Chapter 1420: Thirty Years East of the River
The CEO whom these employees often criticized finally seems to have shown some change; even Deputy CEO Chang Jingshu feels happy about it. These employees used to badmouth the CEO in private and held immense hostility toward him.
But unexpectedly, because of the Chairman of the Headquarters today, these employees have somewhat changed their opinion of the CEO. It’s indeed because of the CEO’s arrival at this company that everyone’s salary has been able to double.
Moreover, the salaries can now be paid on time. The previous CEOs never thought about how to develop the company; they only cared about splurging, so there were always salary deficits, and sometimes wages wouldn’t be paid for two to three months, which had become a common occurrence.
So, all these changes at the branch are thanks to the CEO’s arrival here; otherwise, everyone wouldn’t be able to enjoy this kind of life.
Listening to these employees sincerely praising Xu Ke, Su Zining felt as if he had swallowed something vile. Weren’t the employees at this branch supposed to strongly dislike Xu Ke?
Why today do they seem like hired extras? This is simply outrageous.
And he was also thinking of the employees at the branch, yet they show no gratitude at all, even speaking on behalf of Xu Ke. What exactly is wrong with these people? Could it be that Xu Ke’s anime is actually good?
"Thirty years on the East Bank, thirty years on the West Bank; do not bully the poor young man. Let’s see in a few years. No matter what, I am the rightful fiancé of Xiao Keyi. Even if you have a status, so what? You are still not recognized. You’re just an employee of the Xiao Group, while I will eventually work at Headquarters. When that time comes, I hope you can laughingly say this again."
After saying this, as if he had already become Xiao Zhen’s son-in-law and was working at Headquarters, Su Zining couldn’t help but laugh at the thought of this scenario.
As long as he turns the tables, it’s certain that Xu Ke won’t have any good opportunities in the future. Right now, isn’t Xiao Zhen just acknowledging Xu Ke’s presence because it’s awkward for him? There’s no rush anyway; Xiao Zhen only considers him as his son-in-law.
Currently, what matters most to him is not leaving a good impression on Xiao Zhen or Xiao Keyi, but utterly bringing down Xu Ke. As long as he lets Xiao Zhen and Xiao Keyi see Xu Ke’s flaws, they will definitely steer clear of him. At this thought, Su Zining felt weighed down by his task.
"Rest assured, whether in 30 years or 300 years, I will always laugh more joyfully than you, and I will surely wait for you. I hope that you can take the position at the Headquarters in the future. I imagine you, a little manager in a construction materials company, don’t have any capability. Looking at your current perspective, you’ll probably remain the same in 10 years."
"Some people have value once they cling to fortune, but even if you obtain the wealth, you won’t have the fate to enjoy it, nor will you have the capability. I feel a bit sorry for you."
After Xu Ke finished speaking, he ignored Su Zining whose face had turned completely dark, and directly went up with Secretary Zhou.
Meanwhile, Hong Xuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, patting Su Zining on the shoulder: "Young man, if you want to keep up with our CEO, you need to improve yourself a bit. Lacking even a bit of competence, you’re probably just cannon fodder for our CEO. With our CEO’s fighting spirit, young man, you’re not cutting it. Seems you really aren’t fit to become the old man’s son-in-law."
After Hong Xuan said this, Su Zining felt even more depressed. Why does everyone seem to think he’s unfitting? Yet he happens to be the destined one, no matter what Wang Cuixia won’t acknowledge Xu Ke as her son. Thinking of this.
At last, Su Zining felt a little relieved. He just didn’t know where Wang Cuixia was right now; hopefully, that damned woman wouldn’t show up at crucial times.
But things somewhat failed to go as planned. Wang Cuixia, who had been abroad and was enjoying the scenery, happened to encounter a group of people all dressed in black suits and shoes, instantly making Wang Cuixia and Uncle Li alert. Although they had gone abroad, presumably the domestic matters wouldn’t concern them anymore, but what exactly were these people here for? The two of them became somewhat frantic.
Especially Uncle Li who stood firmly in front of Wang Cuixia; no matter what, the Wang Family now only has Miss Wang left, ensuring Miss Wang can live peacefully is his biggest dream in this lifetime.
"What exactly are you people here for? Let me tell you, don’t mess things up. Moreover, our Miss Wang hasn’t done anything that prompted you to chase her relentlessly, right?"
"We’ve already listened to your Xiao Family’s words and handed over our wages to you. Now that you’re already married, what else is problematic?"
Saying this, he looked warily at these people, but the circle of people in black showed no expression at all. After all, they were just here to handle matters under people’s orders, why concern themselves with anything else? Hence, each one of them stared at the woman in the center.
Wang Cuixia knew dozens of people came, and with their capability, it was certain they couldn’t escape. Rather than negotiate, she might as well speak frankly. Besides, this probably wasn’t people from the Xiao Family. The marriage at the Xiao Family side had probably concluded. Could something have happened to her son?
Thinking of her son, Wang Cuixia remained somewhat anxious. That kid had always been in Taohua Village, never seen the world. She wondered how he was doing now alone. That kid never came back to see her; Wang Cuixia even waited for quite some time.
Perhaps only after leaving herself behind would her son be at his best. Thinking about this, Wang Cuixia couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.
At this moment, the circle of black-clothed men suddenly opened a path, and an old man with a cane slowly walked over, wearing glasses and a black hat, his appearance was unrecognizable.
Until the old man reached Wang Cuixia, he finally took off his hat and glasses. Seeing this person, Wang Cuixia couldn’t be more familiar.
She never imagined it was someone from the Xu Family who came looking, yet years ago, she had severed all ties with the Xu Family. What does it mean now, coming to her?
Seeing Wang Cuixia now, although she has aged greatly, Xu Long still noticed her as a beauty in her youth.
Seeing Xu Long, Uncle Li remained particularly vigilant. In those years, if it weren’t for Xu Long, Miss Wang wouldn’t have separated from that noble son; the two would now be living blissfully. But because of this person in front of him, Miss Wang and Xu Ke ended up so hard.
Therefore, Uncle Li held no good impression of Xu Long; he was more terrifying than encountering anyone from the Xiao Family.
