Chapter 736: Chapter 736 This Is My Fairness
Hearing this, He Jingyao furrowed his brows slightly, glanced at his office, and spoke in a faint tone, “What’s the problem?”
“It’s a big problem!” Zhixi said carefully, “About that—your office, let me decorate it for you!”
He pinched her ear with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “If you want to spend more time with me, just say so. Why beat around the bush, hmm?”
“I wasn’t…” She started to explain, but then she thought again, since He Jingyao never noticed the secretary’s subtle intentions, why should she remind him, “So, can I stay in your office for half a day from now on?”
He Jingyao looked into her sparkling eyes, feeling a slight itch in his heart.
“Then you need to behave,” his voice was a bit husky.
Zhixi nodded with a smiley face.
After dinner, He Jingyao carried her to the resting room, mandating her to sleep.
Zhixi playfully resisted him for a while, but eventually could no longer fight off her fatigue and fell into a deep sleep.
He Jingyao watched her for a while, then quietly left the resting room and gently closed the door.
Outside, Qian Feifei was tidying up the messy dishes on the table. Upon seeing He Jingyao, she apologized in a low voice, “President, I’m sorry, I accidentally burnt the Young Mistress.”
He Jingyao looked at her indifferently, “Which department were you transferred from?”
Qian Feifei’s face turned completely white, “The… administrative department…”
“Then go back to your previous role,” He Jingyao said nonchalantly, casually unfastening the cufflinks on his right wrist. Chapters first released on NoveIＦire.net
Qian Feifei choked up, “President, I know the madam is very angry with me, but I am your secretary; my job is to serve you, and in this regard, I don’t think I did anything wrong. This decision… is unfair to me!”
He Jingyao was slightly surprised by her remarks, giving her an astonished look.
Noticing his gaze, Qian Feifei couldn’t help but straighten up, her face showing a streak of defiance.
“Qian… Feifei, right?” He Jingyao glanced at her name badge, then remembered her name, “You want fairness?”
Qian Feifei nodded vigorously, “I didn’t know she was your wife before…”
As she spoke, Qian Feifei’s tone was still somewhat acidic.
He Jingyao’s lips curved in a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “I am your superior, and now I think you are not suited for this position, so I am going to fire you; that is my fairness. If you are dissatisfied, you can certainly express your attitude by resigning.”
Qian Feifei’s face instantly lost all color.
“Get out, and take those little trinkets you brought with you,” He Jingyao said coldly as he walked to his desk, his dismissive tone laced with light mockery, “This is my office, Miss Qian.”
In fact, he had noticed the changes in the office, but since they hadn’t crossed his bottom line, he didn’t mind them.
His reason for firing Qian Feifei was not because she had burnt Zhixi. If it had really just been an accident, he wouldn’t have pursued it; Zhixi might be more forgiving than he was.
It was Qian Feifei’s attitude that he found repulsive.
Eventually, Qian Feifei left in tears, and not long after, Adam came in to apologize, “President, it’s my fault. The secretary team was short-staffed recently, and the administrative department recommended Qian Feifei, so I let her come over.”
