Chapter 123: Die a Bad Death!

Wang Zhenggang was still waiting by the roadside for good news about Xiao Churan passing her interview when he suddenly received a text message from Ye Chen that left him dumbfounded!

Damn it, he was trying hard to curry favor with Ye Chen and had specifically instructed the head of Zhongxin Group to give Xiao Churan special treatment and ensure she passed the interview directly. Who the hell dared to reject him?

He couldn’t afford to delay and quickly sent a message to Ye Chen: “Master Ye, please wait a moment. I will definitely investigate this thoroughly and give you an explanation as soon as possible. I will send your wife an offer letter!”

Soon, Ye Chen replied with a single line: “No need, my wife won’t come to such a trashy company anymore.”

Wang Zhenggang looked at his phone, and his anger erupted instantly!

He immediately told the driver, “Call all the members of the Zhongxin board over here. They’ve gone too far!”

The person in charge who was still inspecting the construction site rushed back in a panic, while the other board members, unaware of what had happened, hurried to the chairman’s office, anxiously waiting for Wang Zhenggang to arrive.

Li Zixiang was not a board member, so he had no idea how big of a mess he had created.

After driving Xiao Churan away, he returned to his office, looking smug as he told Liu Jianhua and Tang Juan, “I have good news for you. Xiao Churan just got kicked out by me!”

Liu Jianhua and Tang Juan were naturally delighted to hear that he had driven Xiao Churan away and surrounded him, flattering him.

Liu Jianhua said with great enthusiasm, “Brother Xiang, you’re amazing! You made Xiao Churan leave with just one sentence.”

Tang Juan chimed in, “Of course! Brother Xiang is a senior executive at Zhongxin. Among us classmates, you’re the one who’s doing the best!”

As Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua flattered Li Zixiang, they thought to themselves that if they could get close to him, they might not become rich overnight, but at least they could have a bright future.

Li Zixiang, feeling proud, said, “I’ve never liked Ye Chen. Now that his wife wants to apply to Zhongxin, there’s no way that’s happening!”

Tang Juan asked, “Brother Xiang, did you record a video on your phone? I really want to see how ugly Xiao Churan’s expression was when you kicked her out!”

Li Zixiang laughed, “It must have looked terrible! Her eyes were red, as if she had just heard her mother died. It really cracked me up!”

Liu Jianhua quickly asked, “What about Ye Chen? Did he come along?”

“I didn’t see him.” Li Zixiang snorted, “If that loser dares to come, I’ll just blow him away. That pathetic loser thinks he can come to Zhongxin? I’ll break his legs!”

Tang Juan flattered, “Brother Xiang, you’re really impressive! How could someone like Ye Chen compare to you?”

Li Zixiang laughed heartily, saying, “Just wait. Once I get into the Zhongxin board, he and his wife will have to look up to me and worship me!”

Liu Jianhua quickly asked, “Brother Xiang, are you going to join the board?”

“Soon.” Li Zixiang smiled, “It’s in the works. If nothing goes wrong, I should be in within a few months! Once I’m in, my salary will double, and I’ll get stock options. By then, earning five million a year won’t be a dream!”

“Five million?! Brother Xiang, you’re amazing!” Liu Jianhua exclaimed, giving him a thumbs up. “Just don’t forget about me when you make it big!”

Li Zixiang nodded, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of you.”

Just then, there was a loud bang as the door to Li Zixiang’s office was kicked open.

“Who the hell dares to kick my door…”

Li Zixiang was startled and was about to curse when he turned around and saw all the board members had arrived, flattering a middle-aged man in a suit. He quickly swallowed his words.

Wang Zhenggang glared at Li Zixiang and asked, “Are you Li Zixiang?”

Li Zixiang was stunned and nodded, “Yes, that’s me.”

Without saying a word, Wang Zhenggang stepped forward and slapped Li Zixiang hard across the face.

“Are you looking for death? Who gave you the right to reject Ms. Xiao’s interview?”

Li Zixiang’s face immediately swelled up like a pig’s head, and he was dumbfounded: “Who are you? How dare you hit me!”

“Hit you? I’m not just going to hit you; I can take your life!”

Wang Zhenggang kicked Li Zixiang to the ground and stepped on his head, saying, “Do you know that Master Ye instructed me to ensure Ms. Xiao’s interview went smoothly, but you, this trash, messed it up? If you don’t pay the price today, I’ll write my name backward!”

Li Zixiang trembled all over, and upon hearing the name Wang Zhenggang, he realized he had kicked a steel plate!

Wang Zhenggang was the master of Zhongxin, the head of the Wang family!

The entire Zhongxin belonged to the Wang family, and he had offended such a powerful figure. What was going on?

