“Yes.” Lin Xinxin turned around and walked out. In no time, everyone else walked in.
Dongfang Yu looked coldly at them and said icily, “You’ve all followed me for many years and know my way of doing things. This time when things went wrong, none of you by stepping forward to take responsibility. I’m very disappointed in all of you!”
All the secretaries guiltily bowed their heads.
Dongfang Yu, not wanting to waste any more words with them, spoke indifferent and mercilessly, “Since none of you are admitting to the deed, then you can all just leave! Today, there will be others who will replace you. Rest assured, since the company is the one terminating your contracts, you won’t lose a single penny of your severance pay!”
“Presi…” Several secretaries instantly turned pale.
Where could they find such good jobs once they left ‘Dongfang’?
Nevertheless, no matter what they said, no matter how they pleaded, Dongfang Yu was determined to dismiss them.
This incident was obviously leaked by a mole with the intention to strike a heavy blow to ‘Dongfang’ during its most crucial period.
Unable to identify who the mole was, Dongfang Yu had no choice but to dismiss everyone.
That’s how he worked: he’d rather wrongfully dismiss three thousand people than mistakenly spare even one.
The secretaries knew his ruthlessness. Seeing his resolute attitude, they realized there was absolutely no room for negotiation.
Lin Xinxin had assumed that her dismissal was inevitable. As she sadly lowered her gaze, she suddenly heard Dongfang Yu’s voice.
“Director Lin, although you were negligent this time, you were brave enough to take responsibility on your own accord. Therefore, I’ll spare you from being dismissed, and transfer you back to the Design Department. Do you have any objections?”
Lin Xinxin looked up in surprise and disbelief, “No, I have no objection!”
She was beyond happy that she didn’t have to be dismissed.
However, deep down, she felt a hint of sadness because she would not be able to work closely with him anymore…
“If there are no objections, then everyone out!”
“President, this is not fair…” Someone couldn’t resist protesting.
Dongfang Yu shot him a cold look, “Is it fair for you to evade responsibility? If you still want to make a living in C City, you’d better get smarter!”
Otherwise, he could directly blacklist this person, leaving him out of any companies’ hiring lists.
Intimidated by his threats, who dared to say anything else? They had no choice but to accept their punishment.
As soon as Lin Xinxin and the others left, Chai Xiyang couldn’t hold back and asked, “Yu, you know that Xin didn’t do this. Why are you punishing her?”
Dongfang Yu heard the dissatisfaction in Xiyang’s words. He was obviously defending Lin Xinxin.
“She really doesn’t fit the role of secretary director,” He explained mildly.
“Then why did you appoint her in the first place?”
It was merely because he momentarily felt sorry for her and wanted to make it up to her.
But now, he could see that she wasn’t suitable for the position, and it was better to transfer her away.
At the same time, he regretted allowing his compassion to cloud his judgment and bringing Lin Xinxin by his side.
She was too young and incapable; it was inappropriate for her to assume such an important position, both from a professional and personal standpoint.
Dongfang Yu warned himself silently to never make such a mistake again.
However, in this instance, Lin Xinxin did make a blunder. She should have reported the discovery of the divorce agreement to him immediately, but she didn’t. Therefore, it was imperative for her to be disciplined.
What Lin Xinxin didn’t know was that her deliberate concealment completely depleted all the goodwill and compassion Dongfang Yu held for her.
Not wishing to explain anything further, Dongfang Yu changed the subject, “Concerning this incident, do you have any better solutions?”
