Chapter 111 - 111: Quickly Defended
If it was anywhere else, everyone would have sided with him and bully Pei Xin instead. They might even help spread the fire elsewhere to tarnish her name.
However, the employees of this company were all on Pei Xin’s side.
“Since you know my identity, aren’t you afraid of offending the Lu Corporation?” Lu Li threatened.
The employees laughed even harder. “Who do you think you are? We have a partnership with the Lu Corporation, you’re not even in charge of that. If you’re that capable, why don’t you replace CEO Lu and make us work for you instead?”
After being provoked by these female employees, Lu Li’s face turned red. In a huff, he turned around and left.
“Thank you,” Pei Xin said gratefully to the female employees.
The female employees laughed heartily. “There’s no big deal. Our company is united. If he bullies you again in the future, just give us a call. What’s your number? 1’11 add you to the company’s group chat.”
As she spoke, someone added Pei Xin to the company’s group chat.
Thanks to Lu Li, Pei Xin made many friends today.
Lu Li didn’t get to ruin Pei Xin and returned to the Lu Corporation in a sorry state.
His team leader was waiting for him at his desk.
Once Lu Li arrived, the team leader pointed at his watch and scolded him, “Look at the time. You are half an hour late. CEO Lu is already here. You’re the last intern to arrive. Do you think you are better than the CEO?”
Lu Li had already been humiliated enough. Now that the small team leader had the right to scold him, he was even angrier.
He decided to stop pretending and reprimanded the team leader instead. “Who do you think you are? You’re just working for my family. I’m just working under you for the time being to familiarize myself with the work process. Do you really think you sh*t on me for the rest of your life?”
The team leader wasn’t affected by Lu Li’s attitude at all. He continued to insist, “Of course I know who you are. Your reputation has spread throughout the company. Everyone knows about you and your mother. In the Lu Corporation, we only acknowledge CEO Lu as the leader. The day you become the CEO is the day I resign.”
When the team leader said this, he didn’t hide his admiration for Lu Huai and his contempt for Lu Li.
Lu Li’s pride was crushed into bits.
Why did Lu Huai have such high prestige in the company while was just the second generation of the company’s employees?
He had been working very hard and got into a good university. He was only a little worse than Lu Huai, so why couldn’t anyone see his hard work?
In his anger, Lu Li turned around and left. “I’m not attending this sh*t anymore.”
After he left, Lu Huai appeared beside the team leader.
The team leader was very respectful when he faced Lu Huai. He took the initiative to say, “CEO Lu, Mr. Lu Li left on his own accord. I didn’t say much. I just told him not to be late.”
Lu Huai nodded. “I know it’s not your fault. You can continue with your work. It must be tough having him on your team.”
Lu Li returned home angrily.
Lu Yu and Zhou Jing were both at home. They were drinking tea and reading the newspaper.
Seeing Lu Li return, Zhou Jing asked with concern, “Why are you back so soon? Shouldn’t you be at work today?”
Lu Yu also frowned. “I arranged for you to join the company so that you can gain a foothold. You can’t just come home anytime you want to. Wouldn’t they think that you’re looking down on the company’s employees?”
Lu Li felt wronged and said, “Dad, Mom, everyone in the company is under Lu Huai’s control. None of them are willing to accept me. Moreover, Lu Huai placed me to be an intern in the company. Why should he be the CEO and I only deserve to be an intern? Even a team leader dared to scold me. He even threatened me, saying that he only respects Lu Huai. He said that if I became the CEO, he would immediately resign. Although I went to the company to familiarize myself with the business, I will never be as good as Lu Huai. Lu Huai must have instigated it. He’s deliberately targeting me so that I leave the company..”
