"Vice President Chen, weâre returning to our posts now."
Hei Zi hurriedly spoke to Chen Yaowen.
"Hmph, whatâs the use of the companyâs rules and regulations if you only change after making mistakes? Both of you left your post during work hours and chatted leisurely; three monthsâ salary will be deducted."
Chen Yaowen coldly snorted. He was well aware of the friendly relationship between these two and Ye Luo, so he decided to make an example of Hei Zi and his companion.
Upon hearing that three monthsâ salary would be deducted at once, the faces of Hei Zi and Hu Zi turned extremely ugly, filled with bitterness. Losing three monthsâ salary was a significant loss.
"Vice President Chen, isnât this a bit too excessive?"
At this moment, Ye Luo finally spoke up. He knew all too well that this manâs actions were aimed at him. No matter what, he wouldnât let Hei Zi and Hu Zi take the fall for him.
"Ye Luo, what? You want to stand up for them? If Iâm not mistaken, youâre not even wearing the company security uniform; you must have just arrived at the company, right? Youâre already over two hours late, and according to the companyâs rules and regulations, you should also be punished. Moreover, youâre a deputy director, a leader of the company, so the punishment should be doubled. Now, I declare that youâll lose half a yearâs salary."
Chen Yaowen looked at Ye Luo with a smug expression, his eyes filled with disdain.
Hearing Chen Yaowenâs words, Ye Luo smiled nonchalantly and walked up to Chen Yaowen, speaking lazily, "Vice President Chen, I would like to know what the surname of this company is, and who the owner is?"
Taken aback by Ye Luoâs comment, Chen Yaowen paused, then said, "Of course, Ling Corporation bears the Ling surname, and the owner is Miss Ling Qingya."
"It looks like your head isnât so dumb after all."
Ye Luo smiled at Chen Yaowen, a strange smile on his face.
"What do you mean?"
Chen Yaowen was as confused as a Monk facing an enigma, not understanding what Ye Luo meant.
Bang!
Just then, Ye Luo kicked out fiercely, sending Chen Yaowen flying and crashing heavily to the floor.
This scene shocked everyone in the company; immediately the surrounding employees of Ling Corporation turned to look, all stunned by the sight.
The mighty Vice President of Ling Corporation being attacked by a deputy director from the security department was practically breaking news.
Usually, people would think that Ye Luo was courting death, but the employees of Ling Corporation present knew that Ye Luo was not a simple character. They were aware that although he was officially a deputy director of Ling Corporation, he was actually the fiancé of their boss, Ling Qingya.
"Cough cough..."
Chen Yaowen lay on the ground, emitting severe coughs, his face pale and blood on his lips.
"Vice President Chen!"
At that moment, Hou Dayong and Monkey, among others, all ran over with worried expressions and hastily helped Chen Yaowen up.
"Vice President Chen, are you alright? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Hou Dayong looked at Chen Yaowen with concern.
"Get lost!"
Chen Yaowen angrily shouted, his face burning with rage as he glared at Ye Luo.
"Ye Luo, what is the meaning of this? Are you trying to rebel by daring to attack me?"
Ye Luoâs lips curled into a slight smirk as he laughed disdainfully and walked toward Chen Yaowen.
Watching Ye Luo approach, Chen Yaowenâs face changed, and he hastily retreated several steps, while Hou Dayong and the others all looked on at Ye Luo with faces full of fear, not daring to take action.
"I hit you just to make it clear that youâre not the boss of this company. What right do you have to punish me, to dock half a yearâs salary? Do you know who I am? I am the presidentâs fiancĂ©. Once I marry your President Ling, Ling Corporation will be mine. Believe it or not, I can have you out on your ass right now?"
Ye Luo spoke with an unmatched domineering presence, exuding an aura of supreme authority that intimidated everyone in the room. His words rendered Chen Yaowen completely speechless, feeling intensely frustrated, yet he had to admit it was true. Earlier, he just wanted to give Ye Luo a hard time, never anticipating that this guy would suddenly blow up, forgetting about his status as Ling Qingyaâs fiancĂ©.
"Got it now? So in the future, keep your fawning to a minimum around me. And I know you have your sights set on Ling Qingya. Let me tell you, give up on that idea now, or prepare to get your ass fired from Ling Corporation."
Ye Luo pat Chen Yaowenâs face disdainfully and spat out these words, his eyes filled with a cold disdain.
Seeing Ye Luoâs contemptuous expression, Chen Yaowenâs fists clenched involuntarily, his eyes blazing with unbridled rage. It felt as if there was a fire burning inside him, an impulse he struggled to contain, but in the end, he managed to suppress it with strong self-control.
"Ye Luo, what are you doing?"
Suddenly, a commanding, icy female voice rang out, startling everyone present. Their gazes all sharply turned, and it was Ling Qingya, who had appeared without notice, her lovely face steely, her body radiating a powerful air of authority, eyes slightly annoyed as she stared at Ye Luo.
"Boss... President Ling, what brings you here?"
Upon seeing Ling Qingya, Ye Luoâs expression instantly turned into a playful smile as he looked at her with glee.
Ling Qingya swept Ye Luo with a cold glance, her gaze then falling upon Chen Yaowen: "Vice President Chen, are you alright?"
"Iâm fine, President!"
Chen Yaowen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head.
"Director Hou, take Vice President Chen to the hospital for a check-up. The company will cover all medical expenses."
"Yes, President." Hou Dayong nodded.
"You, come to my office with me."
Ling Qingya told Ye Luo coldly, turning on her heels, the clicking of her high heels echoing crisply as she swiftly left the area.
Ye Luo also hastily followed after her.
Watching Ye Luoâs departing figure, Chen Yaowenâs fists were tightly clenched, as if ready to crush anything in his grasp, his eyes bloodshot.
Ye Luo, I will make sure you die, make you die...
Chen Yaowen roared inside his mind, his body exuding a terrifyingly lethal aura that even made Hou Dayong beside him shudder.
In Ling Corporation, on the twenty-fifth floor, inside Ling Qingyaâs office.
Ling Qingya leaned against her desk, her gaze icily fixed on a seemingly nonchalant Ye Luo in front of her, remaining silent for a long time.
After a long wait while Ling Qingya said nothing, Ye Luo started to feel unsettled and thought to himself what this girl might be up to.
Ye Luo gave Ling Qingya a sly smile and began to speak, "Ling..."
"Ye Luo, do you really consider yourself the owner of Ling Corporation now?"
Ling Qingya cut him off sharply, her voice clear and cold, her whole being conveying the formidable aura of someone in a position of power.
Uh...
Ye Luo was caught off guard, grinning sheepishly: "Of course not, the owner of Ling Corporation is none other than you, President. How could it be me?"
