Chapter 358 Dismissal and Never to Be Rehired Again

Shen Sheng, standing outside the door, trembled in fright and tightened his grip on the lunchbox.

Lin Xiaoli paused for a moment, then replied without hesitation, "Of course not."

"You have other men?"

Sheng Tingxiao's handsome face darkened further.

Lin Xiaoli pushed him away, her eyes red-rimmed. "Sheng Tingxiao, are you here to confront me?"

"Then tell me, whose child is it?"

Shen Sheng cheered from outside the door, "Speak up, Xiao Li, hurry up and say it, be brave!"

Lin Xiaoli stared at him, Sheng Dong's two sentences echoing in her mind.

Even if she's pregnant with your child, she's not capable of shouldering the responsibilities of being the wife of the CEO of Sheng's Corporation!

Besides, given her background, how can you be sure she's not deliberately getting close to you for your money?

Therefore, this child is just a burden to him, and can't change anything.

She said earnestly, "In the future, whoever I marry, the children will be theirs."

Sheng Tingxiao was so angry that he felt a lump in his throat. He turned around, walked out onto the balcony, and lit a cigarette.

The doorbell rang, and Shen Sheng walked in carrying a lunchbox.

The air pressure inside the room was low. "Xiao Li, are you hungry? Come and eat."

He took out six lunch boxes, placed them on the table, and then gestured to her with his eyes.

Lin Xiaoli walked over and whispered, "President Sheng, would you like to have dinner together?"

"I have something to do, you eat by yourself."

Sheng Tingxiao looked displeased; his father had called him before he arrived, urging him to go home.

Now that he knows she has another man, he can no longer eat.

He turned and strode out, and Shen Sheng quickly followed him out.

Upon reaching the elevator, Sheng Tingxiao glanced at him and said coldly, "Go and find out which male colleague in the public relations department has the best relationship with Lin Xiaoli."

“We can’t let Yang Fan of Shengchuang Financial get away with this either. Let’s see what his relationship is with Lin Xiaoli.”

Yang Fan nervously replied: "It wasn't me, I won't take the blame for this."

Shen Sheng quickly nodded and agreed, then cautiously probed, "President Sheng, I think you're the one closest to Xiao Li. Is it possible that the child is yours?"

Sheng Tingxiao glanced at him, his tone harsh, "I slept with her, but we didn't do anything. Stop giving me that nonsense."

Shen Sheng's heart tightened: See? The person involved simply doesn't admit it. What good would it do if I said anything? (His readers' insults were in vain.)

"Bring Chen Jing back and make her tell the truth," Sheng Tingxiao added. Only in this way can Lin Xiaoli's innocence be completely cleared.

"yes."

Shen Sheng nodded.

When Sheng Tingxiao returned to the Sheng family, Sheng Chengjun's face was very ugly. "Did you do the things between the Qin family and the Zhou family of Rongcheng?"

"yes."

Sheng Tingxiao wasn't guilty at all.

"You've got guts! You've only been back for a month and you've wiped out two families. Is the Sheng family next?"

Sheng Chengjun was trembling with anger.

He just went to see Old Master Qin in person; he was barely alive and was crying, wanting to come over and apologize to Young Master Sheng.

The scene made Sheng Chengjun feel like he wasn't human.

Madam Sheng quickly came over and said, "Don't be angry, let's talk this out. Xiao'er, quickly pour your father a cup of tea."

Sheng Tingxiao walked over and was just picking up a teacup when Sheng Chengjun shouted again.

"I can't afford your tea, yet you insist on protecting that woman and going against the whole world?"

Sheng Tingxiao put down the teapot and looked at him. "Old man, you've loved before. If my mother is bullied, can you pretend nothing happened?"

"Xiao'er, shut up." Madam Sheng immediately stopped him; this brat dared to add fuel to the fire.

"You really like that Lin Xiaoli that much? What methods did she use to make you so infatuated?"

Sheng Chengjun paced back and forth in anger, his eyes scanning the hall, looking for a stick that he could easily grab.

