“Why can’t I? The company is mine, and I can fire whoever I want!” Li was sullen. “And, didn’t I tell you not to call me brother-in-law at the company? It is not appropriate!”
The merciless words of her brother-in-law made Xu Jing feel desperate. Even Yu Lili herself was dumbstruck. What was going on? Li wanted to keep her and fire Xu Jing, a supervisor who had worked here for years? After she provoked him like that and did all that, she ended up with the promotion? What the heck?
Yu Lili felt that she was in a dream, while others had been cheering. “Yu Lili is the new supervisor?”
“S**t! With her ability, it is only fair that she becomes the supervisor. Don’t forget who helped you to manage the case of the Four Seasons Village!”
“Yes, there is also my case of Wanli technology. If it wasn’t for her, I must have been killed by Xu Jing!”
“Ah, so you have all been helped. I thought I was the only one. I was even wondering if she was secretly in love with me…”
“Hey! You think too much. Lili is a G.o.ddess. Do you know what that is? That is something for appreciation instead of relations.h.i.+p!”
With the discussion going on, Yu Lili was still in a trance. Xu Jing could not accept it and shouted, “How do you do this? What is Yu Lili? Can she lead this department well? Brother-in-law, don’t look at her pretty face, if…”
“Are you saying that I value faces over ability?” Li’s face was gloomy. “If this is the case, you would have been fired a long while ago. You really think I don’t know what you’re doing behind my back? Xu Jing, don’t force me to put everything into words.”
Xu Jing was shocked by that. The boss did not look at her, but to Yu Lili and said, “Yu, you should go back first and come back when you have recovered. With your injury, it would be terrible if you got scars.”
Yu Lili suddenly realized what had happened and stuttered, “Mr. Li, are you serious?”
“Of course.” Li’s face eased. “I know your ability clearly, and the report you wrote a few days ago was excellent. I believe that you are a good fit for the job. And you also seem to be quite popular. Keep it up.”
Yu Lili now fully accepted the reality, looking full of joy and feeling touched. With Xu Jing on top of her, Yu Lili had never gotten any big projects, and she had never had any chance to take the lead. She thought she could only show her ability to her colleagues…
So, so unexpected.
Yu Lili nodded excitedly and said loudly, “Will do!”
Li nodded with satisfaction, “Go back first, I will let the driver take you.” ”
No, it’s fine. I can go back on my own!”
“That’s not necessary. Go downstairs and I will let the driver wait for you at the door.”
As the boss insisted, she decided not to take a taxi and nodded. “Thank you, Mr. Li.” Li’s eyes were curled, with a trace of strange flas.h.i.+ng which no one had noticed. Then he immediately pressed the elevator and went back upstairs.
Everyone watched Li’s departure and cheered, “Great, our spring is coming!”
