Translator:HenyeeEditor:Henyee
There was a faint smile on her lips. She looked as if she was smiling with kindness but her eyes were cold and instead full of satire. She looked at Xianger who was struck with speechlessness and the smile on her face suddenly disappeared. She asked coldly, Im asking you what about now!?
Xianger calmed down and looked at Tang Xi. She had been working in the Xiao Family for several years. She always thought that she was the favorite maid of Xiao Yan, and Xiao Yan would even chat with her sometimes. Even Xiao Jinning would bribe her and learn about Xiao Yans emotions from her before. So she quickly calmed down, looking at Tang Xi with doubt she asked with a low voice, Miss, did I offend you? Why do you pick on me like this?
Hearing this, Tang Xi gave a cold smile and looked at Xianger. You speak like Im purposely picking on you. Xianger secretly smiled and was about to speak when Tang Xi suddenly said, But so what? Are you gonna clean the floor or not?
Sure. Acting as if being greatly wronged, Xianger forced a smile at Tang Xi and said pitifully, Since you order me to do this, Ill do it.
Tang Xi sneered and raised her eyebrows. Very good. I want you to bear in mind that no matter how long youve stayed in this house, youre merely a maid I hire. Youd better not gossip about your master in secret. If you want to put on airs and gossip about me, earn the right to eat at the same table as me first!
Shocked to hear her words, Xianger looked at Tang Xi in astonishment and hurriedly explained, Miss, I didnt speak ill of you behind your back!
Haha Tang Xi folded her arms against her chest, looked at Xianger with a chill in her eyes and sneered. Werent you quarreling with Lily when I was in the room just now?
The other servants looked at each other with doubt. What was going on here? Miss was in the room at that time. How could she hear them?
Tang Xi looked around at the other servants and said coldly, Ill give you several hours to think about it. If you think you wont gossip any longer in this house, you can stay. Otherwise, I want to see your resignation letters, understand?
Miss
How can you
Miss, we arent hired by you. You cant fire us! Xianger looked at Tang Xi pitifully but thought disdainfully in her heart. How dare this country bumpkin play boss in front of them! She arrived here ahead of her. How could she fire them?!
Tang Xi gave a cold smile. Then you can have a try at testing what I have said. With that, Tang Xi looked at the mess on the floor. Think it over before I come back. By the way, youd better clean here before I return.
Then she knocked on the door of the study. Xiao Hongyi opened the door and smiled when he saw it was Tang Xi. Are you going out?
Tang Xi nodded. Yes. She was going to turn around when she suddenly thought of something. She glanced at the servants and pursed her lips. By the way, someone called me a country bumpkin. It seems that Im not welcomed here. In this case, you dont have to pretend to welcome me.
Xianger didnt expect Tang Xi would say this to Xiao Hongyi in their presence! She didnt care what they would think at all! How could she meddle in this familys internal affairs on the first day she came here? A fair lady would never do something like this!
However, Tang Xi didnt care at all. No one could bully her since she was little. Since some people turned up their noses at her, should she still bow to them? Sorry, she was not that kind-hearted!
Hearing her words, Xiao Hongyi immediately squinted. His eyes became cold and sharp. He took a deep glance at the servants and said coldly, You dont have to come here tomorrow. We dont need servants like you who will speak ill of master!
The servants were shocked. This was a very good job in City A. The payment was even better than the white collar workers and the workload was not heavy. They just needed to do some cleaning, tend the garden or send the clothes to dry cleaner If they lost this job, where could they find a job as good as this one?!
The servants began to beg for forgiveness and Lily was dumbfounded too. She lost her job just because she quarreled with Xianger?!
Tang Xi didnt expect Xiao Hongyi was so angry and fired all the servants. She raised her eyebrows and looked at Xiao Hongyi. I just dont want to hear anything that I dont want to hear. That girl called Lily can stay. I need her to clean up my room. As for the rest, its up to you, Dad.
Since she had told this to Xiao Hongyi, she wouldnt interfere with his decision
Xiao Hongyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi. After making sure she really meant it, he said coldly, Lily can stay. The rest of you, go get your payment from the butler. Youre fired.
Miss, we really didnt
You didnt? Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. I dont think so. I dont mean to put on airs and use my authority. I just dont want to be gossiped about. If you have any problem with me, you can just tell me, but you chose to speak ill of me and were even caught by me.
Miss, I wont do it again Xianger finally panicked. If Master insisted on firing her before Young Master came back, she would have to leave!
Tang Xi smiled and looked back at Xiao Hongyi. He said, Go about your business. You wont see her when you come back. No one can change the fact that youre the Miss of the Xiao Family. Ill see who dares to gossip about you!
Tang Xi smiled casually. I need a driver. Im going to the Qiaos International Group to find Jing.
Tang Xi suddenly felt it was great to have a brother working in the Qiaos International Group, which made a perfect excuse for her to go to the Qiaos International Group!
Xiao Hongyi took out his cellphone and called his driver. Lao Zhang will take you there and get you back. By the way, shall I buy daily necessities for you or do you want to buy them yourself?
