“What’s going on here? Didn’t I tell you not to handle this matter like this? How am I supposed to explain this to the big boss when you disobey?”
Early in the morning, as soon as Lin Mengting arrived at the office, she was called in by Manager Ding, who had been waiting to ambush her, and received a scolding right away.
This scene was expected. After knowing that Qian Zhiyuan, under the guise of a “hero saving a damsel in distress,” had grown close to the boss’s daughter and used her mind-reading ability to spy on Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan’s intentions, Lin Mengting was mentally prepared.
Therefore, she obediently listened without arguing or defending herself against the enraged Manager Ding.
In the workplace, everyone must remember this rule when your superior is truly picking on you, even trivial matters can be turned into major issues. Any debate or explanation is seen as a challenge to their authority.
However, Lin Mengting’s compliant demeanor did not mean she was conceding. Instead, she planned to use this incident to sever ties with Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan. Moreover, she aimed to dig a deep pit for them as she left Hongxing Company.
…
The half-hour-long reprimand caused Lin Mengting to miss several calls.
It wasn’t until an angry client called Manager Ding that she was finally released.
“Forget it!” Manager Ding waved his hand as if Lin Mengting was an indestructible iron dumpling, leaving him helpless.
“You’ve been with the company long enough to understand the importance of these clients. You should know that ‘the customer is king.’ I don’t want to say more; think about what I’ve said today.”
Sighing deeply, Manager Ding continued, “You used to perform so well. Why have you been making so many mistakes this month? How am I supposed to explain this to the board?”
Despite Manager Ding’s heavy sigh and seemingly heartfelt advice, Lin Mengting simply pressed her lips together without uttering a word or defending herself as he had expected.
“Forget it!” Manager Ding waved again, though dissatisfied with her lack of acknowledgment. He felt much better after venting his frustrations and decided he would regularly call Lin Mengting to his office to relieve his stress from the higher-ups.
“I’m just your supervisor, not your parent. I can’t interfere too much in your personal life. Given your good performance, I’ll give you some advice, but that’s all I can say. Think it over.”
As Lin Mengting turned to leave and was about to disappear from his sight, Manager Ding sighed again, “Young people these days!”
Lin Mengting paused momentarily, a cold sneer flashing in her eyes. Ignoring the pitying looks from her colleagues, she calmly returned to her desk and resumed her work.
Manager Ding’s reprimands didn’t bother her.
Not only had she encountered worse in her past life, but she also understood the methods of Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan.
More importantly, regardless of the circumstances, Manager Ding, as a supervisor, had the right to criticize his subordinates.
Even if it was personal revenge, she couldn’t openly defy him or argue in the office.
Otherwise, even if she was in the right, the higher-ups would see her as a “troublesome” employee.
They would think she couldn’t handle minor grievances, and if she challenged Manager Ding today, would she confront them tomorrow?
She organized her personal files, backed them up, and then decisively deleted them.
Why would she leave her hard-earned information for Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan?
Using techniques she learned in her past life, she thoroughly erased the files, ensuring no expert could recover them. Then, she began drafting her resignation letter.
In a way, Manager Ding and Qian Zhiyuan’s provocations made her decision easier.
After all, Director Wang had taken a big risk hiring her, a technical school graduate, two years ago.
She had repaid this kindness with the significant profits she brought to the company.
Now, it was time to leave.
To prevent others from labeling her ungrateful, she decided to use Manager Ding’s recent behavior as her reason for leaving.
…
During this time, she again heard Qian Zhiyuan’s thoughts.
【Women are thin-skinned. I don’t believe that by constantly demoralizing Lin Mengting, I can’t shatter her confidence!】
【A woman should behave like one! Competing with men and acting like a strong woman, what’s that about? In ancient times, a girl like Lin Mengting would have been expelled from her family!】
Lin Mengting “…”
For someone as stubborn as Qian Zhiyuan, arguing was pointless.
Did he really think that by driving her away, he could rest easy?
Even a fool would know that forcing out a key employee who contributed significantly to the company would bring disastrous consequences for Manager Ding.
Was Manager Ding truly that foolish?
If not for Qian Zhiyuan hinting that he might become the boss’s son-in-law and subtly considering Manager Ding his confidant, would Manager Ding have taken such a risk?
