I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Does it still hurt?"

In a reception room, Qin Ge used his spiritual energy to gently massage Chen Xiaoxiao's cheeks, and the redness and swelling had subsided considerably.

"Oh, I'm fine." Chen Xiaoxiao was still thinking about what had just happened and was very worried. "Qin Ge, didn't you hit him a little too hard?"

"Is this really okay?"

"No matter how despicable Pan Cheng and his gang are, they're still employees of Qingcheng Beauty. This is a huge problem!"

"Even if they were ordinary people, you beat them up like that, and so many people saw it. You can't escape responsibility!"

"Wait a minute!" She hadn't heard Fang Jing's last words, and belatedly realized, "The person who came with you just now seems to be Secretary Fang, who works for President Gu!"

"I saw her twice while waiting for the elevator, and each time she was following behind Mr. Gu. How did you end up with her?"

"Did you hear Secretary Fang say something about 'boss' when she left?"

"I've gone easy on them by not killing them!" Qin Ge smiled gently. "The person Fang Jing was talking about is me. I'm the owner of Qingcheng Beauty."

"I told you this yesterday at the bar entrance, but you didn't believe me."

......

"Gu Caiwei! What right do you have to fire me?!"

"Over the years, you've led the marketing department to expand the market and made outstanding contributions to Qingcheng Beauty. You think you can just fire me like that?"

"I admit I bear responsibility for mismanagement that caused this incident, but does it warrant firing me?"

After learning about what had happened in the marketing team, Li Jianghe, the marketing manager, rushed over, only to be told by Gu Caiwei in one sentence that he had been fired.

Li Jianghe immediately lost his temper and, disregarding everything else, questioned Gu Caiwei on the spot.

"A great contribution?" Gu Caiwei scoffed. "I don't deny the marketing department's contribution, but it was the result of the hard work of everyone in the marketing department. Now it's all yours alone?"

"Tell me, what significant positive impacts have you had on the marketing department?"

"To put it bluntly, even if you had a dog in your position, the marketing department would be doing better than it is now!"

"Everyone works so hard, and not only have you failed to set a good example, but you also frequently make some fancy but wrong decisions that drag everyone down. Do you really think I don't know anything?"

Her words immediately resonated with everyone in the marketing department; they truly touched their hearts!

"Stop with the nonsense!" Li Jianghe's face was grim and ashen. "No matter what, if you want to fire me, you need to give me a convincing explanation!"

"A statement that will convince everyone!"

"Are you sure?" Gu Caiwei knew everything about Li Jianghe's situation, but because of the purchasing manager Su Wenbin and the many other things involved, she hadn't been able to make up her mind to deal with it.

Now that the boss has made his stance clear, she has decided to uproot these parasites completely, leaving none behind!

"Fine! I was going to leave you a way out, but you're courting death, so don't blame me!"

"Fang Jing! Release all that information, inform the entire company!"

Now that they know the situation, they naturally have evidence in their hands.

When Li Jianghe represented Qingcheng Beauty in negotiating collaborations with other companies, she kept detailed records of every single instance, from how he took kickbacks to how he lured female employees to offer themselves to him!

Gu Caiwei didn't take action against Li Jianghe before, not because she was unaware of it, but simply because she hadn't waited for the right opportunity to resolve the issue.

"Okay!" Fang Jing replied, and immediately started operating the tablet she was carrying, her hands trembling slightly with excitement.

A few minutes later, everyone's phones started vibrating.

When I clicked on it, everyone was speechless with astonishment.

They had heard about what Li Jianghe had done, so they were used to it.

Moreover, Li Jianghe is not an isolated case; people in Li Jianghe's position are often found in similar situations in other companies as well.

They were mentally prepared, but not for this much.

What Li Jianghe has done is beyond their imagination; what they have heard is just the tip of the iceberg!

Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Li Jianghe quickly took out his phone to check. When he saw the list of his "crimes" in the announcement, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Ruined.

Gu Caiwei wasn't just saying it casually; she really left him a way out, but unfortunately, he blocked that way out himself.

Being fired is definitely not a good thing for him, but if it's just being fired, the problem isn't that big of a deal.

At least he can find another job.

But now that these things have been made public, he will soon be infamous throughout the industry, and who would dare to hire him?

Only then did he realize that Gu Caiwei had been watching him all along!

Why hasn't she taken any action?

His mind raced faster and faster. Yes, it was because of Manager Su. Gu Caiwei must have a close relationship with Su Wenbin, which is why she had been turning a blind eye all along!

"President Gu," Li Jianghe forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, "there must be some misunderstanding here!"

"Please have Secretary Fang withdraw the notice first. I'll call Manager Su, and we can sit down and talk things through calmly. The misunderstanding can definitely be cleared up!"

"Trying to use Su Wenbin to intimidate me?" Gu Caiwei saw through Li Jianghe's little scheme at a glance, her face full of mockery. "He can't protect you!"

"Su Wenbin has also been fired!"

"Fang Jing, send out all the other people's information as well!"

Her gaze swept over the crowd, her expression authoritative without her being angry. "Ladies and gentlemen," she said, "there are quite a few incompetent officials within Qingcheng Beauty, or corrupt individuals who abuse their positions for personal gain!"

"I've made up my mind to eliminate all these parasites, and all employees involved will be dismissed!"

"Furthermore, those who remain will receive a salary adjustment; rest assured, it will only increase, not decrease!"

"Preliminary estimates suggest the increase will be between 50% and 100%!"

"Everyone who works hard will be rewarded accordingly, and those with outstanding abilities will be promoted. We only consider character and ability, not seniority or connections!"

"For those who lack the necessary skills and have been with the company for less than a year, the company will provide a grace period and arrange training. Whether you can seize the opportunity is up to you."

"Character comes first, ability second, relationships are worthless!"

"This is the boss's decision, and it's also my resolve!"

Gu Caiwei's words were powerful and resounding, silencing the entire audience, followed by cheers that nearly lifted the ceiling.

The crowd shouted "Long live the boss!" and "Long live General Manager Gu!" They were filled with enthusiasm and high spirits.

Almost everyone who works wants a chance to get ahead, but if someone like Li Jianghe is above you and you don't have any special relationship with him, there's no hope at all.

For example, Pan Cheng, the supervisor, is only so-so in ability, but he got promoted because of his relationship with Li Jianghe.

Many people disagreed with him, but they could only keep it to themselves.

You can only adapt to and get used to things you can't change, but that makes you lose motivation at work. Anyway, the salary is only so much, and no matter how hard you work, it won't necessarily increase.

Things are different now. As Gu Caiwei just said, everyone has hope!
