"Is this how you do things? The chairman has already said that when Miss Chi comes, no matter what he's doing, Miss Quan has to go up immediately. How dare you stop Miss Quan? How outrageous. "The man's voice suddenly attracted everyone's attention.
Even Chi Jiao and Beitang Lie turned around and looked behind them.
A young man in a suit, less than 30 years old, walked over. He wore a pair of rimless glasses and his hair was neatly combed behind his head, revealing a fair face. The man wasn't very handsome, but upon closer inspection, his appearance was somewhat similar to Quan Jue's. His bearing was also extraordinary, and it was obvious that he wasn't an ordinary person.
"Mr. Quan Shu …" The receptionist, who had been very smug earlier, immediately lowered her head when she saw the man.
However, there was no fear in her eyes. Instead, there was disdain, as if she looked down on this man.
Chi Jiao's attention was focused on this man's name.
Quan Shu was indeed from the Quan family.
She remembered that Quan Shu was Quan Huirong's son. He had taken his mother's surname, but he didn't have much status in the Quan family. All the limelight had been snatched away by Quan Hai's two sons. In Quan Group, he was only a small team leader in the product development department. His status wasn't high.
Chi Jiao realized that Quan Shu was completely different from the cowardly person in the rumors. He had an innate sense of righteousness. Even though he was standing up for Chi Jiao, he didn't show any fawning expression to her. His indifferent expression made people have a good impression of him.
"Mr. Quan Shu, I'm just following the rules," the receptionist said with her head lowered.
"Your rules aren't the rules. The rules that the chairman says are the rules. Since you don't know how to be flexible and are making things difficult for the future wife of the chairman, you don't have to work in our Quan Group anymore. Go to the finance department to collect this month's salary and leave the company, "Quan Shu said firmly.
The receptionist was shocked and shouted in disbelief, "No, you don't have the right to fire me!"
"Then, I'll wait with Miss Chi. Let's see if the chairman will speak up for you or stand on my side when he comes later," Quan Shu said expressionlessly with a cold face.
The receptionist's face instantly turned pale before she ran away crying aggrievedly.
Quan Shu turned around and smiled at Chi Jiao. "Miss Chi, you've suffered."
"Thank you, Mr. Quan Shu, for helping me out. If it's convenient, why don't you come with me to see Brother Quan? I can treat you to a cup of tea as well." Chi Jiao observed Quan Shu's reaction as she spoke.
To Chi Jiao's surprise, Quan Shu actually shook his head and rejected her after hearing her suggestion. "There's no need. I just happened to pass by and helped to say something. Speaking of which, when Miss Chi gets married in the future, she'll still be my sister-in-law. We'll all be family, so there's no need to be polite. I still have work to do, so I'll take my leave first. Miss Chi, please go ahead. "
With that, Quan Shu and Chi Jiao nodded and turned to leave.
Chi Jiao stared at his back. After he left, she sighed and said, "How refreshing."
"Boss, what's wrong?" Beitang Lie asked curiously.
"This is the first time I've met someone from the Quan family who can speak to me properly. He actually said that we're family." Chi Jiao was a little surprised.
It wasn't that Chi Jiao had never seen the Quan family before.
At the very least, none of the Quan family members that she had met so far thought highly of her.
