Chapter 184 Mom, you should quit your job [Please subscribe]
How much time and effort did it take her to rise from an ordinary accountant to become a CFO?
Now, they've dismissed me under a fabricated pretext and made me work as an assistant.
These things alone wouldn't have been enough to make Tong Wenjie burst into tears; there were actually things that were even more painful.
"And that Xiao Jin actually became the CFO, and I became her assistant!"
Fang Yuan, standing to the side, looked puzzled and asked her, "It's your assistant!"
Tong Wenjie nodded, then said with tears streaming down her face:
"Yes, she's been working for me for several years. I treat her like a sister. I never imagined she would be this kind of person!"
Fang Yuan and Fang Yifan exchanged a glance; the current situation was indeed quite perplexing.
Fang Yifan smiled and said to Tong Wenjie, "Mom, don't be sad. This company can't fulfill your ambitions or realize your talents, so you might as well quit!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan's eyes widened. "All you asked me to do was offer some comfort, and you're telling me to resign? Good heavens!"
Tong Wenjie's face suddenly changed, and then she became angry.
He stood up abruptly and began to lecture Fang Yifan:
"Do you think I don't want to quit? It's all for you. I work so hard every day, only to be bullied by someone younger than me. What's the point?"
"If I stop working, what will you eat and drink? Are you going to live in the park tomorrow?"
Fang Yifan's lips twitched. Was this change really that fast?
Just a moment ago she was complaining about Xiao Jin, but now she's suddenly turned on her and started lecturing herself.
However, Fang Yifan had already anticipated this scene, so he smiled.
"Mom, it's okay if you don't eat and go to work, didn't you win the lottery?"
Tong Wenjie wiped away her tears with one hand, her face turning serious:
"Stop grinning. No, you can't touch that bonus. It's for when you need it later, understand?"
Fang Yifan coughed and then said to his mother, "But this money won't increase in value no matter where it's kept. Why not take it out and spend it? What if there's inflation?"
He needed to persuade Fang Yuan himself, but now that he could persuade Tong Wenjie, everything would be fine.
After all, she now rules the household, and even if she manages to persuade Fang Yuan, she doubts he'll be able to come up with the money.
Why not take this opportunity to start a company or studio?
Tong Wenjie glared at Fang Yifan, then said angrily, "Where did you get all this nonsense? I said no, and that's final!"
It seems she can't accept this explanation; she still needs strong medicine to treat her serious condition!
"Mom, I need to tell you something. You have to hang in there!"
Tong Wenjie turned to look at Fang Yuan, who shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
She looked at Fang Yifan and then asked, "Did you get into a fight with that classmate again?"
Fang Yifan shook his head, then said helplessly:
"Do I really enjoy fighting that much?"
Tong Wenjie looked at Fang Yifan and said disdainfully, "The day before school started, I was called in by your homeroom teacher because you got into a fight. Have you forgotten?"
Fang Yifan's lips twitched. How could he still remember?
"Back then I was young and impetuous, now I'm all grown up, hehe!"
Seeing Fang Yifan's expression, Tong Wenjie figured it probably wasn't a good thing, so she voiced another guess.
"Are you dating that female classmate?"
Fang Yifan let out a breath, then said helplessly:
"Who would I date? Mom, your imagination is too vivid."
Fang Yuan and Tong Wenjie looked at each other, both seeing fear in each other's eyes.
So Tong Wenjie suddenly grabbed Fang Yifan's hand and asked:
"Fanfan, have you done anything illegal or disorderly? Tell your parents and turn yourself in!"
Fang Yifan coughed, then frowned and said:
"Mom, can't you just stop looking at me? Maybe it's something to do with Dad?"
Upon hearing this, Tong Wenjie turned around and looked at Fang Yuan with a cold smile.
"Tell me, what exactly did you do behind my back?"
Fang Yuan glared at Fang Yifan, who was looking relaxed and carefree.
He felt really wronged; he hadn't done anything, yet he was being blamed.
He spread his hands, and then i7 said helplessly:
"I really didn't do anything!"
