But even if he can't win, he won't admit defeat in front of so many people!

So many colleagues are watching me. It would be so embarrassing if I admitted defeat.

"Well, you guys are awesome. Let's go back and continue the meeting."

"Where are you going back to?"

Liu Huanyi slammed the table, smiling, "Do you think you can come and go as you please? You questioned our work, and after we produced evidence, what should you say? What should you do now?"

What the hell are you doing... Ma Bo immediately signaled to Xu Liang with his eyes, asking him to help him out.

Xu Liang said with a smile, "It's not that serious. We are all colleagues in the same company. Why should we make it so unpleasant?"

"You were all there, you saw it clearly, we didn't want to cause trouble, he was the one who wanted to provoke us." "We were only here for a few days, he was the one who caused the trouble, and he didn't even apologize after that! This matter can't just go away like this, you guys think about how to apologize to us."

Liu Huanyi pulled over a chair and sat down, looking at them with raised eyebrows.

Xu Liang also sat down and said calmly: "We are all colleagues. What good will it do if you make such a big fuss? It will be very embarrassing."

“I don’t think it’s ugly.”

Liu Huanyi was unwilling to give him this face. "We didn't do anything wrong, nor did we suspect anyone. Why should I feel embarrassed? As the team leader, you should have managed your team members well, but you allowed your team members to attack and hurt others like this."

Xing Zhao wanted to slap his palms until they were broken for her.

"Well said, Boss!"

Liu Huanyi gave him a look, signaling him to be quiet, and Hu Die quickly pushed him down on his seat, "Stop talking, you're disturbing the boss's performance."

"Oh." Xing Zhao sat down obediently, but his hands were ready to applaud and cheer for Liu Huanyi at any time.

Xu Liang was insulted by Liu Huanyi in front of so many people. A crack appeared on his face for a second, but he quickly covered it up.

"Ms. Liu, I think you misunderstood. Our colleagues are all very friendly. They are just normal work handover and communication. Don't get too excited." Xu Liang wanted to pass the blame, but was retorted by Liu Huanyi.

"Other colleagues suggested discussing this, but what about you? As the team leader, you saw him provoking us time and again, so why didn't you do anything about it? Or did he do this at your behest?"

"Of course not!"

Xu Liang quickly said, "This is purely his personal behavior. It has nothing to do with me."

"Then apologize."

Liu Huanyi crossed his arms across his chest, his attitude was firm and clear, that is, he must apologize.

No apology, nothing to discuss.

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, someone suddenly said, "Boss Huo is here."

The crowd quickly split into two groups and Huo Yuli walked over.

Liu Huanyi's heart beat faster for a moment, but she thought that she was just excited to see Huo Yuli coming to seek justice, and she was definitely not excited for anything else.

Seeing them all gathered here, a hint of surprise flashed in Huo Yuli's eyes.

"What are you doing here during working hours?"

Liu Huanyi was about to speak, but Ma Bo spoke first: "Mr. Huo, we are presenting the results of the first phase today. We just raised questions and doubts normally, but they reacted so violently to us."

"Yes, Mr. Huo." Xu Liang nodded, not giving Liu Huanyi a chance to speak. "They don't usually work with us, and suddenly they have produced very impressive work results. It's normal for our colleagues to be suspicious. Wouldn't it be fine as long as we explain it clearly? But they are aggressive and keep holding on to this misunderstanding."

Xu Liang wanted to make a big thing small, a small thing nothing, and it sounded very light.

Huo Yuli ignored him and asked Liu Huanyi directly: "Do you think it's a misunderstanding?"

"Of course not."

Ma Bo has always been the one who found fault voluntarily, and Liu Huanyi has answered every question he raised. However, he insisted that they were unworthy of their positions, which was clearly targeting the people rather than the matter.

Ma Bo's face froze, and he had already cursed Liu Huanyi in his heart.

But he thought, he has been working in the company for so long and his previous work was excellent. Mr. Huo has seen it all and he probably won't say anything. He is probably just trying to fool him.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yuli was serious this time.

"Mabo, apologize."

Ma Bo looked at Huo Yuli in disbelief, "Boss Huo, do you want me to apologize to them?"

"right."

Everyone was stunned.

I didn't expect that President Huo would ask his own people to apologize in order to protect an outsider.

Ma Bo even retorted: "I have worked hard for the company over the past few years, worked countless overtime and pulled countless all-nighters. Now it's just a misunderstanding, why do you have to hold me over it?"

After that, Ma Bo pointed at Xing Zhao and the others and said, "They leave at a certain time every day and never stay for a moment. I work overtime until two or three o'clock every day and come to work in the morning. I am the one who works hard for the company!"

Ma Bo's words resonated with many colleagues, and even those who had stood idly by at first stood silently behind Ma Bo.

Mr. Huo's favoritism towards Liu Huanyi's team is obvious. If Mr. Huo cannot give a convincing answer, it will probably discourage all employees.

Xu Liang also stood beside Ma Bo, giving him invisible support.

These words were naturally what was in his heart, but they came from Ma Bo's mouth. Since someone was doing it for him, he just had to express his attitude.

"Boss Huo, I have worked hard for the company for so many years. Even if I have made no contributions, I have worked hard. Even if I made a mistake, can't you just give me a break and let me go for this?"

Moral kidnapping! This is pure moral kidnapping!

Xing Zhao and Wei Zhou couldn't stand it anymore and were about to retort, but were stopped by Liu Huanyi's eyes.

She wanted to see Huo Yuli's attitude.

If Huo Yuli sided with his employees, there would be no need to continue this job. They would not hesitate even if it meant paying liquidated damages. They would never work with someone who couldn't make sense.

After Ma Bo finished his accusation, he played the victim and threw a series of punches. Liu Huanyi quietly hugged his chest and watched his performance.

Before he could finish his long speech, he was rudely interrupted by Huo Yuli.

"Ma Bo, how much salary did the company pay you last month?"

Ma Bo was stunned. "Boss Huo, didn't you forbid us to discuss salary in the company?"

The salaries of Huo’s employees are all secret. The company strictly prohibits employees from inquiring about their salaries privately, otherwise they will be fired.

"So are you dissatisfied with last month's salary?"

"No, no!"

Ma Bo quickly shook his head. Huo's salary was the best among similar companies, so even though many people worked overtime, no one planned to resign.

The reason is simple: Huo gave too much.

Ma Bo has never thought about resigning. As long as the Huo family does not fire him, he can work until he is eighty years old.
