Chapter 72: Estrangement
Huo Xilin shook his head: "No, you really should take care of the company's affairs. Not only should you take care of it, but you should also take good care of it."
Huo Xilin's words confused Mrs. Huo: "What do you mean?"
"When you were in charge of the company, how did you deal with employees who did not comply with company rules and regulations?" Huo Xilin asked.
"The punishment can be a fine or a warning, or a demotion. If the offender refuses to change after repeated warnings, he will be fired directly!" Old Madam Huo has always been resolute and decisive. It is under her strict management that the Huo Group has prospered.
Therefore, Mrs. Huo has always been a very principled person, and she attaches great importance to etiquette, rules, traditions and dogmas.
"There is a person in the company who is late for work, leaves early, and never completes the assigned work. He just throws it to his colleagues. How do you deal with him?"
"There are people like this? I haven't been to the company for a long time, and you can't control these people?" Old Madam Huo looked at her son in confusion. According to her understanding of Huo Xilin, such a situation should not occur, unless that person really has a special identity, forcing him to endure it.
"That person is..." Old Madam Huo said halfway, as if she suddenly thought of something. She turned around abruptly and looked at Yan Xisui beside her.
Yan Xisui felt guilty and didn't dare to look directly into Madam Huo's eyes. She felt anxious at this moment.
She originally wanted to ask Old Madam Huo to support her, but unfortunately she forgot that her godmother was a principled person. If she knew about her situation at work, she would definitely not stand on her side.
So she hurriedly said, "Godmother, forget it. My problems are all small matters. In the future, I will give in to Special Assistant Xu in the company and will never argue with her to embarrass Brother Lin. This matter is over. Let's go."
After saying that, she wanted to pull Madam Huo away.
However, Mrs. Huo did not move at all. She looked very unhappy and said to Huo Xilin, "You can handle the company's affairs from now on. I am indeed retired and should not interfere anymore."
After that, she turned and left, and said to Xu Qingsui as she left: "Since my son trusts you and gives you such an important and special position, then cherish it."
After saying that, she winked at Yan Xisui and left.
Yan Xisui followed Madam Huo out reluctantly.
Sitting in the car, Mrs. Huo looked solemn. Yan Xisui sat beside her nervously, lowering her head and not daring to breathe.
"Do you need to explain anything to me?" Old Madam Huo asked Yan Xisui, trying to keep her tone calm.
"Godmother, I was sick before. You know I'm in poor health, so I'm often late and leave early. But I did all the work that Brother Lin assigned to me personally and completed it well." Yan Xisui defended herself.
Mrs. Huo's expression became even uglier.
She might not know enough about what kind of person Yan Xisui was, but she definitely knew her son.
Huo Xilin never speaks of things without any basis, and Yan Xisui must have gone too far to make him angry and punish her without even giving face to her as a mother.
Mrs. Huo said coldly: "I didn't ask you in the office just now, nor did I let Huo Xilin continue talking, just for your sake. If you continue to be stubborn, then I can't help you."
Yan Xisui became anxious instantly. She had lost confidence in winning Huo Xilin back. If she lost the support of Mrs. Huo, there might really be no hope.
Now she is like a person who has fallen into the water and is about to drown, and Old Madam Huo is her only lifeline.
She grabbed Madam Huo's arm and cried, "Godmother, I was wrong. I promise to work hard and abide by the company's regulations in the future. You must help me. I don't know what tricks Xu Qingsui used to get the position of the president's special assistant. The first person she picked on after taking office was me. I admit that I was wrong first, but she was just using me to slap you in the face. She was openly declaring war on you!"
Yan Xisui's brain was spinning rapidly, and she transferred all the conflicts to Madam Huo: "It must be because of what you said to her the last time you came to pick me up from the hospital that she is resentful. She must want to alienate the mother-son relationship between you and Brother Lin."
After hearing what Yan Xisui said, Mrs. Huo couldn't help but think about Xu Qingsui's series of actions.
As soon as he was discharged from the hospital and returned to work in the company, he became the president's special assistant, and then used Yan Xisui as an example to improve the company's working atmosphere.
Xu Qingsui clearly knew that Yan Xisui was the person she arranged to work in the company, but he still did this. Isn't there an element of prejudice against her in this?
Such a scheming, unscrupulous, vindictive and narrow-minded woman may really not be suitable to stay with her son any longer.
"Godmother, I must not be fired. I can be your eyes and ears and see Xu Qingsui's every move. If I leave, who in the entire company can stand up to her? After a while, it will be hard to say whether the company will be named Huo or Xu Ke."
"Shut up!" Mrs. Huo was obviously angry.
Madam Huo's husband passed away early. She still remembered that when she first took over the Huo Group, it was facing internal and external troubles. She sent her only son away and made up her mind to fight to the death. It took her a lot of effort to bring the Huo Group back on track. Therefore, she would never allow anyone to covet the Huo Group again.
Yan Xisui was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe. Although Madam Huo was old, her majesty was still as great as before.
"You work hard in the company. If you find Xu Qingsui doing anything that is detrimental to the company, tell me immediately." Mrs. Huo was silent for a while and said to Yan Xisui.
Yan Xisui was secretly delighted, it seemed that Old Madam Huo had taken her words to heart.
Fortunately, I know Madam Huo. Her weakness is Huo Xilin and the Huo Group. Anyone who dares to take advantage of Huo Xilin and the Huo Group will be her enemy!
"Don't worry, godmother. I am half a member of the Huo family. I will never allow anyone to harm Brother Lin and the Huo family!" Yan Xisui expressed her determination.
Madam Huo nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, it's time for me to leave too. You should go back to work first. Remember, you represent my reputation and cannot be outdone by Xu Qingsui. When the time is right, I will personally promote you to be the second special assistant to the president."
Yan Xisui's eyes lit up. She didn't expect such a good thing could happen.
She nodded quickly: "Don't worry, godmother, I will never let you down."
After Madam Huo's car left, Yan Xisui revealed a sinister smile. Just wait, everything she had lost now would soon be back in her hands.
