Chairman Xu’s expression turned cold as he looked at her. “Why are you asking me this? What does someone else’s accident have to do with me?”
“I don’t know if it’s related, but the police quickly closed the case. I went to the police station to investigate, but the police refused to hand over the case records. I found it quite strange.” s.h.i.+ Niange seemed to be chatting with someone else. “It’s because I couldn’t figure it out. After all, you know Chairman w.a.n.g. Back then, you were still a compet.i.tor. I wanted to know if you knew what kind of car his car was. Did anyone approach it? Was it tampered with?”
“CEO s.h.i.+, we’re talking about the marketing department and the subsidiary company. Can you not change the topic?” Chairman Xu’s daughter looked at her unhappily and sternly.
s.h.i.+ Niange’s gaze was still very indifferent as she slowly replied, “I’m talking about the same problem. Back then, the marketing department was managed by Chairman w.a.n.g. After Chairman w.a.n.g pa.s.sed away in a car accident, Chairman Xu seemed to have wanted to transfer the marketing department to your name. Still, because Wen Ke had already reached out to deal with the matters in the country, the matter was left unsettled. Now that you suddenly came to the company to question me, I have the opportunity to talk to you face to face about this matter. After all, so many years have pa.s.sed. I haven’t been in the country all these years. It’s time to properly discover the matters that have been acc.u.mulated for a long time.”
s.h.i.+ Niange was still sitting. She was young, and her dressing was not very mature. She was just a young lady, but the way she spoke and her demeanor was very similar to her mother, Yang Zhenzhen’s, in the company. No matter how she appeared in front of her family, she was definitely a strict CEO as long as she sat in the company.
“Chairman Xu, if you’re willing to continue the discussion…, why don’t we talk about the car accident my parents had in America. It’s the same as Chairman w.a.n.g’s car accident…, I wonder if you find it familiar, Chairman Xu?”
The air suddenly fell into a moment of silence. Of course, this moment of silence could only be noticed by those with keen senses.
Chairman Xu’s expression remained the same. He was even more unhappy. “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is… Chairman Xu, at your age, you should have reached the age of retirement long ago. You’ve sacrificed so much for the s.h.i.+da Group. The company should give you the dividends and annual salaries according to the board of directors’ rules. It should also give you a certain amount of pension to let you and your family continue to enjoy a good life. However, at your age, you clearly don’t have much ability to work. I really don’t think it’s necessary to place your family and subordinates in the company.” s.h.i.+ Niange looked at him indifferently. “Chairman Xu, you’ve worked hard for many years, so it’s time for you to rest well.”
“CEO s.h.i.+, aren’t your words too much? My father’s health isn’t good, so I usually take his place in meetings and important matters. I’ve been in the s.h.i.+da Group for many years. Even if I don’t have any contributions, I’ve worked hard. Do you mean to ask me to resign?”
Only then did s.h.i.+ Niange turn to look at her. She smiled lightly. “Sister Xu, you’re smart. You really understand just with a little bit of information.”
Chairman Xu’s daughter’s expression instantly turned green. “s.h.i.+ Niange, you’re just relying on the shares your mother left you when she pa.s.sed away and the fact that your father was the company’s chairman back then. Otherwise, how did a little girl like you, who didn’t know anything, become the CEO of s.h.i.+da? You dare to touch the senior members of the company’s board of directors? Do you really think you’re capable?”
As she spoke, she slapped s.h.i.+ Niange’s desk.
“What are you doing?! What are you doing? This is the CEO’s office! Why are you making such a big fuss?” Wen Ke appeared at the right time and said coldly at the door, “CEO s.h.i.+, Officer Zhang has arrived. The appointment you made with him is in five minutes. Do you want him to come to your office, or do you want to meet him in the VIP room?”
Hearing the words ‘Officer Zhang,’ Chairman Xu turned to look at Wen Ke who was standing by the door.
Wen Ke didn’t look at him, only at s.h.i.+ Niange.
“All right, I’ll go to the VIP room to see him.” s.h.i.+ Niange stood up and looked at the people in the office indifferently. She did not speak, picked up the phone on the table, and walked out. Her back was cold, and her aura was not like that of the naive little girl they were thinking of.
Chairman Xu and his daughter exchanged glances and frowned.
…
On the weekend, s.h.i.+ Niange was working at the company while Granny Xiang was was.h.i.+ng clothes. There was no need for Lele to go to kindergarten. After finis.h.i.+ng the homework the teacher had left for her, she sat on the sofa and ate fruits while watching cartoons.
Not long after, Granny Xiang came out to answer a call. After hanging up, she threw the phone on the coffee table in front of her and turned back to wash the clothes.
Granny Xiang said that it was best not to send children’s clothes to a laundry shop, nor to use a was.h.i.+ng machine. Usually, it was washed by hand. It was especially tiring.
Seeing that Granny Xiang’s forehead was covered in sweat, Kele thoughtfully ran to pick up the remote control to turn on the air conditioner. “Granny, I’m turning on the air conditioner!”
“Aiyo, it’s broad daylight. Why are you turning on the air-conditioner? It’s such a waste of electricity. I’m fine. It’s not hot.” Auntie Xiang was was.h.i.+ng Lele’s clothes in the bathroom as she chuckled. “Lele, be good. Watch some cartoons. When the sun isn’t so hot in the afternoon, I’ll bring you downstairs to play.”
“Okay!”
Lele returned to the sofa. After watching the cartoon for a while, she lowered her head to see that Granny Xiang’s phone was still on the coffee table. After watching for a while, she suddenly reached out to pick it up. Then she shouted in the direction of the bathroom, “Granny, can I play with your phone?”
“Sure. Don’t play for too long. Stay away from the screen when you play. Don’t hurt your eyes.”
Lele chuckled and ran back to the bedroom with the phone. She opened her bag and took out the note she had kept for many days and pressed it one by one.
After checking that the number was correct, she called him.
However, no one picked up.
It rang for a long time.
No one answered.
At first, Kele’s happy and expectant expression turned into a pout.
Was Uncle Handsome Doctor busy? Why didn’t he answer the phone?
Or could it be that the phone number left by the handsome doctor was fake? Was this phone not his?
She called twice more, but still no one picked up.
s.h.i.+ Kele put down the phone dejectedly and laid down on the bed. She picked up the doll and rolled around.
Unhappy! Ahhh…, Handsome Uncle isn’t answering his phone….
