Chapter 1465: Chapter 1464: Their Scheming Hearts
The follow-up matters are to be discussed at the next meeting. What does this mean? Considering the situation, Li Yan has no intention of letting others in the branch know his true plan.
Because in this branch, he doesn’t have his own personnel; all of them have been transferred by Gong Qingwan. So, entrusting such an important project to them would render them nothing but stumbling blocks. How could Li Yan be so foolish as to hand the project over to them?
Gong Qingwan could see his intention clearly. Li Yan’s gradual strategic pressure made it so that even if she said one more word, it would be a mistake.
Moreover, saying more would be futile. Gong Qingwan had already embarrassed herself several times today and naturally did not want to keep hitting a brick wall, to avoid any further unpleasant incidents.
Li Yan waved grandly and unceremoniously said, "Let’s adjourn."
Sheng Qingning and Wu Genmao, those close confidants of Gong Qingwan, were sitting dumbly without daring to speak. With the situation as it was, none of them were fools; they could naturally understand that this was a contest between Gong Qingwan and Li Yan, and the others were merely sitting in, having no extra role.
However, judging by this, this feud within the elite family is indeed a grand drama, far from being as simple as it appears on the surface.
Gong Qingwan was also somewhat tired. She lazily stood up and said, "Alright, since the meeting is over, I’ll leave first. The remaining matters will be entrusted to the Eldest Young Master."
After speaking, Gong Qingwan walked decisively towards the door. Her demeanor appeared ever so dignified, but in truth, her heart felt as if it were burning, enduring endless suffocation and frustration.
She understood that she still needed to persevere; she could not lose yet. All endurance had its reason and needed to be gradual.
The war hasn’t reached its final stage, and who can tell the true victor? Many matters are like this: impatience can disrupt major plans. As long as one can endure loneliness, slowly devise strategies, eventually, they’ll see the shore ahead.
With such a hopeful mindset, Gong Qingwan left.
All the people in the meeting room looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Eventually, their gaze fell on Sheng Qingning because, in a certain sense, Sheng Qingning is considered the leader within the branch.
Sheng Qingning, somewhat dazed, said, "General Manager, what should we do next?"
Though they said they had talked it over, it was still on the surface. They had no real action plan, none of them knew what to do, feeling all sorts of confusion, devoid of confidence.
Li Yan did not make things difficult for him but spoke calmly, "You should continue as usual. I’ll make separate arrangements for this matter. If needed, a special assistant will contact you."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of a certain assistant’s mouth, as if to say you can come to find me anytime.
Sheng Qingning understood something and quickly said to the certain assistant, "Then I’ll rely on you, brother. If anything comes up, we’ll coordinate tasks separately."
The certain assistant was straightforward and said, "Alright, no problem!"
Recently, while he was at the company, those high-ranking vice presidents never regarded him eye-to-eye, even considered him an enemy, thinking he had no capabilities.
Now, the situation has changed. As things come full circle, when they see the certain assistant now, they have to be obsequious and nod one by one.
In truth, being beside the Devil King, the certain assistant never worried about such honors but rather worried about too much trouble. If it weren’t for executing tasks, the certain assistant would not bother with people in the branch. He dislikes vice presidents and the like; he perceives them as having ulterior motives, always conspiring with Gong Qingwan to trap the Devil King. How could he mingle with such people?
After all, wherever the Devil King goes, he is a shining figure, attracting countless people eager to curry favor.
