Ever since Qi Yan was exposed and fled the office yesterday, she returned home and did countless mental preparations. She still harboured a trace of optimism even when she came to work this morning as usual.
However, the worst outcome she dared not and didn’t want to think about had happened in the end.
“Qi Yan, you are officially dismissed.”
The head of the HR department issued the superior’s decision, gave Qi Yan the dismissal compensation, and told her to pack her things and get out.
Also, she couldn’t even meet Qin Chu once.
Other than Qin Chu, even the group of people she used to be on good terms with, even her best friend Fang Ke Xin, who used to protect her brainlessly, shunned Qi Yan, let alone help her.
No one would help her. No one dared to help her.
Those close to her wouldn’t help her, not to mention those who had nothing to do with her. Those who didn’t like her even wanted to bang on the gongs and drums.
To be honest, some people couldn’t believe that the true colours of Qi Yan, who appeared to be so gentle and kind, could be so hateful while Miss Xiang, who they used to think that she was dainty and domineering, was the innocent little poor thing.
After this incident, their three outlooks <sup>[1]</sup> were turned upside down. They felt creeped out as they recalled Qi Yan’s face in the video.
Even those who used to hate Xiang Yi Mo felt that Miss Xiang was really miserable.
In addition, because the video captured the whole course of events, even the scene where Qin Chu begged humbly was filmed.
Many of the employees discussed this enthusiastically.
In particular, the group of people, who did not hate Xiang Yi Mo from the start and felt that Qin Chu was blind, were very comfortable seeing the footage of Qin Chu doing a one-eighty. Although they didn’t dare to say anything outwardly because Qin Chu was their boss, they mocked him frequently in private.
While they were secretly happy, they cursed the scum for deserving it.
While watching it was very gratifying, they were also somewhat worried about a certain young lady’s physical condition.
This video was viewed by many of the upper management and several big shareholders. The matter of Qin Chu’s unreasonable behaviour in his relationships wasn’t too big or too small.
To put it mildly, regardless of whether it was a matter of having lousy discernment of people or his scum nature, it was Qin Chu’s personal matter.
After all, when it came to relationships, how many of them were pure and clean? Most importantly, they were not necessarily nobler than anyone else.
However, on a larger scale, the matter of Qin Chu was openly discussed. Whether or not a word of this had gotten out, it was certain that everyone in Shangcheng knew about this.
So it was only a matter of time before this news would leak.
And if word of this got out, it could easily have negative repercussions for the company and cause financial losses.
However, this was only one of the many issues.
Secondly, if Qin Chu had offended Miss Xiang, wouldn’t that be the same as offending the Xiang family backing Miss Xiang?
If it wasn’t for the fact that there was a superior above Qin Chu, the chairman, Madam Qin, who was very close to the Xiang family, they would have wanted to fire him.
As a result, the senior management had quite a lot to say about Qin Chu.
Some people found big issues upon seeing this small matter. They felt that since Qin Chu had poor discernment of people with respect to his relationships, he might cause problems one day when it came to significant matters and was not up to the task.
Not only did Madam Qin watch the short clip, but she also received surveillance evidence from Lu Wang Chen.
After watching the video, Madam Qin Fang Hao was furious and slammed the phone that was playing the video on Qin Chu. She snorted coldly. “You are really my good son. Is this how you take care of your younger sister Mo Mo? Qin Chu, has your conscience been eaten by dogs?”
“To me, I would say that Mo Mo scolded you well. You are indeed no match for those three children your age. You are not worthy of Mo Mo.”
The more she said, the colder Qin Fang Hao’s measuring gaze became. “Now that you’ve done such things, if you hadn’t crawled out of this mother’s belly, I’d want to wonder if you were my Qin family’s offspring. But unfortunately, you didn’t inherit from me….”
Halfway through her speech, her red lips pursed into a straight line.
She had little affection for this son. At that moment, she looked at Qin Chu with increasing displeasure. This was especially so after she returned to the country and discovered that Qin Chu’s biological father, the husband who married into her Qin family, was suspected of cheating on her.
Although she couldn’t believe that her husband, who had been a good husband for so many years, was financially supporting a woman behind her back? But the seeds of suspicion had been planted as she investigated this matter.
