The Beautiful County Magistrate
Chapter 399: Do Everything According to Mr. Xu’s Wishes!

Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Do Everything According to Mr. Xu’s Wishes!

The scene before everyone’s eyes almost left them all stunned.

My god, the company’s top secretary, who, besides Fan Rongze, never bowed to anyone else in the company, was actually bowing to Xu Qianli, and it was a ninety-degree bow!

What was she saying, calling Xu Qianli "Mr. Xu" and even offering to provide him help, telling him to give commands for anything he needed.

What the hell is going on here?

Fu Guotai didn’t say that Xu Qianli was just a grassroots official from a small place, a mere town secretary, with no background to speak of, and in a place like Beijing, he was nothing at all.

Why was Secretary Qin showing him so much respect?

While everyone else was shocked, Zhou Xianrong became anxious and said in a rush, "Secretary Qin, this is the kid who came to our company to cause trouble, and now you’re even helping him. What’s this all about?"

Qin Wen’s eyes emitted a cold light as she swept them over Zhou Xianrong.

"What, do I need you to teach me what to do?"

"Vice President Zhou, don’t think too highly of yourself; you better just take care of your own mess!"

Seeing Qin Wen publicly reprimand Zhou Xianrong left people even more puzzled.

Although she was usually assertive, there was never talk of her actively offending anyone, so why was she, today, acting like she was on the warpath, publicly embarrassing Zhou Xianrong?

Could it be that she and Xu Qianli were old acquaintances?

Turning her head, Qin Wen directed her gaze toward a group of police officers.

"I’m truly sorry for disturbing your work."

"This matter is an internal affair of Longxin Group, and we will handle it ourselves, so don’t trouble yourselves."

The policewoman nodded upon hearing this and said, "If you want to handle it yourselves, that’s fine, but I’d like to see just how you’re going to handle it."

Qin Wen said, "It’s simple: everything will be done according to Mr. Xu’s wishes, however he wants it."

Hearing these words, the scene was once again filled with an uproar.

It was already shocking enough that Qin Wen was showing so much respect to Xu Qianli.

But now, to say that the matter would be handled his way, however he wanted, was just too blunt and straightforward.

Zhou Xianrong felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Damn it, if Xu Qianli really got to decide how to handle this, wouldn’t he have to slap himself?

Fu Guotai said in a hurry, "Secretary Qin, this method seems a bit overly biased towards an outsider. Xu Qianli is nothing but someone with no background, how can you favor him like this, who does he think he is?"

"Now I have to ask you, who do you think you are?"

Qin Wen stared coldly at Fu Guotai and with a fierce wave of her hand said,

"I recognize you, and you are not from our Longxin Group."

"An outsider, coming to our company and dictating, questioning our company’s handling of this matter, what right do you have to question?"

"Someone escort him out, and don’t let him into Longxin Group ever again!"

At Qin Wen’s command, the security rushed forward to throw out Fu Guotai.

Fu Guotai’s face was indescribably ugly. He, the prominent young master of the Fu family, the youngest County Party Secretary in Wangbei Province, was being thrown out the door. It would be a disgrace to speak of it.

But this was Longxin Group, and Qin Wen’s background and power were extremely frightening; he had no choice but to be humiliatingly ejected.

Having gotten rid of the bystanders, Qin Wen asked, "Does anyone else question the company’s decision on how to handle this matter?"

Now, who else would dare to raise an objection? What’s more astonishing was that Qin Wen referred to it as a company decision and not her personal opinion.

Could it be that this was a decision made by the chairman?

Could this kid Xu Qianli have some relationship with the Chairman?

Impossible, right? How could a minor official from the lower ranks possibly have any relation to the Chairman of Longxin Group, which has a market value of at least five trillion and holds significant weight in the country? Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Probably, the Chairman had long been dissatisfied with Vice President Zhou and wanted to use this incident to give him a serious beating.

This explanation seems more reasonable and makes more sense.

Xu Qianli looked at Zhou Xianrong with a smirk that wasn’t quite a smile.

"Since your company has come to a decision, then do as I have said."

"You old fool, as I said earlier, you raised her but didn’t teach her. You raised a bitch like Zhou Man Na, who, as a close friend and best friend, actually stole Sister Mengni’s husband. You must take responsibility—start slapping yourself now!"

"Twenty slaps, not one less!"

Zhou Xianrong quickly responded, "What twenty? Didn’t you just say ten?"

"Now it’s thirty!" Xu Qianli said.

"You!"

Zhou Xianrong was grinding his teeth with hatred; this was too much to bear.

His gaze turned to Qin Wen, only to see murderous intent filling her eyes, as if she would harshly deal with him if he didn’t agree.

He just couldn’t understand, how did it come to this result?

Could it really come to him slapping himself?

No, he was Zhou Xianrong, the company’s Vice President. If he really did slap himself, how could he stand in the company afterward?

No, no matter what, absolutely not!

Zhou Xianrong hurriedly took out his phone, ran to a less crowded area, and hurriedly made a call.

Soon, Zhou Xianrong came back with an iron blue face, and in front of everyone, he slapped himself one after another across the face.

Thirty unadulterated slaps, Zhou Xianrong’s face swelled up like a pig’s head, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

Afterward, he turned to Xu Qianli with a smiling face.

"Mr. Xu, you’re right, it’s all my fault. I raised her but didn’t teach her, raising such an immoral daughter. I deserve to be hit."

"The thirty slaps are done, are you no longer angry? If you’re not, I’ll continue to hit myself until you’re satisfied."

Having made the call, Zhou Xianrong’s demeanor towards Xu Qianli underwent a drastic 180-degree change, displaying extreme respect and politeness.

This spectacle left everyone present full of question marks. Wasn’t he extremely indignant at Xu Qianli, wishing he could kill Xu Qianli? How come now he’s like a completely different person, so respectful to Xu Qianli?

Zhou Man Na was even more confused. She hurried to his side, "Dad, have you gone mad? Why are you being so polite to him?"

Slap...

A slap rang out, as Zhou Xianrong fiercely slapped Zhou Man Na across the face.

"You wretch, I always taught you to be honest and not to do immoral things."

"But you, you have ignored my words and actually went and stole your own best friend’s husband, completely disgracing me and our Zhou Family."

"You better not say or ask anything else, if you don’t want to be expelled from the family, get on your knees immediately and kowtow to Lan Mengni, apologize, and seek her forgiveness, or I’ll kick you out of the family right away!"

Zhou Xianrong was ferocious, seriously enraged.

Zhou Man Na covered her face in a daze, staring incredulously at her father.

He had always doted on her the most, not to mention hitting her; whenever she caused big trouble in the past, he would always cover for her. How come today he sided with someone else?

There was definitely a problem, something was surely off with that phone call he made just now—whom had he called, after all?
