In Shonan, February is the season of winter and spring.

At six o'clock in the morning, Li Ming was woken up by the alarm clock on time, dressed, washed and rushed downstairs to wait for the bus in the cold rental house, doing the work that all office workers have to repeat every day.

It's just that every morning when he sits in the car, Li Ming will ask himself in his heart: Is it worth it to continue to persevere, should he give up, or leave?

Whenever Li Ming thought of this question, the disgusting faces of some people in the unit would appear in his mind.

Thinking of his hard work in the past five years, but in exchange for their constant insults and trampling, Li Ming's heart was suddenly full of anger and unwillingness.

Every time he wanted to give up, Li Ming would tell himself: If you hold on a little longer, there will always be a chance for revenge, and if you leave, there will really be no chance at all.

Thinking of his disgraced departure and being ridiculed by his colleagues in the unit, Li Ming would inexplicably beat a spirit.

Li Ming works in a mining company, which is generally located near rural areas far from the city, and if he wants to go to work, Li Ming needs to take a bus from his home to the bus station every day, and then take an urban and rural bus to his work.

Today's car was a little late, and there was a traffic jam on the road, and Li Ming was half an hour late when he came to the unit.

Walking into the door, Li Ming found that everyone in the company looked at him a little strangely today, and when he met Wang Qiang and **, colleagues from other departments, Li Ming greeted the two, and obviously felt that the expressions of the two were a little strange.

Li Ming saw a hint of schadenfreude and pity in the expressions of the two.

Looking at Li Ming, who was walking away, Wang Qiang, who had just arrived at the unit last year, touched his shoulder with ** and said: "Brother Zhang, who did you say this Li Ming offended, I have been working in the unit for five years, and I usually look very hard, why don't you give a salary increase, but also reduce your salary?" ”

The name of the person who was called Brother Zhang by Wang Qiang is **, and he came to the unit a year earlier than Wang Qiang.

Hearing Wang Qiang's words, ** snorted coldly and said: "Who let him offend the office director Zeng Ruo, Zeng Ruo is a celebrity in front of the general manager, no matter how hard he works, Zeng Ruo told the general manager that you can't do it, even if you do it, you still can't do it." ”

Wang Qiang looked at ** in surprise, and said with a face full of disbelief: "No, Zeng Ruo usually seems to be very good to Li Ming, always praising Li Ming for his active and capable work, and saying that he will promote Li Ming when he has the opportunity, how can it be him." ”

** looked at Wang Qiang with the eyes of a fool, and said with a mocking face: "You also believe what you say in person, in this era, no one is smiling and saying hello to your face, but stabbing you in the back to kill you."

Zeng Ruo, as the director of the office, wants to promote Li Ming, an ordinary clerk, it is not a matter of one sentence, as for Li Ming is still a clerk after five years, boy, learn a little, in this society, not all people who say good things about you are good to you. ”

In Wang Qiang's unbelievable eyes, ** pulled Wang Qiang out of the office building to work.

Although Li Ming couldn't hear the conversation between the two, he knew that the two must be talking about themselves behind their backs, and what they said must not be a good thing.

Walking into his office, Li Ming saw Wang Heng, a staff member of the personnel department, sitting in his seat as soon as he opened the door.

Li Ming understood a little in his heart that what Wang Qiang and ** said behind his back just now must have something to do with Zeng Ruo, and every time Zeng Ruo found trouble with Li Ming in the past five years, Wang Heng went out first.

Seeing Li Ming coming, a playful smile appeared on Wang Heng's face, and he sat on the seat and watched Li Ming without speaking.

Because of Zeng Ruo's relationship, the rights of the personnel department are very large, and he is used to other people's compliments, Wang Heng waited for Li Ming to come forward and say hello first.

Li Ming knew that Wang Heng must have come to embarrass himself, and he didn't bother to rub the time, so he asked coldly, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Heng held a shelf, sat on a chair and looked at his watch, and said to Li Ming with a mocking face: "It's late again, isn't it, how can you say hello, you can be late for the last shift." ”

Listening to Wang Heng's words, Li Ming held back the fire in his heart, he came early by his mother, so many people in the unit came late, don't you say that they just talk about me, besides, who doesn't have a big affair, what's wrong with being half an hour late?

Too lazy to talk nonsense with Wang Heng, Li Ming asked directly: "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Heng also knew that Li Ming didn't want to see him, but Wang Heng just liked to see Li Ming's helpless expression with him, and said with slanted eyes: "Let's go, come with me, the director Zeng Ruo invited you to his office." ”

Li Ming knew that Wang Heng must have been instructed by Zeng Ruo when he came to find him, Li Ming didn't understand where he offended Zeng Ruo, and he had been looking for trouble for himself for five years.

Ignoring Wang Heng, Li Ming went upstairs directly and knocked on Zeng Ruo's door.

