28: Chapter 28 This is the Chairman’s Intention

“President Mu, Director Han ca to the office early this morning.

I initially wanted to set him up in the reception room, but he insisted on waiting in the office for you.

What do you think?”

Near nine in the morning at the Moongaze Building twenty-sixth floor elevator entrance, Shen Xuan, who had been waiting there, quickly approached Mu Shanshan as she exited the elevator and spoke.

“Did he say anything?”

Dressed in a plain white business suit, Mu Shanshan, with a frosty expression, leisurely walked towards her own office.

There are several directors on the board of Mu Group, but there is only one surnad Han—that is Han Qiming’s father, Han Zhenhai, who was knocked unconscious by Lin Fei at the General Affairs Departnt.

His son was barely unconscious when the father showed up, his intent was clear—it was obviously an accusation.

“After Director Han arrived at the company, he only said that he wanted to wait in the office for you; he didn’t say anything else.”

Shen Xuan didn’t presumptuously add “He must be here to seek justice for his son” because with Mu Shanshan’s intelligence, such a straightforward matter was not hard to guess.

Having served as Mu Shanshan’s secretary for more than a day or two, Shen Xuan naturally wouldn’t commit a redundant act.

Mu Shanshan didn’t say anything further but her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed unintentionally.

Earlier at ho, Mu Shanshan had already predicted that Han Zhenhai would co to the office to discuss matters; she just didn’t expect him to co so quickly.

Every ti she thought of the earlier discussion about Han Qiming at ho with Lin Fei, Lin Fei’s utterly uncooperative deanor annoyed her no end.

“Indeed Han Qiming did so wrong things, but he is after all Han Zhenhai’s son, and Han Zhenhai is also our company’s shareholder.

By hitting Han Qiming, you embarrassed the Han Family.

Find a ti to apologize to Han Qiming as a way to give Han Zhenhai a way out; let’s consider the matter settled!”

Mu Shanshan thought this solution was already giving Lin Fei face.

After all, Lin Fei had hit soone publicly at the company—if it were soone else, Mu Shanshan would have fired them long ago.

In a more serious case, she might have even called the police.

However, as soon as Mu Shanshan finished speaking, she was t with a ruthless scolding from Lin Fei.

“Ask

to apologize to Han Qiming, Mu Shanshan, are you out of your mind?” Lin Fei’s words left Mu Shanshan stunned, and his subsequent words completely dumbfounded her.

“I spared him being crippled right there, was already saving face for his old man.

You ask

to apologize to Han Qiming, why not ask Han Qiming to apologize to Qin Xiaoyu first?!

His Han Family’s face is face, but Qin Xiaoyu’s isn’t?

Qin Xiaoyu might just be a secretary, but she’s still an employee of Mu Group.

Why don’t you, the president, consider her feelings as well?

Just because Han Qiming has a shareholder father?!

Bullshit!”

After roaring at Mu Shanshan, Lin Fei didn’t even glance at her as he left the mansion without turning back.

“Lin Fei, you bastard!”

After Lin Fei left, Mu Shanshan stood in the living room alone for more than twenty minutes, until finally, Aunt Lan woke her up.

Newly alert, Mu Shanshan felt both anger and grievance, but with Lin Fei already gone, she could only suppress her raging emotions deep inside.

After being brutally scolded by Lin Fei, Mu Shanshan had no more appetite for breakfast; disregarding Aunt Lan’s persuasion, she drove straight to the company.

…

“President Mu, you really gave

quite the surprise.”

After Mu Shanshan entered her office, an elderly man in his sixties seated in the reception area’s sofa spoke up somberly.

“Oh, so does that an Director Han’s visit is specifically to thank ?”

With a frustration fueled by the tirade she endured from Lin Fei, Mu Shanshan wasn’t in the mood for polite conversation.

Although Mu Shanshan could be easily infuriated by Lin Fei, it didn’t an she wasn’t articulate.

In fact, she was quite eloquent, especially in confrontational situations.

The reason Mu Shanshan often found herself speechless around Lin Fei was largely due to Lin Fei’s shaless and rogue way of talking, plain and simple—his words didn’t follow any conventional rules.

Mu Shanshan, raised with good upbringing and educated abroad, was a high-caliber talent who could hardly stand Lin Fei’s foul language.

Although the business world also had its share of ruthless capitalists, everyone still paid attention to their public image.

In formal business confrontations, Mu Shanshan never experienced stage fright, and it was very rare for her to be at a disadvantage.

Just like now, facing Han Zhenhai, who had co to criticize her, Shanshan shut him up with a single sentence.

It was clear to anyone that Han Zhenhai had malicious intentions, yet Shanshan cleverly countered him using his own words, rendering most of his preditated argunts useless.

Han Zhenhai clearly hadn’t expected Shanshan to open with such a remark, and his expression darkened instantly.

He took a deep breath and said with a stern voice, “Ms.

Mu is joking, my son was maliciously attacked at the company and is currently lying in the hospital.

As a father, what joy could I possibly have, Ms.

Mu must not be making fun of !”

“Mr.

Han, how could you say that?

