Shortly after, Xu Guodong showed up at Yu Tian’s office.

“President Yu, were you looking for me?”

He instantly noticed that Yu Tian had a gloomy expression on his face and felt goosebumps all over his body.

“Old Xu, you’re such a thoughtful person to spread rumors around,” said Yu Tian with a smile.

“President Yu…”

Guodong shuddered. His heart was pounding rapidly.

“Well… You know… With President Chu… If I…”

“If you what?”

Yu Tian raised an eyebrow.

“If you didn’t tell her about the matchmaking, then she wouldn’t know, right?”

Guodong was taken aback. He did not even realize that he was holding his breath.

The room fell silent.

Finally, with his head lowered, Guodong said, “President Yu, I’ve made a mistake. How can I earn your forgiveness? I’ll do anything as long as you don’t fire me.”

Yu Tian snorted.

“Don’t try to play tricks on me. Let me tell you, Elder sister Qing was really angry about this. If I didn’t back you up, you would’ve already been replaced.”

“What?!”

Guodong could not believe what he was hearing.

If this news came from anyone else, he would not have trusted it. After all, he had held the position of general manager for numerous years. He should have been given merit for his hard work instead of demerit.

Normally, Chu Qing would not replace any employees unless absolutely necessary.

However, since this news came directly from Yu Tian, he had no choice but to take it seriously.

Still feeling a little doubtful, he asked again, “President Chu was really going to fire me?”

‘She should have thought about all the contributions that I’ve made for the company!’

“What do you think?”

Yu Tan replied.

Guodong was flustered.

‘Slap! Slap!’

He slapped himself across the face twice. His cheeks instantly turned red.

“President Yu, it’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have said anything unnecessary. Please give me a second chance.”

“Alright, alright.”

Yu Tian waved his hand dismissively in the air.

He thought of questioning Guodong further but after seeing the man’s action, he could not be bothered.

“Let’s put a stop to this. I’m sure you’re well aware of the consequences if anything like this happens again.”

“Yes, of course. President Yu, I’ll never make another mistake again! I will follow your instructions without question!”

The terrified man promised again and again. He already knew how important Yu Tian was to Chu Qing.

If his new boss really wanted to punish him, he would probably be packing up his belongings by now. Oh, wait, almost everything he owned was the company’s property.

Yu Tian was about to speak again when Guodong’s phone suddenly rang.

It was Chu Qing.

“President Yu, President Chu is calling,” said Guodong in an embarrassed manner.

He was almost punished by his new boss, thus, all his following actions had to be made with extra caution.

After all, he did not want to get into trouble again.

“Answer it.”

Relieved, Guodong answered his phone in a respectful tone, “President Chu, how can I help you?”

“Has Yu Tian arrived at the office?”

Chu Qing’s voice sounded rather lazy.

“Yes, President Yu is already here.”

“Help him familiarize with his work.”

“Yes, President Chu. Don’t worry, I’ve already done everything as instructed. President Yu is currently organizing the reports. He’s smart. He got the hang of it after just one example was shown. In fact, he’s the brightest young man that I’ve ever met!”

Guodong kept throwing glances at Yu Tian as he spoke.

‘Sigh, Old Xu…’

Yu Tian did not know whether to laugh or cry. Regardless, it was not a bad idea to keep this man around. After all, his sales achievements were outstanding.

“Alright, proceed with your work,” said Chu Qing from the other end of the phone.

“Understood.”

Old Xu hung up and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

He felt awkward being sandwiched between Yu Tian and Chu Qing.

However, no matter how difficult it was, he needed to endure it so he could keep his job.

“President Yu, was my reply satisfactory?”

Guodong looked nervously at Yu Tian.

“Not bad. Just be more careful next time,” said the latter as he waved his hand.

Guodong finally felt the heavyweight being lifted off his shoulders. He quickly walked out of Yu Tian’s office.

After some time, Yu Tian became bored of being in the office alone. So, he began to wander around the company.

Upon arriving at the lounge, he was shocked.

“I didn’t expect to find billiards here.”

He had been in the lounge once, but only just noticed the billiards. It was one of his favorite cue sports.

Yu Tian noticed that there were two men playing the game. Since he was bored out of his mind, he decided to walk over and spectate.

