Sooner or later, you will have to pay for what you have done; fearing that Song Qian would vent her anger on Qiao Yingzi, Qiao Weidong chose to go upstairs to face her.

"The wind is shaky and the water is cold, and once the strong man goes, he will never return."

Fang Yifan followed behind him and recited these two sentences to set the mood.

"Fanfan, can you please hope for my well-being? I am going to die heroically, not to assassinate anyone."

Qiao Weidong said dissatisfiedly.

"Okay, I'll change it for you. Singing passionately in the streets of Yan, calmly serving as a prisoner of Chu. Drawing the sword into a piece, I will live up to my youth."

Seeing Qiao Weidong's dissatisfaction, Fang Yifan quickly made amends.

"This is Wang Xianzi's poem, used to describe my father. I think you don't want to live anymore."

It was a bit like trying to have fun in misery, and Qiao Yingzi also took the opportunity to find fault.

"Uncle Qiao, don't listen to Yingzi's nonsense. Although Wang Xianqun has fallen, his poem is really good. It is specially used to inspire people who are brave enough to sacrifice themselves, just like you now."

Flowered shirt, round glasses, doesn't he look like a traitor?

Taking the elevator was fast, and in less than a minute, the three of them arrived at Fang Yifan's house. It was Fang Yuan who opened the door, and the others were eating.

"Hey, is everyone eating?"

As soon as Qiao Weidong entered the room, he greeted with a playful smile.

"Mom, I'm back."

How happy she was when she went there, how nervous she is now. This is how Qiao Yingzi feels at the moment.

"Yingzi, have you eaten yet? Why don't you sit down and eat together?"

The one who spoke was Tong Wenjie. In her opinion, Yingzi was a good person. Even if she made mistakes, it was Qiao Weidong who brought her up. As for Fang Yifan, he deserved it. They are a family, why did you have to join in the fun?

"Thank you Aunt Tong, I've already eaten."

Qiao Yingzi answered obediently.

"Did you hear that? They've already had a feast at Lao Mo, so they don't even look down on us, the small vendors."

Song Qian is very harsh in her words.

"Song Qian, it's all my fault, not Yingzi's. She didn't plan to go to the planetarium originally, but I wanted to see her performance on stage, so I encouraged her."

Because he made so many mistakes, Qiao Weidong was very skilled at admitting them, especially when facing Song Qian.

"Now you know you're wrong, what were you doing before? I've told you so many times that we're in the third year of high school now, please don't disturb Yingzi and I's lives, okay?"

Song Qian still talked about the same old things, but after all, it was not her own home, so she restrained herself a little.

"Yes, yes, senior year is the time to study. I will pay attention next time. But what Gang Yingzi said was really good. I recorded it and will send it to you later."

Accepting things humbly and refusing to change is just basic practice for Qiao Weidong.

"Next time, do you want to have a next time?"

Song Qian couldn't stand Qiao Weidong's unruly behavior and became furious.

"Mom, don't get excited. In addition to giving a lecture today, I also communicated with the planetarium and will not go there anymore, so there will definitely not be a next time."

Afraid that her parents would really fight, Qiao Yingzi quickly stepped in and said.

"Song Qian, Yingzi already knows she was wrong, so don't be angry."

Tong Wenjie also quickly stood up to persuade them, saying that this was her home and it would be a shame to have a quarrel here.

Many hands make light work, and a fight ends quickly when many people try to stop it. Song Qian still had to give face to Tong Wenjie, and just like that, they passed the hurdle of the observatory.

.........

Fang Yuan was very proud during this period. He was about to achieve two of the three great joys for a middle-aged man: promotion, wealth, and death of his wife.

That day, he arrived at work on time as usual.

"Congratulations, Brother Fang. Mr. Yang is looking for you, probably to discuss a promotion."

"This is not nonsense, maybe it's something else."

Although Fang Yuan said this, the smile on his face had already betrayed him; the company had been rumored to have him promoted for a long time. He graduated from a prestigious university and was a long-time employee, so who else could be promoted in the legal department if not him?

"Fang Yuan is here, please take a seat."

As soon as Fang Yuan entered the door, Mr. Yang greeted him warmly and stood up to help pour tea.

"Boss Yang, I'll do it myself. I'll do it myself."

The way he looks respectful and courteous to others makes it seem like he really wants to promote himself.

"How are you doing recently? Are your parents okay?"

Without going straight to the topic, the two chatted about homework.

"It's over. I've basically recovered all the money. But my parents are still mad at me, blaming me for being so cruel to the scammer."

In addition to the first 200,000 yuan, Fang Yuan later gave his father another 300,000 yuan, making a total of 500,000 yuan.

According to the Criminal Law, if the amount of defrauded public or private property is relatively large, the offender shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall be fined or fined alone; if the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, the offender shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years, and shall be fined; if the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, the offender shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than ten years or life imprisonment, and shall be fined or have his property confiscated.

Five hundred thousand is a huge amount, so the ruthlessness Fang Yuan mentioned is not just talk.

"You are the only one who is rich and willful. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to do this."

There must be an excuse for taking consecutive leave. Mr. Yang also knew that Fangyuan made a fortune selling seals.

As for how to conduct sting operations to trap fraudsters, Fang Yuan only told his apprentice about it, and somehow, the news spread throughout the company.

"You know about the company merger, but there is a troublesome matter now. You should also take a look."

