Chapter 1620 Which deity will save me?
While Lu Junyi was deeply troubled by Zhuo Minglan, Shan Shengwen nervously entered Li Ye's office and began to reflect on his actions with his head down.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Li, I didn't handle Zhuo Minglan's matter well; it was my mistake."
Li Ye asked in surprise, "What work mistake did you make? Didn't you process it for her according to the regulations?"
Shan Shengwen opened his mouth, then said, "I didn't notice Zhuo Minglan's emotions. She just came back from the police station and was quite agitated, so I didn't manage to calm her down, which led to this huge mess."
Li Ye chuckled and said, "You did the right thing. Just because she's in a bad mood doesn't mean you have to shamelessly comfort her. There's no such rule in our company. As long as you don't break any principles, even if you cause a huge mess, it's not your problem."
Shan Shengwen chuckled awkwardly and said, "I'm relieved that President Li said so."
"Um?"
Li Ye felt something was off, so he looked at Shan Shengwen and asked, "What do you mean by that? Was there something you were worried about before?"
Shan Shengwen pursed his lips and said awkwardly, "Actually, it's like this: after my wife and child started working at the branch factory, they were allocated two apartments."
Zhuo Minglan questioned me today about whether this was in accordance with the rules, and I blurted out that it was specially approved by General Manager Li. "Go ahead and ask General Manager Li if you dare."
Li Ye suddenly realized: "Good heavens, no wonder she was so resentful! You've shifted the blame!"
Shan Shengwen was even more embarrassed.
He was one of the few people from Southwest Heavy Truck who remained with the Jingnan Group. Although he was labeled as Li Ye, his status in Beijing was actually quite delicate.
Today, when Zhuo Minglan was "comparing" with him in front of everyone in the office, Shan Shengwen noticed the strange looks from his colleagues.
Shan Shengwen's wife and children were all arranged by Li Ye to work at the No. 1 factory, a privilege that many of Li Ye's "old subordinates" did not receive. Zhuo Minglan was not the only one who wanted to compete with him.
So when Shan Shengwen shouted "Go find President Li if you dare" today, he also had a selfish motive of "shocking the whole audience".
As a result, Li Ye got into all this trouble. In the workplace, if a subordinate causes such a disturbance in the street for his superior, the superior will at least give him a severe scolding.
However, Li Ye didn't seem to care at all, and casually said, "Forget it, let's just shift the blame! If you have to handle every problem yourself, then what's the point of having me as General Manager Li? Just put an empty chair here, isn't that enough?"
“.”
Shan Shengwen was stunned for a while before he realized that Li Ye was not being sarcastic, but was genuinely taking responsibility.
It's not that Shan Shengwen is overly suspicious; it's just that bosses who are willing to clean up their subordinates' messes are really rare—you might only meet a handful in your entire life.
Shan Shengwen perked up and cautiously asked, "So, what should be done with Zhuo Minglan's work afterwards? She wants to be reinstated to her former rank."
When Zhuo Minglan was promoted to financial assistant by Shang Bin, she had already reached the rank of deputy section chief. That's why Zhuo Minglan was dissatisfied with Shan Shengwen's arrangement; she wanted a substantive deputy section chief position.
Moreover, because of the departure of those people from Southwest Heavy Truck, there are indeed vacancies for this kind of substantive position. If we really want to settle things peacefully, giving her one wouldn't be a big deal.
However, Li Ye said calmly, "No need to make arrangements, she won't stay for long."
"Oh? Should I think of a way?"
Shan Shengwen was stunned again, his mind racing with all sorts of ways and tricks to "make things difficult" for Zhuo Minglan, calculating which one would be most suitable.
He had served as the head of a subordinate unit when he was at Southwest Heavy Truck, so he had experience in forcing people out of the company.
What are you trying to do?
Li Ye looked at Shan Shengwen strangely, then said, "You don't need to put her down. You help me investigate something, and someone else will take care of it."
“.”
Completely bewildered, Shan Shengwen had no choice but to obediently follow Li Ye's arrangements.
Li Ye whispered, "Old Dan, you know about Shang Bin's wife, right?"
Dan Shengwen, puzzled, nodded and said, "I know a little, but we all work at Southwest Heavy Truck, so we don't know much about confidential matters."
"Basic information is fine: name, age, and the specific date you left the country."
"I know all of that."
"Okay, you sort it out for me, and then you don't need to worry about the rest."
“.”
In the West, there are private investigators. As long as you are willing to spend a little money, people from certain agencies will deliver information to you.
Actually, Li Ye didn't want to make such a big fuss, but after seeing Zhuo Minglan's firm and stubborn eyes today, he suddenly felt that this woman was really obsessed.
Shang Bin has already been transferred to a higher-level department, so why is she still lingering here with Li Ye?
Is he biding his time, hoping to make a comeback?
After all, Shang Bin knew he had been transferred, not that he was dead.
[You're not trying to become a thorn in Shangbin's side, are you? Whether you are a thorn or not, I'm going to remove you.]
Oh, right, there's one more thing.
As Shan Shengwen was walking away, Li Ye suddenly said, "Our group has always valued the health of our employees. Could you contact a suitable hospital and arrange a physical examination for all employees before the Spring Festival?"
"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it right away."
Shan Shengwen's cheeks started twitching.
Everyone saw what Zhuo Minglan looked like today. That poor young man who was kept in the dark is really pitiful. Li Ye's actions clearly show that he wants to save Xiao Lu from his predicament!
[President Li truly lives up to his reputation; he's incredibly good to his own people, but also incredibly ruthless to some!]
...
Kind-hearted Li Ye wanted to help Lu Junyi, but little did he know that Lu Junyi was too impatient and had already arranged a medical examination for Zhuo Minglan.
Then Zhuo Minglan exploded.
"I'm much better now, so I don't need to waste time or money."
"You should really get it checked out! Look how pale you are."
"What are you doing? Lu Junyi, what do you want to do? Are you all trying to force me to do something I don't want to do? You're all bullying me!"
“.”
Lu Junyi felt utterly disheartened.
Zhuo Minglan's resistance to the physical examination is so strong that it would be strange if she didn't have something to hide.
So Lu Junyi gritted his teeth and said firmly, "Minglan, premarital checkups are required for marriage, and given your health issues, I think it's normal. But your strong opposition is abnormal."
Zhuo Minglan suddenly laughed: "What's wrong with me? What are you investigating? What do you, Lu Junyi, want to investigate? Have you considered whether you'll still get married if you find out something? Do you want to get a divorce right after getting the marriage certificate?"
"you"
Lu Junyi was stunned; he never expected Zhuo Minglan to say such a thing.
Getting a divorce right after getting the marriage certificate—isn't that admitting that something might be discovered?
But if we get married so hastily and without a clear plan, how will we live for the next few decades?
[Oh God, what terrible things have I done? Which deity will save me?!]
