Chapter 130: Chapter 013: Making Enemies
Long Fei didn’t know why his appetite had become so huge, as if he could swallow an entire cow.
The thing is, people say the more you eat, the more you poop.
He just ate without pooping, as if the food was completely digested the moment it hit his stomach.
After finishing the last cauliflower, Long Fei wiped his mouth and flashed a silly smile at Lin Yingying, "Director Lin, are you satisfied?"
"Glutton!"
Lin Yingying dropped the comment and went to the front desk to pay the bill.
Long Fei had a drink of water and followed her out the door.
She got into her car without caring for Long Fei and called out to him, "I’m leaving, you walk back!"
"What?"
Long Fei exclaimed, "Are you serious? You just use someone and then drop them like they’re nothing?"
"What do you know? I want you to exercise a bit, afraid you’ll stuff yourself to death!"
Lin Yingying glanced at him and sped off.
"Who said I’m stuffed?"
Long Fei muttered as he watched the sports car drive away, then hailed a taxi to go back.
Walking alone on the streets at night is not safe for a big guy like him; who knows if someone might try to rob him... or worse.
In a seaside villa on the eastern side of the city, a girl sat on the couch hugging her knees, sobbing to a woman, "Auntie, you have to stand up for me! That Lin Shanshan has gone too far, forcing me to call myself ’little cousin’ in front of everyone. Now I’m the joke of the whole company."
This was Zheng Lili, who had left the company feeling aggrieved and ran to her aunt’s place.
Her aunt was none other than Zheng Tuo’s sister, Zheng Fang.
With only one son, Zheng Fang doted on her niece like a daughter all her life.
As soon as she heard what happened, she frowned and asked, "How did you get into a conflict with Shanshan? She’s studying, you’re working; how did you even meet?"
Zheng Lili said, "It’s all because of a damn security guard at the headquarters. I went to settle scores with him today, but he had Lin Shanshan backing him up. Lin Shanshan took his side, so she took the chance to make an example of me."
Zheng Fang took a sip of tea and frowned, "That guard is really out of line. No matter what, you’re the HR director’s daughter; he should have given you some respect."
Zheng Lili instigated, "Exactly! Not only did he insult my dad, but he also talked about you! Said you don’t distinguish between public and private matters, that you abuse your power and put my dad in the HR director’s position. He also said..."
Zheng Lili paused, her eyes swirling.
Zheng Fang set down her teacup, her voice growing fierce, "What else did he say?"
Zheng Lili continued, "He also said that you and my dad will get what’s coming to you sooner or later and that I should watch out."
"Scoundrel!"
Zheng Fang slammed the table in frustration and cursed out loud, "Who does he think he is, a smelly security guard daring to gossip about senior management. I’ll make a call right now; your dad will fire him tomorrow!"
Zheng Lili felt secretly delighted, thinking to herself that a smelly security guard dared to compete with Miss Zheng.
Her aunt was the company’s vice president and also the wife of the second-largest shareholder, Lin Guohao.
With just a word from her aunt, Long Fei was certain to lose his job.
The moment the phone connected, and before Zheng Tuo could speak, Zheng Fang started scolding, "Zheng Tuo, what kind of people are you managing in the company? A little security guard dares to flap his gums, fire him first thing tomorrow."
Zheng Tuo looked confused and asked, "What security guard?"
Zheng Fang cursed, "Don’t play dumb with me, it’s that security guard who bullied Lili today!"
Zheng Tuo immediately realized his daughter must have gone to Zheng Fang to tattle.
He tried to console Zheng Fang, "Sister, things aren’t as simple as you think. That security guard not only has a good relationship with Lin Shanshan, but he’s also very close to Old Master Zhou. If we rashly fire him now, I’m afraid there will be objections from above."
"Old Master Zhou?"
Zheng Fang frowned and asked, "How can you become more cowardly as you get older? Does the company belong to the Lin Family or the Zhou’s?"
Zheng Tuo, scolded into submission, meekly said, "Then I’ll call a meeting tomorrow to discuss it. You know how the company has changed; for personnel appointments, the president’s signature is needed for them to take effect. I’m afraid Lin Yingying might also favor that security guard!"
"Yingying knows him too?"
Zheng Fang said, surprised.
Zheng Tuo said, "Exactly, and it seems their relationship is quite good! That security guard being promoted to head of security was Lin Yingying’s suggestion. In my opinion, we should let this matter drop for now. I’m currently working on dealing with them, and once the timing is right, I’ll naturally get him out of the company!"
Zheng Fang took a deep breath and nodded, "Alright, we’ll do it your way then!"
On the other end, Zheng Tuo reminded her, "Sister, you know how naive your niece is, without much of a brain. Don’t take whatever she says today to heart!"
"I know, am I that foolish!"
Zheng Fang said impatiently and hung up the phone immediately.
Zheng Lili, overhearing the conversation, anxiously asked, "Aunt, did my dad agree?"
Zheng Fang sat down and said, "He agreed, but for now, we can’t fire that security guard. When did such a character appear in our company?"
She furrowed her brows and immediately made a call to have one of her own people in the company check on Long Fei’s information.
Over the years, she and her husband had been cultivating their own power to take complete control of the company.
Because she had given birth to a boy for the Lin Family, yet, Elder Master Lin insisted on having a girl run the company.
This fact made Zheng Fang deeply discontent.
If Lin Yingying married someone one day, wouldn’t the Lin’s Group go to someone outside the family?
She and her husband were very reluctant, currently plotting to seize power from Elder Master Lin!
Any personnel posing a threat to them in the company had to be immediately eliminated.
If it weren’t for Zheng Lili’s visit, she wouldn’t have known that someone had infiltrated so deeply.
Both Old Master Zhou and the Lin sisters were all her enemies.
After Zheng Lili waited for her to finish the call, she said resentfully, "Aunt, I just want him fired. They treated me like that today; I must slap that security guard and make him kneel before me."
Zheng Fang looked at her with a smile, "You’re more aggressive than your dad. He’s really becoming more timid with age."
Zheng Lili said excitedly, "You promise?"
Zheng Fang nodded and instructed her, "Just contact your cousin about this; he just came back from America and has been fooling around lately. It’s a good time for him to start dealing with company affairs!"
"Oh my God, when did my cousin come back? How come no one at home knows about it?"
Zheng Lili exclaimed, her heart pounding.
She had had a crush on her cousin for a while. In high school, he was sent to study in America, and she hadn’t seen him in a long time.
Zheng Fang took a sip of tea and eased into a more comfortable position, "He’s only been back for a few days; I didn’t want to draw outside attention, so I didn’t tell everyone. You know, the Lin Family is in a sensitive position right now. Any small thing could lead to criticism!"
Zheng Lili, not understanding these intricacies, hurriedly got his cell phone number and sneaked outside to make the call.
