Everyone was astonished upon hearing the news.
They were all aware that Wen Yan might be dismissed, having just witnessed his conflict with the chairman.
But Chen Ru, Xie Xuan, Li Ya, and others, they are from the public relations departnt, right?
Why would they be dismissed as well?
Oh, they recalled what Mu Jinyu had said earlier, guessing that these few must be the troublemakers Mu Jinyu had rooted out from the public relations departnt.
With this thought, the way everyone looked at them held a mocking edge.
Manager Chen and Xie Xuan, along with the others, upon hearing Mu Jinyu's final decree, felt as if they'd been sentenced to death, their faces turning ashen with indignation and anger.
The other won in the public relations departnt who thought they too would be dismissed, were shocked and delighted to hear their nas not called out by Mu Jinyu.
They rembered how they had ordered Mu Jinyu around the day before, making him do all sorts of nial tasks, and thought for sure they would be dismissed. But it turned out that Mu Jinyu didn't hold these things against them.
This brought them imnse relief, and they silently vowed to dedicate themselves to working hard for the company from now on, in order to deserve the salary that Mu Jinyu had doubled for them.
Wen Yan, who was sitting on the ground, turned increasingly pale as he heard Mu Jinyu indeed intended to dismiss him.
He glanced up slightly and saw the mocking looks from those around him, especially the employees from the procurent departnt, whose eyes were filled with contempt and disdain, fuelling the fire in his heart and tainting his gaze towards Mu Jinyu with bitterness.
He thought back to the days when he was the envy of all, when nobody dared to ddle in his lazy affairs, and everyone looked at him with awe and respect. Who would have dared to scorn him like they were doing now?
But now, with just one word from that pretty boy Mu Jinyu, he was about to be cast down from heaven straight into hell.
Wen Yan truly couldn't accept this reality!
Then, he caught sight of Xu Qingya standing next to Mu Jinyu, and a thought flashed through his mind. He hurriedly shouted:
"President Xu, don't let this guy do as he pleases! I haven't done anything wrong, so what gives him the right to fire over a personal grudge? Besides, with talent like mine, how could you bear to let go? If I leave, how will you ever find soone as excellent as ?"
Xu Qingya felt both annoyed and amused when she heard Wen Yan's words.
How could this guy be so shaless, thinking he was such an excellent talent that she would struggle to find soone better?
Where did he get this confidence from!
Shaking her head slightly, Xu Qingya said, "Sorry, you're not excellent..."
Before she could finish, Wen Yan abruptly looked up, staring at Xu Qingya, incredulously asking:
"How can that be? If I weren't excellent, then how could it be that right after the interview, you called and asked to co to work imdiately, even making manager of the supply departnt? I've asked around; my probationary salary was even higher than others' salary after going permanent..."
He glared at Xu Qingya, his eyes bloodshot, grinding his teeth as he said: "Isn't that because I am so excellent that you were afraid to lose a talent like ?"
He still believed that getting into the company had nothing to do with Wen Rou, since after all, the call from Xu Qingya had co much earlier than Wen Rou had agreed to help him.
So, he firmly believed that his joining the company was all due to his own ability!
However, now Xu Qingya, in order to ingratiate herself with Mu Jinyu, actually denied her own excellence. This made him extrely angry and unable to accept it.
After hearing Wen Yan's words, Gu Xiyan glanced at the silent and sullen Wen Rou, couldn't help but snort with laughter, and mocked, "Even ants dare to covet the credit of Heaven!"
"What did you say?!"
Wen Yan, upon hearing Gu Xiyan's words, instantly looked up, glaring at her in anger, this "lickspittle" of Mu Jinyu!
Gu Xiyan sneered, "You say you are daydreaming. You were able to work at our company entirely because the chairman spoke on behalf of Sister Qingya. She was the one who called to notify you to co to the company. The chairman did this not because he saw you as a talent, but because he didn't want to be annoyed to death by your family!"
With a snort of ridicule, Gu Xiyan was too lazy to even look at Wen Yan. She crossed her arms, rcilessly stripping him of his last bit of dignity, "Otherwise, do you think your qualifications were enough to get into Jinyu Company?"
Xu Qingya also added insult to injury, "Yeah, General Gu is right. The talent we want in our company should at least start with a master's degree. Ordinary university graduates aren't considered, unless they are from prestigious universities..."
"And you..." She glanced at the ghastly pale Wen Yan, her beautiful eyes involuntarily sweeping past a hint of unspeakable helplessness, "Your education is only a vocational school. Of course, I don't an to look down on vocational school graduates, but those are the company's rules, so you were already eliminated in the first round of interviews. How could I possibly spend a high salary to retain you?"
The information released by Gu Xiyan and Xu Qingya was too damaging to Wen Yan.
It was like sharp knives, one after another, stabbing into him, flaying him alive.
Wen Yan slumped to the ground, his eyes bewildered, helplessly looking at his hands, muttering in a daze:
"How could this be?! Impossible..."
Wen Yan was completely unable to accept that the man he had looked down upon, who relied on Wen Rou for sustenance, had suddenly transford into the company's big boss, while his own proud job was not attained through his own abilities, but was charity from him!
The people of the purchasing departnt, after hearing the words of Gu Xiyan and Xu Qingya, couldn't help but whisper among themselves:
"No wonder. I've always been curious about how a vocational school graduate like him managed to get into our company and earn such a high salary. So this is the real reason!"
"Haha, it's hilarious. He was boasting so much in our purchasing departnt a few days ago, saying he didn't rely on Director Wen's connections but got in through his own abilities. Now what? Haha..." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel~fire~net
"Hehe, when I heard his cousin was our General Gu, I knew the truth. Still, he prances around so full of himself, thinking he got in on his own rit..."
"I couldn't be bothered to expose him. Let him continue living in his own beautiful delusion."
"..."
The words of the purchasing departnt staff were even sharper than those of Xu Qingya and Gu Xiyan, like blades thrusting straight into Wen Yan's heart, nearly making him spit blood.
Now, Wen Yan truly regretted.
Had he known, he would not have pestered Xu Qingya to death, he should have simply left.
As a result, now that Xu Qingya had revealed the truth of the matter, he really had lost all face, his last bit of dignity gone.
Afterward, Wen Yan, his face ashen, shaky on his feet, struggled to get up from the ground, and spoke in a low voice, "I know. Just process my salary..."
"You still want a salary? After starting work here, you've been idling all day. What have you actually done?"
Mu Jinyu could not help but speak up in mockery, truly amazed that this guy could be so thick-skinned.
