A Lei protested several times, wanting a simple honeymoon, but Qin Xiaoyu ruthlessly rejected his request. He felt wronged and complained to Zhou Xing's mother many times.
“That’s just her temper, just go along with it this once. You can have your honeymoon whenever you want, right?” Zhou Xing’s mother’s words, “You can have your honeymoon whenever you want,” touched A Lei, and he stopped making a fuss.
However, he made one condition: the honeymoon must last a full month, no matter where it takes. Qin Xiaoyu knew this was difficult to achieve, but she had no choice but to agree.
Because of this, she is extremely busy, and many tasks that cannot be done without her need to be arranged first.
After lunch break, Qin Xiaoyu saw the female workers walking into the building in twos and threes. They had just eaten lunch and were taking a short break in the courtyard before heading back to work.
Suddenly, something unusual happened in a corner of the courtyard. Hu Xing rushed out from the crowd, seemingly running away crying.
Qin Xiaoyu knew something had happened, so she hurriedly went downstairs to the model team.
The afternoon training hadn't even started yet, and the atmosphere in the model team was somber. Hu Xing's crying could be heard from the inner room.
"What's going on?" Qin Xiaoyu walked in.
"Director Qin, those women have such foul mouths! What they said was awful!" A bold girl chimed in, complaining first.
"What did she say?" Qin Xiaoyu asked hurriedly, but the girl remained silent. Qin Xiaoyu glanced at Hu Xing, understood something, and then asked everyone to leave, leaving only the girl behind.
Upon hearing this question, Qin Xiaoyu trembled with anger. These old women's mouths were truly deadly. Qin Xiaoyu had specifically mentioned in a meeting that the incident of Deputy Director Wang cornering Hu Xing in the house that day should not be publicized. But privately, these female workers had embellished the story, making it completely unbelievable.
When Hu Xing came out of the cafeteria at noon, she heard Da Cui and several female workers talking about her, commenting that she didn't look like a young woman from behind.
"Don't make false accusations! Before he could even succeed, someone came to my rescue!" Hu Xing argued, her face flushed.
"What does 'success' mean? This young lady knows quite a lot, doesn't she?" Da Cui said with a grin, which drew another burst of laughter from the female workers.
"You can't treat people like this!" Hu Xing was so embarrassed that she was about to cry.
"It's almost time, let's go." Someone remembered what Qin Xiaoyu had said at the meeting; this was a powerful figure, not to be trifled with. They pulled Da Cui away.
"That's how it is. There's a price to pay for making money. This modeling team is just for the leaders. They can just sleep with them and that's it. Why make such a fuss?" Da Cui was still being sarcastic and unwilling to give up. He kept talking as he walked.
"Shut up." Hu Xing, though young, had a big temper. She shoved her hard and ran over crying.
"Look at him, running like that, his hips are all loose!" Da Cui was pushed so hard he could barely breathe, but he could only vent his anger. The female workers burst into laughter again.
“Hu Xing, don’t cry. You’ve done nothing wrong and no one can say anything about you.”
Qin Xiaoyu was seething with anger. This matter had to be dealt with properly; she was about to leave, and who knew what trouble might arise while she was away. Just as she returned to her office, Director Fei walked in.
"I went to ask around, and it turns out that Cui has a bad mouth and said some really indecent things. Her bonus will be docked! If this isn't dealt with properly, she'll be out of control when I leave in a few days and you go on your honeymoon." Director Fei was also furious.
This Cui, relying on his good relationship with her, has always been somewhat disobedient. Now that he's gotten into trouble, it's a slap in the face for her.
“I don’t think holding a meeting will be very useful for this, and we can’t just keep silencing people. How about this, you transfer Da Cui to the warehouse for a few days.” Qin Xiaoyu’s decision left Factory Director Fei completely baffled.
The work in the warehouse isn't tiring at all; it's easier than working in the workshop. She's clearly been transferred to a good place, so what good thing did she do to deserve praise?
But she always listened to Qin Xiaoyu and didn't dare to say anything more, so she did as she was told.
Less than three days later, Qin Xiaoyu was sitting in her office when she heard a commotion downstairs; the female workers had all come out.
Da Cui got into a fight with a man. She was tall and big, while the man was short and couldn't gain the upper hand, so he could only keep cursing.
"You slut, you've been sleeping with some old man! I'll kill you today!"
"Stop talking nonsense! That's not true! The truck that was hauling the goods broke down and sat in the middle of nowhere all night. How could anything have happened?" Although Da Cui was angry, he still had to explain.
"Even if you tell me it's smallpox, I won't believe you. We're getting a divorce today, that's it!"
"Wait a minute, let me be your witness." Qin Xiaoyu pushed through the crowd and walked in.
"Director Qin, you have to testify for me, I'm innocent." As soon as Da Cui saw Qin Xiaoyu, he burst into tears.
"Brother-in-law Cui, Brother-in-law Cui is really fine. This was my arrangement," Qin Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"You arranged it? Arranged what?" Da Cui was stunned.
"I'll arrange for you to pick up the goods, and for the truck to break down," Qin Xiaoyu said calmly.
"Director Qin, this is not fair of you. Aren't you trying to make my wife and me fight?" Da Cui was furious when he heard this.
"I only arranged an accident, how did it cause you two to fight?" Qin Xiaoyu still had a half-smile on her face.
"You, do you even need to ask? These old women's mouths are like broken-down cars, they always stir up trouble out of nothing. They've really dumped the blame on me, Director Qin, what do you say we do about this!"
"What do you suggest we do? Who are you asking? You've been married for over ten years and have three children, and you're still worried about people gossiping behind your back. How can a young girl withstand your gossip? I admit I didn't raise this daughter well, I give up, just let me worry myself sick!" It was Aunt Cui who spoke up, chasing after Da Cui as she spoke.
"You know about this too? Mom, who are you on? Da Cui knew he had fallen into Qin Xiaoyu's trap."
"Quiet down, everyone. See? This is called 'an eye for an eye.' I know it's impossible to raise the quality of our employees to a high level overnight, but purification is the first step, and it's necessary. If we want to become a well-known enterprise, we must completely shed the shadow of the neighborhood committee's small workshop. I, Qin Xiaoyu, have the time and energy to play with you. What you see now is your example. Rumors stop with the wise. Think about it yourselves, what you can say and what you can't say. If anyone is still dissatisfied, feel free to challenge me!"
After Qin Xiaoyu finished speaking, the courtyard fell into a deathly silence. A young model timidly began to clap, and several of her friends joined in. Soon, one female worker after another joined in, and the courtyard erupted in applause.
Corporate culture is something Qin Xiaoyu has recently started to consider.
