Seeing An Xiaxia come in, he made no sign of trying to make up for what he had just said . Instead, he rolled his eyes at An Xiaxia in disdain .
This manager had always been a pedantic and lofty character, who kept his distance from the gossips . Hence, he knew nothing about the rumor going around these days .
Sheng Yize crossed his legs and tapped the desk casually with his fingertips, asking lazily, “Why do you want to fire her?”
The manager darted a look at An Xiaxia and cleared his throat . “I heard that He Dongyang pushed An Xiaxia out of that restaurant at the last moment . Without her, He Dongyang would have been able to get out himself and he might even be able to save Wen Qing . Hence, she was the reason those two were killed! An Xiaxia, how can you come back when your seniors are dead?”
He couldn’t have used more vitriolic and heartless words . Obviously, he was trying to show his muscle in front of this new president, proving that he wasn’t someone Sheng Yize could mess around with!
An Xiaxia shifted a little, her face growing paler .
“And there’s more . How could you say it was an earthquake in the video? It was almost taken down as a deliberately spread rumor! We didn’t hire you to disgrace the company!” The manager went on criticizing her before changing to a condescending tone . “Since you’re still young, I’m willing to give you another chance . You’re not staying in this city, though . Go work in the countryside branch and temper yourself there!”
Sheng Yize watched casually on the side and didn’t rush to stick up for An Xiaxia .
He was waiting for the woman to plead for his help .
One word from him and the situation could be turned around, saving her day .
However, An Xiaxia didn’t even look at him this whole time, as if the two of them didn’t know each other .
“Mr . Zhao, there’s something I need to tell you . ” An Xiaxia brushed her hair away from her face and smiled . “May I ask from what standpoint are you giving me all this criticism?”
She had always come to work with a ponytail, black-rimmed glasses, and no makeup at all . Today, she wore her hair down and had put on a little makeup to give some color to her sickly pale face, which made her look like a different person . That smile alone was stunning enough .
The manager swallowed and thought to himself, “Maybe I should let An Xiaxia keep her job . There’s always a chance that… hoho…”
“As your boss, of course! Why, do you have a problem with that?”
An Xiaxia nodded, then picked up a cup of coffee and splashed it all over the manager’s greasy face .
“First of all, I handed in my resignation letter a week ago, so I’m no longer your employee . Secondly, I was there when my seniors died and I know more than you how painful it was . What I can do now is to live a full life, for myself and for both their sakes . Thirdly, after the incident, I came up with the report as quickly as I could . Even if it wasn’t that accurate, it still helped save a lot of lives . What did you do apart from acting like a smartass afterwards?” An Xiaxia smiled mildly as she said, “Last but not least, you’re a stupid asshole!”
She gave the so-called manager the finger, then marched out of the building proudly .
The onlookers were practically lionizing An Xiaxia now . God knew how much bullshit they had taken from this manager . What An Xiaxia had done just then was awesome!
The manager stood there, utterly dumbfounded . Sheng Yize gracefully rose to his feet with the poise of a perfect gentleman . “Mr . Zhao, I forgot to tell you something . ”
“Huh?” The manager looked bemused .
“An Xiaxia is my wife,” Sheng Yize said with a smile . He then casually walked out of the room with his hands behind his back .
Mr . Zhao froze on the spot .
