Chapter 97 Battle Against the Scumbag
Chapter 97 Battle Against the Scumbag
Qu Xiaoxiao didn't really not want to marry Zhang Liangjun; she ended the conversation with a joke just to avoid making things too awkward for herself.
She wasn't stupid; she had long realized her place in Zhang Liangjun's heart—she held no place at all! But she was just pathetic, for some reason, even knowing Zhang Liangjun wasn't a good match, she just couldn't let go! It felt like adopting a child, even though the child wasn't hers, she just couldn't sever ties! Zhang Liangjun's passivity was the nemesis of all those obsessed with looks!
…………
Having realized Bai Yanle's true nature as a scumbag, Qiu Yingying stopped giving him the time of day at work. Bai Yanle was confused; they had been fine just yesterday, had dinner together, and he seemed like an easily fooled naive girl. Why did he suddenly turn on her the very next day?
Bai Yanle pretended to be on the phone with a client, but actually called Qiu Yingying, saying, "Yingying, do you have time this afternoon? I'd like to invite you to lunch!"
The naive and innocent Qiu Yingying wouldn't give Bai Yanle any face! "Bai, don't bother with me. I've already had someone investigate you. I really didn't expect you to have slept with so many old women! You scumbag, you filthy liar! Go to hell!"
"Beep beep beep," Bai Yanle's phone went dead.
Bai Yanle was furious. She'd been coaxing her for two days, and now she thought she was something special? This silly girl needed a good talking to; a few more reprimands and she'd behave.
So, a reimbursement form given to Qiu Yingying by her supervisor got stuck in the finance department, with the first reason being that Qiu Yingying had signed it in pencil, making it unsuitable for long-term storage. Qiu Yingying waited a long time before Bai Yanle returned to the company, but Bai Yanle still refused to approve it, saying that her invoice was fake.
Qiu Yingying didn't argue with Bai Yanle. Instead, she took the invoice to her superior and repeated Bai Yanle's words. The superior, embarrassed, realized it wasn't fake, just irregular. Such invoices had been reimbursed before; it was an unspoken rule. After a moment's thought, he understood: Bai Yanle was bullying people again! He gave Qiu Yingying a severe dressing-down, accusing her of incompetence, and told her to go find Bai Yanle again. The superior knew that if he could get Bai Yanle to vent his anger or achieve his goal, the expense would be reimbursed!
Qiu Yingying walked out of the office. Her boss watched her retreating figure and sighed dejectedly. It was unclear whether he was lamenting Bai Yanle's lack of respect, regretting his own complicity, or simply sympathizing with Qiu Yingying.
Bai Yanle glanced at the invoice and said, "This accommodation invoice is past the reimbursement deadline and needs to be accompanied by a written explanation. Qiu Yingying, you submit expense reports every day, don't you even know this simple rule?"
Qiu Yingying argued forcefully, "Everyone has always done it this way. We already discussed this at the last meeting. From now on, all reimbursements will be based on actual expenses!"
"The finance department also operates according to financial rules and regulations. If it was discussed in the meeting, you need to produce the meeting minutes. If you don't have them, does that mean anyone can change the rules? Or are you just enriching yourself at the expense of the company?" Bai Yanle was fearless. The meeting minutes couldn't possibly be in Qiu Yingying's hands. Even if you could get them, there would be other obstacles.
Qiu Yingying's boss called again to push things along, and Qiu Yingying's mental defenses were about to collapse. But Bai Yanle was just an ordinary person in his thirties, only a few years older than Qiu Yingying, and his experience wasn't very rich either, so he didn't realize that Qiu Yingying was about to explode.
"Hey Bai, I know you're doing this on purpose. I'm asking you, according to the old rules, are you going to report it or not?"
"I'm just following the company's rules and regulations; I won't report it!"
Qiu Yingying pressed her hands down on the table, looking intimidating. "Are you deliberately messing with me? If I pull out the meeting minutes, do you have another trick up your sleeve?"
