"What?!" Bai Yujiao slammed the table and stood up, glaring at Tang Ming. "Xiao Zheng resigned? Why didn't I receive a resignation letter? "
Tang Ming said helplessly, "The last time I visited him in the hospital, he told me the same thing. I tried to persuade him to stay, but he had already made up his mind — "
"Nonsense!" Bai Yujiao said unhappily. "Why would he resign for no reason? Didn't you convey my message to him? Or … did you have ulterior motives and wanted to replace him? "
"Of course not —" Tang Ming hurriedly defended himself with a serious expression. "Although Team One has more people than Team Two and is more capable than Team Two, I'm good friends with Xiao Zheng. However, Xiao Zheng and I were good friends. I was happy for him from the bottom of my heart that he could become a team leader. How could he do such a shameless thing? "
"Actually —" Tang Ming explained helplessly. "Xiao Zheng said he wanted to resign mainly because it's too dangerous to be a security guard. The injury this time almost cost him his life, so he retreated a little …"
"You're slandering me!"
Bang!
The office door was suddenly slammed open, and Xiao Zheng rushed in furiously. He pointed at Tang Ming's nose and scolded, "When did I say I wanted to resign? Retreat? Am I, Xiao Zheng, such a cowardly and incompetent person? The next time Big Boss is kidnapped, I will still be at the forefront without hesitation and help Big Boss solve his problems! Tang Ming, I treated you as a good friend. How can you slander me like this? "
Tang Ming's face immediately turned red, and he said awkwardly, "Why are you back? Didn't you say you were going to resign? "
"Of course, you want me to resign!" Xiao Zheng sneered. "When I resign, you want to be the leader of Team One, right? But don't worry, Captain Bai is very observant and has already seen through your wild ambition. Even without me, Xiao Zheng, in the Security Department, you can forget about being the leader of Team One! You should just give up on this idea! "
"—" Tang Ming could not even cry anymore.
"Alright. We're all colleagues, so don't be too harsh with your words. "Bai Yujiao tried to smooth things over. She looked at Xiao Zheng with a concerned expression and said in a friendly manner. "Xiao Zheng, why don't you rest for a few more days? Aren't you tired from coming to work so soon? "
"I'm fine!" Xiao Zheng shook his head with a strong sense of righteousness. "I haven't been able to eat or sleep well in the hospital for the past few days. I only hope to return to the team as soon as possible so that I can fight side by side with my colleagues on the frontline."
"Tang Ming, did you hear that?" Bai Yujiao glared at Tang Ming. "If you had one-tenth of Xiao Zheng's enthusiasm for work, I wouldn't have given Liu Qiming the responsibility of Team One!"
What — you're the one who's blind, and you want to push the blame on me?
Tang Ming felt that it was time for him to leave Xin Ao. Otherwise, wouldn't they be ostracized to death?
"Xiao Zheng. Come here. This is the letter of appointment from the higher-ups. "Bai Yujiao took out a document from the drawer and passed it to Xiao Zheng. "It was just sent to me this morning. I haven't had the time to read it yet. See if you're appointed as Team One's Leader. "
"Appointed as Team One's Leader?" Xiao Zheng was surprised. "Do we need the higher-ups to arrange this? Captain Bai, can't you make the decision? "
"Of course I can!" Bai Yujiao's eyes flashed as she said earnestly. "But you've become our Xin Ao's hero this time. The higher-ups have personally issued the letter of appointment to you. That's a sign of respect for you."
"Captain Bai, you should be the one to announce it." Xiao Zheng quickly waved his hand to reject the letter of appointment and said solemnly. "Without Captain Bai's guidance, how could I, Xiao Zheng, be where I am today?"
Bai Yujiao showed a satisfied expression and nodded lightly. "It's a good thing to know how to repay kindness. Alright, since you've said so, I'll announce it. "
After that, she opened the document and slowly read the letter of appointment.
"Deputy Leader of the Security Department?"
