Wang Yao was bewildered when Ke Ke announced this rule. Did he have to keep his identity secret during meetings? Did it mean he couldn't reveal he was the Matchmaker God during meetings? What kind of strange rule was this? How could it cause chaos in the human world?
If the Lion-Roar Beast Guardian Cai were outside the door, and heard these people in the meeting calling themselves immortals, he would only think that they were a bunch of madmen making a fuss. Notifying the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Huayi Hospital was possible, but causing social chaos would probably not cause such a big commotion.
Next, Ke Ke went on to list several other rules, such as not being allowed to use their phones during meetings, whispering, or doing personal things, etc. Wang Yao understood all of them, so he listened attentively. Wei Cai then came in and added hot water again.
"Put the hot water in the conference room, we'll pour it ourselves," Lü Xian interrupted Ke Ke, saying to Wei Cai. Wei Cai nodded, put down the water bottle, and went out the door.
"...Now we invite the office director, Director Lü, to speak!" After reading the meeting notes, Ke Ke invited Lü Xian to give a report and then took the lead in applauding.
"Ahem..." Lu Xian nodded solemnly, looking at the immortals in the conference room who were applauding.
His handsome young face was expressionless, as if he had a grudge against everyone present. His cold eyes swept over the crowd of immortals below the stage, and the applause gradually subsided. Wang Yao felt that he seemed to have given him a special look.
Under that gaze, Wang Yao unconsciously stopped slapping, his back stiffened, and he couldn't help but straighten his posture, sitting obediently like a primary school student, waiting quietly for Lü Xian to speak.
"As you may have noticed, this meeting is actually an ad hoc one. Our office's ninth plenary meeting is not scheduled for until next month, but in order to respond to the higher authorities' requirements to reduce the number of meetings, hold more practical meetings, and improve meeting efficiency..."
"I deliberately arranged the two meetings together, so this meeting has two agendas: one is the agenda for the extraordinary meeting, and the other is the agenda for the ninth plenary meeting of the office. First, let me talk about the issue of the extraordinary meeting."
"Everyone should have seen the documents issued from above. Ladies and gentlemen, they are shocking! I just spoke with Lao Mo on the phone not long ago, about a colleague in our office..."
At this point, Lü Xian gave Wang Yao another cold look.
"...Old Mo is a veteran, but I never expected that he would still run into trouble. I reminded him when I talked to him on the phone last time that the more mothers-in-law he had, the less responsibility he would bear, but he still didn't understand!"
"He made such a mistake, and as his colleague and friend, I am truly heartbroken..." At this point, Lü Xian shook his handsome head vigorously, almost flicking his beard into the teacup, his face full of regret.
"Foreign affairs are never trivial, everyone. As far as I know, the fact that the foreign god War is at the South Heavenly Gate means that he is a subordinate of Ares, the war god of the foreign world. Who is Ares? He is a great power who lived in the same era as our Nan Hua and Tai Shang. How can we take him lightly?"
"If Lao Mo had just reported this to his superiors, waited a little longer, or gone back to his office to look up the relevant regulations and followed the proper procedures, things wouldn't have escalated to this point..."
"Through this incident, I've also discovered a very serious problem within our ranks! This problem is so egregious that it can no longer be ignored or tolerated! What is it? It's that many of us disobey orders and disregard prohibitions in our work!"
Lu Xian tapped her fingers on the table with a loud thud, her voice suddenly rising and her sharp voice echoing like a whistle in the quiet conference room.
“We, the high-ranking officials within the system, are subject to strict requirements in every word, deed, and action. There are clear rules and regulations to follow. However, some of us, after working for a long time and gaining seniority, have become arrogant and have completely disregarded these rules and regulations…”
"He does whatever he wants, thinks he's the most important person in the world, and forgets all about organization, discipline, superiors and subordinates, relationships with ordinary people and foreigners. He only does things according to his own whims!"
"This won't do, everyone! This is a serious mistake! Old Mo is a prime example. He's a former bureau chief, and he still made a mistake. This should serve as a wake-up call for us!"
"Look, as you all see, I specifically had the office print out all the rules and regulations of the Heavenly Court regarding foreign affairs. I will have Hu Ke lead everyone in studying them carefully later. Everyone must cherish this learning opportunity, learn from past mistakes, and never repeat them!"
Hu Fei sat there, his chubby face contorted in a grimace. This wasn't leading everyone in learning; it was just reading from a book—a thick, unreadable volume. Who knew when it would take?
"There's another person involved in this document who's from our office. You should all know him. That's right, it's Xi Fu. Luckily, he resigned. If he hadn't, I probably would have been punished too!"
"He's incredibly audacious! How dare he cause trouble in the foreign lands? Who does Xi Fu think he is? He didn't do his job properly when he was in charge of the Matchmaker. The Heavenly Court shut down his celestial realm, and now he comes here to cause trouble?"
"I say it's good to shut it down! For this kind of person, not only should their office equipment be shut down, but they should also be removed from the system long ago!"
"Expect him to do anything? Everyone should remember him, right? He's always been cunning and deceitful, two-faced and hypocritical. He's been playing matchmaker for so many years, how many of his jobs have he actually done? On the contrary, he's done plenty of things that harm people. This time he's finally been wanted, very good! This kind of black sheep should be executed!"
