Chapter 436 Dong Yuanjiu's Sincerity
Seeing that Dong Yuanjiu was taking his anger out on him, Shi Ding had no choice but to shut up.
He no longer had the authority to advise on how to deal with those people.
Everyone in the base knows that Liu Shengtian and Jia Weiqiang are his confidants. Now that they have been dealt with and he has done nothing, he fears that his popularity and prestige among his subordinates will be greatly diminished.
This made Shi Ding hate Pei Yi's team to the core.
What are those two women pretending for? He's the deputy manager of Phoenix Base, and countless men and women want to get into his bed. He doesn't need to judge their worth.
In the following meetings, Shi Ding had no chance to speak; he basically did whatever Dong Yuanjiu said he would do.
...
After lunch break, it was already 3:30 pm.
The sun isn't as strong now.
After getting up, Ling Ran lay down on the massage chair for a massage, which was her recent favorite.
Getting a massage while eating and watching TV shows is so enjoyable.
Everyone else was busy with their own things, but Su Yimo had nothing to do. She lay on another massage chair, placed the tablet in the middle, and watched a drama with Ling Ran.
"I think the female lead will definitely suffer from amnesia."
"I think so too. It's only been a few episodes, and she's already all lovey-dovey with the male lead. She must have amnesia."
As the two were discussing the plot, there was another knock on the repaired wooden door. This time, the knock was very polite, with three light knocks followed by a polite inquiry: "Excuse me, are Mr. Pei Yi and Ms. Ling Ran at home? I am Dong Yuanjiu, the manager of Phoenix Base."
"The management of Phoenix Base? What's he doing here?" Su Yimo frowned. "He's not here to cause trouble, is he?"
"Not really."
"I'll go open the door."
Su Yimo got up to open the door, attracting the attention of the others who were busy with other things.
The door opened, and a group of people stood outside. The man at the head was about 1.8 meters tall, with a burly and muscular build. His features were not particularly handsome, but he looked upright and dignified, the kind of face that could easily convince people that he was a good person.
I don't recognize the people behind me, except for Liu Shengtian and Jia Weiqiang, who are tied up.
Well, judging by this, it seems they've come to apologize.
Su Yimo crossed her arms, and Pei Yi walked over: "Manager Dong, right? I'm Pei Yi. May I ask why you've come?"
"Hello, Mr. Pei."
Dong Yuanjiu smiled and reached out to shake hands with Pei Yi. Pei Yi shook his face lightly, signaling him to continue.
"It's like this, I already know about the mistakes Liu Shengtian and Jia Weiqiang made. It was due to Dong's mismanagement that troubled Mr. Pei and Ms. Ling."
As Dong Yuanjiu spoke, he gestured for the men to bring Liu Shengtian and Jia Weiqiang up: "This matter is entirely Liu and Jia's fault. Although you have already taught them a lesson, I feel very bad. I brought them here for Mr. Pei to deal with. Whether they live or die, our base will not have any complaints. We only hope that Mr. Pei and Miss Ling can calm down."
His unusually humble attitude surprised Pei Yi.
If Dong Yuanjiu comes to hold him accountable today, then he will surely find a way to die.
However, how to handle this matter depends on Ling Ran's opinion, so Pei Yi looked at Ling Ran, and Dong Yuanjiu, who was standing at the door, also looked over.
He could still see inside the room from his position, not to mention that Ling Ran wasn't in a corner either, so he could clearly see that the person was sitting in a massage chair. Wait, a massage chair?
Dong Yuanjiu was lost in thought when he realized that these people were using a diesel generator.
Diesel fuel is an important resource. In the future, how many places in the base will need diesel fuel for production? How could they waste it like this and use it to generate electricity for their own enjoyment?
Besides that, the furnishings inside the house also shocked Dong Yuanjiu.
This squad seems to be even stronger than he imagined.
This layout is even better than the house he manages.
He looked at Ling Ran and added before she could speak, "Miss Ling, as long as you can calm down, you can make any requests you want."
Dong Yuanjiu couldn't explain why, but his intuition had already sounded the alarm, telling him that the person in front of him was not someone to be trifled with, and that offending her could be a matter of survival for the base—this was no exaggeration.
Liu Shengtian and Jia Weiqiang also looked at Ling Ran. Although they hated Ling Ran to the core, they did not show it on their faces. Instead, they cried and begged for mercy.
That sight made some of the onlookers feel sorry for her.
Ling Ran remained indifferent, showing no sympathy for them. Instead, she instructed, "Then Manager Dong, it wouldn't be too much to deal with these two as a gesture of sincerity, would it?"
"That's not excessive. I'll handle this matter and give Miss Ling a satisfactory explanation!"
Dong Yuanjiu understood what Ling Ran meant.
He hadn't expected to save Liu and Jia's lives from the start, but Ling Ran's decisiveness surprised him.
Pei Yi then picked up the conversation: "Is there anything else, Manager Dong?"
"It's alright. I just hope Mr. Pei and Ms. Ling know that personal behavior does not represent the base. I hope Phoenix Base has not made the team members feel unhappy."
"Rest assured, we have already felt Manager Dong's sincerity."
"Then I won't bother you any longer. One last thing, Mr. Pei, if you encounter any trouble at the base, feel free to come to me anytime. Also, our Phoenix Base welcomes all those with superpowers who are interested in joining us!"
Dong Yuanjiu left with his men, but they hadn't gone far when they heard Liu and Jia begging for mercy. Then, with several screams, Liu and Jia lost their lives.
Pei Yi and the others naturally saw all of this.
"This Dong Yuanjiu is quite decisive; he kills his own men without hesitation."
"Not necessarily." Gu Zijing, who came out of the room because the recording was disturbed, analyzed: "When we first came here, didn't we find out that there are two factions in this base? I'm afraid these two are from the other faction. I think his name is Shi something? He's a deputy manager."
Pei Yi nodded: "That's right, these two are probably the deputy manager. It can be said that the sincerity we want is exactly what Dong Yuanjiu expects, and there are many benefits to doing this."
"This has nothing to do with us. I don't believe that the deputy manager doesn't know about Liu Jia's matter. Now that Dong Yuanjiu is benefiting, it's good that the deputy manager can suffer a setback."
Hearing this, Su Yimo asked curiously, "Do you think that now that the deputy manager has lost two capable assistants, he might hold a grudge against us? Maybe he'll secretly try to get revenge on us?"
It's certain that she harbors resentment.
Whether or not a retaliation will be reported depends on how much power and confidence this deputy manager has.
