Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Chapter 451 Heartless in a CEO Novel (31)

"Secretary Xia, you probably don't know this yet?"

"Just kidding, how could they not have their own sources of information?"

"Heh..." Xia Youmi remained unfazed by the lukewarm remarks from An Yubei and Luo Yu.

now,

The entire secretariat consisted of only nine people, making for a very strange meeting.

When Jin Shunmei resigned, Xiao Feng followed suit. Now that she's back in her original department, she's not getting any favors. Moreover, all the evidence points to her involvement, so no one will dare to give her a second job.

Furthermore, Liu Shao voluntarily resigned and returned to his family. His interest was only half-learning and half-playing; if no one had exposed him, he might have happily coasted through his days at his post. But Jin Shunmei taking away his achievements was intolerable.

We should go back as soon as possible and encrypt what needs to be encrypted, and put it into use as soon as possible. No matter how busy we are, we won't be able to reach the core circle.

in this way,

An Yubei and the others retained two subordinates each, but Qiu Ling and Xi Yangxi were both freed up. Logically, they should have joined the ranks of another senior, Xia Youmi.

But she wasn't there during the most intense part, and Shao Yunshen didn't seem to have any intention of deciding who would lead whom.

They simply changed Qiu Ling's internal channels to be consistent with Xi Yangxi's, eliminating the need for upper-level review when receiving tasks. And it seems they were already quite proficient in this model, handling it flawlessly both in its implementation and in its completion.

If Xia Youmi were to enter the fray and take them in at this point, she would probably be unwilling.

However, it must be admitted that the other party is very capable. If one were under her supervision, one would not only have more opportunities to learn, but would also have a strong support when facing the other four newcomers.

Just as the two were caught in a dilemma, Xia Youmi returned but didn't mention anything about the newcomers.

She had been in meetings with people from several other departments within the group, and after reaching a conclusion, she even brought Shao Yunshen in to discuss it. It seemed that some major plan had been decided. The secretariat was unaware of the details, but it appeared that the project leader had fallen to Secretary Xia.

Her frequency and pace of coming and going were completely different from the secretary's, and she was beginning to gain the limelight of a second Manager Kim.

This made it impossible for the others to communicate properly with Xia Youmi, regarding power division, who belonged to whom, and so on. It all seemed like they were just being presumptuous, not even on the same level, and Xia Youmi's usual cold demeanor felt like she was being mocked.

Xia Youmi didn't say anything; it was all just her imagination.

But those who were left out, or rather those surrounded by the secretaries, were all getting angry at her strutting around. Unconsciously, eight of them resonated with each other, and a great sense of crisis came over them.

She even inexplicably empathized with Kim Soon-mi, who had always been at odds with her.

It seems like Xia Youmi is targeting them, which is better than not targeting them at all!

This sense of bewilderment and powerlessness at being left far behind prevented internal strife from taking hold, with everyone focused on the group's announcements, waiting for the official disclosure of the action.

After waiting in vain... several weeks passed, and when Xia Youmi returned to the secretary's office meeting, her resentment was almost showing.

That's why the senior group, who were usually easy to talk to and had resolved their conflicts a few times, took the lead in launching a veiled attack.

"Senior Xia!"

"Hello." Ignoring the two colleagues who were targeting her, Xia Youmi greeted them naturally.

The main seat in the conference room was empty. An Yubei and Luo Yu were sitting at the head of the table on either side, and a seat was left empty on each side for Xia Youmi to sit down.

Next up were the new recruits they each brought, and after a long stretch of empty seats came Qiu Ling and Xi Yangxi.

It seems that any environment is accustomed to electing leaders.

The three senior secretaries seemed to have a balance, but since none of them could directly work with Shao Yunshen, it was necessary to clarify who should naturally become the leader.

However, Xia Youmi had anticipated this situation before the meeting, and she walked to the last position without stopping.

That was the seat opposite Shao Yunshen's main table; there was never a chair there, symbolizing competition and opposition.

They had originally wanted to see if she would submit to anyone or directly reveal her ambition by taking the first seat and waiting to be besieged, but Xia Youmi's actions left the other two speechless.

And coincidentally, Qiu Ling and Xi Yangxi, who were being ostracized, were closest to Xia Youmi. The atmosphere froze for a moment, but some reacted quickly. Xi Yangxi was the first to smile, stand up, and bow, saying, "Greetings, senior."

Soon after, Qiu Ling also chimed in, "Senior Xia, I am Qiu Ling."

