortunes she had encountered. In order to avoid irritating Jiang Nansun and also to avoid causing trouble for Yuan Xudong, she concealed Yuan Xudong's intimate behavior towards her and the fact that he had other girlfriends. She only said sorry silently in her heart to Jiang Nansun, who was still kept in the dark and didn't know the truth, hoping that she would not blame herself.
After listening to Luo Xi's story, Jiang Nansun, who was a little soft-hearted, said, "I didn't expect her life story to be so pitiful.
"Luo Xi, let's do this. I'll help you rent a house and hire a nanny to take care of you. Didn't Yuan Xudong arrange an eye surgery for you? Three months later, I'll take you to the hospital for surgery. During this period, I hope you can separate from Yuan Xudong and stop having any contact with him. Can you do this?"
Hearing Jiang Nansun asking her to leave Yuan Xudong on her own initiative, Luo Qian couldn't help but grab her arm and begged:
"Sister Nansun, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Can you please forgive me just once? I can't leave Brother Xudong. I swear to you that as long as you let me stay with Brother Xudong, I will be quiet and peaceful. Please, can you believe me?"
"Luo Xi, you are a good girl, and I am willing to believe you, but I don't trust Yuan Xudong. I know what kind of person he is. If you stay with him, something bad will happen sooner or later!"
Seeing that Luo Qian wanted to say something, Jiang Nansun directly used her trump card and said:
"Luo Xi, I have a child, it's Yuan Xudong's. Can you understand my feelings?"
"What?"
Hearing Jiang Nansun say this, Luo Qian said in astonishment:
"Does Brother Xudong know?"
"He doesn't know yet. I want to give him a surprise. He promised before that if I have his child, he and I will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register for marriage. Luo Xi, I am getting married. I don't want my child to be born without a father. Please understand me, okay?"
Hearing that Yuan Xudong had a child and was going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to register for marriage with Jiang Nansun, Luo Qian was disheartened and looked dull. She was stunned for a long time, but finally nodded and agreed:
"Sister Nansun, give me some time to say goodbye to Brother Xudong. I promise you that I will never contact him again, okay?"
"Okay, I promise you!"
Looking at the sensible and pitiful Luo Xi, Jiang Nansun's lips curled up with a trace of pity. She couldn't help but hug Luo Xi into her arms, stroked her long hair, and consoled and apologized:
"Luo Qian, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. If you want to blame someone, blame Yuan Xudong. It's all his fault!"
"I don't blame him, it's my own fault for liking someone I shouldn't like!"
Nestled in Jiang Nansun's arms, Luo Qian could no longer hold back her sadness and burst into tears:
"Sister Nansun, I'm sorry. I really like him. I really like him. I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
"It doesn't matter, I know everything, I know everything!"
Stroking Luo Xi's long hair, Jiang Nansun hugged her and comforted her:
"I will take good care of you. When your eyes are healed, you will meet the man you like. Yuan Xudong is not worthy of your love. Stop crying, okay?"
"I don't want it, I don't want this!"
…
While Jiang Nansun was hiding in the toilet to drive away her love rival Luo Qian, Zhu Suosuo walked into Ye Jinyan's office and passed by Yang Ke who was leaving in anger. Looking at Zhu Suosuo who looked anxious, Yang Ke suppressed his anger and said calmly:
"Suosuo, I'm leaving now. If you've thought it through, just give me a call. I'm always here to welcome you!"
Without waiting for Zhu Suosuo to respond, Fan Jingang, who was following behind Yang Ke and was responsible for closing the door and seeing the guests off, frowned slightly and said in an unhappy voice:
"Yang Ke, what did you say to Suosuo? I'm going with you. Where are we going?"
Ignoring Fan Jingang, Yang Ke walked past Zhu Suosuo and walked towards the elevator to leave the Jingyan Group office building, while turning his back and speaking in a faint voice:
"Fan Jingang, I'm leaving now. Tell Old Ye that we'll meet again someday!"
"Look at his character. He wants to fight with Mr. Ye. Is he worthy?"
