Ultimate white lotus!
Qin Yan directly asked, "Xiao Hui, do you know why I called you here?"
Xiao Hui carefully probed, "Boss, is it about the interview?"
Qin Yan nodded and said, "Yes. I just wanted to ask you, do you have anything to explain about this matter? Director Xu said that he gave you the resumes to confirm with the applicants before bringing them to the meeting room."
Xiao Hui's eyes immediately widened in disbelief.
She said, "Boss, that's not true! Director Xu gave me the resumes, but he told me to bring those five to the meeting room directly!"
Xu Tong: "…" So this is all my fault. This girl… No wonder Boss keeps on saying that I'm too soft-hearted and too kind-hearted!
Earlier, he was already ready to take on all the blame, but Xiao Hui had decided to throw Xu Tong under the bus the moment she opened her mouth.
Qin Yan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile that was not a smile, "So, Director Xu told you to bring those applicants to the office, and you did that without checking their identities first?"
Xiao Hui was a little frightened by this question. She looked at her finger and said uneasily, "I… I thought Director Xu had already checked the resumes, so I didn't repeat it." In fact, Xiao Hui only took a glance at the applicants and resumes. She didn't take it seriously. That was why she made such a mistake.
But obviously, she couldn't tell Qin Yan that.
Qin Yan asked, "So, that means you don't need to do your job?"
Xiao Hui lowered her head, her face red, and did not say anything.
Xu Tong, on the other hand, exploded.
"Xiao Hui, when I gave you the resumes of these people, I told you repeatedly to confirm them with the applicants," Xu Tong decided to spill the beans.
Xiao Hui opened her mouth as if she wanted to defend herself.
Xu Tong said directly, "Whether it's the office or the entrance of the company, there are cameras. We can check the footage and see what exactly happened. What do you think?"
When Xiao Hui heard that, she immediately raised her head and looked at Xu Tong in disbelief. She was confused. Xu Tong was very easygoing and he would never complain to the boss. It was why Xiao Hui decided to push the blame onto him.
But now…
Xiao Hui was really a little flustered. She could not help but call out, "Brother Xu, you…"
Xu Tong looked at the flustered Xiao Hui and sneered, "Are you shocked that I didn't take the fall for you this time?"
Xiao Hui's expression stiffened.
"Actually, that was indeed what I did. I shouldered all the blame for you," Xu Tong looked at Qin Yan and continued, "But boss is wise. She doesn't blame everything on me."
"But you're a rookie who has made a big mistake. Instead of admitting it, you want to push the blame onto your boss."
"Do you think I'm that easily bullied? Why would you think I'd bear all the blame for you?"
Xiao Hui's face turned pale as she shook her head. Her eyes were red as she looked at Xu Tong as if she had suffered a great deal of bullying and grievance.
Xu Tong: "…" Damn, what a white lotus! I was indeed too kind and soft-hearted before.
If Qin Yan didn't have a clear eye, she would think that Xu Tong was bullying Xiao Hui.
Xu Tong's heart was filled with anger as he said angrily, "Xiao Hui, why are you making such an expression? There is no one here. Otherwise, people will think that I'm bullying you."
Tears welled up in Xiao Hui's eyes. She shook her head and looked at Qin Yan, feeling wronged. "Boss, I… I didn't…"
Xu Tong: "…"
Qin Yan: "…"
This is an ultimate white lotus!
Xiao Hui was fired!
This was Qin Yan's decision!
If Xiao Hui had made a mistake because of her incompetence, as long as she admitted her mistake, she would not have been fired.
However, while Xiao Hui was young, she had a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Most of her tricks were evil. She liked to use others to climb to the top.
Normally, Qin Yan would turn a blind eye to these petty disputes. However, this time, it revealed Xiao Hui's real character.
And character was the first thing required for working in Starlight Entertainment now.
"I told you before, you are the CEO. You don't need to do every task by yourself. Assign different tasks to different departments. There is more important work for you to do," Qin Yan instructed Xu Tong.
Xu Tong nodded, "Yes boss!"
"Also find yourself an assistant!"
"Sure!"

After exiting the Starlight building, Qin Yan got a call from Xi Ting.
"Hello moonpie!"
"Hello cookie, where are you now?"
"I have just left the company. I am on XX street."
"Okay, I will come to pick you up."
"Why? What happened?"
"Nothing serious. It's just that today is Parents' Open day in Xiaobao's school. He would love it if you could attend. Are you free for the day?"
"Yes sure. I am always free for my darling. It's just that I need to change my outfit."
"Don't worry, I have a solution to that. I'll be on your location in 10 minutes."
"Okay, see you!"

It was 12 in the afternoon. The Parents' open day was to start at 1 in the afternoon after the classes got over. The little guy was already in the school as he had to attend his classes.
The little bun was five years old and should have been in the kindergarten's intermediate class. However, because Lil bun had learned too much and understood more than his peers, remaining in the intermediate class would have completely hindered his childhood development.
Therefore, After Lil bun entered primary school, he took an aptitude test. Although Xi Ting had not hired any tutors for Lil Xiaobao, his understanding of words and mathematics had already reached a certain level.
Based on his level of knowledge, the little guy should have been able to enter fourth grade. However, knowing that he was only five years old, the Xi family was afraid that he did not have a good enough foundation yet, so they only allowed him to join the second grade.
Today was an open day for parents. It was to let them observe their children's way of life in school and how they got along with their classmates.
Qin Yan was wearing a pair of Vini white pants today from an issue of Harper's Bazaar. and a white handmade pink floral undershirt with detailed lacing. She also wore a sweater that was the same color as the undershirt.
Her hair, which was usually tied up to get it out of the way, was now draped over her back. She had braided it into a beautiful hairstyle.1
She looked a few years older. She was not even 20 years old yet, but at this moment, she looked very womanly.
Xi Ting matched his wife's outfit. He was wearing a light gray shirt and a darker gray knitted coat. He looked elegant and handsome.
From the moment Xi Ting put on his clothes, Qin Yan was mesmerized by him.
She thought that Xi Ting's best outfit was his formal suit that he wore every day. It was impossible for him to look more handsome than when he was in that.
However, when she saw him standing beside her in casual clothes rather than a five piece suit, Qin Yan felt like her eyes were nearly blinded by the handsomeness of the man in front of her.
Xi Ting stopped the car and looked at this little woman's searchlight-like gaze. His eyes were smiling. He opened the door of the passenger seat, welcomed the little woman in, and asked with a smile, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Nothing," Qin Yan's ears turned red as she felt embarrassed.
Xi Ting was amused at her reaction.
When they reached the little guy's school, Qin Yan held Xi Ting's arm as if she was holding a piece of gold safe. She was keeping him warm. The two of them spoke in their private love language no one could understand, and just like that, they walked into Lil bun's school with a smile.
This was a premier school with a very good reputation. The school was not one that could be attended just because one's parents had money or power. Students joining the school needed to have their own skills, in addition to their families having a certain economic and social status.
They either had good grades or were talented in other areas.
Therefore, this school was relatively famous among the premier schools in the capital city.
At this moment, the parents were entering the school one after another. Qin Yan and Xi Ting entered the classroom through the back door.
