Chapter 115: Bullying the Elderly?
Zhan Yanxun frowned and said, "Jiang Qianhui, it's one thing for you to kick this old man out of the hospital for that male college student, but you even took back the house I gave them. Where are you going to send a sick old man? Are you going to be satisfied with watching this old man wandering the streets?"
"President Zhan, before they met you, didn't they have to live? Didn't they have a place to live?"
Qiao said tremblingly, "President Jiang, we used to rent a house."
Jiang Qianhui said with a cold look in her eyes, "Since you used to rent a house, you can rent one yourself now. As I said, that house, although it was arranged for you by President Zhan, is at most just employee housing for the Zhan Group. Our Zhan Group wants to take it back and give it to someone more capable."
"Who are you going to give that house to?"
“I want to give this to Zhao Youling. The results of the international jewelry competition are out, and our Zhan Group won the top prize. As the person in charge of this project, this is a perk I'm giving to Zhao Youling.”
Qiao Weiwei was filled with rage upon hearing this. It was all because of Jiang Qianhui; this Zhao Youling had stolen her position as design director and was now trying to take the house Zhan Yanxun had given her.
This Zhao Youling was actually arranged by Jiang Qianhui to suppress her.
"President Zhan, President Jiang is right. Houses should be given to those who are more capable. Zhao Youling led the company's design department and won the highest award in an international competition. She is now a true design director. I think if it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to lead the company's design department to win the highest award in an international competition. I really envy her talent; I am ultimately too inadequate."
Qiao Weiwei sounded pitiful, but she knew that Zhan Yanxun valued her talent highly.
Zhan Yanxun: "You don't need to underestimate yourself. I believe in your abilities."
Listening to Zhan Yanxun's words of comfort to Qiao Weiwei, she found it all quite amusing. This stern, domineering man who only knew how to endlessly negate others actually admired Qiao Weiwei.
Jiang Qianhui said coldly, "President Zhan, according to the previous agreement, don't forget that we agreed that as long as we win the highest award in the international competition, the position of design director will be Zhao Youling."
Zhan Yanxun said condescendingly, "I naturally remember what I said."
Zhan Yanxun was surprised that Jiang Qianhui was able to lead the design department to win the highest award in the international jewelry competition. After all, that award had been monopolized by international high-end jewelry brands, and he knew the strength of the design department.
He was shocked to find that Jiang Qianhui had actually done it.
Pang Chunyan listened from the side, her calculating eyes filled with anger.
I had heard her granddaughter Qiao Weiwei say before that she was originally going to get the position of design director, but it was all because of Jiang Qianhui and another person named Zhao Youling who combined her with the design director position. Otherwise, if she had known that the design director position had a considerable salary and a different status in the company, she would have been fine.
Pang Chunyan suppressed her anger, then affectionately took Qiao Weiwei's hand and said, "Granddaughter, don't blame yourself too much. Grandma believes in you just like President Zhan. You're a very capable girl. You've been talented since you were little. I know you're very sad that you didn't get the position of Director of Order this time. You often secretly shed tears. It's also your bad luck. Some jealous people falsely accused you of plagiarism, and Zhao Youling got the job. But it's okay. Grandma believes in you. You'll definitely do better in the future."
Although Pang Chunyan appears to be a good grandmother advising her granddaughter not to underestimate herself, every word she utters is actually a trap set by Jiang Qianhui to sow discord in her granddaughter's mind.
Jiang Qianhui said coldly, "Old lady, let me reiterate something. Zhao Youling's position as design director is something she earned through her own efforts. You yourself said you have nothing to regret; if your skills are inferior, then your skills are inferior."
“Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang is right. We are not as skilled as others. My granddaughter understands and has been reflecting on herself. I just feel bad seeing her cry. She just wants to become the design director so she can earn more money for this old woman and give her a better life. She is a very filial child. It is all because of me that she is a burden to him.”
Pang Chunyan spoke in a pitiful tone, as if she were being oppressed, and seemed very pathetic.
Zhan Yanxun said angrily, "Jiang Qianhui, you were born into the Jiang family and you don't know the hardships of the world. Even if you were born on a high platform, you should come down and feel the pain of others."
"President Zhan, just as you said, I was born on a high platform, so why should I feel the pain of others? Why should I create pain for myself?"
That's right, Jiang Qianhui was born into a privileged position and was born proud. In her previous life, she actually humbled herself for Zhan Yanxun, doing things to please his family and lowering herself to the dust for him. Now she finds herself ridiculous. Yes, she is born into a privileged position, so why should she create pain for herself?
"President Zhan, don't argue with President Jiang. Someone of President Jiang's noble birth can't understand people like us who can't even get enough to eat or a place to live. President Jiang must have done a lot of good deeds in his past life to have such a good life in this one. Everyone's fate is predetermined. We accept our fate of suffering, but we will still live happily."
Qiao Weiwei said, touching her grandmother's hand, "Grandma, aren't you right? Although we don't have much money, I'm very happy. Grandma, I'm sorry, I can't afford to rent you a nice place right now. I can only rent a simple apartment in a walk-up building. Although the conditions are a bit poor, we're very happy, aren't we?"
"Having a granddaughter like you is such a blessing to me, Zhan Yanxun. My granddaughter is really sensible. Since her parents passed away, although it's this old woman taking care of her, she has been helping me with chores since she was very young, such as washing clothes and cooking. Although we have a hard life, we are still very happy."
Jiang Qiansu said coldly, "Since you're so happy, why are you playing the victim in Zhan Yanxun's office? Do you know how much company business Zhan Yanxun has to deal with every day? Why are you bothering him here? Go rent your apartment in a building with stairs and live your happy life."
Pang Chunyan and Qiao Weiwei were so embarrassed by Jiang Qianhui's retorts that their faces turned green.
"Let's go now, let's go now."
Pang Chunyan bowed repeatedly to Jiang Qianhui.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Jiang, we're really sorry to have bothered you. Mr. Zhan, we're so sorry, we'll be leaving now. We're really sorry to have bothered you like this."
Pang Chunyan kept bowing to Jiang Qianhui and Zhan Yanxun. She looked like an old woman who had suffered many hardships and was frightened.
Zhan Yanxun frowned deeply and said angrily, "Those who are born on high platforms but lack the virtue to match their positions deserve to fall down!"
