Facing Qu Jingyun's blunt threats, Shao Jingque remained calm, even with a hint of a smile on his face:
"Oh, really? I'm just wondering if Deputy Captain Qu plans to fire an employee who received excellent annual performance reviews. Will the higher-ups approve?"
Qu Jingyun was so angry that his teeth itched. His eyes swept across Shao Jingque's face like a sharp knife. He only felt that her smile was dazzling:
"Hmph! Don't forget that you were the first to leave your post for such a long time without reason. According to the attendance system of the art troupe, I have every reason to expel you. No one can help you!"
Wu Shuang was terrified when she heard this, and couldn't help but hold Shao Jingque's hand tightly.
This is also the issue she has always been most worried about. Shao Jingque has been away for too long this time, which is unacceptable no matter how you look at it.
Shao Jingque was too lazy to waste time talking to her. Qu Jingyun could only make a fuss about her leaving her job, not knowing that she had already thought of a solution on the way back.
"I'm sorry, but I happen to understand a bit about the system. As far as I know, a deputy position doesn't seem to have that much power. If you want to fire me, please report it to your superiors according to the system first!"
"Let me think about it. Even if Liang Tuan approves it, it still has to be reported to the Provincial Art Troupe. The Provincial Art Troupe will have to review it through various levels, and then pass it back...it will take at least a month, right?"
"Alright, since you can't do anything to me in the past month or so, don't bother me anymore. Let's just turn a blind eye to each other!"
The disdainful tone made Qu Jingyun's face flush red, and the finger pointing at Shao Jingque was trembling slightly:
"Alright! Just wait for me! I'll have Captain Liang expel you right away. Let's see how long you can stay so arrogant!"
After she said that, she angrily threw her hands and turned to leave.
But because she was too excited and turned too quickly, her foot in high heels twisted and she almost fell down. Fortunately, Wu Shuang, who was standing next to her, was quick to help her.
Wu Shuang, who was standing by in amazement, turned pale with fear when she heard Shao Jingque actually speaking to Qu Jingyun like this.
Sister Jingque has cut off all her retreat routes!
Even if she is lucky enough not to be expelled from the group this time, how can she carry out her work in the group in the future? She will definitely be made to suffer by Deputy Group Leader Qu!
Wu Shuang was most afraid of talking to leaders in her life, but at this moment she was too worried about Shao Jingque's future. Her lips trembled as she spoke anxiously:
"Qu, Deputy Captain Qu, please don't be angry... Um... Don't bother with Xiao Shao, she's young and can't speak..."
"Let go!"
Qu Jingyun stood up straight and ruthlessly pushed away Wu Shuang who was holding her arm. She glared at Shao Jingque fiercely and strode towards the office building without looking back.
Wu Shuang looked at Qu Jingyun's back, his head smoking with anger, and felt uneasy. He said to Shao Jingque anxiously:
"Sister Jingque, why did you get into an argument with Deputy Captain Qu? She was rude, but we just had to be patient. Now she must have been terribly offended. What should we do?"
"Sister Wu Shuang, you just helped her out of kindness. Did she say thank you?"
Shao Jingque smiled disapprovingly:
"She's a narrow-minded, vindictive person. If I put up with her, won't she turn against me? No, she'll just think I'm afraid of her and will become even more unscrupulous in causing trouble for me. Instead of that, it's better for us to break up. At least we can have a few days of peace."
Wu Shuang thought about it with a sad face and felt that what Shao Jingque said made sense.
Based on her understanding of Qu Jingyun over the years, this Deputy Director Qu is indeed a petty person. Any employee who offends her, whether intentionally or unintentionally, will eventually be kicked out of the art troupe by her, without exception.
When you think about it this way, the result is the same whether you endure it or not.
"What if she really reports you to her superiors and wants to fire you?"
Shao Jingque calmly walked out holding Wu Shuang's arm. Not to mention that she felt Qu Jingyun didn't have the ability to fire her, even if she was really fired from the art troupe in the end, it was just a job, no big deal.
But she knew that this concept would definitely be incomprehensible to Wu Shuang in the 1970s.
For Wu Shuang, losing her job at this time was like the sky falling.
Therefore, Shao Jingque changed the statement to one that she could more easily accept:
"They're reluctant to fire me. Have you forgotten? I still owe the art troupe money for a camera. If they really fire me, who's going to pay me back?"
Wu Shuang's eyes lit up, and she thought that this seemed to be the case. Since she was relying on Shao Jingque to pay back the money, the troupe should not fire her. If she was fired and had no income, how could she pay back the money?
But after Shao Jingque's reminder, she thought of the huge amount of money she owed, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad:
"I was also shocked at the time, but later I realized that it was Lin Qiao who broke the camera, so she should pay for it! And Qiao Yulan, who was behind her, should also pay!"
When Lin Qiao confessed that the person who instructed her was Qiao Yulan, Shao Jingque became suspicious and felt that this matter might be related to Qu Jingyun.
It's just that Lin Qiao confessed quickly and there were all the witnesses and evidence, while Qiao Yulan fled for fear of being punished and has never been caught, so she couldn't confirm this guess.
Now her quarrel with Qu Jingyun was nothing but a trivial quarrel and could not pose any real threat to Qu Jingyun.
But if we can find Qiao Yulan and confirm from her that Qu Jingyun is the mastermind behind the poisoning, then Qu Jingyun would be committing a crime, and it would not just be a matter of being fired, but he would have to go to jail!
Unfortunately, there was no Skynet in this era, nor were there second-generation ID cards, and it was relatively easy to forge ID cards. If Qiao Yulan had found a remote place to hide, it would probably be difficult to find her.
