After kicking out my ex-husband, his brother and I got back together.

Chapter 286 Selfishness
Walking up to Duan Xiaowu, Liu Xi bowed gently as usual, and then said softly.

"Mr. Duan, you haven't been back for a long time."

Duan Xiaowu smiled faintly at Liu Xi.

"sit."

She pointed to the chair opposite the desk. Liu Xi nodded and said thank you several times before sitting down.

Duan Xiaowu had seen the expression on Liu Xi's face too many times in the business world. Looking at this flattering and flattering smile, she just felt tired.

The workplace is a place where people are refined, and there is competition everywhere.

She could understand Liu Xi's unwillingness at the beginning.

No one can accept a graduate student being squeezed out by an undergraduate student.

Perhaps if it were someone else, he would not let go of the opportunity to punish his opponent.

She put her hand gently on the desk and intertwined her fingers.

"Xiao Xi, how many years have you been in the company?"

Liu Xi didn't even think about it.

"Five years and four months."

Duan Xiaowu nodded and said nothing, just looked at her quietly.

Liu Xi sat for a while and realized something was wrong. She looked at Duan Xiaowu cautiously and asked softly.

"Mr. Duan, why...why do you suddenly ask me this?"

Duan Xiaowu smiled lightly.

"Just asking casually, you interned in the company during your graduate studies. I have always thought your abilities are outstanding."

Suddenly being praised like this by her former leader, Liu Xi finally couldn't hide the smile on her face anymore.

"Mr. Duan, you've given me the award. It's actually nothing..."

"How long have you been transferred to the third floor?"

When Duan Xiaowu asked this question, Liu Xi was slightly stunned.

"Um...not...less than a week."

As soon as she mentioned the third floor, her eyes immediately dimmed again, as if she was trying to win someone's sympathy.

Before Duan Xiaowu could speak, Liu Xi spoke again.

"Mr. Duan, I really don't know where I offended Mr. Feng. I know that you and Mr. Feng have a good relationship. You may not believe it when I say this in front of you. But I have always been diligent and follow I've been with you for almost four years, don't you still know me?"

When she spoke, her eyes naturally lowered.

"When Sister Liu was still here, I had the same surname as Sister Liu, and we had always had a good relationship. But then Xia Yizhen came, and Mr. Feng targeted me intentionally or unintentionally, and demoted me to the third floor two days ago. "

As she spoke, her tears fell down at the right moment.

"Mr. Duan, I know that the Duan family is now fully managed by Mr. Feng. But you are the heir to the old chairman. Wouldn't Mr. Feng be a little too self-assertive by doing this? It's a trivial matter to transfer me. , can this undergraduate be a good assistant? What is the future of our Duan family? "

She spoke so earnestly that Duan Xiaowu laughed out loud in her heart.

If she hadn't specifically searched for the previous surveillance, saw her ostracizing Xia Yizhen, and seen her advising Xia San and his wife in Feng Yian's office today, she would have thought that what this person said was true.

"really."

Duan Xiaowu nodded, and Liu Xi thought she had heard what she just said, so she quickly added.

"Mr. Duan, I only care about the company. It doesn't matter where I am. It's just that I have worked in the company for so many years, and I really can't bear to see a big Duan family fall into the hands of an outsider."

She thought she was smart and started to speak for Duan Xiaowu again.

Duan Xiaowu finally couldn't hold back this time and expressed the laughter in her heart.

"Xiao Xi, why didn't I see why you worked so hard before? Well, you're really showing off your talents by staying on the third floor. I'll arrange another place for you."

Upon hearing Duan Xiaowu's words, Liu Xi's eyes lit up and he stood up immediately.

"Thank you Mr. Duan, I will definitely..."

After Duan Xiaowu said her first thank you, she raised her hand to stop what she wanted to say next. "There is a very good factory in the eastern suburbs of City Y. You can go and manage it there."

Duan Xiaowu picked up the steaming coffee on the table and took a sip.

Liu Xi, who was smiling just now and had dozens of flattering words prepared in his heart, froze in an instant.

City Y was originally a small third-tier city, or a suburb of the city. Wouldn't this be tantamount to exile?

She was stunned for several seconds before she reacted, and her voice was trembling.

"Mr. Duan, are you... making a mistake..."

Duan Xiaowu put down the cup, her face remained as usual, and she even raised her eyebrows.

"That's right, it's the eastern suburbs of Y City. Although the environment there is a bit worse, the factory area is mostly filled with middle-aged aunties and the like. You and them also have common topics."

It goes without saying what kind of factory a factory with mostly middle-aged people should be.

Liu Xi immediately rushed to Duan Xiaowu, almost kneeling down beside her, begging.

"Mr. Duan, I...I shouldn't say bad things about Mr. Feng. It's all my own fault. My jealousy is too strong, so I can't stand Xia Yizhen. Please spare me. I'm willing to be a person on the third floor." I’m willing to do it for the little clerk.”

Duan Xiaowu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, but did not reply to her words.

She called Anna loudly, and Anna opened the door and came in. As if she couldn't see Liu Xi, she brought in two contracts.

"Boss, the contracts have been sorted out. There are two copies."

She placed the two contracts in front of Duan Xiaowu.

"The first is a notice of termination of the labor contract, and the second is an appointment contract for the factory in the eastern suburbs of City Y."

Liu Xi turned around and saw the two contracts. His legs softened and he fell completely to the ground.

Duan Xiaowu sat where she was and spoke in an unhurried voice.

"I won't force you. You know what you did."

She did not lower her head, but lowered her gaze to look at Liu Xi, who was slumped next to her.

"You have been working with Anna for nearly four years. You have not graduated from graduate school. You said you are willing to endure hardship. Anna also told me that you would come as an intern."

"The company trusts you and trains you. Is this how you repay the company?"

Liu Xi cried and shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry Mr. Duan, I didn't mean to..."

Duan Xiaowu stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

"You are jealous. You can prove through your strength that you are doing better than Xia Yizhen. What the company needs is employees with a legitimate competitive spirit, not villains who can only play dirty tricks behind the scenes."

She turned around and looked at the man who was already in tears.

"I think you have been in the company in the past few years and performed well when you were Anna's deputy. Whichever contract you sign, the company will give you corresponding compensation. But Liu Xi, I still advise you, as a human being, you must give Keep a line for yourself.”

Liu Xi slowly got up from the ground, her eyes red and biting her lip.

"Mr. Duan, the company will not prosper if you only help personal relationships."

Duan Xiaowu sneered.

"You don't have to worry about it anymore."

Liu Xi picked up the pen, hesitated for a long time, and finally signed the document terminating the labor contract.

When she walked out with her contract, Duan Xiaowu was still standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

Anna stood behind her and Duan Xiaowu looked out the window.

"People's hearts will always change. I remember Liu Xi was quite honest when I followed you."

Anna chuckled.

"Any problem is not the reason for her to instigate Xia San to make trouble in front of Duan's house. She keeps saying it is for the company, but does not care about the company's reputation. This is truly selfish."
