Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Tang Xiaoxiao was furious and slapped her assistant.

“Are you rebelling?” Tang Xiaoxiao demanded. “Why are you shouting for help without my permission? Don’t come with me tomorrow. Go to the finance department and get your salary. Get lost.”

“Miss Tang, 1 was afraid you would be bullied, so 1 called security,” the assistant explained.

“Are you sure you’re helping me and not harming me?” Tang Xiaoxiao retorted angrily. “Alright, I don’t want to continue talking nonsense. You’d better know your place.”

The assistant immediately panicked. It was almost the end of the year, and the year-end bonus was about to be given out. If he was fired now, it would be a huge loss. She had worked so hard.

“Miss Tang, you can’t fire me. We have a labor contract,” said the assistant.

“Don’t worry. I’ll pay you back. 1 won’t give you a cent less,” Tang Xiaoxiao declared arrogantly.

The assistant questioned, “What about the year-end bonus?”

Tang Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened. “Stop dreaming. You almost ruined me. You still want a year-end bonus?”

“I’ve worked so hard to read your mind,” the assistant said frustratedly. “Why won’t you give it to me? If you don’t, I’ll sue you!”

“Are you threatening me?” Tang Xiaoxiao’s face darkened.

Although the assistant was angry, she had to bite back her words, otherwise, she might not even be able to find another job in the future if Tang Xiaoxiao did her dirty.

“Miss Tang, I’m not threatening you. Please don’t misunderstand,” the assistant said.

Tang Xiaoxiao raised her head arrogantly and said, “I’m not a bad person. I’ll give you everything 1 think you deserve. Now, please leave.”

The assistant was furious, but she didn’t dare to do anything because she knew that angering Tang Xiaoxiao would not end well. She had no choice but to leave.

After the assistant left, Tang Xiaoxiao turned to the director and said, “Director, I’m really sorry. I didn’t manage the staff well. I’ve already fired her. Can we just forget about this matter?”

The director knew that Tang Xiaoxiao didn’t want to apologize to Jiang Ling’er. “I’m not the one being surrounded by your security guards,” he said.

Tang Xiaoxiao was stunned that she didn’t get her way. She looked at Jiang Ling’er and said, “Little Jiang, I’m sorry about what happened just now. 1 didn’t expect a small assistant like her to be so arrogant.”

Jiang Ling’er raised her eyebrows. The director had pressured Tang Xiaoxiao to lower her head. Now, Jiang Ling’er had no choice but to give the director face.

“I’ll let it go for the sake of the director,” Jiang Ling’er said. “1 just hope that you can take care of your own people in the future so that they won’t ruin your future.”

“I’ll definitely take care of them,” Tang Xiaoxiao’s expression changed again.

Soon, it was past six in the evening.

Jiang Ling ‘er looked at Li Yu in the car and asked, “Are you bored?”

Li Yu leaned on Jiang Ling’er’s shoulder, and said happily, “Never. I rarely have a chance to spend so much time with you.”

“But 1 really hate those who fawn over you,” Li Yu continued after a pause.

“He was just pretending to be polite,” said Jiang Ling’er helplessly.

To be able to say such childish words, it was really not a bad feeling.

“No, I can clearly feel that these people harbor some sort of intention towards you,” said Li Yu seriously.

Li Yu’s sixth sense was never wrong.

“You’re really too sensitive,” Jiang Ling’er said as she raised her hand and tapped Li Yu’s forehead.

Li Yu shook his head and said seriously, “I’m not sensitive. I’m the one who noticed it. No, 1 have to continue protecting you. Otherwise, you’ll be easily taken advantage of. You don’t even know it.”

“As long as you have time,” said Jiang Ling’er with a smile.

It was impossible for anyone to take advantage of Jiang Ling’er. That kind of person had not been born yet!

Li Yu subconsciously looked out of the window and found that all the shops had been decorated with Christmas decorations. Some even had Christmas trees and Santa Claus decorations.

Having been abroad for more than ten years, Christmas was always very lively, but for Li Yu, it was no different from any other day.

Christmas songs were also popular in the country, but the atmosphere was far less lively than overseas. However, for some businesses, it was a good time to rack in some profits.

“Ling ‘er, how are you going to spend Christmas?” Li Yu asked.

“Probably at school,” Jiang Ling ‘er said. “There will be an event at school. Why? Do you have any plans?”

Li Yu thought for a moment and said, “I’ll pick you up from school, okay? Let’s spend the night together, okay?”

“Sure,” said Jiang Ling ‘er.

Although he wasn’t interested in Christmas, it felt good to satisfy Jiang Ling’er..
