Supremely Talented Tyrant

Chapter 133 Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace!

"Oh, so you want me to pull some strings for you?" Xiao Qiang said with a mischievous smile:

"Tell me! Are you trying to hit on someone?"

Pull some strings?

Upon hearing these words from Xiao Qiang, Hao Jian suddenly had a wicked thought in his mind!

Dammit, I don't want you to pull strings for me, I want to pull your strings!

Of course, these despicable thoughts, he knew, were just that, thoughts. So he directly said: Continue your journey on empire

"No, she's an old classmate of mine. I figured since the shop needs a manager anyway, instead of assigning someone else, why not promote her directly?"

At this moment, upon hearing these words, Chen Zhiyan and the others were completely stunned. Chen Zhiyan stared blankly at Hao Jian and then couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

Hao Jian was Hao Jian. In his student days, he was a prominent figure at school, and now, even in society, he was a top figure.

A single word from him could make her a store manager. What more needs to be explained?

Chen Zhiyan had never regretted liking Hao Jian, even now it was the same, and she even felt proud to be able to like such an incredible man.

"Alright, I agree to it," Xiao Qiang briskly consented.

"Thanks, I'll treat you to dinner later," Hao Jian chuckled.

"Well, make sure to keep that promise. I've got to go, hanging up now," Xiao Qiang laughed and then hung up the phone.

Hao Jian hung up the phone, but didn't even glance at the plump woman, crossed his arms, appearing to be waiting for something.

And as he waited, both the staff and the customers in the shop also stood still, unblinkingly watching Hao Jian, all very curious about how the plot would unfold.

A few minutes later, the shop's landline rang. One of the employees glanced at it and hesitated for a moment before picking it up.

"Hello."

He first greeted and then looked at the plump woman with an uncomfortable expression.

The plump woman's heart skipped a beat, she swallowed, and asked uneasily:

"Wha... what's the matter?"

"It's a call from the headquarters; they said you've been fired," the employee timidly delivered the message.

"What?"

The plump woman was utterly shocked. Did the HR manager really fire her because of what Hao Jian said?

"It's the HR manager who called, she said you don't need to come to work tomorrow, and she said Chen Zhiyan will be the new manager. In a while, she will send someone to register her as the manager," the employee explained.

The plump woman was stunned, standing there like a statue. Had she just lost her job just like that?

"You actually got someone to fire me?"

After a moment, the plump woman recovered and glared at Hao Jian with eyes full of hate. She was gnashing her teeth, appearing almost manic, her face flushed with anger.

"I'm just telling you the price of looking down on others," Hao Jian said, the corner of his mouth curling in a disdainful arc. He had never had a good impression of such status-conscious people.

"I won't let this go, you, and you, I will definitely make you pay!"

The plump woman angrily pointed at Hao Jian and then at Chen Zhiyan, speaking with intense hatred.

She hated them immensely at this moment because, if not for them, she wouldn't have experienced such immense humiliation today, nor would she have lost her job.

"Fine, I await your 'big arrival,' but for now, can you leave?" Hao Jian asked with a cold laugh, looking at the plump woman.

"You. Hmph!"

The plump woman glared fiercely at Hao Jian, then stormed out of the jewelry store.

At this moment, everyone finally snapped out of their shock and looked at Hao Jian in amazement.

"You're still the same as before," Chen Zhiyan's mouth curved into a smile, as proud, powerful, and unrivaled as before!

"What was I like before?" Hao Jian asked curiously.

Chen Zhiyan thought for a moment, and smilingly answered: "Very handsome!"

"Well, I guess I can't ever fix the flaw of being handsome in this lifetime!" Hao Jian said, somewhat embarrassed as he touched his nose.

"By the way, there's a class reunion next week; will you be there?"

Chen Zhiyan suddenly remembered this because a high school classmate had recently suggested having a reunion. Since Hao Jian was also a classmate, Chen Zhiyan planned to invite him too.

"We'll see when the time comes, if I have time, I'll go."

Hao Jian said with a smile, but the concept of a classmate was quite vague to him.

Since he had joined the army after high school graduation and had left the army to constantly fight in the Underworld, he had become the supreme God of Death!

To him, the word 'classmate' had become too distant.

"Alright then, call me when it's time."

Chen Zhiyan knew that this was just Hao Jian's way, so she didn't insist.

"Hmm, we'll get in touch by phone then," Hao Jian agreed, then left the jewelry store.

"Zhiyan, that guy is your classmate? What does he do to be so wealthy?" Just then, one of Chen Zhiyan's female colleagues hurried over to ask.

"I don't know, but he has been quite impressive since our school days. I didn't expect him to be well-connected after moving forward," Chen Zhiyan answered with a laugh.

"That's because true gold always shines. Capable people will always find a way. Zhiyan, can I ask you something? Could you give me his phone number?"

Her colleague nudged Chen Zhiyan's elbow, a bit hopeful as she asked.

"You can forget it. Didn't you see he was buying wedding rings? He's getting married, you are too late," Chen Zhiyan laughed out loud.

"So what? If I can't be the wife, I can be a concubine, right? Being a mistress to such a wealthy and powerful man, many women would wish for that."

Chen Zhiyan realised her colleague wasn't joking and immediately dropped the smile:

"No way! You're talking about ruining someone's family!"

What a joke, how could she possibly let her succeed, even if it was about becoming a lover? If someone had to do it, it should be herself, right?

.

"Busy?" After leaving the jewelry store, Hao Jian went straight back to the company, then sneaked into Shu Ya's office.

Shu Ya looked up at him, then quickly lowered her head and asked:

"What's up?"

"There's something very important I need to discuss with you," Hao Jian said with a wry smile, wishing she would look at him.

"Yeah, go ahead." Shu Ya still did not look up, focusing intently on her work.

The funds from Xu Donghe had arrived, and she needed to use these funds wisely in the shortest possible time, so she was quite stressed.

"Can you look at me when you talk?"

Hao Jian was a bit speechless, had nobody ever told her that looking at someone while speaking is the basic courtesy?

"Speak up, I'm very busy." Shu Ya still remained nonchalant.

So Hao Jian got mad and said, "I got someone else pregnant, so I can't marry you!"

"Thud."

Shu Ya's pen dropped to the floor, and this time, she finally raised her head with a grimace of a smile:

"Say that again?"

Seeing Shu Ya's expression at that moment, Hao Jian really didn't have the courage to repeat it.

"It was a joke."

"I don't like that kind of joke."

"Don't be so uptight."

"I am that uptight."

"…"

"Get to the point, let it out, or get out." Shu Ya snapped impatiently.

"Are you sure?"

Hao Jian timidly glanced at Shu Ya.

"I'm very sure!" Shu Ya's anger was rising, wondering what on earth he was up to.

"Pfft…"

A strange noise suddenly reverberated through the office.
