Chapter 137: A New Department, Officially Established!

Shen Huai rubbed his sleepy eyes as he walked into the bathroom.

The reflection in the mirror was unshaven, with bloodshot eyes.

This appearance looked exactly like someone who had been drained of their vital essence.

"Damn it, if I agree to their requests like this again, I'm a dog!"

Shen Huai couldn't help but curse.

The scenes of madness from last night replayed in his mind like a slideshow, making his scalp tingle.

Hastily covering the traces of pleasure on his body, Shen Huai threw on some clothes and left.

Just as he arrived downstairs at the company.

Shen Huai sensed that the atmosphere was a bit off.

The female colleagues who usually looked at him with burning gazes were now casting even more flirtatious glances his way.

The girls who previously could only whisper due to social constraints were now practically itching to grab him by the ears and gossip loudly right to his face.

"Look, look! He's here! He's the second young master of the Shen Group! It was just made public!"

"Finally seeing him in person. With such a huge commotion, I thought he had resigned."

"My goodness, looking at him now, he really looks exactly the same!"

"Sigh... if I had known he had this status, I should have been more proactive back then!..."

Shen Huai felt completely uncomfortable under these burning gazes.

He could only quicken his pace and dive into the elevator as if fleeing.

【Ding! ——】

The elevator finally reached the floor where the Public Relations Department was located.

Shen Huai felt a sense of relief and walked toward the office.

But before he could reach the end, he saw Tong Yue standing at the Group 2 office, glaring at him with a livid expression.

"Team Leader Tong, good morning..."

Shen Huai bit the bullet and greeted her.

Tong Yue didn't speak, just gave him a cold look, then turned and walked into the office.

Shen Huai's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself that things were looking bad.

This woman, where had he offended her again?

Why hadn't he seen her smile at him even once since he started at the company?

Could it be...

That she was still holding a grudge because he rejected her attempt to get back together in the elevator a few days ago?

Shen Huai rubbed his temples in annoyance and followed behind Tong Yue into the office.

As soon as he walked into the office, Shen Huai immediately noticed the atmosphere was off.

His colleagues were all keeping their heads down, pretending to be busy.

Yet their eyes were darting toward him every now and then.

"Shen Huai, you're here."

A cold voice rang out.

Shen Huai looked up and realized that Lu Sheng was sitting quietly at Tong Yue's desk, her elbows propped on the surface, chin resting on her hands as she looked at him.

And in front of her lay an open document.

"Director... Director Lu."

Shen Huai felt a sudden sense of guilt as he looked at the faint hickeys on Lu Sheng's neck and her lips, which were noticeably redder than usual.

The scenes of madness from last night couldn't help but surface in his mind again.

"Why aren't you happy? I'm here to tell you some good news."

As Lu Sheng spoke, she lowered her hands from her chin and tapped the document on the table lightly, "The official document has come down. Starting today, Xingyao is officially adding a Creative Development Department."

"You, Shen Huai, are the person in charge of this department. As for your rank, it's the same as mine."

Pausing, Lu Sheng glanced sideways at Tong Yue and said indifferently, "Team Leader Tong, I see that you and this new employee haven't been getting along that well anyway."

"Now that he's being moved out, you should be happy, so why are you still pulling such a long face?"

"..." Tong Yue looked unconvinced. Her face flushed red, and just as she was about to say something, she was stopped by a look from Lu Sheng.

"Team Leader Tong, if you don't have anything urgent here, I'll take Shen Huai away now."

Tong Yue's face was livid, and she glared fiercely at Shen Huai, but could only helplessly watch the two of them leave.

Back in the director's office.

Lu Sheng finally let out a breath and curled her lips into a playful smile: "Congratulations, Director Shen. Was last night pleasant?"

Shen Huai ignored Lu Sheng's alluring gaze, picked up the document, and frowned: "Once this document is signed, does it mean an email will be sent to everyone in the company to announce it?"

"That's right, why?"

Hearing this, Shen Huai put down the document and said calmly: "If that's the case, I request that we add something to the announcement."

"You want to add something?" Lu Sheng immediately became interested, "Tell me about it."

Shen Huai opened a piece of text in his memo and handed it to Lu Sheng to read.

The moment Lu Sheng saw the text, her eyes lit up.

Then, she cast a playful glance at Shen Huai: "Confess."

"Have you been plotting this idea for a long time?"

Shen Huai calmly curled his lips into a smile: "If Director Lu sends this out for me, I'll naturally tell you after it's done."

Lu Sheng glared at him resentfully and handed the phone back to Shen Huai: "Wait a moment, I'll contact the Personnel Department now."

……

One hour later.

All employees within Star Glory received a uniform internal recruitment promotional email.

【The Star Glory Creative Development Department is officially established】

【We are now urgently in need of a group of experienced partners to grow together with the new department!】

【If you have infinite creativity, a keen sense of the market, precise control over new media, super strong data sensitivity, etc., please do not be stingy, enthusiastically submit your resume!】

【Indicate "Applied Position + Name" in the email subject, and briefly state the reasons why you think you are suitable for the position】

【Person in charge of the Creative Development Department: Shen Huai】

Along with the email, countless internal company gossip groups also started buzzing.

【Holy crap! Did you guys see it!? Creative Development Department? Shen Huai is the person in charge?!】

【This world really is about looks; a newcomer who has been here for less than a month actually got Star Glory to open a separate department just for him?!】

【I don't know what you're counting as what over there, but to be honest, I think this is already considered very low-key, right?】

【Exactly. If your dad were the richest man in the country, let alone opening a separate department, it wouldn't be impossible for him to acquire Star Glory!】

【Sigh, you really have to be born to the right parents! What's the point of struggling!】

……

All kinds of rumors and gossip spread rapidly throughout the company.

Some were envious, some were jealous, and some were disdainful.

But regardless, the Creative Development Department had completely spread throughout Star Glory.

"Xiaomei, are you really not going to give it a try?"

In the new media office, several colleagues were sitting together, discussing excitedly.

"Try what? Go and wait to be optimized?" Ai Xiaomei curled her lips in disdain, "The company established a new department; it's obviously meant for trial and error."

"Don't look at how impressive it is now; maybe once the trend passes and there's no news after a while, it will be disbanded. What will we do if we get optimized then?"

"I'm not going to be that sucker!"

Saying this, Ai Xiaomei shook her head and crossed her arms.

After hearing this, everyone nodded thoughtfully.

Unexpectedly.

Out of the blue, a timid voice sounded from the corner.

"Team Leader, but didn't you say in the Canteen earlier that you wanted to pursue General Manager Shen?"

It was Liu Shishi, who was holding a large stack of printed and bound documents, slowly walking in from the doorway.
