Chapter 182 Trouble
Si Yejue made a video call to Gu Nian. They chatted while having a meal.
They mainly discussed the proposal of Phantom Company. Sometimes, Gu Nian would also flirt with Si Yejue.
Gu Nian picked up some food with chopsticks and tried to feed Si Yejue.
Si Yejue couldn't eat the food because they were only making a video call. But he still opened his mouth and pretended to eat the food. "The food becomes more delicious because of you."
Gu Nian beamed with pleasure.
This was probably the optimum state of being in a relationship.
Both of them enjoyed exchanging banter and laughed.
After the meal, Gu Nian yawned. "Jue, I'm going to take a nap. I have a meeting in the afternoon."
She knew the workers fired by her would certainly cause trouble.
Si Yejue looked at her affectionately. "Okay."
Gu Nian didn't end the video call. She directly bent over the table, sleeping.
Si Yejue didn't hang up either. He stared at Gu Nian on the screen and smiled with happiness written all over his face.
He thought Gu Nian filled a gap in his life!
When Gu Nian woke up, her phone was out of power and turned off automatically.
She rubbed her face to clear her head and charged her phone.
Gu Nian turned on the computer and was busy tapping away at her computer.
After a while, there was a knock on the door.
Trouble was approaching.
"Come in."
The people who came in were the workers fired by Gu Nian at noon.
"Ms. Gu, we didn't do anything wrong. You can't fire us."
Gu Nian looked up at them and locked the door of her office.
She didn't feel flustered and only raised her eyebrows lightly. "So what?"
"We did not make mistakes at work, but you fired us inexplicably. We can't accept it."
"According to the labor law, we can go to arbitration and then continue to work here. Otherwise, you should give us double salaries."
Gu Nian looked up at them. "Are you sure that I fired you for no reason?"
One of the workers said, "Since I was admitted to the company, I have been devoted to my job without making any mistakes. So you have no reason to fire me."
Other workers who had been fired also nodded in agreement.
"Ms. Gu, it's unfair if you fire us just because we talk gossip."
Gu Nian replied with contempt, "Well, what if I neither change my decision nor give you double wages?"
She said in a cold voice, which was different from the way she talked to Si Yejue.
She looked indifferent and aggressive in front of those workers.
Those workers could get an extra month's salary as long as they embarrassed Gu Nian.
So they acted blatantly.
"Then we'll go to arbitration and accuse you."
"Moreover, we may deflate your tires and pee in your glass."
"On your way home, you may meet some gangsters who like to harass beautiful women."
Gu Nian narrowed her eyes and asked, "Are you threatening me?"
Her beautiful eyes twinkled with coldness, which was intimidating.
One of the workers shuddered with fear but still said through gritted teeth, "We just want to get the wages we deserve and protect our interests."
"If you don't give us double wages in compensation now, we will humiliate you in front of other employees."
Gu Nian stood up and slowly scraped her hair back in a ponytail.
Her slender and fair neck was revealed.
She also took off the necklace.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at them with a teasing smile. "Well, I am curious about how you can embarrass me."
The workers that came to make trouble for Gu Nian were all male.
They were lascivious and leered at Gu Nian's slender neck and sexy collarbone.
They were bribed into making a scene in Gu Nian's company.
They decided to strip Gu Nian naked in her office. In this way, they could humiliate her.
Gu Nian would also be tainted with scandals.
"Ms. Gu, since you don't agree with our request, don't blame us for bullying you."
Gu Nian pressed the button on her necklace and smiled. "Alright."
