Zhou Yatong was sobbing, tears streaming down her face, making people want to pity her.
However, the manager is not stupid.
It's fine to protect them normally, but which of those two, father and daughter, is someone to be trifled with?
"Manager, please help me. My dad will be so grateful," Zhou Yatong pleaded.
Before the manager could respond, Xia Anyan and her group arrived.
Zhou Yatong's face turned pale instantly when she heard the commotion outside.
She grabbed the manager who was about to leave: "Manager, I beg you, please help me, just this once, okay?"
"If you don't help me, I..."
The manager, with a cold face, simply shook off her hand.
Before Zhou Yatong could say anything more, the manager shot her a look: "Why didn't you think about the consequences before you did this?"
"Don't tell me you didn't send someone to investigate them. Staying in a guesthouse, being able to come here, and speaking so arrogantly—these people can't be simple characters. Only an idiot like you would think they're easy to bully."
The manager's words were truly serious, and Zhou Yatong immediately collapsed to the ground.
She had already felt despair.
The manager ignored her, snorted coldly, and walked out.
As soon as I reached the doorway, I saw three men approaching menacingly.
He had only met Xia Anyan and Lao Zhang; as for Gu's mother, he had never met her.
Needless to say, the manager had already identified the person as such.
After meeting the three people, the manager walked up to Xia Anyan and said, "Comrade, this isn't the first time we've met. I already know what happened today. Why don't we go to the office inside to talk?"
Guests are coming soon, and he doesn't want to make a big deal out of this.
Xia Anyan was willing to give him a chance.
Nodding, he said, "Okay, since the manager has already said so, let's go inside and talk."
"However, I hope that the comrade who confronted me this morning can also come over. It doesn't matter if she leaves, but now that I've come here, I have to have a good talk with her."
The manager glanced around his office, and Xia Anyan knew what was going on.
When they went in, they indeed saw Zhou Yatong squatting on the ground wiping away tears.
Xia Anyan glanced at her, said nothing, and sat down on the chair next to her.
As for Old Zhang and Gu's mother, they wouldn't bother with her at all.
Zhou Yatong felt ignored.
She was very angry, but she didn't dare to challenge Xia Anyan.
The atmosphere cooled down immediately.
"What's wrong? Wasn't this comrade quite talkative this morning? Why is he so quiet now? And he's even crying and sobbing. Anyone who didn't know better would think we did something to him."
Mother Gu snorted coldly, showing absolutely no respect.
Zhou Yatong's face was deathly pale, her chest heaving, she was furious.
She couldn't bring herself to apologize to these people.
But if we don't apologize, this matter...
"Zhou Yatong, how many times do I have to say it? Did all the things I just said go into a dog's ears? If you don't apologize to Comrade today, then you can resign from Friendship Store and leave."
“Our Friendship Store doesn’t need someone like you. If we lose Zhou Yatong, we’ll have Wang Yatong and Sun Yatong. Where you’ll be assigned then is beyond my control.”
Even if the manager dislikes Zhou Yatong, he still has to say what he thinks.
On the one hand, he didn't want to offend the people behind Zhou Yatong, and on the other hand, he wanted Xia Anyan to know his attitude.
He didn't intend to protect anyone; if Zhou Yatong did something wrong, then she had to admit it.
Zhou Yatong was stunned by the manager's yelling, her lips trembling, looking like she was about to cry, and she looked extremely aggrieved.
At this point, the manager's face darkened even more.
Just now, Zhou Yatong was crying and begging him to save her. Now that he has given her a way out, why won't she take it? Does she want to die on it?
"Zhou Yatong, I'll say it one last time, apologize to that comrade!"
Zhou Yatong trembled, her mouth opening and closing several times, but finally she lowered her proud head: "Yes..."
"Ya Tong".
Just as Zhou Yatong was about to say "I'm sorry," a man's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
Zhou Yatong's eyes lit up, and she ran outside.
The manager's expression also turned ugly.
One problem hasn't been solved yet, and now another one has arisen.
He knew that the man outside was Zhou Yatong's boyfriend, and that he was said to be an officer in a state-owned factory.
These two are about to get engaged, and this person's arrival now is clearly to protect Zhou Yatong.
This is going to escalate.
The manager went out with a dark face, but as soon as he reached the door, his face changed to a smile.
"It's Director Qian. What brings you here today?"
As he spoke, he gave Zhou Yatong a wink.
But Zhou Yatong is just a brainless girl, and she's still crying in Qian Youren's arms.
Qian Youren held her in his arms, his voice so gentle it was almost dripping with tenderness.
"Ya Tong, don't cry, I'm here now."
"Tell me quickly, who bullied you? Don't worry, I will definitely protect you and will never let anyone bully you." Qian Youren didn't even look at the manager.
In his opinion, this manager was just a little bit capable; if they really went head-to-head, it was hard to say who would be more powerful.
Therefore, he didn't take these people seriously.
"Youren, you must stand up for me! This matter has nothing to do with me."
Zhou Yatong cried and blamed everything on other people.
She didn't intentionally slander Xia Anyan, but she also didn't try to create a very positive image for her.
Zhou Yatong wasn't sure what Xia Anyan's true identity was, so she didn't want Qian Youren to make a move. However, she didn't want to let go of anyone, including the manager who was kicking someone when they were down, or those who were just watching the show.
Upon hearing Zhou Yatong's words, the faces of the sales clerks, including the manager, turned green.
"Zhou Yatong, what do you mean? We did say some harsh things back then, and they criticized us, so we're even."
"You were the one who went to their place this morning and caused a scene, which is why they've come all this way. Why are you saying it's our fault? Just because we're wrong doesn't mean you're right!"
These people don't tolerate Zhou Yatong at all.
They have powerful backers, so how can they let Zhou Yatong say such things to slander them?
Qian Youren's facial expression didn't change much, but his eyes conveyed a very clear message.
He was angry.
Zhou Yatong was very smug, snorted coldly, and looked at those people.
