Chapter 998: Chapter 0998: Su Xiaomin’s Rooftop Private Talk

Having just broken through in cultivation, Ye Qiu felt completely different from before, with his senses—eyes, ears, nose—becoming much sharper.

Ye Qiu saw the moonlight outside the window but did not continue cultivating; he lay down and slept soundly.

When he woke up, it was already past eight in the morning.

Remembering Xia Lan and the Eiffel Chain Hotel’s matters, Ye Qiu hurriedly got up, washed up, put on clothes, and went downstairs, only to find that his sister and parents were not there; they must have gone early to the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant side again.

After eating the breakfast his sister and parents made, Ye Qiu drove to the Eiffel Chain Hotel building.

Arriving at the underground parking garage of the building, he parked the car and took the elevator up to the entrance of the CEO’s office.

As he was knocking, it was the female secretary Bai Mei who opened the door.

"Mr. Ye, you’re here."

Ye Qiu entered inside, only to see Bai Mei and Su Xiaomin there.

Currently, Xia Lan and Luo Fei were nowhere to be seen.

"Mr. Ye, President Xia is in the conference room meeting with the new management team."

This matter was already agreed upon between Ye Qiu and Xia Lan last night.

Currently, Xia Lan should be meeting various new major management teams in the CEO’s office.

However, Ye Qiu noticed that Su Xiaomin seemed to be in a somewhat bad mood, occasionally sneaking glances at Ye Qiu.

"Dr. Ye, can I talk to you alone?"

Su Xiaomin said.

"About what?"

Seeing Bai Mei there, Su Xiaomin didn’t say anything.

"Okay."

As Su Xiaomin went out, Ye Qiu followed her.

Su Xiaomin was now wearing a black business suit, looking very professional, but she did not go anywhere specific; instead, she led Ye Qiu to the top of the tallest building.

Upon reaching the rooftop, Su Xiaomin moved closer to Ye Qiu; he could smell the perfume she wore, which was neither overwhelming nor unpleasant.

Su Xiaomin was also wearing black-framed glasses, her eyes big, looking at Ye Qiu and appearing very innocent.

"Dr. Ye, you don’t trust me?"

Su Xiaomin already knew that Xia Lan was soon going to fire her as secretary. Although she wasn’t being asked to leave the hotel altogether, she was likely being transferred to another department.

Having many management members resign simultaneously, she was also worried about this issue.

"Why should I trust you?"

The first time Li Fei got into trouble, she had leaked information to those five shareholders early, leading Ye Qiu to suspect this Secretary Su.

However, Ye Qiu knew back then that Xia Lan couldn’t temporarily part with Su Xiaomin, as the company still needed her help with many affairs.

"I know, about many management resignations this time, I should have informed President Xia in advance as the female secretary, but I did not, because I hadn’t anticipated such."

Su Xiaomin said.

Ye Qiu instead looked toward the distant building, standing on the rooftop; Ye Qiu found the wind here to be very strong.

Especially now, as it was entering the Mid-Autumn season, Ye Qiu began to feel a chill.

Perhaps it was nearing autumn.

Even though it was now daytime morning, the temperature compared to before was quite different.

"Dr. Ye, please believe me one more time!"

Su Xiaomin exclaimed.

"Why?"

"Because President Xia temporarily can’t do without me, many company affairs still rely on me, and aren’t you afraid I’ll do like those managers and take the company’s data elsewhere?"

Su Xiaomin spoke, with a trace of threat implied.

Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid at all.

The most crucial data, the hotel’s platinum customer information, had already been taken; now, what’s left?

At most, it might be cooperation data between the hotel group and other clients, but as far as Ye Qiu was concerned, he wasn’t worried at all.

Seeing Ye Qiu’s expression didn’t change, Su Xiaomin wanted to say more, but Ye Qiu whispered something in her ear.

Su Xiaomin was instantly dumbfounded, standing there somewhat in disbelief.

She thought Ye Qiu was merely exceptional at medical skills, but she didn’t know about Ye Qiu’s background.

Seeing Ye Qiu about to leave, Su Xiaomin hurriedly grabbed Ye Qiu’s hand, looked at him, and pleaded, "Dr. Ye, please give me another chance."

"That’s Miss Xia’s matter; telling me is useless."

Su Xiaomin naturally did not believe him.

She knew that now everything in the Eiffel Hotel Chain Group was controlled by the young man in front of her, although it seemed unrelated to Ye Qiu.

However, after Li Fei’s incident, Xia Lan sought Ye Qiu’s assistance, and the hotel’s major and minor affairs were decided by her.

Ye Qiu was going down, and Su Xiaomin could only follow.

Given such a big mistake this time, even if irrelevant to Su Xiaomin, Ye Qiu knew he could no longer let Su Xiaomin stay by Xia Lan’s side.

What he needed was not just a competent female secretary, but a highly loyal one.

This was most important; otherwise, if something like this happened again, it would be even more troublesome.

Moreover, in such a situation, as the secretary, Su Xiaomin should have informed either him or Xia Lan earlier; then it wouldn’t be like it is now.

Although Su Xiaomin hadn’t quit like the other management members, Ye Qiu felt she was still wavering, unsure whose side to choose.

Taking the elevator down, with Ye Qiu walking in front, and Su Xiaomin trailing with her head down behind, Ye Qiu didn’t need to care what the other was doing, nor did Su Xiaomin dare act as she did before.

When Ye Qiu told her something earlier, Su Xiaomin realized the young man in front of her wasn’t as simple as Feng Zhiqiang or what the Ning Family imagined.

Returning to the CEO’s office, Xia Lan was still meeting with the new management in the conference room.

When Ye Qiu sat down, Bai Mei poured him a glass of water.

...

Around eleven o’clock in the morning, when Xia Lan returned to the office, a confidence not present yesterday was evident on her face.

Previously meeting with new management of various departments convinced her that even if the old batch left, the new ones replacing them would make management easier; she had more confidence in leading these managers for better hotel group development.

"Secretary Su, from now on your job will be replaced by Bai Mei, and you’re transferred to the Advertising Department as Deputy Director."

From CEO secretary to Deputy Director in a department would be considered a promotion by many, but only Su Xiaomin knew it was because Xia Lan and Ye Qiu no longer trusted her, so she was moved to the Advertising Department.

Su Xiaomin said nothing; she understood she had no choice since Ye Qiu had already made it clear earlier on the rooftop.

After Su Xiaomin and Bai Mei handed over the work, Su Xiaomin packed her books and other items from the CEO’s office and naturally moved them to the Advertising Department’s Deputy Director’s office.