Bai Yujiao raised an eyebrow and said with a smile, "Xiao Zheng. The company has really treated you well. They actually promoted you to Deputy Leader of the Security Department. Work hard and you'll definitely be more successful than me in the future! "
Tang Ming was dumbfounded and asked, "The company appointed Xiao Zheng as Deputy Leader of the Security Department? My goodness — this is a meteoric rise, a meteoric rise to the heavens in a single bound! Even his salary has been doubled! "
Bai Yujiao gave Tang Ming a sidelong glance and said lightly, "If you can make a great contribution next time, I'll apply to the company to add you as Deputy Leader."
"Really?" Tang Ming asked excitedly.
"It's fake," Bai Yujiao said disdainfully. "Isn't setting up two Deputy Leaders weakening my authority as a Team Leader? What are you thinking about? "
Tang Ming shrank his neck and did not dare to ask again.
"Alright, both of you can go back to work." Bai Yujiao waved her hand and gestured for the two of them to leave. Tang Ming was about to leave when he heard Xiao Zheng's insatiable question. "Captain Bai, I have another request."
"What is it?" Bai Yujiao's attitude was surprisingly friendly. She was not as indifferent as she was to Tang Ming.
"Although I've taken on the position of Deputy Leader, I've yet to establish my authority in the Security Department. So, I'm thinking — why don't I take on the position of Team One Leader? This way, I can continue to be on the frontline. Secondly, I can establish a good relationship with my subordinates so that it'll be easier for me to manage them in the future. "Xiao Zheng had a hard-working expression as if he had suffered a great loss. Tang Ming felt like giving him a tight slap.
"Mm. What you said makes sense. "Bai Yujiao nodded. Bai Yujiao nodded. "Then it's decided. From today onwards, you'll take on the position of Team One Leader. At the same time, help me to discipline those guys. They've been hanging around Liu Qiming all these years, so their thinking is a little unhealthy. "
"Please rest assured, Captain Bai. I'll definitely do my best!" Xiao Zheng said solemnly with his head held high.
"Go out. I'm going to work. "Bai Yujiao turned on her computer and prepared to go online to browse her Moments.
When Xiao Zheng and Bai Yujiao left the office, Tang Ming immediately grabbed Xiao Zheng's neck and yelled, "Xiao Zheng, didn't you say you wanted to resign? Why are you back now? You even made a false accusation and tried to smear my name! "
"Who asked you to be so blabbermouth?" Xiao Zheng pushed Tang Ming away and said unhappily. "I was just expressing my feelings. I didn't really hand in my resignation letter. It's fine if you just heard it, but how could you tell Captain Bai? Aren't you cutting off my path of retreat? Luckily, I'm quick-witted. Otherwise, how could I have gotten past Captain Bai? "
"So, you sold me out?" Tang Ming said indignantly.
"Correct your attitude." Xiao Zheng glanced at Tang Ming and said unhappily. "I'm your immediate superior now. Is this how you talk to your superior? Do you believe that I'll fire you with a resignation letter? "
"—" Tang Ming was so angry that his face was red as he stomped his feet. "You've got guts, kid!"
"Haha," Xiao Zheng said amiably as he put his arm around Tang Ming's shoulders when he saw how angry Tang Ming was. "I was just joking with you. Why are you so serious? What's our relationship? I'm now the vice-captain. In the future, won't you be able to do whatever you want in the security department? "
Tang Ming poked Xiao Zheng and said unhappily, "Then you should have given me the position of captain of Team One. You're already the second-in-command in the security department. Why are you still fighting with me for such a chore? "
"You can't say that. You're already the captain of Team One and Team Two. Won't the entire security department be a figurehead? Brother Xiao Ming, are you planning to usurp the position? "Xiao Zheng said alarmingly.
Tang Ming smiled. "You've known me for so long. Do you think I'm such a person?"
"It's hard to say who you are, but you're definitely not a good person." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and walked forward. "Let's go. Let's accompany Captain Xiao to the canteen for lunch. "
"Lunch?" Tang Ming looked at the time. He was shocked. "It's only ten o 'clock!"
Xiao Zheng turned around like a ferocious tiger and said in a deep voice, "I, vice-captain Xiao, never look at whether I should eat or not. I only look at whether I want to eat or not!"
