22: Chapter 22 Crying Yuan Mengmeng 22: Chapter 22 Crying Yuan Mengmeng Eastern Company’s security department was located on the B1 level. Because Su Yumo had already made a call in advance, when Ye Xuan took the elevator down, he was received by the security department manager, Ma Zhitao. “Ye Xuan,” Ma Zhitao began, “although the security department may not seem prominent within Eastern Group, its role is invaluable. As the company’s first line of defense, we safeguard the security of everyone at the company, so we must not allow any mistakes!” Ma Zhitao was a man in his early forties with a pointy chin and monkey cheeks. At that moment, he tried to look stern as he spoke to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan chuckled to himself inwardly but on the surface offered flattery, “Rest assured, Manager Ma. Being a security guard has always been my life’s aspiration. I will certainly fulfill my duties, diligently implement your guidelines, and follow in your footsteps to contribute to the company’s security work!” Ma Zhitao felt a bit embarrassed by Ye Xuan’s words, “Uh, you’re doing well. Here’s the thing… just punch in your card once every morning and evening. You can arrange your work time freely. I won’t force you to do anything. How does that sound?” As the security department manager, he knew he couldn’t compare to Manager Su from the HR department. Since Ye Xuan had Su Yumo personally arranging things for him, he must be a relative of someone high up in the company—a connected individual! Ma Zhitao’s initial intention was to assert his managerial authority, but this young man was so agreeable that it actually made him feel a bit awkward. With all seriousness, Ye Xuan said, “How can that be? I’m not here to hold a nominal position and get paid for doing nothing. I believe being a security guard is a noble profession, and you, Manager Ma, are the beacon on my life’s path, illuminating the direction I should go. Just assign me work as you see fit!” Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Ma Zhitao felt touched. This kid, he truly loves being a security guard. I mustn’t bury his talent! Clearing his throat, Ma Zhitao said, “Alright then, you can start by getting a security uniform and familiaring yourself with the work procedures. Then you can begin your duties.” “Okay, Manager Ma. I definitely won’t let you down and will strive to be an outstanding security guard!” Ye Xuan promised and turned to leave. … Ye Xuan’s job was not complicated. After asking another security guard named Zheng Xiaobo, Ye Xuan had a clear understanding of the work process. Put simply, it was standing guard, patrolling, and monitoring—jobs with no technical content, which were a piece of cake for Ye Xuan. He changed into a security uniform and came out of the changing room, starting his patrol on various floors. Turning around a stairwell, he suddenly spied a familiar figure. “Hm? Why is it her?” Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed as he saw her approaching with swollen eyes, appearing as if she’d just cried. She was walking toward him with her head bowed. Yuan Mengmeng’s face was pale, lost, and despondent, with traces of tear stains still on her cheeks, walking forward in despair. Eastern Group was a large company offering excellent salary and benefits; it had been no easy feat for a college graduate like her to secure such a job! Moreover, her family had recently encountered major problems and urgently needed money. She cherished this job dearly; losing it would mean she wouldn’t have time to find another one with a comparable salary. Yuan Mengmeng felt helpless and desperate. With a naive mind, she did not understand the treacherous nature of people. She had thought that after getting this job, things should have improved. But unexpectedly, her superior had harbored improper intentions toward her. If she didn’t comply, she would only face dismissal. “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy?” Just as Yuan Mengmeng was walking forward in a daze, Ye Xuan’s concerned voice reached her. He remembered the girl to be timid and scared, which was why he had decided to help her last time. Bullying such a delicate girl was simply despicable! Yuan Mengmeng looked up and saw Ye Xuan smiling in front of her. “It’s you.” Yuan Mengmeng quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and stiffly smiled at Ye Xuan, “Thank you again for today. By the way, why are you dressed like this?” Ye Xuan laughed, “I’m the new security guard starting today, so we’re colleagues now!” “Ah? You’re a security guard at our company? That won’t cause you