Li Daming was instantly rendered speechless and wished to plead for leniency, but upon encountering Jiang Chen's indifferent gaze, he suddenly understood that there really was no chance left for him.

"They're right, they're the boss; if they want to fire you, it's just a matter of a few words!"

Involuntarily, he began to feel a surge of hate within!

He didn't hate Jiang Chen, he didn't hate himself, but Li Furong. If it wasn't for Li Furong insisting on working at Sky Venerate City, he wouldn't have gone to pick her up. Without picking her up, he wouldn't have encountered the boss, and then the incident at the elevator wouldn't have happened!

Jiang Chen scanned the people in the meeting room and his gaze settled on the third man to his left, "This gentleman must be Hu Yuejun, the HR Director, right?"

"Yes, yes!" Hu Yuejun nodded repeatedly, his heart lifting.

What's this situation? I just got rid of Li Daming, and now is he coming for me?

"HR Director Hu, I have a friend waiting in the adjacent internal reception room. Could you please find someone to take her to the HR department to handle her employment?" Jiang Chen casually said with a slight smile, "Oh, and her name is Su Qingqing."

"Sure, sure, I'll go right now!" Hu Yuejun let out a sigh of relief and hurriedly agreed.

Jiang Chen didn't specify what position to arrange for Su Qingqing, nor did he know what position would suit her, but since he had personally made the request, he believed that Hu Yuejun would make suitable arrangements!

...

Inside the internal reception room of Sky Venerate City.

Su Qingqing was sitting on the sofa, quietly waiting.

At this moment, the door to the reception room opened, and Su Qingqing turned her head to look, a flicker of surprise crossing her face.

The person entering from the door was actually Li Furong.

"Su Qingqing?! What are you doing here?" Li Furong was surprised to see Su Qingqing as well, then her face turned into a sneer, "It seems your security guard boyfriend really has some skills, being able to get you into the company."

"Li Furong, you are wrong, he's not a security guard," Su Qingqing said indifferently. There was no need to keep hiding the truth here, and moreover, Li Furong's disdain for Jiang Chen made her feel quite annoyed.

"Not a security guard? Could it be a cleaner then?! Haha..." Li Furong burst out laughing.

Su Qingqing frowned slightly and was just about to speak when Li Furong's voice rose again; "Su Qingqing, don't think that just making it here is enough, the assessments at Sky Venerate City aren't that simple. I don't need to worry, I can be admitted directly, but you, I'm afraid you'll still need to go through various interviews. At most, you might just have an opportunity for an early interview, unlike me, who will be taking up a position right away!"

"Heh," Su Qingqing couldn't help but laugh and shook her head, then turned away, no longer wishing to deal with this self-righteous person.

Not much later, the door to the reception room was opened again, and Li Daming walked in with a cardboard box, his face dark and gloomy.

"Darling, you're here? Which department am I going to?" Li Furong's eyes lit up, she glanced at Su Qingqing boastfully, and stepped towards Li Daming.

Li Daming sneered coldly, "Which department? Where do you want to go?"

"I... Darling, what's wrong with you?" Li Furong was taken aback, approached Li Daming, and was just about to clasp his arm when she suddenly noticed that the box he was holding contained his personal belongings. Confused, she asked, "Darling, what is this... have you been transferred?"

Bang!

"Slap—" Li Daming's eyes filled with resentment as he threw the box down and slapped Li Furong across the face, his expression ferocious as he bellowed, "Damn it! You wretched woman!"

"Ah!"

Li Furong screamed in horror and anger, looking at Li Daming with astonishment, "Li Daming, you dare to hit me? Have you lost your mind?"

"Crazy? I am crazy! It's all because of you, this cheap woman, and the trouble you've caused! If it weren't for your insistence on coming to Sky Venerate City, would I have offended my boss? If I hadn't offended my boss, would I have been fired? You still have the face to say I'm crazy? I'll beat you to death!" Li Daming roared, grabbing Li Furong's hair and hitting her furiously.

Slap!

"It's all your fault!"

Slap!

"Cheap woman!"

Slap!

Su Qingqing was stunned for a moment, looking at Li Furong's pitiful state, a touch of pity appeared in her eyes. Just as she was about to speak up and intercede, a loud shout suddenly came from the doorway: "Stop!"

Turning their heads, the three of them saw a middle-aged man walk in from the doorway.

Hu Yuejun looked at Li Daming with an icy expression and demanded, "Li Daming, what do you think this place is?"

"Hu, Director Hu!" Li Daming's face turned pale with fear. In his anger just now, he had neglected his surroundings, only now remembering that this was Sky Venerate City, where the boss was someone who dared to defy the Four Great Aristocratic Families. By making a scene here, he must have lost his mind.

"Director Hu, I was wrong, I'll leave at once, I'll leave right now!" Li Daming hastily apologized, gathered his things in a hurry, and bolted from the reception room without so much as a glance at Li Furong.

Hu Yuejun glanced at Li Furong, his eyebrows knitting slightly. He had seen Li Furong before—when Li Daming went to the HR department to pull strings, he happened to be there and had seen Li Furong's file. Therefore, he would not mistake Li Furong for Su Qingqing.

During the meeting, he had realized that Li Daming must have offended Jiang Chen. So, even though Li Furong looked disheveled and her cheeks were swollen like steamed buns, evoking pity, Hu Yuejun felt no sympathy for her, not even uttering a word of concern, and walked directly toward Su Qingqing.

"Hello, I am the HR Director, Hu Yuejun. May I ask if you are Miss Su Qingqing?" Hu Yuejun said with a smile, a stark contrast to his previous stern demeanor when he reprimanded Li Daming.

Su Qingqing glanced at Li Furong and nodded lightly.

"Miss Su, the boss has arranged for your onboarding. I will take you to complete the new hire paperwork!" Hu Yuejun spoke again, this time with a respectful tone.

"Thank you for the trouble, Director Hu!" Su Qingqing said with a smile.

"No, no, no!" Hu Yuejun quickly waved his hand: "Not at all! Please follow me, Miss Su!"

Following Hu Yuejun, Su Qingqing left the reception room, leaving only Li Furong in the room, her face filled with shock!

The boss?!

That guard... no, Su Qingqing's boyfriend is the boss of Sky Venerate City?

The boss of Yichen Company, the one who stands up to the Four Great Aristocratic Families?

Only at this moment did Li Furong finally understand what had happened. She understood why her boyfriend was fired, why she was beaten!

An incredulous look appeared in the eyes of Li Furong, which soon turned into a face filled with dejection and regret!

Compared to them, what was her own boyfriend? Nothing but trash!

It was laughable that she had just mocked Su Qingqing and Jiang Chen.

She could die of shame!
