Chapter 196: Sharp-Tongued Xiao Jing

Translator: Henyee  Editor: Henyee

Sure enough, President Xiao wouldn’t invite the secretaries to his office for coffee without a reason! Even if he wanted to buy them coffee, he could have had the coffee sent to the secretariat. This was just like the ‘Hong Gate Feast’! He must be planning something of a dark manner!

Tut tut, only these people who hadn’t seen President Xiao’s true face were fooled by his kindly appearance. They were definitely doomed…

The first idea that came to Yueyue’s mind was to run away, but before she made it to the door, Xiao Jing had called out her name. Yueyue carefully looked back at Xiao Jing and lit a candle for herself in her heart. She knew that she had been working very hard these days and hadn’t slacked off at all. Not once did she gossip with others and she was really dedicated. There was no other secretary that was more dedicated to work than she was, okay?!

She looked at Xiao Jing timidly. “President Xiao, what else can I do for you?”

Xiao Jing turned back and pointed to some documents on his desk, with a deadpan expression on his face he said, “Those are the documents I’ve reviewed. Take them to the managers of the related departments.”

Yueyue rushed over to take the documents, and the other secretaries stood up to leave, wanting to take advantage of Yueyue’s exit. “President Xiao, we have to go.”

“Did I let you go?” Xiao Jing turned around and his eyes sparkled with a cold gleam. Merry frowned, stood up and asked, “President Xiao, is there anything else that we can do for you?”

“Anything?” Xiao Jing snorted and said coldly, “Of course there is, and a lot for that matter!”

He got up and walked to his desk. He looked at a pile of documents next to his desk chair and pointed to Linda. “You, come here and carry these documents over.”

A surprised gleam flickered in Linda’s eyes. She stood there dumbstruck, not knowing what to do. Xiao Jing raised his eyebrows and asked, “You brought me these documents, right? What’s wrong? You can’t carry it now?”

Linda hurriedly put down her coffee and went over to pick up the large pile of documents. Xiao Jing said, “Just put them on the floor beside the sofa.”

Merry looked at Xiao Jing and asked with a frown, “President Xiao, what’s wrong? Is there anything that’s not right with these documents?”

“They’re just garbage. Why can’t they be put on the ground? Merry, can you tell me where to put garbage?” Xiao Jing walked over with one hand in his trouser’s pocket, glanced at the folders on the ground, and once again sat down on the sofa.

Merry’s heart suddenly sank. Before she said anything, Xiao Jing sneered. “Garbage should be thrown into the trash can and sent to the trash yard for incineration! Do you think my office is a trash yard? How could you stuff these piles of junk into my office? Do you really think I’m too blind to see anything wrong with these documents?”

With that, he picked up two documents and threw them down in front of Selina. “Selina, how much did the head of engineering department give you? Or is it that you two are husband and wife?” He asked with a biting chill in his voice. “How can you submit to me this kind of proposal? Do you think I’m blind? Or are you too blind to see the problems in it?”

Selina turned pale, lowered her head timidly and dared not speak a single word. Xiao Jing looked at Selina and sneered, “And these ones, did the financial department buy you some candy so that you could turn a blind eye to the problems in them? Can’t you see such a big financial hole? Or did you just bring me this report to insult me? And you still have the time to drink coffee and gossip? Have you finished your work yet? If you can’t read these numbers, I can pay you to go back to elementary school and receive some basic education!”

Selina’s face turned ghastly pale. Listening to Xiao Jing’s mean words, Merry frowned. “President Xiao, you can’t be so mean to us. We didn’t…”

“Shut up!” Xiao Jing gave her a black look and spoke in a cold voice, “I know people make mistakes, but didn’t you review these documents before submitting them? How do you manage people? If you really don’t have the ability, I can approve your resignation letter at any time!”

Merry’s heart sank and she looked at Xiao Jing in disbelief. She was an old employee of this company. She had been working in the Qiao’s International Group since graduation from university and now it had been over a decade. How could Xiao Jing say these words to her? Xiao Jing coldly looked at the shocked face of Merry and sneered. “You think you have been wronged? Then you should make an example! Look at what your subordinates are doing all day! Chatting! Gossiping! Gossip queens all of you, even your superiors in the company partake in the activity! Since you like gossip so much, then go be the paparazzi. Don’t stay in this company like moths that linger in a wardrobe!”

Xiao Jing said this without a single break. Then he picked up some documents and threw them to Linda. “Drink coffee? How do you have the cheek and the nerve to drink coffee? Are you sure the survey report was written by the Marketing Department staff? Even an elementary student can write a better report than them! Or haven’t you graduated from elementary school yet?”

Linda shrank her head into her neck. Xiao Jing coldly snorted and threw all the documents to the other secretaries. “Xiao Xing? Katherine? Wen Mei? Are you spies sent by other companies? How much did they pay you to work like this? How much courage did they give you to give me a runaround like this? Do you really think a secretary only needs to serve and pour tea? If so, why should I hire a secretary? I’d rather hire a professional waitress!”

The secretaries looked at Xiao Jing like wounded animals. Seeing their wronged look, Xiao Jing sneered. “Feeling wronged? Angry? Want to quit now? Good, if you dare drop your resignation letter on my desk, I will dare to approve it…” With an icy glance at the coffee they were holding in their hands, he sneered, “I spent only twenty minutes to finish reading the documents on which you spent three days, and I’ve found all of the problems in them. Tell me, what do I need you for?”

The secretaries were usually elevated onto a pedestal by the other employees of the company and so became proud and arrogant. Now after being scolded by Xiao Jing, they felt so wronged and angry at him. He probably hadn’t read many documents…

But they dared not say anything!

Seeing that they remained silent, Xiao Jing asked Merry in a frigid tone, “Did you review the files before you submitted them to me?”

“No,” Merry said, “My workload is quite heavy these days, so I didn’t review the documents.”

“You just need to tell me you didn’t review them. Don’t make so many excuses. Can your workload be heavier than mine?”

Merry said no more. Xiao Jing pointed to the pile of files on the ground and looked at the other secretaries, “Can you tell me that you really checked these files personally?

The secretaries didn’t speak. Xiao Jing sneered, “Throw these files into the trash can, and if this happens again I won’t scold you. Instead all of you will be fired! Though you may not care, you’d better think about it. If you’re fired because of poor performance, do you think that you’ll receive good treatment in your next company?”
