"Ah! Mr. Zhang, don’t, I can walk by myself!"
"I can walk by myself too!"
Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen hurriedly said.
"What are you standing around for? Hurry up and follow." Zhang Xiaohao said gruffly.
he strode towards the company.
"Mr. Zhang, hello!" The security guards at the door, seeing Zhang Xiaohao come over, respectfully saluted.
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaohao nodded with satisfaction.
He took the two women with him and entered the company.
"Mr. Zhang, hello!" Seeing Zhang Xiaohao, Zhang Jiao greeted him with a smile.
"Jiaojiao is getting prettier by the day! Some people are really lucky," Zhang Xiaohao teased with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang!" Zhang Jiao immediately blushed.
"Haha..." Zhang Xiaohao laughed loudly, and with the two women, he took the elevator to the twelfth floor.
Once on the twelfth floor, he headed straight for Cheng Tianxue’s office.
Zhang Xiaohao didn’t bother knocking, he simply opened the office door.
"Ah! Mr. Zhang, you’re here." A clerk, surprised to see Zhang Xiaohao, exclaimed.
"You are?" Zhang Xiaohao asked, puzzled.
"Mr. Zhang, my name is Wen Xiaoya, I am Mr. Cheng’s temporary secretary," Wen Xiaoya said respectfully.
"Hmm, is Mr. Cheng in?" Zhang Xiaohao inquired.
"Mr. Cheng isn’t here; he’s in the next room having a meeting. I came here to help Mr. Cheng fetch some materials," Wen Xiaoya explained.
"Hmm." Zhang Xiaohao nodded, and, with Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen, headed outside.
"Eh! Weren’t these two women missing? How come they’re back? Could it be Lin Xiaowen wants to take my place?" Wen Xiaoya thought suspiciously to herself.
With this thought in mind, she felt anxious but utterly helpless.
With a bitter smile on her face, she knew that in the company, no one dared to go against Mr. Zhang’s authority. If Mr. Zhang insisted on kicking her out, Mr. Cheng wouldn’t protect her either.
Wen Xiaoya shook her head, giving the secretary seat she had not yet warmed up a reluctant glance, thinking to herself that she would have to pack up and leave soon.
Zhang Xiaohao opened the door and walked straight in.
Hearing the door open, the people in the meeting room frowned and showed dissatisfaction, subconsciously looking back.
Upon seeing that the person arriving was Zhang Xiaohao, their dissatisfaction quickly vanished. They looked up at the ceiling, then at the pen in their hands, pretending as if they hadn’t noticed anything.
"Why are you here?" Cheng Tianxue said with a frown.
This guy, in her memory, was always elusive like a "Divine Dragon," seldom showing up. On average, if he spent half the month at the company, that was already quite good.
Not to mention attending meetings.
"I’m here for the meeting!" Zhang Xiaohao replied nonchalantly, shrugging.
He clapped his hands indicating for Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen to come in.
"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Su, hello to all the managers." Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen walked in, keeping their heads down as they greeted everyone.
"Hmm? Why have you two come?" Cheng Tianxue frowned as she spoke.
The incident from last time still hadn’t been resolved.
After such a major scandal, instead of facing it, the two of them had simply vanished, and this had been like a thorn in her throat, creating an uncomfortable feeling that she couldn’t shake off.
"I asked them to come," Zhang Xiaohao said.
He walked over to the conference table.
Aside from Ma Xiaorong, who had died, almost all the senior executives of Bai Xue Company were present.
Zhang Xiaohao approached Cheng Tianxue, patted her cool shoulder twice, and signaled for her to be quiet.
Everyone seated there was surprised to see this, but each of them, being astute, didn’t show it, pretending they saw nothing.
"Wu Qiaoqiao, Lin Xiaowen, the two of you will recount the incident that happened that day," Zhang Xiaohao instructed.
"Okay," Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen both replied.
They then recounted the events of that day in serious detail from beginning to end.
A quarter of an hour later.
Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen had finished detailing the incident, standing there awkwardly with their heads lowered.
"The incident that day has been fully explained by these two, and they are not related to this issue. Now, I will discuss two matters," Zhang Xiaohao said sternly.
Without waiting for a reaction from those seated, he continued directly.
"Firstly, regarding the previous incident, from now on, it is to be left in the past. I don’t want to hear anyone in the company gossiping about it behind our backs! If I do find out, they can pack their things and get lost!"
"Secondly, concerning their positions! Wu Qiaoqiao will continue as the PR department’s office director. As for Lin Xiaowen, since Mr. Cheng already has a new secretary and the secretary position is no longer suitable for her, it just so happens that there is an open spot as the finance department manager, so let’s have her try out as the finance manager for a while," Zhang Xiaohao declared authoritatively.
"I object!" the HR manager Song Fuzhong said angrily.
"Oh? What would you like to object to?" Zhang Xiaohao asked provocatively.
"Mr. Zhang, there’s no issue with the first matter—you’ve spoken, and as your colleagues, we must show you respect. But with the second matter, I object!" Song Fuzhong reiterated indignantly.
"Do you think that matters?" Zhang Xiaohao said with a shrug.
"Hmph!" Song Fuzhong snorted and looked past Zhang Xiaohao, directly addressing Cheng Tianxue.
"Mr. Cheng, we cannot simply comply with the whims of certain individuals! If an incident like the last one occurs again, our Bai Xue Company might truly be beyond saving!" Song Fuzhong insisted.
Cheng Tianxue looked indifferently at Zhang Xiaohao and then at Wu Qiaoqiao and Lin Xiaowen, but she did not speak.
Seeing Mr. Cheng’s reaction, Song Fuzhong grew even more anxious.
"Mr. Cheng, we’ve already come up with a plan. The candidates for the positions of finance department manager and PR department office director have been decided. It would be disastrous to change this decision based on a few words from some people, completely undermining the company’s credibility!" Song Fuzhong argued fiercely.

Zhang Xiaohao’s eyes narrowed slightly, as a menacing aura leaked from within him.
He looked at Song Fuzhong with amusement.
"Mr. Zhang, give me a reason that can convince me!" Cheng Tianxue said calmly.
"Mr. Cheng! You must not let personal feelings interfere with this matter! This issue is crucial to the company’s long-term survival!" Song Fuzhong urged urgently.
"Shut your mouth!" Cheng Tianxue snapped coldly.
"Mr. Cheng! No matter what, as the HR manager, I will never agree to this!" Song Fuzhong slammed the table and roared.
"Who gave you such audacity to slam the table?" Zhang Xiaohao demanded, his face stern.
"Hmph! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re scheming! Let me tell you, as long as Song Fuzhong is in HR, I will not agree to this!" Song Fuzhong said with unchecked anger.
