Chapter 132: Unfathomable Depth
Zhuo Wenjun's appearance immediately silenced the entire noisy hall, and no one had expected that the goddess who had just left would suddenly return. Looking back, the goddess had left to avoid that arrogant little boy, so why did she suddenly come back?
Although everyone's intention in beating up this kid was to avenge the goddess, it's one thing to do it behind her back and another to let her see it. Moreover, with so many people ganging up on one person, they should be ashamed of themselves - wouldn't the goddess lose face? If an outsider were to come to Donghua and get beaten up by dozens of people, wouldn't Donghua's reputation in the industry be ruined if this got out? How could they still have the face to go out and meet with their peers?
Everyone was caught up in the commotion, trying to figure out how to deal with that kid, while the women around them were all gathered around watching the excitement, completely unaware of Zhuo Wenjun. Otherwise, they would have dispersed long ago.
Now, the goddess has arrived and seen all this, what a face! What a face for the goddess!
"Hey, Director Zhuo, I'm just playing with your company's employees," Wu Tian said to Zhuo Wenjun with a smile. Although he was surrounded by people, his mood was still pretty good. After that last fight, he felt much more comfortable, and the troubles Old Man Zhou had brought him had disappeared without a trace along with his swinging fists.
Wu Tian showed great magnanimity, but... play? One person fighting with dozens of people is called playing? Who would believe that? This isn't dying, if one dies, should it also be called playing to death?
Zhuo Wenjun's gaze swept across the crowd and said coldly, "What do you want to do? Rebel? Still not coming down to stand properly?"
In Donghua, Zhuo Wenjun's words were the highest command. So after she finished speaking, those people who had piled up together immediately let go of Wu Tian and came down from the human mountain one by one, bowing their heads and standing obediently to the side. However, apart from those standing, there were also some people lying on the ground, unable to get up. Because these people had been severely hit by Wu Tian earlier, some were in pain and couldn't stand up, while others had fainted and hadn't recovered yet. Counting them, around a dozen or so people lay surrounding Wu Tian.
Seeing this, Zhuo Wenjun's face turned even uglier. Fighting was wrong to begin with, and dozens of people ganging up on one person was even more unacceptable. What was most embarrassing was that so many people beating up one person had actually lost. This guy had lost so badly, it was as if he had lost all the way to the moon.
No one was holding him, Wu Tian regained his freedom, he moved his hands and feet, feeling great. Although they had been fighting for so long, none of the dozens of people managed to hit him. The crowd had dozens of people, but they were all just hugging him, not letting him move. It has to be said that Zhuo Wenjun's appearance was quite timely, when she appeared, these people had just pinned him down, only his head was exposed. If she came a little later, it's likely that he would have been beaten to a pulp!
"Haha, there are too many people, I couldn't hold back for a moment, I paid the medical expenses!" Wu Tian said to Zhuo Wenjun as he looked at the person on the ground.
"It's all right." Zhuo Wenjun said after hearing, then looked at the employee on the side and shouted, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and send them to the infirmary!"
"Yes!"
Those who had just come down from Wu Tian's body quickly carried away their colleagues who could not move on the ground. The cleaning worker held a mop and started wiping the floor.
Zhuo Wenjun's expression on her face slightly eased, she walked to Wu Tian's front, slightly bowed and said, "For the rudeness of our company employees, Wenjun apologizes to Mr. Wu here, hoping that Mr. Wu will not hold it against them. Please rest assured, Mr. Wu, Wenjun will definitely severely punish the offending employee and give you an explanation."
"It's okay, it's okay. We're all just people in the same boat, just exchanging blows, very normal. You shouldn't blame them either." Wu Tian said with a smile, and actually apologized to those who had hit him.
"Mr. Wu is a broad-minded person with a wide heart, and I admire him," said Zhuo Wenjun. "However, without rules, there would be no square circle. Rules are rules, discipline is discipline, whoever violates them will receive the corresponding punishment."
"This is Miss Zhuo's company, Wu Tian as an outsider, it's not good to say anything." Wu Tian said after hearing this. From Zhuo Wenjun's words, Wu Tian could tell that Zhuo Wenjun was very angry at the moment. It wasn't because these people beat him up and he was angry, but because they broke the rules, so they had to be punished. Donghua is a company with strict discipline, anyone who breaks the rules, Zhuo Wenjun will never go easy on them. Once an exception is made, there will be a second, third or more, and it will be difficult to manage afterwards.
"Secretary Liu!" Zhuo Wenjun called out.
"Miss!" Liu Jiajia walked up to Zhuo Wenjun's side, her face respectful but her head held high and chest out, not thinking that what she had just done was wrong. If time could be turned back and everything could start all over again, she still wouldn't change her mind.
"Write a detailed report for me about what just happened, and also write an inspection report."
"Yes, miss!" Liu Jiajia replied, but she didn't show any guilt. It was clear that she submitted to the young lady, but not to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian smiled as he watched all of this, thinking that Zhuo Wenjun's actions were more like a performance than a punishment. Zhuo Wenjun was putting on an act for him, showing him her attitude.
