Comrcial Managent.
Song Zhizhi returned to her post.
Many people looked at her with sowhat peculiar glimrs.
Song Zhizhi pretended not to notice.
The mont she opened the door to her office, she faltered.
Qin Jingxiang was sitting in her office chair.
At that mont, Qin Jingxiang turned to Song Zhizhi with a smile, "Miss Song, you’re here?"
"I didn’t expect you too, Miss Qin."
"So many things have happened in Comrcial Managent during this period. My father asked to help him support the whole organization, so I had no choice but to co to work. I thought you would take so ti off due to your father’s death, Miss Song. I didn’t expect you to be so devoted to your work. When I arrived, the HR departnt hadn’t arranged my office yet, so they asked to temporarily use your office. I believe Miss Song wouldn’t mind."
"Not at all." Song Zhizhi smiled, "Resources should be used efficiently. But now that I’m back, I wonder if Miss Qin... maybe ought to move?"
"Of course. I’ll call HR and ask them to clear the office for Miss Song."
Talking the talk, Qin Jingxiang then made a phone call.
As soon as they received the notification on the phone, they hurried over.
One of the two HR staff mbers, a supervisor, addressed Qin Jingxiang very politely, "Miss Qin, are you moving your office?"
"Yes, as you can see, I’m sitting in Song Zhizhi’s office. Now that she’s back, I obviously need to move. Otherwise, people may think I stole her office, which would be hard for to explain."
"We have planned a new office, located on the far right of this floor. Personally, I think, since Miss Qin’s belongings are all here, it’s too much trouble to move them, so it would be better for Manager Song to move to the new office directly." the director suggested respectfully.
Song Zhizhi chuckled.
The only vacant office on this floor was a previously used storeroom. The space was far from spacious and most importantly, it had no windows and was completely without ventilation.
"No need for that, I’ll move." As Song Zhizhi didn’t say a word, Qin Jingxiang quickly acted the good guy, "I couldn’t possibly put Miss Song through such trouble."
"I believe Manager Song would never be so petty. Manager Song has always been generous." The director imdiately played along with Qin Jingxiang.
Song Zhizhi said, "I don’t mind, after all, where one works doesn’t affect the nature of the job."
"I knew Manager Song wouldn’t mind." The director imdiately chid in.
Qin Jingxiang looked quite triumphant.
Song Zhizhi then added, "I just fear that if Miss Qin takes up my office, it’s not an ideal look to the public. Not only for you, but also for your father. Just think about it - My father has just passed away, and Chief Qin is looking to drive out swiftly. How does that look to the outsiders? Doesn’t it seem as an attempt to dominate? Chief Qin openly pledged support for my father in front of all the dia, yet turned his face so quickly..."
Song Zhizhi paused deliberately.
Qin Jingxiang looked furious.
"Miss Qin, you are incredibly intelligent and extraordinarily talented. Comrcial Managent is fortunate to have soone like you. But Miss Qin, work is not just about ability but also about how one gets along with people. I hope you can adapt to Comrcial Managent’s work culture. You should avoid unnecessary trouble."
After Song Zhizhi finished,
She turned to the HR staff, "If you think it’s best for to move now, then help clear the place."
The director dared not act rashly.
He turned to look at Qin Jingxiang.
After hesitating for half a second, Qin Jingxiang said, "Given how bluntly Miss Song has put it, if I continue to occupy your space, I would really be too presumptuous. Start helping pack up my things, I’m moving."
"Miss Qin..."
"Don’t you understand?" Qin Jingxiang’s voice dropped.
The HR staff quickly began to pack Qin Jingxiang’s belongings.
Soon,
The two had packed up Qin Jingxiang’s belongings and held them.
Qin Jingxiang led the two away.
She left a single sentence, "Song Zhizhi, take care of yourself."
Song Zhizhi simply watched Qin Jingxiang’s departing figure.
Take care of myself?!
