“What nonsense are you talking about? He stayed at home today and did not come to work! He was informed yesterday that he was fired!” Li Hong yelled emotionally. “I just know that people like you are all liars who never keep their word. You think we’re all just idiots, don’t you?!”
“Why are you so worked up? Are you trying to solve your problem or are you only interested in causing trouble?” Lu Zhaoyang spoke steadily and looked sharply at her.
Li Hong glared back at her. “Of course I want to solve this, why don’t you tell me what you intend to do about it?! So many of the company staff are fired because of you. You are so heartless!”
“This is a corporation. We do not do favors here. You can ask your family members for favours, but here in the office, everything is done according to the company’s regulations! Now, what I want to clarify is this — are you upset because you lost your job or you think that the eighty four thousand yuan compensation is too little for you?”
She read in Li Hong’s files that her compensation was that amount.
“I didn’t get a single yuan out of the eighty four thousand you promised!” Li Hong growled angrily. “You’re a liar!”
Lu Zhaoyang realized the crux of her situation then. “Why don’t you check your account first? All the staff we let go are compensated. As for the matter of your husband, I will check with the management in the relevant departments. If it was a case of miscommunication, the management will bear full responsibility. Your husband was a technician. He would not have been fired, at least not by me. HR’s department head will confirm that.”
“It must be a misunderstanding!”
“Yeah, the company treats us quite well actually!”
“The president rarely shows himself, but he does treat us well! Ever since he joined the company, our salaries have seen some growth!”
“That’s right. Special Assistant Lu is only doing what is best for the company. It is possible that there was a mistake in the process of restructuring the company. You should talk things over. Throwing eggs at someone is not right.”
The people around them began to discuss amongst themselves.
Lu Zhaoyang continued calmly, “We will look into the problems you raised in due course. For now, please go home!”
“You...” Li Hong stared at her in disbelief. Could it all have been a misunderstanding?
She must check her salary card as soon as possible!
“I’ll believe you when I see the money. Just wait for me. I’ll go visit the bank and then come back for you!” Li Hong turned and left, making her way through the crowd.
Lu Zhaoyang watched her leave. Through the crowd, she noticed Xiang Jinxi sitting on the reception’s beige sofa, enjoying a cup of coffee. He looked cool and detached, as though he did not witness the conflict just now.
Li Hong almost jogged her way out of the reception hall. Xiang Jinxi took a sweeping glance at the staff gathered around him. “Go back to work.”
The crowd dispersed instantly.
Lu Zhaoyang went to him and said, “I will look into this, Mr President.”
She believed that one of the managers dissatisfied with the decision to remove certain departments must have tried to cause trouble.
“Alright.”
Xiang Jinxi walked past her with disinterest.
Lu Zhaoyang had dealt with the conflict well, being able to maintain rational while under stress. He found his admiration for her growing more and more.
Lu Zhaoyang followed behind him promptly. “There is a meeting at two this afternoon to follow up with Thunderbolt Corp on our projects. Will you be there?”
“No.”
“...”
She could not understand Xiang Jinxi at all.
