New Year Bonus Update


Qin Mufeng knew some things more or less, but he had been holding back and not dealt with it.

Dealing with it without Qin Muye’s consent could easily lead to Qin Muye’s rebellion.

Moreover, he also wanted Qin Muye to learn to trust her family and take the initiative to speak up if she had any difficulties, instead of holding back and carrying them herself.

As a family, what couldn’t be said?

Of course, if Qin Muye really didn’t say anything, Qin Mufeng would still take action.

No matter how much he wanted his sister to change, he couldn’t let her be bullied.

“Silly girl, no matter what happens in the future, don’t let yourself be wronged. You must tell us. Otherwise, they will think that our family is easy to bully.” Dong Hanbi was still very angry, and her chest and mouth were heaving.

“Well, not anymore. Besides, I already know how to deal with them in the future.” Qin Muye sniffed and told her the method Tan Mo gave her.

Dong Hanbi’s eyes lit up: “This method is good.”

“Momo taught me this.” Qin Muye looked proud when she mentioned her new friend.

“Tan Mo?” Seeing her daughter nodding, Dong Hanbi asked, “Does she know about it too?”

Everyone knew about Tan Mo, but Qin Muye told her parents last.

Dong Hanbi was somewhat sad.

It was something they had done that made Qin Muye misunderstand. As a result, when something happened, the first person she told was not her parents.

“It was Momo who persuaded me to tell you.” Qin Muye said, “She said, if you know that you have neglected me because of your busy schedule and made me suffer, you will feel very uncomfortable. She also said that I should tell my family what I feel. It’s always time to talk.”

Dong Hanbi hugged Qin Muye, thought for a moment, and said, “She sounds like a nice little girl.”

Dong Hanbi could clearly see the operations of the Qin sisters.

Even if Qin Muye had 100 brains, she couldn’t compare to Tan Mo.

If Tan Mo was really good, she could protect Qin Muye.

But if it went wrong, Qin Muye would have to be fooled around by Tan Mo.

Dong Hanbi was a little worried.

After returning home, Dong Hanbi avoided Qin Muye and called Xiao Menghan and asked about Tan Mo: “I saw that she was sitting at your table at noon. You spent a lot of time with her. I want to hear your opinion.” Dong Hanbi wanted to know her daughter’s friend because she cared about her daughter.

Xiao Menghan understood very well.

What’s more, after what happened to the Qin sisters just now, where even her own niece would deceive her daughter.

So it was normal for Dong Hanbi to be worried about Tan Mo, whom she had just met for the first time that day.

“Zhiqian likes Tan Mo very much, and even had the idea of asking me to recognize her as my grandniece. He even asked us to give her a place to go to Jixia University.” Xiao Menghan said with a smile, “Even if you don’t believe in Tan Mo, you should still trust Zhiqian’s vision. Tan Mo is not a bad child. You can try to let Muye get along with her. If Tan Mo really has bad intentions, just let them separate when the time comes. What kind of tricks can a little girl pull out, can’t you still handle it?”

Dong Hanbi thought the same thing, thanked Xiao Menghan, and decided not to interfere, letting Qin Muye and Tan Mo get along naturally.

In the evening, Xu Mingzhen finished taking a shower and was sitting in front of the dressing table doing skin care before going to bed.

Tan Wenci had changed into his pyjamas, as he looked at Xu Mingzhen through the mirror, and said, “I want to transfer Yuan Zhengwen to a department that is less important, has no rights, and where he can only get a fixed salary.”

Xu Mingzhen massaged around her eyes while gently applying the eye cream to absorb it, and turned around: “Okay.”

“I know that you gave Yuan Zhengwen his current position just for my sake.” Xu Mingzhen took the initiative to bring it up, “I just wanted to pull him out. My sister is just to pitiful. Yuan Zhengwen’s own ability is average. But he has been unable to bring the company a corresponding return, instead he may even cause the company to suffer losses. You don’t have to worry about me. No matter what, our own family is more important. We’ve helped him enough. We can’t keep hurting our family just to help him.”

Because of Yuan Keqing’s incident, Xu Mingzhen also had some opinions on the Yuan family.

“His lack of ability is on one hand. The company has indeed lost a lot of revenue because of him. He relies on his relationship with us and his position is also profitable, and he does not take any less benefits in private, which can bring huge returns to the company. But there are very few. A professional person can earn more than 10 times more for the company.”

Tan Wenci said, “He is not a good person. Give him an ordinary position and he will think we look down on him and his ability. And even if he can’t perform well, if you give him an important position, he would come to suck the blood of the company.”

“Why didn’t you ever tell me this?” Xu Mingzhen felt extremely guilty, “I originally thought that although his ability was average, but it’s not too bad.”

“After all, he is your brother-in-law. You just have one sister, so we can help him if we can. I will just take care of him.” After Tan Wenci finished speaking, his face darkened, “It’s just today, I saw him at the door of Shengyue.”

“He went too?” Xu Mingzhen was not stupid either, and he thought it through immediately.

“Momo discovered it first. Yuan Zhengwen was hiding in the crowd not far away. He probably wanted to make sure that Yuan Keqing could enter Shengyue, so he didn’t leave in a hurry, but Momo happened to see him.” Tan Wenci said coldly, “Yuan Keqing is a little girl. She definitely can’t come to Shengyue by herself. Who must have sent her? At first, I thought it was the driver or aunt at home, but when I saw Yuan Zhengwen, what else could I not understand? I’m afraid it was agreed between father and daughter.”

Tan Wenci sneered: “I’m afraid Yuan Zhengwen is not satisfied with working under my hands, and wants to do something big. But they should never have stepped on Momo for climbing up the social ladder.”

Tan Wenci looked at Xu Mingzhen: “I don’t like Yuan Keqing, your sister’s daughter.”

“I think we shouldn’t transfer him to another position, just fire him.” Xu Mingzhen said with a frosty look on her face.

The father and daughter worked together to scheme, this meant that they didn’t treat them as family members at all.

The Tan family’s help to them over the years was like feeding the dogs.

She was afraid Yuan Zhengwen and his daughter were not grateful at all behind their backs, and may even complain a lot.

“We have helped them so much. They aren’t grateful when we provide them help, but we at least can’t help them get revenge. Aren’t we full enough to survive?” Xu Mingzhen was so angry that she even forgot about the next step of skin care.

“Okay, okay, don’t be angry. It’s not worth being angry for them.” Tan Wenci stretched out his index finger and thumb to support Xu Mingzhen’s eyes, “Otherwise, wrinkles will appear.”

“Go!” Xu Mingzhen said, most of her depression dissipating.

“However, if he is fired directly, what will happen to your sister?” Tan Wenci asked.

“Yuan Zhengwen has been in the company for so many years and has made a lot of money, which is enough for him to start his own business. Doesn’t he think he is quite capable? Then let him do it on his own.” Xu Mingzhen applied a thick layer of facial cream, and wiped off the remaining essential oil on her hands with a tissue.
