Chapter 280 Wait and See
As soon as Grandma Mu said this, not only were the others stunned, but even Mu Lingfeng was shocked. Didn’t Grandma say before that she would evaluate me for a year and let me make some achievements before letting me become the general manager? Why did she change her mind now?
"Okay, I've finished what I want to say. Let's eat!" Without waiting for everyone to respond, Old Lady Mu continued to give orders the next second.
After saying that, she immediately lowered her head and started eating seriously.
Seeing her like this, Mu Chengkun, who was about to speak, suppressed the words and started eating.
Seeing that Mu Chengkun had no intention of refutation, Mu Shaoqing could only lower his head and eat his meal in depression.
Seeing that neither her husband nor her son had any intention of speaking, Lu Feng could only suppress her dissatisfaction and eat in silence.
Mu Yunzhu and Zhu Dongpeng, who were sitting opposite Mu Chengkun's family, were very happy about Old Madam Mu's decision. They had always treated Mu Lingfeng as their own son.
Now, Mu Lingfeng is able to be valued by Old Lady Mu, and as such, they must be very happy.
Moreover, in the Mu family, judging from the business ability, no one except Mu Lingfeng can take on this important task. Only by handing over the Mu family to Mu Lingfeng will Mu Yunzhu and the others feel at ease.
Both publicly and privately, Mu Yunzhu and his wife hope that Mu Lingfeng will be able to take charge of the Mu Group in the future. That way, they will have no worries.
"Lingfeng, come with me." After dinner, Old Madam Mu invited Mu Lingfeng to follow her into the study.
"Are you a little surprised by grandma's previous decision?" As soon as she closed the door of the study, Old Lady Mu came straight to the point.
Mu Lingfeng nodded and said frankly: "A little bit indeed."
After a pause, Mu Lingfeng asked, "What happened that made grandma suddenly change her previous decision?"
"After talking to you that day, I thought a lot. I handed over the two projects to you without giving you any position in the group. I was worried that you would have a lot of inconveniences when you were operating them."
"For this reason, I specifically asked several major shareholders of the group. They all had no objection to you becoming the general manager of the group. In this case, I might as well let you become the general manager in advance. That way, it will also be convenient for you to work today."
Old Madam Mu looked at Mu Lingfeng and explained to him with a smile.
"Thank you, grandma." Mu Lingfeng didn't expect that Grandma Mu had done so much work for him behind the scenes.
"Why thank you? I'm doing this for the good of the group. After all, if you do those two projects well, the group will definitely benefit the most."
Old Lady Mu still responded with a smile.
Mu Lingfeng nodded, deeply agreeing with what Old Lady Mu said.
"But let me be frank with you. If you don't achieve any results within a year, I will definitely take back your position as general manager."
After a pause, Old Madam Mu looked at Mu Lingfeng seriously and said.
"Don't worry, grandma. I will definitely not let you down." Mu Lingfeng nodded and said confidently.
"I have never doubted your ability, so I will hand over these two major projects of the group to you. However, I need to remind you that after you return to the group, you can no longer act recklessly like you did in your own company."
"You are new here, and the senior employees will definitely not buy into your ideas so easily. You should be careful to keep a low profile and don't let anyone catch you."
"Also, you should pay attention to maintaining good relationships with your colleagues. Be careful that some people may not obey you and do something shady to you behind your back."
Old Madam Mu kindly reminded Mu Lingfeng.
Mu Lingfeng nodded again and responded: "Grandma, I understand what you said. I will pay attention to it."
Right in front of us are our biggest enemies, my second uncle and his son.
Mu Lingfeng knew very well that Mu Chengkun and his son would not let him off if he became the general manager of the group, and they might find a way to deal with him next.
"Okay, I still have things to deal with, you go out first." After everything that needed to be said had been said, Old Madam Mu waved her hand, indicating that Mu Lingfeng could leave.
"Grandma, take care of yourself and don't work too hard." Mu Lingfeng replied with concern and left the study.
As soon as he went out, Mu Lingfeng saw Mu Chengkun waiting outside. He greeted him politely, "Second Uncle."
"You are quite capable, you even managed to coax your grandmother into letting you become the general manager of the group."
