“Well, I’m Qiu Yuxin’s younger cousin, so I’m Miss Qiu as well!” Qiu Lili argued, although she hated to be related to Qiu Yuxin.
“So what? You still need to apologize to me,” Gu Ning said.
“You…” Qiu Lili was shocked. She couldn’t believe that Gu Ning wasn’t scared of her!
Onlookers around them were also surprised.
Qiu Lili visited here often, so she was a familiar face. Even though she was chased out of the core of the Qiu family, she was still a member of it.
People were all curious about Gu Ning’s family background now. Since Gu Ning dared to argue against Qiu Lili, she had to be from a family that is a lot more powerful than Qiu Lili’s.
Because of their loud argument, a security guard came out at once.
“Ladies, please don’t argue here,” the security guard said in a polite tone.
“It’s not my fault, this Miss Qiu just knocked into me and made my phone fall on the ground. She even refused to apologize to me,” Gu Ning said, then glanced at her phone lying on the ground, but had no intention to pick it up. Gu Ning wouldn’t submit to humiliation.
“Miss Qiu, is that true?” the security guard asked Qiu Lili.
“So what?” Qiu Lili was still arrogant.
“Miss Qiu, if it’s the truth, you should apologize to this lady. You were born in the Qiu family, and you should be a well-educated lady, right?” the security guard said.
“Who do you think you are? How dare you criticize me?” Qiu Lili got mad at once.
The security guard wasn’t annoyed at all after being humiliated by Qiu Lili, but still stayed calm. “Miss Qiu, I’m just a common security guard, but I’m in charge of the peace here. If you disturb the peace, I have the right and it’s also my duty to solve the problem. So, please apologize to this lady right now, or I’ll report your actions to my leader.”
“You…” Qiu Lili was struck dumb, but she still refused to apologize. “I’m the fiancée of your HR manager, and I can tell him to fire you!”
The HR department, especially its manager, did have the authority to fire a common staff member. However, this security guard had done nothing wrong, and Qiu Lili wasn’t working in the company. If the HR manager dared to fire the security guard, it would be an abuse of power.
“I don’t think it’s possible according to the rules in our company. If it really happens, I’m willing to leave here myself,” the security guard argued.
“Well put! You’re an upright man. If you’re really fired, I’ll hire you with a much higher salary,” Gu Ning said. She sensed that the security guard must be a retired soldier instead of an ordinary man.
In fact, Gu Ning knew that it wasn’t possible that he would be fired, but it was also true that she was willing to hire him.
The salary of a security guard wasn’t high even though they were in City B, which was a large advanced city, so Gu Ning could afford a much higher salary for him. He could still be a security guard and work for Gu Ning.
Anyway, it was a piece of good news for the security guard.
The security guard was surprised, but he had a feeling that Gu Ning wasn’t joking.
“You?” Qiu Lili snorted with laughter.
“Yes, me. Let’s see!” Gu Ning sneered at Qiu Lili, then picked her phone up to call Quan Mingkai.
Qiu Lili understood that Gu Ning was asking for help, but she wasn’t afraid at all. At the same time, she called her fiancé too.
Quan Mingkai was in Tang Yunfan’s office when Gu Ning called him.
“It’s Gu Ning,” Quan Mingkai said.
“Answer it.” Tang Yunfan was aware that Gu Ning was coming, so he wasn’t surprised.
“Hi, Lady Ning, have you arrived?” Quan Mingkai asked.
“Yeah, I’m in the hall now, but something unpleasant happened. Would you please come here in person?” Gu Ning asked.
Gu Ning needed Quan Mingkai’s help.
“Sure, I’ll be there in a minute,” Quan Mingkai said at once.
“Boss, Lady Ning is in the hall now, but she told me that something unpleasant just happened, and that I need to go there in person.” Quan Mingkai reported it to Tang Yunfan.
Hearing that, Tang Yunfan was displeased. “I’ll go with you.”
He wouldn’t allow anyone else to take advantage of his daughter, especially when Gu Ning came here for the first time.
Therefore, Quan Mingkai followed Tang Yunfan downstairs.
