It's Time You Retired

Hearing the butler's response, Li Yu nodded and stated, "You're not young anymore. It's time you retired. Go to the finance department and collect your monthly salary."

The butler was taken aback. Was it because he had defended Bai Xue? Was that why he was losing his job, a position that brought in hundreds of thousands of yuan annually? There were so many perks—how could he accept getting fired over this?

"Young Master, I apologize," the butler implored with trepidation. "Please reconsider. Give me another chance."

"I simply believe that you're quite advanced in age and no longer suitable for the role of a butler," Li Yu replied nonchalantly. "I won't elaborate further, and I don't wish to hear any more from you. Is that clear?"

The butler's spirits plummeted instantly. He could only nod and depart reluctantly.

Not long after the butler left, his assistant entered the room carrying a stack of documents.
