Chapter 15

"Thank you, General Manager!" Duan Jiye said with a lump in his throat, truly moved. With the General Manager's words, he now had a secure position.

Qiao Yun didn't say much, just let go and walked away. A group of department managers came over to shake hands with him, saying, "Minister Duan, you've been wronged..."

"Thank you! Thank you..." Duan Jiye thanked each of them, very humbly.

As Qiao Yun led the group to the lobby, they saw Dong Jiayun, who had run out earlier, being held down by two security guards against a pillar in the hall.

Beside them, Lin Zixian and Qian Ligang each carried a large pile of boxed meals.

Seeing this scene, the department managers were all shocked, realizing they had underestimated the Security Department. The mighty General Affairs Minister could be arrested and dealt with at will, even more powerful than the police. Fortunately, they hadn't provoked them before, or they would have been the ones being pinned to the pillar and beaten.

"Dong, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!" Dong Jiayun was still roaring, her voice fierce.

"Damn it! I don't know which blind eye hired you into Minghua Group. Now that you're in my hands, you still dare to be arrogant. I don't care what kind of background you have," Lin Zixian put the boxed meals on the ground and pulled out the electric baton from Qian Ligang's waist.

The blue electric arc flashed on the baton, and after testing its power, which could knock down a wild boar, he walked toward Dong Jiayun, ready to strike again.

The department managers all widened their eyes, finally realizing the power of the Security Department. The electric baton was a deadly weapon that no other department had.

Duan Jiye, who came out last, almost stumbled when he saw this scene. "Brother, do you know the General Manager is watching you from behind? What are you doing? If you keep this up, our Security Department will soon become the feared Jinyiwei of the entire Minghua Group."

"Lin Zixian, what are you doing?" Qiao Yun couldn't stand it anymore. She had never seen so many men bullying a woman, which was outrageous, and finally spoke up.

Lin Zixian was taken aback, turned around, and saw a group of people watching from the corner. Qiao Yun was staring at him coldly. He subconsciously glanced at Duan Jiye, who gave him a nod, indicating that everything was settled.

He relaxed and chuckled, "General Manager, you haven't seen how arrogant this woman is. She openly insulted us as guard dogs, seriously damaging our dignity. I was planning to arrest her, then report to the police, and sue her for defamation."

The group was speechless. You're going to sue her for defamation for calling you dogs? What crime is it to privately administer punishment?

"Let her go!" Qiao Yun said coldly.

Lin Zixian felt a bit guilty facing her, and the other security guards were even more hesitant, immediately releasing Dong Jiayun. She didn't say a word, feeling utterly wronged, and ran away crying.

Qiao Yun didn't like Lin Zixian at all. Once the matter was settled, she didn't even want to look at him, rolled up her sleeve to reveal a beautiful watch, checked the time, and said to the group, "Everyone, hurry up and eat. After eating, we'll continue discussing the project."

The department managers immediately headed to the company cafeteria, each staring at Lin Zixian as they left, trying to remember him clearly so they wouldn't accidentally be zapped by his electric baton. The Security Department was not to be trifled with!

Lin Zixian wasn't interested in them. He stood in the lobby and clapped his hands, shouting, "Brothers of the Security Department, you've all worked hard today. Today I'll treat you to boxed meals. Come and get them when you have a moment. If you're busy, have someone else pick them up for you. Pay attention to hygiene and don't litter."

Today, the Security Department had its moment in the spotlight, even dealing with the arrogant General Affairs Minister Dong. The General Manager didn't stand up for her, clearly supporting the Security Department. The guys who were usually looked down upon as mere gatekeepers were in high spirits, finally feeling a sense of achievement.

A colleague from the monitoring room came out to get a boxed meal and told the others, "That Dong woman was not only dealt with, but the General Manager also fired her."

Lin Zixian didn't hear their whispers, carrying the remaining boxed meals to the customer service counter. He smiled at the two sisters whose faces hadn't yet recovered, "What's wrong? Eating is the most important thing. Don't overthink it, just eat!"

Duan Jiye walked over with a happy expression, "Xiao Zhang, Xiao Li, you don't need to worry about that woman anymore. She's been fired by the General Manager. Eat with peace of mind!"

"Fired?" Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li exclaimed. Duan Jiye smiled and nodded.

