Chapter 661: The Complexion is Not Good
Shen Dong’s face indeed darkened instantly as he spoke, "I must have misjudged you. I gave you so much money; was it so you could come here and take bribes from others? You say it’s according to the choreography that the positions were arranged, then tell me, is the woman in the very center truly that good? When did you watch her, or are you just basing her position off of past performances?
If this is how you handle diligence, then you’re simply washing away others’ efforts. I want you to figure out a way to have the woman at the very edge stand in the center—that’s the person I’m promoting, not someone for you to toy with, got it? Go and make the arrangements. If you can’t even handle this, then you should consider leaving this place.
For now, I’m docking several months of your salary. Let’s see if you accept this arrangement."
Shen Dong was ruthless indeed, not sparing any feelings as he laid out his words. Mr. Lin’s face turned pale after hearing this, not expecting such a small issue to result in the loss of his salary, especially since the money he had taken was less than his salary. Now that his wages were being docked, what should he do?
His face turned to panic, but then he became even more anxious when he heard Shen Dong threatening to fire him, to not let him continue working in this position—that was a rare and good opportunity. What he valued the most was this job; without it, how would he feed his family? He blamed himself for being blinded by greed at the beginning.
Why did he agree to that woman’s plan? Indeed, it was his mistake, and he deserved to be punished by his superiors. He immediately calmed down and thought about a solution. Since the performance had already started, changing positions was impossible—it was his fault, and he had to bear the consequences.
"I’m sorry, boss. This is indeed my fault. I will make sure to sort this out. During the second round of seating changes, I’ll discuss it with the superiors. There’s a five-minute break then, though it will be in the second half. Will that be okay? I promise I won’t make such a mistake again, boss.
You’re right to dock my two months’ salary. I will use this incident to strictly remind myself never to make such foolish mistakes again and I hope, boss, that you won’t impose any heavier penalties.
I have elderly parents and young children to care for; I really can’t bear this kind of pressure. I accept the consequences for this incident." As Mr. Lin spoke these words, he did so with reluctance, but it was the best solution he could come up with and might stop Shen Dong from further pursuing his mistake, so he thought it best.
Shen Dong knew the situation with the management too and didn’t pursue it further. If he kept pursuing the issue, he wouldn’t have anyone to work at his bar. Sometimes if the other party doesn’t realize what they’ve done, let it be; just warn them for now and deal with the rest later. He nodded slightly.
He told him to hurry down and resolve the issue so that they could move past it, and Mr. Lin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to make the necessary arrangements.
