Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Domineering Female CEO
"President Lin, this brat dares to attack my son within the company, and I was about to have someone deal with him," Zheng Mingcheng said directly.
Lin Ruoxi turned to Su Luo and asked, "What’s going on?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Su Luo replied, "Someone insisted on causing trouble, so I simply disciplined them a bit."
"President Lin, look, he admitted it. He must be severely punished," Zheng Mingcheng quickly said.
"He’s not one of our company’s people, what’s there to severely punish?" Lin Ruoxi frowned and said.
At that moment, one of the security guards spoke up, "He... is from our company."
Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi and Zheng Mingcheng, among others, were all surprised.
"You’re saying he is from our company?" Lin Ruoxi looked at the security guard.
The security guard replied, "Yes, President Lin, if you don’t believe me, just ask him." He was a longstanding employee of the security department, often on duty, and he was fairly familiar with the employees who frequently entered and exited the company.
Lin Ruoxi looked at Su Luo.
Su Luo could only admit it, and with a wry smile he said, "I indeed am an employee of the company, working in the marketing department, except I am currently on leave!"
Disbelief filled Lin Ruoxi’s beautiful eyes.
Who was Su Luo?
Leaving aside those unpleasant memories, in Lin Ruoxi’s impression, he was the Divine Doctor who had saved Grandpa. Even Grandpa Wei felt inferior to his medical skills!
Besides, he was also a master of martial arts with formidable Inner Strength. Even the most exemplary disciple in the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall was no match for him!
Even when facing assassins, he was terrifyingly calm, resolving the situations effortlessly!
Such a person was clearly no ordinary individual!
Honestly, if it weren’t for the bus pervert incident and accidentally witnessing her taking a bath, Lin Ruoxi would have had a very good impression of Su Luo. And even with those unpleasant memories, Lin Ruoxi had to admit that Su Luo was exceptional.
Looking around Jiangbei, there probably weren’t many of his peers who could match his excellence!
But Su Luo... was actually an employee in her company?
And just an ordinary employee at that?
After all, if Su Luo had been part of the management, she would have recognized him and not have been utterly clueless!
"You’re actually an employee in the marketing department?" Zheng Mingcheng snorted coldly.
He was the Vice President managing the marketing department. One of his own employees had hit his son, which was utterly audacious!
"Since you’re an employee of the company, that makes things even easier!" Zheng Mingcheng directly ordered the security guards, "Security, take him down for me!"
Although Lin Ruoxi hadn’t given an order, Zheng Mingcheng was the Vice President. His commands were something the security staff naturally wouldn’t dare to disregard.
But, just at that moment, Lin Ruoxi suddenly spoke up, "Who dares to be rash?"
At her words, the security guards’ faces immediately changed, and they hurriedly backed off.
Zheng Mingcheng’s face turned somewhat unsightly; he hadn’t expected Lin Ruoxi to intervene, which made him lose face.
"President Lin, he hit my son," Zheng Mingcheng said, looking at Lin Ruoxi.
President Lin replied, "He wouldn’t hit someone for no reason." She then turned to the security guards and asked, "What exactly happened?"
"We reviewed the surveillance footage, and it was indeed him who struck first," the head of security quickly said.
"What was the reason?" Lin Ruoxi asked.
"The reason... that, that..." the head of security stammered.
When they reviewed the footage, they had also heard the verbal exchange and knew it was Zheng Lü and Shen Zhiyue who provoked Su Luo first, but since Zheng Lü was the son of Zheng Mingcheng, President Zheng, they naturally sided with Zheng Lü.
"Let me help them out and explain," Su Luo said with a faint smile, and he simplified the whole story once over.
Lin Ruoxi’s face turned slightly cold as she looked at the security chief and asked in a chilly voice, "Is that so?"
With surveillance as evidence, the security chief did not dare to conceal the truth and could only nod reluctantly, "Reporting to President Lin, it is... yes!"
Lin Ruoxi immediately understood the reason and said directly, "You’re fired from the company!"
The color drained from the security chief’s face as he stammered, "President Lin, I..."
"Do I need to repeat myself?" Lin Ruoxi’s voice grew colder.
Despite being a woman and not particularly old, she was known for her stern methods within the company. Otherwise, she couldn’t have suppressed those shrewd and cunning shareholders.
The security chief could only look hurriedly at Zheng Mingcheng, as it was to help Zheng Mingcheng’s son that he had acted without discernment, attempting to capture Su Luo.
Zheng Mingcheng was also aware of this, so he tentatively spoke up, "President Lin, the security chief was just performing his duties. Couldn’t we let it slide this once?"
Lin Ruoxi countered icily, "Was he performing his duties, or was he trying to curry favor with you, you should be clear about that, shouldn’t you?"
Zheng Mingcheng’s face changed dramatically at her words.
Lin Ruoxi continued, "Your son is not an employee of our company, yet he struts around giving orders and even started to command our security department. President Zheng, I’m giving you face this time and won’t pursue this further, but there won’t be a next time. Do you understand?"
Zheng Mingcheng, nearly fifty years old, now felt a wave of intimidation facing this woman in her twenties, his forehead breaking out in sweat.
He quickly said, "I understand, President Lin."
"Everyone may leave," Lin Ruoxi said, looking at the other executives of the company.
They hurriedly dispersed.
Then, she turned to Su Luo and said indifferently, "Come with me."
Su Luo smiled and followed her.
After they left, Zheng Lü clenched his teeth in anger, "Dad, that Su Luo hit me, and we’re just letting it go?"
Zheng Mingcheng wished he could slap Zheng Lü twice more, "What the hell else do you want, to completely ruin your father’s position as vice president before you’re satisfied?"
Zheng Lü promptly shut his mouth.
"Useless."
Shen Zhiyue said resentfully, throwing up her hands in frustration and storming off, leaving Zheng Lü feeling even more aggrieved yet daring not to lash out, his frustration growing by the moment.
...
Inside the CEO’s office.
"Su Luo, shouldn’t you give me an explanation?" Lin Ruoxi asked, looking intently at Su Luo who was seated on the sofa.
"What explanation?" Su Luo inquired.
Lin Ruoxi huffed, "Why are you working at our company?"
"I... have always been," Su Luo said with a bitter smile. "After graduation, I joined Qingxi Group. It’s just that you, the esteemed president, did not recognize me, that’s all."
Su Luo felt somewhat emotional; if he hadn’t received the cultivation inheritance, he probably would have returned to his regular job by now.
Lin Ruoxi looked a bit taken aback. She couldn’t comprehend how someone as capable as Su Luo had been content to be just an ordinary employee in her company.
But recognizing that it was Su Luo’s private affair, Lin Ruoxi tactfully refrained from asking further. Instead, she asked, "So, you’ve known me for a while and knew I was the company president?"
"Yes," Su Luo nodded, not immediately grasping the purpose of her question.
Lin Ruoxi gritted her teeth and said, "If that’s the case, then why did you, knowing full well who I was, have the audacity to grope me on the bus?"
This was something that had gnawed at her heart, even more infuriating to her than Su Luo walking in on her bathing.
After all, stumbling upon someone bathing could be chalked up to an accident, but groping on a bus was a despicable and shameless act, indicative of moral bankruptcy!
