"This is a small gift from our board of directors to President Li. Why don't you open it and take a look before making a decision?"
As Cage walked out of Li Yue's office, the thought of Li Yue's pale, slightly greasy face made him chuckle with satisfaction, letting him be arrogant.
"Just now, what did Father prepare for that old bastard Li Yue? It scared him so much."
"Young Master, be careful what you say. It was just an ordinary gift."
Cage's mood soured immediately. He dismissed his men, leaving only his father's chief assistant.
"Assistant, can't you even tell me? I'm your young master, the future ruler of Keynes."
The assistant, who knew a little about the inside story, immediately lowered his head to do his work. Whether he was in charge was uncertain, after all, judging from the chairman's recent decision and cooperation with that person, it was still too early to say.
“Young Master, please don’t make things difficult for your subordinate. Keep this matter a secret for now. When it’s your turn to know, you will naturally find out. You will be the one in charge of Keynes in the future, so why bother with such a trivial matter?”
Looking at the other person's humble demeanor, where only the back of their head was visible, Cage laughed in exasperation, "You really can't say that."
"Of course not."
"Alright, last time I accidentally barged into my father's office and saw him talking to someone. He seemed unhappy. Why was that? Who was that person?"
assistant:……
"Speak up, tell me, and I won't mind what happened today. Otherwise, you're dead!"
The assistant gave a wry smile. "Young Master, why make things difficult for a mere assistant like me? I really don't know who that person is, but his identity is extraordinary. It's likely that some things couldn't be agreed upon. I don't know everything about the chairman's affairs either."
The assistant had expected Cage to erupt in fury and was prepared, but instead, there was only a silent rebuke.
“You’re right. You’re just a junior assistant. How can you know everything? I used to know everything, but now I don’t.”
After saying that, he muttered to himself, "Father, what is he thinking?"
The assistant straightened up, slightly relieved; thankfully, they had gotten away with it.
"Young Master, there's no need to overthink it. Everything the Chairman does is for your benefit. The most important thing for you is to win over Miss Julie as soon as possible. I'll be leaving now."
In no time, the small garden was empty. A figure emerged from behind a green tree that was almost three people wide. It was Chu Xinglin, who had not been seen for a long time.
After giving the freshman speech, he went back to his own company to handle some matters and only returned today, just in time to see the people from Keynes coming to see Dean Li.
Chu Xinglin couldn't help but look at the closed door of Li Yue. It seemed that a lot had happened in the academy while he was away, and even the internal workings of Keynes seemed to have undergone some changes.
Just because Cage couldn't see the assistant's strange behavior doesn't mean that Chu Xinglin, a smart man, couldn't.
It seems he needs to know about some recent major events.
Just as she was thinking this, she saw Wei Guang hurrying past in the distance. Remembering the things she had prepared before coming, she couldn't help but chase after him.
"Wei Guang, wait for me."
Oh no, I heard that jinx's voice in the academy! Run!
"Meeting a jinx is never a good thing."
"Talking about people behind their backs is not gentlemanly behavior."
Chu Xinglin stopped Wei Guang, finding it somewhat amusing; he was still so childish.
"Then I'm sorry, but I'll say it to your face: you're a jinx."
"Wei Guang!"
Chu Xinglin sighed, "Don't always treat me with such a hostile attitude. I'm tired of it too."