This re-introduction brought the other six people back to their senses. In this way, even if Xia Youmi did not accept Qiu Ling, this person would not be able to integrate into the other people's circle, and would be completely cut off.

"Hello, I am Xia Youmi."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Ling was somewhat surprised, happy, and also felt a sense of familiarity that Xia Youmi couldn't quite grasp. She hadn't felt this way when she first entered Shenta; could it be... that Xi Yangxi said something?

The meeting proceeded quickly, and before he could think things through, Shao Yunshen entered with his ever-present assistant. He glanced in Xia Youmi's direction, nodded, and then sat down in the center.

The purpose of the meeting was to dissolve the superior-subordinate relationship.

It is clear that this is merely a mentorship program, a transitional phase, far from being at a level where experienced staff can directly control the achievements of new recruits.

Another set of secretarial office system tests and learning updates are being launched, which are divided into five half-zones for integration.

This time,

Not to mention the fates of Qiu Ling and Xi Yangxi, which were of utmost concern to everyone else, even the other four no longer had superiors. In other words, the newcomers and their seniors were on equal footing, only in a hierarchical order, with no orders to obey.

The four people other than Qiu Ling were not without ambition, but they did not want to offend the three seniors before they had established themselves.

Coupled with simple incentives, this combination of tactics demoralized the team.

Shao Yunshen looked at everyone, savoring their different expressions with great interest, but avoided meeting Xia Youmi's gaze, afraid of ruining his good mood.

Ultimately, the focus shifted to Qiu Ling and Xi Yangxi, who were talking nearby. This pair of childhood sweethearts had originally intended to become substitutes.

At least we need to alleviate the icy pain we felt when we bit into Xia Youmi.

But, it seems a bit disappointing.

Aside from the passionate moments when the two of them vented their anger and supported each other as they complained about Kim Soon-mi to him, which pleased him, their interactions after they had eliminated their biggest threat all seemed to indicate mutual affection but no interest from the other.

It made him somewhat uninterested.

Shao Yunshen didn't want to change the plans he had made, so he could only let the rumors spread.

The truth is, another figure exudes a continuous stream of value, making it difficult for a businessman to simply use him as a shield. It's not worth scare away a potential benefactor by foregoing a wealth of fame and profit.

He then took the opportunity to let Xia Youmi participate in the project's transformation, no longer focusing on the secretariat.

Fortunately, the timing was just right. After losing one target, they gave him a replacement. Moreover, the other party was more stubborn and had a background that made him easier to manipulate. In the eyes of these heartless second-generation rich kids, playing with the latter would be even more surprising.

After the meeting, Xia Youmi moved out of the office and, together with a group of new people she had assembled, set up a project team in a more private space. Although it was a temporary department at the moment, as long as the benefits were visible, it could become a new chapter.

Everyone was busy with their own things, but the gossip never stopped.

In Luo Yu and An Yubei's eyes, Xia Youmi had voluntarily stepped down, so the competition for the leadership position was now only between the two of them. However, on the day of the meeting, in order to embarrass Xia Youmi, An Yubei disregarded the surroundings and allowed Luo Yu to occupy the more prestigious seat on the left.

Who knows,

Later, the default order was established, and everyone regarded Luo Yu as the first person.

This angered An Yubei, who then orchestrated Luo Yu's elimination. The most crucial, or decisive, statement she made was that Luo Yu was an undercover agent.

Although her methods of extorting secrets were not sophisticated, she did leak Shenta's core model, not to mention the patent involvement involved.

A chaotic battle ensued.

While An Yubei was overjoyed, she suddenly realized that Shao Yunshen had taken Qiu Ling on several business trips alone.

New rumors suggest that infighting among senior members is pointless.

The CEO clearly wants to cultivate his own personal secretary; when the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Many people have seen that during meetings with business partners, Shao Yunshen has stood up for Secretary Qiu Ling countless times.

It is said that Secretary Qiu will never discuss cooperation with anyone he dislikes.

Extreme beauty is accompanied by extreme breakdown. Qiu Ling is at the center of attention, yet she still has to complete countless tasks. Whether it's An Yubei or her assistant's deliberate刁难 (difficulties/challenges), it's a significant blow to a young person who has just graduated.

Amidst the turmoil, even childhood sweethearts seemed unreliable, and he had his own ideas.

It could be a man's pride and jealousy, or his ambition.

Anyway,

Qiu Lingqiu went to Xia Youmi's place.

She tried to find redemption in this person with whom she had little contact, but who she had heard countless times about how powerful she was, and who had been praised by three powerful men.

Unfortunately, Xia Youmi wouldn't help her.
