The moment Su Heng finished speaking, the room descended into silence.
They had yet to understand the underlying meaning behind Su Heng's words.
Or rather, did he make a mistake?
The chief executive director could not be managed by anyone?
Nobody dared to provoke the R&D Department.
Who was the comment directed at?
After a prolonged period of staring contest, everyone finally cast their gaze on Shen Fanxing.
The answer was obvious.
Shen Fanxing was surprised for a while before she finally regained her composure and her lips turned upwards in a faint radian.
That smile on her beautiful face signified nothing but sarcasm.
Who was the chief executive director for the R&D Department?
Shen Fanxing!
Who was the chief perfumer for the Su Company?
Shen Fanxing!
Su Heng's words were meant to deny the positions she was holding!
This…
"Mr Su, you aren't kidding, right? We have all witnessed Director Shen's capabilities! After all, she has been managing the R&D Department. Nobody knows it better than her. "
"Exactly. There is no need to even think about this. We have no problem with Ms Shen Qianrou being the advertiser of our products, but how do you want us to agree to her ascension?"
Then, Liu Qi spoke,
"Yes, Mr Su, it's unfair to drop this bomb on us. You should know that there are some employees waiting to be promoted! Ms Shen just came and got the most important position for two departments. She would be busy enough acting and advertising. Where would she have the time for this?… And not everyone is capable like Director Shen."
Liu Qi's last sentence was full of disdain, implying his approval of Shen Fanxing.
Everyone agreed with him and expressed disapproval at this arrangement.
The conference room erupted into a chaotic chatter.
Shen Qianrou assessed the current situation in front of her, her beautiful eyes slightly grievous.
She looked at Su Heng resignedly.
Su Heng frowned, his face showing deeper anger.
"Since I've made this decision, there must be a reason why I made it."
"But Mr Su, we have to understand the reason behind why you decided to helicopter her in. Besides the fact that she was a professional celebrity, I don't understand how you expect us to trust her wholly and work with her?"
Everyone raised their objections, seemingly siding with Shen Fanxing.
Su Heng pursed his lips, trying to suppress his anger.
It was then that the co-director—Annali—of the R&D Department spoke. She was also one of the engineers for the Su Company's make-up products. Without any tinge of emotions, she said,
"I went to the scent-making contest in France last year. I've seen Ms Shen Qianrou and I remembered the judge calling you Rosanna..."
Shen Qianrou smiled awkwardly and said, "It's nothing much. I just got fourth place, which I should feel bad about."
Shen Fanxing, who was silent all this while, had emotions flashed before her eyes.
