Inheritance of Two Trillion
Chapter 1023: Coming with a Sword

Chapter 1023: Chapter 1023: Coming with a Sword

Bai Xiaosheng sat at the window of the café, gazing at the distant Zhongjing Media Tower.

It had only been a year and a few months since he left, not such a long time.

Returning, he found everything in complete disarray.

With an expressionless face, Bai Xiaosheng picked up his coffee cup and took a small sip.

The taste was astringent. It slaughtered his taste buds.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced at his cup; he hadn’t ordered black coffee, yet it was extremely hard to drink!

Indeed, mood determined flavor.

Putting down the cup, Bai Xiaosheng looked at the reflection of himself on the glass window, his complexion truly unsightly.

"Gao Siyu," Bai Xiaosheng murmured softly, his gaze flickering sharply.

This time, his return was preceded with a courtesy call to Xiahou Qi’s side.

Just before his departure, Xiahou Qi had Wang Mubei send him a few words.

Bai Xiaosheng remembered clearly.

Wang Mubei had said, "President Xia says to tell you, ’Senior Affairs Officer’—these four words represent the highest authority of the Affairs Department, the prestige and power of the headquarters!"

"Severe punishment for those who act recklessly, disregarding the group’s interests!"

"Severe punishment for those who are arrogantly uncontrolled, scorning the Senior Affairs Officer!"

"If they offend both points, even if they are an Affairs Officer, a provincial industry head, they can be dealt with on the spot!"

Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze was bright one moment and dim the next.

"The old man, having Wang Mubei tell me these things in particular, is he saying..."

"There’s no need for courtesy!"

At the same time.

In the President’s Office of the Zhenbei Group Greater China Region.

Xiahou Qi put down the document in his hands, took off his reading glasses, and accepted a cup of tea that Wang Mubei passed him, about to drink when he suddenly stopped, "It’s been a week since Bai Xiaosheng went to Zhongjing, right?"

Wang Mubei glanced at the date, replying, "It has."

Xiahou Qi nodded, sipping a little tea.

"So... Zhongjing Media, right? That company’s upcoming colloquium, he should be attending that."

Before Bai Xiaosheng left, he had informed Xiahou Qi and shown him his temporary disposition opinion.

Xiahou Qi remembered, the colloquium was to be held in a week.

"He should have arrived," Wang Mubei nodded.

Logically, even if it involved just one directly managed subsidiary, even if it was the industry of a city group, it should be insignificant to the President of the Zhenbei Group Greater China Region.

Yet Xiahou Qi constantly remembered.

To this, Wang Mubei showed no surprise at all.

"Are you worried that Bai Xiaosheng, the Senior Affairs Officer, didn’t understand your message?" Wang Mubei inquired.

Xiahou Qi smiled.

"That kid is quite astute."

"Moreover, this time, Gao Siyu might have touched a raw nerve of his!"

Xiahou Qi’s gaze also flickered slightly.

"Last time, someone crossed the line, and I felt it necessary to give a moderate warning."

"Coincidentally, there’s this opportunity, so let Bai Xiaosheng handle it!"

Xiahou Qi spoke with profound meaning.

The dance of swordsmanship; His thoughts lie with Duke of Pei!

...

Bai Xiaosheng had only drunk half of his coffee when Lin Weiwei entered the café.

It was a quiet time of day, and Bai Xiaosheng was seated at a conspicuous spot.

Lin Weiwei swept her gaze around, spotted him, and walked over with a smile to sit down opposite him.

"Xiaosheng, did you come early, have you been waiting long?" Lin Weiwei said with a slightly apologetic smile.

She could have been earlier, but there had been some traffic on the way.

Bai Xiaosheng looked her over.

Returning from the province, Lin Weiwei was full of energy.

"Not at all, I just sat down a little while ago myself," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, "What would you like to drink?"

"No, let’s go straight to the company," Lin Weiwei suggested.

She was eager to see her friends at Zhongjing Media.

"Sure, that’s fine," Bai Xiaosheng nodded, standing up.

Just now, as he watched Mayor Ji Mingyang’s car pass, Bai Xiaosheng also wanted to head over earlier.

And so, they left the café and walked towards Zhongjing Media Tower, a few hundred meters away.