Suddenly, Tong Wenjie's eyes changed, and then she looked at Fang Yuan calmly and said:
"Fang Yuan, you always hang out with Qiao Weidong, you haven't done anything to betray me and Fanfan, have you?"
In an instant, countless images flashed through Tong Wenjie's mind, and she came to the conclusion that Fang Yuan had cheated on her.
After hearing Ah Hu's name, Fang Yuan couldn't sit still any longer and said anxiously:
"I didn't, don't talk nonsense."
"Old Joe and I just have meals together all the time. How could I have done anything to wrong you?"
……
However, women are emotional creatures, and once they've made up their minds, they don't consider logic at all.
She wouldn't listen to Fang Yuan's explanation.
Fang Yifan's heart skipped a beat; things seemed to be going in an unexpected direction.
If I hadn't spoken up, a world war might have broken out in my house today.
Fang Yifan coughed and then said to his mother: (Good morning/afternoon/evening)
"Mom, you've misunderstood, that's not how it is!"
Only after hearing Fang Yifan's words did Dong calm down slightly.
Fang Yuan also remembered the culprit. What a terrible son he was! He wanted to give him a good beating.
Why is it that it's specifically designed to rip off your dad?
"Fang Yifan, stop keeping me in suspense and hurry up and tell me, or you'll get a beating."
Tong Wenjie turned around, glared at Fang Yuan, and said angrily, "Don't threaten the witness here, or we'll go to the room."
Sure enough, Tong Wenjie's words were more effective, and Fang Yuan immediately shut his mouth.
However, a murderous aura still emanated from his eyes. If eyes could kill, Fang Yifan would probably have died dozens of times over.
Fang Yifan took a breath and then announced some news.
This was like a bolt from the blue for Tong Wenjie!

"My dad lost his job!"
These words were like a thunderclap, striking both of them and leaving Tong Wenjie and Fang Yuan stunned.
Tong Wenjie was shocked by the news and worried about the future.
Fang Yuan was surprised that Fang Yifan knew about this, since his resignation wasn't a big deal and shouldn't have caused such a stir.
Tong Wenjie glared at Fang Yifan, then lectured him:
"Don't talk nonsense. If your dad loses his job, the first thing he'll do is cut off your allowance."
Fang Yifan's face fell. Was there no justice in this world? He had only told the truth, and yet he was treated like this.
It was obvious that Tong Wenjie didn't want to believe Fang Yifan's words; otherwise, it would have been a double whammy.
Fang Yuan sat to the side, neither denying Fang Yifan's words, then sighed, "Sigh, how did you know?"
Suddenly, Tong Wenjie turned around and looked at Fang Yuan, saying incredulously:
"You lost your job?"
Fang Yifan nodded, then said helplessly, "Yes."
But in Tong Wenjie's somewhat dazed eyes, there was a persistent determination, like someone determined to get to the bottom of things.
"Didn't you just tell me yesterday that you handled a big case and your boss was going to promote you and give you a raise? How could he fire you? You've been gone for so long."
Thinking about this, Fang Yuan wanted to smash that boss to death.
I was there when the company was first started, and as the company grew bigger, it acquired a new company.
The fact that they're willing to step down to make room for someone else is mainly due to a midlife crisis.
When you need a stable, well-paying job the most, you lay yourself off.
"Because the boss thinks I'm too old, and my abilities and enthusiasm aren't as high as those of younger people, but I get paid more. Why not choose younger people?"
Tong Wenjie suddenly leaned back on the sofa, no longer so fragile, and then pressed her eyes with her fingers.
Fang Yuan was demoted and dismissed.
Fang Yuan is really carefree. Instead of worrying about work, he asked curiously:
"Fang Yifan, I just want to know how you knew I was fired."
Fang Yifan coughed. It was time to spout nonsense... ptooey, it was time to reveal the answer.
He looked serious and then said:
"When I got home at noon today, you were at home. Under normal circumstances, you wouldn't be at home."
"Even though you told me it was because you were on a business trip, that's why you were given the leave!"