Qin Jingxiang is determined to deal with her.
She had been waiting quietly, holding her ground, hoping to gain from the conflict. Finally, the mont arrived!
She sat in her office chair, pondering a few things.
At the mont, the surface of Comrcial Managent is still calm, but in fact, everyone is terrified inside.
From the mont Qian Guanshu encountered his incident, everyone began to feel uneasy. Then Ye Wenhan ran into trouble not long after. Later, Song Shan faced trouble too. At this mont, Comrcial Managent was like loose sand. It would be effortless for the official family to take over Comrcial Managent now, but the problem is, there are many conflicts within the official family, too many to manage.
According to internal rumors, Jun Cheng, the incumbent Dean of the official family, is in poor health, with ten full-ti doctors taking care of him. The details of his condition are uncertain but once such rumors surface, whether they are true or not, they will definitely trigger an internal conflict. After all, the position as successor of the Dean of the official family has always been eyed greedily!
So, the official family should have no ti to care about Comrcial Managent at this mont — the struggle over succession is the most pressing issue right now!
Song Zhizhi thought about this for a while.
She suddenly left her office and went straight to Qin Wenguo’s office.
She entered after knocking on his door.
Qin Wenguo was a little surprised to see Song Zhizhi, but then he put on a kind smile, "Zhizhi, your father just passed away, shouldn’t you take a break instead of coming to work?"
"Thank you for your concern, Chief Qin, I am feeling much more settled now. Also, I have a very clear understanding of why my father ended up this way, I was psychologically prepared for this." Song Zhizhi replied, taking a seat across from Qin Wenguo.
Qin Wenguo frowned.
This sudden show of goodwill from Song Zhizhi was certainly hiding so kind of sche.
Song Zhizhi said, "Chief Qin, till now, I have nothing more to hide. My father was too aggressive. I had advised him before not to stick his neck out and to avoid being a target during this period, but he was too eager for quick success. I had expected this outco to be honest. I have great respect for you, Chief Qin, for being able to remain so stable."
"Zhizhi, what are you trying to say?" Qin Wenguo pretended not to understand.
"Chief Qin surely understands what I’m saying. And I’m saying this only to express that I’m now a helpless person. With my father’s death, those who supported him would instantly collapse and, not unexpectedly, I am no exception. I’m just expressing my decision to support you. I hope to be given a significant role in the future."
"Zhizhi, your abilities are exceptional and everyone at Comrcial Managent acknowledges your talent. Since you are talented, there’s no reason why I shouldn’t value you."
"Zhizhi thanks Chief Qin for having here."
"It’s my pleasure, you’re being too polite."
"Thanks, Chief Qin. I won’t take up any more of your ti."
"Hmm."
Song Zhizhi left.
Qin Wenguo watched Song Zhizhi’s retreating figure, his face a bit grim.
What the hell is this Song Zhizhi up to?!
Could she really know about the impending situation within Comrcial Managent and readily switch sides? Song Zhizhi is certainly too forthright!
He picked up the phone, "Jingxiang, can you co to dad’s office?"
He couldn’t gauge this, so he decided to consult his daughter.
Qin Jingxiang entered, "Dad, what’s up?"
"Song Zhizhi just ca and tried to suck up to on her own initiative. I really can’t trust this woman." Qin Wenguo spoke bluntly.
Song Zhizhi took the initiative to suck up to him?!
Qin Jingxiang also didn’t know what trick this woman was now trying to pull!
She asked, "How were you planning to deal with Song Zhizhi?"
"Of course, drive her out of the Comrcial Managent. That woman is too capable, if not mine, keeping her will only bring trouble."
"Then don’t believe her bullshit." Qin Jingxiang was straightforward.
"Then how should I deal with her now?"
