Chapter 193: B*tch Fang Smacked In The Face!
Chu Cichen’s vision suddenly turned sharp.
Fang Panxia’s heart was pounding from being stared at by Chu Cichen.
It was very rare for Chu Cichen to lose his temper. Basically, he was someone with good control over his emotions. However, his aura was very strong and no one dared to antagonize him.
Hence, this was her first time seeing Chu Cichen angry.
Right now, she felt as though her legs didn’t belong to her. Her body involuntarily began trembling.
Luckily, Chu Cichen retracted his gaze as though he couldn’t be bothered to even glance at her. He directly walked away and only then did Fang Panxia regain control of her body.
She panted heavily and quickly followed behind Chu Cichen.
At this moment, the two of them saw Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng was coincidentally bringing Li Dongzhe over. When he saw Chu Cichen, the two of them halted their steps.
Lu Cheng introduced Chu Cichen and Li Dongzhe to each other. After both of them greeted each other, Chu Cichen and Lu Cheng began searching for Charles.
This time around, Fang Panxia didn’t follow them. She impatiently asked, “Senior, where is our teacher?”
Li Dongzhe replied, “Ah? I don’t know. He said that he had something on and he immediately went away after we arrived. What’s the matter?”
Right now, Fang Panxia urgently needed her teacher to help her. When she heard this, a bitter smile couldn’t help but appear on her face.
Li Dongzhe’s nature was simple, so he couldn’t help but press her. “What’s the matter? You don’t have to look for Teacher if you have something you need help with. I can help you too.”
Fang Panxia sighed. “Didn’t I offend Miss Shen because of this matter? Earlier, Bro Chen said that he wanted to fire me…”
“What?” Li Dongzhe frowned. “Is this a misunderstanding? In addition, before the transmissible disease broke out, who would have believed those rumors? He is a businessman with a high net worth, why would he bother to be so calculative with a little lady like you? Wait here, I’ll go and speak up for you.”
Li Dongzhe pulled Fang Panxia along as he directly went to look for Lu Cheng.
He wasn’t qualified to argue with Chu Cichen. However, because Lu Cheng was together with Chu Cichen, Chu Cichen could still hear his words since Li Dongzhe’s voice wasn’t low.
“…My teacher suddenly decided to come to China and head straight for the Chu Corporation the moment he landed. He told my junior sister he’s willing to stay, and everything he has done was for my junior sister’s sake. How can you guys fire her like that? If you want to fire my junior sister, you might as well fire me along with her! I believe that if our teacher leads us to do research overseas, we will definitely be better off compared to doing research in this country!
“I don’t know anything about company strategies or the schemes running through your mind. However, I don’t see any weaknesses in my junior sister, only her passion for research. Didn’t she simply offend Miss Shen? Capitalists like you guys are simply too tyrannical.
“In any case, I’ll make things clear today. You want my junior sister to leave? Sure. My teacher and I will bring all our research results and leave with her!”
Chu Cichen narrowed his eyes.
He knew that Li Dongzhe said these words for him to listen to.
Lu Cheng placated Li Dongzhe. After that, he smiled bitterly and went to Chu Cichen. “Bro Chen, why don’t we give Fang Panxia another chance? At most, we will just let her idle and treat her like a mascot. In any case, it isn’t as if we cannot afford this bit of salary.”
Chu Cichen pursed his lips.
Before he could say anything, Fang Panxia already walked over.
She had her head lowered as though she realized she had made a mistake. She didn’t dare to threaten the two of them again. “Bro Chen, Ah Cheng, I know my actions have disappointed you guys. I’ve reflected on my mistakes. If it wasn’t for the Chu Corporation’s financial aid, I wouldn’t be able to pay for my study expenses overseas. However, this time around, I failed to complete Bro Chen’s mission and didn’t manage to discover more things from Dugu Xiao. I also didn’t produce any good results when the Chu Corporation was in a crisis. This is my fault.”
Her eyes were red now. “However, my heart belongs to the Chu Corporation. Bro Chen, please give me another chance. My teacher, my senior, and I are all very fond of the Chu Corporation. They don’t wish to leave…”
After hearing her words, Lu Cheng sighed and looked at Chu Cichen.