“It’s precisely because she’s utterly infatuated with me that I’m so captivated by her.” Sheng Tingxiao’s tone was tense, and he added, “Your son doesn’t even have the chance to offer himself to her, so you shouldn’t expect to have a grandson.”

Sheng Chengjun: ...

Madam Sheng: ...

"You little bastard, I'll beat you to death." Sheng Chengjun grabbed a baseball bat from the corner of the wall.

The one that Sheng Weiwei often uses.

"Dad." An urgent voice rang out, and Gu Xingnian ran over and quickly stopped him.

It was Madam Sheng who called Gu Xingnian back, because she anticipated a fierce battle that night.

"Don't stop me, I'll wake him up." Sheng Chengjun swung his stick and charged over. Gu Xingnian tried to block him, but she was too weak.

Sheng Tingxiao rushed forward, grabbed his baseball bat with one hand, and put his arm around Gu Xingnian, who was about to fall.

You can't beat me!

Sheng Chengjun's face was as black as could be.

Just then, Fu Beichen walked in.

He immediately spotted his wife being held in another man's arms.

His eyes instantly turned cold and sharp!

"Let her go."

Fu Beichen strode forward, roughly shoved Sheng Tingxiao aside, and snatched Gu Xingnian back into his arms, holding her tightly.

Sheng Tingxiao was pushed back two steps. After regaining his balance, he didn't even bother to give him a glance.

"I've arranged a marriage for you with the eldest daughter of the Si family. Forget about marrying another woman."

Sheng Chengjun's voice suddenly rang out, carrying an unquestionable command.

"Give up on that idea too. I won't marry anyone." Sheng Tingxiao's tone was icy cold.

"After the Tong family fell, the Si family became the largest family in F country, holding global new energy industries. Rumor has it that the eldest daughter of the Si family is exceptionally beautiful and talented. Brother, you won't lose out by marrying her."

Fu Beichen held the person in his arms and kindly offered a word of advice.

"Fu Beichen, such a good woman, why don't you marry her? Marrying our Niannian would be beneath you."

Sheng Tingxiao's eyes burned with fire.

"You brat, what are you saying?" Madam Sheng rushed over and slapped him.

Fu Beichen glared at him coldly, a sneer curling at the corner of his lips. "You don't want to marry her because you have something to hide. You're thinking about someone you shouldn't be thinking about."

"Bang!"

Sheng Tingxiao could no longer hold back and threw a punch.

Tonight, all he wants to do is fight.

Should we take action?

Fu Beichen had wanted to beat him up for a long time.

Two tall men instantly started punching and kicking each other.

"stop!"

The scene was in complete chaos.

When Bai Yu returned, both men had bruises on their faces and blue or purple lips.

In the end, Gu Xingnian was so angry that she trembled all over and broke away from everyone and ran away. Fu Beichen saw this and quickly chased after her.

Gu Xingnian pushed away his outstretched hand. "Fu Beichen, do you not want to hold the wedding anymore?"

"Of course it has to be held, there are only ten days left." He counts the days on his fingers every day, you can only ask him to cancel it if he dies.

"Go apologize to your older brother, or you can marry yourself!" Gu Xingnian said ruthlessly.

"Why? He was the one who struck first." Fu Beichen said, looking indignant.

"You started this fight! If you care so much about my past with him, then don't marry me!"

"You're still protecting him?" Fu Beichen's handsome face turned as black as charcoal.

"Incomprehensible!" Gu Xingnian glared at him, turned around, opened the car door, got in, and shouted at the driver's seat, "Drive!"

Old Lu shrank his neck, not daring to move.

The car only started moving slowly after Fu Beichen got into the car with a dark expression.

Seeing that she was truly angry, Fu Beichen had no choice but to put aside his own emotions and shamelessly approach her.

He brought his face close to hers and spoke in a pitiful tone.

"Honey, my older brother beat me up. Can you take a look and tell me if I'm not handsome anymore?"