"Song Zhizhi is likely not an ordinary person. Even after Qian Guanshu and Ye Wenhan used so many tricks, they couldn’t trap her. It’s not going to be easy for us either. Moreover, Song Zhizhi has already taken the initiative to please us, clearly because she’s afraid we’ll kick her out! Since she doesn’t wield much power now and doesn’t pose a threat to us, we might as well fake obedience to Song Zhizhi for the ti being. It will make her think we’ve been deceived. Once this critical period is over, and everything within the official family is stabilized, and we stand firm, we can deal with Song Zhizhi."
"Has the struggle within the official family begun?"
"Should’ve, as expected. Dad, the official family don’t have ti to care about us right now, they’re busy with their own inheritance disputes. We shouldn’t bother them at this mont, especially not take sides, as nobody knows who’s going to co out on top. Once the situation stabilizes, we’ll extend an olive branch."
"The official family will definitely try to reclaim the administration rights to Comrcial Managent."
"Dad, I’ve warned you many tis, the administrative rights of Comrcial Managent are not destined to fall into our hands. Comrcial Managent can no longer be an independent administrative agency like before. The official family won’t let the national treasury fall into others’ hands, It’s against the course of history. Whoever has held absolute control over finances for such a long ti, Yanshang Country has reached its limit already! Dad, don’t be too optimistic, if we can secure so power after the turmoil and keep our family safe, not end up like the other chiefs who either die or end up in jail, we should already feel extraordinary. Dad, don’t be greedy, chasing power we can’t get. The fate of the three previous chiefs serve as a warning!"
Qin Wenguo nodded.
He trusts his daughter.
The downfall of three successive chiefs indeed made him sowhat apprehensive. If it weren’t for his daughter’s constant reminders, he might have followed in their footsteps.
He said, "Alright, Dad will listen to your arrangent."
"Hmm." Qin Jingxiang nodded.
A cruel smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
They may not want Comrcial Managent, but she would never let Song Zhizhi survive!
Not just because of power, most importantly, Ji Baijian.
For Ji Baijian, she would go all out to kill Song Zhizhi!
...
Song Zhizhi returned to her office.
She was very clear, how could Qin Wenguo possibly retain her?
She was rely stating her stance first, to make them think she’s currently seeking self-preservation, and her seeking self-preservation suggested she no longer held any power and couldn’t pose a threat to them. At least for now, they won’t make a move against her. Even if they were just putting on a show, they would temporarily comply with her. This way, she could maintain her position in Comrcial Managent and accomplish many things.
Now, in this critical period, a single misstep could lead to a cascade of errors.
She had to tread carefully, as if walking on thin ice.
...
Yanshang Country.
Although it seed prosperous and peaceful, a storm was brewing beneath this seeming tranquility.
Ji Baijian was standing in Sky Garden.
He was smoking, and taking one cigarette after another frantically.
He extinguished the last cigarette butt.
Picked up the phone that had been ringing repeatedly and answered, "Jun Mingyu."
"My father wants to see you."
"Alright." Ji Baijian agreed readily.
"I’ll send soone to pick you up. I hope you won’t bring any weapons. I can guarantee your absolute safety."
"Don’t worry, since I’ve chosen to et your father, I know what I should do. I won’t put you in a difficult position."
"Thank you."
After hanging up, Ji Baijian’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Everything was about to set off.
In the anti.
Jun Minghan said to Leng Wanqing with utmost respect, "I heard that father wants to see Ji Baijian alone."
Leng Wanqing sneered.
"Then you arrange for to et Song Zhizhi."
"Mom, do you want to see her yourself?"
"Isn’t Song Zhizhi the one who can restrain Ji Baijian? After all that we’ve done, wasn’t it to provoke a feud between Song Zhizhi and Ji Baijian?!" Leng Wanqing’s smile was especially ruthless, "I want Jun Yu to understand that he should not dream of rebelling. He should be grateful for the position I have provided him, not colluding with his illegitimate son to fight against ! I’ll make it clear where our difference lies! He’s so optimistic about the talent, without losing a bit, I’ll make sure he dies an ugly death."
