Ruochi had no idea what was going on at all.
Like a thief, he tiptoed out of the office.
The elevator doors had just opened when he bumped into Li Rui, who was rushing out.
The two almost collided.
"Can't you see? You're so careless!"
Ruochi was embarrassed. "Sorry, Mr. Li. I was in such a hurry that I didn't see clearly."
"I thought you were Jingyu's capable assistant. But in my opinion, you're not that capable! You're young and able-bodied, yet you just rely on Jingyu for a salary. Aren't you ashamed?" Li Rui sneered unhappily.
"Mr. Li, if you doubt my ability, you can go and complain about me in front of the Second Master. You can say or scold whatever you like."
The polite smile on Ruochi's face disappeared instantly. All that remained was the coldness in his eyes. "But now you're getting in the way of my work. Could you move aside? The elevator doors are about to close."
"How dare you talk back to me, a low - level worker?"
Li Rui shouted angrily, his beard and eyes bulging. This shout attracted many onlookers, who came and stood at the glass door of the office area to watch.
"What's going on?"
"Seems like Assistant Ruochi is arguing with Mr. Li from Juanyi."
"My goodness, he's so bold!"
"Bold enough to argue with Assistant Ruochi."
Before Bo Jingyu became the president of the Bo Corporation, there was a rumor, and its credibility was 99%. The remaining 1% was because people hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
Qianli and Ruochi were his personally - selected capable assistants.
They were good - looking and had great figures.
Most importantly, they were both retired top - level special forces soldiers.
What kind of big scenes hadn't they seen?
Even if they didn't work for the Bo Corporation or under Bo Jingyu, and just took a casual job, their income would be better than Li Rui's.
Everyone in the company knew that Qianli had a bad temper.
But Ruochi always seemed to be smiling and silly. No one had ever seen him lose his temper. But usually, when people like him got angry, even ten bulls couldn't hold them back.
Now that this good show was right in front of them, how could the onlookers let it go easily? They didn't take out their phones to film because they were afraid of Bo Jingyu. Otherwise, they would have uploaded it to the Internet and discussed it excitedly in minutes.
If it weren't for Bo Jingyu's personal order, Ruochi really wanted to quit.
He wondered if the old master, when he knew that Li Rui was such a mean - spirited and snobbish man, would have jumped out of his bed in anger.
"If I remember correctly, you came here this time because of your sons, right? One was framed during a promotion and lost his job, and the other drunk - drove and killed a pregnant woman and her unborn child. And..."
"Shut up! Shut up!"
Li Rui shouted angrily and nervously, and couldn't help but glance around.
The onlookers were whispering in surprise.
He felt so ashamed!
The perfect image he had painstakingly built was now completely destroyed in public. He blushed and gritted his teeth.
Ruochi sneered. "What? Compared to me, a useless little minion, your family, which tries to climb up with the help of the Second Master, doesn't seem much better. How pitiful."
"I warn you. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll fire you!" Li Rui still dared to threaten in a low voice, even though his legs were shaking with fear.
He was a typical one who refused to admit defeat even when he was in a weak position.
"Then let's talk about something else."
Ruochi smiled calmly. "Your daughter's design draft has been rejected."
"What?!"
"The Second Master just gave the order. Since you're here in the company, I don't have to make a trip. Please tell Miss Five to work overtime and redesign it today. She must submit the draft before tomorrow afternoon."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and was about to leave happily.
"Still watching? Don't you have work to do?"
The onlookers quickly returned to their posts.
"Hey! Wait!"
Li Rui was so angry that he grabbed Ruochi's arm.
"You're so heartless! After all, my daughter is Jingyu's fiancée! Don't you take me seriously at all? I'm Jingyu's future father - in - law! My status is much higher than yours!"
"What's all the noise about?"
Bo Jingming came out of the elevator, frowning at this farce.
"Sir." Ruochi put away his naughty attitude and nodded in greeting.
"Oh, my in - law! You're finally here. Look at these people in your company. They're just like snakes and wolves. They're going to drive me crazy!"
Li Rui's overbearing attitude just now instantly changed. He cried and looked as if he had suffered a great deal of injustice.
"What happened?" Bo Jingming really didn't like his way of getting too familiar.
He even subconsciously kept a bit of distance from him.
But Li Rui was not observant at all. All he did was move closer to complain, without even noticing the other's slight expression of not wanting to talk to him.
Ruochi briefly explained the situation, and Li Rui added some exaggeration.
"He's so bold! Not only does he not use respectful language, but he also talks back to me in a bad tone! In - law, are you going to take care of this or not?" His tone was like giving an order.
You have to take care of this matter, whether you like it or not.
Bo Jingming was instantly angry. He stared at Li Rui with cold eyes and asked,
"Mr. Li, what are you doing here at the Bo Corporation?"
This question made Li Rui stunned for a moment.
"Um... I... I came to ask Jingyu for a favor."
Then he felt it was inappropriate and added with an awkward smile, "After all, we'll be a family in the future. It's okay to help each other."
Ruochi complained in his heart.
A family? It's just an engagement. Does he really think he's the emperor? Calling himself in - law all the time. Isn't he ashamed?
Bo Jingming could guess something from his expression.
"Let's go to the office and talk. There are too many people here and it's easy to spread rumors." He looked at Ruochi. "You're Jingyu's assistant, right? Come with us too."
"Um, this... Isn't it inappropriate to have an outsider?"
Li Rui looked embarrassed and didn't want to make a fool of himself anymore.
"An outsider? Mr. Li's words are really interesting," Bo Jingming looked back with an unfathomable smile. "Then, in that case, isn't someone who is arguing with our company at the door of the Bo Corporation even more of an outsider?"
"Um, I..." He was speechless.
He even had nowhere to vent his anger and didn't dare to refute.
He thought that with Bo Yanhai lying in the hospital bed, he could get some benefits.
He even ambitiously wanted to gradually swallow up the Bo Corporation from the inside.
But he never expected that there was still Bo Jingming.
Now, all his plans were ruined.
"Mr. Li, please?" Ruochi looked at him with a half - smile.
"I don't need your reminder." Li Rui followed them angrily.
The door of the office opened, and three people came in.
Bo Jingyu stopped his hand on the keyboard and quickly stood up.
"Father? Why are you here?"
"Your future father - in - law has something urgent to talk to you about. We met at the door, so we came together." Bo Jingming sat on the sofa on his own.
