“Manager Pei, morning!”

“Mhm, morning . ”
“Good morning, Manager Pei!”
“Morning!”
As Pei Ge walked along the corridor to her office, she greeted this company’s employees with a smile .
Bang!
She closed the door and looked at the warm sunlight streaming in and illuminating the office, yet her heart did not feel its warmth .
She sat in front of her desk and, like yesterday, seriously studied the company’s past records .
“What kind of background do you think our new manager has?”
“Who knows? Maybe, she has a powerful background, or else she won’t be our manager now! The company even arranged such a nice house for her . ”
“Rubbish! If she has a powerful background, she won’t be some general manager here . Do you think that our company is a good place to be at?”
“That’s right . Our company’s profits are getting worse and worse, and we are even in the red this year . We’re on the brink of bankruptcy . If she really has a powerful background, will she still be here as a general manager?”

“I suspect that she had offended someone and got ‘exiled’ to this nearly bankrupt company . They made it seem as if she got promoted when, in fact, she got demoted . ”
“I don’t think so . ”
“Hmph! Just keep observing . Our company might even fold this year . By then, this manager will likely flop over, too!”
Upon stepping out of her office, she coincidentally heard this group of women’s mutterings . A helpless smile appeared on her lips .
Seems that my situation is a public secret to this whole company .
“Cough!” She lightly coughed just as this group of women moved to continue their gossip .
“Ah!”
This crowd huddling together to gossip got a fright . Out of guilt, they did not dare to meet her eyes . As they were thin-skinned, their already red faces reddened further .
In that moment, the atmosphere in this small division became extremely awkward .
“Where is Wu Yongkang?” She acted as if she had not heard their conversation and just popped this question with a light smile .
“Bro-Brother Wu went on an errand,” one of the girls timidly replied .
“An errand?” She frowned . “What errand is he running?”

“I don’t know . ” The girl shook her head .
“Then, how did you know he had gone on an errand?”
“I-I…”
The girl was clearly frightened as she stuttered for a long time but still could not give a proper answer .
She helplessly sighed at this .
“Give him a call and tell him to return now . No matter what he’s doing, tell him to come back at once . ”
Finishing her order, she returned to her office .
Despite not being a company decision-maker, after staying here for a few days, she could still tell that this company was rotten all the way to the core .
Actually, the most pressing and biggest problem was not the bad reputation of the company’s past projects but its troublesome employees, instead .
The employees here were all very lax . They came to work every day, only to wait for quitting time . No one was motivated or proactive in their work .
This type of employees took up 80% of the company’s population . The remaining 20% comprised the management-level employees who simply wanted to get something good out of the company by finding loopholes in the system .
How was she supposed to save this company, which was rotten to its core and had such employees?

“Sigh…” She let out a sigh full of fatigue .
Ji Ziming’s father had truly given her a very hard case to handle…
While she was considering the company’s situation and flipping through the employee records, someone knocked on her office door .
Knock, knock, knock!
She promptly put down the records in her hands and answered, “Enter . ”
“Manager Pei, I heard that you were looking for me?” Wu Yongkang walked inside . “Did you have something for me?”
Watching the assistant approach her with a smile, she casually asked, “Wu Yongkang, how long have you been an employee of Jiaheng Real Estate?”
“Ah?” Wu Yongkang was taken aback by her question . “I think I’ve been working here for five or six years? I’ve been here for so long that I can’t really recall . ”
“So that means you are a tenured employee…” She looked at him devoid of emotion . “You’ve been at Jiaheng for so long and seen it’s rise and fall . Logically, you should feel a sentimental attachment to this company . ”
“Yes, this is like my second home . ” He nodded and smiled .
“Then, is this how you spoil and damage your house?” She looked at him expressionlessly, helplessness flashing past her eyes .
“Ah? Manager Pei, what are you talking about?” He looked at her in confusion .
“Wu Yongkang, you know very well what I’m talking about . Although I am but a small manager and can’t know everyone’s movements, as my secretary, I still understand you enough!” She smashed the documents she had been reading just then on her desk .
A bang resounded in this not-so-spacious general manager’s office . The air stilled and turned cold at once .
He was totally spooked by the angry shout of this friendly and usually calm woman .
“Although I’m new here, I am no fool! Tell me yourself how long you have been around the company ever since I came?!”
She looked coldly at him . “Surprisingly, an assistant like you is even busier than me, who is the general manager . ”
Her dark and clear eyes were currently icy . Faced with such a gaze, he could not help but shiver . How could he possibly even say the lies he had prepared?
He swallowed all these lies back into his stomach .
“Since I was sent here to take charge of this company, I will properly do my part as a general manager . ”
Her expression slowly returned to normal . Although she still did not smile, it was not as cold as before .
“I hope you are clear on how and what you should do in the future . After all, I don’t want to be raising a bunch of people who only know how to take advantage of the company!”