“Sigh, Old Li, when will Xu Guodong be free?” said the thinner man. He had a swept-back hairstyle and was wearing a suit. His name was Situ Kun.

Meanwhile, the man he called Old Li was his business partner, Li Shancheng.

“Let’s wait for a bit longer. I’ve asked their staff. Apparently, Xu Guodong is still busy.”

Shancheng replied.

“He didn’t agree to our proposal last time. We must succeed this time around!”

Yu Tian’s interest was piqued. He stepped forward and asked, “Are the two of you here to collaborate with our company?”

“Who are you?”

Shancheng and Kun looked at Yu Tian from top to bottom.

“Yu Tian.”

The two men exchanged looks.

“We’ve never heard of your name before.”

“Are you an employee here? You can help by reminding Xu Guodong that we’ve been waiting for him,” said Shancheng.

Before Yu Tian could speak, Kun interjected, “I’m sure he’s just a low position employee. I don’t think he knows Xu Guodong.”

“I do,” answered Yu Tian. He continued, “Which company are you from?”

Upon hearing that, the two men immediately straightened their posture.

“I’m the chairman of Li Corporation and we’re here today to propose a collaboration with your company. As for Kun, he’s the creator of this gaming project. He’s also my lawyer that helps with negotiation.”

Shancheng said with a somewhat arrogant tone.

Yu Tian was not bothered by it and simply said, “The chairman of Li Corporation? Alright, tell me about your proposal.”

“Tell you?”

Shancheng twitched his lips.

“Sure, I guess there’s no harm to it. We’re planning to create a saga-type video game that allows us to recycle the in-game coins. It’ll be profitable.”

“Oh?”

Yu Tian appeared to be surprised.

“What do you mean by recycling?”

“We’ve put a lot of thought into it. The monsters can randomly drop in-game currencies and equipment. Players can then use those game coins and trade them into RMB.”

“Why does it sound like a scam to me?”

Yu Tian blurted out subconsciously. A video game like the one Shancheng was proposing was really trendy at the moment.

To begin with, Kun was not impressed by Yu Tian. He became even more displeased when his project was doubted.

“What the f*ck? Scam? I dare you to say it again!”

Yu Tian replied, “Was I wrong? It doesn’t sound reliable to me.”

“F*ck!”

Kun cursed again and rolled up his sleeves. He was about to fight the young man.

The long wait for Xu Guodong had already filled him with frustration and Yu Tian’s negative remark triggered his anger.

Shancheng stepped forward.

“You’re only a low position employee. Why are you acting so arrogant? Apologize immediately! Or do you want to get fired?!”

“Didn’t you hear what the man said? Apologize right now!”

“Apologize? Not happening.”

Yu Tian shook his head.

Kun was completely enraged. He rushed forward to grab the young man.

Obviously, Yu Tian was not a pushover. Furthermore, they were on his turf!

He extended his arm to push Kun away.

His strength had improved immensely after practicing cultivation even if it was only for a day. Just a slight push was enough to deal with the situation.

‘Bam!’

Kun felt as if a bull had run into him. He flung backward before landing on the ground.

“Elder brother Kun!” shouted Shancheng. He immediately went to help his friend up.

“F*cking prick! How dare you lay a hand on me?!”

Kun struggled to regain his balance. He was completely humiliated.

A low position employee dared to push him down?!

“Elder brother Kun, I’ll help you!”

Shancheng rushed forward.

Despite their determination, they failed miserably against Yu Tian.

‘Boom!’

‘Bam!’

Both Kun and Shancheng fell to the ground and bruised their faces.

Yu Tian wiped the dirt off his hands.

“Don’t blame me. You guys started it.”

“D*mn it!”

Kun rose to his feet. His left eye that got punched became swollen.

“I’ve been attacked! Where’s the security?!”

“Is this how you treat your customers? By punching them? An employee like this needs to be fired instantly!”

Shancheng even took out his phone, intending to call the police.

Several male employees approached them upon noticing the commotion.

When they saw Yu Tian, they respectfully greeted, “President Yu.”

“Hmm.”

Yu Tian nodded before scoffing at the two men.

“President… President Yu?”

Both men were in utter shock..
