“Wei, what the hell are you doing?”
Zhou Wenxiang was utterly confused. In his mind, Wei Facai was an honest person; otherwise, he wouldn’t have considered targeting him, firmly believing that he could easily be bullied!
But now this “honest person” had suddenly “gone crazy”!
“It’s the new boss’s first day, and you’re not behaving well to make a good impression!” Zhou Wenxiang scolded with a tense face.
“Shut up!!”
Wei Facai gave Zhou Wenxiang a disdainful glance. Although he didn’t know Zhang Ying had colluded with Zhou Wenxiang to slander him, he could feel that Zhou Wenxiang definitely hadn’t done anything good in the situation because he kept trying to convince him to admit to the issue and resign quickly.
Wei Facai might be honest, but he wasn’t stupid. He had a clear idea of who was helping him and who was trying to sabotage him.
So, Wei Facai didn’t show Zhou Wenxiang any pleasant face either!
A good brother has become the hotel boss!!
Why would he put up with this humiliation??
“Wei Facai, have you lost your damn mind!!”
Zhou Wenxiang was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard Wei Facai speak to him in that tone, and then he cursed back, “What are you freaking out about! I’m doing this for your own damn good!!”
The discordant voices of the two immediately drew the attention of everyone present.
Hotel General Manager Zhang Changjiang’s face was ashen. This was supposed to be a ceremony to welcome the new boss, and his employees were cursing at each other—did they no longer want their jobs!
But the problem was, if you don’t want to work, don’t drag me down with you!!
“Zhou Wenxiang!”
“What are you doing!!”
Zhang Changjiang scolded with a dark face.
“Uh, I…”
Zhou Wenxiang had also been impulsive, forgetting his current predicament. After hearing Zhang Changjiang’s scolding, he was immediately dumbfounded.
He then realized he had lost his composure!
This was the new boss’s first visit to the hotel, and he had become the center of unwanted attention!
Zhou Wenxiang scratched his head awkwardly, but he didn’t want to take the blame alone. He pointed at Wei Facai and said, “Mr. Zhang, it was Wei Facai who suddenly went crazy; I was trying to stop him!”
“He started shouting all of a sudden, I suspect there’s something wrong with his brain!!”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Changjiang and others immediately turned their gaze back to Wei Facai.
In fact, Zhang Changjiang didn’t even recognize Wei Facai. The latter was recruited by Liu Lu and was just a minor supervisor who didn’t qualify to attend meetings.
Thus, Zhang Changjiang had no impression of Wei Facai at all. With a serious face, he asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
“Are you feeling unwell??”
Zhang Changjiang was experienced too. He was actually giving Wei Facai an excuse. If Wei admitted to feeling unwell, it could just be overlooked as a minor incident, and likely the new boss wouldn’t mind it.
But if someone was yelling for no reason, the new boss would definitely be very annoyed!
“No, I’m just happy.”
Wei Facai said with a naïve grin on his face.
“Happy??”
Zhang Changjiang’s face contorted, and he felt an urge to throttle Wei Facai.
Who the hell hired this blockhead??
He subconsciously looked towards Liu Lu, the Vice President in charge of personnel, naturally expecting her to handle the situation.
At this moment, Liu Lu was also baffled. In her impression, Wei Facai was very steady, which was why she recruited him to the hotel.
She couldn’t help but recall the conversation they had earlier—Wei Facai, too, seemed emotionally unstable then. Had she been wrong about him?
Was Wei Facai not wronged, but instead suffering from a split personality??
Liu Lu was about to ask, but the new boss suddenly spoke up. He waved at Wei Facai and chided with a smile, “Fachai, is this how you welcome me?!”
Uh???
Freaking hell!!!
What’s going on??
Fachai???
The new boss was actually calling Wei Facai “Fachai”???
Yang Hao’s “Fachai” petrified everyone present!
They all stared in utter amazement.
People glanced between Wei Facai and the new boss, their eyes filled with incredulity and shock!!
If it was just knowing the new boss, everyone wouldn’t be reacting this way. But the new boss called him Fachai!
This indicated that their relationship was anything but shallow!!
The most shocked person, of course, was Zhou Wenxiang. The new boss was actually calling Wei Facai “Fachai”—how surreal was that!
Thinking back to how he treated Wei Facai just a moment ago, he began to sweat profusely.
No wonder Wei Facai started yelling all of a sudden. Was he about to turn his fortunes around?
Yang Hao usually called Wei Facai “Wei,” only calling him “Fachai” in jest or teasing.
But Yang Hao’s “Fachai” this time was heard by everyone present; he wanted everyone to know his relationship with Wei Facai. Naturally, Wei Facai’s status in the hotel would be secure from here on, and his work would face no resistance.
Who the hell would dare trouble the boss’s brother?
That’s practically asking to be fired! Stay updated with empire
Wei Facai hurriedly ran up to Yang Hao and then swung his fleshy fist, punching Yang on the shoulder, “Hao, how did you become our hotel’s boss?”
