"Go on, I’d like to hear your thoughts.""I’ve said it before, the way the second group does live streaming isn’t right. Sooner or later something’s going to happen. Look at what’s happening now; just as I predicted. In my opinion, let’s not let them stream anymore to avoid embarrassing our 4S shop."
Li Huaiming finished speaking and looked at Lin Yi.
"Lin Yi, it’s not that I’m not helping you, but such a big incident has happened, and the company’s reputation will be affected. As a member of the company, I can only speak from the company’s perspective. You’re a mature person; you should understand my good intentions. I’m doing this for the company’s good."
Lin Yi nodded with a smile.
"You’re right. If I can’t even understand this, it would show that I lack insight."
"It’s good that you think this way."
While the two of them were talking, Chen Lin’s expression was unpleasant, but Li Huaiming didn’t notice.
"Their account was suspended because someone reported them. You know that, right?"
"I know," Li Huaiming replied,
"Their streaming style isn’t good, and some people think it affects societal ethos, so they reported it. This is very normal."
After pausing, Li Huaiming continued,
"I’ve told him before to ask me if there’s anything he didn’t understand. But Lin Yi loves to save face and never asked me. Now that something like this has happened, I find it regrettable too."
"But the problem is, Lin Yi is handsome, and even though He Li crosses the line a bit, many men like to watch them. Their followers are all adults, so I can’t quite understand why someone would report them."
"This..."
Chen Lin’s analysis made Li Huaiming pause.
"If it wasn’t these people, then it might be competitors. Who can say for sure? It’s something that can’t be verified."
"Something that can’t be verified..."
Chen Lin looked at Li Huaiming, "So, do you think this should just be left unresolved?"
"How can we let it be unresolved," Li Huaiming said seriously,
"This behavior brought a negative impact to the store, and it must be dealt with seriously."
After speaking, Li Huaiming looked at Lin Yi with feigned sincerity.
"Lin Yi, I’m doing this for the company’s good, you should understand, right? This isn’t intentionally targeting you."
"I understand," Lin Yi said, "You have a point. Doing as you say is completely fine."
Seeing Lin Yi give up resisting made Li Huaiming feel even more smug.
He had suffered several losses before at Lin Yi’s hands, but today he finally managed to turn the tables.
Chen Lin, resting her head in one hand, didn’t look at Li Huaiming but at several pieces of A4 paper on the table.
"It indeed needs to be handled seriously."
"Is this what President Chen thinks too?"
"Tell me your thoughts. How should we handle it seriously."
"This..."
Li Huaiming paused and looked at Lin Yi, "Shall I speak candidly? You wouldn’t mind, would you?"
Lin Yi made a gesture of invitation.
"You may as well say it."
"Ahem..."
Clearing his throat, Li Huaiming said,
"I think we should deduct their salaries to prevent them from making such mistakes again." He continued,
"Although this isn’t the best solution."
"Take your time; what’s the best solution?"
Li Huaiming’s eyes flickered, "Actually, the best solution is to fire them!"
"Fire them?"
Hearing this, Chen Lin frowned.
Not because the punishment was too severe, but because it caused significant doubts about Li Huaiming’s character.
If such a thing did happen, an appropriate fine would be enough. It really wouldn’t warrant dismissal.
And his approach exposed his character fully.
"Are you sure about firing?"
"I think it sets a good example for everyone, preventing such things from happening again in the future."
After saying this, Li Huaiming looked at Lin Yi again and said insincerely,
"Lin Yi, I’m really not targeting you, but you went too far this time. It’s the only way to remind everyone. I hope you don’t blame me."
"I won’t," Lin Yi replied with a smile.
Chen Lin didn’t continue on this topic but instead asked Li Huaiming,
"If you had to choose, would you choose a fine or dismissal?"
"If I were in President Chen’s position, I’d choose dismissal. A rotten apple can’t be kept; it will cause trouble sooner or later."
"Okay, since that’s your own choice, go pack your things. I’ll call HR and have your salary settled."
Li Huaiming felt pleased, smiling as he looked at Lin Yi.
He was in an incredibly good mood.
It seems his standing in President Chen’s eyes is still very high.
"Lin Yi, the decision on the punishment is made, go pack your things."
Li Huaiming felt great.
He had thought it would just be a simple fine.
He never imagined casually mentioning it would result in dismissal.
How thrilling!
"I wasn’t talking about firing Lin Yi, but you."
"Huh?"
On hearing this, Li Huaiming was dumbfounded.
"President Chen, what do you mean?"
Chen Lin pushed several sheets of A4 paper across the table.
"The account was suspended because someone reported it from behind. The reporter’s accounts are all here. Look at the first one; doesn’t it look familiar?"
When he picked up the A4 papers and saw the first account, Li Huaiming’s expression changed.
It was his own account!
Additionally, the content and reason for the report were also displayed.
"President, President Chen, where did you get this information..."
"Where I got it doesn’t matter; what matters is that the person who made the report was you, which makes the nature of it different."
Li Huaiming was struck dumb, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"You’ve been here for a long time, almost as long as me,"
Chen Lin sighed,
"We share a bond, but this path was your own choice. You didn’t want the chance when it was given to you, so you can’t blame me."
"President Chen, I was wrong about this, I shouldn’t have been jealous of Lin Yi and reported him secretly. Please give me another chance."
Chen Lin shook her head, "The chance was already given. Dismissal was your own choice. Now, pack your things and leave with dignity."
Li Huaiming’s face fell.
Only now did he realize they had already set a trap, just waiting for him to fall in.
"Lin Yi, was this your scheme!"
"You did it yourself, so how can you say it’s my scheme," Lin Yi replied,
"That’s why you shouldn’t do things against your conscience. No one else got hurt, but you ended up hurting yourself. Go pack your things."
With a dark expression, Li Huaiming left with a threat on his lips, devoid of any contrition.
"You just wait, Lin Yi. This isn’t over between us!"
"I’ll be here waiting. Bring it on anytime."
Li Huaiming stormed out angrily, leaving the office in silence.
Chen Lin looked at the list on the table.
"Actually, I’m a bit curious too. How did you get hold of this information? This should belong to the platform’s internal data and shouldn’t be leaked easily."
