I Am Born With A Silver Spoon -
Chapter 223 The Boss Who Deserved a Beating
"That's right, Xueqing, tell us quickly! What happened?" someone asked curiously.
Jiang Xueqing nodded her head and told them the story in detail.
Chen Hao finally understood.
It turned out that her superior, who was the deputy manager of one of the departments, had been harassing her quite often ever since she set foot in the company.
He seemed quite modest in the beginning as he only wanted to ask her out for a meal.
After rejecting him several times, Jiang Xueqing felt that it wasn't appropriate to keep rejecting him like that, so she went out with him once.
However, since then, that perverted man's attitude became increasingly worse.
He often called Jiang Xueqing into his office. In the beginning, he would verbally harass her. But now, it had already progressed to sexual harassment.
About two days before the celebration, he called for Jiang Xueqing again. This time around, he touched her thighs straightaway.
Jiang Xueqing panicked and splashed a glass of water at him.
Because of that, he threatened to fire her from the company. She was given a choice to either obey him or leave the company.
Everybody might not know him but according to Jiang Xueqing's description, he had male pattern baldness, and he looked like a wretched person. Later on, Jiang Xueqing told Li Wenyang everything as he was the only one in the entire class who had the capability to deal with this man. "Damn it! It's so infuriating. I really want to give him a good beating! How dare he bully our 'goddess' Xueqing?!" said some of the guys angrily.
"That's right. However, as girls, we really need to know how to protect ourselves. In this society, we tend to become the object of bullying. Back then, when I started working in the hospital, some people did not know my relationship status, and hence they requested some 'things' from me. It was only after they knew my boyfriend's identity that they stopped harassing me," said Li Mingxue.
"What Mingxue said is true. Xueqing, to be honest, Li Shihan and you are the prettiest girls in our class. Just take a look at Shihan now. She had found herself a capable boyfriend, so it's about time that you replace a guy that loves you too. Ahem. There is already a 'ready-made' guy just beside you, so you must cherish him," said Wang Rui.
Jiang Xueqing blushed as she lowered her head.
"Xueqing, don't you worry. I will settle this for you after today's gathering. I don't believe that he has the guts to defy me since he is only a deputy manager," said Li Wenyang domineeringly. "Wenyang, I want you to give them a fright only. Don't do anything else, alright?" said Jiang Xueqing worriedly.
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
"Hahaha! Xueqing, if you want to scare people, let me introduce you to a good candidate-Chen Hao! He is quite close with Liu Li."
Li Chao looked at Chen Hao and smirked at this moment.
Everybody laughed as well.
On the other hand, Chen Hao finally managed to replace a capable and fun person to hang out with, but that person had betrayed him.
Jiang Xueqing gave Chen Hao a glance and turned her head to speak with Li Wenyang.
It was obvious.
Back in high school, Jiang Xueqing and Chen Hao were on good terms with each other. Furthermore, she even got into a heated argument with Li Wenyang because of him. However, it was obvious that her relationship with Li Wenyang was closer now.
That was because Li Wenyang was considered the most successful person amongst them. He had more resources compared to other people. Hence, Chen Hao couldn't even dream of holding a candle to him
Chen Hao understood the situation.
After experiencing what society was like, ordinary people would realize that wealth and resources were way more important than friendships after all.
Even though he felt upset that the girl that he treated as his best friend had a close relationship with his bully, Chen Hao did not utter a single word.
When he saw that everybody was directing the topic of conversation toward him and even started mocking him, Chen Hao excused himself and went to the washroom.
After he was done with his business and was washing his hands, Jiang Xueqing happened to walk out of the girl's toilet.
Obviously she came here shortly after Chen Hao.
When they met each other, both of them looked embarrassed.
"Chen Hao, I haven't had the opportunity to chat with you properly. How are you doing now?"
To hide her embarrassment, she gave him a hearty smile.
After all, she knew that anyone who was in Chen Hao's shoes would feel upset about the fact that she was close to Li Wenyang, especially if you considered her relationship with Chen Hao in the past, as well as the conflict between him and Li Wenyang.
"Alright, I guess," said Chen Hao as he grabbed some tissues and wiped his hands.
"I heard that you haven't found a job yet, so what are your plans for the future?" asked Jiang Xueqing.
"I am thinking of setting up my own business," replied Chen Hao honestly.
Jiang Xueqing furrowed her brows while giving him a casual smile at the same time. Then, she shook her head and said, "Chen Hao, I think you should replace a job, no matter what kind of job it is. You should know better that you are different from other people."
"Or maybe you can try to get into Wenyang's good books. He has his own company now and they happened to be short staffed. If you want to work there, I can ask Wenyang to allow you to work in his company. It will be good since you can get a monthly salary of two thousand," advised Jiang Xueqing.
"Thank you, but I don't want to work under him," said Chen Hao with a smile.
"Sigh. Chen Hao, I know that Wenyang had beaten you up in high school, but that was because he was too impulsive back then, so it's somewhat understandable. Besides, think about it, if you had listened to Wenyang back then and let him copy your homework, I don't think he would have beaten you up, instead he might give you a boost after your graduation," said Jiang Xueqing.
"Don't worry, I've never taken that matter to heart. By the way, don't worry about that issue with the deputy manager of your department. You can either replace your manager straightaway to file a complaint or you can escalate it to the upper management. They will definitely take this issue seriously."
The people from the managerial level up to the upper management level were the original talents of Jin Ling Commercial Group, hence Chen Hao was very well aware of their capabilities and personal traits. They would definitely not let this happen.
Chen Hao thought about it and told this to Jiang Xueqing.
However, Jiang Xueqing looked at Chen Hao and smiled bitterly. "You won't understand the situation at a workplace yet. Sigh! Don't worry about this matter. But thank you, Chen Hao!"
With that, Jiang Xueqing waved her hands at Chen Hao and left.
Jiang Xueqing felt like a stranger to Chen Hao in that instant, just like back then when he met Li Shihan.
Sigh! Chen Hao was greatly disheartened at the moment as he walked out.
However, the moment he stepped out, he saw Jiang Xueqing being blocked by a middle-aged man, and that guy even tried to hold her hands.
"What do you think you are doing, General Manager Zhao?" asked Jiang Xueqing as she tried to dodge him.
"Haha, Qing, I never expected to meet you here while I was having my meal. So, you came here to eat as well. Come along and accompany me for a drink or two. At the same time, I can introduce some of the company's colleagues to you."
General Manager Zhao gave her a perverted look.
"Come on, don't be naughty. I'll get angry if you continue being like this," said General Manager Zhao.
"Let her go!"
At this moment, an angry roar was heard...0000
