Xu Liang made a grand scene to welcome Liu Huanyi and the others. All the employees of Huo's company saw it and had discussed it privately.

Some gossipers went directly to the IT department to inquire, and happened to see Ma Bo, Xing Zhao and Wei Zhou competing with each other. So the whole company began to spread the news that Ma Bo had a conflict with the new team hired by President Huo.

"Who are you betting on to win? I'm betting on Ma Bo!"

"Damn it, you got there first. How did you know I wasn't betting on Ma Bo?"

"I saw the people that Mr. Huo invited today. They looked so young. Could they not have graduated yet?"

They were chatting animatedly in the tea room and didn't notice that there was someone behind them.

Huo Shu suddenly popped up and said, "Have you finished your work? Let's chat here."

"Boss Huo!"

The people who were chatting just now jumped up in fright, and hurriedly said that they had work to do and hurried back to their workstations.

Huo Shu deliberately waited until everyone had left before he gave a sly smile.

He went straight to Huo Yuli's office and closed the door mysteriously.

Huo Yuli looked at his uncle who was always in a bad mood and closed the file helplessly.

"Come on, what do you want to tell me?"

"As far as I know, Liu Huanyi had an argument with Ma Bo and the others as soon as he arrived today. Do you want to step in and resolve it?"

Huo Yuli's sharp brows sank, wondering why Xu Liang didn't tell him about this.

"Why are we quarreling on the first day?"

"Isn't this normal? Ma Bo is a well-known boss in the IT department. He has a lot of talent but a bad temper. But he's just like that to other people, but to Liu Huanyi... How about I ask Xu Liang to talk to him?"

"No need."

Huo Yuli frowned, "The company treated them too well, and they had nothing better to do than to pick a fight. Since they are so ignorant, they should learn a lesson so that they won't provoke others in the future."

"No, you are so open-minded?" Huo Shu scratched his head. This was different from what he thought. He thought Huo Yuli would protect Liu Huanyi and scold Ma Bo. "Aren't you afraid that Liu Huanyi will suffer? Ma Bo is not a person who will show mercy. If Liu Huanyi is scolded and cries, you will have to spend time to comfort her."

Huo Yuli shook his head and didn't care.

"It's impossible for her to suffer a loss, let alone cry."

"Oh, you are so confident in her. How far have you two progressed?"

Huo Shu leaned forward, looking curious, "Tell me something quickly, you know the old man is almost driving me to death."

"No comment, get out, I need to work."

Huo Shu complained that Huo Yuli was ruthless, "Someone needs to come and teach you a lesson."

Just after six o'clock, Hu Die knocked on the table and pointed at the clock excitedly.

"It's six o'clock! Off duty!"

Xing Zhao immediately closed the documents and said with a distressed look, "I almost have to work overtime, but I can't work even a little bit longer."

If they were working for Liu Huanyi, they would be willing to work overtime no matter how long it took, but if they were working for the Huo family, they could only promise not to fish in troubled waters.

Overtime? Don’t even think about it!

"What are we going to eat later? Grilled fish? Boss, do you want to eat it?"

Hu Die couldn't wait to search for delicious food nearby, planning to eat before going home.

Xing Zhao didn't want to eat grilled fish, and immediately retorted, "Let's eat barbecue. Didn't the boss say he wanted to eat barbecue last time?"

Wei Zhou disagreed, "The smell of barbecue is too strong, she doesn't like it."

They were discussing enthusiastically, without controlling the volume at all. When Liu Huanyi passed by the conference room and saw that the lights were still on, he took a few more glances.

Unexpectedly, the door of the conference room was not closed properly, and Liu Huanyi happened to meet Ma Bo's eyes.

Ma Bo laughed sarcastically, "You leave work so punctually. You come in late and leave early. How much work have you done this afternoon? It's time to leave work again."

"It's better than you just sitting here and staring." Hu Die immediately replied with a smile, her eyebrows curved but her words sharp.

"How do you know we were just staring blankly? We were just working overtime! If Mr. Huo hadn't invited a bunch of rubbish back to slow down our progress, we would have left long ago."

Hu Die nodded vigorously, "You are right, Mr. Huo really hired a bunch of rubbish. They can't even make a chat software. Mr. Huo has to spend a lot of money to buy it from us."

Ma Bo slammed the table and stood up, staring at Hu Die, pointing at her nose and saying fiercely: "Say it again if you have the guts!"

As soon as Ma Bo started to make a move, Wei Zhou and Xing Zhao, unwilling to be outdone, stood in front of Hu Die and glared at Ma Bo.

"What are you going to do?! You want to hit someone? Come on! I'm not afraid of you!"

Although Xing Zhao and Wei Zhou worked on computers every day, they were younger and had better physiques and strength than Ma Bo, so Ma Bo was immediately at a disadvantage.

Xu Liang didn't want to make things worse, so he quickly forced a smile.

"Xiao Liu, tell your people to relax a little. Ma Bo has no bad intentions. He is just joking with you."

Liu Huanyi didn't buy it. She wanted to teach Ma Bo a lesson when Ma Bo pointed his finger at Hu Die, but Xing Zhao and Wei Zhou got there first.

"A joke is only a joke if we find it funny, otherwise it is a provocation."

Xu Liang didn't expect that this little girl would be so ungrateful, and his face froze slightly. However, because there were many colleagues from other departments walking by, he didn't want any rumors to reach Huo Yuli's ears, so he could only clench his fists and continue to persuade her.

"Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth. We need to live in peace so that we can make money together. Ma Bo said those things because he was in a bad mood after a day of meetings. Just give me some face and don't take it personally."

Tsk, you are nothing, why should I give you face? Xing Zhao sneered in his heart.

He was really worried that the boss would give Xu Liang this face and let bygones be bygones.

But fortunately Liu Huanyi didn't do that. She went back very firmly: "Team Leader Xu, the person who keeps causing trouble is your man, not mine. You should say to him that peace brings wealth."

Xu Liang's face froze completely, "Xiao Liu——"

"Team Leader Xu, take care of your people. Today is only the first day of our cooperation. I can let it go." Liu Huanyi took a step forward and scanned everyone in the IT department. He stayed on Ma Bo for a long time before continuing, "If you mess with us again or say something mean, I won't be as easy to talk to as I was today."

The boss is so domineering! Hu Die applauded Liu Huanyi in her heart. She simply worshipped the boss to death.

Wei Zhou and Xing Zhao had the same idea as her, and they turned into fans and surrounded Liu Huanyi as he left.

The dispute just now attracted many employees who were about to get off work to watch. When they saw Liu Huanyi and others coming out, they involuntarily made way for her.

Only after Liu Huanyi walked away did they look at Xu Liang.

There were a few people who usually had a good relationship with Xu Liang and wanted to ask Xu Liang what was going on, but were driven away by Xu Liang.

"Let's all go away, there's nothing to see!"

Those who wanted to make fun of others didn’t dare to say more. They hurried off work and turned around to gossip in the group.
