Xu Zhou grabbed Ye Shijun's hand and was about to walk into Huili Building, but Ye Shijun gently pulled back, stopping him from moving forward. She looked at him, shook her head slightly, and said, "Forget it. Just find another job. There's no need to argue with that kind of person."
The shorter woman beside him was quite resentful. "Yeah! What's the point of you coming here now? The business is already open. What can you do to Manager Wang? Manager Wang has had a crush on Ye Shijun for a long time. You..."
"Zhang Li, that's enough!" Ye Shijun shouted, interrupting Zhang Li. She glanced at Xu Zhou, only to find that his expression was gloomy. Xu Zhou naturally gathered something from Zhang Li's fragmentary remarks. Manager Wang had a crush on Ye Shijun, and then he knew he was her boyfriend. Furthermore, Ye Shijun, hoping to secure a better job, had wanted to demonstrate her abilities in the interview process, which was why she had given him an exception. Manager Wang, however, seized upon this and fired Ye Shijun!
Xu Zhou was quite perceptive and quickly figured out the situation, though he didn't know the details. If Xu Zhou had known that Manager Wang had harbored ill intentions toward Ye Shijun, or even threatened her, he might have rushed over and assaulted him.
"Forget it, honey. Let's go." Ye Shijun didn't want to linger in Huili Building any longer. Although she had little affection for Manager Wang, he did have considerable connections there. According to rumors among colleagues, he had close ties to the head of Huili Building's HR department. If she went there now, she would likely bring disgrace upon herself. Xu Zhou heard Ye Shijun's tone, and their tacit understanding over the years made her realize that Ye Shijun truly didn't want to stay here. But she had to vent her anger! Furthermore, he now had an unlimited balance, so it made sense to let his girlfriend know. So, why not let her know now and vent her anger?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhou took Ye Shijun's hand, looked into her beautiful eyes, and said seriously, "Trust me, I'll help you vent your anger. When have I ever acted impulsively?"
Ye Shijun initially wanted to refuse, but after hearing Xu Zhou's last words, she hesitated.
Xu Zhou had always been steady and reserved, a quality Ye Shijun greatly admired. It could be said that his personality was the reason Ye Shijun liked him so much. But Xu Zhou was still young, after all. Ye Shijun looked at his serious and earnest expression and nodded gently, saying, "Okay."
Hearing Ye Shijun's agreement, Xu Zhou pulled Xu Zhou into the elevator. Zhang Li, standing by, was stunned. Ye Shijun's boyfriend was a young fool, but why was Ye Shijun so foolish today, actually going to cause trouble for Manager Wang?
"Hey, you guys are really going!" Zhang Li was stunned for a moment and shouted. Just as she was about to chase after them, she suddenly stopped.
They're going up now to cause trouble for Manager Wang. If I follow them now, thinking I'm in the same group as them and get into trouble with them later, wouldn't I be the one suffering?
Thinking this way, Zhang Li fell behind. Only after Xu Zhou and Ye Shijun took the elevator did she take the other side, to show she wasn't on the same side as them so she could watch the fun. If Zhang Li had come to see this, she would have envied Ye Shijun to death. Manager Wang had plenty of money, and he was only in his thirties, the perfect age to be caring. How wonderful!
Thinking this, Zhang Li became even more eager to see the excitement.
Xu Zhou and Ye Shijun arrived at the fifth floor of Huili Building, the very floor where Xu Zhou had originally interviewed. The first room on the right in the hallway directly in front of the elevator was the interview area. There were still a dozen people waiting for their interviews, and Manager Wang was interviewing them inside.
But Manager Wang's expression was now sullen and uncontrollable. Even when facing the applicants, his expression didn't seem much better. His questions were pointed and impatient, as if he was venting the lingering anger he had felt towards Ye Shijun on them.
Xu Zhou took Ye Shijun's hand, glanced at the dozen or so people waiting outside, then knocked gently on the door and opened it without waiting for a response. The dozen or so people outside naturally recognized Ye Shijun and Xu Zhou, and they had seen the previous scene between Ye Shijun and Manager Wang clearly. As they exchanged glances, they saw a hint of excitement in each other's eyes. As the door opened, Manager Wang saw Xu Zhou and Ye Shijun with a gloomy expression. Seeing them holding hands, his expression darkened even more. He then fixed his gaze on Xu Zhou and sneered, "You poor brat? What's wrong? I fired Ye Shijun, and you're not convinced?"
Xu Zhou's expression remained unchanged. Now he felt more confident than ever before. He said calmly, "Poor brat? Are you rich?"
Manager Wang leaned back slightly in his office chair, his expression contemptuous. He looked at Xu Zhou with a sneer, "I don't consider myself rich, because my standards are high. But in the eyes of a poor brat like you, perhaps I'm already rich enough to shock you."
Without waiting for Xu Zhou to reply, he glanced at Ye Shijun, his eyes amusement. He had been fuming over Ye Shijun's lack of respect, and this brat had brought his girlfriend along, trying to retaliate. This gave him an opportunity. A thought welled up in his mind. With a hint of satisfaction, he said with disdain, "I just told Ye Shijun to leave you, but she refused. Now I'm giving you a chance. Don't you want to work at Huili Building? Break up with your girlfriend, and you'll be accepted directly. How about that?"
A hint of anger crossed Xu Zhou's face, but he quickly suppressed it. In his mind, he said to the system, "Transfer 1 billion to my Alipay account."
"Please check."
The system's response was concise and straightforward. Xu Zhou lowered his head, opened his phone, and took Ye Shijun's hand. He walked over to Manager Wang, opened the Alipay balance screen, and held the phone in front of Manager Wang. With a look of contempt and disdain, he said calmly, "Are you rich?"
Manager Wang was about to sneer, but suddenly he saw the long string of zeros on his Alipay account. The eye-catching string of zeros made his eyes flutter. He swallowed back the words he was about to say, and involuntarily picked up Xu Zhou's phone. Xu Zhou felt a little pleased when he saw Manager Wang like this. Although he was steady and introverted, his girlfriend was bullied like this and even dared to ask him to break up with her in public. If he didn't repay this humiliation, he would be unworthy of being a human being!
