Taishan Group, CEO’s Office! Fresh chapters posted on noᴠelfire.net
Ever since Sheng Shuai disappeared, Sheng Kun had no choice but to take over the role of chairman. Outside of the monthly shareholders’ meeting, he basically delegated his work to subordinates and was rarely seen.
Today was precisely the day of Taishan Group’s shareholders’ meeting. The meeting room was noisy with people discussing the major urban redevelopment project for Jin City with exceptional fervor.
Sheng Kun was getting a bit dizzy from all the noise and was about to take a break when he saw his confidant, Ah Can, hurriedly push the door open and whisper in his ear, "Master, there’s someone asking to see you."
"Didn’t you see I’m suffering from a headache? Don’t see them," Sheng Kun stood up, gestured for everyone to continue, and then, with the aid of Ah Can, left the meeting room and headed towards his office.
"Master, this person, you will definitely want to see," Ah Can said quietly. "It’s Ye Shu..."
"Oh?" As soon as Sheng Kun heard the name Ye Shu, his spirits lifted suddenly, and he waved his hand, "Bring her to my office!"
It was Ye Shu’s first visit to Taishan Group, and as soon as she entered, she was struck by the group’s poised and classic décor. True to its name, the Taishan Group seemed remarkably stable, dominating its territory.
Before she even entered Sheng Kun’s office, just as she reached the door, she saw that Sheng Kun was already waiting.
Ye Shu greeted him politely, "Uncle Kun, long time no see!"
"Long time no see, indeed! Come in, come in, Ye Shu, I have been waiting for you to come to me, but I didn’t expect that wait to turn into several years."
Ye Shu didn’t wish to engage in pleasantries with Sheng Kun because her visit today wasn’t for catching up on old times.
"Ye Shu, I heard that you are looking to set up a new group, called Heng Kong Entertainment?" Sheng Kun spoke and shook his head, "Actually, why bother starting from scratch with so much effort? I know you’ve fallen out with the Sheng Mansion, but you still have me. The CEO position at Taishan Group is yours anytime you want it!"
Ye Shu smiled without responding. She didn’t understand what Sheng Kun meant, but to casually offer the CEO position of a multinational conglomerate to someone else—if it wasn’t with an ulterior motive, then it was treating her like a fool.
Sheng Kun seemed to have seen through Ye Shu’s thoughts and said, "Ye Shu, I know you might find what I just said unbelievable, but I assure you, this is a decision I’ve made after careful consideration, not a joke. Although we have not been in much contact, I have always kept an eye on you. With your capabilities, you are absolutely qualified for the CEO position!"
Seeing that Ye Shu seemed unwilling to discuss the topic of poaching talent, Sheng Kun personally brewed her a cup of hot tea and placed it in front of her, saying, "Of course, I am just clarifying my attitude. If you are not interested in taking a position at Taishan Group, I won’t force you. This is Daye soil tea, from Guangxi Yuzhou. Have a taste."
Ye Shu took a sip and smiled, "Uncle Kun, didn’t you used to love Da Hong Pao the most? How come your taste has changed in a few years?"
"Yes, it’s strange how people can change. What one used to like can suddenly become unlikeable at any moment, but... sigh..." After this sigh, Sheng Kun’s expression also turned somewhat sorrowful, and he murmured, "However, my son’s feelings for you have never changed, and they only seem to grow deeper..."