Bai Yanle also stood up, placing his hands on the table as well. The difference was that Bai Yansong's face now wore a lecherous, ugly expression. "Fuck you? Of course I'll fuck you! I'll fuck you, hehehe!"
Qiu Yingying's anger finally reached its peak! Her pent-up rage exploded. She turned quickly, expressionless, and stormed out of Bai Yanle's office. In the outer common area, she began loudly denouncing Bai Yanle's crimes, "Manager! Manager! I'm reporting him! Supervisor Bai abuses his position for personal gain, settles scores, and plays tricks. He won't reimburse me. He was pursuing me, and when I discovered his despicable character, he deliberately obstructed my reimbursement process. He colluded with the factories to mix his meal and massage receipts into their entertainment expenses for reimbursement! There's an invoice from Mingxiang Restaurant on August 13th, and another from a massage parlor on August 19th. He told me that as long as the amounts weren't too large, they could be mixed together for reimbursement."
Many people in the office stood up, and those who were further away came over to watch.
When Qiu Yingying saw that everyone was looking at her, she got even more excited. "Manager Bai went to hotels with a lot of old women. Those old women are too old for him to be his mother. He still wants to pursue me? If I expose him, he'll take revenge and suppress my expense reports!"
Bai Yanle quickly tried to explain to everyone, attempting to salvage the situation, "It's alright, everyone go back! She's gone mad! These are all fabricated stories, completely unfounded! Everyone go back!"
"Everything I said is true! You can check if you don't believe me. He told me about the reimbursement himself!"
"Did I say that myself? I'm going to hit you again!" Bai Yanle couldn't control himself and started to make a move. Qiu Yingying was not one to be trifled with either; she was fearless and wanted to argue with Bai Yanle.
The people in the office rushed to pull Bai Yanle away, as they couldn't let him actually hit Qiu Yingying. Immediately, the scene became chaotic.
"Stop! What are you doing?" A dignified voice rang out from behind the crowd. Those on the outer edge of the crowd heard it first and gradually quieted down. Those in the inner circle were very perceptive and also sensed something, so they stopped making a sound.
When Bai Yanle saw the manager arrive, and even the general manager came, he quickly explained, "President Sun, Manager Xu, she's gone mad! She's spouting nonsense and making false accusations. She deliberately got close to me to get me to cover for her in the company in order to submit fake invoices! You can't believe what this woman says!"
Qiu Yingying suddenly saw a figure and froze, completely unmoved even by Bai Yanle's false accusations. She stood there dumbfounded for a long time before finally giving an awkward smile as a greeting.
The "General Manager Sun" that Bai Yanle mentioned ignored Bai Yanle and instead looked at Zhang Liangjun and his group, saying apologetically, "General Manager Li, I'm really sorry to have made you laugh."
The visitors were Zhang Liangjun and his company team. Zhang Liangjun had concealed his identity, blending into the inspection team as Li Guoxiang's deputy. They approached the company under the guise of discussing cooperation, proposing a contract for game-related toys, which the company took very seriously. Zhang Liangjun had thought he would have to wait until Li Guoxiang and his team saw it before relaying the information to him, but unexpectedly, he encountered Qiu Yingying's outburst—their arrival was perfectly timed!
"Mr. Li, this way please. This is just an unexpected situation. They will handle it in a moment!" Although Mr. Sun felt that this deal was unlikely, he still wanted to try. The process had to be followed.
"Okay, Mr. Sun, you can handle this first, and we'll talk again later." Li Guoxiang didn't understand why Zhang Liangjun would give the order to such a small company, and even go undercover to follow him to this small company, but that didn't matter. Working under Zhang Liangjun, he just needed to be obedient!
"Okay, Mr. Li, please wait in the meeting room for a moment, I'll be right there!" Mr. Sun smiled as he saw Zhang Liangjun and his group off, then turned to the HR manager, "What are you all standing here for? Get them out of here! I told you yesterday that a major client would be coming to discuss cooperation today, is this how you greet clients? And what's with this white hat! Have someone investigate him! Alright! Alright! Everyone, stop standing here watching the show, don't you all have work to do? Go do what you're supposed to be doing!"