any trouble, will it?” Yuan Mengmeng was taken aback, and then worry flashed across her face. She was referring to the incident where Ye Xuan had previously helped her. He had offended Director Feng that day, and if the latter held a grudge and wanted to retaliate against a minor security guard, it would be all too easy. If Ye Xuan were fired because of this, she would feel immense shame! “I guess I’m not the one in trouble, you must be the one facing problems, right?” Ye Xuan smiled indifferently, noticing that Yuan Mengmeng seemed to have something on her mind, but the fact that she cared about him at such a time showed her kind-hearted nature. “I… I’m fine!” Yuan Mengmeng’s lips quivered, a shadow flitting across her face, as she looked at Ye Xuan and asked softly, “Can you tell me your name?” “My name’s Ye Xuan.” Ye Xuan smiled, pointing to the work badge on Yuan Mengmeng’s chest: “You don’t need to introduce yourself, I know your name is Yuan Mengmeng!” Just as Yuan Mengmeng began to speak, Ye Xuan interrupted and said it for her. After a moment of silence, she said, “Ye Big Brother, you’re a good person. Even if I leave the Eastern Group, I will remember you!” Good person? Hearing Yuan Mengmeng’s words, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but let out a wry laugh, being given the ‘good person card’ for the first time! However, he also discerned another meaning from her words. “Is it that fat pig bullying you again?” asked Ye Xuan. “Ye Big Brother, I’m okay, you don’t have to worry about me.” Yuan Mengmeng sniffed, trying to force a smile, yet tears still rolled in her eyes. “Mengmeng, since you’ve called me Ye Big Brother, then tell me what happened. Maybe I can help you. Even if I can’t help, talking about it will make you feel better, won’t it?” Ye Xuan spoke, trying to comfort her. He could see that Yuan Mengmeng kept silent because she didn’t want to bring him any trouble. And that’s indeed what Yuan Mengmeng thought! In her eyes, Ye Xuan had only just started his first day at work, how could he possibly stand up to the well-established Director Feng? Even telling him would have been pointless. “Ye Big Brother, I…” Hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Yuan Mengmeng could no longer hold back, her tears flowing down like a string of broken pearls as she revealed the reason behind her distress. It turned out that Director Feng, after being driven away by Ye Xuan, didn’t just give up. Instead, he tried to force Yuan Mengmeng to become his mistress! Naturally, Yuan Mengmeng refused, so Director Feng ordered her to drive away the Flying Car Gang who was extorting ‘protection fees’ from them; otherwise, he would kick her out of the Company. Everyone knew that the Flying Car Gang was a bunch of ruffians forming a social group, involved in fights and extorting ‘protection fees’ from various big companies! Recently, the Eastern Group had been targeted by them, and as a result, the Flying Car Gang specifically sent a group of thugs to loiter around the Company premises from dawn to dusk, pressuring the Eastern Group to pay up. When the Eastern Group sent people to negotiate, the Gang blatantly demanded one million and even broke an employee’s leg, who now laid in the hospital. Asking a girl, fresh out of college, to negotiate with the black society was, to say the least, a despicable move by Director Feng! With her looks, it was highly likely that those thugs would leave nothing behind! “That old scoundrel, I’ll go and give him a beating!” Ye Xuan’s face turned dark as he charged towards the door. Right under my wife Su Yumo’s nose, he dares to sexually harass a female subordinate? Even if it were to be a sexual harassment, that should be me… Ugh, I mean, I am just looking out for my wife’s concern for the health of her subordinates. “Ye Big Brother, don’t go, you’ll get fired for beating him! I can find another job. It’s okay!” Yuan Mengmeng was startled, and in her distress, she grabbed Ye Xuan, preventing him from attacking anyone. “Alright, I won’t go.” Ye Xuan softened as he saw the anxious expression on Yuan Mengmeng’s face. He never really took that Director Feng seriously, but he also didn’t want to make things too difficult for him. “So you’re saying if the Flying Car Gang is driven away, Director Feng won’t fire you, right?” Ye Xuan asked. Yuan Mengmeng rubbed her swollen eyes and nodded, “Yes, Ye Big Brother, but we can’t fight the Flying Car Gang.” “Leave this matter to me. A mere Flying Car Gang is nothing. Follow me and see how I teach these sons of bitches a lesson!” S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
