Jiang Shutong felt her blood rush to her head when she saw the scene before her.

She stepped forward to help Liu Guixiang up, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Liu Guixiang shook off her hand. "What am I doing? You've blocked me. My family is so poor we can't even afford to eat. All four of us are starving, so I had no choice but to come to your company..."

Bai Ruwei's gloating voice rang out, "Oh dear, Jiang Shutong, I never expected you to be such a cold-blooded person, not even caring about your own mother. Let me remind you, neglecting your elderly parents is a crime..."

Among the onlookers, some whispered among themselves, "Yeah, to avoid supporting his elderly parents, he actually blocked his own mother's number."

"I always thought Jiang Shutong was a very responsible person, I never would have guessed she was this kind of person."

"You can't say that. Perhaps she was exploited by her family of origin. Her mother doesn't seem like a simple person at all..."

As more and more people gathered, Liu Guixiang wailed even louder, "His father has been paralyzed in a wheelchair for decades, and I've raised three children all by myself with great difficulty. Do you know how hard it was for me...?"

The way everyone looked at Jiang Shutong suddenly became even more complicated, as if they were looking at an ingrate.

Jiang Shutong dug her nails into her palms, her chest heaving with anger.

She would never give me any more money.

She has given me enough over the years since I graduated, which is why I have no savings now.

"What are you all doing gathered here?" Sun Yuanjing pushed through the crowd and said to everyone, "Disperse, everyone, get ready for work!"

Although the crowd that had gathered to watch the spectacle was reluctant to leave, they had seen enough of the excitement and gradually departed.

Bai Ruwei was the only one who hadn't left. She glanced at Jiang Shutong with a gloating look and then said, "Manager Sun, Jiang Shutong's personal matters have affected our company's image. I suggest we fire her immediately."

Jiang Shutong quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Manager Sun, I'll have her leave right away..."

Liu Guixiang immediately shouted, "I'm not leaving."

She then looked at Sun Yuanjing, "You're her boss, right? Perfect, you can keep an eye on her. If she doesn't give me my living expenses for even a day, I'll come and cause trouble every day!"

"No need." Sun Yuanjing said coldly, "Jiang Shutong, your personal affairs have seriously affected the company's image and your colleagues' work. From now on, you are dismissed. Don't come to work starting tomorrow."

Jiang Shutong looked at Sun Yuanjing in disbelief, "Manager Sun, no, I don't accept this..."

Upon hearing that her arch-rival had been fired, Bai Ruwei was practically jumping for joy. She snorted, "Jiang Shutong, Manager Sun did the right thing! Don't you think about it? If your mother keeps coming here to cause trouble every day, how can our colleagues concentrate on work? You've ruined our company's image..."

"It's settled then. Go to the HR department now to process your resignation." Sun Yuanjing said this and strode into the company.

Bai Ruwei glared smugly at Jiang Shutong before leaving as well.

Liu Guixiang, who was sitting on the ground, was dumbfounded.

Jiang Shutong looked down at her with a mocking gaze, "Are you satisfied now? I've been fired, so even if you make a scene in front of me every day, it won't do you any good..."

With no one around to watch, Liu Guixiang stopped making a scene. She dusted herself off and stood up, somewhat disgruntled. "Your boss is so heartless! They just fired you like that?"

She pursed her lips and continued, "If you ask me, you must have been performing poorly all along. Your boss has been wanting to fire you for a long time, and now he's just found an excuse. You can't blame me for this..."

Jiang Shutong looked at her coldly, "I'm going to go through the resignation procedures. If you want to cause trouble, then keep causing trouble here."

After saying that, she turned and went inside.

Liu Guixiang could only leave in anger.

Jiang Shutong used to give her family 8,000 yuan every month, but her two sons were money-devouring beasts who spent money very quickly, especially her younger son, who would ask her for money every few days.

Therefore, she did not save any money.

Wang Dahai has been urging her to return the 20,000 yuan every day for the past few days, but Jiang Shutong not only failed to send the money back on time this month, but also blocked her. So she had no choice but to come here to make a scene.

Unexpectedly, this also caused my daughter to lose her job.

This makes it even harder to pay back the 20,000 yuan...

After joining the company, Jiang Shutong went straight to the office of the planning department manager.

"Manager Sun, I admit I was wrong, but does that warrant firing me?"

She is not convinced.

Sun Yuanjing didn't even look up. "Get out. I was just lying to your mother about firing you... but you need to make sure that nothing like this happens again..."

Jiang Shutong was taken aback at first, then quickly nodded and said, "Okay, I promise, there will never be a next time."

"Thank you, Manager Sun!"

She was truly grateful to Sun Yuanjing for helping her out of that predicament.

She was so angry that her mind went blank, and she couldn't think of any way to get her mother to leave, so she was stuck there.

After leaving Manager Sun's office and returning to my workstation, I discovered that Bai Ruwei had already spread the news of Jiang Shutong's dismissal to everyone.

Bai Ruwei had even hurriedly packed all her things into a cardboard box.

Xu Qiaoxin walked anxiously to her side, her face full of indignation, and said, "Shu Tong, you're a key member of our planning department. How could Manager Sun fire you just like that?"

Jiang Shutong gave her a reassuring look, "I'm fine, don't worry."

Bai Ruwei, her high heels clicking, was carrying her things to Jiang Shutong's workstation. Seeing Jiang Shutong enter, she chuckled and said, "Hurry up and pack your things and get out of here. This workstation is mine from now on."

Jiang Shutong's workstation is excellent; it's well-lit, and no one can see her slacking off while working from this spot.

She's wanted this for a long time.

Jiang Shutong slowly walked to her workstation and sat down.

Looking at the unfamiliar things on her desk, she frowned. "How come my desk is covered in so much junk after I've only been gone a short while..."

After saying that, she stood up and picked up the thermos, storage box, notebook, and makeup box that didn't belong to her on the table, and threw them all into the trash can.

She clapped her hands. "Finally, I feel refreshed."

As he spoke, he neatly arranged his belongings back in their original positions from the cardboard box.

Bai Ruwei angrily exclaimed, "Jiang Shutong, how dare you throw my things away!"

Jiang Shutong shrugged innocently. "So those were yours? Then how did they end up on my desktop?"

As she spoke, she slowly turned on her computer screen. "Excuse me, I have to go back to work."

Bai Ruwei quickly retrieved her belongings from the trash can.

Looking at Jiang Shutong's feigned focus on her work, she felt disdain. She was just staying for an extra month to hand over her work; what was there to be proud of?
