Xiang Dongqing's counterattack caught General Manager Wen off guard.
"Xiang Dongqing, you damn woman, don't push me!" General Manager Wen shouted hysterically, his eyes bloodshot.
"Go ahead, press it, and we'll die together!" Xiang Dongqing sneered, her pretty face twisting into a fiercer expression than General Manager Wen's.
General Manager Wen trembled with rage, "Fine, then we'll die together! I'm just a factory owner, dragging a billionaire CEO like you to death with me is worth it!"
As he said this, General Manager Wen's thumb pressed down hard!
But just then, a steel ball flew from Qi Dengxian's hand, striking General Manager Wen's wrist with a sharp snap.
General Manager Wen cried out in pain, his hand loosening involuntarily, and the remote control fell to the ground.
Xiang Dongqing's eyes were bloodshot. As General Manager Wen reached for the remote, she suddenly pulled out a pencil from her hair and stabbed it fiercely into his arm!
"Aow!"
General Manager Wen let out a wolf-like howl, blood splattering everywhere.
Qi Dengxian arrived beside General Manager Wen at this moment, raising his hand to chop at the back of his head.
The scream stopped abruptly, and General Manager Wen's body collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Xiang Dongqing, her hair disheveled and holding the bloody pencil, panted heavily like a vengeful ghost, her murderous gaze falling on Qi Dengxian.
"Now you can call the police," Qi Dengxian turned to the stunned secretary at the door, his expression calm as if nothing had happened.
The secretary snapped back to reality and hurriedly dialed the police.
Qi Dengxian bent down to pick up the steel ball from the floor, playing with it in his hand, and smiled at Xiang Dongqing, "Shall we talk?"
Xiang Dongqing took a wet wipe, slowly cleaning the pencil in her hand, then placed her hands behind her head to tidy her hair.
"I have nothing to discuss with Xiang Donglei's people!" Xiang Dongqing sneered.
"I'm not his person; rather, he's mine, or rather, someone I manage," Qi Dengxian replied.
Xiang Dongqing frowned, "Are you a prison guard?"
Qi Dengxian nodded, "I left the prison by chance this time. Before I left, Xiang Donglei asked me to look after you."
Qi Dengxian said, "I don't particularly want to deal with these messy affairs either, but Xiang Donglei is well-behaved in prison and even helps me with a lot of work. Besides, his life is nearing its end. That's why I agreed to his request."
Hearing the news of Xiang Donglei's impending death, a flicker of emotion appeared in Xiang Dongqing's eyes, but she said nothing.
Her gaze turned cold again, "Are you pitying me?"
Qi Dengxian shrugged slightly, then shook his head, "You own a billion-dollar corporation; what right do I have to pity you? Whether you can hold onto it is another matter..."
Xiang Dongqing sneered, "What do you know?"
"I know you're being suppressed by Longmen, and I also know that the Xu family from the Imperial Capital is preparing to get involved. Even Yu Xiaolong seems interested in the Xiang Corporation," Qi Dengxian said calmly.
The first part of Qi Dengxian's words left Xiang Dongqing unmoved, the second made her eyes flicker, and the third stirred a storm in her heart.
Xiang Dongqing took a deep breath to calm herself.
The Xu family's involvement would only worsen the current situation, and if someone as influential as Yu Xiaolong in Hua Country got involved, the Xiang Corporation would likely be lost!
"You're just a prison guard; how can you help me?" Xiang Dongqing sat down, regaining her composure, her sharp eyes fixed on Qi Dengxian.
"When your brother begged me, he was on his knees, tears and snot flowing," Qi Dengxian replied expressionlessly.
Xiang Dongqing's eyebrows twitched slightly. She hated Xiang Donglei but knew he was a proud man.
Someone who could make him kneel and beg must not be simple.
Before Xiang Dongqing could speak, Qi Dengxian continued, "First, I need a job offer, any position will do, but it can't be too low."
"Secondly, I won't use the company's resources or work regular hours, only stepping in when you're in crisis."
"Lastly, I want to tell you, life isn't just about hatred."
Xiang Dongqing mocked, "What do you know about love and hate?"
After saying this, she pulled out a document, signed it swiftly, and tossed it in front of Qi Dengxian, "Deputy Head of Security, leave your name and number, then you can get out!"
"Qi Dengxian?"
Xiang Dongqing looked at the document in her hand, frowning slightly.
"Let's hope you're not just an ordinary person," Xiang Dongqing sneered.
Qi Dengxian ignored her sarcasm, extending his hand to Xiang Dongqing, "I need detailed information from you to see how Longmen is suppressing you and to understand your company's operations."
Xiang Dongqing's face remained cold, "No rush, we'll talk once you're officially on board."
At that moment, the police arrived and took General Manager Wen away, who had threatened Xiang Dongqing with a bomb, conducting a brief inquiry.
The Xiang Corporation had significant influence, and such a major incident was brushed off with a few words from Xiang Dongqing, without needing to visit the station.
Xiang Dongqing handed Qi Dengxian's employment documents to the secretary for processing.
A quick look at will leave you more fulfilled.
Qi Dengxian tossed the steel ball in his hand and then turned to leave.
"Wait," Xiang Dongqing called out to him.
"Hmm?" Qi Dengxian turned his head.
"How many days does he have left?" Xiang Dongqing asked coldly.
"Not sure, but not long," Qi Dengxian shook his head slightly and left Xiang Dongqing's office.
Once the room was empty, Xiang Dongqing stood up, turned to the bookshelf, and flipped a photo frame facing away from her.
In the frame was a family photo.
"Even you are leaving me? Who will I hate then?" Xiang Dongqing murmured, clenching her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned pale.
After the secretary finished processing the employment paperwork, Qi Dengxian left the Xiang Corporation with his work ID.
He had another task to tackle: resolving the issue of Zhonghai Bank's refusal to lend to the Qiao Group.