Seeing this scene, Zhang Changjiang, Liu Lu, and a group of executives were dumbfounded once again. The way Yang had just addressed Wei as “Fachai” could have been taken as a joke.
But judging by Wei Facai’s response and Yang Hao’s reaction, the two were definitely good brothers with a close relationship.
A hotel’s new boss and an ordinary employee turned out to be good brothers, Zhang Changjiang’s mouth twitched slightly, wondering how two people of such disparate status had managed to become good brothers.
However, that question wasn’t particularly important. What mattered was to forge a good relationship with Wei Facai!
No matter who he was before.
From this moment on, he was Zhang Changjiang’s sworn brother!
Yes, that was it!
As everyone knows, I have a brother named Wei Facai!
At that moment, Yang Hao patted Wei’s solid shoulder gently, “Just tell me if you’re surprised or not?”
“It’s such a pleasant surprise!”
Wei Facai wore a grin, thinking he had misunderstood the situation just now.
“Come on, let’s go upstairs and talk!”
Yang Hao wrapped his arm around Wei Facai’s shoulder and headed straight to the elevator, with Zhang Changjiang, Liu Lu, and other executives accompanying them on both sides.
Meanwhile, Liu Lu made a startling discovery—this new boss seemed to be the same “master” as her best friend Ma Tianjiao’s.
Liu Lu had seen Yang Hao’s ID photo online, and at first glance upon meeting him, she found him vaguely familiar. Now she finally remembered!
They had to be the same person, right?
Liu Lu wasn’t entirely sure, as those ID photos only showed the upper body, and that photo was likely not recent.
At this moment, Liu Lu also remembered sending him a sexy photo only the day before!
But Liu Lu was not the kind of woman to be coy. Instead of feeling a shred of shyness, she was somewhat excited.
Yesterday, she had been thinking about snagging her friend’s master and becoming the master’s wife, but Yang Hao hadn’t paid much attention to her, leaving her feeling downcast.
Yet, today she had met the man himself!
The opportunity was right here!!
With this thought, Liu Lu sneakily snapped a side profile picture of Yang Hao and sent it to Ma Tianjiao: “Is this your master?”
Officer Ma was probably at work and didn’t reply immediately.
It wasn’t until they all took the elevator up that Liu Lu received a reply from Ma Tianjiao: “You’re already getting cozy with him??”
With affirmative response, Liu Lu couldn’t help but feel elated and immediately sent a boastful message to her best friend.
Niuhulu·Lu: “Gotcha!”
Ma Tianjiao: “Typical playboy!”
Niuhulu·Lu: “Next time we meet, call me the master’s wife!”
After sneaking in two messages, Liu Lu pocketed her phone and focused all her attention on Yang Hao.
The new boss was currently chatting with Wei Facai, clearly very familiar with each other.
Liu Lu couldn’t help but feel relieved about her handling of the Wei Facai incident. If she had just listened to Zhou Wenxiang and Zhang Ying’s side of the story and fired Wei Facai outright, her days at Clyde Hotel would most likely be numbered!
Although Liu Lu’s family wasn’t particularly distressed over a job, the opportunity to interact with the boss provided a chance to become the master’s wife!
If she left, she would lose the chance to further communicate with the CEO. On Weixun, she had already felt his aloofness or perhaps it was because he had so many attractive women around him that he didn’t care much about her.
But staying on at the job was different. She had legitimate reasons to interact and also to show her capabilities at work. This should be a plus, even considered to have a buff attribute.
Conquering a capable female subordinate would surely give a boss a sense of achievement.
Lobby on the first floor.
Zhou Wenxiang, being at his level, naturally couldn’t follow upstairs. He leaned against the elevator wall, his face an ashen color, breathing heavily.
“Brother Zhou, what do we do now?”
“It seems that Wei Facai is quite familiar with the new boss!” Zhang Ying weakly approached and asked.
“What else can we do? We must stick to what we said before!”
“Otherwise, we’re in danger!” Zhou Wenxiang said with a grave expression.
“But if Wei Facai and the new boss are so close, surely they can’t fire him now, right?” Zhang Ying asked in a low voice.
“Stop thinking about firing him for now, let’s focus on self-preservation!” Zhou Wenxiang said, furrowing his brow, “As long as you stick to the previous statement, even if Wei Facai and the new boss are close, at most the new boss won’t deal with him, but it’s unlikely that he would fire you because of it. The new boss must not find out we framed Wei Facai. If he does, we’re all doomed.
You get what I’m saying?”
“Got it!”
Zhang Ying nodded solemnly, though she was incredibly nervous inside—she had been very anxious when answering questions in Liu Lu’s office.
If the new boss personally questioned her, she really didn’t know if she could bluff her way through.
“Go back to work, and don’t let people think we’re too close,” Zhou Wenxiang advised before adjusting his demeanor and striding back to his office.
Zhang Ying hung her head and returned to the hotel’s front desk. But just as she took her position behind the desk, the phone rang, startling her due to her nervousness.
She took a deep breath and answered, “Hello, front desk.”
“Zhang Ying, come to the president’s office immediately!”
The call was filled with Liu Lu’s icy voice.
