Chapter 748 Xu Ji came to Hua and was punished for her kindness
"President Xu, Huaguo Lenghai has arrived!"
"Hmm, is this the Cold Sea? Wow, it's not much different from the capital of South Korea!"
"Haha, China's economy has always been developing very rapidly, and Lenghai is its economic center, so naturally the withdrawal is more direct..."
"Well, where's Li Shuo? Does he know I'm in Lenghai?"
"You came in a hurry. I only found out about you when I stopped you at the airport. So, our boss probably won't know about your visit to China until tomorrow morning..."
"Oh? Really? Before, I only heard Li Shuo bragging about how huge his Shuoguo Group was and how strong its business capabilities were. How come the boss took so long to find out about something as trivial as my coming here?"
"Forehead……"
At around 1 a.m., Xu Ji and her group got off the plane and walked out of the airport, chatting as they went... well, it wasn't really chatting, because Han Enqing was always bending over and leaning sideways, answering Xu Ji's questions in a very awkward manner!
Xu Ji is not a little girl, but the president of the top law firm in South Korea. Before she met Li Shuo, she had been lonely for many years. As everyone knows, it is not a big deal if the fields have been empty all the time, but the only thing is to be afraid of being suddenly abandoned after being cultivated. That feeling is simply torture!
Just at this moment, the news of the Huahan singing festival came back, especially the appearance of "X". Xu Ji took a look and thought, isn't this her own man? When did he become an actor?
Unlike ordinary people, Xu Ji has always opposed her adopted daughter Xu Xian going to SM company to be a trainee. She once severed the mother-daughter relationship. It was not until Xu Xian debuted and the Beautiful Legs Era became a top idol group that the relationship between the two eased slightly, but they only contacted each other 1 or 2 times a year.
Because of this incident, Xu Ji began to pay attention to SN Entertainment. Using her own methods, she quickly connected with Han Enqing from the secretary's office. Then she got to know Han Dazhi, Qiu Cixian and others. The more she learned about these people, the more confused Xu Ji became: in her eyes, Li Shuo was not only the company boss, but also a talented writer, and even an actor and singer...
Of course, the treatment of her own man and her adopted daughter Xu Xian is different. Although Li Shuo is an actor, it is just a side job for him, just for fun. When Xu Ji thought that Li Shuo would have the moment to stand on the stage, her heart was overwhelmed with emotion and she could hardly control herself!
It just so happened that she learned the news from SN Entertainment that Qiu Xiuyan was going back to China to do publicity and promotion. Since that was the case, Xu Ji naturally followed her as soon as possible!
After everyone left the airport, two Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicles soon drove over to pick them up. Xu Ji looked at Qiu Cixian and her group, who were far away from her and said, "Hey, you guys take that car..."
After giving the order, he took Han Enqing into the car. When the Mercedes-Benz business car started, Xu Ji asked again:
"Thank you, where is Qiu Cixian's car going?"
“Of course it’s a hotel”
"I mean, she wouldn't have run into Li Shuo before me, right?"
"Forehead"
Han Enqing was speechless, mainly because she didn't know how to explain to Xu Ji: Instead of worrying about this, you should worry about whether you can meet Li Shuo when you come here this time!
"What? Did I say something wrong?" Seeing her embarrassed face, Xu Ji raised her eyebrows and asked.
Han Enqing shook her head and smiled bitterly. She glanced at the driver in the front row and whispered to Xu Ji in South Korean, "Chairman Xu, you may have a very high status in our country, and you are also very popular with the boss. But this is the boss's homeland. I'm sure you can guess that the boss has women here, and more than one..."
"I stopped you from coming to China simply because I didn't want you to be in an awkward or embarrassing situation... Qiu Cixian came here to work. According to our secretariat's estimates, she probably won't have a chance to meet the boss until all her work is completed..."
The implication is: It is so difficult for Qiu Cixian to meet Li Shuo, President Xu, you may be better, but how much better can you be?
Xu Ji blinked and nodded with a smile: "Okay, thank you for your kindness. In fact, I have been mentally prepared for this a long time ago."
After all, Li Shuo is a young chaebol. Just look at the chaebols in South Korea and you will know how rare and precious such men are. Xu Ji is naturally mentally prepared. In fact, she rushed to China because she wanted to hold on to this super rare creature!
"You still don't understand what I mean... But forget it, there's too much for me to tell you, and many things require you to experience them yourself before you can understand them..."
