Feeling a chill seep into her body, Qiao Xue felt her fatigue instantly disappear.
Qiao Xue suddenly thought Lin Chen wasn't bad. He had excellent dical skills, outstanding cooking, and a marvelous massage technique.
"Damn it, Qiao Xue, what are you thinking? Have you really been won over by this guy's massage skills? Sha on you, the man you want should be a towering hero, not so loser who uses tricks to please girls." Qiao Xue thought to herself.
Lin Chen naturally didn't know what was on Qiao Xue's mind, but pressing on her neck, the smooth feeling made his mind wander a bit.
After massaging for over ten minutes, Qiao Xue felt more comfortable than if she'd slept all night.
"Thank you, I can give you a week off, but rember our agreent." Qiao Xue said calmly.
"Don't worry, isn't it just doubling the inco by the end of the month? No big deal." Lin Chen made an OK gesture.
"Good, then I'll wait for your good news!" Qiao Xue looked at Lin Chen aningfully before heading towards the stairs.
Returning to his room, Lin Chen directly dialed Long Lao's number.
"Lin Chen, you still rember this old man, huh? It's been a while since you contacted ." Long Lao complained.
"Haven't I been working for you all this ti? You don't pay , how am I supposed to afford plane tickets?" Lin Chen laughed.
"Stop joking, you're the chairman of a Fortune 500 company, short on airfare?" Long Lao snorted.
Lin Chen chuckled, "I'm calling to report on work—Wu Xiong, the leader of the West District's Long Group, has issues."
Long Lao's eyes narrowed: "I've also received many reports about Wu Xiong. He's got so backing, so we dared not touch him. Do you have evidence?"
Lin Chen shook his head, "No evidence yet, but I believe I'll soon expose his true colors. I just need your cooperation."
"Alright, how do you want
to cooperate?" Long Lao asked solemnly.
Lin Chen smiled, "Lure the snake out of the hole!"
Hearing Lin Chen's plan, Long Lao laughed heartily and nodded, "You sly kid. I'll leave this to you. I hate traitors the most. Once evidence is solid, I'll fully support you."
The next morning, Lin Chen first went to the company.
"Sorry for using your car all day yesterday, but it's fully refueled now." Lin Chen said cheerfully to Ai Ying.
"The tank is full, but what about these fines?" Ai Ying snorted, pulling out a bunch of tickets.
Lin Chen smiled bitterly, clearly the result of being caught speeding with a truck yesterday.
"Deduct it from my salary." Lin Chen said sowhat embarrassed.
"Hmph, I heard from President Qiao that you took a week off. It's impressive—taking a long leave on the first day of work." Ai Ying snorted.
Lin Chen grinned awkwardly, "Don't worry, even if I'm not here, I won't lag behind in my work."
"Really? I don't see any progress on your part right now." Ai Ying snorted again.
"Xingchen Group has a business conference coming up. Our company will be led by you, right?" Lin Chen smiled.
"Yes, but why would a large company like Xingchen Group cooperate with us? We're just going to gain experience." Ai Ying sighed.
"Not necessarily. People must have dreams; what if they co true!" Lin Chen chuckled.
"That's impossible. I've heard Xingchen Group already has a preliminary agreent with Qin's Group. This conference is just a formality." Ai Ying sighed again.
Lin Chen took out a piece of paper, wrote a note, then sealed it in an envelope, and handed it to Ai Ying, "Show this note to the person in charge of the conference, maybe there'll be a surprise."
Ai Ying took the note and was about to open it when Lin Chen said mysteriously, "You can't look at this casually, or it won't work."
"Hmph, you think you're Zhuge Liang or sothing?" Ai Ying rolled her eyes at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen laughed, "Miss Ai, I'm leaving, don't miss . Oh, and take care of Qingqing while I'm away."
Ai Ying looked at the envelope in her hand, thought for a mont, but didn't open it, carefully placing it in her bag instead.
Lin Chen left the company, and Xin Xiaoqi was already waiting downstairs in her car.
"Let's go, I'm going to avenge you," Lin Chen laughed.
"Lin Chen, Wu Xiong has run the Long Group for many years. Most pivotal positions are filled by his close allies, making it hard to deal with him," Xin Xiaoqi said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, in front of , whether he's a tiger, he'll have to lie down, or a dragon, he'll have to coil up." Lin Chen sneered.
Xin Xiaoqi drove towards the outskirts of the city to a military camp.
This camp looked no different from a regular unit but was heavily guarded. After passing several checkpoints, the car stopped in front of an office building.
Lin Chen followed Xin Xiaoqi directly to the conference room.
Every morning, the Long Group held etings attended by the heads of all departnts.
Seeing Lin Chen arrive unannounced, Wu Xiong frowned, "Consultant Lin, we're in a eting. If you have matters to discuss, please wait in the office."
Lin Chen sneered, "Sorry, I'm not here for a visit, I'm here to take over your position."
"What did you say?" Wu Xiong's expression changed.
At this ti, a young man with a scar on his face below Wu Xiong snorted, "Kid, who do you think you are? In West District, no one can replace Captain Wu."
Lin Chen smiled calmly, "Don't worry, your Captain's position remains. It's just changing from Captain to Vice Captain."
"I was appointed by the higher-ups. On what grounds do you say you can replace ?" Wu Xiong snorted.
Lin Chen crossed his legs and sat on a chair calmly, "Don't rush, the appointnt will soon arrive."
Just then, a ssenger walked in and saluted Wu Xiong, "Captain Wu, the higher-ups sent a telegram."
Wu Xiong took the telegram, glanced at it, and his face changed slightly. The contents stated that Lin Chen was temporarily appointed to act as the captain of the West District's Long Group, while he remained at his rank but was now vice captain and would follow Lin Chen's leadership.
"Fine, fine, Captain Lin, please." Wu Xiong gritted his teeth and vacated the captain's chair.
Lin Chen smiled slightly as he sat down, his gaze sweeping over everyone. Their eyes were filled with dissatisfaction, evidently not convinced by this young new captain.
"Folks, I know you're all wondering why the higher-ups want
as the acting captain. Frankly, I don't want this tough role either. The previous incident still has no leads. I'm actually here to take the fall for your Captain, Wu, but with the order from above, I have no choice but to shoulder it. I hope for your cooperation." Lin Chen said calmly.
The conference room was silent, with no applause or any response. The heads of departnts seed unimpressed by the young new captain.
