118: Future top boss

No one on the scene expected the Tattooed strong man to surrender so quickly.

His opponent hadn't even done anything yet, and this man had already confessed everything clearly; he was far too spineless.

The thugs had originally intended to hold out for a while, but seeing their boss confess everything, they all began to admit their mistakes.

"This has nothing to do with us; it was all Walter and Ronald's idea."

"We're just lackeys; please, spare us this time."

"I won't do it again."

...Many thugs were even repeatedly kowtowing on the ground.

Arnold waved his hand with a look of disgust, a hint of killing intent occasionally flashing in his eyes.

"Call Walter and Ronald and have them come here; this matter must be resolved!"

Ronald had made mistakes time and again; if he didn't take action, others would think Arnold was a pushover.

If that happened, work at the company would become impossible to carry out.

Now, there was no need to care about the opinions of the company's veterans.

Since Ronald was seeking death, he would grant him his wish!

Half an hour later, Ronald arrived at the scene with a gloomy expression.

Seeing Walter's men kneeling on the ground, he knew his actions had been exposed.

"May I ask, what... what do you want with me?"

Ronald asked Arnold, looking at him with trepidation.

He couldn't admit to this no matter what; only then might Arnold let the matter slide for the sake of being colleagues.

"What's the use of asking me? Look at what you've done! You've completely disgraced the company!"

"Don't look at me; Qin Yun has the final say in this matter!"

Seeing Ronald still playing dumb, Arnold's anger flared, and he shouted coldly.

Ronald saw Arnold turn his head away, no longer looking at him.

He knew that if he didn't comply, this newly appointed General Manager would certainly not let him off.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have been greedy and tried to seize things that don't belong to me."

Ronald apologized humbly.

Inwardly, he was very resentful; wasn't he just a Treasure Hunter? He only had a bit of fame thanks to the company. Apologizing to such a person was truly beneath him.

But when under someone else's roof, one has to bow their head.

What Ronald was thinking was to find an opportunity to settle the score.

"Since you've apologized sincerely, let's just leave it at that."

Qin Yun said calmly.

In his heart, he would never let off this guy who had caused him trouble time and again.

But the cause, process, and even the outcome of this matter were all orchestrated by Arnold.

He had obtained the caesars armor; at the very least, he had to consider things from Arnold's perspective. That was basic respect for a friend.

As the newly appointed General Manager, Arnold couldn't easily take drastic action against the company's executives.

Qin Yun didn't care about a piece of trash like Ronald, who used the company's influence to bully others.

In just a short while, he would become an existence far beyond Ronald's reach.

By then, Ronald would be more obedient than a pug; there was no need to insist on revenge now.

Hearing Qin Yun's words, Ronald's face lit up with joy.

Ronald walked up to Arnold and said, "See, Qin Yun has forgiven me. Let's just drop this matter."

"Several of these people are veteran employees of the company. Isn't it a bit much to make them kneel? For the sake of an outsider—we're all in the same company, there's no need to make things so tense."

Ronald smiled, pushing his luck by making this request to Arnold.

Arnold felt like killing someone.

How could the company have such an idiot in an executive position? Did he have a pig's head on his shoulders?

After making such a huge mistake, he still had the nerve to plead for his colleagues.

Arnold never imagined the company would have someone like this; he didn't know what to say.

The company employees kneeling on the ground looked up, their eyes darting between Arnold's and Ronald's faces.

Seeing Arnold remain silent, they assumed he had agreed and began to stand up.

"Right, right, right. We're all in the same company; there's no need to make things so tense."

"We will definitely follow your orders and act according to your wishes from now on. We won't do anything so stupid again."

"Qin Yun is just an outsider; he relies on our company for his livelihood. There's no need to be so polite to him."

"He got such a great benefit as the caesars armor, so he should be grateful to the company. He won't spread word of this."

"Qin Yun is just an ordinary Treasure Hunter. Without the Warehouse Auction, he's nothing. We can't let an outsider ruin our harmony."

"Exactly. Qin Yun is also from the backward Xia Country. If the company gets too close to someone like him, it'll be bad for our image."

"He's just a Xia Country Monkey. He should be scratching for food in the dirt, not appearing in a high-class place like a Warehouse Auction."

"If you ask me, no one would care if a Xia Country Monkey like him who came to America was killed."

...Seeing Arnold remain silent, the group assumed he agreed with them and spoke more and more outrageously.

When Qin Yun heard that these people weren't even grateful and even dared to insult him and Xia Country, he was furious!

He was enraged!

"Do you really think I'm a pushover? Since you're looking for death, don't blame me for being ruthless. I want all of you out of the company, or I'll send you to prison!"

Qin Yun snapped, ignoring Arnold's opinion.

Ronald knew things were going south, but with Arnold there, he couldn't say much.

Hearing Qin Yun's words, the company employees burst into exaggerated laughter.

"Oh? This little brother is quite tough, isn't he?"

"Who do you think you are? A monkey who makes money off our company. Are you tired of living, interfering in our company's business?"

"You have no say in the Auction House!"

"If Mr. Arnold weren't afraid of the bad publicity, we would have killed you long ago!"

"Just a monkey. Don't be so cocky. You're nothing in America; we have plenty of ways to deal with you!"

...Qin Yun snorted coldly, no longer paying attention to these suicidal fools, and turned to look at Arnold.

If Arnold didn't give him an explanation, he would take one himself!

Arnold's face was so dark it looked like it could drip water.

He had thought the employees were just coveting the caesars armor; he hadn't expected them to have such thoughts.

Keeping such people in the company would only lead to trouble; it was the perfect time to make an example of them.

"Qin Yun's words are my words. If he says you're out of the company, then you must leave!"

"Otherwise, I'll call the Legal Department and have you all thrown in prison!"

Arnold said murderously, looking at the group of idiots.

The foul-mouthed group was completely dumbfounded.

They hadn't expected Arnold, a refined gentleman, to say something like that.

Amidst their fear, they looked at Arnold with confusion.

"How can this be? We're in the same company. We've been colleagues for over a decade. Why treat us like this?"

"Qin Yun is just a lucky nobody. There are plenty of Treasure Hunters who have a moment of glory, and aren't they all obscure now? Why are we less than a guy like him?"

"Qin Yun is also a Xia Country person. If you fire us for an ordinary person everyone dislikes, people will have a bad opinion of the company."

...To their excuses, Arnold sneered, a look of contempt appearing on his face.

"A bunch of short-sighted wastes!"

"Qin Yun will soon become a Top Mogul in the Treasure Hunting World, while you will only ever be parasites relying on the company to bully others. Now, you can't even be parasites anymore; you're destined to achieve nothing in this life!"
