Chapter 543 What is this?
Seeing his anxious look, Qiao Xing could barely suppress her smile. She stepped forward and patted Wang Ye on the shoulder, "Alright, what are you getting so worked up about? Anyway, you don't like her, so what does it matter to her what you are to her?"
Wang Ye paused for a moment, then tilted his head to look at Qiao Xing, "What you said seems to make sense."
Qiao Xing shook her head, too lazy to talk to him anymore.
"You can calculate it yourself, I'm going back."
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, especially at noon and in the afternoon, so she doesn't want to be outside in the sun.
She returned to the new house, where the old man was enjoying the cool air in a chair. Qiao Xing didn't disturb him, but instead asked Dr. Chen about his health.
Dr. Chen said his health was better than when he was in Beijing, but he was still very weak.
Qiao Xing usually sees him as quite energetic, but he doesn't know how he really is. However, seeing that he still sits in a wheelchair every day, he knows that he is definitely not as good as he appears.
She sighed, glanced at the old man taking a nap, and went over to turn off the air conditioner.
Meanwhile, something else happened at Qiao Hong's company.
Photos of him and Xu Meimei appeared in the company group chat, not anonymously, but posted using his own account.
Qiao Hong was unaware of this at first; the group chat was always flooded with 99+ messages, and he was too lazy to check.
When he went to the company in the morning, the people there looked at him strangely, and some male colleagues even gave him a thumbs up.
Before he could even sit down in his office, Boss Qian called him over again.
He thought it was about the cooperation with S&C, and he had thought of all the reasons on the way before pushing the door open.
Mr. Qian's gaze was subtle, revealing disdain in his eyes but a hint of a smile on his face.
"Mr. Qiao, you've only just been promoted, why don't you pay attention to your image? You're trying to embarrass me."
Qiao Hong looked at President Qian with confusion, "What do you mean? President Qian, I don't quite understand."
Mr. Qian took out his iPad, tossed it on the table, and told him to look at it himself. "What's this?"
Qiao Hong's expression changed. The group chat was filled with photos of him and Xu Meimei holding hands on the street, kissing in the car, and going to a hotel together. All of these photos were posted in the group using his account.
Mr. Qian, who was standing nearby, said, "You're supposed to be a leader, yet you post everything in the group chat. After all these years of working, don't you even know this? This is a company group chat, not your gossip group chat."
"If you post these things now, what are you going to make people think of you?"
Qiao Hong hurriedly took out his phone to check his chat history. After scrolling for a long time, he finally found the message he had sent. It was sent at 11 p.m. last night, which was exactly the time he went to take a shower.
His face turned pale and then flushed, his expression shifting unpredictably. Finally, his face turned bright red, and he explained to Mr. Qian, "I didn't send this, Mr. Qian, you have to believe me!"
Mr. Qian glanced at him sideways, "It was posted from your account. If it wasn't you, did I send it to you? Go explain to everyone that your account was hacked, or do you believe me?"
Who would hack his account just to send this kind of thing to the group?
Are the people who steal accounts just bored and have nothing better to do?
Qiao Hong knew who it was, and he explained, "It must have been sent by my wife, I..."
Mr. Qian's gaze towards him grew even more disdainful. "So you know you're a married man?"
Qiao Hong was speechless. He was both angry and annoyed, and wished he could go back and fight Cao Yun right now.
He was already annoyed, and then Cao Yun did something like this.
Mr. Qian said, "You, you've been a manager for so long, and you haven't seen any results. Instead, you're causing trouble everywhere. I also heard that the woman in the photo came to the company, right? You're quite adept at abusing your power. Have you done what I asked you to do?"
Qiao Hong was sweating profusely. He said awkwardly, "It'll be soon. I called Qin Ce and he said he knows and will come to visit you at our company as soon as he gets back from his business trip."
Mr. Qian looked at him suspiciously, "When will he be back?"
"He hasn't decided yet, but he told me it will be next month at the latest."
It's only the beginning of the month, isn't there still a month until next month?
Mr. Qian's gaze toward him grew increasingly suspicious.
Qiao Hong said, "President Qian, you can trust me. I guarantee I'll bring him to the company in a month. Besides, we won't be short of a month, will we?"
After thinking for a moment, Mr. Qian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you another month."
Qiao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Qian then said, "Mr. Qiao, I hope you will stop doing these messy things. If you keep acting recklessly, I really can't protect you anymore."
Yes, yes, yes.
"You need to finalize the cooperation with S&C as soon as possible, otherwise you won't be able to gain the respect of the people. Even if I put you in this position, you won't be able to hold onto it."
"I know, I know." Qiao Hong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Even the office air conditioning couldn't cool him down; his back was completely soaked.
"Alright, you can go now."
Qiao Hong ran out of the office as if fleeing, and his colleagues on the way gave him strange looks. Qiao Hong wished he could find a hole to crawl into.
He quickly fled to his office, where Xu Meimei was already waiting for him.
She asked him, annoyed, "Why did you post our photos in the group chat? How am I supposed to face the company now?!"
She was hoping to find a better man in the company while still having options, but now Qiao Hong has cut off her escape route. She's furious.
Qiao Hong grabbed the water glass on the table and drank the water in one gulp.
He irritably untied and twisted it, saying gruffly, "I didn't send it!"
"Who is that?" Xu Meimei asked, her eyes suddenly widening. "Could it be your wife?"
Seeing that Qiao Hong was annoyed, he waved his hand like he was shooing away a fly, "Alright, you can go now."
"What should we do then..."
Qiao Hong glared at her. "I told you to get out, didn't you hear me?"
He raised his voice, startling Xu Meimei. She didn't dare say anything more and could only slink away from the office.
Qiao Hong pulled out a few tissues to wipe his sweat. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't stay at the company any longer, so he rushed home as soon as he got off work at noon.
Cao Yun was still cooking in the kitchen when he went in and, without saying a word, grabbed the vegetable basket from her hand and threw it on the ground, causing the basin to fall to the ground with a loud thud.
Cao Yun turned his head and saw his face full of anger, yet he remained completely calm. "What's wrong with you?"
Qiao Hong put his hands on his hips, laughing angrily, "I'm crazy? I think you're the one who's crazy! What did you send on my phone? Who gave you permission to send that!"
In the past, Qiao Hong would never have dared to speak to her like that.
Things are different now. He has more confidence than Cao Yun. In addition, he was already anxious and upset during this period. What happened in the company made him even more irritable.
Seeing him fly into a rage, Cao Yun sneered, "You dare to do it, but you don't dare let anyone know? So what if I took your phone and posted it? I'm going to let everyone in your company know what kind of person you are. Qiao Hong, do you even deserve to be a boss? Even the neighborhood watchdog is more loyal than you."