“Mr. Wang… I really didn’t know about this. If I had known, even if you gave me ten times the courage, I wouldn’t have dared! Please calm down, Mr. Wang!”

Li Zixiang was pinned to the ground by Wang Zhenggang, unable to move like a dead dog, and could only plead desperately.

Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua were even more terrified, not daring to utter a word.

A big shot like Wang Zhenggang was beating up Li Zixiang, and it was all because of Ye Chen?!

Ye Chen was just a useless son-in-law; how could he have such power?!

Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua had no idea that the big shot in their eyes was merely a lapdog around Ye Chen.

At this moment, Wang Zhenggang was furious, pointing at Li Zixiang and gritting his teeth as he scolded, “Li Zixiang, from now on, you are fired from Zhongxin. According to the contract, this is a major liability incident, and you owe the company five million! If you don’t pay, I’ll make sure you regret it!”

Li Zixiang felt as if he had been struck by lightning!

Five million? He wouldn’t even have that much money if he sold himself!

Li Zixiang immediately knelt on the ground, repeatedly bowing his head, “Mr. Wang, please give me another chance. I’ll apologize to Xiao Churan right now. I really know I was wrong!”

Wang Zhenggang sneered, “Apologize? Do you even deserve that?”

Saying this, Wang Zhenggang kicked Li Zixiang away and instructed the others, “Pass it on: Li Zixiang offended Master Ye, and the Wang family is now fully banning him. We must make sure this trash ends up on the streets, unable to take a step!”

Li Zixiang completely broke down, his eyes filled with despair.

The reason he was able to be promoted and become an executive at such a young age was largely due to his voluntary signing of a contract that bound him to the company.

Zhongxin had implemented a very strict management contract to enhance control over employees. Signing it would lead to promotion, but it also meant being fully bound by Zhongxin.

For example, after Li Zixiang signed this agreement, he was promoted but had to work hard and be loyal. If he didn’t work diligently or showed any signs of disloyalty, Zhongxin would initiate a massive compensation claim against him.

Many people were afraid of taking responsibility and thus didn’t dare to sign such contracts. However, when Li Zixiang graduated, he signed it with his eyes closed to climb the corporate ladder.

He never expected that it would lead to such a bitter outcome!

Li Zixiang knelt on the ground, nearly collapsing.

He had bet everything on Zhongxin, but now the company was suing him for five million, and Wang Zhenggang wanted to ban him…

How could he possibly find another job now?

Without a job, there would be no income, and his life would fall into turmoil…

Moreover, he also had to face a five million compensation claim. At that point, he feared he would have no choice but to go to jail…

He knelt on the ground like a madman, desperately banging his head against the floor, crying and snotting, “Mr. Wang, please forgive me this once, give me another chance! If I get banned, how can I pay the company five million? Please give me a chance to stay in the company and serve you. I promise I’ll be humble and work diligently for the company!”

Wang Zhenggang kicked him again, sending him flying, and coldly said, “What’s the use of admitting your mistake now? Do you think the world is your family’s? You caused trouble and think saying sorry will make it go away? Let me tell you, if Master Ye gets angry because of you and comes after me, I’ll take your life!”

Li Zixiang trembled in fear, his face as pale as paper. He never imagined that the useless Ye Chen in his eyes could have such power that Wang Zhenggang would be willing to kill him for Ye Chen’s sake!

If he had known it would come to this, he would have rather knelt before Xiao Churan and called her “Grandma” than reject her…

Now, it was too late to say anything; his life was ruined…

At this moment, Wang Zhenggang frowned and noticed Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua in the office, questioning, “Who are you two? Are you Li Zixiang’s friends? Or employees of Zhongxin?”

Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua were suddenly jolted awake and quickly denied, “No, no, no, we have nothing to do with Li Zixiang. We don’t know him at all.”

At this point, it was too late to distance themselves from Li Zixiang; there was no way they would admit it.

Wang Zhenggang looked at them suspiciously, “If you don’t know him, why were you laughing and talking with him in his office?”

Seeing this, Li Zixiang angrily said, “Mr. Wang, they are my college classmates. They were the ones encouraging me to suppress Xiao Churan!”

Li Zixiang was almost going crazy. His miserable fate was closely tied to Tang Juan and Liu Jianhua, and they wouldn’t have a good ending either.

Wang Zhenggang coldly said, “So it’s a case of dogs biting dogs. Ban these two as well! I want them to be unable to find even a street-sweeping job in Jinling!”

Upon hearing this, Liu Jianhua panicked and frantically started fighting with Li Zixiang, “Li Zixiang, how could you drag me down with you? You won’t have a good end!”
