Upon hearing Xia Ruo's words, the manager immediately burst into laughter: "Young Master Xia is right, right, haha, it's very satisfying to see some people make a fool of themselves."
As he spoke, he turned to Sister Wu and said, "Sister Wu, you've been working in this shop for a while now, so you should just get out. These two have been humiliated, you don't need to suffer along with them."
Sister Wu, panting heavily, looked at the manager.
Just like the manager said, she has been working here for several years.
Even if we're not colleagues, we're still acquaintances, right?
How could this manager have the nerve to say such a thing?
Doesn't his heart ache?
Ms. Wu, panting heavily, said, "Manager, why are you humiliating me like this? We've known each other for five years, haven't we?"
The manager chuckled and said, "Oh, five years? Look at you, you're such a show-off. You think you can treat me as a friend after knowing me for five years? You don't even know who you are. Do you even have the right to say that?"
Sister Wu's heart skipped a beat again.
How could he say such awful things?
The manager never treated these employees as his own people.
Even after returning home each day, he would talk to his wife in a way that mocked and humiliated Sister Wu and her colleagues, and he would imitate their way of speaking to amuse his son.
Now that such a young master has appeared by his side, the manager naturally has to curry favor with him. What do these subordinate employees matter?
Sister Wu opened her mouth, but then said nothing more.
Since Lu Zheng and the other man said they could help her save face, she might as well take a look.
"What's wrong? My dear Sister Wu, can't you speak? Have you become mute?"
The manager is still pushing output at an accelerated pace.
After all, he had to use all his skills to please this young master.
Xia Ruoke had been suppressed by Lu Zheng and the others the whole time, and she felt very uncomfortable.
But now, someone has given him a thrill, and he's in a great mood.
So he couldn't help but say, "Lu Zheng, weren't you just trying to stand up for this old lady? Keep talking, let us see what you're capable of doing to resolve her issues?"
Xu Yue also teased, "Hehe, maybe he's just putting on an act again. But then again, it's normal for some people to like showing off. It's understandable, it's understandable, hahaha!"
Looking at the three of them like this, Lu Zheng sighed: "I let you pretend for a while, and you're already acting all smug. Actually, I don't need to use any special methods, Xia Ruo, you know that yourself."
Xia Ruo was arrogant because he thought he was capable and that it would be great to make Lu Zheng look bad with just one phone call.
But Lu Zheng's words now really reminded him that he seemed to have forgotten that he had been kicked out of the Xia family.
The reason he can still act arrogantly is simply because outsiders don't know his current situation.
If anyone found out, he wouldn't have the chance to show off like that.
He could make things difficult for Lu Zheng and upset him, but if he really wanted to completely humiliate Lu Zheng and utterly crush him, he wouldn't be as effective as Zhou Jiaxing.
After Lu Zheng said that, his eyelids twitched violently.
Lu Zheng continued, "And you, manager, you thought that by helping him you were helping yourself and giving yourself a chance to be promoted, but you made Sister Wu lose her job. So let me just tell you, I can make you lose your job in the same way."
"Forehead???"
The manager was stunned for a moment, but then he suddenly burst into laughter: "Showing off, haha, you think you can compare to Young Master Xia?"
"Young Master Xia is the son of the chairman of the Xia Group. Oh, right, perhaps someone of your intelligence wouldn't know about the Xia Group? Would you like me to introduce it to you?"
The manager started bragging for Xia Ruo.
Xia Ruo and Xu Yue realized after Lu Zheng's reminder that they had indeed gone a bit too far.
This won't do them any good.
If things escalate further, they'll both be even more embarrassed.
But if they were to stop the manager now, they would be slapping themselves in the face, so they had to hold back for now.
The manager, unaware that he was about to become a clown, was still arrogantly gesturing and dancing around.
Lu Zheng sighed softly, "You really won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Fine, then I'll show you."
He picked up his phone and then called Xia Linyu.
"Miss Xia, I need your help."
"Tsk tsk, Miss Xia?" The manager laughed arrogantly. "You know Miss Xia? So what if you do? In the future, the successor of the Xia Group will be Young Master Xia Ruo, not a woman!"
Mingxiang was speechless: "What about women? Are women in your way? Isn't your mother a woman? Why do you look down on women so much? You might as well tell your mother to let men raise the children."
The manager definitely looks down on women.
In his eyes, women were merely tools for venting desires and procreation.
However, just as Mingxiang said, his mother was also a woman.
By insulting women, he is actually humiliating himself.
Naturally, his expression changed instantly at that moment.
"You're talking nonsense, what are you saying?"
Xia Linyu heard everything the manager said when he was yelling at her.
But she still asked Lu Zheng, "Mr. Lu, what's going on?"
“You know about our house purchase. Your brother, Xia Ruo, impersonated the Xia family heir and called the sales agent here, asking them to deal with us.”
Lu Zheng briefly explained the situation, and Xia Linyu was stunned.
She was suddenly a little confused.
Is her younger brother Xia Ruo an idiot?
If Xia Linyu weren't in this city, Xia Ruo could easily find ways to deal with Lu Zheng. After all, no one could prove it, and no one knew. As long as he could prove he was the son of the CEO, everything would be easy to handle.
But the problem is, Xia Linyu is there too!
Even if Xia Ruo believes that Xia Linyu will be cautious and discreet during the two years she has to prepare for her rise to power and will not directly reveal her identity, he should still consider what kind of decisions he would make in special circumstances.
Is Xia Ruo brainless?
Unconsciously, Xia Linyu felt a growing sense of disappointment in her younger brother.
Although her brother was deliberately going against her, he was still her own brother. How could she, as his older sister, not be disappointed that he didn't even have this much brainpower?
Of course, despite her thoughts, she still said to Lu Zheng on the phone, "Mr. Lu, I know what to do."
