Metropolis: It’s a showdown, I am the richest man in the world

Li Lingwei suddenly fell to her knees, hugging her boss's legs tightly with both hands, tears sliding down her cheeks.

"Boss, please don't fire me. I really have nowhere to go."

Her voice was full of helplessness and despair, like a drowning person struggling in the abyss.

The boss looked at her with a trace of hesitation in his eyes, but thinking of Lin Yuan's background and strength, he became cruel and kicked Li Lingwei away.

"Li Lingwei, this is your own fault! Who made you offend Boss Lin!"

His words were cold and ruthless, like a sharp blade piercing Li Lingwei's heart.

Li Lingwei fell to the ground, covering her face with her hands, tears pouring out like a fountain.

Li Lingwei's face was full of fear and anxiety. She walked up to Lin Yuan, bowed deeply, and begged with a trembling voice.

"Boss Lin, Xiaoshuang, please forgive me. I really know I was wrong."

She raised her head, her eyes red and full of pleading.

Her hands were clasped together, as if looking for a sense of security.

Her body trembled slightly, as if a gust of wind could blow her down.

Lin Yuan looked at her, a trace of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

He was silent for a while, and then spoke slowly: "Now that you know you were wrong, what can you do? Can you take back what you said? You should have learned that it's hard to recover when you overturn something."

"Boss Lin, I promise there will be no next time. Please forgive me!"

Lin Yuan's eyes were like ice, without any warmth.

He glanced at Li Lingwei lightly, his eyes seeming to say, your begging is meaningless to me.

When the boss saw this, he immediately waved his hands to signal his men to take action.

Two burly security guards came forward, one on the left and one on the right standing next to Li Lingwei.

Their eyes were cold and devoid of any sympathy.

"Li Lingwei, Boss Lin has decided, you should go."

There was a trace of unquestionable determination in the boss's voice.

The security guards didn't say much. They held Li Lingwei's arms on the left and right.

Li Lingwei struggled, but her strength seemed so insignificant in front of the two security guards.

Her eyes were full of despair and unwillingness, but none of this could change her fate of being deported.

Lin Yuan watched Li Lingwei being taken away, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

He turned around and sat back in his seat, continuing to enjoy the food.

The atmosphere in the restaurant gradually returned to calm, as if the scene just now was just an episode.

The boss walked to Lin Yuan and said with a smile on his face.

"Boss Lin, I'm sorry for frightening you."

Lin Yuan smiled faintly and said nothing.

The boss didn't care and continued to talk to himself.

"I've asked the chef to prepare a few special dishes for you."

With that said, he waved over a waiter and gave a few instructions in a low voice.

The waiter nodded and left, and soon brought out plates of delicious, delicious dishes.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

He picked up his chopsticks and began to taste these special dishes.

Liu Xiaoshuang followed closely behind, sitting quietly next to Lin Yuan, eating her meal carefully.

The two occasionally exchanged a few words, their voices low and gentle, as if they were afraid of breaking the peaceful atmosphere.

The surrounding diners were chatting and laughing, or lowering their heads to taste the food. No one noticed the quiet and harmonious scene in this corner.

After Lin Yuan and Liu Xiaoshuang finished eating, they left the restaurant quietly. Lin Yuan gave her a day off and asked her to have a good rest. Then the two said goodbye and Lin Yuan returned to the gold store.

The lighting in the store is soft, and the glittering jewelry is even more dazzling under the light.

Lin Yuan strolled into the store, and the employees greeted him with respectful smiles on their faces.

He walked up to a female employee who was arranging the counter and asked softly.

"Xiaofang, let me ask you something, how is Liu Xiaoshuang's daily life? Why does she live so frugally as a store manager?"

Xiaofang was stunned when she heard this, looked up at Lin Yuan, then quickly lowered her head, her voice hesitant: "Boss Lin, why do you suddenly ask about this?"

"It's nothing. I just want to see if the salary I gave her is wrong because of her frugality?"

Upon seeing this, the clerk quickly explained.

"No, it's not that the salary you gave me, Boss Lin, is wrong, it's because of Sister Xiaoshuang..."

"What's wrong with her? If there's really a problem, just tell me so I can help her."

"Sister Xiaoshuang's father has gone in, and she is the only one left at home with her mother. My aunt is bedridden and has no way to work, so it has always been Sister Xiaoshuang who has been struggling to support her."

"What?! Why does she never mention this kind of thing?"

"Do the poor people still have to show little sympathy for their own affairs? We only found out about it when we went to see Sister Xiaoshuang once during the holidays, and when we went there, we also heard more things about Sister Xiaoshuang from our neighbors. ”

"Hmm? What's going on?"

"Sister Xiaoshuang has actually been admitted to a prestigious university, but she was replaced by someone else. She is really very capable. Boss Lin, you have also seen how well she manages the store. It's a pity that her talent has nowhere to display... ....”

"I know about this. Don't tell her what I asked you here. I will find a way to help her."

"Well, I hope Boss Lin can make Sister Xiaoshuang not have such a hard time."

"Don't worry, you guys will work hard and your salary will be raised sooner or later."

"Well! Thank you, Boss Lin."

Alas, I wouldn’t have known if I didn’t come here, Sister Xiaoshuang is such a miserable person.

It seems that I will have to find an opportunity to have a good chat with Sister Xiaoshuang in the future, and she is so talented. It is really wronging her to stay in this gold shop. If she is really good, it would be good to train her to be my second-in-command.

Lin Yuan thought a lot and finally left the gold store.

Since there is nothing going on today anyway, and my girlfriend has also gone to play with her best friends, I will go to the Star Reaching Agency to have a look.

Lin Yuan's car slowly drove into the parking lot of the Star Reaching Agency. He opened the door and felt the afternoon breeze caressing his cheeks.

The sun shines through the sparse clouds and onto the ground, forming mottled light and shadow.

He straightened his clothes and walked towards the company door with steady steps.

When he entered the company, the lady at the front desk immediately showed a respectful smile and greeted him softly when she saw him.

Lin Yuan nodded and glanced across the rest area inadvertently, but unexpectedly saw Gu Zhirou's figure.

She sat there, quietly flipping through a magazine, and the sunlight shone on her face through the window, outlining her soft outlines.

Her eyes were deep and bright, as if she could see into people's hearts. Sensing Lin Yuan's gaze, she raised her head and smiled at him.

"Mr. Lin, why are you here?"

"Huh? I shouldn't ask you this, right? How do you reach for the stars?"
