"Cheng Peng!"
Zhang Tiantian suddenly had an idea, a wicked smile on her face. "Aren't you quite loyal?"
"Should I show some mercy and give you a chance?"
"As long as you kneel down and kowtow an apology to us on behalf of Bai Zihe."
"This matter, it's not impossible to discuss!"
Chen Peng gritted his teeth.
Four years ago, when he worked for the Bai family, Bai Zihe had repeatedly given him kind instructions.
At that time, he had just arrived, and his salary was not high.
Once, there was a heavy rain in his hometown, and half of his old house collapsed. It was Bai Zihe who advanced him half a year's salary, allowing him to complete the repairs.
Otherwise, his family would have had to live in a cave.
Chen Peng had always kept these kindnesses in his heart.
At this moment, Chen Peng was about to kneel down, hoping these people would let Bai Zihe go.
At the critical moment, a hand stopped him.
It was Bai Zihe!
He looked coldly at Zhang Tiantian, Tan Jun, and the others, and said coldly, "I don't know if Chen Peng will be fired."
"But you..."
"Will definitely be fired!"
"Pfft—"
"I don't usually laugh, but I can't help it!"
"Bai Zihe, you want to laugh me to death, and then fantasize about succeeding me?"
"Bai Zihe, if you're not telling jokes at the Spring Festival Gala this year, I won't watch!"
"Oh no, my stomach hurts from laughing!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Who were they?
Employees of the Bai Corporation, who had already signed contracts. As soon as the Bai Corporation opened, they would take office, get a raise, get rich, and reach the pinnacle of their lives!
And Bai Zihe...
A young master from a ruined Bai family.
To put it bluntly, he was a stray dog!
Yet he dared to utter wild words, saying they would definitely be fired. It was the biggest joke in the world!
"Forget it!"
Zhang Tiantian suddenly sighed, feigning regret. "Bai Zihe, I didn't expect the downfall of the Bai family to affect you so much."
"You're almost out of your mind."
"I can't be bothered to argue with you."
Her words made it seem as if she was being benevolent.
Everyone burst into laughter.
Tan Jun shook his head, playing along. "Actually, it's normal."
"The Bai family used to be a prominent family in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but now they are nothing. We are high above, and he cannot easily reprimand us..."
"So, Bai Zihe couldn't accept it for a while, and it's understandable that he spoke wildly!"
Those former executives echoed, "Understandable, understandable!"
"He... just can't stand such a contrast!"
"He was a good person before, and now he's become a fool, tsk..."
Everyone mocked him.
Afterward, they didn't intend to stay any longer.
After all, Bai Zihe was already foolish, and they didn't need to waste their time.
However, before leaving, Zhang Tiantian said, "Bai Zihe, oh Bai Zihe..."
"The people you offended today are all future high-level executives of the Bai Corporation. On the day the Bai Corporation is officially established, your Bai family will not be able to get by in Suzhou and Hangzhou!"
"And Chen Peng!"
"You fat pig, you will pay for your words and deeds tonight sooner or later!"
Zhang Tiantian's words were filled with cold sarcasm and threats.
"Chen Peng, just wait."
"Chen Peng, we remember everything you said today!"
"Chen Peng..."
Every single one of them issued threats.
A group of people chatted and laughed, then swaggered away.
In the private room, Chen Peng's face turned extremely grim.
Bai Zihe, however, was unfazed and comforted Chen Peng, "Pengzi, don't pay attention to them. They won't be arrogant for long, and you won't be fired."
Chen Peng grunted, but his mind was elsewhere.
Bai Zihe asked again, "What's wrong with your sister's illness?"
Chen Peng's face immediately changed. "Brother Bai, let's talk another day."
"I need to go back and take care of my sister." He then added, "Sorry," and quickly left the private room.
This guy...
Still the same as before.
Watching his hurried back, Bai Zihe shook his head helplessly.
On the way home.
Bai Zihe saw a quiet bar called "Gardenia Blossoms" by the roadside.
He suddenly remembered that his mother loved gardenias the most when she was alive, and he couldn't help but walk in.
"Sir, what would you like to drink?"
Bai Zihe came back to his senses.
Since he was here, he might as well order a few drinks casually.
Sitting in the corner, enjoying the gentle breeze, Bai Zihe's thoughts drifted far away.
"Whoosh..."
Suddenly, a girl rushed over, hugged Bai Zihe's arm, and rested her head on his shoulder.
Bai Zihe was stunned.