Gu Xingnian rolled her eyes at him, turned her head to look out the window, and ignored him.

He rested his head directly on her shoulder and said in a serious tone,

“Yesterday, a master told me that I would have a bloody disaster today. I asked him if he could transfer my wife’s bloody disaster to me. He said yes, unless I also bleed today.”

"So, I deliberately put my handsome face up to him so he could beat me up. Look, my face is swollen and my lip is cut."

Gu Xingnian glanced at him. This guy would make up any story to coax people; he had no shame at all.

He buried his head in the crook of her neck again, his warm breath spraying onto her sensitive skin.

"Honey, don't be angry. You said you would never leave me in this lifetime."

"You mustn't go back on your word. Otherwise, I'll take my son and become a nun."

He's even learned to threaten her now?

Gu Xingnian really had no way to deal with him, and let out a heavy sigh of relief.

“Fu Beichen, your older brother likes Lin Xiaoli. Now, Dad doesn’t approve of their relationship, and he’s in a bad mood, so please don’t make things worse for him.”

Fu Beichen suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with surprise, "Are you serious?"

“Of course, Weiwei told me everything. The day he brought Xiaoli home for dinner, Dad immediately declared that he would never let Lin Xiaoli into the Sheng family.”

Gu Xingnian's voice was muffled.

Fu Beichen's heart skipped a beat. "As long as he apologizes to me, I'll lend him my strategist. It's a win-win situation."

Gu Xingnian ignored him.

Fu Beichen then pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.

"Okay, don't be angry, I'll think of something." He lowered his head and gently kissed her lips.

"Okay, Niannian, don't be angry, okay? How about I put in more effort tonight to make it up to you?"

Gu Xingnian blushed and pushed him away, "Stay away from me."

Fu Beichen raised the small partition inside the car, blocking the view of the person in front, and whispered something in her ear that only the two of them could hear.

"Fu Beichen, have you no shame?"

Gu Xingnian's face instantly burned.

Fu Beichen chuckled softly, then kissed her lips.

Before long, the car came to a smooth stop at a scenic bay.

The driver wisely fled.

Fu Beichen became obsessed with her... he insisted on taking her to experience something new.

...

The next day, Lin Xiaoli was on her way to the company.

The sun was shining brightly, and her mood brightened accordingly. She cleared all the information from the internet.

Suddenly, a large crowd gathered in front of her, pointing in her direction.

"It's her, that shameless mistress."

A shrill female voice shattered the tranquility of the street.

The next second, a cold, sticky liquid was poured down from above.

It's milk tea.

Before Lin Xiaoli could react, even more things came crashing down on her.

Eggs, rotten green vegetable leaves, you name it.

The foul-smelling egg yolk slid down her hair, into her collar, and stuck to her skin.

"Shameless! Stealing someone else's husband and acting so arrogantly, just smash her to death."

"He dresses like a respectable person, but he's a scumbag at heart."

The crowd instantly surrounded her, followed by insults and shoving.

"What are you doing? Get out of here."

Lin Xiaoli screamed, instinctively clutching her stomach with her right hand, and retreated step by step to the corner of the wall, with nowhere left to go.

"The mistress is despicable."

Those random things kept hitting her.

It hit her so hard that her back and shoulders ached.

Just when she was about to give up.

"stop."

A furious male voice rang out.

Sheng Tingxiao and Shen Sheng pushed through the crowd and rushed over.

Sheng Tingxiao pulled her into his arms and wrapped her completely in his expensive black coat.

A warm breath instantly enveloped her.

Before they stopped, eggs and vegetable leaves rained down on his broad back.

One muffled thud after another.

Shen Sheng spread his arms and stood behind Sheng Tingxiao, shouting at the crowd.

"stop.

Do you all want to end up in jail? I've already called the police.

Upon hearing that the police were coming, the group scattered like birds and beasts, running faster than anyone else.

Sheng Tingxiao then released the person in his arms.