As they were talking, the Mercedes-Benz business car had arrived at the hotel. After Han Enqing arranged for Xu Ji, she rushed to Shuoguo Manor overnight: As the head of the secretariat in South Korea, she was qualified to see Li Shuo immediately. Moreover, she was a great dereliction of duty by allowing Xu Ji to come this time. Naturally, she had to report it clearly to Li Shuo in person, and even accept punishment!
Despite this, it was already 3 a.m. when Han Enqing arrived at the manor. Even Li Shuo, who had a chaotic life, had already fallen asleep...
Yuan Ke and Zhang Yuyan received her, and then held an internal meeting of the secretariat in the study.
The head of the secretariat, Wei Shuting, appeared on the LCD screen and asked:
“Enqing, what’s wrong with you? You can’t even control an old woman in your jurisdiction?”
Han Enqing said timidly, "Boss Wei, you know that South Korea's situation is special. It's abroad, and our influence there is relatively small. How can the secretariat possibly control someone as powerful as Xu Ji?"
"We all understand your difficulties, but as for kindness, we in the secretariat don't simply rely on our background, influence, and clever tactics to get things done..."
Feng Linlin, on another screen, commented, "Because we're the boss's secretaries, we're the mistresses of the boss's women. In name, they're the mistresses, but in reality, most of them have to follow our lead. Especially those women who have no financial resources and are completely dependent on the boss. They don't dare to offend the secretariat..."
Hearing this, Wei Shuting added: "Of course we won't use this convenience to threaten or attack the mistresses, but we can use it to complete our work more easily!"
Zhang Yuyan nodded and said, "That's right. In my opinion, if we can understand Xu Ji's character earlier, and use words like 'You don't want the boss to know you're such an impatient woman' to coerce her from the side, it might be very effective!"
Han Enqing was stunned by what the seniors in the secretariat said. Originally, because she was South Korean, she was temporarily promoted to be the South Korea head of the secretariat. Later, although she received online training from Wei Shuting, she still lacked work experience. Now that the seniors were making up for it, she suddenly realized that this is how the secretariat works!
Next, some even more "terrible" things washed away Han Enqing's three views.
For example, Wei Shuting said, "Bosses actually have quite a few women in South Korea. You can definitely stir up their sense of competition. Remember, the secretarial office only serves the boss. Do whatever makes the boss feel comfortable. Sometimes competition among women is a good thing!"
Feng Linlin smiled and said, "It's competition, not conflict. We need to maintain the competitive feeling between them, but don't intensify it. Only in this situation will we be more 'valuable' to these mistresses. Enqing, take your South Korea as an example. From the information I've read, Xu Ji's power isn't the greatest. There's also the three-star Crown Princess Lin Shiya and the SK Princess. If you can sow discord between them and then cleverly utilize the power of these women, I believe that the Shuoguo Secretariat will become a very powerful organization in South Korea!"
Zhang Yuyan, who was good at serving Li Shuo, patted her chest and sighed with lingering fear:
"Wow, you guys really are... We're all women, so why resort to such drastic measures..."
Yuan Ke curled her lips and said, "It's precisely because we are all women that we understand each other..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere suddenly turned cold from being warm. Wei Shuting briefly explained a few words to Han Enqing and then ended the online meeting in the early morning.
Han Enqing savored Yuan Ke's final words, feeling they held a profound meaning: the secretariat could exploit the people outside its walls, but what about those within? Everyone was naturally fascinated by and adored Li Shuo, and precisely because of this, they were likely even more influenced by their emotions.
For example, if Li Shuo gets tired of someone, what will the other people in the secretariat do?
When he thought of this, Han Enqing felt a chill, and felt that the secretariat had even greater competitive pressure than the fish pond that Li Shuo kept outside!
That night, Han Enqing couldn't sleep well. Firstly, she felt a great deal of pressure on her shoulders, and secondly, she had to adjust to the time difference and work and rest schedule. South Korea and China are only one time zone apart, which is actually equivalent to no difference. However, Han Enqing arrived in China in the early morning last night, which meant that her day and night were reversed.
However, it was precisely because of this that she was able to appear in front of Li Shuo at 6 o'clock in the morning...
The man who had been busy with the big star all night was now running around the flower beds of the Fruit Manor. Seeing her, he couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise, "A favor? It came so quickly?"
