Chapter 2226: Don't Play Too Hard

Su Kexuan was not surprised by this result.

General Manager Zhong's ultimate goal was to drive Su Kexuan away.

But Su Kexuan did not want to play along.

She said to her assistant, "For these two days, I won't be going to the company. You keep an eye on things there; besides General Manager Zhong's group, see who else is wavering."

"Yes."

"In three days at most, the partner company will send people over. Arrange a meeting then to introduce them to everyone."

"... We're still holding a meeting to introduce them? Wouldn't an internal company email suffice? I'm worried... that a fight might break out."

"It's not like the fight will be on you, what are you afraid of? This meeting must be held."

"Sigh, alright then."

The assistant felt that the situation was not looking right.

When the meeting takes place, the Security Guard at the door must be in position.

The surveillance equipment must also be prepared; there can be no blind spots.

And also...

Just as the assistant was secretly pondering, their phone suddenly went "Ding-dong."

They took it out to look, and instantly, their face blossomed with a smile.

It turned out Su Kexuan had sent them another big red envelope.

She said, "These next few days will be very hard for you; I'll need you to put in the effort."

"Hey, what are you saying? This is what I should be doing anyway! By the way, when you open your place another day, I'm going to send a huge flower basket!"

Under the power of money, the assistant was instantly full of motivation.

The worry on their face had also vanished.

Su Kexuan thought of something else and cautioned, "Do not leak to the outside that I am going to partner with the Li Family to open an art gallery."

"Rest assured, I won't say a single word."

After making the promise, the assistant sighed, "If General Manager Zhong knew you were on such good terms with the Li Family, I'm afraid they wouldn't dare pull these stunts."

Actually, General Manager Zhong knew that Su Kexuan lived with Jiang Mobai.

They had also been observing secretly for a few days.

Once they discovered the Li Family had no intention of intervening, they began to imagine all sorts of things.

Like, the playboy was just playing around with Su Kexuan.

Like, Su Kexuan lacked feminine charm and couldn't tether the playboy's heart.

Like, Su Kexuan was just a scapegoat, and Jiang Mobai had a secret crush on someone else...

Su Kexuan did not know what General Manager Zhong was imagining.

But these imaginings were truly helping her.

Otherwise, Su Kexuan would feel that the trap she set was meaningless...

After speaking a few more words with the assistant, Su Kexuan returned to her friends.

She said to her friends, "Recently, there will be some turmoil within my company. Once you know about it, there's no need to intervene."

As soon as Li Xingyan heard this, he knew Su Kexuan was preparing to take action.

Jiang Mobai was a bit worried, but he didn't say anything.

Xie Wanyi, however, promised readily, "If you need anything, just ask."

"Okay."

Su Kexuan checked the time and suggested, "I know a restaurant nearby that's quite good. Let's go have lunch together; my treat."

Jiang Mobai knew which one Su Kexuan was talking about.

He immediately started promoting it: "That place's spicy chicken is excellent; the meat is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant but not greasy, and the numbing spice is so satisfying! Oh, and there's the sweet and sour pineapple sweet and sour pork, roasted lamb chops, garlic crawfish..."

Before Jiang Mobai had even finished speaking, his friends walked away from him one by one.

This left Jiang Mobai puzzled.

He stood behind the crowd, waving his hands like Er Kang: "Hey, where are you all going!"

"Going to eat, of course."

Everyone hadn't been hungry to begin with.

But after Jiang Mobai's recommendation, everyone's cravings had been stirred up.

Who would listen to him list dishes now?

Hurry to the restaurant!

Facts proved that Jiang Mobai's description was not an exaggeration.

The dishes he recommended were truly delicious.

They left the friends full of praise.

Only, while they were eating, some unfavorable news about Su Kexuan was exposed.

The assistant compiled these reports and sent them to Su Kexuan.

In these reports, Su Kexuan's company was facing an operational crisis due to her poor management.

When problems arose, she didn't actively solve them, but instead practiced nepotism, causing the company's management to complain endlessly.

The shareholders also had strong opinions about her and hoped she would come forward to provide an explanation.

And at this moment, that poorly managing boss was nonchalantly looking at the news.

After reading it all, her mood didn't fluctuate in the slightest.

Putting the phone down, she continued to eat.

However, Jiang Motian was not that calm.

She was sitting right beside Su Kexuan, so she saw those messages.

At this moment, Jiang Motian furrowed her brows and complained, "Why are there always people who believe every rumor they hear? They should be sued for spreading falsehoods!"

"It's not entirely falsehoods, though; things really aren't peaceful in the company."

Regarding the rumors about the company, they had previously only spread within a small circle.

And they were all unofficial, not formal.

Now that it is being done with such fanfare...

It shows that President Zhong is about to be driven to desperation.

But Su Kexuan would not tear things apart with him right now.

She wanted to let him jump around for a while longer.

Su Kexuan secretly plotted.

Li Xingyan spoke up at this moment: "The company matters should be handled as soon as possible; don't let it affect the opening of the art gallery."

Jiang Motian felt that Li Xingyan's words were too heartless, so she immediately nudged him with her arm as a warning.

But Li Xingyan was not being heartless.

He was simply telling Su Kexuan not to play too big.

Once the plan is mostly implemented, she should hurry up and close the net.

Su Kexuan understood what Li Xingyan meant.

She smiled faintly and promised, "It won't take too long, don't worry."

Jiang Motian quickly said, "Of course we have confidence in you! They are just small fry, how could they be your match!"

Small fry?

Jiang Mobai did not think so.

He had investigated President Zhong.

He discovered that there were other forces behind this President Zhong.

Jiang Mobai had also warned Su Kexuan.

But whether Su Kexuan took it to heart...

It is hard to say.

On the other side, in the company—

President Zhong sat in his leather chair with a livid complexion, his eyes sinister.

He originally had not intended to tear off the mask with Su Kexuan so quickly.

It was that woman who acted too fast.

She signed the contract directly!

It caused all his previous efforts to go down the drain!

It also left him unable to answer to the people behind him!

Since that was the case, President Zhong had to strike hard and drag her down from the position of boss!

As a result...

For the next three days in a row, Su Kexuan did not show her face.

In the company, people's hearts were unsettled.

President Zhong was also a bit uneasy.

He felt that all of this was too abnormal.

President Zhong's confidant said, "Su Kexuan knows the situation is already set in stone; coming here would only be a humiliation, which is why she doesn't dare to come to the company."

Afraid of humiliation?

Based on President Zhong's understanding of Su Kexuan, she was not afraid of such things.

Furthermore, President Zhong had set up his trap in the company, just waiting for Su Kexuan to show up.

If she never came, how was the plan supposed to proceed?

President Zhong felt irritable and knitted his brows. He said viciously, "If that woman can hand over management rights as soon as possible, I can still leave her some dignity; otherwise..."

President Zhong narrowed his eyes, his hostility rising.

Seeing that President Zhong still had a backup plan, the confidant asked curiously, "We've already sent out so many messages and ruined Su Kexuan's reputation; what more can we do to her now?"

"Her current troubles are only related to work; if we add some other explosive material, it will escalate to a matter of character. When that time comes, Su Kexuan will truly be finished once exposed!"
