Her sudden outburst startled everyone.
Everyone’s face turned awkward, and they all looked down sheepishly.
"Hey, lift your heads, let’s speak freely for a mont." Qiao Rui spoke lazily to the group: "Weren’t we just having a lively chat?"
This made them lower their heads even more.
For a mont, no one knew what to say, and the atmosphere was extrely awkward.
Qiao Rui was not in a hurry to return to her office, she just said calmly, "Go ahead and speak, why has everyone fallen silent? How can I know your demands if no one speaks? If you speak up, maybe I can et your requests."
But no matter what she said, no one spoke, creating an extrely awkward scene.
Qiao Rui just looked at them calmly and, seeing that no one spoke, sneered lightly: "I thought you were all pretty tough, turns out you’re just cowards."
Soone frowned, clearly impatient, but still didn’t lift their head.
"Since you’re unhappy with being called cowards, why not resist boldly? You don’t dare to speak up, hiding and complaining behind backs, who are you trying to disgust?" Qiao Rui raised her voice, her montum was very strong.
At this point, Fang Mo and Li Chongming both stepped forward.
Li Chongming imdiately looked at everyone in the office and said to Qiao Rui, "President Qiao, what happened? I’ll handle it."
Seeing him say this, Qiao Rui smiled and said, "Hmm, Assistant Li, later have them co to my office one by one, I want to hear their individual reports on their doubts or dissatisfaction with ."
Li Chongming imdiately understood that these people had been complaining in the office and were overheard by President Qiao.
He nodded. "Yes, I will arrange it."
"Fang Mo, co with ." Qiao Rui glanced at Fang Mo, whose face still showed injuries; after all, it was a short ti, and recovering wasn’t that quick.
"Yes, madam." Fang Mo was very respectful in his attitude towards Qiao Rui.
This surprised everyone slightly.
But everyone thought it was because Pei Liyan was fond of Qiao Rui, so even Pei Liyan’s special assistant showed such respect to Qiao Rui.
Once Fang Mo entered the president’s office and closed the door, the people outside finally looked at Li Chongming.
"What exactly happened just now?" Li Chongming asked sternly.
"Nothing much happened." Soone replied. "We were just chatting idly."
"What are you trying to do?" Li Chongming asked sternly again.
"Assistant Li, we know you’re the new president’s favorite now, you rember her kindness, but we don’t. We just think she’s just climbed up by relying on a man."
Li Chongming was taken aback, his brow furrowing tightly, he said sternly, "What does that have to do with you? Gossiping behind backs, do you think that’s the quality an employee should have? I’m grateful to the president, but I believe, first and foremost, we should conduct ourselves without guilt."
No one said anything.
Li Chongming understood their hearts were full of resentnt.
But he still said coldly, "Do you really want to lose this job? Or are you just venting your dissatisfaction, complaining a little? Think it through, if you don’t want to work, you can resign."
Suddenly, no one spoke again.
Li Chongming continued, "I also see that the new President Qiao doesn’t lack a few of us, but it’s out of compassion for our difficulty in finding new jobs that she hasn’t fired us. But if we don’t cherish this, then there’s no room for rcy."
They still didn’t speak, but it was clear that they didn’t agree with Li Chongming’s words.
On the contrary, they were quite mocking, most of them curling their lips in derision.
Li Chongming said no more.
He could tell, when President Qiao calls them in, they’ll speak one by one, and they’ll get to know President Qiao’s might.
In the president’s office, Qiao Rui glanced at Fang Mo.
Fang Mo, seeing Pei Liyan was not there, said, "Madam, has the president already gone back?"
"Yes." Qiao Rui nodded, "He’s left first, saying he lent you to us."
Fang Mo paused as a ssage ca through on his phone.
He took it out and glanced at it, only to see it was a ssage from Pei Liyan: In the afternoon, follow Qiao Rui’s arrangents in everything.
Fang Mo was relieved.
"Madam, if you have any tasks for , please assign them."
"No worries." Qiao Rui said, "You’re here to help hold the fort, nothing else to do, just sit outside and have tea."
"Actually, I can help with checking the accounts." Fang Mo said.
"There’s no need for you to do that." Qiao Rui smiled, "Gai Yin is leading people to check, don’t worry."
"Yes." Fang Mo nodded.
Qiao Rui glanced at him, "Your injuries aren’t completely healed, are they?"
"It’s all right, just superficial injuries." Fang Mo smiled awkwardly, a bit embarrassed, "Thank you for your concern, madam."
Seeing him like this, Qiao Rui couldn’t help finding it amusing, Fang Mo was indeed unlucky, getting beaten like this, Song Xun’s hand was a bit harsh.
"Later, just sit outside, have tea or coffee, don’t worry about anything."
Fang Mo was a bit concerned, "But, madam, I noticed those people aren’t very polite to you."
"Then just watch how I deal with these people." Qiao Rui said lightly.
Fang Mo was a bit worried, he always felt that managing people was the most difficult thing.
Madam’s casual attitude—was it overly optimistic?
But since madam had arranged it this way, Fang Mo couldn’t say much, he just nodded.
"All right, you can go out now." Qiao Rui said, "Tell Hu Qiming to co in."
"Okay." As Fang Mo went out, he saw the tense atmosphere outside.
Li Chongming seed to be earnestly persuading them, but they seed to disregard him.
"Hu Qiming." Fang Mo said solemnly, "You can enter the president’s office now!"
The director of the president’s office, Hu Qiming, was caught off guard.
He didn’t expect to be called by na right away after soone ca out.
He looked at Fang Mo, then at everyone else, and stood up to head towards the president’s office.
Everyone’s gaze was puzzled, but they still waited.
Fang Mo sat outside, looking at them calmly.
Entering the office, Hu Qiming saw Qiao Rui and greeted, "President Qiao, you wanted to see ."
Qiao Rui was holding her phone, which had Hu Qiming’s details displayed.
She looked up and pulled her lips into a faint smile, "Hu Qiming, graduated from D University with a major in Chinese, has been working at the Qiao Family since graduation, and is now a senior employee with fifteen years of experience."
Hu Qiming paused and looked at Qiao Rui with a half-smiling expression. "President Qiao, this is all in my resu, everyone knows."
"Looks like Director Hu wants to talk about sothing others don’t know." Qiao Rui smiled as she spoke.
Hu Qiming’s heart skipped a beat, looking at Qiao Rui in surprise.
Could she really know anything?
Qiao Rui smiled and said, "You’ve been maintaining long-term extramarital relationships with two female secretaries in our office. These two secretaries don’t know about each other being your lover, and though your wife suspects you, she doesn’t have any evidence."