After chatting about family matters, they got down to business and Mr. Yang handed a document to Fang Yuan.

"This is?"

Fang Yuan frowned after only looking at it for two minutes.

“They also have a professional legal team, so we are faced with the problem of reducing staff.

Fang Yuan, you are an old employee, and I will not hide it from you; after the merger, they will be the main force, and according to their intention, they want to lay off our legal team."

"Boss Yang, but we..."

"Don't worry, just listen to me. After my persuasion, they finally compromised and gave us two options: lay off five junior employees or one leader."

"Boss Yang, what do you mean?"

The words were very clear and Fang Yuan understood them too.

"We are old friends. I give you the choice. You decide whether they stay or go..."

There are only 8 people in the legal team, and Fang Yuan is the leader; Mr. Yang’s words are very clear, either you leave or your subordinates leave.

In fact, Fang Yuan was able to get this option thanks to his recent series of operations. After all, no one wants to offend a rich man who knows the law.

Chapter 126 Forget it, cut yourself

In just one morning, the news that the legal team was going to lay off employees spread throughout the company.

Xiao Zhang: "Brother Fang, I have been with you since 2010. Even if I have no credit, I have worked hard. Please don't lay me off."

Xiao Guo: "Brother Fang, I heard that you moved to a new house. I've always wanted to visit you. Is it convenient for you today?"

Xiaomei: "Brother Fang, there's a new bar that opened in Houhai recently. It's pretty good. I want to go there tonight. Can you accompany me?"

……

In the afternoon, similar WeChat messages never stopped appearing on Fangyuan’s mobile phone.

"Old Joe, are you free?"

Having no experience in this area, Fang Yuan decided to listen to Qiao Weidong's advice, and the two of them agreed to meet at a restaurant near Fang Yuan's company.

"What's wrong with you? It's rare to see you like this. I have to take a picture of you as a souvenir."

Fang Yuan is an optimistic person with a constant smile on his face; it is rare to see him looking sad.

"Don't mention it, I'm in trouble..."

Then Fang Yuan started to complain to Qiao Weidong.

"That's good. You're taking advantage of others and still acting cute. Then Mr. Yang said he would give you a promotion."

"Deputy Director of Legal Affairs, that's considered a promotion."

"Just get a promotion. As for other people's lives, what does it have to do with you? It's the company that wants to lay off employees, not you who said that."

This matter seemed very simple to Qiao Weidong.

"But CEO Yang asked me to make a layoff list, and everyone under me knows about it. Do you think he is deliberately trying to make trouble for me?"

Fang Yuan had this suspicion, after all, the news spread too fast.

"He is giving you a chance to establish your authority, so don't be ungrateful;

The power of life and death, power that ordinary legal directors do not have; didn’t you also say that once the news spread, your subordinates rushed to flatter you;

Fire five, and the remaining ones will surely be grateful to you."

As a boss, Qiao Weidong looks at things at a different level than Fang Yuan, an employee.

"Then who do you think I should fire?"

This is the question Fang Yuan really wants to ask Qiao Weidong.

"Give me your phone, I'll help you with some advice." Qiao Weidong planned to decide whether they should stay or go based on the content of the WeChat messages they sent to Fang Yuan.

"This Xiao Zhang must be fired. He is acting like he has qualifications because he has been with you for a long time.

This little Guo is a bit interesting, to be confirmed;

Xiaomei? Fangyuan, this Xiaomei is a girl, right? This is a blatant hint. Are you going tonight? "

Qiao Weidong took the opportunity to joke.

"Xiao Zhang is my apprentice, and I can't fire him no matter who I am. Xiao Guo is indeed a bit cunning, but he just bought a house, so I understand that he feels pressured and wants to get close to me."

“What about Xiaomei? What is your relationship with this Xiaomei?

Men become bad when they have money. You just made some money and you're already acting like a bad guy?

Then I have to talk to Tong Wenjie about it. After all, we are brothers, and I can’t bear to see you make mistakes.”

Qiao Weidong looked like he was doing this for your own good.

"Xiaomei's family is not well off. Her parents favor boys over girls. She also has a very bad brother. It's not easy for her either."

"So you can't fire everyone, so why don't you just fire yourself?"

Qiao Weidong was just complaining casually, but Fang Yuan really listened to it.

"It's a good idea to fire myself."

After saying this, Fang Yuan nodded seriously.

"Are you stupid? You've worked so hard for more than ten years and finally got the position of legal director. Now you're firing yourself. Aren't you afraid that your Tong Wenjie will come after you?"

Seeing that Fang Yuan didn't seem to be joking, Qiao Weidong quickly reminded him.

"I'm just talking casually, just talking casually."

Although Fang Yuan said this, he was obviously moved and he probed Tong Wenjie that night.

"Alas, this person is always unhappy when he reaches middle age."

"If you have something to say, say it. If not, go to bed early. It's been a night. Who are you sighing for?"

Doesn’t Tong Wenjie understand her husband?

"Honey, didn't I tell you last time about our company's merger? I thought I'd get a promotion, but in the end, ugh... I might lose my job."

After staying up all night, Fang Yuan finally spoke.

"Unemployment? No way. Aren't you an old employee? You have a good relationship with Mr. Yang. No one can lay off you."

Tong Wenjie asked in confusion.

"The other company has a professional legal team, and our company's legal department will be laid off entirely."
