Yue Mingze noticed that her attention was entirely focused on the girl, and she seemed completely oblivious to any potential danger.
“I know them. He’s my friend’s housekeeper, and he’s also surnamed Yue.” Chen Yun’s words shocked Yue Mingze even more. “What? He’s also surnamed Yue!” Yue Mingze was truly stunned this time.
"Yes, yes, is there a problem with the surname Yue?" Chen Yun didn't understand why Yue Mingze looked so surprised. When she first met Yue Mingyuan, she had a good impression of him because of their surname.
Yue Mingyuan had already read Xu Zhaoyue's report. She was indeed a beautiful and kind-hearted older sister. "So what if she has the surname Yue? Does that mean we can't let others have the same surname?" She rolled her eyes.
"Cough cough, Yue Mingyuan, what's wrong with your brain?" Yue Mingze didn't want to reveal his guesses in front of outsiders, so he was too angry to say anything more.
Chen Yun watched the interaction between the brother and sister. They seemed to resemble Yue Lanxing in some ways, but she had only met them a few times and didn't remember them very clearly.
"Butler? Miss Chen just said she's your friend's butler?" Yue Mingze realized what Chen Yun had said earlier.
Chen Yun now realized that she shouldn't have said anything earlier. She felt that Yue Mingze's current state was a bit unpredictable, but since she had already spoken, there seemed to be no use in taking it back.
“Yes, that’s my friend, Xu Zhaoyue, the eldest daughter of the Xu family.” Chen Yun pointed to the individual profile at the back of the newspaper. “Yue Lanxing is her housekeeper. Anyway, he’s a reliable person. If the second young master Yue wants to see him, I can help him.”
"Oh really? Then let's wait until we have time later. We've just arrived in Shanghai, so we should find a place to stay and rest for a couple of days first." Yue Mingze wanted to check it out himself first; this was something he couldn't be careless about.
When Yue Mingyuan heard Chen Yun say that she knew a beautiful woman, she was overjoyed. "Chen Yun, you know her? Then you have to take me to meet her. I really want to see her wearing the clothes I designed."
Chen Yun knew that she liked to look at beautiful things, so she nodded in agreement first, then said goodbye to them and returned to her room. She needed to tell Xu Zhaoyue about this first.
Xu Zhaoyue had just finished communicating with the three managers when the blame was pinned on Manager Fang. However, it was also because his subordinates had misled him. He thought that once he handed over a lead, the task would be completed.
When Xu Zhaoyue handed the list to Xu Guangcai, Xu Guangcai's expression was incredibly varied. How could Lao Fang have admitted it? He should have given them a heads-up beforehand.
Xu Guangcai's thinking made sense. The three managers had indeed tried to find out more information, but Assistant Qi had been stopping them. Assistant Yan, who was in charge of the matter, made an excuse that he had business to attend to in another city and was always away on business trips, regardless of whether Xu Zhaoyue needed his help.
Therefore, it was inconvenient for the managers to contact him. Assistant Shi in the company did not want to cause trouble, so Xiao Qi used Xu Zhaoming's name to put pressure on him back and forth.
Xiao Qi did these things without hiding them from Xu Zhaoming, because in Xu Zhaoming's eyes, this was helping her. Not only did she not expose Xiao Qi, but she also provided a lot of assistance.
Now Xu Guangcai could no longer turn the tide and could only praise Xu Zhaoyue's efficiency. The final result was that Manager Fang resigned to take responsibility, and the entire Western Medicine Department was temporarily handed over to Xu Zhaoming for handling.
"This time I really reaped the benefits without lifting a finger, and now the whole department listens to me." Xu Zhaoming said smugly in his chair. "Xiao Qi, I have to thank you for helping me a lot."
Seeing how happy she was, Xiao Qi quickly offered his opinion, "Manager Xu, now that one part is in your hands, I think the chairman intends to promote others. What if someone difficult to talk to is promoted? Your job won't be easy either."
"Hmm? Are there any people in the department who can be promoted?" This made Xu Zhaoming think. The department is short of talent right now, so where can she find a capable person to promote and take away her power?
"It's better to be safe than sorry. What if the chairman brings someone over from another department?" Xiao Qi patiently analyzed the situation for Xu Zhaoming. In short, the current task is to keep a firm grip on one department.
Xu Zhaoming was dazzled by what he said. "Alright, alright, all of this is too complicated. As long as I occupy this pit and put my people in, isn't that enough?"
"Manager Xu is right. Do you have someone in mind?" Xiao Qi asked respectfully from the side. Only then did Xu Zhaoming realize that the person was right in front of him.
Xu Zhaoming immediately decided to promote Xiao Qi to the second-in-command, but said he would wait a few days before applying for a higher position, as applying now would be too unseemly.
When Xu Zhaoyue returned to her office, she wanted to invite Manager Yuan in for a chat, but unexpectedly, Manager Yuan left immediately, probably to see off his old colleague.
"Does Manager Yuan find the bond between colleagues so precious?" Xu Zhaoyue looked at Manager Yuan's hurried figure and really didn't know how to describe it.
Yue Lanxing glanced at it and then looked away. "He just wanted to give you a hard time, Miss. If you really cared that much, you could just take the blame yourself."
"Hahaha, what a blunt truth!" Xu Zhaoyue immediately burst out laughing, and Yue Lanxing joined in. This joy lasted until Chen Yun called. "Hello? Who is this?" Xu Zhaoyue answered the phone.
Upon hearing Xu Zhaoyue's voice, Chen Yun immediately recounted the whole story. "Ah? Such a thing happened? Okay, I understand. It's alright, it's alright. We'll have dinner together again when you come back." Xu Zhaoyue reassured her a few more times before hanging up.
Yue Lanxing watched from the side as the young lady's expression wasn't good, but it didn't seem like she was really in trouble. He couldn't guess what was wrong, so he just waited there. After Xu Zhaoyue put down the phone, she glanced at him and asked, "You really are from the capital, right?"