You are Shanshan’s elder, and by all rights, Shanshan should respect you.

Shanshan would never dare to make fun of you.”

Shanshan consciously lowered her stance sowhat, giving Han Zhenhai enough respect.

After all, Han Zhenhai had contributed to the growth of the Mu Group, and his age spoke for itself.

Even though Shanshan internally disliked the older generation of directors, led by Han Zhenhai, for relying on their seniority, she still maintained the necessary courtesies on the surface.

Han Zhenhai’s tone softened slightly, “I assu Ms.

Mu is well aware of my purpose here.

Let’s cut to the chase, the General Affairs Departnt employee who physically assaulted Qiming must be dismissed!

Keeping such a person in the company is a desecration of our rules and regulations.

The HR departnt is really failing to do its job, such a person should never have been employed in the first place!”

Han Zhenhai righteously accused Lin Fei of disregarding the company’s rules and regulations, without ntioning Han Qiming’s unauthorized entry into the General Affairs Departnt and his pushing Qin Xiaoyu.

If it weren’t for the detailed account Shanshan heard from Ling Weiwei, Han Zhenhai’s deception might have actually worked.

“This matter has nothing to do with the HR departnt, it’s…”

“How can you say it’s unrelated?

The HR departnt is responsible for all personnel decisions within the company.

To have employed soone with such poor manners shows a severe negligence of duty on their part.

I think it’s necessary to call a board eting and reevaluate the HR departnt.”

Han Zhenhai, impeccably grood and with a deep gaze, spoke with an air of absolute authority.

However, Shanshan was clearly not intimidated by his presence; her eyebrows slightly furrowed as she said coolly, “Hiring Lin Fei was my personal decision, it has nothing to do with the HR departnt.

If Director Han has any complaints about the HR departnt, he can bring them up during the next board eting.

However, I must remind Director Han that I have been very satisfied with the work of the HR departnt in recent months.”

Attitudes aside, Shanshan would not tolerate Han Zhenhai’s random criticisms of the HR departnt, regardless of his age.

Han Zhenhai’s deanor faltered, appearing sowhat bewildered.

Formally, Shanshan was fully in control of only the HR and General Affairs Departnts within the Mu Group.

Nearly half of the departnts, such as the PR Departnt, Security Departnt, and Marketing Departnt, were covertly controlled by Han Zhenhai and other board mbers through various ans after Mu Hong stepped down from the frontline.

In the world of business, temptations are strong, and no one finds an abundance of money objectionable, let alone in a large conglorate like Mu Group.

When Mu Hong was in charge, no one dared any foul play given Mu Hong’s capabilities and influence.

After Shanshan succeeded Mu Hong as the president of Mu Group, directors like Han Zhenhai began secretly conspiring to oust her and install one of their own in the president’s seat.

Despite these sches, Shanshan was undeniably competent.

Since she took over Mu Group, the company’s performance had soared, leaving Han Zhenhai and others with little excuse to challenge her.

Now, Han Zhenhai was seizing the incident of Lin Fei assaulting Han Qiming as a pretext to target the HR departnt loyal to Shanshan, clearly after much consideration.

Unfortunately for him, he hadn’t anticipated that Lin Fei hadn’t been hired through HR but was a direct hire through Shanshan backdoor.

Han Zhenhai, an old fox, quickly recovered his composure and looked straight at Shanshan, “Does Ms.

Mu an to say that Lin Fei was hired without going through HR’s evaluation?”

Shanshan didn’t speak but nodded.

This left Han Zhenhai even more uncertain.

After Shanshan took over as president of Mu Group, she had vigorously restructured the HR departnt, virtually eliminating any backdoor hires.

Han Qiming, Han Zhenhai’s son, was a pri example.

Initially, Han Zhenhai even personally pleaded with Shanshan to get Han Qiming into the company but was rejected by Shanshan.

Now, Shanshan personally facilitated soone’s backdoor entry into the company.

If Shanshan hadn’t confird it herself, Han Zhenhai would never have believed that Lin Fei could bypass HR through Shanshan, the stern president.

Despite his surprise, Han Zhenhai would not miss this opportunity to challenge Shanshan.

He had initially targeted the HR departnt to add trouble for Shanshan, and now that he had the chance to confront her directly, how could Han Zhenhai let it slide.

“Ms.

Mu, if I rember correctly, you personally stated at the board eting that you would absolutely not tolerate anyone entering the company through any ans without HR’s evaluation.

Yet now, Ms.

Mu, you’re telling

that hiring Lin Fei was your personal idea.

I hope Ms.

Mu can provide a reasonable explanation; otherwise, I fear I may have trouble explaining this to the other directors.”

Shanshan slightly lifted her head and calmly took a sip of her coffee before coolly responding, “This was the chairman’s decision.

If Director Han wishes to hear an explanation, he should speak to the chairman.”

The chairman Shanshan ntioned was naturally Mu Hong, Lin Fei’s new father-in-law.

Although Mu Hong had stepped back, he had not resigned as the chairman of the Mu Group.

A significant reason why Han Zhenhai and others had refrained from directly confronting Shanshan was the presence of Mu Hong as the chairman.
