My beautiful CEO wife
Chapter 330: Holy Shit! Really Thinks He’s a Leader?

Chapter 330: Chapter 330: Holy Shit! Really Thinks He’s a Leader?

Xiao Zheng, who worked with her day in and day out, certainly knew her temperament. He stepped forward and, with a weighted tone, addressed the head of the security department, "Minister Gao, your security department’s performance in safety and fire prevention has been very unsatisfactory."

God damn! What a slap in the face that was.

The employees were all stunned. Had this guy lost his mind? To offend the head of the security department—did he no longer want to work at Qianqiu Group?

Mo Anna was also frozen in shock. What the hell does this have to do with you, always sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong and causing trouble for the sales department?

As expected, Minister Gao was furious, and with scornful disdain, he said, "You’re just an ignoramus making wild guesses."

"Making wild guesses?" Xiao Zheng looked at him contemptuously, composed and firm, "Supervisor Xiao is serious."

He spoke with the conviction of someone who might as well have been the CEO of the group, his assertions undeniable.

Minister Gao was enraged, truly enraged. Pointing a finger at Xiao Zheng’s nose, he accused, "You’re just a sales department supervisor. Is this your place to speak? Are you an expert in security and fire safety? Utter nonsense!"

Xiao Zheng remained unbothered, knocking away his finger and, moving in close to glare into his eyes, retorted, "Fire safety knowledge is a must for everyone. What does that have to do with ’expertise’?"

Eye to eye, exchanging electric sparks of contention, neither could overpower the other.

Standing not far away, Leng Ruobing’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly—that guy really had some nerve, taking on the head of the security department head-on. However, with his intervention, at least he could stir these still waters and contribute to improving Qianqiu Group’s fire safety.

She watched with her arms folded, not saying a word, allowing Xiao Zheng to do as he pleased.

Minister Gao felt like he couldn’t back down, especially after being shown up in front of Leng Ruobing. He glared at Xiao Zheng, grinding his teeth, "Xiao, if you can point out problems with the company’s fire safety, I will concede defeat."

Xiao Zheng smiled faintly, picked up a fire extinguisher, pulled the pin, and sprayed it onto a fire.

In an instant, the flames were extinguished, as if they had never existed.

"See? Using a fire extinguisher is actually quite simple; you just need to teach it once. However, fire extinguishers should be placed in visible areas, not hidden inside glass showcases."

"Cut it out! That’s not even an issue, is it? You can open the glass showcase, can’t you?" Minister Gao scoffed, believing the criticism to be nitpicking, as straightforward as finding fault in a flawless egg.

"NoNoNo," Xiao Zheng gestured with his hands, pointing at the glass cabinet, "If someone has never seen these things before, they wouldn’t even know the showcase can be opened."

Minister Gao stiffened his neck, incredulous, "Impossible! Only an idiot wouldn’t know that."

Xiao Zheng didn’t bother to argue. He pulled over a deputy director of the group and said gently, "President Zhang, try to open this glass showcase."

"Huh?" President Zhang looked confused and circled around, questioning, "It can’t be opened, can it? There’s no keyhole, no handle."

Xiao Zheng clapped his hands, then smugly said to Minister Gao, "See? This glass showcase is seamless and smooth. If you don’t know how, indeed you can’t open it."

With that, he pressed a spot on the showcase, and with a "click," the showcase opened.

President Zhang nodded, "So, that’s how it is? I really hadn’t noticed."

Some employees who also didn’t understand had a sudden realization—if it were up to them to open it, they wouldn’t be able to do it either.

Finally, Minister Gao nodded, but still stubborn as a mule, he said, "That’s not a big issue, not even an issue at all. Can you point out any other problems?"

Xiao Zheng looked around at all the employees and said lightly, "Minister Gao, in the future, do not lock the stairway exit doors. If there were to be a fire, it would truly leave employees with no way to escape."

Jesus Christ, mowing the lawn!

Minister Gao was flabbergasted. Can this even count as a hazard?

"The company has elevators, and locking the doors is also for the security of each department’s property. Besides, if a fire really occurs, those on the top floor simply don’t have the physical strength to run all the way downstairs," he said.

After he finished speaking, quite a few leaders expressed their agreement. Essentially, there was one department per floor, and if they were interconnected, such problems could indeed occur.

However, Xiao Zheng shook his head and said, "You don’t understand. Once a fire breaks out, people’s potential will be unleashed, and the emergency exits will be extremely useful. Besides, isn’t it great for the departments to be united and friendly toward each other?"

Xiao Zheng kept talking nonstop, and both the leaders and employees of the group found his points very sensible.

Even Minister Gao from the security department had no choice but to nod along because Supervisor Xiao pinpointed issues that directly hit the nail on the head, leaving him with no room to object.

"Right, one more thing, these fire alarm buttons definitely need to be installed in greater numbers, ideally one in every room."

"These must be the leftover color painting materials from the last renovation, right? Yes, move them all out. They’re flammable and can easily cause fires."

"See this? This is a discarded outlet with exposed wires, and no insulation work was done. If it sparks, the consequences are unimaginable."

"..."

Xiao Zheng spoke for a solid half hour, and even Leng Ruobing was tired of listening. However, this series of issues needed to be taken seriously and safety hazards had to be nipped in the bud.

Thinking this, Leng Ruobing summoned Minister Gao to his side and ordered sternly, "Follow Supervisor Xiao’s guidance and rectify the issues he pointed out. I will inspect them in three days!" Having said that, he left indifferently with his secretary.

"Don’t worry, Mr. Leng, I guarantee the task will be completed!" Minister Gao declared with his chest puffed out, but Leng Ruobing was already far away, leaving him with a view of his retreating back.

Xiao Zheng also patted his shoulder and said solemnly, "Old Gao, the responsibility is great and the road is long!" Then he too left.

Minister Gao was left there, dumbfounded. Damn it, one after another, they had all turned into leaders who gave orders, while I, a mighty minister, had become like a pawn at their behest.

It really pisses me off! But still, work needs to be done.

...

After returning to the sales department, Xiao Zheng dropped down and fell asleep. Having been busy the whole previous night, catching up on sleep was essential.

However, the heavens were unkind, as a frenetic ringtone of a mobile phone broke his sweet slumber.

Rubbing his blurry eyes, he picked up the phone and saw that it was a call from the girl Shen Jiayi, which instantly revived his spirits as he answered the phone.

"Hello, Jiayi. Are you missing Brother Xiao?"

"Hmph, you still bring it up. Since you left last time, you haven’t contacted me. You simply don’t have me in your heart," Shen Jiayi’s voice came through, carrying a hint of complaint but not hiding its tender allure.

Xiao Zheng went to the rooftop, lit a cigarette, and comforted her, "Little sister Jiayi, Brother Xiao has been busy. As soon as I’m free, I’ll definitely come to see you first thing."

Ever since the blind date incident, Xiao Zheng had realized that Aunt Wang simply did not like him one bit.

And as Shen Jiayi worked as a flight attendant with extremely irregular hours, there was no overlap with Xiao Zheng’s free time, making it inevitable that they wouldn’t be able to see each other.