Fan Jingang habitually belittled Yang Ke who was speaking harshly, and looked at Zhu Suosuo who was still standing in front of him and said strangely:
"Zhu Suosuo, why are you here instead of staying in Mr. Yuan's office?"
"I want to find Mr. Ye!"
"Now is not the right time. Yang Ke is gone. He is in a bad mood. Let him be alone for a while. Don't offend him at this time. Got it?"
"I know, but I want to find Mr. Ye to find out the whole story. Only then can I decide whether to stay or leave with Manager Yang!"
Hearing Zhu Suosuo's bold words, Fan Jingang couldn't help but poke her head with his finger, angrily saying:
"Zhu Suosuo, you really want to go with him. Are you sick? You are the secretary of the vice president of Jingyan Group. Not to mention how Mr. Ye treats you, your boyfriend Mr. Yuan is also in the company. You are going with Yang Ke and then acting opposite your boyfriend. What are you thinking about?"
Hearing Fan Jingang say this, Zhu Suosuo was quite entangled and said:
"I know everything you said, but Yang Ke was really good to me. He taught me how to sell houses and introduced his clients to me. I sold four houses, three of which were because of him. He was kind to me. I can't just pretend nothing happened at this moment. I, Zhu Suosuo, can't do that!"
"Okay, okay, okay, just tell me these words once, and don't say them when you go in. He's angry right now, so don't provoke him, got it?"
"I know, don't worry, I'll just go in and talk to him for a few words, I won't provoke him!"
"Don't mess with him!"
Amid Fan Jingang's tireless exhortations, Zhu Suosuo walked into the inner room of the president's office. Looking at Ye Jinyan, who was lying on the office chair with his eyes closed, she organized her words in her mind and said:
"Boss Ye!"
Hearing Zhu Suosuo's voice, Ye Jinyan opened his eyes and looked at her, as if he knew what she wanted to say to him. Ye Jinyan just looked at her without saying a word, waiting for what to say next.
Seeing that Ye Jinyan didn't say anything, Zhu Suosuo could only continue:
"Boss Ye, why do you have to force Yang Ke to leave?"
"Who forced him?"
“When I was in the sales department, he was always proud of working on Jingyan’s projects!”
"He contacted a headhunter and wanted to change jobs. You know that, don't you?"
"But it's normal to find a headhunter and learn about the market. How can you..."
“Not normal!”
Without waiting for Zhu Suosuo to finish her words, Ye Jinyan slammed the table and said loudly:
"That's not normal in my place. I've told you before that if you work for the company for one minute, you have to work for the company!"
Zhu Suosuo was startled by Ye Jinyan's slamming the table and yelling. Her eyes were red and tears were welling up in her eyes. Because of Yuan Xudong, and because Ye Jinyan himself liked Zhu Suosuo very much, who was very similar to his deceased daughter, he had always been a kind and loving father to Zhu Suosuo. This was the first time that Zhu Suosuo was yelled at by him. Looking at Ye Jinyan with a cold and ruthless face, Zhu Suosuo said in a wronged voice:
"But……"
"But what?"
"But even if he wants to leave, you should ask him why he wants to leave and what he is dissatisfied with Jingyan!"
"Why should I ask? If you want to ask, you can go ask him!"
"No, Mr. Ye, that's not what I meant. What I meant was, is there any chance that Yang Ke..."
"Don't say that again!"
"Is it possible for Yang Ke to come back..."
Before Zhu Suosuo could finish, Ye Jinyan interrupted her and said:
"You're talking nonsense!"
Ye Jinyan yelled at her again. Zhu Suosuo could no longer hold back her tears. She continued to cry and said stubbornly:
"But Yang Ke is my master in Jingyan, I can't..."
Before she could finish, Ye Jinyan, who was furious, stood up from his office chair, walked back and forth behind his desk and said:
"Okay, he's your master, you can go with him, no one is stopping you here!"
"Boss Ye, that's not what I meant, I..."
"What do you mean?"
Looking at Zhu Suosuo who was crying bitterly, Ye Jinyan said calmly:
"Zhu Suosuo, you are just an administrative secretary in the president's office. Don't be so self-righteous. Jingyan Group does not lack a Yang Ke, let alone a Zhu Suosuo. We can recruit at any time. We can recruit one, two, five, as many as we want. You think you are all important to the company, right? Yes, you are all important, but if your heart is not in the company, you are not important at all. Okay, stop crying in front of me, get out!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye!"
