Chapter 652 A Fury That Caused a Crown to Rage
Qin He's eyes turned cold, and he took a step closer.
The powerful aura startled the receptionist, who immediately snapped back to reality and retreated hastily, stammering, "You..."
Just then, a cold, stern voice came from the doorway: "He's my man, I'm your boss, who does he think he is?"
With just one sentence, Qin He's chill dissipated, and he looked over with delight: "Wen Xi? You're back?"
"Fool, if I hadn't come back, you would have been bullied to death!" Wen Xi pushed open the door and came in, taking Qin He's arm as they walked to the front desk. "How dare you gossip about me like that again?"
"I...I was wrong, I'm sorry, Ms. Wen. We were just joking, we didn't really mean to say anything bad about you." The receptionist had always thought that Wen Xi was just a lively and easy-going female boss of the same age. Unlike Su Youling's authoritative demeanor, she was very gentle and easy to get along with everyone in the company.
She's less of a boss and more of a caring older sister.
I never expected that my dear friend would be so fierce when she got angry, especially for the sake of her boyfriend.
"I'm your boss. If you don't dare to speak up, then what about my boyfriend?" Wen Xi looked up at the surveillance camera above her head. "Are you going to tell me yourself, or should I go and pull up the surveillance footage and publicly humiliate him?"
Seeing her so aggressive, the receptionist couldn't help but retort, "Mr. Wen, our studio staff were just joking. It's your boyfriend who's making a big deal out of it, picking on a young girl and saying such hurtful things..."
"You're fired." Wen Xi called everyone over domineeringly and stared at the incredulous receptionist. "Although our studio is newly opened, it still needs to maintain a certain level of sophistication. Since you took over as receptionist, you've made countless mistakes, big and small. If I hadn't thought you were too young and needed more experience, you would have been fired long ago."
The receptionist retorted, "You're clearly settling a personal score."
“Yes, I reported it openly and honestly, not only because you spoke ill of my boyfriend, but also because you neglected your duties…” Wen Xi tapped the table, “You let Luo Yi in today, didn’t you? And you brought him to my office, didn’t you? The studio has clear rules that for clients without appointments, the front desk must register and inquire, and then ask the supervisor if they can be seen, instead of just seeing a handsome guy and forgetting that you are still at work, bringing people into the boss’s office without permission.”
"But……"
"That's only one thing," Wen Xi interrupted her sharply. "Furthermore, you neglected your duties during work hours, gossiping outside your boss's door, and then maliciously spread rumors and slanders, trying to drive a wedge between your boss and his girlfriend. You're just being nosy. If you're so full of yourself, there's no need for our studio to pay you to support us."
She opened the door and said coldly, "Go somewhere cool and stay there."
The receptionist angrily retorted, "Do you believe I'll sue you for blurring the lines between public and private matters and for maliciously dismissing an employee? Is it really worth it for a man? No wonder everyone says you're love-struck and have no morals whatsoever when it comes to men."
"What did you say?" Wen Xi's face darkened, and she stepped forward to argue, but Qin He grabbed her hand. "Alright, people like that are full of darkness, and they see everything as black. Talking to her is a waste of time, and it's not worth getting angry over."
He calmed Wen Xi down, looked down at the disgruntled receptionist, and suddenly smiled slightly: "Want to know just how capable a little assistant like me is?"
The receptionist was stunned: "You..."

"Once you walk out of this studio, I guarantee you'll never find a decent job in any company or organization in City A," Qin He said domineeringly. "If you don't believe me, go ahead and try. Perhaps you'd be interested in cleaning public restrooms, since your breath stinks more than a public restroom, and you've got experience cleaning them every day, right?"
"You!" The receptionist was furious. Since she was leaving anyway, she decided to throw caution to the wind and raised her hand to hit him. "What kind of men are you, bullying a woman like this!"
Snap!
Wen Xi swiftly pulled Qin He back and slapped the receptionist across the face. "Being young is not an excuse for your wild and shameless behavior, nor is it a tool for you to discriminate against people. Regardless of gender, you've all received nine years of compulsory education. Don't you understand the basic principles of being a decent human being?"
The receptionist covered her face, almost crying with anger.
She was just a girl from a small town who finally got into a big city, but her grades weren't outstanding and her abilities weren't exceptional. After graduation, she was overwhelmed by the job-hunting crowd and could only rely on her youth and quick wit to apply for administrative jobs.
Even so, she didn't graduate from a prestigious university, came from a poor family, and lacked background and experience, so even slightly better companies wouldn't hire her.
That's why she set her sights on newly established companies and small studios. After finally getting a job, she was fired for something as trivial as gossip, which made her even angrier and more regretful.
"I'm going to sue you! Just you wait, so what if you're rich and powerful? One day, I'll be even more powerful than you." The receptionist stomped her feet angrily, and before leaving, she made a threat, "A small, unfair studio like yours will go out of business sooner or later."
After saying that, she slammed the door and left.
Wen Xi immediately had the security guards cancel her access card, blacklisting her and banning her from ever entering or leaving this area again... After doing all this, she was still not satisfied and was about to make an example of the remaining people to teach them a lesson: "You..."
Everyone tensed up and instinctively took a step back.
Oh no, the boss is going to explode.
This debt still needs to be settled with everyone.
"You've all had a long day, how about I treat you all to a meal?" Qin He's tone softened, his previous sternness giving way. "Wenxi, we haven't treated your colleagues to a proper meal since we got together. I've come uninvited today, which has disturbed everyone's work, so this treat is my way of apologizing."
Wenxi has always been a free spirit who is clear about right and wrong. She still has a bellyful of resentment to vent, and now she wants her to treat everyone to a meal. It's like provoking a tyrant.
In the past, she would never have agreed.
Now, looking up into Qin He's gentle and peaceful eyes, she was instantly soothed. The anger and irritability in her heart gradually dissipated, and her rationality returned: "Everyone, pack up, let's go out for dinner after get off work. We can also celebrate my boyfriend's promotion to vice president of Li's Group."
Everyone was shocked: "Really? That's amazing!"
"Ms. Wen has married into a wealthy family, hasn't she? Not everyone can be the vice president of the Li Group. It's equivalent to the CEO of ten ordinary companies."
"It's just that Fangfang comes from a small town. She's young and inexperienced. Does she think that being Li Tingxi's assistant is something just anyone can do?"
"Assistants are also divided into different levels. Vice President Qin is a talent reserve for large companies. Being an assistant is a process of gilding one's resume."
