Supreme Heir Son-in-law-Chapter 1188 - 1187: Firing Xu Ke

Seeing Xiao Zhen’s tough stance, Secretary Zhou and the Vice President suddenly panicked. The new president has his own ideas, and the company is currently heading in a positive direction. Why is the chairman causing trouble at this time?

"Chairman, perhaps you should reconsider. This matter was indeed instructed by the former chairman."

At this moment, Chang Jingshu also spoke, and the chairman looked at Chang Jingshu, his eyes cold as frost: "As the chairman of Headquarters, don’t I have the right to fire someone? This afternoon, Xu Ke, pack your things and leave."

"Also, I’ve already discussed this with the former chairman, and he agreed. You don’t need to question it further."

Hearing these words from Xiao Zhen, Xu Ke frowned. It was absolutely impossible for him to have consulted the former chairman, and he had only returned to the company a few hours ago.

There couldn’t have been such a big change. Even if he’s not the president of this branch, Xu Ke didn’t think it was a big deal, but he just couldn’t stand Xiao Zhen’s attitude.

At this moment, Hong Xuan walked in, bowed when he saw the chairman: "The chairman is here too, I didn’t mean to overhear just now, but I heard the chairman say something, and indeed, this matter was decided by the former chairman. Moreover, Light and Shadow Company and those three people were also hired by the former chairman."

Seeing Hong Xuan, it was obvious that Xiao Zhen slightly restrained himself, at least he put his crossed legs down and pointed to the seat beside him, seeming to soften his attitude a bit.

"Uncle Hong, why trouble you to make a trip here? I’m so sorry, and this matter itself was a mistake, let’s end it sooner. Right, Uncle, I’m sorry you had to endure this, you should join me back at the company soon."

After hearing Xiao Zhen’s words, Hong Xuan’s expression was indifferent, glancing at the former chairman: "Chairman, I have told you very clearly before, I just want to work at this company, so I definitely won’t go back to Headquarters."

"And I hope that when the chairman does these things, he asks the former chairman first. Otherwise, when the former chairman really gets angry, I’m afraid you, chairman, won’t be able to handle it."

Hearing Hong Xuan’s obviously threatening words, Xiao Zhen became even angrier. These people all seemed to want to pick on him. Right now, he is the president of Xiao Group, but none of these people have any awareness of that.

"Uncle Hong, are you threatening me?"

Looking at Hong Xuan, Xiao Zhen showed no sign of backing down, while Hong Xuan sighed, the chairman had been too concerned about his own status over the years, paying no mind to anything else.

"Chairman, I never meant to threaten you. I’m merely hoping that you can consider the company’s interests and not act so recklessly. This branch has developed to this point with much difficulty, and it’s about to start profiting. If everything stops now..."

Before Hong Xuan could finish, Xiao Zhen interrupted him, setting the coffee cup on the table with a slam, causing the coffee to spill over.

Secretary Zhou quickly handed over a napkin, but Xiao Zhen, in a rage, shouted at Secretary Zhou: "Don’t you know I don’t drink coffee this hot?"

Secretary Zhou was extremely embarrassed at this moment, while Xu Ke was particularly angry. It was enough for the chairman to come to their company, but now he’s finding faults everywhere, behaving no differently from a shrew on the street.

"If the chairman doesn’t want to drink it, then don’t. And this is my secretary, who doesn’t know what you want to drink. If you’re so particular, I suggest next time you go out, bring your own assistant and secretary, and don’t come here to vent."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhen immediately stood up, staring at Xu Ke as if he was about to devour him.

At this moment, Hong Xuan didn’t expect that because of one Secretary Zhou, Xu Ke would directly confront the chairman. Xu Ke was indeed bold.

And Secretary Zhou felt particularly guilty at this moment, not expecting that because of himself, the president and the chairman got into an argument.

"President, I’m fine, please don’t be angry. This is not the time to be angry, please calm down."

Upon hearing Secretary Zhou saying this, Xu Ke looked at him, and Secretary Zhou sighed. Although he was just a secretary, he did many things. It’s not necessary to serve tea and pour water, but even when doing so, not receiving gratitude and being scolded is too much.

"Don’t involve me in this matter either."

After Xu Ke finished saying this, he coldly looked at Xiao Zhen, removing his ID badge from his suit pocket and throwing it on the table: "Since you want to fire me, then be prepared to bear all the consequences. You don’t care, and neither do I."

After Xu Ke finished speaking, he ignored Hong Xuan’s pull: "Minister Hong, I know everything you do is for my good, but I just can’t swallow this anger."

"Even a clay figurine knows to have some backbone. As a person, if I don’t have any backbone and he keeps talking to me like this, how am I different from the employees of the company? How can I manage the branch in the future? I might as well leave."

Hearing Xu Ke’s words, Hong Xuan sighed. What on earth is the chairman trying to do today? Does he want to tear the company apart to be satisfied?

At this time, Xiao Zhen indeed felt satisfied because the person he disliked left.

"Since you said you’re leaving today, I absolutely won’t stop you, but none of this is my fault. You chose to leave."

Upon hearing Xiao Zhen’s words, Xu Ke turned his head, coldly looking at Xiao Zhen: "A real man should have the ability to take responsibility. Why can’t you own up to your words, sitting in the position of chairman but acting like a coward?"

After Xu Ke finished, the vice president Chang Jingshu, who had been silent, also removed her ID badge and quietly placed it on the table.

"Since the chairman is not optimistic about the development of our branch, I suppose there’s no need for me to stay here. The chairman should find someone more capable."

After Liu Yifei finished speaking, she looked at Xu Ke. Her eyes showed gratitude, seeing Xu Ke, actually made Chang Jingshu see hope, but she didn’t expect this hope to be so slim.

Seeing Chang Jingshu’s actions, Xiao Zhen was particularly puzzled. Liu Yifei was indeed a man, and when the Headquarters called her, she wouldn’t go. But now, because of Xu Ke, she’s making a fuss about leaving. Are both of them trying to threaten him?

"I only fired one branch president, do you think you’re threatening me? Do you really believe Headquarters can’t spare anyone to manage the branch?"

"I want to see how many more of you will leave the branch today?"
