Chapter 9: Li Yong Plays Tricks



Chapter 9: Li Yong Plays Tricks

Li Xiaoyao sat in his office, legs propped up on the desk, looking out of the floor-to-ceiling windows at the scenery, in an exceptionally good mood.

Life, he thought, should be like this, not spent fighting and killing—that's just boring.

"Thump thump thump!" Someone knocked on the door.

Li Xiaoyao put his feet down and shouted to the door, "Come in."

The door opened, and a man dressed in a security uniform walked in. He saw Li Xiaoyao and showed no sign of respect, standing at the door with an arrogant demeanor, and said, "You must be the new guy, huh? Li Xiaoyao, right? Li Yong is looking for you. Come see him."

Li Xiaoyao paused only for a moment but quickly gleaned useful information from the man's clothes.

A junior security guard, daring to be so arrogant with him—it must be because he had suddenly become the head of the security department.

Li Xiaoyao asked, "Li Yong? Who's that? Never heard of him."

The security guard snorted and said, "Li Yong, the head of the security department."

Li Xiaoyao let out a long "Oh," saying, "Li Yong? I remember he was fired, wasn't he? How come he's still here?"

The security guard scoffed, "Fired? Hah, we don't agree. No one's going to fire Li Yong without our say-so. Hey, stop with the nonsense and just come with me."

Li Xiaoyao chuckled and said, "So you are still supporting a fired department head. It seems that this Li Yong has treated you guys pretty well."

The security guard, impatient, blurted out, "Are you done asking your questions? If so, hurry up and follow me!"

Li Xiaoyao's smile turned cold as he said, "Go back and tell Li Yong to get out of the company before I lose my temper; otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

The security guard was taken aback, not expecting Li Xiaoyao to suddenly make such a statement. For a moment, he didn't dare to retort.

He had thought that this new department head would be terrified by a few threatening words from him. But it seemed that this new boss was not someone to be trifled with.

With his tail between his legs, the security guard walked out, while Li Xiaoyao resumed propping up his legs, stroking his chin and contemplating whether he should take care of this matter.

After all, he was now sort of the head of the security department. Since he'd taken the paycheck, it was only natural to defuse the situation.

"Thump thump thump!" Knocking sounded again.

"Come in."

The door opened, and Zhang Meng rushed in nervously. Seeing her like this, Li Xiaoyao was a bit surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?"

Zhang Meng said, "Li Yong is leading a group of security guards in a strike at the entrance. They've even put up a banner."

After hearing this, Li Xiaoyao felt somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected that Li Yong would be so scheming.

Li Xiaoyao dismissively said, "If he wants to put up a banner, let him. With this weather, they won't last half an hour before they get heatstroke."

Zhang Meng anxiously said, "No, we can't let that happen. If Director Lan saw it, you'd definitely be fired, and the rest of us would be punished too."

Li Xiaoyao didn't care about being fired himself, but he couldn't drag Zhang Meng into it. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Take me downstairs to have a look. Just a bunch of grasshoppers; no matter how much they jump, they're still just grasshoppers."

Li Xiaoyao stood up, and he and Zhang Meng took the elevator downstairs.

Outside the company building, more than forty security guards were holding a banner and had blocked the entire entrance.

The employees coming to work were stuck outside, unable to enter at all.

"Hey, let us in, we have to get to work," an employee shouted, but the security guards were unmoved.

Li Xiaoyao and Zhang Meng came out of the main gate. Li Xiaoyao looked around at the faces of the security guards and asked, "Which one of you is Li Yong?"

Zhang Meng shook her head and said, "Li Yong is no fool. He must have instigated these security guards, but he definitely won't show himself. If he does, it will be an admission that he organized this, and he would never be able to stay in the company."

Li Xiaoyao curled his lips into a smile and said, "This Li Yong does have some tricks up his sleeve."

Zhang Meng had a worried frown on her face, and at that moment, Zhuo Yi also came out. She immediately saw Li Xiaoyao and the other, walking over quickly with an equally troubled expression on her face, "What are we going to do? Director Lan is on the way and will be at the company in no more than ten minutes. If she sees this scene, she'll definitely be very angry."

As the two women were at a loss, Li Xiaoyao snapped his fingers and said, "Leave it to me."

The two women anxiously asked, "What can you do?"

Li Xiaoyao replied, "There is always a way. Just watch."

"Meng Meng, take out your phone and follow me," Li Xiaoyao called out.

Zhang Meng was stunned for a while before she realized Li Xiaoyao was calling her, and her cheeks flushed slightly at the thought that this scoundrel was actually calling her Meng Meng. But now was not the time to worry about this. Although she had no idea why Li Xiaoyao wanted her to take out her phone, she did as she was told.

Li Xiaoyao, with his hands behind his back, sauntered to the front of the forty or so security guards and said to Zhang Meng at his side, "Follow me, use your phone to take pictures of each of them, don't talk, just keep taking pictures."

"Okay," Zhang Meng obediently nodded.

Except for the dog who had gone to the office to find Li Xiaoyao, none of the other security guards recognized him. They watched as Li Xiaoyao and Zhang Meng approached, clueless about what they intended to do.

Li Xiaoyao said with a smile, "Let me introduce myself. I'm Li Xiaoyao, head of the company's Marketing and Security departments. I had planned on having a meeting with everyone today to have a good chat, but I never expected to encounter such a terrible incident as soon as I arrived at the company."

While Li Xiaoyao was speaking, Zhang Meng was by his side, taking photos of the security guards with her phone.

Li Xiaoyao continued, "How the company has treated everyone on normal days, you all know in your hearts, so I won't say much. I just want to ask one question, do your actions today do justice to the company that has been paying your salaries? Do they honor your wives, children, and girlfriends?"

The security guards were all stunned, feeling guilty towards the company made sense, but what did this have to do with their wives, children, and girlfriends?

Li Xiaoyao pointed his finger at one of the security guards, his gaze sharp, and asked, "Tell me, how much is your monthly salary?"

The guard humbly replied, "3300, plus attendance and bonuses, I can make 5000 a month."

"5000 yuan! And all you have to do is walk around each day, and you can earn so much in a month, do you feel the company has wronged you?"

The guard hesitated and then shook his head, "No."

Li Xiaoyao looked at him and said, "This salary, in the whole of Ling City, is definitely at the top. The company is so good to you, but look at what you're doing now. Isn't this biting the hand that feeds you?"

The faces of the security guards turned red with shame, and they looked down, unable to speak.

Li Xiaoyao said, "Alright, if you feel the company has not treated you well enough, then fine, all of you come with me. I will take you to the HR department, and everyone will leave."

As soon as Li Xiaoyao said this, the security guards immediately panicked.

They were here to strike for the extra five hundred yuan promised by Li Yong; they had never considered resigning.

Seeing the expressions on the security guards' faces, Li Xiaoyao knew where their pain lay.

Strike the snake at its vital point, Li Xiaoyao's mouth curved into a smile, thinking to himself, a dismissed head of security wants to play tricks on me? That's just courting death!
