Chapter 3103

The Calligraphy and Painting Association was very efficient. After the meeting, the news that Executive Vice President Xiao Changkun's resignation was approved was put on their official website, and the WeChat official account also released this notice simultaneously.

The wording of the notice was very simple, without mentioning Xiao Changkun's actions, only mentioning that Executive Vice President Xiao Changkun resigned from the association due to personal reasons, and the association decided to agree to Xiao Changkun's resignation request after a general meeting of all members.

Although everything was very simple, just these few words completely drove Xiao Changkun out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.

Those who are relatively close to the calligraphy and painting circle are other literary and artistic associations in the city, the antique and cultural circle, and the University for the Elderly.

The official account of the Calligraphy and Painting Association has a total of more than 1,000 fans, many of whom are from the University for the Elderly.

Almost every student, lecturer, and visiting professor at the University for the Elderly followed the official account of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. The reason was that when Xiao Changkun was teaching at the University for the Elderly, he always took out the QR code to let everyone follow it. Everyone couldn't save face, so they followed it naturally.

Now it's good, as soon as the news about Xiao Changkun's resignation came out, the University for the Elderly knew it for the first time.

Han Meiqing recently asked for leave and was actively preparing for the wedding details with He Yuanjiang. At this time, Han Meiqing had just finished trying on her wedding dress and changed back into her own clothes. Her mobile phone suddenly received such a push, which made her drop her jaw.

She understands Xiao Changkun. Xiao Changkun has always attached great importance to the position of executive vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. It is unlikely that he would resign on his own. But the statement issued by the Calligraphy and Painting Association said that it was Xiao Changkun's personal voluntary resignation, which made Han Meiqing somewhat suspicious.

She said to He Yuanjiang: "The Calligraphy and Painting Association issued a statement saying that Changkun resigned."

"Resigned?" He Yuanjiang said in surprise: "Could it be because of the matter that went viral on the antique street two days ago?"

Han Meiqing said noncommittally: "Maybe, I can't say well, but that matter doesn't seem to have continued to ferment, and he doesn't seem to have any need to resign."

He Yuanjiang said: "Then maybe it's just that he can't save face."

Han Meiqing said: "This is not his style, I'll ask him."

When she was with He Yuanjiang, Han Meiqing told him about the past between her and Xiao Changkun, and she didn't hide the fact that she still had feelings for Xiao Changkun before. However, Han Meiqing also clearly stated that when she agreed to be with He Yuanjiang, she no longer had that kind of feeling for Xiao Changkun. He Yuanjiang had lived in the West for many years, so he wouldn't be overly open, but at least he could not dwell on the past, and he trusted her very much, so he had no jealousy towards Xiao Changkun.

So, he nodded and said: "It's good to ask, maybe there is some hidden secret in this. If Old Xiao is in a bad mood, let's see if we can help him with anything."

Han Meiqing gave a hum and sent a message to Xiao Changkun on WeChat: "Changkun, why did you suddenly resign from the Calligraphy and Painting Association?"

The WeChat message was sent for a long time without a reply. Han Meiqing didn't know what Xiao Changkun was busy with, but it was not good to ask more, so she didn't ask again, just waiting for him to reply.

After Xiao Changkun curled up in economy class for eight and a half hours, the plane finally landed at Dubai Airport.

This continuous round trip made Xiao Changkun feel tortured. He hadn't really understood Dubai or played in Dubai, but he already felt disgusted with Dubai, just thinking that after this time, he would never come to Dubai again in his life.

Throughout the flight, Xiao Changkun couldn't control his wild thoughts.

He no longer hoped to get back the lost money. His only expectation was that President Pei could successfully keep a vice president position for him.

Fortunately, President Pei had already promised him that at the very least, he would have a director position, so although he was always thinking wildly, he was the only one who didn't think that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.

As soon as the plane landed, he couldn't wait to turn off the flight mode of his mobile phone, waiting for the network to ask President Pei about the progress and specific situation of the meeting today.

After connecting to the network, WeChat received a lot of messages in one breath, including pushes from official accounts and inquiries from many acquaintances.

Many people knew that he had resigned from the Calligraphy and Painting Association and sent him messages to ask about the specific situation, which naturally included Han Meiqing.

When Xiao Changkun saw Han Meiqing's avatar among a crowd of unread messages, his spirit suddenly lifted.

Although the matter a few days ago made him no longer have fantasies about Han Meiqing, seeing someone send him a WeChat message made him feel excited and excited uncontrollably.

Moreover, Ma Lan was not by his side, which gave him a sense of stimulation similar to an affair.

So he hurriedly clicked on Han Meiqing's message first, and found that Han Meiqing asked him why he resigned. He didn't think much, thinking that Han Meiqing knew that he had sent an email to resign voluntarily, so he replied casually: "It's not really a resignation, it's just sending a resignation email. You can understand it as just being polite. By the way, Meiqing, how come your news is so well-informed? You even know about our internal email exchanges in the Calligraphy and Painting Association."

Han Meiqing replied: "It's not your internal email, it's that your association's official account has already issued a statement. Don't you know?"

