Dou Yi returned to his rented room from the restaurant and became increasingly angry.
She really couldn't swallow this insult!
She sat on the stool for a while, then picked up her keys and left with a sullen face.
I walked to the phone booth and made a call.
...
the next day.
Feng Caixia returned to the restaurant to pack her things for her office. She was stunned when she saw the scene inside as soon as she entered.
In the restaurant's main hall, staff and chefs stood in a row.
Standing in front of them, besides Dou Yi, was a middle-aged man with a large belly.
She recognized the man; he was Minister Lin, a leader at headquarters who was in charge of managing and allocating managers.
When her gaze shifted to Dou Yi and she saw the undisguised smugness on her face, Feng Caixia suddenly guessed what would happen next.
She walked in with a smile, "Oh, what brings Minister Lin here?"
Everyone turned around when they heard the sound.
Minister Lin's expression was somewhat complicated, and he said in a cold tone, "I'm here to handle some work."
Since Feng Caixia's new recipes became popular with customers and the restaurant's sales increased, Minister Lin has been very enthusiastic every time he calls.
The restaurant staff were a little surprised by the lukewarm reception today, and then they couldn't help but worry about Feng Caixia.
"It just so happens that Manager Feng is here too. Minister Lin has something to say that concerns you," Dou Yi said with a smile.
But that smile just looks sarcastic no matter how you look at it.
Feng Caixia didn't seem to care at all. She nodded, then sat down to the side and said, "Let me guess, Minister Lin is here to fire me, right?"
The restaurant staff were stunned by these words!
Minister Lin was also a little surprised, not expecting that she could guess it.
He didn't beat around the bush and admitted, "Given your limited work ability, headquarters has unanimously decided to dismiss you. I'm sorry, Ms. Feng."
Team Leader Liao retorted angrily, "You're talking nonsense! Our restaurant has been number one in sales for a month and a half, leaving other branches several thousand yuan behind. How is Manager Feng's ability limited? I think you fired Manager Feng because of this new idiot! Fine, whoever wants to do this job can do it, I'm quitting!"
Team Leader Liao took off his apron and slammed it on the table with a "smack," then walked over and stood next to Feng Caixia.
Upon seeing this, the remaining eight people took off their aprons.
"I'm quitting too."
"With a leader like that, who would dare to work for you?"
"I quit!"
...
They all stood behind Feng Caixia and said in unison, "Manager Feng, we'll all work for you from now on."
Minister Lin and Dou Yi were dumbfounded; they hadn't expected the employees to react so strongly!
Minister Lin realized what was happening, his face turning as black as charcoal. "Are you trying to rebel?"
As he spoke, he slammed his hand on the table, trying to intimidate the employees.
Dou Yi said sarcastically, "Feng Caixia has been fired. She's nothing now. What future do you have if you follow her? Don't ruin your future because of a momentary impulse. If you regret it now, I'm still willing to take you in. But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Think it over carefully!"
If so many people really leave, it will have a huge impact on her previous work. So now she has to soften her tone and wait until she recruits and trains new people before kicking out all of Feng Caixia's lackeys!
“You don’t need to worry about that.” Feng Caixia stood up, smiled and said, “Oh right, I forgot to tell you, I opened a restaurant in Guangzhou. And coincidentally, my other business partner is the girl who sold me the recipes. I want to see how Yunxiang can survive without her recipes.”
She turned her gaze to the remaining five people and said, "What I said will stand until the 29th."
After saying that, she left with nine people without looking back.
Minister Lin belatedly realized what she meant by her words and muttered, "How did she get involved with the master chef..."
Dou Yi, unaware of this, casually remarked, "It's not like there's only one person selling recipes in this world. We can always find a new one. Ultimately, it's up to headquarters to develop it; otherwise, we have to rely on others..."
"Shut up!"
Minister Lin glared at her fiercely, then quickly ran to the door, only to find that Feng Caixia and her entourage had already disappeared.
No! This matter must be reported to headquarters!
Every dish made by the culinary master that Feng Caixia knows is the best of the best. If their restaurant were to open, the company would suffer a huge loss!
That bitch Feng Caixia, how dare she betray headquarters!
He will definitely not let her get away with this!
...
After leaving the restaurant, Feng Caixia led the nine employees to a quiet park.
Facing everyone's sincere gazes, she took a deep breath and said, "I will not let you regret your choice today. Thank you for your support."
These past few days have been a break for everyone, a chance to spend quality time with family. We're heading to Guangzhou on the 29th, and we probably won't be back until Chinese New Year.
The nine employees exchanged glances and replied in unison, "Okay!"
"You all go back now. Meet at the train station at 7 a.m. on the 29th. Don't oversleep."
After they left, Feng Caixia went to the phone booth and dialed Su Yan's number.
...
at the same time.
Su Yan took the earliest bus and just got off.
As soon as she got off the train, she saw Su Yu standing at the station entrance, waving at her.
Seeing the incoming call number on the mobile phone, she quickened her pace and shoved Hu Zi into Su Yu's arms, saying, "Sister Caixia called me, we'll talk later."
As she spoke, she put the phone to her ear.
She did all the talking until finally she said, "I understand, don't worry. I'll ask Boss Zhu if he knows any landlords and find a place for the employees first. You and I will sleep in the attic for now."
There were two storage rooms in the attic of the restaurant. She and Sister Caixia could stay there when they arrived in Guangzhou, which would save them the money for a small house.
The two continued chatting about gifts before hanging up.
Su Yu asked curiously, "What did she say?"
Su Yan didn't hide anything and told him about Yunxiang's dismissal of Feng Caixia.
Just as Su Yu was about to curse Yun Xiang for being inhuman, he heard her sister exclaim happily, "This is good too. I have to go to school, Uncle Tang has to manage Baicaotang, and since Sister Caixia was fired by Yun Xiang, she can devote herself wholeheartedly to our restaurant without having to put up with other people's bad temper."
However, to be fair, Yunxiang's actions were so disgraceful that it's clear the people at headquarters aren't broad-minded, and such a restaurant won't last long.
Su Yu: "..." He forgot that his sister's thought process was a little different from others.
"By the way, have Mom and the others said anything about our house purchase?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yu's face immediately turned ashen.
