Chapter 366: Modern Extra - Lying
Chapter 366: Modern Extra - Lying
The smiles on the group of people froze on their faces.
"Yan - Butler? Are you kidding us?" One of them asked tentatively with a smile that was uglier than crying.
Yan Xun lowered his eyes to hide his emotions, but did not stop walking. He said calmly: "This month's salary will be paid to you today, and the compensation will also be paid in one lump sum."
"Why? We have taken care of the young master for several years. Why do you want us to leave?"
Yan Xun paused, took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, and said coldly: "If you have any objections to my decision, you can tell the young master. If he says a word for you, I will keep you."
The people behind him looked at each other. Yan Xun paused and chuckled, "Of course, you can also go find the old patriarch."
It only took a few minutes for the people present to go from smiling to blushing. They wanted to catch up with Yan Xun and argue with him, but Yan Xun had long legs, so they could only chase him from behind, but they could not catch up with him.
"Master, please wait a moment. Lunch will be ready soon." Yan Xun bent down slightly with an extremely respectful look on his face. With the butler's attire, he looked like a beast in human clothing.
Feng Jiuqing sat on the sofa with an open copy of "The Wealth of Nations" in his hand. He didn't even glance at Yan Xun, but he thought highly of Yan Xun in his heart.
This butler is a little smarter than the previous one. At least on the surface, he cannot be faulted at all and has never overstepped the mark. He seems to be a difficult guy.
However, no matter how well he disguises himself, his true colors will eventually be exposed.
Although this butler looks good, he is really annoying because he can't beat him and can't find any evidence against him. (At this time, Feng Jiuqing didn't know that one day he would be willing to take revenge on all the Feng family members at all costs for this butler he hates.)
The story began an hour ago. The group of people were frightened by Yan Xun's plan to fire them, but seeing that Yan Xun had not taken any other action, they took a chance and thought that Yan Xun was just talking.
But less than ten minutes later, a group of new bodyguards came to Fengyuan and told them to leave. Only then did they really panic.
"Butler Yan, I have an 80-year-old mother and a three-month-old baby. I can't be without a job! Please don't fire me!"
The man cried out at the top of his lungs, but was stopped by the bodyguard one meter away from Yan Xun.
Yan Xun smiled very gently, and his voice was also very gentle, but the words he spoke together seemed completely different from his expression.
"Really? It sounds pathetic, but does this have anything to do with me? Is your child mine? Or was I born to your mother? You have time to stay here, why not go back and find a new job? At least the compensation will be enough for a while, right?"
The man couldn't believe what he heard. How could there be such a gentle but cruel person in the world? How could he say such a thing?
But that person forgot that he was the one who said these words in the first place, and Yan Xun just slightly changed them and gave them back to him.
When Feng Jiuqing was treated harshly by the housekeeper, someone couldn't stand it and secretly helped Feng Jiuqing, but he saw it and threatened to tell the housekeeper.
At that time, the man who helped Feng Jiuqing had a sick son and was waiting for money, so he almost gave up all his dignity and begged him not to tell the housekeeper.
At that time, he arrogantly teased others and said cruelly: "What a pity, that's your son, not my son, what does it have to do with me? You broke the rules first, you can't blame me!"
The people he reported were unsurprisingly expelled from Feng Garden. The steward was originally sent from a side branch and received orders from his superiors to torture Feng Jiuqing. How could he allow the people who helped him to stay?
"Your child is healthy and mother is also fine, so be content!" Yan Xun said softly.
The man's eyes were red. If he was fired from Fengyuan, how could he find a better job than Fengyuan in the future?
How could he be fired? If he was fired, he wouldn’t be able to pay off his gambling debts. Wouldn’t that be the end of him?
The man fell to his knees and begged, "Butler Yan, I beg you, I really can't lose this job! Please be kind and leave us a way out!"
The smile on Yan Xun's lips faded a little. Not only did this man not help the young master back then, but he also reported others for helping him. If he had been willing to leave a chance for the person who helped the young master to live, how could this happen today?
If he wasn't addicted to gambling, the compensation Fengyuan would have given them would not be small, enough for him to find a suitable next job.
If he hadn't deliberately troubled his young master, he wouldn't have chased them away today.
Unfortunately, there is no if, cause and effect are cyclical, and everything has a beginning and an end.
They all cried and begged Yan Xun, but although Yan Xun looked smiling, no matter how much they talked, he did not show any intention of changing his mind.
They could only think of other ways. They couldn't get in touch with Old Master Feng, but the young master was right in front of them, so one by one they went to Feng Jiuqing to regret their past mistakes, begging Feng Jiuqing to forgive them and let them continue to stay in Feng Garden.
Feng Jiuqing had a sullen face and secretly cursed Yan Xun for being so restless and causing so many troubles for him on just the first day.
To be fair, he didn't like this group of people, but he already knew their details. If new people came, he would have to test them again, which would waste his time.
"Butler Yan——"
"Master!" Yan Xun interrupted Feng Jiuqing and sighed slightly. His master was still so kind. But he couldn't keep these people around him just because of his kindness. The 001 incident happened once, and that was enough.
"The old patriarch wants you to attend Patriarch Zhang's birthday party tomorrow. The dress is ready. Do you want to try it on now?"
"Young Master, please let us stay for the sake of our friendship over the years! We promise to treat you well and do everything well, and we will never let you worry about anything!" Those people spoke sincerely, as if they really knew that what they had done in the past was unfair to Feng Jiuqing, and they rushed to speak.
Before Feng Jiuqing could say anything, he heard Yan Xun's deep voice.
"It's too late—"
Seeing a flash of surprise in Feng Jiuqing's eyes, Yan Xun looked at his watch and said softly, "Master, if you don't go out now, you will be late for the meeting with Mr. Li."
When did he make an appointment with Mr. Li? Feng Jiuqing was rarely confused. If he remembered correctly, he didn't have any plans to go out today.
Yan Xun seemed to know what Feng Jiuqing was thinking, and explained again: "Mr. Li called me ten minutes ago to make an appointment. I saw that you didn't seem to be busy today, so I agreed."
