Qu Qingdai, who was sitting far away, heard the two of them talking in low voices and smiled faintly in her heart. It was actually an obvious fact to know who was more shrewd.

In the spacious conference room, the group's elites were solemnly reporting to Su Jingmo on the various operations of the past week. Although everyone seemed a little nervous, they had indeed made great progress compared to a week ago.

Today's meeting has lasted for nearly an hour and a half. After all the senior cadres finished reporting on their respective work, the entire conference room was unusually quiet. Apart from the sound of Su Jingmo's hand tapping rhythmically on the table, one could almost hear each other's breathing clearly.

Everyone waited quietly for Su Jingmo's verdict. Time seemed to freeze, ticking away. Cold sweat streamed down the foreheads of the senior executives, who wondered if their performance wasn't good enough, causing the president to be so angry that they didn't even want to talk.

"Beep...beep..." A sudden ringing of a cell phone broke the eerie silence. Everyone looked in the direction of the ringing.

Zhang Na, the secretary sitting next to Su Jingmo, had an uneasy look on her face. She glanced nervously in his direction. Su Jingmo's brow furrowed slightly, and she knew he must be displeased. In the conference room, everyone who entered would consciously turn off their phones to prevent a sudden call during the meeting. The president hated being interrupted by anything.

Zhang Na stood up gently, trembling with fear, and quickly walked out of the meeting room. She was filled with regret, blaming herself for forgetting to turn off her phone while preparing materials for the meeting, which had caused the CEO's displeasure. At this moment, she only hoped that the other party had something extremely important to tell her. A flash of coldness flashed in her eyes. She knew that the only people who knew her phone number were people within the company. Everyone in the company knew that the top management was in a meeting right now, and yet they were so reckless as to call her. It was clear that they wanted to embarrass her.

Zhang Na quickly walked out the door and finally let out a long breath. She hung up the phone with an unhappy look on her face and said unhappily, "Hello, what's going on?"

"Secretary Zhang, there's a woman downstairs who wants to see the president." The receptionist on the other end of the phone heard Zhang Na's unhappy voice, and suddenly remembered that Secretary Zhang should be in a meeting at this time. But things had come to this point, and the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. She just called the secretary's office, but no one answered. She thought the secretary went to the bathroom, so she directly dialed Zhang Na's mobile number. Now it seems that she has offended Secretary Zhang.

"Woman?! The president is in a meeting, and I have already told you not to let any unimportant people in, especially women! Do you have no ears? Or do you think this job is too easy?" When Zhang Na heard that another woman wanted to harass the president, she suddenly felt angry.

Zhang Na was furious and hung up the phone in a rage. She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and turned to the bathroom. She didn't want the CEO to see her face so distorted and miserable. She had to fix her appearance and make herself look more presentable and dignified. As she walked, she mentally warned herself that she must not let this poor state affect her image in front of the CEO.
