Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful
Chapter 373 - Multiple Identities (1)
Chapter 373: Multiple Identities (1)
One thing was worth mentioning. The general manager of Sheng Huang Group was none other than the young master of the Nie family, Nie Yunfan. He was Nie Xingzhi’s nephew who was the general manager of Nie Group and had a strong bond with the former master of the Zhao family.
The uncle-nephew pair from the Nie family were the oddballs in the business arena. However, referring to the two as “oddballs” was definitely a commendatory term.
Back then, when Nie Xingzhi first entered the business arena, he had deceived many people and caused them bankruptcy just by showing a gentle, smiling face during the round-table negotiation. He was nicknamed as a wolf in sheep’s clothing!
Within only a few years since he joined Nie Group, Nie Group’s various businesses turnover had doubled. Many people were amazed by his achievements.
However, what caught them by surprise the most was, Nie Xingzhi, who had such a talent for business had not ended up taking over Nie Group and became the successor of Nie Group. In fact, he had willingly retired to the second line and became the general manager of Nie Group. He dedicated himself to supporting his older brother, who was Nie Yunfan’s father, to further expand the Nie Group.
Nie Xingzhi had not married even today, much less a child of his own. Therefore, he did his best to cultivate and raise his older brother’s son, Nie Yunfan.
Nie Yunfan had been personally trained by Nie Xingzhi. As such, regardless of his style of action or negotiation tactics, the actions he took were literally the same as Nie Xingzhi. He had gained a reputation in the business arena since he was at a very young age. He was nicknamed as the young fox in sheep’s clothing!
However, just when Nie Yunfan was gradually rising in the business arena and everyone had thought that the Nie family was about to bring in some new changes, Nie Yunfan suddenly left the Nie Group and co-founded with a partner to form Sheng Huang Group.
At that time, his action had set off public outrage. Many people had reprimanded Nie Yunfan for being ungrateful and betraying his ancestors once he became successful enough to stand on his own.
Some had also speculated that the reason Nie Xingzhi worked as the general manager was only a scheme to usurp power and interests. Therefore, usurping the Nie Group was only a matter of time. After all, in the end, Nie Yunfan was still only Nie Xingzhi’s nephew and a gap existed between the two.
A great man could not brook a rival. When a disagreement broke out between the two, Nie Yunfan had decided to depart from Nie Group and set up his own company.
No matter how, after so many years, Sheng Huang Group was expanding and Nie Group had never once interfered in its business nor blocked its path.
Nie Xingzhi never met his nephew formally in the business arena. It looked like the two had avoided each other on purpose.
One thing was sure, Zhao Youlin had never had any dealings with the Nie family. She occasionally heard the former master mention that he was a friend of Nie Xingzhi. Besides, Nie Xingzhi had always praised his nephew. It seemed like the uncle-nephew pair had a rather amicable relationship. Unlike what the outsiders had said, claiming that they had bad blood against each other.
Could the former master worry that she could not handle the meeting on her own today and so, he had looked for Nie Xingzhi to ask Nie Yunfan to come over to lend her a helping hand?
Zhao Youlin furrowed her eyebrows. Soon, she regained her calm expression. She rose and said to the crowd, “I need to handle some urgent matters, so I have to leave the meeting for a short moment. You guys could take a look at these documents first. Li, distribute these documents to the chiefs.”
“Oh, okay.” Li looked dejected as she took over Zhao Youlin’s documents and distributed them to the crowd. The way she looked at Zhao Youlin was somehow depressive.
Zhao Youlin’s entire body shuddered under her stare. She frowned and felt strange. Was the lass accusing her of leaving her alone to handle so many people? But, this was not her first time experiencing so? Why had she not noticed her resentment like this before? Indeed, she had been spoiled by Ling Ran.
Zhao Youlin did not give it a second thought. She quickly left the meeting room with Xiao Jingyao. However, when she passed by Zhao Youming, she paused mid-stride. She locked gazes with him for a brief moment before she completely walked out of the meeting room.
Once Zhao Youlin left the meeting room, she hurriedly rushed over to her office. On the way, her mind raced for various reasons that would lead to Nie Yunfan paying her a visit.
However, when she arrived at her office and saw the person, all her speculations were overturned. She was completely caught by surprise.
“You… Why are you here?” Zhao Youlin widened her eyes and looked at the man in disbelief. He was sitting leisurely on her couch and drinking water. In fact, he looked like he had slightly lost his composure…
At that moment, Zhao Youlin finally came to realize why Li had been looking at her in such a depressive manner when she left the meeting room. Her idol had appeared all of sudden and his appearance had sucked her soul away. Yet, Zhao Youlin had made her stay inside the meeting room. How could she not be depressed?
However, hasn’t this guy said that he would come back after a month? There were still a few days left before the deadline. Why would he suddenly appear now?!
Could it be true that her threatening remarks had worked last time? This man had rushed back because he was afraid that his wife would be taken away by others when he was not around?
The man who was not supposed to appear so early before Zhao Youlin put down his glass of water. He quirked one of his eyebrows as he said, “I came here to negotiate a contract with the general manager of Zhao Enterprise. Where else could I be if not here?”
“Contract negotiation?” Zhao Youlin was stunned for some time before she was snapped out of her daze. She exclaimed, “Are you from Sheng Huang Group? Are you the general manager?”
“Not the general manager, but he’s the president. I am the general manager of the Sheng Huang Group.” Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, a voice with a hint of faint laughter rose from the side of another couch.
Zhao Youlin looked in the direction of the couch and was greeted by the sight of teasing foxy eyes. Her heart unwittingly clenched.
The young man who was sitting on the couch looked like he was in his early twenties. He wore a pure white, fitting formal suit that matched well with his handsome face which was much fairer than an average person. One would unwittingly rest one’s gaze on him.
One could not forget his exquisite features with an innate aristocratic quality in just a single glance. This was especially so when one met his incredibly seductive foxy eyes. One need not even look into his eyes, his soul could be sucked away so long he only threw a cursory glance at him!
Zhao Youlin had thought that the saying about troubles would only befall on beautiful women could only refer to women. Little did she know that when a man looked equally as beautiful, he was not inferior to a woman either.
“General Manager, aren’t you going to introduce him to me?” Just then, Xiao Jingyao interrupted Zhao Youlin as she was locking gazes with the young man. Zhao Youlin quickly calmed herself down.
Zhao Youlin sucked in a deep breath before she pointed at the man who had stood up from the couch opposite her and said, “He is Han Yichen. Mr. Han, he is my secretary, Xiao Jingyao.”
“Hi, Mr. Han.” Xiao Jingyao pushed back the glasses that had slid down the bridge of his nose. He took the initiative and stretched out his hand at Han Yichen.
From their conversations just now, Xiao Jingyao had basically learned their identities. He also knew that the man in front of him was the president of Sheng Shi Group that Zhao Youlin had asked him to conduct an investigation on.
However, at that time, his findings had clearly shown that Sheng Shi Group had filed for bankruptcy and its president had gone missing. It did not matter that he had popped out all of a sudden now, but he had also unexpectedly turned out to be the president of Sheng Huang Group.
It looked like this person was much more than what he appeared to be!
