Chapter 422: Chapter 422 Nuannuan, Let’s Elope (3)
"What does Director Xiao plan to do?" Zhong Qiaohui asked, effectively giving Fu Yubo a way out.
Xiao Yebai seemingly surprised, widened his eyes, "Isn’t this what you are here to do? Otherwise, why would I hire you?"
All three people in the room were sweating profusely.
Gu Nuan finally remembered that this guy never cooked at home, he was only responsible for eating. The big white dog always had others at his beck and call with money, never lifting a finger himself.
"Director Xiao—" Zhong Qiaohui had no choice but to put on a bitter face, were the three of them to fend for themselves from now on?
Wasn’t this a critically important battle that could determine his very life or death? How could he not participate? Wasn’t he afraid that they would mess up his fate?
The big white dog seemed not to have heard them talking at all, looking around for water to drink.
Gu Nuan stood up, went over to the water dispenser, filled a plastic cup with water, and brought it to him.
Used to serving him at home, she knew he was the type who expected everything handed to him on a plate and at times, his self-care abilities were practically nonexistent.
Zhong Qiaohui and Fu Yubo had to look down again, feeling desperate, this kind of boss, was he reliable or not? Had the two of them boarded a pirate ship?
Moreover, the teams formed by the four Xiao sisters, as Zhong Qiaohui had observed, had started their planning in a rush right after the Central Hall meeting ended that day.
Not at all like their team, which was still dragging their feet until the next afternoon to start, and on top of that, the boss had said to throw everything at them to manage on their own.
The latest news was that the teams of the second and third sisters had started working through the night without stopping for a single minute. Compared to theirs, the teams of the eldest and the youngest seemed a bit more relaxed. In reality, however, the eldest sister was not even working at Changda; Xiao Shumei had her own company headquarters locally, had hired a troop of people, and claimed she didn’t need to take up their father’s space, preferring to take the work back to her own company. For anyone else, finding out the movements of her team was extremely difficult.
Seeing the eldest sister doing so, the second sister, Xiao Shulan, who also had her own office locally, also took her team and left. Only Chen Jiaming, because of his important position in the company, couldn’t stay in Xiao Shulan’s office all the time; he had to return to Changda every half-day. To others, it seemed like just an excuse; in fact, he was primarily coming back to spy on the movements of his rivals.
Xiao Shuju had become a standard housewife after marrying, unlike the eldest and second sisters who had their own companies. But her husband did.
After much consideration, Lin Jiale had set aside a special area for her in his company, allowing her to bring people over and start working in secret. After all, in a competition involving business rivalry, secrecy was paramount; the less your competitors knew about your situation, the better.
Seeing the situation, it appeared that only the youngest sister, Xiao Shuzhu, and Xiao Yebai, who seemingly had no choice but to work within Changda, were the ones most vulnerable to leaks.
Xiao Yebai just lowered his head to take a sip of water, wetting his throat. Just then, someone knocked twice on the door of the office.
A voice called from outside, "Yebai, it’s me, your fourth sister. Are you and your sister-in-law in?"
Xiao Shuzhu sure had a sweet way of addressing their little couple.
Zhong Qiaohui and Fu Yubo were even more startled. Wasn’t it said that the Xiao Family was fighting over the inheritance to the point of sibling rivalry? What act was the fourth Miss Xiao planning to play out?
Gu Nuan went to open the door; it had to be opened after all, or who knew how Xiao Shuzhu was going to make a scene.
