125: Chapter 125 The Realm Has Already Changed
Bai Jingqing shook his head.
He said, "Since his qualifications meet the requirements in all aspects,
then it doesn't matter.
If you want to keep him, then keep him."
He then turned the key, started the car,
and stepped on the gas.
The wheels kicked up the snow on the ground,
and Bai Jingqing drove away.
The security captain stood in the snow,
watching the black Audi A6 recede into the distance,
falling into deep thought.
"What does this mean?
Does Little Boss Bai want me to keep him?
Or does he want me to fire him?
I really can't figure it out.
The thoughts of these big shots
are truly hard to guess!
However, Little Boss Bai didn't say that guy was lying,
so he probably really was Little Boss Bai's former neighbor.
In that case,
I'll just keep him for now."
Muttering to himself,
the security captain slowly trudged through the snow back to the security booth at the factory gate.
"Little Pang, you really lacked situational awareness today,
getting caught red-handed by the boss!
Even though it's New Year's,
and Little Boss Bai said we didn't have to be too strict on duty today,
you still have to act very serious in front of the boss!
We should do what we're supposed to do.
You deserve to be fined today.
Just take it as a lesson learned."
The security captain said to the man in front of him.
This security guard was none other than Pang Xietang.
At this moment, he bowed and scraped repeatedly, thanking the security captain.
He even handed him a cigarette
and helped him light it: "Captain,
I really owe you for this!
Thank you for pleading for mercy for me!
I'll treat you to a meal later!
I didn't expect Little Boss Bai to come out at this time either.
I thought they would be drinking for a while longer."
The security captain nodded while smoking,
lectured Pang Xietang a few more times,
and seeing that the kid's attitude was still very good,
he didn't say anything more.
He walked into the security booth, leaned back in his chair, and started playing on his phone.
As for this kid Pang Xietang,
he actually appreciated him a little.
Even though he said he was neighbors with Little Boss Bai before
and the two of them should have a decent relationship,
he didn't have any of that arrogant air at all.
He wasn't bossy or overbearing
just because he was close with Little Boss Bai.
Pang Xietang was still very humble,
had good judgment, and knew how to handle things.
He would flatter and fawn over him from time to time.
Precisely because of this,
the security captain's impression of this kid was quite good,
so he decided to keep Pang Xietang in the Huayao security team for the time being.
Pang Xietang was still standing guard outside,
but now he didn't dare to play on his phone,
fearing that Little Boss Bai might suddenly return.
If he were caught playing on his phone during work hours by Little Boss Bai again,
no amount of pleading from the security captain would likely help.
Light snow was still falling.
He was wearing a security uniform.
Although the clothes were quite thick
with a padded jacket underneath,
he felt a sense of desolation from the bottom of his heart for no reason.
This New Year's was truly a mess!
When had he ever suffered such grievances before!
After this New Year's,
he truly felt that things had changed so much.
In just a few months,
such earth-shattering changes had already occurred.
He remembered back then when the Bai family kid was just a poor boy with nowhere to go.
He had even dared to mock him to his face
and dared to work for Little Boss Bai's rival.
But now, the difference in status between the two was like clouds and mud.
They were simply no longer on the same level.
Bai Jingqing couldn't even be bothered to say more than a few words to him.
Even just now, when the security captain chased after Bai Jingqing to see him off,
his heart was still filled with apprehension.
He thought Bai Jingqing might use the previous events as an excuse
to fire him.
If he really did that,
Pang Xietang would have nothing to say.
After all, thinking back on what he had done before,
even he himself felt it was excessive.
But he really didn't want to leave Huayao.
Although he had only been here for less than a month,
he felt he had already integrated into this place.
Moreover, the salary and treatment here were truly high,
the benefits were also very good,
and the usual work was quite leisurely.
In short, being a security guard at Huayao was a very good job.
It even gave him a feeling of regret for not having come sooner.
If he had come here to be a security guard earlier,
he would have skipped 30 years of detours.
It wasn't until the security captain returned
and didn't tell him about being fired
that he breathed a long sigh of relief,
and the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.
At this moment,
he was genuinely grateful to Bai Jingqing for being willing to take him in when he had nowhere else to go,
giving him a way to make a living.
Speaking of which,
the security guards' salary was indeed not low,
and more importantly, the benefits were great!
The security captain had just told him
that they could get ten times the salary on holidays in the future!
As security guards, they didn't rest on holidays all year round.
In that case, his salary income would be a lot more.
So he really didn't want to leave this place.
As for Pang Xietang,
Bai Jingqing didn't have any particular thoughts in his heart.
The former Pang Xietang was indeed a bit disgusting,
often coming up to mock him
and helping Xue Haixin do things,
completely having the face of Xue Haixin's lackey.
But that was all the capability he had.
Because the two mobile phone shops were across from each other
and were natural competitors,
it was quite normal for Pang Xietang to do something to annoy him before.
Aside from that,
he hadn't done anything truly heinous.
Compared to Xue Haixin,
Pang Xietang was not some wicked person.
Now that he had come to his own company to be a security guard,
Bai Jingqing couldn't even be bothered to pay him any attention.
The position he was in now was different.
His Huayao Communications was now a pillar industry in Shi City.
He himself could establish connections with three ministers,
and Douyin, which he invested in, would also explode in popularity next.
What about Pang Xietang?
He was just a miserable man who had chosen the wrong side
and was now at a dead end.
He couldn't be bothered to hold those previous matters against him,
after all, their realms were already different.
However, he still needed to be a bit wary.
Maybe this kid would learn Huayao's secrets
after being a security guard at Huayao for a few days,
and then his wicked heart wouldn't die,
reporting to Xue Haixin to mess with him again.
He had to prevent him from becoming a spy for Ideal,
so in the days to come, he should have the security captain reprimand Pang Xietang from time to time.
But on this point, he was indeed overthinking things.
Pang Xietang was now completely devoted to Huayao.
With such a leisurely job as a security guard,
such a high monthly salary to take,
and such good company benefits,
he was now willing to be a loyal dog for Huayao.
And as for Xue Haixin,
let alone him going to hook up with Xue Haixin again,
no matter what Xue Haixin said now,
he wouldn't believe a single word.
Since the last time Xue Haixin left,
there wasn't a day that Pang Xietang hadn't been cursing Xue Haixin's mother.
