Strike Back, Proud Goddess! Chapter 120

Qiao Liang narrowed his eyes and spoke to Xiao Hongli again . “Secretary Xiao, are you having a morning jog?”

Xiao Hongli replied with a nod, “Yes, my family has the habit of getting up early for exercise . It's good for health . ”

Qiao Liang also nodded, looked at the villa beside Xiao Hongli's and smiled as he asked, “Who is living next to your house? They don't go on morning jogs?”

“It's an overseas Chinese family . They're currently abroad and rarely come back . I hardly meet them,” Xiao Hongli answered . “President Qiao, why don't you have breakfast with us?”

Qiao Liang shook his head . “No, I have something to attend to . I must go now . ” He turned around, but then looked back and said, “Secretary Xiao, please tell Xiao Jing not to drive to work . I'll be driving his car to the company, so he can drive it home when he gets off work in the afternoon . ”

Xiao Hongli nodded with a smile in response and continued to run . Sitting in the car, Qiao Liang made a phone call . Soon someone answered and Qiao Liang ordered coldly, “Give me Xiao Jing's attendance record in recent years . ”

“Why do you need it, President Qiao?”

“Just bring it to me,” Qiao Liang said coldly, hanging up the call .

Xiao Jing was awakened from his sweet dreams by a phone call . He answered the phone grumpily and said coldly, “You'd better have something big to tell me!”

“Xiao Jing, I just want to tell you that if you don't come to work on time today yet again, your bonus of 30 million yuan this year will be gone, and your salary will also be deducted accordingly . ” Qiao Liang's cold voice came from the telephone . “I hire you to work, not to fool around . ”

Clatter… He had hung up the call .

Xiao Jing was sitting on his bed with a confused face and messy hair . If it were not for the fact that he was holding a mobile phone in his hand, he would have thought he was dreaming . Suddenly, he thought of something and shouted loudly sitting on his bed, “Qiao Liang, I'm gonna kill you!”

He had just abused his power to retaliate against him!

Oh, sh*t, he said he was going to deduct his bonus! Besides his thirty million yuan bonus, he would also deduct his salary!

I'm going to jump ship!

Then a noise came from the other side of the wall, followed by a growl from Xiao Sa . “Shut up! I'm sleeping!”

Xiao Jing became even angrier, jumped up from the bed and kicked fiercely at the wall .  I can't sleep, so you can't sleep either .  The more he thought about it, the angrier he became . In the end, he simply opened the door of his room and rushed over to Xiao Sa's, shouting, “Why must I go to work while you can sleep?!”

“Because the company is mine, and I have the final say . ” Xiao Sa glanced at Xiao Jing with sleepy eyes and gloated, “An employee like you won't be able to understand employers . ” Then he laughed and asked, “Why did you mess with Qiao Liang? You should feel lucky that he doesn't pull you out of bed and toss you over to the company . ”

Being hurt by his own brother after being picked on by his boss, Xiao Jing was on the verge of being devastated . He rushed up to Xiao Sa and pounced on him, hugging onto him tightly with his hands and feet and saying pitifully, “Sa, I'm your brother, right?”

Xiao Sa attempted to kick him away, shouting, “What do you want?”

Xiao Jing hugged onto him even more tightly . “Sa, how about I go to work in your company? I can be a game tester . I'm going to the company now to hand my resignation to Qiao Liang . ”

Xiao Sa pushed at him hard, saying, “Go away, I don't want you . ” With a sudden effort, he pushed Xiao Jing down from the bed . Xiao Jing sat on the ground dumbfounded and stared at Xiao Sa as he asked, “How dare you kick me off the bed!”

The corner of Xiao Sa's eyes twitched . “Please, don't go mad in my room, okay? Go wash your face and go to work . ”

Xiao Jing remained sitting on the ground, unmoving . “Why don't you go to work, while I have to go to work?”

“Because Yao is on leave, I'm the boss, so I can go whenever I want to go, and Rourou is also taking leave to recuperate…” Xiao Sa replied, looking at Xiao Jing as if he were looking at a poor little boy . He continued, “As for you, you messed with Qiao Liang, even though you happen to be his subordinate, so accept your fate and kneel down to your boss, Brother . ”

Xiao Jing suddenly jumped up from the ground and shouted to Xiao Sa excitedly, “Sa, let's take Rourou to settle abroad so that Qiao Liang can't find us all his life, and then I'll be able to get my revenge!” How dare he abuse his power to pick on him?! D*mn it!

The corner of Xiao Sa's eyes twitched . “Brother, don't act like a baby, okay? My company is just starting now . I don't want to go bankrupt . ” He stood up and patted Xiao Jing on the shoulder, adding, “Besides, do you think Qiao Liang wouldn't be able to find us? And do you think Rourou is so gullible? Be good, my brother . Listen to me . Don't be stupid . Don't seek death . ”

Xiao Jing, crestfallen, went back to his room to change and go to work .

Xiao Hongli was sitting in the dining room and having breakfast . When he saw Xiao Jing coming down, he said to him, “Tell your brothers and sister to come down for breakfast and then go back to sleep . ”

Xiao Jing pretended not to hear him, and went down to eat breakfast . “They don't need to go to work . Why do they need breakfast? Why not save some food?”

Xiao Hongli sneered, “You can eat less to save food . ”

Yang Jingxian went upstairs to call the others down for breakfast .

Xiao Jing glared at his father as he cried out, “How can you be so partial! I'm going to work . I'm going to make money . Why can't I have breakfast?! Sh*t!”

“Rourou is going to school, Yao is making contributions to our country and Sa owns a company . They're all better than you!”

Xiao Jing immediately grew angry as if his sore spot was pricked and snatched the deep-fried dough stick from his father's bowl, saying, “I want to eat it . I'm going to gobble up all your money! What can you do to me?”

Xiao Hongli laughed out loud as he said, “You brat, how dare you talk to me like this? I'm your father! Aren't you afraid of your grandpa's crutch?”

“Leave me alone . ” Xiao Jing bit hard into the deep-fried dough stick, thinking that he had to try to keep Qiao Liang away from Rourou . He swore to make Qiao Liang regret doing this to him!

All of a sudden, the sounds of a house being renovated could be heard . Xiao Jing frowned, wondering, “Who's renovating their house? I remember the villas around ours have been sold out . Who's doing the renovation?”

Xiao Hongli took another glass of milk and a piece of bread before replying, “I don't know . Maybe the house next door was sold and the new owner is renovating it . ”

The brothers and sister came downstairs one after another . Xiao Jing asked with a frown, “Wasn't the house next door not for sale?”

“Maybe they're renovating it because they've come back from abroad . ” Xiao Hongli finished his bread, drank some milk, and went over to kiss Yang Jingxian who had just come downstairs . “Honey, I'm off to work . ”

The brothers and sister were all dumbfounded . Were they showing PDA in front of them?
