Chapter 123: The Female Lead Goes Bankrupt (5)
Distracted by Xu Fu, both of them looked somewhat embarrassed, and the male protagonist hurriedly let go of the female protagonist's hand.
They gazed at each other silently, their eyes filled with affection.
"Get to the point! What kind of behavior is this, hugging and cuddling like this?!" Xu Fu snorted coldly, staring intently at the two of them.
"I...I—" The female lead's cheeks flushed red as she looked shyly at the male lead.
When he turned his head toward Xu Fu, the man quickly composed himself...
"So, have you two reached a conclusion?" Xu Fu glanced at the two of them without any politeness.
"Give us one night to think it over carefully—" The male protagonist snorted at Xu Fu.
He grabbed the female lead and hurriedly walked out of the office.
As soon as the door was opened, Xu Fu's assistant was seen lying on the door panel with a lewd expression.
Why not just bump into the male and female leads?
The assistant scratched his head awkwardly, immediately meeting Xu Fu's disgusted expression.
He silently asked the other person with his eyes whether he should intervene and stop the two people.
Xu Fu shook his head slightly and called out to the two figures as they walked away.
"Take care, and don't bother seeing me off—"
"I hope to see you tomorrow morning..." Xu Fu smiled at the female lead.
The female lead nodded, and she and the male lead left without looking back.
After the assistants and others had walked away, just as he was about to step into Xu Fu's office...
While we're at it, let's find out Xu Fu's attitude towards those two people.
Unexpectedly, Xu Fu simply grabbed his phone, put on his coat, and left the company without looking back.
He left his assistant alone behind, watching Xu Fu's departing figure with longing eyes.
With nothing to do, Xu Fu rewarded himself with a hot pot meal and then happily stayed at home.
The next morning, Xu Fu and everyone else went to work, while he stood alone at the company entrance, anxiously waiting.
It wasn't until 9 o'clock that the female lead finally arrived, her steps hurried—
Behind them, the male protagonist was also panting heavily.
Xu Fu's mouth immediately widened.
She could understand the female lead coming to work, but what was with the male lead following her around?!
Is it now fashionable for oxen and horses to bring another burden when they go out to work...?
"What are you doing here?" Xu Fu stepped in to stop the two, his eyes darting between them with a questioning look.
"What does this mean? You can't bring your family to work, can you?!"
Just as the female lead was about to explain, the male lead grabbed her.
She said angrily, "Since you signed a contract with him, I'm going to find something to do here too—"
"It doesn't matter what the job is, as long as the salary and benefits are the same as hers."
The male lead pointed at the female lead with an extremely arrogant air, proudly raising his chin.
"What abilities do you have?" Xu Fu looked the male protagonist up and down with disdain.
"Such arrogance! Wanting the same treatment as her—"
Xu Fu pointed at the female protagonist and declared righteously, "She and I have known each other for many years."
"What do I have to do with you?" Xu Fu scoffed dismissively.
“It’s not impossible for you to work with him—” Xu Fu slowly turned a corner.
"It all depends on whether you're willing or not!"
"Just tell me what you want to say!" the male protagonist said righteously.
"If I even flinch today, I'll change my surname to yours!"
"No problem," Xu Fu smiled smugly, "I can have you do the same work, or you can sit together—"
"Just tell me your conditions—" The male protagonist acted as if he wasn't afraid of even the King of Heaven himself.
Now Xu Fu was emboldened and immediately came up with an even more ingenious plan.
He waved to the two of them and took the lead, walking ahead of them.
"The terms are all negotiable. Let's go straight to my office and sit down to discuss the details."
Xu Fu wasn't worried that the male lead wouldn't take the bait, after all, the female lead was already half of him...
After Xu Fu and his entourage sat down, their assistant served them tea and snacks.
Then he had his secretary bring a laptop and turn the terms they discussed into a contract.
"You've signed a flexible work contract; there's no fixed term."
"If you two insist on locking yourselves in..."
"Then the time limit must be changed, and even if there is no non-compete agreement, another one needs to be signed!"
"You're utterly shameless, pushing your luck!" Upon hearing Xu Fu's conditions, the male protagonist slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
He looked at Xu Fu with an expression that suggested he was looking at a ruthless exploiter.
"What kind of heartless company are you running? It's bound to go bankrupt sooner or later!!!"
Seeing that the male lead's words were becoming increasingly outrageous, the female lead quickly pulled him back.
He smiled apologetically at Xu Fu, "He didn't mean it—"
"It was intentional!" Xu Fu continued, echoing the female lead's words.
The interrupted female protagonist blushed and looked embarrassed.
Xu Fu and his assistants put the newly drafted contract back on the table, and Xu Fu pushed it directly towards the two men.
"You two take a look—" Xu Fu pushed the contract with the lower monthly salary towards the male lead.
"If you're willing to do it, sign and put your fingerprint on it right now—"
"If you're not willing, then just get out of here!"
"Also," Xu Fu, you should have spoken to the two of them beforehand.
"We hired you to do the work, not to put two big shots on our shoulders—"
"If they don't cooperate with work requirements and act all high and mighty all day long—"
Xu Fu pointed to the office door, "The door is over there. Take care!"
Just as the male lead was about to lose his temper, the female lead swiftly grabbed him and pinned him down.
She smiled ingratiatingly at Xu Fu and slipped a pen into the male protagonist's hand.
They forced him to sign the contract.
The female lead and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief after pressing their handprints.
"Is that enough?!" The male protagonist unceremoniously tossed a contract at Xu Fu.
Xu Fu didn't mind the other party's rude attitude; he clutched the contract, turned around, and tossed it to his assistant.
"Keep it safe, put it in the vault when the time comes, and don't let anyone steal it!"
Xu Fu glanced warily at the male protagonist, given the two of them's utterly shameless principles...
They might just steal the contract and non-compete agreement...
After taking the contract, the assistant nodded solemnly.
After making arrangements for the male lead, the female lead carefully read her contract.
After finding no loopholes, he readily signed his name.
After everyone had affixed their fingerprints, Xu Fu handed the contract over to his assistant as usual.
Then the two unfortunate children were placed in seats that the assistant had specially prepared.
Then he slowly walked back to his office.
When her assistant reappeared before her, Xu Fu raised an eyebrow at him smugly.
"Those three projects that were previously taken away can now be put on the agenda—"
"Isn't the boss angry? After all, it was the clients who unilaterally breached the contract!"
The assistant was indignant, yet also triumphant; he hadn't expected his boss to act so swiftly.
Not only did they ruin the other company, they also brought the boss under their control.
From now on, I can only work diligently for myself!
He is truly a role model for us all!
