Chapter 15：Fire Him!

Su Lin puffed out her chest angrily and flew into a rage. "Ling Chen, you..."

"Cousin Lin, that's enough. It's time to go."

Hearing Nanrong Wanqing's voice coming from behind her, Su Lin shot another vicious glare at Ling Chen and stomped her foot angrily. "You better remember this; I'll teach you a lesson in the future!" With that, she irately walked back to Nanrong Wanqing's side and pushed her wheelchair outside.

"Bro Ling, you're incredible! You're the only one who actually dares to talk to Miss Su like that! Miss Su is well-known in the company for her temper, so you're definitely the first to talk back to her."

Ling Chen only nonchalantly laughed in response.

She was only a woman, what's there to be afraid of?

Back at a private conference room that only the company executives could access, Su Lin was pouting angrily as she fumed with anger. "Wanqing, you saw what happened just now. That bastard is too evil. I can't take this lying down!"

"So? What are you planning to do?"

"Fire him! I must fire him! We can't keep this kind of scumbag hoodlum in the company?"

"Hoodlum?"

Nanrong Wanqing looked Su Lin over and curiously asked, "How do you know he's a hoodlum?"

"I... That kind of sneaky and uncouth person, you just need to look at him to see that he's not anything good. If he isn't a hoodlum, what else could he be?"

Listening to Su Lin's obstinate reply, Nanrong Wanqing only lightly shook her head.

"Alright, stop being so angry. I'll send an inquiry to the HR department and find out how exactly he got into the company."

Half an hour later. In the office on the topmost floor of the headquarters, Nanrong Wanqing was looking contemplatively at Liu Kun.

"Uncle Liu, you arranged for Ling Chen to enter the company?"

"Yes, it was me."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"Young Miss, I didn't want to trouble you with this kind of trivial matter."

Su Lin unhappily grumbled, "Uncle Liu, how can we just recruit any random bastard into the company? I don't care. We can't keep him in the company."

"And Young Miss, your intentions are?"

Nanrong Wanqing gave a crisp reply. "The security department isn't lacking in personnel right now."

"Young Miss, I'm afraid that we temporarily cannot fire Ling Chen, unless he severely breaches our regulations?"

"And why is that so?"

"Old Master was the one who ordered it."

Hearing this, Su Lin was stunned, forgetting about her anger for a moment. She did not expect her grandfather to give the command.

Nanrong Wangqing could only sigh bitterly, seemingly having come to some sort of understanding, she nodded her head. "Alright, I understand. Uncle Liu, you can leave now."

"Yes, Young Miss."

Watching as Liu Kun left the office, Su Lin pulled a sour face. "Wanqing, what do we do now?"

"This is one of Grandpa's arrangements. I can't do anything about it either."

"Wanqing, you're so smart, you must have a solution!"

Su Lin was afraid of being rejected and coyly tugged at Wanqing's hand. "We're sisters, aren't we? You must help me."

Nanrong Wanqing could only helplessly shake her head. Ever since the car accident, Su Lin had always been by her side and had the closest relationship with her. As long as Su Lin asked for something, she would never reject her requests.

"Alright, I'll give it a try then."

"Yay! That's awesome. Wanqing, with your intellect, you must have a way to crush him within minutes!"

Just as Su Lin was lost in her delusions of making Ling Chen suffer, the person in question was currently sitting in Wei Jun's office. His legs were crossed, and a toothpick was sticking out from the corner of his mouth. His arms were resting behind his head and he was leisurely enjoying the cold air from the air-conditioning.

"Big Brother Wei, when will you bring me to meet the captain?"

"I'm afraid that he thinks that you don't have the qualifications to meet him now."

"Why?"

"He… Right, I almost forgot to ask. Which squad were you assigned to?"

"What squad? No one mentioned anything of that sort to me."

