“He’s finally gone. I just can’t bear to see this guy having it good. He keeps pulling a long face all day. I don’t even know who he’s putting on airs for! And he’s even lowering our standards.
He’s the only person here who’s so poor. He’s probably the only one who wants the company’s rundown apartnt!”
“That’s right. He always acts as if he is very capable. But he got fired now, didn’t he? No matter how capable he is, the higher-ups will not hire him. I heard that Lu Ming offended so big shot and was fired by the Human Resources departnt.”
“Big shot? Who is it? How can soone of Lu Ming’s status et such an important person? Does anyone know what exactly happened? How bad could the offense be? Don’t tell he beat up the big shot?”
“I’m not sure. I only know that once he’s gone, we’ll be the ones being praised by the higher-ups during etings. If you ask , it’s impossible to rely on one’s abilities. We might as well rely on our connections. It’s good that he has left. He’s bad luck.”
…
All around, whisperings were swirling but lowering the volu was just deceiving oneself.
Hearing these things, Lu Ming simply lowered his eyes and did not say anything.
He had placed first in the recruitnt exercise in this company and even in the interview. Perhaps… outstanding people would inevitably be envied by others.
Usually, those people would ostracize him in all sorts of ways. When they found an opportunity, they would intentionally or unintentionally trip him up.
But he was used to it.
After all, it was the sa during schooldays.
“Hey, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pack up and get out of here!”
The young man in casual clothes said with a an expression. He was the one who disliked Lu Ming the most in the entire company. As long as Lu Ming was around, he would be number two for 10,000 years!
To him, Lu Ming was a stumbling block to his reaching the peak of his life!
Just when he thought that he would be suppressed by Lu Ming for the rest of his life, God was helping him.
He said smugly, “Serves you right! You can’t bla others for your own demise. I heard that the big shot has already said that no company should hire you!”
He paused for a mont before continuing, “I’m afraid that the next ti we et, you’ll already be a beggar, right? Why don’t you say a few nice things to ? Perhaps I’ll give you so money next ti!”
Derisive laughter followed.
“Gao Xuewei! Don’t you think you’ve gone too far?!”
A woman with a ponytail stood up and retorted, “I think you’re just jealous of Lu Ming!”
Gao Xuewei rolled his eyes. “Ji Yu, please understand the situation now. If it was in the past, it would be fine, but now, he’s the unlucky one! Why am I jealous of him? Jealous that he’s going to beco a beggar?”
Ji Yu was the senior who helped Lu Ming apply for an apartnt. She was also the only person who treated him sincerely in this company.
She frowned and said, “Sothing must have gone wrong…”
She had seen Lu Ming’s ability with her own eyes. He was so outstanding that the company would have spent a lot of money to retain him.
“It was just an accidental offense. Was there a need to be so ruthless?”?she thought.
“There must be another reason…”
At this mont, the director of the Human Resources departnt happened to step out to make coffee. He looked at Lu Ming who was still at his work desk and asked, “Why haven’t you left? Don’t tell you don’t want to leave. Let tell you, our company can’t tolerate an arrogant person like you.”
When Ji Yu saw him, she voiced her concerns. “Director Ma, Lu Ming has been working diligently every day and he has never been late. Furthermore, his performance has always been the best among his peers. What cri has he committed to get fired?”
“What cri?”
Director Ma sipped his coffee leisurely and said, “Lu Ming has indeed done a good job. He just doesn’t know how to conduct himself.”
In other words, the rumors were true.
Ji Yu clenched her fists and said unhappily, “Just because of this? Don’t you think it’s unfair?”
“Ji Yu, are you talking about fairness here?”
Director Ma had an odd expression on his face. He said, “Offending the higher-up was Lu Ming’s biggest mistake. He didn’t know how to conduct himself. He offended that person this ti; who will he offend next?”
“But Lu Ming is not such a person…”
Ji Yu tried to retort.
Director Ma snorted and interrupted her. “Who are you to him? How can you vouch for him? Lu Ming can go anywhere, but he can’t stay at Wanke Real Estate!”
In his view, if Lu Ming stayed, he would only drag Wanke Real Estate down with him!
Moreover, the higher-up had given a death order. If they could not chase Lu Ming away, he would be the one to leave!
He had worked for so many years, and the other party was just a rookie without any background. He did not even have to do anything. He just gave the directive to resolve this matter.
Seeing that Ji Yu still wanted to say sothing, he threatened, “This is not sothing I can interfere with. Even if I allow him to stay, it’s useless.”
Furthermore, he had no reason to risk everything for a stranger like Lu Ming.
“This is an order from the CEO himself. If you dare to talk nonsense again, don’t bla for being uncivil. I’ll make you two scram together!”
With that, he returned to his office.
Ji Yu pursed her lips. She had been too naive.
She patted Lu Ming’s shoulder and said, “It’s alright. They fired you here but there will be other places willing to hire you. With your ability, I believe that you can make a na for yourself anywhere.”
Then, as she helped him to pack up, she said, “Don’t be sad. This kind of thing is quite common. I hope you won’t doubt yourself because of this. You didn’t do anything wrong. If you have any difficulties after you leave, feel free to look for .”
Although she said that, her heart was still heavy.
It was rare to et a junior that she took right to.
“I’m not rich, but I’ll do my best to help you.”
She turned around and saw that Lu Ming was not as upset as she had imagined. Instead, he was very calm.
It was as if being fired had nothing to do with him.
Ji Yu thought that he was already numbed, so she consoled him, “Everyone has a low period; this will pass eventually. Don’t be sad.”
Lu Ming could not help but laugh. This senior really cared for him.
He explained, “I’m really not sad. Do you believe that they will beg to stay later?”
Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Ji Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
Of course, she did not take his words seriously at all. After all, she was well aware of the family background of this junior. How could he possibly make the higher-ups do such a thing?
At this mont, an announcent was suddenly broadcast!
“All senior executives, please co to the conference room imdiately to attend a closed-door eting!”
“I repeat, please put aside your work and co to the conference room imdiately!”
