Chapter 139 Resignation Letters (1/2)
Xiao Bing did not come back, instead, he stayed in Yezi's home. After the meeting, Yezi summoned the thousands of employees and delivered a speech, utilizing a strategy combing both ”hard” and ”soft” means. It was hard for Xiao Bing to imagine that Yezi, a girl who did not have much experience in society and in such situations, could handle things this skillfully.
Xiao Bing surmised that given several month's time, Yezi's ability of management probably would be no less than Ye Tianming's. Time was what she needed most.
When Xiao Bing lay down beneath the sheet, he suddenly heard the door being opened. ”Damn, is there a female ghost in this house? Could it be Ye Xinyi, the most beautiful one in Jiang City? She still wants to flirt with me?”
Xiao Bing recalled that Ye Xinyi had come to him several times, saying that she wanted to be with him. But he refused. It was possible that it was her ghost. ”Damn, I should take Yezi to the Su family. This house is haunted.”
The sound of footsteps got closer. Suddenly Xiao Bing's sheet was lifted. Then Xiao Bing felt that someone had slipped into his sheets. Xiao Bing screamed, ”Dammit. Help!”
The lamp on the nightstand was suddenly turned on. Seemingly angry, Yezi questioned him, ”You think I'm taking advantage of you?”
Upon realizing that it was Yezi, Xiao Bing grinned awkwardly. ”Why did you come here in the middle of the night? I thought you were a ghost.”
”Why would a pretty girl want to take advantage of a lecher?”
Yezi was wearing tight pajamas, which meant that most of her smooth skin was exposed. Xiao Bing swallowed. He said in embarrassement, ”What are you doing here in my bed?”
”I want to sleep with you!”
”Bang!” Xiao Bing felt like a bomb exploded in his head. Liquid began running down from his nose. Surprised, Yezi said, ”Brother Bing, your nose is bleeding.”
”Really? Maybe its leftover from the injury. Wait a moment. I'll come back soon.”
Xiao Bing briskly got out of bed, dashed out of the bedroom, and went into the bathroom. Yezi opened her big, beautiful eyes wide and slipped into the sheets. Then she giggled triumphantly. ”I can't believe his nose bled.”
Xiao Bing washed his face with cold water in the bathroom and shook his head with chagrin. For some unknown reason, he always lost his composure when he was with Yezi. He was as nervous as a little boy.
Xiao Bing left the bathroom when he restored his composure. He went back to his room and slipped into the sheets.
Looking at Yezi under the same sheet as him, Xiao Bing forced a smile. ”Girl, what are you doing here? To seduce me?”
”In your dreams. I just felt a little bored and lonely, and scared...” Yezi's voice suddenly sounded low. ”Can you hug me, Brother Bing?”
Xiao Bing deeply understood what Yezi was going through. He felt his heart break when seeing Yezi like this, especially when he stared at her big eyes, which were seemingly speaking of how she felt wronged.
Xiao Bing reached out his hands and gently cuddled her and spoke softly. ”Yezi, no matter what happens, Brother Bing will always be by your side.”
”Thanks, Brother Bing. I finally know how hard it was for my father to run this company. Do you believe that I'm capable of running it?”
”You've been doing great. It's a great speech you gave them tonight in the company. If I were an employee of yours, I would definitely be spurred on by your speech and work harder,” said Xiao Bing, grinning.
Faintly sighing, Yezi said, ”But you aren't. You thought that I didn't see the way they looked at me, especially those managers. They all have their schemes. The secretary is right. Some of them were promoted by my father, and some by my sister and brother or other board members. But none of them have anything to do with me.
”The ones who are grateful to the Ye family might still be loyal to the company. But the confidants of the board members perhaps will be trouble for me.”
”That couldn't be better.” Xiao Bing snorted, ”You just took over the company. It's the perfect time for you to see who really deserves to be in this company.”
Yezi gasped, then she asked, ”You mean that the company needs a cleaning-up?”
”No,” said Xiao Bing. ”Although I have never run a company, I know that the managers of the departments earned their positions through years of self-tempering. They have acquired many skills and many of them are very capable. If too many of them are forced to leave, that will be a huge loss for the company, and it possibly will make the gears stop spinning.”
”You're suggesting that I should make examples to warn others?” asked Yezi. ”Punish their leaders to let others know that I'm not so weak. Then I should implement the policy of incentives and penalties to establish prestige?”