Upon hearing this, Han Enqing knew that although Boss knew about Xu Ji's arrival, he probably hadn't paid any attention to it at all...
"Yes, I'm here to bring Miss Qiu Cixian back. Also, there's President Xu Ji..."
"Let's talk after I finish running. You should organize your words first."
Li Shuo waved his hand and continued running. The main reason was that he had not figured out how to deal with Xu Ji and Han Enqing.
Secretary Han Enqing must be punished for making a mistake, but this mistake was actually a shortcoming caused by the rapid development of the secretariat. It is not a big deal. It is not good to punish too harshly, but not to punish is not good either. After all, the secretariat is a collective, an organization. Any organization with many people must have clear rewards and punishments!
While Li Shuo was thinking, Han Enqing was jogging beside him. Although she was not very old, because of her poor family background, she had been running back and forth between the two countries with Han Dazhi since she graduated from high school. Therefore, she knew what attitude she should show when making mistakes, and she also had good physical strength to show this attitude.
Li Shuo didn't care much at first, but when he saw that Han Enqing could actually keep up with his jogging pace, he couldn't help but turn around and praised her with a "very good".
The background is the morning sun, the sweat pouring down his face as he runs, and the bulging muscles revealed by his tights. Finally, there is that brilliant smile and the magnetic sound of praise...
At this moment, Han Enqing's face turned red and she immediately stopped with her legs clamped together.
"Huh? What's wrong?"
As a result, Li Shuo also stopped when he saw this.
"No, it's just that you look so... um... well... mainly because I haven't seen you in a long time..."
Han Enqing was hesitant, but Li Shuo saw through her demeanor at a glance. He was originally worried about not having any "punishment methods" when suddenly an idea struck him. He immediately frowned and scolded:
"You're the head of the South Korean secretariat, and look at what you've become! If you have something to say, just say it right in front of me. Why are you being so timid? Are you a little girl just beginning to fall in love?"
"no!"
Han Enqing quickly shouted, "Boss, I like you, I long for you so much..."
“Yeah, but you made a mistake this time by letting Xu Ji slip through!”
Li Shuo glanced at the surroundings and pointed to the natural lawn nearby. "Now, kneel down and make amends for your mistake..."
Han Enqing instinctively knelt down and looked up blankly. It wasn't until she saw Li Shuo approaching that she realized something. At that moment, she almost laughed out loud, but then she quickly held her breath and greeted him with her little mouth...
The punishment inflicted on Han Enqing on the lawn was just an appetizer. After Li Shuo finished his morning exercises and cleaned up, he returned to the small room in the side hall of the manor that belonged to the secretaries. He looked at Yuan Ke and Han Enqing beside him and said,
"Han Enqing, you've been extremely derelict in your duty this time. I've decided to temporarily remove you from your position as the head of the South Korean secretariat and demote you to deputy head of the secretariat. Go back to South Korea first and straighten out your relationships there. Otherwise, you won't be allowed to set foot in China again!"
"Yes"
This punishment was actually very severe. After all, not being able to set foot in China meant not being able to see Li Shuo. This was a huge torture for Han Enqing, who had just fallen in love and whose heart was completely devoted to Li Shuo.
"Before you leave, go with Yuan Ke to settle Xu Ji down! Since she's here, I naturally won't send her away by force, but I don't have much time, so I can only go over to accompany her once or twice occasionally. Well, the rest of the time, you guys manage it well, understand?"
"Yes"
"Alright, Enqing, go and rest. Yuan Ke stay..."
In fact, Li Shuo was still very happy about Xu Ji's arrival. After all, Xu Ji had Jin Yaner and Xu Xian behind her, but he couldn't break the rules in front of other fish.
Similarly, Li Shuo did not disclose his plans. Since Mango TV sent people to negotiate, his personal affairs were considered over, but the online war of words caused by "X" continued. Even after Han Er and Guo Laosi joined the war and Wei Ni released the song "Unforgivable", the popularity of "X" increased strangely!
At the same time, with Qiu Cixian's arrival, "The Temptation of Returning Home" will also start its promotion and release, and there will be a lot of things to do later...
"Where is Qiu Cixian?"
"Boss, she's in the hotel."
"Which hotel should she stay in? Remember, she's the face of Shuoguo Culture for the next 1-2 years. Bring her to Shuoguo Manor!"
"Yes"
