I just got divorced, and the female CEO is already clinging to me.

Chapter 86 The Short-sighted Old Man

Du Miaowei was stunned. What Ye Cheng said was exactly what she had been thinking. The two were of the same mind.

And that's exactly what she disliked most about Shen Qingrou.

She only dared to keep these words to herself, unlike Ye Cheng who spoke them frankly.

At this moment, her eyes were filled with admiration when she looked at Ye Cheng.

What she didn't expect was that Ye Cheng had already guessed what she was thinking and deliberately said these words.

Shen Qingrou looked at Ye Cheng with a wronged expression and said, "You're really accusing me of that. I never thought of relying on the Shen family. It's just that I can't control my background, and there's nothing I can do about it."

Miaowei has been my assistant for almost two years now. I've always been a hands-off manager, leaving everything to her.

For over a year, she has never made a mistake, which is enough to prove her ability.

That's why I suggested making her the vice president.

It's not about Versailles, it's just my honest opinion.

I've always wanted Miaowei to succeed me, but it seems the time isn't right yet.

These words touched Du Miaowei deeply. She sighed silently in her heart, thinking, "What's the use of saying all this now? There's no going back for me."

Ye Cheng praised, "President Shen truly has a discerning eye."

Since you value Assistant Du's abilities so much, why not see which senior management position in the group is vacant and recommend him to the chairman? Assistant Du will definitely get a promotion.

This was Ye Cheng's way of testing her; he wanted to confirm whether Du Miaowei truly didn't want to leave Shen Qingrou.

If she rejects my kindness, it means she has something to hide.

Shen Qingrou's eyes lit up: "This method is feasible. If you can't become a vice president, you can start as a department head."

Becoming a supervisor meant real power, but faced with this sudden opportunity, Du Miaowei panicked. She hurriedly said, "I only came to Shen's Group because of my relationship with President Shen."

Working alongside President Shen is my dream come true; I don't want to be transferred away from here.

Ye Cheng and Shen Qingrou's eyes met, and they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

"So, do you believe me now?"

"Heh, there was definitely a problem."

Ye Cheng played the emotional card, deliberately saying, "I really envy your friendship."

Shen Qingrou rubbed her temples: "Don't be envious, seeing these documents gives me a headache."

Miaowei, find Assistant Ye something to do; I need to get started.

Du Miaowei said, "I'll take him to familiarize himself with the work environment and get to know the leaders of each department."

Shen Qingrou waved her hand: "Make yourselves at home, just remember to call me when you have lunch."

Du Miaowei pushed Ye Cheng out of the office. As soon as they were outside, Ye Cheng asked, "Did you go to buy medicine?"

Du Miaowei shook her head: "I haven't had time yet, I plan to go after get off work tonight."

Ye Cheng suggested in a low voice, "Now that President Shen is back, your workload has been greatly reduced. Why don't you find an excuse to go out this afternoon and buy the medicine while you're at it?"

Du Miaowei's eyes flickered: "You're already thinking about slacking off as soon as you start work. If President Shen finds out, won't he punish both of us?"

Ye Cheng said, "You can just ask President Shen directly. She favors you so much, she'll definitely agree."

Du Miaowei said seriously, "That won't do. I don't want President Shen to look down on me."

Public matters are public matters, and private matters are private matters. We were high school classmates, that's true, but now we have a superior-subordinate relationship.

She's the chairman's daughter; how could I make such an unreasonable request?

Ye Cheng said, "You're quite principled."

Du Miaowei said, "I can't be greedy for small gains and disappoint President Shen."

Oh, right, there's something I need to remind you of.

The senior management of the Qingyuan Mountain project unanimously agreed that the profit margin was too low and planned to have the chairman abandon the project.

It was the chairman who overruled all objections and persisted.

However, the higher-ups believe that you were the one who encouraged President Shen to develop this project.

Everyone harbors resentment towards you, and if you bump into them, they might say some sarcastic things. I hope you won't take it to heart.

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "I'm not that bad at mental things, don't worry."

As they were talking, a middle-aged man in a suit, who was overweight, walked over accompanied by four staff members.

"Assistant Du, who are you pushing?"

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up when he saw Du Miaowei, and he took the initiative to greet her.

The Shen Group has three beauties: Shen Qingrou, Ling Suqiu, and Du Miaowei.

Shen Qingrou's unparalleled beauty.

Ling Suqiu's graceful beauty.

Du Miaowei's graceful beauty.

Shen Qingrou is the chairman's daughter; no one dares to mess with her.

Ling Suqiu is not only the chairman's wife, but also the group's director, so naturally no one dares to mess with her.

Therefore, the men's eyes were set on Du Miaowei, who had no background and came from a commoner family.

Du Miaowei politely replied, "Hello, President Gan, this is Ye Cheng, the new assistant the company has recruited for President Shen."

Then, she introduced him to Ye Cheng: "Assistant Ye, this is Gan Chenghai, the general manager of the group's real estate business."

The real estate general manager is the person in charge of construction, and the current Qingyuan Mountain project is operating under his supervision.

Ye Cheng also politely extended his right hand to greet her, saying, "Hello, President Gan."

Faced with Ye Cheng's overtures, Gan Chenghai remained unmoved, glancing at Ye Cheng indifferently and sarcastically remarking, "This good-looking face is really something, yet he can become a president's assistant without knowing anything."

Kid, I don't care what your motives are, I advise you to stay away from Qingrou. You're not good enough for her!

Ye Cheng withdrew his outstretched hand, a slight smile playing on his lips: "It seems President Gan has a lot of prejudice against me. Young people's affairs are none of your concern, you old folks."

Mr. Gan said I know nothing about the project, which suggests I'm not very satisfied with the Qingyuan Mountain project. I wonder what advice Mr. Gan might have.

Gan Chenghai snorted coldly: "Projects are all about profit. Only projects with considerable profits are good projects."

The Qingyuan Mountain project was clearly a thankless and laborious undertaking, and the Chen family disdained to compete for it.

Only a clueless idiot like you, who knows nothing and only makes assumptions, would consider such a project a treasure, given how much profit a remote, impoverished area could possibly generate.

"The government isn't providing any funding; it's all up to the Shen family. When will they ever be able to recoup those hundreds of millions!"

Ye Cheng smiled slightly: "I'm quite puzzled. How did someone as short-sighted as you manage to become the general manager?"

Gan Chenghai was furious and shouted, "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"

Ye Cheng said without fear: "I say you are short-sighted, you can only see the immediate benefits, but you don't know what the core of an entrepreneur is. You are not worthy of sitting in the position of general manager."

Gan Chenghai took a step forward and swung his fist at Ye Cheng.

They'd start fighting without a second thought, without uttering a single word.

Ye Cheng reached out and caught Gan Chenghai's fist steadily: "You're so old, yet you still have such a temper. Did you suffer some humiliation at home and have nowhere to vent your anger, so you came here to seek validation?"

Gan Chenghai pulled back with all his might, only to find to his horror that his hand seemed to be stuck in cement, unable to move at all.

"Let go!" Gan Chenghai shouted, pulling hard backwards, when suddenly his body leaned back and he landed on his bottom.
