Jiang Chengcheng was worried and afraid, but some people were no less worried than she was.
Shen Qin was also full of worries at this moment, of course because of the secret she had.
She has now successfully taken up her post and has settled down in the "Snake Ring".
But the problem was that during the job interview, I only had a brief interaction with Xu Shiguang.
She wasn't in good shape at the time, but when the other person took the opportunity to help her up, a strange thought flashed through her mind and she realized that this guy was definitely trying to influence her with his abilities.
However, she was somewhat prepared for this. Her brother's experience had given her a lot of useful information, such as that Xu Shi's ability should also be a form of mental influence.
Psychological intervention is not ineffective until it is fully completed; at least if she takes precautions in advance, it can be rendered ineffective with some effort.
However, she did not act rashly. Instead, she kept a watchful eye on things and allowed the other party's ability to develop within her body for the time being. This would make Xu Shi lower his guard, and when the time was right, it would be a fatal blow.
That wasn't her concern.
What she was really worried about was whether Xu Shi had realized that she possessed two superpowers. The situation was urgent at the time, and her response was relatively hasty. Given his intelligence, he might not have been completely unaware of it.
Actually, a better way would be to implant some means to prevent self-healing in advance, so that the past can be perfectly avoided... But in this way, "Blood Burning Release" will also be affected, and she is not yet able to clearly distinguish between the two superpowers.
If she really did that, she might not even pass the interview... Moreover, for a clan leader to display such a low level of competence would only raise more suspicion.
However, she had taken the medicine, so it should be able to be explained away. She just needed to find an opportunity to confirm it... Shen Qin comforted herself in her heart.
However, these difficult days were really unbearable, and she still felt quite heavy-hearted.
"Deputy Team Leader Nan, don't get distracted."
Just then, Xia Wuyou's reminder rang in his ears.
"...Sorry, Team Leader Xia, I didn't get enough rest last night."
Shen Qin snapped out of her daze and quickly put on an apologetic smile.
"That's not an excuse for your mind to wander."
Xia Wuyou didn't give her any face, her tone carrying a hint of reprimand, "Although it's just security work for the board of directors, you still need to be on your guard."
"yes."
Shen Qin humbly accepted the instruction and quickly straightened her posture.
But she was quite unhappy about it.
To be honest, after passing the interview smoothly, the appointment as "Deputy Leader of the Third Field Operations Group" was neither good nor bad for her.
On the one hand, the job isn't too busy; when there are no missions, the field team just needs to be on standby... Plus, they have a bit of power, so getting in touch with the core areas isn't as difficult as you might imagine.
Unfortunately, the leader of Group Three was Xia Wuyou, and she had absolutely no liking for this woman. Working under her was truly frustrating.
She didn't know if Xu Shi's arrangement was intentional, but upon closer reflection, it probably wasn't. The position of deputy group leader of the third group had always been vacant; it wasn't a trap specifically set for her.
Moreover, Shen Qin was certain that her identity had not been exposed. No matter how she thought about it, Xu Shi could not possibly know that she was actually Shen He's sister, right? Even if he did become suspicious or pay special attention to her, it could only be because of her identity as the leader of the "Forgotten Ones".
Endure, endure.
Their job today was very simple: to be responsible for security at the board meeting. To put it bluntly, they just had to stand at the door.
Meanwhile, the meeting behind the door was already in full swing.
As a director of the group, Xu Shi is enthusiastically planning the company's next steps, such as the acceptance and resettlement of the "Forgotten Ones," the revenue from the "Overlimit Plan," and future developments in this area.
"So, while we're working on the second phase of our collaboration with 'Prism,' I also want to develop some derivative products on our own, 'Snake Ring.'"
He said very seriously, "Manager Jiang has already done some work in this regard, and I will also arrange a special project team to take charge of it."
No one else had any objection to this.
Everyone knows that Chairman Xu is completely different from what he was a few months ago. Now he has absolute authority in the company, and this is not a foolish move. Just applaud and agree.
The truth is that most shareholders don't care about actual affairs at all; they're happy as long as they get dividends. As for anything else... they just need to choose sides based on the prevailing winds.
When something happens, just say "yes, yes, yes," it's never wrong.
"However, although the engineering department has expanded, it is still somewhat short-staffed."
Xu Shi continued, “Therefore, even if Supervisor Jiang wanted to do this project alone, he was powerless to do it.”
"So, after discussion, I hope to hand this matter over to someone else."
"Uncle Lin, can you take responsibility?"
He looked at Lin Wenhua and asked very sincerely.
"……I?"
Lin Wenhua was taken aback by these words and didn't react for a while before finally coming to her senses. "I... I guess I'll just let it go?"
Not only was he surprised, but everyone else was astonished, wondering if there was something wrong with their ears.
After all, everyone knows that Xu Shi and Lin Wenhua are two opposing forces vying for power, and Lin Wenhua's side has become somewhat dispirited after several setbacks.
At this critical juncture, what does it mean that Xu Shi chose to entrust him with such an important project?
Most people instinctively considered the issue of checks and balances, wondering if this was a concern that Jiang Chengcheng was becoming too prominent, so they wanted to give her a proper warning? But that shouldn't be the case, since Xu Shi promoted that girl himself; logically, there should be no need for such a move...
But the fact is that the arrangements made at today's meeting basically did not involve her, and there was even a hint that she was being squeezed out of her original team.
Everyone was a bit confused; all I can say is, you can't guess what the boss is thinking.
However, Lin Wenhua had a sharp eye and immediately understood Xu Shi's meaning.
Is this a deliberate attempt to put oneself in the spotlight and put oneself on the fire?
Ultimately, he doesn't have much of an advantage in this area, but with the title of the person in charge, he can't escape responsibility if something goes wrong... Well, this little brat, he's giving me a hand on the surface, but in reality, he's probably hoping I'll make a mistake.
But upon closer analysis, he couldn't refuse this offer either. His position in the company was already precarious, and even without this incident, he would have fallen from grace sooner or later.
Tsk...
"In that case, I guarantee I will complete the task and live up to Chairman Xu's expectations."
After much deliberation, Lin Wenhua agreed.
"Then I'll leave it to Uncle Lin."
Xu Shi smiled and nodded, glancing at Su Lin intentionally or unintentionally.
I told you so.
