Chapter 408 Deliberate Humiliation
Chapter 408 Deliberate Humiliation
He Suye originally felt that some of these people had not yet done anything bad, and that those bad things were things they would do in the future, so she felt a little guilty about firing them all.
But judging from that person's tone now, that feeling of guilt vanished instantly.
There's always a reason why someone is pitiful. Someone who can still speak in this tone even on the verge of being fired will never learn to respect others, and keeping them around would be a huge problem.
He Suye's expression turned cold, and she said in a deep voice, "Do you think I'm stupid? If a large number of people resign voluntarily, people in the industry will inevitably think that something serious has happened to Iris. On the contrary, if I fire you, they will automatically think that you, like Kimi, have done something unforgivable. After all, Kimi's incident just happened, and people's memories aren't that bad."
Upon hearing this, the man truly realized that He Suye was not a girl who could be easily fooled or threatened.
His throat tightened instantly, and he glanced at Xie Qingyu fearfully, hoping that this troublemaker would speak up for him.
Sure enough, Xie Qingyu, the naive young man, couldn't help but speak up after seeing his pleading eyes: "Ms. He, we are colleagues and in the same industry after all. We'll see each other all the time in this circle. What he said may not be pleasant to hear, but it makes sense. If you really fire a large number of people like this, there will be a lot of gossip about you. Now that you've just launched the robotic arm, you'll need people in the future. With this incident, many people won't dare to come. So let's each take a step back, we'll leave on our own, and we won't mention Iris after we leave. What do you think?"
He Suye's expression softened a bit, and she silently tapped the table with her index finger.
The people behind Xie Qingyu were sweating profusely as they waited for He Suye to speak.
He Suye knew they were uneasy, so she deliberately remained silent for a while. Seeing how they didn't dare to breathe, she felt a little relieved and finally said, "Alright."
Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, He Suye said again, "However, since you resigned voluntarily, I won't pay your salaries this month. Moreover, you have to write a guarantee that you will not say a bad word about Iris in the future, otherwise... I will make this internal email public."
Everyone's expression changed: "He Suye, don't push your luck!"
He Suye looked up and said with a half-smile, "You're going too far? Fine, then I take back what I said. You can go collect your wages, but to the outside world, you'll be the ones who got fired by Iris."
The veins on their foreheads were throbbing, and someone said, "He Suye, are you threatening us!"
He Suye grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, and said, "You're only just realizing? I was threatening you."
"you--"
"What? Didn't I give you a choice? Whether you want to be fired or resign voluntarily is entirely up to you. Okay, you can start choosing now. Once you've decided, follow the order in the emails to complete your resignation procedures one by one."
The crowd's faces turned pale and then flushed.
Being threatened by a young girl they had previously looked down upon made them want to vomit blood!
Unfortunately, they had no choice but to obediently go through the resignation procedures as He Suye instructed.
Seeing their angry but speechless expressions, He Suye could only sneer inwardly.
However, she didn't have time to make things difficult for herself, so she called over the HR department and processed the resignations one by one in order.
Finally, He Suye finished reading the list in her hand. She looked up and saw Xie Qingyu still standing there, looking like she had been holding back for a long time. She asked impatiently, "Miss He, how long are you going to deliberately drag this out? Is it fun to settle personal scores like this?"
He Suye didn't quite understand at first, but when the phrase "using public office to settle personal scores" was mentioned, she was shocked to realize that he had misunderstood her all this time.
She said with a hint of amusement, "Xie Qingyu, are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Xie Qingyu didn't know that the "mistake" she was referring to meant being fired, and said angrily, "Where did I make a mistake? You would definitely fire me first, but everyone else has left and you haven't even called my name yet. You're just trying to embarrass me!"
He Suye didn't know who had instilled such ideas in Xie Qingyu, but she felt that he was really simple-minded, no wonder he was used as a pawn by Kimi.
She sighed and explained, "Go back and check if the internal emails have been sent to your computer."
Xie Qingyu was taken aback, then a possibility occurred to her, and she asked incredulously, "You...you don't intend to fire me?"
He Suye smiled and retorted, "When did I say I was going to fire you?"
"Back then you clearly..." Xie Qingyu stopped mid-sentence, realizing that He Suye had never said he was going to fire him, only that he was going to fire some other people, but he wasn't specifically referring to him.
Realizing this, Xie Qingyu frowned warily and asked, "Why? Kimi and I are so close, why did you fire those people but not me? Are you... planning to keep me here to deliberately humiliate me?"
"You're overthinking it. I'm keeping you here only because you haven't crossed my line. Okay, go back to work, I still have something to say to HR."
She immediately issued an eviction order.
Xie Qingyu was a little confused. He had thought that leaving Iris was a foregone conclusion, but now he was suddenly being told that he didn't have to leave.
Before he could even come to his senses and ask another question, he had already walked out of He Suye's laboratory.
When he came to his senses, he was already standing at the door of the laboratory.
He looked up and saw Vince staring at him expressionlessly.
Xie Qingyu turned to go back to He Suye's lab to ask her why she hadn't been fired.
However, just as he was about to turn back, Vince's voice rang out behind him: "Miss He doesn't have the time and energy to humiliate you. I also found it strange before, since you went so far as to go too far, why didn't Miss He take this opportunity to fire you as well, so I asked her."
Xie Qingyu paused, turned to Vince, and asked, "Why?"
Vince gave him a deep look and said, "Because Miss He thinks that although you are easily swayed, you are not a bad person at heart. She thinks it would be a pity to fire you and is willing to give you a chance."
Xie Qingyu was stunned.
He hadn't expected He Suye to think of him that way. He had repeatedly sided with Kimi in making sarcastic remarks to her, completely disregarding whether she, a young girl, would feel embarrassed or unable to bear being criticized in front of everyone.
But she felt that she was not a bad person and was willing to give herself a chance.
Vince could tell from Xie Qingyu's expression that he was starting to feel guilty. He seized the opportunity and chuckled, saying, "Miss He is such a kind person, yet you think she kept you here to deliberately humiliate you... I really don't know what you're thinking. You're not even as magnanimous as Miss He, a young girl."
These words made Xie Qingyu blush and feel ashamed to face anyone.
He's a grown man in his thirties, yet he's more narrow-minded than a young girl. It's utterly shameful...