When he saw Mu Lingfeng, Mu Chengkun was furious. As the second master of the Mu family, he was not qualified to be the general manager of the group, so why should his nephew be able to do so?
"Uncle, the group has always looked at ability when selecting talents. Maybe grandma is willing to give me this opportunity because she sees my outstanding ability."
"Second Uncle, since I can become the general manager of the group, if you and Shaoqing work harder, you should also be able to hold important positions in the group."
Hearing Mu Chengkun's sarcastic words, Mu Lingfeng deliberately said something that could hit the other party's sore spot.
Because of their lack of ability and evil intentions, even though Mu Chengkun and his son had already joined the group, they have not been valued by Old Lady Mu so far, which has always made them dissatisfied.
Unexpectedly, Mu Lingfeng would not join the group, but once he joined, he would be appointed to such an important position as the general manager of the group. How could Mu Chengkun and his son be willing to accept this?
"Don't be so proud of yourself. I want to see how long you can stay as the general manager."
Angered by Mu Lingfeng's words, Mu Chengkun made no secret of his inner thoughts.
"Then let's wait and see." Mu Lingfeng, who had never taken the other party seriously, answered calmly.
He might not be as good as Mu Chengkun and his son in terms of dirty tricks, but in terms of ability, he, Mu Lingfeng, is certainly no worse than them.
Although Mu Lingfeng is not good at using underhanded tactics, he will never let Mu Chengkun and his son off easily if they dare to provoke him in the future.
After saying that, Mu Lingfeng smiled faintly at Mu Chengkun and left gracefully.
"You little bastard, just wait for me." Staring at Mu Lingfeng's receding back, Mu Chengkun roared in his heart.
After calming himself down, Mu Chengkun knocked on the door of Old Madam Mu's study.
"Come in!" Old Lady Mu, who had expected Mu Chengkun to come to see her, immediately frowned and responded when she heard the knock on the door.
"Mom, how can you let Ling Feng become the general manager as soon as he returns to the group? If you do that, the company's major shareholders and the group's top management will definitely be dissatisfied."
As soon as he entered the study, Mu Chengkun stated his purpose directly.
"You can rest assured about this. Before letting Ling Feng become the general manager, I had already talked to those people separately, and they all had no objection to my decision."
Anticipating that Mu Chengkun would use this as an excuse, Old Lady Mu had made preparations in advance.
"If you ask them like that, even if they are not convinced in their hearts, they dare not say it out loud." Mu Chengkun did not agree with the answer of Old Lady Mu.
"Why, do you think that I, an old woman, have the final say in the group, and others dare not raise any opinions about what I say?"
Old Madam Mu glared at Mu Chengkun and asked.
"That's not what I meant. I just think that Ling Feng just returned to the group and shouldn't be in such an important position. If he does this, how will others view our Mu family?"
Seeing that Old Madam Mu was unhappy, Mu Chengkun immediately changed his words.
"You also know how to consider what others think of our Mu family. I thought that as the second master of the Mu family, you didn't care at all."
Looking at Mu Chengkun, Old Lady Mu snorted coldly.
After a half-second pause, Old Lady Mu continued to criticize Mu Chengkun, "I arranged for you and Shaoqing to join the group, but how did you do it? What did the shareholders of the group say about our Mu family?"
"If Ling Feng is not allowed to join the group, when I step down, will there still be a place for our Mu family in the Mu Corporation?"
When Lady Mu said this, she sighed, and her expression softened a little as she said, "Cheng Kun, it's not that I didn't give you and Shao Qing a chance, it's just that you guys really disappointed me."
“Mom, I…” Mu Chengkun was left speechless by what Old Madam Mu said. He opened his mouth but didn’t know what to say.
"Shao Kun, I just hope that after Ling Feng comes to the group, you and Shao Qing will think of the fact that you are a family and not become his enemy. If possible, you and your son can fight side by side with Ling Feng."
Staring at Mu Chengkun, Old Lady Mu asked earnestly.
After she said this, seeing that Mu Chengkun didn't react at all, Old Lady Mu said with a bit of dismay, "I'm tired, you go out!"
After taking a look at Old Madam Mu, Mu Chengkun silently left the study.
Asking him to help Mu Lingfeng is absolutely impossible!
