Chapter 291: Chapter 244: Striving to Adapt, Sect Discord (Request for Monthly Tickets)_3
1111th floor of the Oasis Group.
President Wang listened to Zhang Yu’s request and casually asked, “Is this your friend?”
“It’s a small matter, I’ll have someone check it for you immediately.”
Originally thinking the matter would be very troublesome, Zhang Yu felt slightly relieved upon hearing President Wang’s words.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, “In Kunxu, you need to have money and power to protect yourself and take care of the people around you…”
But moments later, President Wang frowned and shook his head at Zhang Yu, “It’s no good, it’s already been bought.”
Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback, “Bought?”
President Wang nodded and pointed at the sky, “Up there, a customer from the demon lineage bought a large batch of flesh as food, and your friend’s body is among them. It’s already been shipped to the second floor.”
Zhang Yu quickly said, “Can it be returned?”
President Wang was slightly puzzled, “What are you… saying?”
Zhang Yu said, “Can you contact the customer to get the body back…”
Before Zhang Yu could finish speaking, he suddenly felt President Wang’s aura change.
The previous aura of peace, kindness, and purity gradually vanished, replaced by an overwhelming chill, as if a dangerous beast was coldly staring at Zhang Yu.
“Zhang Yu, business is business, and the goods shipped… you want me to ask the customer for them back? What are you thinking?”
Feeling the chill emanating from the other, Zhang Yu’s mind conjured Zhao Tianxing’s image, and he gritted his teeth and said, “I can compensate…”
President Wang said indifferently, “Is this a matter of mere money? Asking the customer to return it, what reason should I give for doing that?”
“In business, I always keep my word. Shipped goods… unless there are quality issues, I will never take them back.”
Zhang Yu withstood the pressure coming from the other and continued, “I’ll go apologize to the customer, he’s my good friend, I can’t watch him be eaten…”
President Wang said indifferently, “So what if he gets eaten? I’ve seen the profile of this Zhao… Zhao Tianxing, does he have any value? So what if such a friend gets eaten? You should make fewer friends in the future.”
He continued, “Zhang Yu, I’ll teach you a saying today.”
“In this world, only by eating well can you become strong.”
“Poor people spend their lives enduring hardship, only able to eat the bitterness of suffering.”
“If you want to be a person of power like me, you must learn to eat people.”
Seeing Zhang Yu wanted to speak, President Wang impatiently said, “Out!”
“Understand your own status.”
“You’re damn well taking my money.”
“When it’s not harming company interests, I can give you face.”
“But if you hinder the company’s operations, then leave, don’t appear before me again.”
Zhang Yu watched President Wang in surprise, apparently not expecting such a furious demeanor.
President Wang snorted coldly, “Still standing there doing what?”
The next moment, a flash of golden light, countless divine power hands had already dragged Zhang Yu out, directly throwing him out of the office.
Outside the office, General Manager Chi He was used to it, even though President Wang was very good to his subordinates, sometimes jokingly asking for red packets was fine.
But if someone made him unhappy, especially when it involved company interests, then beating, scolding, and humiliating were very normal.
Only before, Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were too favored, and such things hadn’t happened yet.
Chi He walked up, patted Zhang Yu’s shoulder, and said, “Nothing you say matters when President Wang is angry; just take the scolding obediently.”
“In a few days when President Wang calms down, you can come apologize. He still appreciates you and won’t stay angry with you forever.”
But Zhang Yu suddenly asked, “Is there really no way for my friend?”
Chi He was momentarily stunned, and with a helpless smile said, “Let him become a soul cultivator.”
Exiting the Oasis Building, Zhang Yu looked at the vibrating phone; it was a call from Zhao Tianxing’s mother.
But he suddenly didn’t know how to tell her.
“I’m sorry, Lao Zhao.”
Zhang Yu slowly clenched his fists, “I seem to… be unable to save you.”
At the same time, the Golden Jade Filling Hall Technique in his mind began to slow down, its mental method effect seemingly regressing at this moment.
No matter how he contemplated the cash number in his mind, it seemed unable to bring him the previous confidence and courage anymore.
And as Zhang Yu was on his way home, his phone suddenly vibrated.
“Golden Core Great Cultivator Master Xinghuo has entered within a thousand meters of you. He has mistakenly killed 14 people in the past month and has paid all fines and compensations; please be careful with your words and actions, avoid provocation.”
