Chapter 1053: Chapter 986 A Snowflake
Duanda Group.
The 36-story self-owned office building’s blue glass curtain walls seed to hang with halos under the sunlight.
There’s also a vast and open mini-square in front of the building, a resource shared by the entire park, but since Duanda was the developer, the best site was reserved for themselves.
Noon.
The doors of the office building opened simultaneously, and groups of social elites burst out like jubilant sheep from multi-layered luxurious pens, surging towards the surrounding welfare area to spend the inco they have yet to receive today.
So big spenders, those who like to treat others to als, and those dosticated office workers would even take out their earnings, sheared off over several days, to warmly entertain others.
Chen Xiangrong was such an average office worker.
Similar to many ordinary employees from big companies these years, Chen Xiangrong ca from an ordinary key high school, achieved an ordinary high score among the top 50 in his grade, graduated from an ordinary 985 university, then pursued a master’s degree under an ordinary supervisor, completed two ordinary projects during school, rejected the plain invitation from his supervisor, and after an ordinary scatter-shot resu submission and a total of five rounds of interviews, finally beca an ordinary employee at Duanda Group.
After four years of ordinary 996 work schedule, Chen Xiangrong had beco an ordinary supervisor in his departnt, responsible for all the ordinary miscellaneous tasks, including those urgent ordinary ones.
Chen Xiangrong was fairly satisfied with such an ordinary life, even though there were many idiots among the company’s colleagues, leaders, departntal regulations, and strategic strategies.
But they paid their salaries like idiots, and Chen Xiangrong could accept this enveloping idiotic life.
Chen Xiangrong bought so food at a convenience store, found a bench with a beautiful view, and slowly consud his food.
The sounds of people joking and fooling around ca from beside him.
Chen Xiangrong looked and saw that it was three idiot male managers from the sa floor as him, frolicking with their three busty female subordinates they had recruited.
Chen Xiangrong curled his lips and was too lazy to look any further.
These three male managers had been warned once after being reported twice for sexual harassnt, and would be adjusted and sent to a subsidiary if it happened again, just like previous managers.
By then, they would naturally have nothing to do with Chen Xiangrong anymore.
Of course, the group might send another three similar idiot managers and recruit subordinates again according to their personal tastes, and at least three more rounds would follow…
Chen Xiangrong shook his head. These were none of his business; after all, the next departnt hardly did any work and usually had little interaction with him. If he ever did encounter them, he would just have to bear the pressure.
Yikes!
A girl’s exclamation ca from behind.
Chen Xiangrong helplessly shook his head, thinking, do these people have no patience at all? They’re already exploiting their power to suppress the subordinates, must they also force this sort of behavior?
Chen Xiangrong, while chewing on his sandwich, reluctantly turned to look.
He saw the three managers… stacking themselves like a totem pole?
Chen Xiangrong couldn’t help but get up to look closely, not to ntion why these perverts had suddenly beco so deranged, where did the extra people participating in the totem pole stacking co from?
“Police!” A deep voice rose by his ear, saying, “Let see your ID, please.”
“Huh?” Chen Xiangrong stood up: “What’s going on?”
“ID card. Thank you for your cooperation.” The policeman saluted politely, but there was no room for any discount in his demand, even looking at Chen Xiangrong with a skeptical eye.
“I also don’t have my ID card on .” Chen Xiangrong paused for a mont, then asked, “What did they do?”
“Wait a mont, I’ll perform a facial recognition.” The policeman took a picture of Chen Xiangrong and his personal information popped up in the software.
After sizing up Chen Xiangrong, the policeman continued, “Alright, you’re free to go. Please leave quickly and do not discuss or publish any photos and videos of what you’ve seen. Our case is still under investigation; any action on your part that affects the investigation will be pursued by the police.”
“Got it, I didn’t take any photos anyway.” Chen Xiangrong murmured and walked away.
Soon, three new female colleagues rushed up to him, asking about his situation with lingering fear.
Chen Xiangrong himself was clueless and could only shake his head, saying, “You go back and report to your departnt’s leadership.”
“Should we look for a lawyer?”
“Leadership can’t handle the police, can they?”
“They’re arresting people right at the entrance of Duanda?”
The shock was stronger for the three female colleagues who witnessed the managers being arrested from a very close distance. Consequently, their emotional reactions were more intense.
Chen Xiangrong didn’t say a word, even feeling a bit gleefully happy inside.
Three scumbag managers, wandering around the building like loafers, always passing the buck when it ca to work, getting arrested served them right!
Returning to the office building of Duanda, it was clear that so people’s expressions were abnormal.
Seeing this, Chen Xiangrong felt a bit puzzled, advising the three female colleagues to go upstairs by themselves, while he stood and waited. Soon, he saw a sowhat familiar colleague from another departnt approaching.
“Lao Wang, did you hear soone got arrested?” Chen Xiangrong stepped forward to share his news first.
“How could I not know, they were arrested right in front of .” Lao Wang seed to have a strong desire to offload, looking around before whispering, “That manager of mine, you rember him, right? Calling him a nutcase is putting it lightly. Soone else knocked him straight down, his head hitting the ground with a thud.”
“Your manager was arrested too?” Chen Xiangrong was astonished.
“Too? Your manager was arrested as well?” Lao Wang was astonished.
Chen Xiangrong slowly shook his head and described what he had just witnessed. The two exchanged a glance and hurried to the elevator.
Today’s events seed far from trivial.
In the elevator, it was filled with Duanda personnel displaying various expressions, with many of them frantically texting on WeChat.
Chen Xiangrong also raised an eyebrow and quickly checked his work group chats.
Normally, during lunch break, he deliberately avoided checking the group ssages to not let his rare rest ti be commandeered by superiors.
But today’s situation was special. As soon as Chen Xiangrong opened WeChat, he saw several privately sent ssages.
A few photos and screenshots indicated that arrests were not uncommon.
Chen Xiangrong couldn’t help but shiver.
How many people were arrested?
Looking at the main chat group, soone wrote: “The office building is allowing entrance but not exit, seems like sothing big is happening.”
Chen Xiangrong shrank his neck and recalled the scene upon entering. The security guard at the door seed very unfamiliar.
ssages never stopped flooding the group chat:
“Director Wang has been taken away.”
“The Nanping construction site is said to be sealed off.”
“That head of finance is fierce, swinging a big sword back and forth, several policen didn’t dare to get close, the sound of docunts being shredded inside.”
“How many docunts were shredded?”
“Not many I guess, two cops went up with chairs, broke his head.”
Chen Xiangrong was engrossed in the ssages when suddenly his desk phone rang.
This was an internal company line. Chen Xiangrong shuddered and quickly answered with a low voice, “Hello…”
“Chen Xiangrong? This is Li Wannian. Co to my office.” The manager identified himself and then hung up the phone.
Chen Xiangrong entered the manager’s office full of trepidation.
As the supervisor at Little Karami’s level, Chen Xiangrong rarely had contact with the manager on normal days.
Li Wannian sized up Chen Xiangrong from head to toe then said after a mont: “Starting today, you are in charge of all work in the Marketing Division 3.”
“Ah? Why?”
“Why? The manager and deputy manager of Division 3 have been arrested; you’re the highest-ranking person left. Do well, and if the company doesn’t go under, you’ll be the manager in the future!” Li Wannian waved his hand in irritation, too tired to even engage in the usual PUA tactics.
