Chapter 635 - 616:
After the secretary left, Lin Ziwen felt a heavy pressure in her heart. As an assistant who was temporarily exercising the powers of the CEO, she knew she was still just an assistant. Her capabilities were not on par with Li Ruo’s, and had she not been influenced by Li Ruo over the years, she probably wouldn’t have been able to handle this job.
Just as Lin Ziwen sat motionless on her chair, Minister Li from the Human Resources department pushed the door open and entered, a plump woman—the very one who Li Ruo used to jokingly say wanted to marry Ye Chen, with a rear as broad as a millstone.
"Minister Li, you’re here?" Lin Ziwen hurried forward with respectful greeting. As an assistant now acting as the CEO, she had to maintain the proper attitude, firstly as an assistant and then as a CEO. Although as an assistant her status was far lower than a minister’s, from the CEO’s perspective, she had to be more imposing. It was a delicate balance that she had to handle with precision.
"Um, Assistant Lin, did you need something?" Minister Li walked straight in.
"Please, have a seat!" Lin Ziwen quickly ushered Minister Li to the side and then to the sofa. Lin Ziwen personally made her a cup of coffee, and the two sat face to face. Lin Ziwen was at a loss for words, but it was Minister Li of HR who smiled and said, "Assistant Lin, is there something you wanted to discuss with me?"
"Well, I heard you were resigning, so I specifically wanted to talk to you about it!" Lin Ziwen said with a faint smile, "With ministers leaving the company, and several managers gone too, if this continues, I’m afraid the company might collapse. Minister Li, what difficulties are you facing? Why are you leaving?"
"This..." The plump woman gave an awkward smile and then said helplessly, "Alas, everyone knows that without Heavenly Reversal Gang in Jianghuai City, the Mad Dragon Gang is running rampant. Tianya Group has suffered retaliation from the Mad Dragon Gang, and even Si Yang Group has closed its doors, temporarily stopping work. They can bear the loss, but we cannot. However, our leaders are facing enormous threats. Yesterday, when I stepped out, I nearly got clubbed in the parking garage. Last night, when I took my child shopping, a steel ball came out of nowhere and hit my child on the head, causing a lot of bleeding, so... I hope you can truthfully relay to Mr. Li that I’ve been an old employee of Tianya Group. I love Tianya Group, I love the working atmosphere here, but given the current situation, I really can’t continue."
Lin Ziwen became anxious as she listened, and quickly asked, "Then... your child is okay, right?"
"It’s fine, just a small cut. A little medicine and it’s no big deal!" Minister Li smiled.
"Did you call the police?" Lin Ziwen let out a sigh of relief and wondered to herself if she had a child and encountered the same thing as Minister Li, what would she do? Would she choose to leave Tianya Group? Lin Ziwen had no confidence.
