Chapter 1071: Getting Nothing after All the Scheming

“Inform the HR to fire these two.”

The man then walked away without a backward glance, leaving behind the two female employees with no tears to cry and his assistant, Du Wen.

“Sigh… You two…”

He eyed the two women helplessly before shaking his head.

Everyone in the company knew that their big boss was not in a good mood these days and that Pei Ge’s name was a taboo, yet these two, ignorant women just had to blabber on about their relationship and even scolded their boss’s former fiancée.

They were simply finding their lives too long.

“Secretary Du, w-we were just feeling indignant for the CEO.”

The two were about to cry. How could they know that, just by casually mentioning that woman, they would get fired?

Was it not rumored that their CEO did not like that fiancée and abandoned her?

Why, then, did he not let anyone badmouth her?

The two did not even know the reason for them being fired!

After settling the two female employees’ matter, the secretary hastily kept up with his boss.

Recalling how the man had just fired two employees without blinking, he could guess that he would not end well, too.

Entering the office following the man, he nervously pursed his lips and spoke softly. “Sir, on Miss Qiao’s side… our people accidentally gave her the chance to run away.”

“Heh… Run away?”

The man narrowed his apathetic eyes as they flashed with coldness.

“With so many people watching her, they actually let her escape…”

The subordinate trembled and felt his body turn weak the moment his boss swept his eyes on him.

“My-My apologies, sir! Miss Qiao apparently has people in that hospital… We didn’t expect—”

“Didn’t expect?”

His superior shot him a cutting look, echoing his words icily.

“…”

Countless beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, but he did not dare to wipe them.

Right now, he only felt as though a frightening beast were staring at him.

For some reason, ever since Pei Ge’s disappearance, he felt that his superior’s personality had changed a lot.

Although the man looked cold even in the past, he did not make one feel frightened like this.

However, right now, he made people feel as if he could kill them anytime.

It was as though… that woman’s departure had made him apathetic.

His iciness this time… was absolute… to the point of ruthlessness.

“Get lost!”

“…Sir, please take it easy.”

Despite feeling endless fear inside, he still comforted his boss concernedly.

“Get lost. This time, if you guys fail to handle even Pei Shishi’s side, then don’t bother appearing in front of me again.”

The man merely swept him a sharp and cold gaze.

His voice was filled with boundless fury and coldness.

“Yes, sir! As for Miss Qiao…”

He tried asking about the woman, who had disappeared entirely while pregnant.

The mention of the woman made Ji Ziming’s face turn dark and gloomy, and his eyes even seemed to be filled with an untamable disgust.

“Tell the Qiao family: If she gives birth to that child, their family will return to where they came from.”

His words were calm and even, yet Du Wen felt murderous intent from him.

Obviously, what his boss meant was that that family would return to their poor beginnings.

With how they had risen to their present status under the Ji family’s support, how could that family resign themselves?

“Understood, sir.”

With that, he quickly left the man’s office.

Only after he had stepped out of the office did the secretary feel himself come alive somewhat.

“Sigh!”

He let out a long sigh, feeling complex inside.

What is all this… Sir was clearly about to get married with Miss Pei, but it actually ended up in this way.

That Miss Qiao’s methods are truly commendable.

She actually managed to split a loving couple apart.

Still, in the end, she probably didn’t expect to end up like this.

Whenever he recalled how his boss stormed into Qiao Jingyun’s ward yesterday, telling her in a cold and spiteful voice that, even if she became infertile after aborting the child, he would still order its abortion, and the shock the woman had then, he could not help but think that she was quite pitiful…

It did not matter that she was carrying the CEO’s child. It only made his boss feel disgust and hate for her.

Thus, what of her running away? Even her family had been implicated at this point. It was such that, even if the child was aborted, they would be unable to become better off.

However, if that woman truly dared to give birth to the child, then…

Still, since their CEO had already warned them, that woman would likely not have the guts to keep carrying the child.

Even if she wanted to, her family would likely not let her do so.

For some reason, when he thought of this, the assistant felt uncertain.

That was because he did not dare to belittle that woman’s tactics.

Simply based on how she could split apart a loving couple, who was about to get married, one could see how superb her tricks were.

As he thought of this, he realized that this was not the time for him to consider these things.

Now, what he needed to settle was—

Pei Shishi.

At this point, his eyebrows moved slightly as he took out his phone.

“Hello. What’s the situation on Liu Yan’s side?

“She signed the confession? Great. Remember to ask that side to add a few more years of imprisonment to her sentence—the most severe punishment for her crime if possible.

“That’s the CEO’s order. Follow it as it is.”

After passing down this order to the person on the other end, he hung up. A light flashed past his eyes then.

“This time…”

My boss is truly and thoroughly enraged…
