Unpredictable
He hadn't figured out Mingyao's background yet. If she had any connection with that woman from the Pei family, today's events would be a landmine planted for the Haichang branch, with the potential to explode at any moment.
Pei Siyu frowned, his gaze growing even colder.
If he weren't unwilling to hit a woman, he would definitely make Zhou Shuya know what the word "regret" means!
"President Pei, no."
Please, please give me another chance!
Pei Siyu was ruthless and ignored her pleas.
Zhou Shuya looked up, her eyes brimming with tears, "President Pei, you can't fire me!"
"My father died saving you. You promised him you'd stay by my side forever!"
"Is President Pei going to be ungrateful?!"
Zhou Shuya stared at him intently with a stern face, her voice accusatory.
Her father was Pei Siyu's driver and Zhou Shuya's only relative.
Five years ago, Zhou's father was driving Pei Siyu on the mountain road when an oncoming truck suddenly lost control and crashed violently into their car.
The car was pushed by the truck to the edge of the mountain road, below which was a bottomless abyss.
The situation was extremely dangerous, and the harsh reality presented Zhou's father with two choices.
The first option is to abandon the car and escape, watching Pei Siyu and the car plunge off the cliff.
The second option is for Pei Siyu to jump out of the car, while he and the car perish on the cliff.
Zhou's father chose the second option.
Before falling off the cliff, Zhou's father sent a final message to Zhou Shuya, who was still in a university classroom.
The only thing he couldn't let go of was Zhou Shuya. In order to ensure her future security, Zhou's father entrusted Zhou Shuya to Pei Siyu's care.
I hope Pei Siyu can give her a stable life in her later years.
After explaining everything, Zhou's father resolutely pushed Pei Siyu out of the car.
As soon as Pei Siyu got out of the passenger seat, the car began to shake violently.
Zhou's father smiled as he opened his phone, took one last look at Zhou Shuya's image on the screen saver, and then plunged off the cliff with the car.
When Zhou Shuya arrived after receiving the news, her father's body had already become mangled.
Pei Siyu fulfilled his promise to Zhou's father, providing her with accommodation and covering her living expenses and tuition for several years of university. After graduation, he directly entered the Haichang branch as a deputy manager.
"If my father hadn't sacrificed himself to save President Pei, I wouldn't have become an orphan!"
When Zhou Shuya thought of her father, tears streamed down her face like a burst dam.
Seeing the woman kneeling on the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, Pei Siyu's phoenix eyes shot out a cold glint.
It was indeed Zhou's father who risked his life to save him back then, but he has not mistreated Zhou Shuya over the years.
"President Pei, please give me another chance."
Zhou Shuya knew that Pei Siyu didn't like being threatened, but she was really desperate. She couldn't leave the Haichang branch, and she couldn't leave Pei Siyu either, so she spoke recklessly and tried to take advantage of his kindness.
"I promise! I'll never do anything so stupid again!"
Pei Siyu stood up expressionlessly, exuding an imposing and stern aura.
Zhou Shuya's breathing became labored, and her ashen face was devoid of any color.
The man approaching was like a god, cold, solemn, and unapproachable, making her dare not lay a finger on him.
He forcefully captured Zhou Shuya's entire gaze. "Fine, I'll give you one more chance."
Pei Siyu's voice was hoarse, and every word he uttered was like ice shards piercing Zhou Shuya's ears.
"If there's a second time, I'll make you disappear from my sight completely!"
Zhou Shuya nodded like a chick pecking at rice, "There won't be a second time, thank you, President Pei!"
"roll!"
The man's angry roar sent a chill down Zhou Shuya's spine. She forced herself to stand up, her legs still trembling.
She glanced quickly at Pei Siyu, whose face was as cold as ice, nodded slightly, and then fled the office as if escaping.
The assistant walked past Zhou Shuya, his gaze darkening, and strode into the office.
The office was extremely cold, the air was condensed, and it gave people a sense of oppression.
The assistant's heart tightened a little, and he cautiously glanced at Pei Siyu's face.
Pei Siyu's face showed no emotion, but his assistant knew perfectly well that he was angry.
"President Pei." He lowered his head and said hesitantly, "Zhou Shuya spoke rudely to Miss Su before coming to the office and even tried to hit her."
"It was Zhou Shuya's order that Miss Su went to see Boss Wang alone. She even blamed Miss Su for stealing her credit."
Recalling Mingyao's tearful face, the assistant couldn't help but soften, and said in a low voice, "I'm worried that Zhou Shuya might still harm Miss Su. Mr. Pei, perhaps you should..."
Before he could finish speaking, a gaze as cold and piercing as an ice pick pierced straight through his chest.
The assistant stiffened slightly, swallowing the words that were on the tip of his tongue. "President Pei, I was wrong."
"go out!"
"yes."
After closing the office door, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief, and the chill that had enveloped him dissipated somewhat.
He's increasingly unable to understand the CEO; his temperament is so unpredictable.
At the same time, Mingyao, who was at the front desk, sneezed.
Ni An looked at her with concern, about to ask her something, when the next second, the voices of Boss Wang and Manager Zhang chatting and laughing came over.
The two instantly straightened their posture and put on their signature smiles.
As they approached the front desk, Boss Wang adjusted his suit trousers beneath his large belly and looked at Mingyao with a deep gaze. "Xiao Su, you're a major contributor to the company now. How are you going to thank me?"
Meeting his ill-intentioned gaze, Mingyao's smile remained unchanged. "When Boss Wang comes next time, I will personally receive him."