"Then let me give you an overview first. Our security department has a total of two squads, Squad 1 and Squad 2. Squad 1 is under the jurisdiction of captain and is in charge of Young Miss's protection. On the other hand, I am in charge of Squad 2, we're responsible for the security of the building. Squad 1 consists solely of retired veterans and is only elites, which means their standards are extremely high. Moreover, their monthly salary is in the five digits, more than a few times ours." Speaking till this point, a trace of envy flashed across Wei Jun's face.

Ling Chen shook slightly. Judging from his remuneration, he must have been assigned to Squad 1.

Thinking of this point, he could not resist curling his mouth into a grin. That's good too. In the future, I will have more opportunities to meet Nanrong Wanqing.

When he got home later that afternoon, Ling Chen saw that it was still early; hence he gave Jiang Hao a call. Last time, he had promised to help train Jiang Hao's underlings. It has already been quite a few days, and he could not continue putting the matter off.

After arranging the time and location, he took a shower and tidied up his appearance in a jiffy, before leaving the apartment, a toothpick hanging from the side of his mouth. Although his monthly salary was thirteen thousand dollars, the money had not been wired to him yet. Thus, he could only continue his days of suffering.

A short while later, he arrived at an abandoned garage, which was precisely the one that he had a scuffle with Zhao Zhengxiong in previously.

When he entered, he saw more than thirty people waiting for him in the garage. They were all underlings who had been following Jiang Hao from the start, only Jiang Hao was missing ironically.

"Boss Chen."

"Boss Chen."

"..."

The crowd all called out in unison to greet him.

Ling Chen casually sat down and asked. "Where's Jiang Hao?"

"Boss Chen, Boss Hao and Boss Lil Hao are on their way and should be getting here soon."

A wave of confusion swept across Ling Chen's face. It's only been a few days, why was there a Boss Lil Hao from out of the blue?

"Bro Chen!"

Hearing someone greeting him, Ling Chen turned his head and saw Jiang Hao walking quickly into the garage. There was another man following closely behind him who turned out to be Nanrong Hao.

So Nanrong Hao was the Boss Lil Hao who the underlings were referring to.

"Since when were you two so chummy with each other?"

Ling Chen was confused. One was the esteemed young master of the Nanrong Family while the other was a ruffian from the old city district. Their status was as far apart as heavens and earth, so what was the commonality binding them together?

Nanrong Hao scratched his head and gave a sheepish smile.

"Bro Chen, things are like this..." Jiang Hao quietly whispered a few sentences in Ling Chen's ears.

A few days back, Jiang Hao went to a hair salon for some special services and coincidentally bumped into Nanrong Hao who had just settled a matter there.

With both of them sharing the same interests, it was no wonder that they became close to each other.

"Lil Hao, you are still the young master of the Nanrong Family. Why did you come running to the old city district to have fun, aren't your standards too low?"

Nanrong Hao made a face full of grievance and grimaced. "Bro Chen, that… my sister manages me rather strictly, so I don't dare go to those high-end establishments, just in case she finds me out. The old city district is a far safer place for me to go, thus I..."

Ling Chen revealed a face filled with understanding. Young people were hot-blooded after all, and this was the period where they developed a curiosity for the opposite gender. To have these biological impulses were perfectly normal, but Ling Chen still could not help criticising, "You brat, picking up all these bad habits from such a young age. Avoid coming to these shady establishments in the future. If you really want a girlfriend, then I think with your qualities, you should easily be able to get any woman you fancy."

"I was thinking the same thing, but my sister decreed that I cannot get a girlfriend before I hit the age of 22."

"You still have these sorts of rules?"

Ling Chen pulled a face and could only feel sympathy towards Ling Chen. It must be extremely tortuous to be governed so strictly by your sister.

"Bro Chen, why don't we get to the proper business first?" Jiang Hao expectedly asked.

"Why are you in such a rush? Could it be that someone is finding trouble with you?"

"Temporarily no. But I reckon that it'll happen sooner rather than later. Have you heard of Yang Sheng? Recently he's been making big moves, recruiting underlings from all over the place and even extended his greedy hands towards my territories. Two days ago, he got someone to talk terms with me, wanting me to become his subordinate. Naturally, I rejected him, but I don't think he'll just end things at that."