Feeling that she had been greatly wronged, Zhu Suosuo bowed to Ye Jinyan, took off the work badge around her neck, and placed it on Ye Jinyan's desk. She cried and said aggrievedly:
"Boss Ye, Yang Ke and I are leaving. Please take care of yourself. Thank you for taking care of me during this period!"
"go out!"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, I'm leaving!"
Seeing Zhu Suosuo covering her face and crying as she ran out of Ye Jinyan's office, Fan Jingang, who heard it clearly from outside, wanted to persuade her, but did not give him the chance. Zhu Suosuo simply walked around him and ran out, disappearing in the corridor.
With a slight sigh, Fan Jingang walked into Ye Jinyan's office. Seeing him holding Zhu Suosuo's work badge and thinking, he knew that he was feeling bad. Fan Jingang wanted to say something to comfort him, but didn't know how to start.
Seeing Fan Jin Gangchu in front of his desk, Ye Jinyan put down Zhu Suosuo's work badge, looked up at him and said calmly:
"What are you going to do, plead for her?"
"No, she's just a little kid, she's acting on impulse, calm down first, I'm afraid..."
Seeing that Fan Jingang stopped talking, Ye Jinyan looked directly at him and asked:
"What are you afraid of? What am I afraid of?"
After hesitating for a while, Fan Jingang looked into Ye Jinyan's eyes and said bluntly:
"I'm afraid of you. If she really leaves, you'll be sad!"
Without refuting Fan Jingang, Ye Jinyan lay down on his office chair and closed his eyes to rest:
"roll!"
Looking at Ye Jinyan, who was hard on the outside but soft on the inside and couldn't let go of his arrogant attitude, Fan Jingang held back the words he wanted to say and said in a rather willful manner:
"Get out if you want!"
After Fan Jingang left the inner office, Ye Jinyan opened his eyes and looked at himself in the floor-length mirror. He picked up the porcelain on the desk and smashed it.
Hearing the sound of glass breaking coming from the inner room outside the office, Fan Jingang looked up, then closed his eyes and lay down on his office chair to rest. He didn't even reserve lunch for Ye Jinyan, intending to let Ye Jinyan stay hungry sober. He himself didn't plan to eat lunch either, just to lose weight and stay healthy.
Zhu Suosuo ran out of Ye Jinyan's office crying and met Yuan Xudong head-on. Seeing Zhu Suosuo crying so hard and looking so pitiful, Yuan Xudong almost laughed out loud. He walked up to her and wiped away her tears. Yuan Xudong looked at her slightly red eyes and smiled:
"After being scolded by Ye Jinyan, you want to resign and go with Yang Ke?"
"How do you know that?"
Looking at Yuan Xudong who was making fun of her, Zhu Suosuo, feeling aggrieved and uncomfortable, couldn't help but lean into his arms and beat him, saying:
"It's all your fault, and you're still laughing?"
Taking Zhu Suosuo into his arms and letting her gently beat his chest, Yuan Xudong looked into her eyes and smiled:
"I am so wronged. You cried because of Yang Ke being scolded by Ye Jinyan. Why do you blame me in the end?"
Seeing Yuan Xudong gloating, Zhu Suosuo couldn't help but say:
"It's all your fault, it's all your fault!"
"Okay, it's all my fault. It's all my fault. Who made me have such a stupid girlfriend like you?"
Holding Zhu Suosuo's waist, Yuan Xudong stroked her face and pretended to be angry:
"Before you beat a dog, you have to look at its owner. Ye Jinyan is too disrespectful to me. Don't stop me. I'm going to settle the score with him!"
"Who stopped you?"
She rolled her eyes at Yuan Xudong, and waited for Zhu Suosuo to react. She glared at Yuan Xudong who was making fun of her and said:
"Yuan Xudong, who are you calling a dog?"
"I'm a dog. I'm a dog. Is it okay for a single dog to be a dog?"
"roll!"