Seeing the thirty-year-old bald man sitting behind the desk with glasses, Li Ming said, "Director Zeng, I heard Wang Heng say that you are looking for me?" ”

Zeng Ruo raised his eyes and looked at Li Ming, sat in the seat without moving, stretched out his finger and pointed to the seat opposite the desk, and said expressionlessly: "Sit down." ”

Seeing Zeng Ruo's expression, Li Ming sneered in his heart, if he was a newcomer and was treated by Zeng Ruo with this expression, maybe his legs would tremble now, thinking about how much mistake he had to make, and he would be treated by the head of the personnel section with this expression.

But in fact, Zeng Ruo is a bastard who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard, he will only use this expression to bluff people, and use the limited power in his hands to bully the weak.

I heard very early on that the reason why Zeng Ruo came to Li Ming's unit was because he couldn't get along in the original unit.

Zeng Ruo bullied a newcomer in the original unit, but he didn't expect this newcomer to be the nephew of the general manager of the original unit, Zeng Ruo bullied the other party to the point that he almost fired the nephew of the general manager.

The nephew of the general manager couldn't stay anymore if he didn't look for his uncle, so he had no choice but to knock on the door of the general manager's office.

The general manager of the original unit exploded on the spot when he learned about it, and a phone call was made to the human resources department of the head office, naming Zeng Ruo to get out, and Zeng Ruo was expelled from the original unit on the same day.

After leaving the original unit in disgrace, Zeng Ruo really had no choice, so he spent a lot of money to buy off the general manager of the unit before he came here and sat in the position of office director.

It's just that I didn't expect that after Zeng Ruo came to this unit, his personality still didn't change, and he still took pleasure in bullying the weak, because he had already fought twice with other colleagues in the unit, and his face was swollen after being beaten, and it can only be said that this person was born with psychological defects.

Li Ming didn't bother to look at Zeng Ruo's expression, and sat on the chair and said to Zeng Ruo: "If you have anything to say to me, tell me directly." ”

Hearing that Li Ming went straight to the point, Zeng Ruo sneered and said, "Li Ming, I've been working in the safety department of our unit for five years. ”

Li Ming nodded.

Zeng Ruo deliberately pretended to sigh with emotion and said, "Oh, I've been working for five years, but Li Ming, I didn't say you, many people in your safety department reported to me that your work ability is not good." ”

Hearing Zeng Ruo's words, Li Ming's anger suddenly rose, how tired he was in the unit, everyone could see it, he always did the most, and he was also the most tired, not to mention overtime, and he didn't pay overtime.

Seeing that he has made some achievements, he has also become the oldest person in the safety department, and there are vacancies, and it is his turn, at this time, Zeng Ruo actually played this trick with himself.

Li Ming glared at Zeng Ruo and said directly: "Who said that, you let him come to me, and I will confront him." ”

Zeng Ruo knew that Li Ming was the reaction, a sneer appeared on his face, and said: "How can I tell you this, since so many people have complained about you, I can't let you continue to stay in the same place, but you are also an old employee, and I can't quit you, so I will change the department for you, you go to the production department, and study again." ”

Li Ming thought that the matter would end like this, but he didn't expect Zeng Ruo to continue: "Since you are transferred to the production port, the salary must be according to the standard of the production port, your original salary was 3,700 yuan, but now it has to be reduced to 2,700 yuan." ”

Li Ming looked at Zeng Ruo in disbelief, no matter what, Li Ming didn't expect that Zeng Ruo was so ruthless to himself, and he didn't give himself a chance to go up, so he actually lowered his salary, which was obviously forcing himself to go.

The salary was reduced by 1,000 yuan, and Li Ming took the same salary as a newcomer, removing the three insurances and the provident fund, and the salary in hand would not be more than 2,200 yuan, which even the driver of the unit drove more than Li Ming, Zeng Ruo made it clear that he was humiliating Li Ming.

Sitting on the chair, Li Ming's fists were already clenched, looking at Zeng Ruo's mocking smile, Li Ming couldn't wait to punch him in the face.

In the silent confrontation, Li Ming looked at Zeng Ruo with resentment on his face, and after a few minutes, Li Ming held back his anger and released his clenched fist.

Li Ming knew that he couldn't beat Zeng Ruo, and once he did, he would definitely be expelled.

If he is kicked out of the game after being played like this, Li Ming is unwilling, this revenge will not be avenged, Li Ming is unwilling!

In the past five years since he came to the unit, Li Ming has seen too many examples of flying and domineering when he is in power, but falling to pieces when he fails.

Looking at the disgusting face in front of him, Li Ming didn't believe that he could always gain the trust of the leader.

One day, Zeng Ruo's brilliance will no longer be targeted, and he will be targeted by other senior executives of the company, and one day, he will have the opportunity to retaliate against Zeng Ruo.

However, in the current situation, Li Ming knows that he must be patient.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Li Ming looked at Zeng Ruo's eyes full of hatred, but his face was very calm and said: "I obey the arrangement, and I will go to the production department to report." ”
