Dialogue from the phone continued to play until Zhao Youxi could be heard clearly trying to grab the thing while shouting furiously. Every word was clear, and all had been recorded on mobile phones.
Zhao Youulin had already heard Zhao Youxi shout outside. So, he used a glass bottle to provoke Zhao Youxi to tell the truth. At the same time, he also planned to record everything he said.
As soon as Zhao Youxi entered his office, Zhao Youlin quietly turned on the recorder on her phone. The reason why he provoked Zhao Youxi was because he knew Zhao Youxi was quick to anger and rashly. A little provocation might be enough for Zhao Youxi to lose her reason. Fortunately, they were within arm's reach as he searched for information, so he could record his words clearly.
Zhao Youlin knew that the glass bottles as well as the surveillance cameras inside the building could not provide sufficient evidence to punish Zhao Youxi for her crimes. Moreover, there was still too much uncertainty in the air. What happens if Zhao Youxi manages to find a silver-tongued lawyer to defend her, or what if something happens to the evidence when the police are involved in the investigation? Anything was possible for Zhao Youxi to get out of her desperate situation.
Instead of facing various changes back then, Zhao Youlin might as well burn Zhao Youxi's bridge and make her confess to the terrible deeds she had done. With that, he would lose the possibility of retracting his confession.
Zhao Youulin looked at Zhao Youxi coldly, whose expression grew increasingly problematic as the phone played more conversations. Zhao Youlin stopped the recording and stuffed the phone into her pocket. Then, he smiled faintly and said, "If the fingerprints on the glass bottle aren't enough to serve as evidence of a crime, what about the tape containing your own confession ..."
"You…!" Zhao Youxi was furious. He was already frustrated over the evidence of the crime being left behind because of his own mistakes. Little did he know that Zhao Youlin had dug a hole and persuaded him to jump into it. Nothing is more frustrating than this.
“Addiction words, never think of taking my things. You should know better than me about your standards and mine. A person should at least have some skills if he wants to take something away from me. And you, as it happens, have no skills!”
Zhao Youxi looked at Zhao Youlin's arrogant face. For the first time ...he realized that maybe, he was wrong.
If this was the past, even if Zhao Youxi was repeatedly reminded by her own rationality that the Zhao Youulin before her was now an extremely dangerous woman, she said, Zhao Youxi would still instinctively treat her as the once cowardly girl in the Zhao family, who could only be ridiculed, beaten up and scolded by Li Hongyu and herself. However, today, for the first time ... she discovered that Zhao Youlin was truly a changed woman.
Zhao Youxi should have realized that Zhao Youlin was completely different from her previous self since she divorced and when she caused trouble to Zhao Youlin for the first time. Maybe he changed early.
Zhao Youlin did not pay attention to how Zhao Youxi's current conflicts and worries were. Zhao Youlin had already gotten what she wanted. He had achieved his goal and hence, there was no need to continue wasting his breath with Zhao Youxi.
"Actually, I don't have to put you in jail."
Zhao Youxi suddenly looked up when she heard this. His eyes twinkled, but they were also filled with vigilance as he stared at Zhao Youlin.
'What is this?! Is this the carrot and stick approach?!’ Zhao Youxi did not believe that the woman would be so kind-hearted as to save her unconditionally. If Zhao Youlin was really kind-hearted, she wouldn't have gone through all the trouble to try to get information from him at first.
One had to say that Zhao Youxi was smart this time, which was rare.
Zhao Youlin saw a hint of caution in Zhao Youxi's gaze. His eyes sparkled and he said cynically, “No matter what, you are still considered a part of the Zhao family. Zhao Enterprise's stock price might drop if a deliberate murder scandal spreads. As the general manager of Zhao Enterprise, I will naturally place my company as a priority. Since this incident can risk the interests of the company, it is better to settle this among ourselves personally.”
Zhao Youxi felt a sense of cruelty in Zhao Youlin's words. He shuddered, gritted his teeth, and said, "What do you want?"
Zhao Youulin glared at Zhao Youxi and stated his goal, “I want you to leave Zhao Enterprise. Moreover, from now on, you will never set foot on the Zhao Enterprise again for the rest of your life."
"What?!" Zhao Youxi's pupils shrank as soon as she heard Zhao Youulin's words. He jerked forward a little as if he wanted to lung at Zhao Youlin. However, he stopped, because he was afraid of the highly skilled Zhao Youlin.
“In fact, I actually have that right.” Zhao Youlin smiled. He took the initiative and walked over to Zhao Youxi. She pretended to be mysterious and said, “Zhao Enterprise is something that is so tempting in your eyes that you can't wait to have it. But that's nothing to me. Even so, I still joined. Do you want to know why?”
Zhao Youxi's lips twitched. He stared wide-eyed as Zhao Youlin walked over to him.
Zhao Youlin clearly wore a warm smile on her face. However, Zhao Youxi felt a tremor crawl down her spine and get to her head. He unconsciously shivered.
Zhao Youxi gulped with difficulty and asked doubtfully, "Why?"
"Why? Of course, it's all because Grandpa gave me the greatest comfort here — absolute rights to fire people. Ever heard those words? It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it. After all, the general idea was that Grandfather had given me the right. The right that says other than my father, who is the president of the company, as long as I find unpleasant people, including directors, I can fire them without asking for approval from my superiors and ask them to leave immediately.”
"How ... is it possible?" Zhao Youxi took two steps back in horror and disbelief.
"What's? You don't believe it?" Zhao Youulin maliciously approached Zhao Youxi and as expected, Zhao Youxi retreated a few steps in panic. The corner of Zhao Youulin's lips curved upwards, and he said, “No problem, you will soon be able to experience it. Li, get me two security guards.”
Li was the secretary who blocked Zhao Youxi outside.
When Zhao Youxi heard Zhao Youlin call the security guard, her expression slightly changed. A bad feeling crawled over him, and he said, "What are you calling the security guards for?"
"Of course I want to ..." Zhao Youlin smiled mockingly. At that moment, Li pushed the door open and entered with two security guards.
"General manager."
Zhao Youlin nodded at the three people. Then, he pointed at Zhao Youxi and said, "Send Miss Zhao now."
Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, Li and the others inside the office froze.
"General Manager, you mean sending Zhao out of the office?"
Zhao Youlin glared at her secretary with a reproach and added, "No, what I mean is to drive her away from Zhao Enterprise, understand?"
“Eh... Understood.”
"Zhao Youlin, how dare you ?!" Zhao Youlin was stunned for quite some time before she gasped from a daze after hearing Zhao Youlin's words.
“I really dare to do it. Zhao Youxi, let me tell you clearly ..." Zhao Youlin narrowed her eyes and said each word clearly, "You're Fired!"
