There is an irreconcilable conflict between the former boss and the current boss, but Secretary An has no choice but to grit her teeth and mediate.
He couldn't afford to offend Chen Rou even more. As strong as she was, as long as she didn't leave on her own, she would be the mother of the next person in charge. If Secretary An really wanted to be a veteran of three reigns, the first person he had to flatter was this boss lady.
So, when offering advice to the landlady, he said, "If you, Third Madam, find the conditions unacceptable and don't want to go, that's fine too. Just let the boss know, and I'll bring the bodyguards and accompany the old man. It'll be the same."
Chen Rou said, "Thank you for thinking of me. It's still early, let's discuss it later."
Before she even entered the ward, Nie Rong's personal secretary, A-Kuan, approached her with a smile: "Third Madam, the Master is waiting for you."
In fact, Nie Zhao treated the old man very well. Although he had retired, his group of bodyguards, such as Ahui and Akuan, were all highly skilled. However, unless there was an urgent need for manpower, Nie Zhao would not mobilize them, but instead had them accompany Nie Rong.
Nie Rong was reading the newspaper on the sofa when he saw Chen Rou enter. He put down the newspaper, turned around, and said, "A-Rou is here?"
He then said to Secretary An, "Go and make tea for your boss's wife."
Ah Kuan has already prepared a cup of hot water and a cup of cola; it's just a matter of which Chen Rou wants to drink.
This is actually not good. Generally speaking, soldiers or special police officers need to hide their hobbies to prevent being poisoned. But in wealthy families, where people are pampered by a group of people, it is difficult for a person to hide their hobbies and habits.
Nie Rong was sitting on a single sofa, so Chen Rou sat down on the small round table next to him: "I heard that you want to go to the mainland, Dad?"
Nie Rong, who was wearing glasses, took them off and handed the newspaper over.
When Chen Rou saw the name "South China Sea Military Daily" and then noticed the "PLA Daily" on the table, she roughly understood what was going on. Sure enough, Nie Rong pointed to an article analyzing the situation in the South China Sea in the lower right corner of the first page of the "South China Sea Military Daily" and said with a smile, "See the author's name? Glory, hehe, what a good name!"
In fact, those articles were all analytical articles written by Nie Yao for the ICPO headquarters, but the South China Sea authorities probably thought they were well-written and published them in the newspaper. As for the pseudonym 'Glory', it was probably given to him by the military's document department, because Nie Yao was an unofficial staff member and was not qualified to publish articles in military newspapers.
But by sheer chance, the word "Glory" reflected both Nie Rong and Nie Yao, which made the old man extremely happy.
He said, "Your Uncle Liang is currently in mainland China. He calls me every day to tell me about the situation there."
He then said with a smile, "It just so happens that I also want to go and see what the place where Ah Yao prints newspapers every day is like."
Chen Rou didn't know how to explain, so she let the misunderstanding continue for the time being, letting the old man think that his second son was very capable.
If he were willing to go to Shenzhen, his reputation in the Asia-Pacific region would effectively promote the city's openness, and similarly, it would bring good, legitimate business opportunities, unlike now, where almost all those going to the mainland are unscrupulous Taiwanese businessmen looking to make dirty money.
Moreover, it wouldn't be appropriate for Nie Zhao to go in a high-profile manner. Chen Rou was his wife and the vice chairman of the Nie family, so it wasn't convenient for her either. However, through Nie Rong, Chen Rou suddenly thought of something. But she didn't tell Nie Rong. Instead, after they came out, she said to Secretary An, "Contact the Shenzhen Municipal Government and ask about the reception protocol, vehicles, and whether military and police security will be provided. Remember to let me know after you receive the reply."
Secretary An subconsciously said, "I'm afraid ordinary people like us don't have the same level of security as the military and police."
No matter how famous Nie Rong is, he is still just a businessman. According to international practice, unless someone is a member of the military or political circles, they should not be received by the military or police. However, some people are abusing the power of the military and police.
Chen Rou was once a soldier, and now she is just a businessman's wife, so it's not appropriate for her to directly criticize this kind of thing.
But she had to use some methods to curb that unhealthy trend.
Secretary An readily agreed: "Okay, I will inform you as soon as possible."
He glanced at his watch and said, "The boss asked me to tell you that you need to go to Versace alone today. The company is having its annual meeting tomorrow, and you'll need to wear something appropriate for that."
Chen Rou, who was also spoiled, frowned and asked, "Where is your boss? He's been back for several days, but I haven't seen him at all. What has he been busy with lately?"
Secretary An smiled: "The gold mine, and also... he said he'd tell you more when he gets home tomorrow."
Chen Rou nodded, stepped out of the elevator into the lobby, and suddenly leaned close to Secretary An, sniffing her a few times.
Secretary An was naturally startled by her. He was already middle-aged, and he was so pathetic that whenever Boss Nie saw Third Wife with Song Yuanchao, the refined Hank, and the muscular Ram together, he would take a second look.
But he wouldn't, after all, he not only has a belly, but also shows signs of balding recently due to working overtime every day.
But why would the landlady suddenly smell him? She could grab the boss's tie and pull him away.
But Secretary An was afraid of her boss. After all, he had a mortgage and a child, and he was under a lot of financial pressure and was afraid of losing his job.
The landlady is so aggressive; if word gets back to the boss, it could be fatal.
Then the landlady came over again, and Secretary An's mind was filled with alarm bells. Then she heard her say, "Your boss's hemorrhoids have flared up again, haven't they? I can smell it. It's the smell of the medicine that Kuangzai prescribed for him. Is he doing a fumigation treatment at the company?"
Secretary An's heart nearly leaped out of her chest, only to find out it was because of this.
Although his boss had ordered him not to tell anyone, he still said, "It just happened suddenly one day, and it was quite serious."
As soon as Chen Rou went downstairs, the doorman in the lobby went to get her a car. She stopped and waited for the car, asking, "Which day?"