Chu Cichen merely stared at her and didn’t speak.
Fang Panxia seemed like she wanted to outdo herself. She directly continued, “In addition, I thought of a method that can make the Chu Corporation stronger!”
Lu Cheng started. “What’s the solution?”
Fang Panxia glanced around and lowered her voice. “We only have 300,000 heat dispersal pills right now, and Sea City has a total of millions of people. They would be infected sooner or later. Why don’t we ensure that the transmissible disease spreads to other cities and causes the entire country to be filled with panic? There are billions of people in our country, and as long as everyone purchases a single heat dispersal pill, the Chu Corporation will become the overlord of the pharmaceutical industry!”
Fang Panxia lifted her head and her eyes gleamed brightly. “Bro Chen, Ah Cheng, originally, the transmissible disease was caused by someone. Even if this matter spreads, we can make things look as though it has nothing to do with us. The relevant departments won’t be able to investigate and trace things back to us!”
After these words were spoken, Lu Cheng revealed a look of disbelief.
Honestly speaking, everyone was in a hurry to suppress something like the transmissible disease.
When the Chu Corporation was producing the heat dispersal pills and before there was an outbreak, Lu Cheng didn’t even think of this. And when the first case was discovered, he did indeed feel joy at that moment.
However, he was only joyful because the insinuations that the Chu Corporation was spreading rumors were proven false! The Chu Corporation no longer needed to be a scapegoat.
He had never felt any joy at the thought of the transmissible disease spreading.
Everyone knew that this was a calamity for humanity!
Why was Fang Panxia so bold? How was this possible? In fact, how could she even bring herself to speak of such a ‘solution’?!
His expression tensed, and his thought of pleading mercy for her vanished completely.
Chu Cichen’s expression also turned black.
Fang Panxia and Shen Ruojing’s attitude when they spoke about the transmissible disease was completely different. This made him even more determined.
He directly said, “Scram.”
Fang Panxia. “?”
After seeing the expression on Chu Cichen and Lu Cheng’s faces, Fang Panxia finally realized their thoughts about the ‘solution’ she just proposed.
She remarked in shock. “Bro Chen, you are a businessman!”
Chu Cichen didn’t say anything.
Yet, Lu Cheng replied, “Correct, we are businessmen but firstly we are humans! And you, you are even worse than a beast! Fang Panxia, I’ve truly judged you wrongly. We are not people walking on the same path. Let’s part ways!”
Fang Panxia clenched her fists. “If you guys chase me away, my teacher will leave as well!”
“Leave then,” Chu Cichen calmly spoke.
Charles was a rare elite in the pharmaceutical and medical industry. If his personality was like Fang Panxia, Chu Cichen couldn’t care less.
He glanced around and suddenly discovered that Charles was speaking with someone up ahead. The person speaking with him stood in a corner, so the few of them couldn’t see who it was.
Chu Cichen began striding over with huge steps.
Fang Panxia hurriedly followed him. “Bro Chen, Ah Cheng, you guys should think it through properly. You won’t be able to invite a talent like my teacher over no matter how much you spend. Are you guys really willing to give him up?”
“Mr. Charles.”
Chu Cichen spoke.
When Charles heard someone calling him, he turned his head over.
After seeing Chu Cichen, he was slightly shocked. “CEO Chu?”
“Correct.” Chu Cichen walked toward him and spoke directly, “Fang Panxia’s thoughts are not aligned with our company’s values. We decided to fire her. If you wish to leave with her, I’ll prepare a generous severance package for you. Just treat this as a token sum to thank you for your time in China…”
This could be considered the respect Chu Cichen had for researchers.
Charles was stunned. “Me, leave with her?”
Fang Panxia’s heart was like dead ashes. She knew she had no more hope left. Hence, she decided to go to Charles, and she spoke while sobbing, “Teacher, don’t be sad. I know that America has always wanted you to work there. We can go there and things will definitely be better compared to here!”
Charles. “??”
He was dumbfounded. “Who said that I am going to leave with you? CEO Chu, can it be that the pharmaceutical factory no longer requires my service? Do you have to fire me along with her? Can’t I stay?”
Everyone. “???”
