Chapter 257: Chapter 257 Father and Son (7)

When Kang Junjia, Director Han, and Chen Jiaming, who had just walked through the door, heard those words, each felt an unbearable feeling in their hearts.

Look, what is this if not a spoiled child?

What child talks to their dad like this? Yet, Xiao Jianming seemed to quite enjoy the feeling of being criticized by his own son.

Sitting on the guest sofa, Kang Junjia pretended to lift the lid of the teacup to drink, glancing sideways as if he’d just noticed Chen Jiaming walking in and called out, "Has Director Chen returned?"

Because of this, the attention in the room shifted from Xiao Yebai teasing Jian Lan and his father, back to Chen Jiaming.

Xiao Jianming turned his head as if he had just discovered Chen Jiaming entering his office.

To tell the truth, having these two young men standing in his office really made the place suddenly feel considerably more vibrant.

Chen Jiaming’s absolutely proper demeanor, tied with Xiao Yebai’s unrestrained attitude, both were visually appealing young talents in their own ways.

In the boardroom, discussions about these two men never ceased for a moment.

After Xiao Jianming’s eyebrows twitched a couple of times, he first said to his son who was teasing Jian Lan, "Sit next to your sister’s father-in-law."

Xiao Yebai certainly wouldn’t abide by that, casually sitting down on the sofa diagonally across from Director Han, placing one person between himself and Kang Junjia, saying, "I heard sister’s husband was hospitalized, I even sent a bouquet of flowers last time, not sure if my brother-in-law received them?"

The thought of the basket of Qingming flowers his son had received made Kang Junjia grimace every time he remembered it. It wasn’t out of anger, but wondering how much this reckless spendthrift might know about their affairs.

How could a man only known for squandering family wealth know their secrets?

"Cough, cough." After coughing twice, Kang Junjia said, "Your brother-in-law didn’t receive your flowers, but he’s gone home to rest, you don’t need to send any more."

"Ah? He didn’t receive them? How embarrassing! Being discharged doesn’t mean he’s recovered," Xiao Yebai nodded like a pecking chick, "Later, I’ll ask who delivered the flowers and why they weren’t delivered. I’ll send another bouquet later."

Kang Junjia’s face instantly flashed a shade of green.

Xiao Yebai then crossed his legs, indicating with a look towards his father, see, I am actually very considerate towards my sister’s family; a model of proper etiquette.

Xiao Jianming seemingly unaware of the play his son was putting on, nodded and said, "Since you care about your sister’s family, remember to bring another basket of fruit next time."

"Don’t worry, Dad," Xiao Yebai agreed readily.

Kang Junjia felt his eyelids twitch uncontrollably, wondering if this profligate son would next take a leaf out of the Snow White’s stepmother’s book and send a basket of poisoned apples to his son.

Finally, the topic returned to Chen Jiaming, the person who should have been the main character in this meeting.

In fact, ever since he entered the office, Chen Jiaming had been puzzled, how, in any scenario involving Xiao Yebai, it became a show centered around Xiao Yebai,

even though today’s topic was unrelated to Xiao Yebai.

"Director Chen—" Xiao Jianming slowly started the official discussion.

With a composed stance, Chen Jiaming stood firm and replied, "Regarding the unexpected incident last night, I plan to write a formal report to be submitted to the chairman and the board of directors. However, the investigation results from the police have not yet been released."

"Police matters follow police protocols. I’ve already discussed this over the phone with the leaders at the local police department, they will handle everything impartially. The assailant who harmed our Changda employee will definitely be penalized by the law," Xiao Jianming spoke each word with a stern and serious tone.
