Feeling Yang Chen's indifference, Wei Xueqing's excitement also subsided, and she began to calm down.
"Why did you come back?" Wei Xueqing said coldly, "Wouldn't it be better to just take off and never return!"
Yang Chen knew that Wei Xueqing was probably angry about his sudden departure that day without saying goodbye.
Yang Chen shook his head and said, "I left because I had a necessary task to complete. Now that I'm back, it means the task is finished."
Wei Xueqing glanced at Yang Chen and saw his tattered clothes, understanding that Yang Chen must have endured a lot of hardships outside before returning.
She sighed and didn't pursue the topic further.
"Why are you here? Have you seen Yanyan? She has been so worried these days, you know," Wei Xueqing said.
Yang Chen shook his head, "Not yet. I just got off the train and ran into Teacher Ding, and she happened to have a student looking for a summer job, so I thought of letting her try your shop."
Upon hearing this, Wei Xueqing looked at Ding Yutong and said, "Where is the student? Do you want me to say hello?"
"No need, no need," Ding Yutong quickly waved her hand.
Yang Chen also said, "That's not necessary. The master leads the way; cultivation depends on the individual. Bringing her here is already a shortcut. If we let you say hello, it might affect her growth."
If you start cutting corners and using connections while still a student, it might become a social hazard in the future.
The years of education aim to teach children well and set the right value and worldview. But turning bad can often happen instantly.
"By the way," Yang Chen said to Wei Xueqing, "Prepare for the foreign investment group the day after tomorrow. Get ready in advance."
"The day after tomorrow?" Wei Xueqing widened her eyes, staring at Yang Chen, "So urgent? When was this arranged? Does the person in charge know?"
Yang Chen shook his head, "They don't know yet, but I'll inform them."
"This..." Wei Xueqing looked troubled, glanced at the documents on the table, and said, "You... alright! Wait for me a moment. Let me handle the documents first. I need to coordinate with you; otherwise, the work can't progress."
"No problem," Yang Chen wasn't in a hurry today.
Wei Xueqing quickly sat down to handle the documents. Besides, she had several client meetings scheduled for today.
Now it seems those meetings would have to be postponed.
Yang Chen said to Ding Yutong, "Let's go, Teacher Ding. I'll show you around their company."
"Alright!" Ding Yutong seemed excited, considering she had never been to Shangdong Group, which was currently very prestigious and piqued her curiosity.
This entire floor was the Shangdong Group's office area, which was very spacious.
However, given the current situation of the Shangdong Group, one floor was becoming insufficient for its office needs.
Adding the office areas of several other subsidiary companies, they could almost fill an entire building.
Buying a standalone building would appear more impressive.
The two strolled down the corridor, with Yang Chen introducing the various departments to Ding Yutong.
After all, Yang Chen had worked here before, and his keen observation skills meant he was well acquainted with Shangdong Group.
At this moment, a group of three arrived at Shangdong Group's front desk.
"Hello, I'm Xu Liwen. I have an appointment with your President Wei."
Nie Xiaoying glanced at the appointment list and frowned, "Ms. Xu, your appointment was scheduled for 9:40 am, and it's already 10:20 now."
Xu Liwen quickly said, "I'm really sorry, there was a mishap on the way, so I'm late. Could you please inform her?"
Nie Xiaoying said with difficulty, "You know, our President Wei is very busy. She also has many meetings today, and your time has passed. I think..."
"Please, sister," Xu Liwen quickly pulled out a Chanel lipstick from her bag and whispered, "Just ask for me, please."
She had a knack for dealing with women since women love beauty.
Especially those in a small front desk position who have little resistance against luxury brand cosmetics!
Sure enough, when Nie Xiaoying saw the lipstick, her brows lit up with joy, "Thank you, sis! I'll go ask for you!"
Immediately, Nie Xiaoying went to the CEO's office door.
But seeing Zhou Lan wasn't there, she went to find Zhou Lan.
After all, she didn't dare knock directly on Wei Xueqing's door and needed to check with Zhou Lan first.
Meanwhile, waiting at the front desk, Xu Liwen seemed to notice a familiar figure.
She quickly patted the bodyguard beside her, pointing at the two figures ahead, "Don't those two look familiar?"
The two security guards, with their faces swollen like pigs, blinked and looked in the direction Xu Liwen pointed. After a closer look, they said, "It seems like... those two people from before."
"That's right! It's them!" Xu Liwen confirmed.
"Why are they here?" Xu Liwen frowned.
Even now, she still didn't think those two had any clout. If they were truly wealthy, would they be dressed so shabbily?
Xu Liwen watched the two wandering around the company, seemingly looking for someone, or perhaps they were just touring, which appeared odd to her.
At this time, Xu Liwen saw Nie Xiaoying walking over, while on the other side, a young girl joined Yang Chen and the others.
Nie Xiaoying came over and said, "Hi, please wait in the lounge for a moment. Our President Wei is currently busy, and someone will come to get you later."
"Oh! Okay!" Xu Liwen frowned as she glanced at Yang Chen and the others, then walked to the lounge.
At this moment, Xu Liwen saw Yang Chen and Ding Yutong leading the young girl over to them.
Could it be that these two were using the young girl to steal?
Xu Liwen thought it was possible. Reflecting on Yang Chen's earlier actions, he seemed like a pro. Otherwise, why could he handle things so swiftly, leaving her no room to retaliate!
Thinking of this, Xu Liwen felt that the bag at that time might have been hers! They might have just had a foreigner answer the phone!
She realized she'd been tricked!
At this moment, Xu Liwen saw the trio directly push the CEO's office door open!
This time, Xu Liwen couldn't stay seated any longer. She quickly went to the front desk and said, "Hi! Someone just went into your president's office. Are you sure no one will address it?"
"Ah? Who?" Nie Xiaoying was also puzzled.
How could someone who didn't have an appointment enter the president's office?
"It was that person just now, dressed so raggedly like a migrant worker. Without anyone accompanying him, he just pushed the door and went in with two women. I believe they might be thieves!" Xu Liwen said.
"Ah! Really?" Nie Xiaoying became nervous.
"If you don't believe me, go check!" Xu Liwen quickly said.
Nie Xiaoying thought for a moment, first called the security, then quickly went towards the president's office with Xu Liwen.
