1087: Chapter 1088: Does Everything from the Duanmu Family Smell Good?
“Kid, you’re just a little security guard, making quite a fuss almost trapping me in your mess.
Stop your nonsense and kneel down to apologize to me right now, or else you’ll regret it.”
Zhang Jun yelled at Xiao Chen.
“Haha, I really want to see how you’re going to make me suffer.”
Xiao Chen laughed, “Zhang Jun, oh Zhang Jun, I’m truly worried about your intelligence.
It has been so long, and you still haven’t realized who I am?”
“Who are you really?”
Zhang Jun asked instinctively.
It wasn’t that he didn’t recognize Xiao Chen, but he was inquiring about Xiao Chen’s role within the Xiao Corporation.
“For that, you’ll have to ask Andi.”
Xiao Chen replied.
“Shut up, the name of President Andi is not something you’re worthy of mentioning,” Zhang Jun said coldly.
“Haha, not only do I call her by her name, but I’ve also called her ‘Andi baby.’ What about it?”
Xiao Chen sneered.
Zhang Jun started to feel that something was off.
Was Xiao Chen really just tough, or could it be that being a security manager was just a cover?
Did this guy have another identity?
Huo Nantian sensed that the atmosphere was amiss and absolutely added fuel to the fire.
“President Zhang, I see that you’re having a tough time.
Let’s leave it at that, we won’t shoot this documentary anymore.
Find someone else who’s capable.
After all, I can see that your position at Xiao Corporation isn’t significant.
So much for being an elder, even a minor security manager doesn’t fear you,” Huo Nantian, who indeed had a knack for inciting trouble, said.
What Zhang Jun disliked the most was others saying he was incompetent.
His efficiency had been declining over the years, though his salary was still high, he knew it was out of the Xiao Corporation’s sympathy.
After all, he had made contributions before.
He really wasn’t a match for those younger than him.
The more you can’t do something, the less you like others mentioning it.
The moment they do, you explode.
Huo Nantian pinpointed this, intentionally saying these words to intensify the conflict and leave no time for Zhang Jun to think.
Sure enough, Zhang Jun exploded as soon as he heard this.
“Stop right there, with me here, I want to see who dares obstruct you guys.”
Zhang Jun’s voice boomed.
Huo Nantian sighed and said, “Let’s not make it tough, look at the atmosphere, it doesn’t seem like you can make him bow, right?”
“Hmph!”
Zhang Jun snorted coldly and yelled at the security guards, “You don’t know me, so let me introduce myself, I’m a senior manager at Xiao Corporation.
This time in the Longcheng Preparatory Committee, I’m serving as the Vice President, but in reality, I’m the one controlling everything.
Are you saying that my words don’t count anymore?”
The security guards weren’t aware of the relationship between Tianxing Company and Xiao Corporation, nor did they know that Xiao Chen was the boss of the Xiao Corporation.
So they started to worry.
If something went wrong with Tianxing Company this time, they would face serious consequences.
They all looked towards Xiao Chen, to see how he would respond.
To their surprise, Xiao Chen just laughed: “If I give you face, your words matter, if I don’t, your words are like farts.”
Hearing this, Zhang Jun became even angrier, boiling like a kettle about to explode.
“Xiao Chen, even if President Bai protects you today, I won’t let you off.”
Zhang Jun shouted at the top of his voice, “Somebody, kick this guy out, from today on, he’s no longer the manager of the Preparatory Committee.”
The few people who came with him were about to take action.
But at this moment, another car arrived.
The person who got out of the car was Bai Xue along with the personal bodyguard provided by Xiao Corporation.
“President Zhang, why are you so angry?
No matter what, Xiao Chen is the security manager I chose.
Without my consent, I’d like to see who dares to make him leave.”
Bai Xue now showed a bit more dominance.
After all, the boss was right beside her, naturally, she could stand up straight.
“President Bai!”
Zhang Jun frowned and said, “Why are you here?
I was merely disciplining a lowly security manager.
Are you planning to go against me?”
“Don’t say he’s just a security manager—even if he was just a simple security guard, you have no right to discipline him because he’s my man.
What are all these people doing here?
This is a construction site, not a place for internet celebrities to livestream.”
Bai Xue’s expression was extremely cold.
Zhang Jun was stunned—usually, Bai Xue would show him some respect and definitely wouldn’t dare speak to him like this in front of others.
But today was strange—Bai Xue was not giving him any face at all.
This was clearly a public slap in the face.
“These people are from Chaoyang Film, here to shoot a documentary for us.
This is the boss’s wish.
Would you like to go against that?”
Zhang Jun ground his teeth and said.
“Hehe, did the boss tell you that he’s chosen the more promising and higher-quality Xinmeng Entertainment for this job?”
Bai Xue sneered.
“That’s not appropriate is it?
I have already signed a contract with Chaoyang Film.
We can’t break the contract, can we?”
Zhang Jun frowned and said.
“Break the contract?
That was merely your personal signature.
You don’t represent Xiao Corporation, let alone Longcheng Preparatory Committee.
A “contract” without an official seal?
You dare say that’s a contract?”
Bai Xue said with disdain.
“President Bai, perhaps you don’t know, this is a company controlled by the Duanmu Family.
Behind Duanmu Family is War God.
Offending Duanmu Family has serious consequences—I hope you understand them well.
Xiao Corporation is very powerful, but offending War God will have bad outcomes.”
Zhang Jun shouted.
Zhang Jun was thrice sure about this: Zhou Yinque, daughter of the Duanmu Family, is indeed War God’s sister.
Just a few days ago, he had met Head Chen at the provincial government’s residence and later met War God.
There was no way he could be wrong.
This was why he dared to take money for this matter.
He wanted to act first and report later.
Surely Xiao Corporation wouldn’t offend War God over a matter with Xinmeng Entertainment.
But he was wrong.
Bai Xue laughed lightly, “So Duanmu Family’s farts smell sweet, huh?
What do they count for, to have any relation with War God?
Let me tell you, Zhang Jun, your days in Xiao Corporation are over.
Do you even know who you have offended?
Do you know who is standing here?”
“Ha, I don’t care who he is.
At most he’s your little lover.
He’s no important figure.
Bai Xue, if you don’t step aside today, I’ll take you down too.
I just can’t believe the boss would kick me out over such a small matter.”
Zhang Jun was determined.
He recognized no one.
“Zhang Jun, you’ve really disappointed me.”
Xiao Chen sighed and said, “I thought, after you left the company, at the very least, the company would take care of you for the rest of your life.
But not only did you betray the company and let the wolf into the house, you’re also being utterly obstinate.
You don’t know my identity, so it’s excusable.
But you knew Bai Xue is the president of Longcheng Preparatory Committee, and yet you still attacked him.
I think you’ve really become too befuddled and are beyond saving.”
“Xiao Chen, shut up, what business is it of yours here, a security manager, can you protect him?
Come on, get him.”
Zhang Jun shouted.
He had dozens of capable men behind him.
They all charged towards Bai Xue and Xiao Chen.
But just at that moment, a truck suddenly stopped at the side of the road.