Lin Xiaoli was a mess, her hair, face, and body covered in egg yolk, milk tea stains, and rotten vegetable juice.

She was trembling violently, and her eyes were frighteningly red.

"It's alright, don't be afraid."

His voice was low and deep.

Sheng Tingxiao took out a handkerchief from his pocket and gently wiped the stains off her face.

Then, he took off his own coat, which was also damaged, and wrapped it around her thin body again. With a strong movement, he lifted her up in his arms.

He strode towards home.

She nestled in his arms, her body trembling uncontrollably.

Ten minutes later, two trending topics suddenly appeared at the top of the list, followed by a dark red "hot" sign.

#Lin Xiaoli, the mistress, seduces the heir of the Sheng family#

#The Love Affair Between the Boss and Employees of Sheng's Company#

Clicking on it reveals a high-definition video of Sheng Tingxiao taking off his coat, wrapping it around her, and carrying her away.

The video's comment section exploded.

"Holy crap, this is the biggest scandal of the year! Has President Sheng been bewitched?"

"Who is this woman? She looks ordinary, but she's so cunning?"

"Did your village just get internet access, upstairs? She's that mistress from a few days ago, hooking up with another one, so shameless."

"Is President Sheng blind? Why would he turn down such a woman when there are so many socialites out there?"

Soon, someone dug up photos of them dancing at the company's anniversary celebration.

The two people in the photo look well-matched and intimate.

New accusations have emerged.

"It's confirmed. This woman has been hooking up with President Sheng for a long time. She's two-timing him. Amazing."

"My heart aches for all the single socialites in Haicheng for a second."

Negative news flooded the market, and Shengshi's stock plummeted, turning a deep red.

The group's public relations department was inundated with calls; everyone was incredibly busy.

One wave subsides, another rises.

Just then, a company-wide announcement popped up in the internal email.

[Notice of Dismissal Regarding Lin Xiaoli: Following a group-wide decision, employee Lin Xiaoli has been dismissed and will never be rehired due to her chaotic personal life, which has severely damaged the company's reputation.]

The document was signed by the Chairman's Secretariat.

The public relations department colleagues were all shocked when they saw the notice.

The dismissal notice was personally signed by the chairman.

It seems that Lin Xiaoli is completely finished this time.

When Sheng Tingxiao saw this message, the anger in his eyes almost burned out.

He suppressed his emotions and comforted Lin Xiaoli, telling her to go take a shower first, while he turned around and went back to the company.

After taking a shower, Lin Xiaoli came out with her hair still wet and immediately saw an internal email from the HR department on her phone.

The words "never to be hired" are cold and harsh.

Before she could even process the news, the phone rang.

It was Shen Sheng; his voice sounded extremely urgent.

"Xiao Li, come to the president's office right away. The chairman wants to fire President Sheng as well."

Lin Xiaoli's mind went blank for a moment.

"how so?"

"You and President Sheng are trending on social media. Your videos are all over the internet, and Sheng's stock keeps falling."

Lin Xiaoli's fingers trembled as she opened the news app.

The video of her and Sheng Tingxiao was displayed in the most prominent position on the homepage.

Tens of thousands of comments, the language of which was utterly offensive.

They called her a seduce CEO Sheng and shameless.

Some people also criticized President Sheng for being blind, having been blinded by greed, and falling for a trashy mistress like her.

She immediately called Shen Sheng back.

"Brother Sheng, what do we do now?"

On the other end of the phone, Shen Sheng remained silent for several seconds.

"Xiao Li, now that things have come to this, there's only one way."

"Go and confess to Chairman Sheng."

“Tell him that you are pregnant with President Sheng’s child. You and President Sheng are truly in love.”

"This way, we can clarify that you are not Zhou Yu's mistress, protect President Sheng, and perhaps... Chairman Sheng will show leniency."

Lin Xiaoli held her phone, thinking for a long time.

Finally, she said one word.

"good."

She hung up the phone, changed her clothes as quickly as possible, and rushed out the door...