Seeing this message, Xiao Changkun was a bit confused, then came back to his senses, and hurriedly went to find the Calligraphy and Painting Association in the official account messages.

After flipping through dozens of junk pushes, he saw the one issued by the Calligraphy and Painting Association at a glance. The title was: Explanation on the Appointment and Removal of the Executive Vice President of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.

Xiao Changkun thought: "Looking at this meaning, it should be that I was stripped from the position of executive vice president, but it doesn't matter, anyway, I didn't expect to be able to keep it."

As he spoke, he clicked on this push.

The moment the text opened, Xiao Changkun stared at his mobile phone, his eyes widened like copper bells, wishing they would pop out of his eye sockets!

He cursed with gnashing teeth, "That Pei guy is playing me!"

The sudden angry curse made the surrounding passengers look over one after another.

Xiao Changkun had no energy to care about other people's eyes at this time, so he called President Pei directly.

President Pei had already returned home at this time, guarding the mobile phone with his wife on the sofa in the living room, waiting for Xiao Changkun to call to ask for trouble.

President Pei knew very well in his heart that he had to give Xiao Changkun an explanation for this matter. If he avoided seeing him and didn't answer, it would be equivalent to confirming the fact that he had set him up.

In order not to cause unnecessary trouble for himself, he still decided to explain it clearly to Xiao Changkun.

Of course, his so-called explanation was nothing more than the logic of borrowing a knife to kill someone pointed out by his wife.

So, he connected to Xiao Changkun's call and said very ashamed: "Oh, Changkun, I'm sorry for you, brother!"

Xiao Changkun asked angrily: "Pei! Are you playing me? You said let me send a resignation email to go through the process, and as a result, you just opened me directly based on that email of mine, right? You told me so much, but actually you set a trap for me, right? You are too much of a grandson. I treated you so well and treated you as a close big brother. I am really blind!"

President Pei said quickly: "Oh, Changkun, listen to me. This matter is not as simple as you think. I really wanted to protect you, and I called those vice presidents to my office early this morning to discuss this matter. But they insisted that what you did had a too bad influence on the association's reputation, and said that the people below also had great opinions on you, forcing me to hold a general vote in the association. As a result, when voting, except for me, everyone else voted to let you go. Everyone stared at the result waiting for me to express my stance, and I had no way..."

As he spoke, he added: "By the way, look back at the email, the personnel supervisor should have sent all the meeting minutes to you."

President Pei threw the pot to everyone, but Xiao Changkun didn't appreciate it. He cursed angrily: "Pei, you don't have to talk to me about these useless things. I only know that you promised me yesterday that you would at least keep a director position for me, but now? Now let alone a director position, you didn't even greet me and just opened me directly!"

After speaking, Xiao Changkun roared with a trembling voice and even a crying tone: "Pei, you don't know how much effort I put into joining the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Ever since I was still in the antique street, I have been determined to join the Calligraphy and Painting Association! After I joined the association, I treated you, the president, well, right? You wanted to see the world in Tianxiang Mansion several times, and I took you to the diamond private room. I also introduced Master Hong Wu to you. Because he has a very good relationship with me, he is also very polite to you. You treat me like this now, how will you face him in the future?"

President Pei's expression was greasy, thinking: "It's all this time, you are still taking Master Hong Wu out to pretend to be forced with me. If Master Hong Wu expressed even a little bit of intention to protect you on the phone, I would definitely do my best."

However, President Pei didn't dare to throw the pot to Master Hong Wu, so he could only say coldly: "Changkun, I have already made it very clear to you just now. This matter is not my decision, but the decision of everyone in the Calligraphy and Painting Association except me! They all want you to go, what can I do? Why don't you ask yourself why your popularity in the association is so bad? If you had good popularity in the association, how could everyone push you down? You have to understand, except for me, not a single one wants you to stay. Listen clearly! Not! A! Single! One!"

Xiao Changkun didn't care about this, he said with gnashing teeth: "You don't have to talk to me about these useless things. I only know that you promised me to keep a vice president position for me, at least a director, but you didn't do it! You didn't do it, that's breaking your promise!"

President Pei said coldly: "If you think so, I have no way. Whatever you want. You can scold me or hate me, I have nothing to say, but I only remind you of one point, Xiao Changkun, the reason why you ended up like this today is all your own fault! If you didn't do that dirty thing, not only would you not be expelled from the association, but you would have a great probability of succeeding me as president. So I advise you to reflect properly during your time in Dubai and find problems from yourself instead of blaming all the faults on others!"

After speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Changkun to speak and continued: "By the way, when you come back, contact Xiao Wu for the first time. He usually walks closer to you, so just let him handle the resignation procedures for you. If you have any personal items, let him help you pack them up. It's better for you not to come again, otherwise everyone doesn't know what kind of eyes to look at you with. As for our friendship, I can only do this for you. Whether you appreciate it or hate me in your heart, I can say that I have done it with a clear conscience, so that's it. Take care of yourself in the future, goodbye."

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Xiao Changkun beat his chest and stamped his feet. He never expected that he thought this matter was finally going to pass, but he ended up with a big move for himself at the end!

Now, he was kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association. Wouldn't he become an unemployed vagrant again in the future?
