Chapter 60: Choose one of two

~7 min read 1,397 words

His face, having heard all the words of the employees, was as gloomy as if he could kill.

He coughed heavily, and the intense anger made him unable to care about maintaining his persona, directly shouting at the crowd: "I let you come here to rehearse; whoever chats again, just get out!"

The employees closed their mouths one after another upon hearing Xu Rixin's scolding.

After Xu Rixin saw Yun Shuo, he suppressed the jealousy in his heart and squeezed out a smile: "Yun Shuo, you haven't come to the company for the past two days, and I contacted you but didn't get a reply. Did you encounter something? Do you know how worried I was about you?"

He had an open and aboveboard appearance, without any guilt for having done something wrong.

His feelings for Yun Shuo were more resentment than gratitude.

Although Yun Shuo had always taken care of him in the capacity of a brother, he always felt that he couldn't breathe under the noble feeling that Yun Shuo was born with, as if the good Yun Shuo did to him was high-and-mighty charity.

Yun Shuo was a popular figure wherever he went in college, able to call the wind and rain at will, while he was like a little follower beside Yun Shuo, completely inconspicuous.

Although he had real power after graduating from college and taking charge of the family company, while Yun Shuo was idle all day taking dividends, and his reputation was also at its peak, that inferiority formed from the bones still made Xu Rixin want to trample Yun Shuo under his feet in all aspects.

So he gave Yun Shuo ideas, letting Yun Shuo show a mature and steady side in front of shareholders and An Xingyue, and at the same time told Yun Shuo that women all like safe and reliable boyfriends, telling him not to interfere too much in An Xingyue's life and give her enough private space.

He did succeed. Seeing An Xingyue, Yun Shuo's fiancée, chasing after him every day to fuss over him, Xu Rixin felt an indescribable triumph.

Originally, he thought this triumph would last for a long time, but he didn't expect that a word from Xu Tian inadvertently exposed the relationship between him and An Xingyue...

Yun Shuo saw Xu Rixin's pretentious posture and wished he could vomit out the meal he ate at noon.

"Don't bother Xu Zong. Xu Zong is busy with ten thousand things; you'd better care more about the things you should care about."

Xu Rixin didn't expect Yun Shuo to not give him any face at all, and his expression suddenly stiffened.

On the side, An Xingyue also recovered from the amazement of Yun Shuo's outfit.

Then, she looked at Yun Shuo with more triumph in addition to dislike.

Why else would Yun Shuo suddenly change his outfit?

It was just to attract her and make her change her mind.

But soon, she frowned slowly, looked at Yun Shuo and opened her mouth:

"Yun Shuo, stop being unreasonable! It was I who didn't like you and wanted to break up with you; it has nothing to do with Rixin. You vent all your anger on him; are you still a man?!"

If Yun Shuo had come over to say a few nice words to her, she might have really given him a chance.

But Yun Shuo didn't give Xu Rixin face like this, and what was the difference between that and slapping her in the face in public?

"Vent anger?"

Yun Shuo sneered upon hearing this: "I came here today to participate in the annual meeting rehearsal; I really don't have that much time to waste on irrelevant people."

"You are participating in the annual meeting rehearsal?"

A look of astonishment flashed in An Xingyue's eyes.

How did she not know that Yun Shuo was also going to participate in the annual meeting rehearsal?

However, before she could continue to be surprised, the administrative manager walked in front of everyone with a program list and smiled apologetically at everyone:

"Please be quiet, everyone. Today is the last rehearsal for the company's annual meeting. We need to make a final screening of the official programs."

"Because the performance time of the annual meeting is limited, and we have invited a few big-name stars to assist in the performance, their time and appearance order cannot be changed, so the programs we have already set need to be adjusted and changed slightly."

As she spoke, she looked at An Xingyue, who was standing beside Xu Rixin, and Rong Yan, who was sitting quietly in the corner with an outstanding temperament, and said somewhat embarrassedly: "Miss An and Manager Rong, what are your views on this?"

Originally, the program and duration didn't conflict, but An Xingyue and Yun Shuo suddenly wanted to add programs, so the programs that were originally scheduled had to be adjusted and changed.

Plus, they had to take care of the schedules of the invited stars and internet celebrities, so one program had to be removed.

But most of the programs in this annual meeting were performed by multiple people, and those employees had sacrificed their time to rehearse for months. Suddenly saying they would be removed would definitely cause dissatisfaction among the employees, so the administrative manager decided to remove the solo programs.

Currently, the solo programs were only An Xingyue's modern dance, Yun Shuo's solo singing, and HR manager Rong Yan's solo dance.

Although from the status of these three people, the one that should be cut the most was Rong Yan's dance, but because Rong Yan's dance effect was very good and it was a program that had been prepared since the annual meeting preparation started.

If this solo dance were removed, it would not only affect the effect but also be unfair to Rong Yan, who had been working hard to rehearse.

The administrative manager thought about it repeatedly and made a decision...

"There are two solo dances in the current annual meeting programs. Because the forms are too similar, and the performance time is limited, one has to be cut painfully."

As she spoke, the administrative manager looked at An Xingyue, who was standing beside Xu Rixin, and Rong Yan, who was sitting quietly in the corner with an outstanding temperament, and said somewhat embarrassedly: "Miss An and Manager Rong, what are your views on this?"

"Are you kidding?"

An Xingyue glared at the administrative manager dissatisfiedly: "I have performed in grand theaters that can accommodate tens of thousands of people before. Agreeing to perform a program at your small-scale annual meeting is already giving Xu Zong face. Now you say you want to remove it if you want to?"

The administrative manager smiled bitterly helplessly: "Miss An, your program is indeed very wonderful, but because the annual meeting programs were arranged in advance, you suddenly proposed to perform a program, and it was a ten-minute solo dance, which is indeed a bit..."

Normally, the time for a solo dance is about five or six minutes, but because of the relationship between An Xingyue and Xu Rixin, there were some words the administrative manager couldn't say directly.

"Since the programs you two are performing are both solo dances, why don't you each perform one first and let everyone vote to decide which program should be left."

"What?"

An Xingyue's mentality exploded directly: "It's already an honor for you that I can perform for you. Now it's your turn to decide whether I should perform or not? Who gave you the face?"

"Enough! Say less!" Xu Rixin finally couldn't help it.

He looked directly at An Xingyue and opened his mouth: "I think this proposal of Xiao Tian is good. Since your two programs are too similar, why don't you compare them and choose the best one to show the true style of our Xu Group."

"Rixin, do you also think I should compete with her?"

An Xingyue widened her eyes in shock, and tears of grievance welled up in her eyes.

Xu Rixin didn't give her face in front of the employees, letting her compete with a first-line employee. What was the difference between that and slapping her in the face in front of everyone?

"If you don't want to compete, then just give up your spot." ===== CHAPTER 61 =====