"That's said and done. Now that the fight is over, Zhuo Wenjun turned to Wu Tian and said, 'I didn't expect Mr. Wu to be both literary and martially skilled, able to fight so well. I truly admire you.'"
Wu Tian heard a hint of dissatisfaction and ridicule in Zhuo Wenjun's tone, but he pretended not to notice and smiled, saying, "Hehe, it's just so-so. Maybe your investigation isn't thorough enough, or maybe you should investigate further. If you start investigating from elementary school, you should know that my talent for fighting is better than my talent for scientific research."
“……!”
Zhuo Wenjun was speechless, she had never seen anyone with such a thick skin, and couldn't tell whether he was being praised or scolded! However, it was indeed as Wu Tian said, her investigation of him only went back to the past few years at work and his family situation, and didn't extend to his school days. So, she really had no idea that Wu Tian was such a good fighter.
"I originally planned to take Mr. Wu on a tour, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this. Don't worry, Mr. Wu, Wen Jun will definitely handle it well and give you a satisfactory answer. Another day, Wen Jun will personally come to your doorstep to apologize." said Zhuo Wenjun.
Wu Tian figured it out, Zhuo Wenjun was giving him the cold shoulder. Thinking about it, he had already achieved his purpose for coming here today, so Wu Tian smiled and said, "In that case, I'll take my leave first. I'll be waiting for Miss Zhuo's arrival at Tian Zheng at any time. Until next time!"
"Goodbye!"
As Wu Tian left, the smile on Zhuo Wenjun's face disappeared. She turned around and glanced at Liu Jiajia with a faint look, saying "Come to my office." As she spoke, she walked towards the elevator. Liu Jiajia didn't say anything but followed closely behind Zhuo Wenjun.
Zhuo Wenjun's general manager office is also located on the top floor of Donghua Building, facing Wu Tian's Tianzheng Building across the air, face to face, window to window.
Her office, like her, is filled with the atmosphere of Chinese classics. Plants and flowers, screens and paintings, a delicate carved red wood table in front of the window, not an office desk, but a guqin table, because on it lies a beautiful ancient zither, with a rich, mellow flavor.
Zhuo Wenjun sat down and looked Liu Jiajia up and down before suddenly asking, "You're involved in this too?"
"Yes, miss!" Liu Jiajia said.
"As a high-level executive in the company, it's already bad enough that you didn't stop him, but you actually participated in it? Don't you know who he is?"
"Sorry, miss. But that man was too detestable. Look at what he said to you? Not giving him a bit of color wouldn't be enough to calm the public anger." Liu Jiajia said indignantly, just thinking about that detestable man made her furious.
"I wasn't even angry, what are you guys getting worked up about?" Zhuo Wenjun said calmly, recalling the scene she saw earlier in the hall, and asked again, "Was it you who took action to subdue him?"
Upon hearing Zhuo Wenjun's words, Liu Jiajia looked embarrassed, her face red, and she lowered her head to answer, "No."
"Did you lose?"
"En!" Liu Jiajia nodded in embarrassment and then recounted what had happened after Zhuo Wenjun left.
Zhuo Wenjun was stunned for a while after hearing the story. She knew Liu Jiajia's skills all too well. She had always thought that Wu Tian would fight with ordinary employees first, knock down over a dozen people, and then Liu Jiajia would intervene and subdue Wu Tian. The others would then step forward to pin Wu Tian down as punishment. But now, the situation was completely opposite of what she had imagined - Liu Jiajia wasn't even a match for that man! What...what could be done? Zhuo Wenjun had been thinking of a plan since returning to her office, aside from resting and taking medicine. She had to get that experimental record back. But now it was in Wu Tian's hands, making things very difficult. She had even considered doing something to Wu Tian, but now it seemed unlikely.
"How is his kung fu?" asked Zhuo Wenjun.
Liu Jiajia thought for a moment and carefully recalled the previous fragments of her fight with Wu Tian in the hall, finally saying seriously, "Deeply unfathomable!"
“……!”
Zhuo Wenjun closed his eyes and heard these four words. Zhuo Wenjun smiled bitterly in his heart, now even the worst plan couldn't be realized.
Liu Jiajia had been with Zhuo Wenjun for many years, and as soon as she saw the expression on Zhuo Wenjun's face, she immediately understood what was in her mind.
"Miss, about the experiment record thing, are we going to continue investigating? Should we bring the person back?"
Zhuo Wenjun did not answer immediately, this was also what she had been thinking about. As it was a matter of great importance, she could not make a rash decision and had to think carefully. Because of this matter, the development and future of Donghua were at stake.
Her originally calm face began to show expressions, sometimes puzzled, sometimes painful, sometimes disappointed, and sometimes twisted. Her expression kept changing, making it impossible for people to guess what she was thinking. It felt like someone who had been cultivating a powerful martial art suddenly went crazy.
Zhuo Wenjun sat for a long time, gradually calming down, and his facial expression suddenly became resolute.
"Keep investigating!" Zhuo Wenjun opened her eyes and looked at Liu Jiajia, "Send someone to try to contact the members of Wu Tian's R&D team, investigate thoroughly, understand?"
"Yes!" (It is!)
