Chapter 569: Chapter 292: Wen Ruan’s Return to Light and Shadow Media_5 Chapter 569: Chapter 292: Wen Ruan’s Return to Light and Shadow Media_5 Between the words, there were quite a few opinions about Wen Ruan.
No matter what, the company’s crisis had started with her.
Facing an unpredictable future, they subconsciously pushed the blame onto a target to exchange for a trivial sense of belonging and identity by collectively complaining and huddling together for warmth.
In short, it was all due to underlying fear.
Zhong Ying, sitting in the corner, had a gloomy expression and did not join in the complaints.
All her grievances with Wen Ruan stemmed from Director Wang Liyu.
However, after Director Wang gave up pursuing Wen Ruan, his attitude towards her did not change.
This had gradually made her sober up, and she no longer held any opinions against Wen Ruan.
Now, she was more worried about her own future and the prospect of not seeing Director Wang after leaving the company.
Listening to their discussions, Zhang Xintong’s face reddened, and she couldn’t help but blurt out, “Wen Ruan’s resignation was also manipulated by President Liu from Imperial City, right? According to what you all are saying, it was his fault too!”
Li Meiling’s face darkened.
She had painstakingly tried to please the other party and ended up empty-handed, and now she had to face the possibility that the company might close down, which was very upsetting to her.
Just then, a flurry of hurried footsteps was heard.
The company’s HR director and two administrative associates hurried into the office area.
“Clap, clap, clap—” The HR director clapped her hands forcefully and announced loudly, “Quiet! Everyone immediately get to work! A very important leader is coming soon! It concerns the life and death of our company!”
As she spoke, she walked straight through the marketing planning department and headed inward.
The Yan City headquarters of Light and Shadow Media employed many people, occupying most of the 15th-floor office area.
Right after, a similar notification was received in the WeChat group.
The office area instantly became spirited.
No longer thinking about complaining about Wen Ruan.
While maintaining a facade of quietness, frantic discussions started in various small groups.
Soon, an informed colleague revealed the identity of the “leaders.”
Representatives negotiating the acquisition agreement with the company.
Everyone’s eyes lit up with excitement and anticipation, the sound of their keyboards “clattering.”
If the company was being acquired, that meant their company had value, and they still had a significant chance to stay on.
Zhang Xintong’s eyes darted around, and she quickly sent this message to Wen Ruan.
With the current atmosphere in the company, no handing over of work could be done today even if people came.
Everyone would be focused on the negotiation that would determine their fate.
A tense and anxious atmosphere unknowingly spread within Light and Shadow Media.
A message rapidly exploded in various WeChat groups: “They’re here! The chairman personally went down to receive them!”
In an instant, the office was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, everyone pretending to work seriously.
Dense, rhythmic footsteps came from the doorway.
It was as if they were stepping on everyone’s hearts, “thump, thump—”
“They’re in!” someone whispered softly.
Everyone couldn’t help but steal glances towards the door.
Shortly after, a wave of surprised murmurs arose.
The ones leading were two women.
One of them was tall and slim with a stern face, walking decisively.
Next to her was a tall, curvy woman dressed in a shirt and a skirt that hugged her curves, looking quite sexy.
Following them, beside them, besides familiar executives like Chairman Zhang Shun and Vice President Xu Feiyu, there were also about ten unfamiliar men and women in suits and shoes, all composed and imposing.
In the company of these people, the two women appeared exceptionally imposing.
Yet everyone’s gazes were drawn to Wen Ruan, standing on the left, and they were dumbstruck.