On the way, Bai Xiaosheng saw Lin Weiwei’s excited demeanor, hesitated briefly but still said, "Weiwei, I need to talk to you."

Lin Weiwei was startled, seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s serious expression.

"Regarding the current situation at Zhongjing Media!" Bai Xiaosheng said.

Five minutes later.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei arrived downstairs at the Zhongjing Media Tower, and the excitement Lin Weiwei had been feeling was now replaced by solemnity.

Up until now, Bai Xiaosheng had been keeping it a secret.

It was only now that Lin Weiwei realized how grave the situation facing Zhongjing Media was!

In fact, it wasn’t just Zhongjing Media, all the corporate enterprises in Zhongjing were in complete disarray.

Today, even Mayor Ji Mingyang had come in person.

"Sheng, we’ll be able to resolve these troubles, right?" Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but ask.

Currently, a strong hand was needed to make corrections.

Bai Xiaosheng raised his eyes to look at the building, his voice firmly affirmative.

"Yes!"

After that, they both entered the company and went straight upstairs.

Along the way, there were hardly any people to be seen, let alone familiar faces.

The once vibrant and energetic Zhongjing Media now seemed somewhat lifeless.

Just thinking about how it was being split up and thrown into two other cities made Lin Weiwei feel somewhat uncomfortable!

Bai Xiaosheng’s mood was equally far from happy!

As the elevator ascended, neither of them spoke, their expressions serious.

Halfway up, the elevator dinged and unexpectedly stopped.

The elevator doors opened, and someone walked in.

This was meant to be an insignificant little diversion.

But as the person who came in looked up and saw Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei, he was taken aback.

Bai Xiaosheng and they were also surprised to see him.

"Mr. Bai, Assistant Lin!" The person’s eyes were filled with disbelief as he spoke tremulously.

"Shi Yu!" Bai Xiaosheng smiled at him, "I hope you’re well!"

Shi Yu from the New Media Department, an old-timer who had created glory with Bai Xiaosheng!

Seeing them after such a long time, the address was still as before.

Watching Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei, Shi Yu’s expression seemed both like he wanted to cry and to laugh.

It was obvious that he was very excited.

"Mr. Bai, our company, it’s over!" Shi Yu blurted out such a statement the next time he spoke.

"The company won’t be over!" Bai Xiaosheng said with utter certainty.

At those words, the burly Shi Yu was nearly brought to tears.

Back then, and even now.

Bai Xiaosheng had always been the unshakeable figure in his heart, who constantly worked miracles!

Whatever Bai Xiaosheng said, Shi Yu believed without doubt!

"Mr. Bai, it’s good that you’re back. With you here, there’s hope for the company!" Shi Yu said, his voice trembling.

Then, Shi Yu spoke urgently, "The old members of the New Media Department are about to resign collectively. I was going to find Mr. Gao, but now that you’re here, could you please come with me to persuade them? They’re about to leave!"

Shi Yu was very anxious.

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng.

Objectively speaking.

Bai Xiaosheng should be going straight to the meeting instead to resolve the major trouble, rather than these small crises.

However, it was clear that Shi Yu was very excited, and it seemed like he wanted to speak more with Bai Xiaosheng.

"Alright," Bai Xiaosheng agreed to Shi Yu without much hesitation.

"Weiwei, you go to the meeting first. I’ll be there shortly!" Bai Xiaosheng looked at Lin Weiwei.

"Yes!" Lin Weiwei didn’t stress anything else but nodded in agreement.

They sent Lin Weiwei up in the elevator.

Then Bai Xiaosheng and Shi Yu took the elevator down to the current office area of the New Media Department.

Exiting the elevator, Lin Weiwei went alone to the meeting area.

One year on from today, the company had changed everywhere, even the reception desk from the past was gone!

Lin Weiwei sighed as she looked at the former location.

Just a few meters out, a group of people came hurrying towards her.

Leading them was Gao Dazhi.

"Assistant Lin!"

The moment he recognized Lin Weiwei, Gao Dazhi couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, equally astonished.

"Mr. Gao!" Lin Weiwei smiled, "It’s me! Where are you off to?"

"I’m going to receive the... from the Affairs Department," Gao Dazhi began, but then he paused, his eyes wide with shock, "It couldn’t be..."

"It’s me!"
