Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Exactly How Unhappy Will He Be?

"Good riddance! An employee like that should have been fired ages ago. Otherwise, we’d have to worry about being framed every time we come here to shop!"

Liu Qiang had been glaring at Shen Nian with hatred, but when he heard He Hongming say he was fired, he was instantly terrified.

The job paid well and was prestigious, and he’d always been very proud to have it.

If he lost this job, what would he have to brag about? His old friends would surely look down on him!

"Boss, I was wrong! Please don’t fire me! I promise, I’ll never, ever do something like this again! I’ll apologize. I’ll apologize to you, or I can apologize to her—anything, as long as you don’t fire me!"

After pleading with He Hongming, Liu Qiang didn’t even wait for a response before turning to Shen Nian.

"Miss, it’s all my fault. I must have been out of my mind! I was a fool and didn’t realize who I was dealing with. Please, forgive me this one time. Don’t stoop to my level. If you just put in a good word for me with the boss and ask him not to fire me, I’ll apologize however you want!"

Liu Qiang finally understood. The young woman in front of him was clearly very important to the boss. If he could just get her to plead his case, he might not be fired after all.

But Shen Nian was no naive saint. She would have to be a fool to plead for someone who had shown her such blatant malice.

"This is an internal matter for your supermarket. It has nothing to do with me."

"How can it have nothing to do with me! If you just plead my case, the boss will definitely spare me!"

"Enough!"

Seeing Liu Qiang actually harassing Shen Nian and making her look so uncomfortable, He Hongming erupted in anger.

’Shen Nian is our family’s great benefactor. It was bad enough that she was falsely accused on my turf, but now she’s being harassed by this despicable man. If this makes her develop a bad impression of the He Family, that would be a tremendous loss.’

"I was the one who decided to fire you, and that decision will never change. Our supermarket will never hire someone like you again. Now, get out. If you don’t leave, I’ll have no choice but to call the police and have you escorted out."

"No, Boss, you can’t fire me! It was Vice President Jiang who got me this job. If you fire me, Vice President Jiang won’t be happy!"

Vice President Jiang was his biggest trump card. Liu Qiang hadn’t wanted to play it, but now that he was being thrown out, he had no choice but to use his last resort.

However, Liu Qiang had miscalculated. He thought mentioning Vice President Jiang’s name would make He Hongming at least a little wary. He never expected that after he said it, the anger on He Hongming’s face would deepen.

"Hmph. Then I’d love to see just how unhappy this Vice President Jiang of yours will be when I fire you!"

This supermarket was one of the He Family’s businesses. However, the parent company had many senior executives, and Vice President Jiang was one of them.

The irony was that while Vice President Jiang held a high status in Liu Qiang’s eyes, he was exactly the person He Hongming had been wanting to oust. He Hongming despised the man’s constant cronyism, backdoor deals, and abuse of power for personal gain.

’He had been looking for a good excuse to dismiss Vice President Jiang. And now, this Liu Qiang had just handed him one on a silver platter. This time, he could definitely oust Vice President Jiang from the company’s senior leadership in one fell swoop.’

’In a way, he really ought to thank Liu Qiang.’
