Ten minutes later, Zong Jin arrived at the company and immediately met with Wu Youyou.
They entered the office together, and in an instant, Wu Youyou, who had been feeling down just a moment ago, lit up at the sight of the vanilla mille-feuille that Zong Jin was holding. She sat on the sofa, eagerly devouring the sweet layers, seemingly forgetting about the workplace bullying she had just experienced.
Zong Jin watched Wu Youyou enjoy her treat and couldn't help but smile. He had always treated her like a little sister, and her spoiled yet adorable nature was something he had nurtured himself. However, he also knew that a girl who had seen the world wouldn't easily be taken advantage of; even if she faced difficulties, he would always be there to protect her as her brother-in-law.
Zong Jin cherished Wu Youyou because she was the younger sister of his deceased wife. After her passing, she left him with nothing but this simple and willful sister. He had vowed at his wife's grave to take care of Wu Youyou as if she were his own sister, ensuring that she would never suffer even the slightest injustice.
After waiting for Wu Youyou to finish her meal, she walked over to Zong Jin's desk and proudly showed off her manicured nails. "Look at my nails! Aren't they sparkly?"
Zong Jin didn't understand what "sparkly" meant, but he nodded and said he saw them.
Wu Youyou pouted. "You didn't even look! But I know no matter what, you'll praise me." She flicked her long ponytail and added, "I listened to you and dyed my hair back! I'm being good, right?"
Zong Jin smiled and replied, "Yes."
At that moment, Wu Youyou suddenly remembered the grievances she had just endured. She frowned and began to voice her complaints about the Human Resources Department.
Zong Jin called his male secretary and ordered him to bring the staff from the Human Resources Department upstairs.
A few minutes later, Lan Qingqing and the male manager from the Human Resources Department arrived together.
When Lan Qingqing saw Wu Youyou sitting on the sofa playing games on her phone, she was completely stunned. Just half an hour ago, she felt empowered and believed she could control the fate of employees; now she wished she could slap herself for her earlier arrogance!
Wu Youyou was clearly connected to the Zong family! Being able to play games in Zong Jin's office meant her status was extraordinarily privileged!
Lan Qingqing instantly felt intimidated. She took small steps backward and hid behind the male leader, fearing that her career might be ruined.
Behind his desk, Zong Jin spoke coldly. "Explain yourselves. Wu Youyou faced unfair treatment during her interview. Is this how your Human Resources Department treats employees?"
The male leader broke into a cold sweat from fear. He nervously wiped his forehead multiple times as beads of sweat glistened in his hair.
He shot a glare at Lan Qingqing, who dared not speak up.
Not wanting to take the blame for Lan Qingqing, he pulled her out from behind him just as he was about to explain when Wu Youyou stood up from the sofa and interjected. "Actually, this male leader didn't make things difficult for me during my interview; however, his inaction is also a significant problem."
She walked in front of Lan Qingqing with a slight smile and asked, "Could you please explain what 'smirking' means?"
Lan Qingqing kept her head down, gripping the hem of her clothes tightly.
Zong Jin spoke up, stating that within a week, they would need to complete the handover process, and both of them should handle their resignation procedures.
In the next moment, the Male Leader pleaded desperately, explaining that he had an elderly parent and young children relying on him. He could not afford to lose this job. He begged Zong Jin for another chance, promising to improve and reflect on his mistakes, assuring that he would never repeat them.
Wu Youyou's gaze fell on Lan Qingqing, and she deliberately provoked her, suggesting that it seemed like Lan could afford to lose this job without a care.
Lan Qingqing bit her lip, her worthless pride causing turmoil within her. She knew she could not lose this job; she was set to start a new position tomorrow. There was no way she could afford to make a mistake at such a critical moment!
Tears welled up in her eyes as she fought to hold them back. With a tone filled with contrition, she carefully crafted her words. "I apologize, Ms. Wu Youyou. It was my mistake to underestimate you. I judged you through a narrow lens and failed to see your true worth! I wrongly assumed you were like those who have studied abroad and cannot commit to their roles due to high aspirations. I misjudged you based on my past experiences where companies often struggle to retain employees with such backgrounds."
She continued, "I should not have let my experiences dictate my judgment of your capabilities. I was too eager to find suitable employees for the company and did not want our resources wasted. Today is particularly significant for me as it is my last day in this position, and I wanted to achieve something noteworthy for my leaders and the company! In my impulsiveness, I said things that hurt you, and for that, I am truly sorry!"
Lan Qingqing bowed deeply, startling Wu Youyou.
After listening to this long-winded apology, Wu Youyou was left bewildered, unable to recall the specifics of Lan Qingqing's rambling. All she felt was that this girl certainly had a talent for twisting words.
