Zhao Fei never felt so humiliated like this. She had been proud of her status as the chief agent at Chestnut and had never cared about what other people would think of her.
But today, she was actually slapped in front of a security guard! How could she accept this?
She didn't know if Ran Xueyi did this because of them falling out yesterday, but this sort of move was extrely childish!
"Chief Manager Fei?" an employee from the office arrived at the entrance and saw her standing there.
Zhao Fei didn't know the na of this employee but she calculated in her heart that she could use this person to get into the building. "You, are you going inside? Take there with you!"
The employee felt strange by her sudden domineering way of ordering him around. But out of respect towards her as his senior, he still politely walked over towards the entrance and scanned his ID.
It was a different scene when he scanned his ID. It beeped once and the door automatically opened for him as if it was a magical door. He entered first and looked at Zhao Fei, waiting for her to pass through the threshold.
Zhao Fei was happy to free-load on sobody's entry pass. She first threw the security guard a sneer and stepped her feet forward.
Half of her body entered into the building, but just as she was about to completely enter the place, the magical door suddenly closed in on her, trapping her in between!
Although it didn't hurt that much, Zhao Fei's face still cried out in pain.
Who would have thought that the door wouldn't give her any face and slap her too?!
But what Zhao Fei didn't realize was that if she only entered the building without wasting a few seconds to glare at the security guard, the door would have not closed itself on her. Too bad, she was too busy trying to scare off the guard and ended up making a hilarious scene today.
It was also at this mont that Wu Qi went down to the lobby. He had sowhere to go urgently but he saw Zhao Fei being bitten by the door.
Even though this person had betrayed his master, he didn't want the poor door to beco a murderer and used his own fingerprint to open the door.
Zhao Fei finally released herself from the clutches of the door. In a burst of anger and sha, she kicked the door in retaliation before she said, "What's happening?! Senior Wu, why am I banned from entering the building?"
Wu Qi was not fazed by her angry look and calmly said, "It's the president's order to let only employees into the building."
She gritted her teeth and spoke in an even louder voice, "What? Am I not an employee here, too?"
Wu Qi blinked his eyes and said, "Under the company's rule, once an employee has been proven to have acted against the company's best interests and betrayed the trust of the company, they will be evicted and fired imdiately."
It took a few seconds for Zhao Fei to realize what he had just said and flared out again, "What are you talking about? Since when did the company have that rule?"
Wu Qi was not disturbed by her gaze that looked as if she was greatly wronged by everyone. Because of her loud voice, the employees who were minding their own business in the lobby stopped and glanced their way.
This thod of attracting sympathy from others was amazingly executed by Zhao Fei.
Unfortunately, she had to face him, Wu Qi!
Wu Qi chuckled softly and asked the employee who used his ID to let Zhao Fei in instead, "How long have you worked here?"
The employee was scared out of his wits. He was afraid that because of his action earlier, he would be fired too so he didn't hesitate to answer, "I've been working here for a year, Sir! Uh, I apologize for not knowing that I should have not let this person into the building!"
Wu Qi shook his head and said, "It's alright. It was not publicly announced yet. Hm… One year. Then, you must have at least read the rules and regulations of the company, right?"
The employee nodded and honestly said, "It was a requirent for interns to morize the rules. When I was an intern I morized every last one of the rules in the rule book."
"Then, what I just said earlier should be in the rule book, right?" asked Wu Qi again.
"Yes, sir."
Wu Qi waved for him to go ahead before turning his head to glance at Zhao Fei, whose face was turning pale, and asked curiously, "Did you hear it clearly? Even interns have morized the rules in the rule book. Why can't the Chief Manager rember the rules she, herself, has clearly agreed to input into the rule book three years ago?"
When the company first started, Wu Qi helped establish its footing on behalf of Ran Xueyi, who had gone to Ren Country. Because of his experience in life where betrayal was frequently constant, he decided to create a rule book that even the law had to recognize.
He wrote every bit of the rules in the rule book and asked the opinions of Ran Xueyi and Zhao Fei and if they wanted to add so other rules. Ran Xueyi signed it, but Zhao Fei didn't take it to heart as she was busy guiding Feng Huai to beco a fully fledged manager.
She simply agreed to the creation of the rule book verbally before completely forgetting its existence.
Zhao Fei also rembered this part in her mory. However, she didn't want to back down just yet.
She reclaid her calm and coldly said, "Even if it's stated in the rule book, there is no evidence that I went against the company. I didn't do fraud or illegal embezzlent of funds. So, pray tell , just what did I do to lose the trust of the company?"
Wu Qi understood that Zhao Fei was not an easy opponent since she had been at the pinnacle of her position as a star agent for so many years.
However, Wu Qi had stood in front of many storms and winds, just one Zhao Fei won't take him down easily.
"Don't worry, I have all the evidence that will prove your actions against the company," declared Wu Qi. "I'm on my way to the courthouse to file a case against Feng Huai. Miss Zhao, you have claid yourself to be his adamant supporter, you will be suspected to be an accomplice."
"Instead of worrying about others, why not worry about yourself first?" Wu Qi continued to say as he passed by her and went out of the building.
He did not lie about going to the courthouse to file a case of leaking trade secrets and personal information against Feng Huai.
Zhao Fei helplessly watched as Wu Qi got into his car and drove away. He didn't even spare her a glance or drove her out of the building. He was not afraid of her nor worried that she would do sothing else.
This made her heart turn cold.
She went to the office building to gather as much evidence that will allow Feng Huai to get out of prison. His morals should prove him not guilty of the charges that have been given to him by Dauntless. She wanted him to save Feng Huai even if it ant losing a bit of her flesh.
Zhao Fei was slightly disturbed by the words that Wu Qi left to her before he turned away from her. However, she still rembered she had purpose in coming to this place.
She stepped forward unashadly, but before she could even step a free step towards the elevator, the employee who let her in and the other employees who watched the show on the side blocked her path.
"Get out of my sight! Stop blocking my way!" Zhao Fei shouted at them.
If it had been before, these employees would smile at her and treat her with respect.
But unexpectedly, their gazes no longer held the previous respect and politeness that they showed to her.
Only disdain and indifference could be felt from them.
"Miss Zhao, the company announced that only employees can enter this building today. There is no visitation allowed nor entry from non-employees," a woman in a neat black skirt and white shirt said to her.
Zhao Fei glared at the woman and recognized her, it was the employee who worked directly under her. She was stunned and said, "You…"
The woman incited the others to speak as well and stepped forward to drive Zhao Fei out of the building.
"Miss Zhao, your great presence is not welco in our office. Please return!"
"Leave!"
"We can't greet you respectfully anymore. But at least, allow us to show you out of this place!"
Even if Zhao Fei was headstrong and shaless, she could not possibly win against a crowd of people who are determined to drive her out.
In the end, she stumbled outside of the building and stood before the security guard that she showed contempt with.
The guard stared at Zhao Fei for a few seconds before he said, "Miss Zhao is fired?"
Zhao Fei: "..."
Earlier, Zhao Fei threatened that she would fire him. But the situation was overturned and she was the one who got publicly driven out and was also fired!
This shaful ending was truly unexpected.
