Chapter 120: Where does the hostility come from?
Jiang Yuan remembered that in the car, Yin Dong promised her to make her the financial director, and that the director would be her immediate superior from then on. She felt a chill running down her back.
But Jiang Yuan understood that this was the complexity and difficulty of the workplace.
Her life is more than just revenge. After that matter is resolved, she still has to support her and her mother. When there is an opportunity to climb up, there is no reason for her not to seize it.
She followed Sister Hui and went through her circle, and deeply realized how rare it was to be able to stand up straight and make a lot of money with her own ability.
Jiang Yuan was taking notes on her phone while listening to the new director's speech.
"Playing with your phone at work, playing with your phone in meetings, does your phone pay you?"
The woman's voice was sharp.
Jiang Yuan was lowering her head, and the atmosphere around her suddenly became depressing. She suddenly raised her head and found that she was being stared at by everyone. She met the bright gaze from the main seat head-on.
The woman's eyes were like knives, the blades flashing with cold light. Anyone who was looked at by her felt as if they were stabbed in the chest.
The people in the front row turned their heads to look at Jiang Yuan. Each of them had an expressionless expression on their face, but their necks were twisted almost 360 degrees, as if they were afraid that Jiang Yuan's situation was not embarrassing enough.
Jiang Yuan felt like she was being stabbed in the back, but she forced herself to remain calm. She looked up at the new director, facing everyone's gazes. "Are you talking about me?"
The new director glanced down at her, "Why, do you really want me to mention her by name?"
Jiang Yuan's face was expressionless: "I'm not playing with my phone. I'm taking notes. I made a note of what you just said."
She turned the screen of her phone over and faced everyone.
The people closest to her actually leaned in to look at the screen and said, "Yeah, she's really taking notes."
The new director didn't even glance at her. He glanced at her with disdain, his red lips curled up, revealing a hint of disdain. "Then I've wronged you. A good memory is not as good as a bad pen. Your teacher taught you that in school, right? Did you graduate from North City University? Are all graduates from North City University as rigid as you? This is just a little bit of information, and you plan to memorize it by rote when you go back?"
A low, scattered laugh rose from the crowd.
Jiang Yuankong forced her expression to remain unchanged. She asked sternly, "Are you saying that what you just said at the meeting was all insignificant nonsense and not worth remembering?"
The woman's smile froze. Her face tightened, and she raged. "Jiang Yuan, you don't want to do this anymore, right? Do you know where you are now? You've been fired by the M&A team, and whether the Finance Department will accept you is still a question!"
Jiang Yuan's intuition told her that this director was obviously hostile to her and even knew her background. He was probably well prepared.
Jiang Yuan sat steadily, his face as calm as a clock. "I've been in the company for less than two months, and I haven't made any mistakes at work. I don't know what reason you have to kick me out. Have I offended you in any way?"
Everyone present watched the confrontation between Jiang Yuan and the new director as if they were watching a good show. In everyone's eyes, it was bad luck for Jiang Yuan to stay in the Finance Department. Everyone was happy to see the new director's first anger fall on Jiang Yuan, which was just the right time to vent their grievances.
But Jiang Yuan's reaction really surprised them.
The new director and Jiang Yuan were both sitting in their seats, one at the main seat at the conference table, and the other in the corner of the last row, which was impossible to find without careful searching. This was consistent with their different statuses, one high and one low. However, Jiang Yuan had clear logic and was calm and composed. In contrast, the new director looked exasperated and had none of the demeanor that a superior should have.
