Chapter 197: Solved
Translator: Henyee Editor: Henyee
The secretaries came out of Xiao Jing’s office with red eyes. Selina and Linda, who had been scolded the most, even cried. Even the secretary general looked terrible and could hardly hold back her tears.
Yueyue stood outside and looked at them, not knowing what to say. She could only purse her lips together and carry on working. However, in the other secretaries’ eyes, she looked indifferent, even gloating over their misfortune. Linda walked over to Yueyue angrily and glared at her. “You knew what would happen, right? Or you just want to watch our jokes? Yueyue, I didn’t know you were this kind of person!” She exclaimed with a cold voice.
Yueyue frowned and said seriously, “I told you not to submit the unchecked files to him, but you didn’t believe me! President Xiao is not so easy to get along with as you have imagined, and he is not a fool. If he is really so incapable as you thought, how could he work in the Qiao’s International Group, rather than his family company, the Xiao’s Group?”
The other secretaries wanted to refute her, but were stopped by Merry who said icily, “Haven’t you got enough scolding yet? You made mistakes but I have to take responsibility for this. Yueyue is right. We underestimated President Xiao’s ability and overestimated his temperament. President Xiao was able to help President Qiao out of trouble that year, which shows he isn’t an ordinary person. Work hard from now on! If anyone dares to gather at the pantry and chat during working time, give me your resignation letter and find another job!”
Then she looked at Yueyue and said without any expression, “Yueyue, well done. Keep trying.” Then she turned her eyes to the other secretaries. “You should learn from Yueyue! Can’t you just check the documents well? If you can’t live up to President Xiao’s expectations, hand in your resignation letter and go back to elementary school.”

Hearing the secretary general’s words, Yueyue was not happy at all. Though the secretary general was praising her, she was actually making enemies for her. If she had so many enemies from now, how could she continue to work peacefully in the secretariat in the future? But she didn’t do anything wrong. She warned the secretary general and advised her to stop them, but she just ignored her? Was this her fault?
Selina was scolded the harshest. When she heard the secretary general’s words, she immediately snorted. “We are not as good as Yueyue. We were all scolded but Yueyue wasn’t. We’re not as capable as Yueyue. Since Yueyue is so good, let her check these documents.”
Yueyue frowned and said angrily, “I just did my job. Besides, it’s not my fault. You didn’t take your job seriously and still dared to drink President Xiao’s coffee. I’ve told you President Xiao is not as nice as you imagined, but you didn’t believe me. Why do you blame me now?”
Wen Mei sneered. “Then why were we all scolded except you? Is it because you have some love affair with President Xiao Xiao?”
“Don’t be so rude. The previous time I was scolded by President Xiao Xiao was because I made a mistake in the work, so since then I dared not neglect my work!” Yueyue scowled. Why didn’t she find that these people could be so ugly in personality and actions before?
“Scolded? I think you’ve been caressed by him many times!” Xiao Xing stared at Yueyue sharply and said coldly, “Don’t play innocent in front of us. We’re the most innocent. We were scolded for no reason and…”
“Tell me what love affair I have with her? How did I caress her?” Xiao Jing’s voice suddenly rang out. He leaned against the glass door of the secretariat with an icy look on his face, “If you can’t come up with some evidence today, I’ll immediately ask the legal department to sue you for damaging my reputation and slander.” Xiao Jing waved the cellphone in his hand, with which he recorded what Wen Mei and Xiao Xing said just now.

Merry’s face sank. ” When did Xiao Jing come here? She put all her attention on Yueyue just now and didn’t notice Xiao Jing! Damn it!”
“President Xiao… we are just kidding…” Wen Mei said awkwardly, “We didn’t mean that.”
“You didn’t mean that?” Xiao Jing cast a cold glance at them and said, “I just told you not to gather for gossiping. And you forgot it so soon?” With that, Xiao Jing callously said, “Since you like chatting so much, get the hell out of here, except…” Xiao Jing looked at Yueyue and asked, “What’s your name?”
“My name is An Hao, but everyone calls me Yueyue.”Xiao Jing nodded and looked at the other secretaries, “Except An Hao, you’re all fired! The Qiao’s International Group can’t afford you. Now pack up and get the hell out of here. Do you hear me?”
“Besides, the Qiao’s International Group will sue you for malfeasance.” With that, Xiao Jing turned around and walked to his office. The other secretaries, including the secretary general, all gaped at Xiao Jing and quickly ran after him. Merry ran over and stood in his way whilst saying angrily, “President Xiao, I’m the secretary general of the President’s Office. You can’t just dismiss me like this. At least you have to give me a justifiable reason.”
“Isn’t malfeasance enough? Or shall I show you the evidence about you taking bribes?” Xiao Jing sneered and cruelly said, “Now get the hell out of here. You had better leave quietly. Don’t try to pull any tricks. Otherwise, I’ll make you stay in prison for years with the evidence that is in my hands. You know what you’ve done all these years, right?”
The secretaries were all shocked and took a step back. They dared not chase Xiao Jing anymore. An Hao, still standing where they left her, was dumbfounded. It was just over an hour and now only she was left in the secretariat? Even the secretary general was fired!
Xiao Jing walked into his office and kept silent for a while before picking up his cellphone and calling Qiao Liang. He said indifferently, “They were all solved. You can now arrange your men into the secretariat. Then the secretariat will be ours.”
“I’ve investigated An Hao. She has no special background, nor has she any connections with those people.” Xiao Jing looked at the monitoring pictures on his computer screen, raised his eyebrows, and gave a faint smile, “You can definitely rest assured. They were all solved. And I’ll keep an eye on Vice President. Yes. When will you come back?”
On the other side, Qiao Liang said, “I’m in Sweden.”
Xiao Jing bristled with frustration and yelled, “Qiao Liang, screw you!” Every time something big happens in the company, this guy is absent!
