Chapter Ninety: Resigned



The company's colleagues outside the door listened with amazement.

Because of Ye Linchen's outstanding performance, they got together to discuss her.

I'm particularly curious about how a high school student would end up working part-time.

Now that you've seen this whole drama, what is there left to not understand?

Everyone felt particularly sorry for Ye Linchen.

Xiao Ye is so pitiful, how did she end up with such a mother!

Fortunately, she secured sponsorship; otherwise, what would she have done?

Old Zhou, who was at the company today, immediately interjected, "Ma'am, you don't go to work yourself, but instead make your daughter, who's in school, earn money for you. Your daughter ran away, and you even chased after her. Are you really Xiao Ye's biological mother? It doesn't sound like it!"

Meng Xueyun always considered herself young and beautiful, and her face turned red with anger when she heard Lao Zhou call her "auntie".

"Auntie? Who's the auntie? You're the grandpa!"

Old Zhou said nonchalantly, "That's right, I'm the boss, I'm your boss!"

Xiao Ye doesn't even give her mother any face, so why should he?

"You, you!"

Meng Xueyun's hands trembled as she pointed at Lao Zhou, saying "you" for a long time, but she didn't know how to retort. She then vented her anger on Ye Linchen.

"Look at these people, these are your colleagues! They have absolutely no manners!"

Before Ye Linchen could speak, Chen Meiqi fired the first shot.

Meng Xueyun's words implied that she lacked manners, so why should she tolerate it?

"You're the one with no manners! You dress all high and mighty, but you do the wrong things! I don't think someone like you could ever have a daughter as outstanding as Xiao Ye!" she said to Ye Linchen. "Xiao Ye, this woman is definitely not your biological mother, she's a wicked stepmother!"

Before Ye Linchen could speak, Xiao Xu disagreed.

"That's not necessarily true. I think it's definitely a case of favoring sons over daughters! They treat their own daughters harshly while raising their sons. They're women themselves, yet they think their daughters are a burden!"

Her grandmother was that kind of person, so she felt particularly touched.

Ye Linchen immediately retorted, "It's not just favoring boys over girls, it's being a brother-supporting demon! She only cares about her brother's daughter, forbidding me from studying and making me work to earn money to support her niece's education!"

"My God, is that true?" Chen Meiqi asked. "How are her niece's grades? Is it worth going to such lengths?"

Ye Linchen sneered: "I only scored 18 points on the exam, ranking last in the class. She can't stand that I'm better than her niece, and she wishes I would also have bad grades. If I don't do what she wants, she will try every means to sabotage my studies and prevent me from taking the college entrance exam."

Meng Xueyun came to the company to cause trouble without any regard for the consequences, so Ye Linchen naturally didn't hold back either!

"Eighteen points? My God!" Chen Meiqi gasped, covering her mouth in exaggerated surprise. "With that score, they probably wouldn't even graduate from elementary school! What's the point of supporting this? It's a complete waste of money!"

"Eighteen points? I used to be one of the worst students in the class, and I got more than eighteen points. With a score like this, what's the point of taking the exam? I might as well go to work and earn money!"

Meng Xueyun was so angry that her head was buzzing as she listened to her colleagues' unrestrained mockery.

She screamed, "As long as Xiaohan gets tutoring, she'll definitely get into university! Ye Linchen should use all the money he earns to pay for Xiaohan's tutoring!"

"This concerns her entire life!"

"Hahaha..." The colleagues burst into laughter.

"What are you dreaming about? Getting into university with a score of 18? Which school would accept you? You might as well build one yourself."

"This is hilarious! They ignore their own daughter but take care of their brother's daughter! What kind of logic is that?"

"Xiao Ye is preparing for college entrance exams! She can't even take care of herself, where would she find the money to tutor your niece?"

"Exactly! What was this mother thinking? Has she lost her mind?"

"Could it be that the niece is her illegitimate daughter, whom she gave to her brother and pretended to be his niece?"

Meng Xueyun was furious and didn't know who to refute. She pointed at Ye Linchen, stammering and unable to speak, her eyes red.

"You, you..."

It took her a long time to catch her breath before she gritted her teeth and cursed, "Ye Linchen, this is the heartless company you found, and a bunch of rude colleagues!"

"I like."

Ye Linchen smiled and waved to everyone, thanking them for their support.

However, given Meng Xueyun and Meng Zihan's greed, if they don't get their wages this month, they will definitely cause trouble again next month.

Ye Linchen didn't want the company to be affected by her personal affairs.

Moreover, I need to focus on preparing for the college entrance exam, and I plan to apply to universities in the north. I won't stay in Jiangcheng, as I won't be able to work here any longer.

Let's just go all the way and resign now, so as to put an end to Meng Xueyun's hopes!

Ye Linchen immediately took the pager off his waist and placed it on Xu's personnel desk.

"Sister Xu, I'm resigning. I have nothing to do with Jinqiao Company anymore. Also, my parents have passed away long ago. If anyone impersonates my parents and comes to ask for money again, just kick them out."

Xu, the personnel manager, was also very dissatisfied with Meng Xueyun's unreasonable behavior, but due to his position, he was unable to intervene and remained silent, allowing his colleagues to besiege Meng Xueyun.

Ye Linchen's sudden resignation surprised her.

"You've done a great job, you don't need to resign. Our company has security guards, and we won't let unauthorized people in."

Ye Linchen shook his head: "I've made up my mind. I'll focus on preparing for the exam for the next few months. I really don't have time to work."

"You unfilial daughter! How dare you curse me..."

When Meng Xueyun heard Ye Linchen say that she was dead, she was so angry that she cursed loudly from behind. Ye Linchen turned around and smiled gently at her.

"You can't do anything with your insults. Even if I stop working, you won't get a single penny!"

After speaking, Ye Linchen bowed deeply to HR Xu and his colleagues: "Thank you all for your help all this time! We'll meet again!"

Amidst enthusiastic applause from his colleagues, Ye Linchen turned and went downstairs.

As I reached the corner of the stairs, I saw a familiar figure downstairs.

The man was wearing a dark gray cashmere coat, a white shirt underneath, and a gray tie—a typical professional look.

On his sharply defined face, a pair of deep eyes, filled with a smile, were looking up at her.

It was Gu Jingran who went on a business trip to a coastal city right after the Chinese New Year.

"Gu Jingran, you're back from your business trip? What brings you to the company?"

Ye Linchen quickened his pace with delight.

"I arrived yesterday afternoon to discuss some business with your Manager Zhang."

Gu Jingran smiled and replied, "How have you been lately? Are you alright?"

"That went well. I just finished my first mock test today."

Is it difficult? Can you all do it?

"It's alright, I can handle it..."

Gu Jingran vaguely heard Meng Xueyun shouting upstairs and raised an eyebrow: "It sounds very noisy upstairs, what happened?"

Ye Linchen smiled faintly: "It's nothing serious. My mom came to the company to ask for my salary, but I refused."

How did she find her way here?

Gu Jingran had just asked the question when he seemed to suddenly realize something, and his brows furrowed slightly.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw Xu Renshi hurriedly chasing after him downstairs.

"Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye, wait a minute..."
