But think about it, this is indeed Xia Zhichu's temper.
If I can solve the problem myself, I will never bother others!
"Oh, by the way, Manager Lan was fired, and the design department is leaderless. Who will the president decide to manage the design department?" Yan Sen suddenly remembered this. The design department is the main department of Peak Group. If no one is in charge, wouldn't it be a mess?
Si Mochen walked out of the elevator with a slightly furrowed brow.
He fired Manager Lan on a whim and did not consider the problems that would arise later.
"What do you think?" Si Mochen asked back.
Yan Sen thought for a moment and suggested a few names. "These are all excellent talents in the design department. They all have experience participating in Milan fashion shows and have won numerous honors. They are also relatively low-key in the design department. I think we can promote one of them to manage the design department."
Si Mochen hummed, "I'll leave this matter to you. Let the new manager take over this afternoon."
After saying that, he came to the black Rolls-Royce, opened the door, sat in the driver's seat, and drove away alone.
Before Yan Sen had time to ask him where he was going, Si Mochen had disappeared from his sight.
Twenty minutes later.
The car slowly stopped in front of a high-end cafe.
Si Mochen put on sunglasses, got out of the car, adjusted his suit jacket, and then walked into the coffee shop.
Led by the waiter to a private room, Si Mochen saw Si Guangxu sitting inside from afar, drinking coffee elegantly.
Seeing him appear, Si Guangxu put down his coffee cup, stood up and said to him, "Xiaochen, you're here."
Si Mochen didn't say anything and sat down opposite him.
The waiter quickly brought the coffee, but he didn't drink it. Instead, he asked directly, "Why did you go to see her?"
Si Guangxu naturally knew who this 'she' was.
"If I don't go and see, how can I know what kind of woman you like?"
Si Mochen frowned, slammed the table, stood up, and said angrily, "What I like is none of your business!"
He took great pains to protect Xia Zhichu because he didn't want his family to discover her existence. As a result, without his knowledge, Si Guangxu had already met Xia Zhichu first.
Fortunately, Si Guangxu didn't go too far, otherwise his tone would definitely not be so polite now.
The waiter was frightened by Si Mochen's action and stood there stupidly. Si Guangxu waved his hand to signal him to leave, and then said, "I am your father. The woman you want to marry must be considered by me."
"You don't deserve it!" Si Mochen's face looked very ugly, and he even pulled his collar in annoyance.
A man who can't even control his own marriage is not worthy of having his life restricted.
He would never repeat his father's path and marry a woman he didn't love, let alone let this woman control his life.
So he must marry Xia Zhichu!
Even though Si Guangxu had a good temper, he felt embarrassed to be contradicted by his son. Soon, his expression turned cold. "Xiaochen, in this family, I'm the only one who can help you!"
Si Mochen chuckled coldly, "Help? What can you offer to help?"
Although Si Guangxu holds the title of chairman of the Si Group, the ones who really run things behind the scenes are my grandfather and the woman behind him.
In Si Mochen's eyes, Si Guangxu was a powerless puppet, only worthy of being controlled by his grandfather and Chen Qin.
Si Guangxu sighed deeply and said, "You don't have to be so hostile to me. I know that I was incompetent and couldn't protect your mother back then, but you don't know my difficulties. If it were you, you would also..."
"I won't."
Before Si Guangxu could finish, Si Mochen interrupted impatiently, "I will use my own abilities to protect my woman, so you don't need to worry about it."
After saying this, Si Mochen stood up and was about to leave.
Si Guangxu's heavy and weak voice came from behind, "Without my help, do you think you can hide this from the world? Xiaochen, don't be naive!"
Si Mochen narrowed his eyes and paused. He turned back suddenly, looking at Si Guangxu with a sinister look of contempt, "What do you mean?"
Si Guangxu stood there, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Do you think that as long as you keep your marriage to her secret, put her name on the house, and keep a proper distance from her, you can hide it from the old man's sight? No, if I hadn't secretly helped you get rid of those spies, Xia Zhichu would have been exposed long ago."
"You're investigating us?"
Si Mochen's eyes became even colder, as if they were filled with thick ink.
Si Guangxu laughed sarcastically, "Even the most impenetrable wall has cracks. Besides, you're already living with her and you've even arranged for her to join Peak Group. It's only a matter of time before someone finds out."
Upon hearing this, Si Mochen slowly clenched his fingers into a fist, and his handsome face became even more gloomy and terrifying.
He stared at the father coldly, his face devoid of any emotion, and his voice was even more dull, "What do you want to do?"
When Si Guangxu heard his question, he smiled bitterly.
"I just want to make it up to you, so no matter what you do, I will help you behind the scenes. As for the woman you like, just go after her boldly. I can't give your mother a happy family, but I hope you can get what you want and be with the woman you love."
Si Guangxu walked over, raised his hand and placed it on Si Mochen's shoulder, patting him gently.
Obviously, the father and son are of similar height, but at this moment Si Guangxu is not as imposing as Si Mochen. After a deep sigh, Si Guangxu left with heavy steps.
Si Mochen stood there for a long time, until he no longer saw Si Guangxu, and then he came to his senses.
Those gloomy eyes remained as dark as if they were covered in thick ink. Finally, he laughed at himself and left with her.
Xia Zhichu didn't know that the president was her husband. When she received the "come on" message from him, she was extremely excited all morning.
But she did not forget what she had said, which was to submit her work again, so after lunch, she began to conceive new design concepts.
I was so busy that I forgot about time until Lily suddenly rushed in and shouted, "Breaking news, the new manager will be here this afternoon. I heard that he was promoted by an employee from our design department."
When the news came out, everyone gathered together to gossip.
Someone asked if Xia Zhichu was going to be their new leader, but Lily shook her head with certainty.
"That's good. If Xia Zhichu takes the position, I won't accept it."
Even if he has a backer, he is just a newcomer. Why should he lead them?
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They all said that Peak Group was the fairest in promoting talents, and it seemed that this was true.
While everyone was talking, Yan Sen appeared at the door.
Seeing that everyone's work attitude was slack, he frowned and coughed twice, and then everyone dispersed and returned to their positions.
Yan Sen walked in, looked around calmly, and then spoke, "Manager Lan has been fired. Is this like a case of the mouse becoming king when there is no tiger in the mountain?"