Lin Zixian's face showed a hint of doubt. He thought this incident would only make Dong Minister lose face, not get her fired.

He glanced at Duan Jiye, suspecting something. Duan Jiye must have done something to push the matter further. Otherwise, the still-attractive Dong wouldn't have been fired. With the situation like this, Dong would likely be his enemy. If she were still in the company, she might have some reservations, but now it could be troublesome...

Just as he was thinking, the sound of high heels came again. Turning around, he saw Ning Lan smiling behind him. Lin Zixian was taken aback, "Why are you here again?"

The word "again" made Ning Lan's face freeze for a moment. She pretended to be angry, "I haven't eaten yet. Passing by, I saw you guys with boxed meals and thought I could save some steps and get a free meal. If you don't want me to, I'll leave."

Actually, she wasn't just passing by. After reporting to the chairman, Qiao Antian couldn't come down, so he asked her to keep an eye on things. If Qiao Yun provoked Lin Zixian, he could intervene in time.

Lin Zixian quickly grabbed her wrist, smiling, "Assistant Ning, how could we not have a meal for you? I was worried there wouldn't be enough, so I bought a few extra. If you don't mind, join us."

"Right! Right! Assistant Ning, please join us!" Duan Jiye flattered her.

Ning Lan awkwardly pulled her hand away, pretending to look at what they were eating. Lin Zixian quickly handed her a boxed meal, opened it, and gave her chopsticks, apologizing for his earlier rudeness.

Feeling a bit pampered, Ning Lan's heart warmed as she took the chopsticks and picked up a bit of rice, chewing it and smiling, "It's quite good!"

Lin Zixian turned his cap to the back, called the others over, and started eating heartily. Ning Lan, who was leaning on the counter with him, occasionally stole glances at him and found a chance to ask, "How did things go between the Security Department and Minister Dong?"

Lin Zixian shrugged, pointing to Duan Jiye with his chopsticks, "I was buying boxed meals and didn't see what happened. Ask Minister Duan, he handled it."

Ning Lan tilted her head, looking at Duan Jiye. This assistant knew the background. If the Security Department hadn't broken the rules first, things wouldn't have escalated to this point. But seeing that Assistant Ning was eating with Deputy Minister Lin, it seemed there wouldn't be any problems. Duan Jiye smiled awkwardly, "Minister Dong was fired by the General Manager."

"Minister Dong was fired?" Ning Lan frowned, finding it hard to believe. She ate a bit faster, needing to report this to the chairman as soon as possible. Dong Jiayun's brother-in-law wasn't someone to be trifled with, and the chairman needed to be prepared.

After eating, Ning Lan said goodbye, and Qian Ligang came over to clean up the trash.

Seeing Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li still keeping their distance, Lin Zixian felt bored and lost interest in teasing them. He wandered around, found a security guard who had witnessed the incident, and asked about the details.

Learning about the confrontation between Duan Jiye and Dong Jiayun, he couldn't help but admire the Security Department's ability to turn the situation to their advantage. Duan Jiye was indeed not a simple person, and being in the Security Department was a waste of his talent.

After eating and drinking, he lit a cigarette, enjoyed the new photo of himself in the employee board, and then returned to his office, closed the door, and fell asleep on the sofa...

In a luxurious villa in the East Sea, Deputy Police Chief Qiu Renzhan was smoking, listening to his sister-in-law Dong Jiayun crying on the phone, recounting the injustice she had suffered.

Qiu Renzhan frowned, smoking. Although Dong Jiayun claimed she was in the right, he knew her well enough to know she was a troublemaker. The situation was more complicated than she described; otherwise, Minghua Group wouldn't have fired her without regard for his face.

He couldn't ignore her, though. She was not just his sister-in-law but also his secret lover, and the villa was their love nest. More importantly, her son was actually his, so he doted on her.

However, Minghua Group wasn't easy to provoke. It was a major company in the East Sea, and Chairman Qiao Antian had close ties with the police chief and the mayor. He needed a legitimate reason to take action. How could he avenge his sister-in-law?

Just then, his private phone rang. Checking the caller ID, it was none other than Chairman Qiao Antian of Minghua Group. He immediately answered, smiling, "Chairman Qiao, I'm sorry. My sister-in-law has told me everything, but I know her character, and she must have caused you trouble."
