Chu Fang sat downstairs for a while, and only when the line for the elevator thinned out did he leisurely head to the company.
Upon entering the company, Chu Fang saw his former colleague Dai Yixin chatting with the receptionist. When they saw Chu Fang, their smiles disappeared, and their expressions turned serious: "Good morning, President Chu."
"Hmm." Chu Fang hummed softly and headed into the company.
"Hiss... Chu Fang looks so grim today? Is he dissatisfied with our work?" Dai Yixin stroked her chin. She knew Chu Fang a little; he was usually a kind person with a smile on his face, but today he looked miserable. Dai Yixin felt a little scared.
"No, I can't keep slacking off. I have to get back to work so as not to offend President Chu. I really don't want to lose my job."
Chu Fang loathed his work. When he entered the company, he remained expressionless no matter who greeted him, instantly creating a tense atmosphere throughout the entire Yatenyige company.
Everyone worked diligently, afraid of offending Chu Fang.
Chu Fang had no idea that a simple greeting could put the entire company on edge; entering the office felt like entering a prison.
Chu Fang slumped onto the office sofa: "Ugh, my head hurts so much."
Just as he was feeling down, several managers from Yaten Yige came to the office. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear.
"Old Zhang, knock on the door."
"Why shouldn't you knock?"
"I'm afraid of President Chu."
"You think I'm not scared anymore?"
Chu Fang has only visited Ya Tengye Pavilion a handful of times, and each time he was received by Ma Junjie. He has never spoken to these managers, which is why these managers have a deep-seated fear of Chu Fang, the true controller of the company.
Their jobs, status, and salaries all depended on a single word from Chu Fang.
Furthermore, they knew that Yatenyige was not important to Chu Fang, and that they would not care about any loss of interests if they were dismissed.
Several managers lingered outside for a while before knocking on the door together.
Ding ding ding... ...
Upon hearing the word "Please come in," several managers immediately entered the room. Seeing Chu Fang sitting in a chair, they greeted him in unison, "President Chu."
"Is there something you need?" Chu Fang asked.
"Before Mr. Ma left, he asked us to explain the work we were going to do next to you and to sign various documents."
It's finally here... Chu Fang sighed: "Speak."
Chu Fang then officially began working, listening to various matters concerning Yatenyige, including entertaining clients and reviewing company financial statements.
An hour later, Chu Fang was slumped on the sofa, looking like the Chinese character "大" (big).
He finally understood a famous saying: Life is like rape; if you can't resist, then just lie back and enjoy it.
"Come on, you can kill me already."
Just then, the HR manager knocked on the door and came in, saying, "President Chu, we hired a few people today. Would you like to take a look?"
Chu Fang sat up abruptly: "Look!"
"Huh?" The HR manager was taken aback.
You, the top boss of this company, actually want to meet with a newly hired junior employee? Are you sure you have a problem with that?
Puzzled, the HR manager led Chu Fang to the conference room. As soon as they entered, Chu Fang heard a sharp and loud voice: "Hey, what are you doing here?"
Chu Fang looked in the direction of the sound and saw the little girl with the craving for food from this morning, and immediately smiled.
This was the only genuine laugh he gave today.
The HR manager, with a stern face, said, "This is our company's General Manager Chu."
The little girl's pupils dilated, filled with disbelief.
Finally, Chu Fang said a few words to encourage his subordinates before leaving. The young woman was quite surprised: "Huh? He didn't fire me? What happened?"
"Hmm... According to what they show on TV, he must like me, that's why he forgave me. Oh dear, Mr. Chu likes me, what should I do? If he confesses, should I reject him? But he's so handsome, I can't refuse him; but my mom says handsome men are all liars, but I'd be willing to be a liar, though liars always tell lies..."
The little girl was caught in this dilemma all day long.
That afternoon, when she saw Zhong Tingyue come to the company to pick up Chu Fang from get off work, this conflict vanished instantly.
"What, what is that?" the little girl stammered.
"Isn't she beautiful? She was once the undisputed beauty of our company, without a doubt."
Dai Yixin said, "That's President Chu's fiancée. She was also an employee of Yateng Yige. Back then, President Chu lowered his stance and personally entered the company to pursue Sister Zhong. In the end, he won her heart and bought Yateng Yige, gaining both. This is a well-known story in the company."
Young woman: "Oh, Mr. Chu must be very devoted, right?"
"Of course, apart from Sister Zhong, no other girl can catch his eye."
The little girl felt she had wasted a day: "Sigh!"
He patted his stomach and said, "I'm hungry, let's go eat!"
... ...
Zhong Tingyue linked arms with Chu Fang as they stepped out of the elevator. He asked, "Why are you here?"
Zhong Tingyue smiled faintly: "I figured you weren't very happy on your first day of work, so I came to pick you up. How were you? Happy?"
Chu Fang: "Ms. Zhong, you're so kind, but you're such a fool..."
Zhong Tingyue frowned slightly: "Hmm?"
Chu Fang gazed at the horizon: "I don't know what's wrong with the weather this year. It's only been summer for a short while, and it hasn't been cool at all. Has the heavens gone mad?"
Your change of topic was too abrupt... Zhong Tingyue was speechless, but she didn't press the matter further. She took Chu Fang's arm and headed home.
Back in her apartment complex, after buying the groceries for the evening, Zhong Tingyue received an unexpected phone call from her biological father, Zhong Ping.
This elderly father is currently working on a construction site in Shanghai and doesn't even want Chu Fang to tell him he's in Shanghai. Why is he suddenly calling her?
Zhong Tingyue thought for a moment about whether to expose her father's secret, but ultimately decided not to.
She answered the phone, and a stranger's voice answered: "Are you Zhong Ping's eldest daughter?"
"Yes."
"Your father is in trouble!"
