Chapter 176 Hitting a wall
Jiang Younian's mouth twitched slightly, but he had to admit that Duanrao's concerns were correct.
The store manager Zheng was looking at Miss Zhang with eyes that seemed to want to eat her. If he hadn't taken them into consideration, he would have been unable to restrain himself and started a fight.
Although Assistant Fang said this to Zhang Kexin, he glanced at Du Anrao out of the corner of his eye. It was obvious that compared to Zhang Kexin, he cared more about Du Anrao's reaction.
Duan Rao gave him a cold look, "Why are you looking at me? Miss Zhang has suffered such a great injustice today, so she may not be willing to continue to stay in your company as the store manager."
"Yes, yes, yes..." Special Assistant Fang also smiled, then turned to look at Zhang Kexin and said solemnly, "The general manager has read the financial statements of the branch store for the past six months and found that Miss Zhang has been the sales champion every month, especially in the past three months. Nearly half of the orders in the store were signed by Miss Zhang, and many customers also specifically asked Miss Zhang to be their contact specialist. Even if it weren't for what happened today, you deserve the title of store manager."
What Assistant Fang said is indeed true, Zhang Kexin's work ability is beyond doubt.
Today, she defended Duan Rao despite the pressure from her boss, although it was mainly because she had carefully read the company's announcement before and guessed Duan Rao's identity.
But before Du Anrao took out the discount card and revealed his identity, she did not treat Du Anrao and his companions differently because of their belittlement and misleading remarks. Instead, she always treated them with courtesy.
For this reason alone, she deserves the title of store manager.
After saying this, Assistant Fang glanced at the furious man not far away and sneered, "Please rest assured, Miss Zhang. Our company values and respects talents like you. As long as you can stay and serve as the store manager of the branch, things like today will never happen again."
Being able to rise to the position of special assistant to the general manager at such a young age without any background and becoming the right-hand man and confidant of the company's young master, this special assistant Fang is not an incompetent and angry fool like some others.
After looking at the financial statements and the store surveillance, Manager Zheng's little thoughts were exposed. He indeed did not pay attention to the company's announcement, nor did he know Duanrao's identity, but what really made him angry was Zhang Kexin's repeated rebuttals.
He had always been very secretive about this capable subordinate and was very wary of him. What Zhang Kexin did today had touched his sensitive spot, making him furious. He wanted to use this incident to make an example of someone and kick this potential threat that might affect his position out of the store.
Unfortunately, his kick hit a wall.
Zhang Kexin was still hesitating when the two young girls who had served Duan Rao and Mr. Sun came up to her excitedly and whispered, "Sister Kexin, please stay."
"Yes, you can stay. There are only a few of us in our store, and we know each other well. What happened today will definitely not happen again."
Except for Zhang Kexin, most of the sales staff in the store are juniors who have joined the company within the past year. Even if Zhang Kexin does not stay, none of them can take over the position of store manager.
Instead of waiting for the head office to parachute in another store manager who doesn't know what's good for them, it would be better to let Zhang Kexin, the senior who takes good care of them on a daily basis, take this step. Their lives will be much better then.
Zhang Kexin met the expectant eyes of everyone in the store, let out a long breath, smiled faintly and nodded: "Thank you for the company's appreciation, I will continue to work hard."
Assistant Fang also breathed a sigh of relief: "Then it's settled. I'll have the HR department prepare the letter of authorization and send it directly to your store."
"Thank you for your help."
In this way, everyone is happy, but...
Du Anrao glanced at Manager Zheng and others who were still standing not far away, raised his lips slightly, and said meaningfully: "Since you don't want to leave, then come over and apologize again."
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on a few people again.
"What?"
"I'm not the only one who got beaten today." The hatred on both sides is already full, so this one thing won't make a difference.
Zhang Kexin suddenly turned her head and looked at Duanrao, her eyes flashing slightly.
Being slapped in public was undoubtedly a humiliating and sad thing. It would be a lie to say that she didn't care at all. However, she also knew that she had no power and could not seek justice for herself, so she had to endure it for the time being.
She never expected that this distinguished guest would take the initiative to do this for her.
Uncle Wang was the first to react. Seeing Manager Zheng standing there in a daze without saying a word, he was so angry that he kicked him on the leg.
"Don't apologize yet!"
Manager Zheng's forehead was bulging with veins, but in the end, the situation was stronger than he was, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm sorry."
Zhang Kexin stared at him indifferently without any response.
Just then, there was another commotion outside the store.
"Police, the police are here."
Assistant Fang's expression also changed: "Police? Who called the police?"
Everyone in the store looked at each other, it was obviously none of their business.
Mrs. Zheng rolled her eyes and suddenly burst into tears: "This is so unfair. Just because she is powerful, you want to get rid of my husband and sue him after he beat her up. How can this be justified? You are trying to force us to death!"
Manager Zheng's expression was subtle for a moment, but then his eyes narrowed and there was a hint of ruthlessness in them.
It is said that there are two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed. Although Mrs. Zheng is illiterate about the law, she is well aware of the chaos in today's society where "whoever makes a fuss is right."
He has been fired anyway, and the company is still holding him accountable and forcing him to pay compensation. Just like his wife said, he has been forced into a desperate situation, so why should he let others have an easy life?
It was indeed he who started the dispute in the store, but he did not hit Du Anrao at first, but Du Anrao hit him. If this matter is really brought up, there will be a lot of arguments!
After realizing this, Zheng Zhe decisively winked at Mr. Sun and the other two.
The two were stunned for a moment, but reacted quickly, especially Mr. Sun's little lover, whose tears came without warning.
"Who made her so powerful and influential? How can ordinary people like us twist our arms against the thighs? Today, let alone if she beats people, even if she kills people and sets fires, no one can do anything to her. The heaven is blind!"
Onlookers: “…” No, you guys were just calling us untouchables, but now you’re just ordinary people again. Are you chameleons?
Although he knew that he was in the right, as a young college student who had never seen the world, Jiang Younian couldn't help but tense up when he heard the word "police". When he heard Mrs. Zheng and others distorting right and wrong, he was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up and beat them, but he heard the people around him screaming.
[Oh~]
Jiang Younian: “???”
"Cousin."
Jiang Younian: “!!!”
