Chapter 939: 929 Tarot (23) Chapter Two

The two joked and laughed as they left together.

Outside, the group led by Xue Jinxin was happily preparing to present their planning drafts at the office later.

"Hurry up, the meeting starts at 9:30." Everyone was busy rushing about.

Some were so nervous while preparing the drafts that their fingers trembled uncontrollably.

Compared to their bustle, the area around Ye Shaohua was deserted.

As people were busily hurrying by, they couldn’t help feeling secretly relieved in their hearts that they had managed to join Xue Jinxin’s team in time.

At 9:30, the meeting of the Planning Department began on schedule.

Those attending the meeting were not only high-ranking members from the Ye Family but also everyone from the Planning Department.

When Ye Shaohua and Mei Jiamin arrived, there were not many people in the office.

Shaohua had attended this meeting before and, from memory, found the original host’s usual seat.

Although the original host had a minor role, her position as the manager and the daughter of Mr. Ye guaranteed her a fairly prominent seat at the meeting.

The nameplate with the original host’s name had been taken away.

It was in the third seat from the left, right next to Uncle Ye of the Ye Family.

Mei Jiamin carried files in her hand, while Shaohua only took out a mobile phone and sat down in this spot.

She had a photographic memory and didn’t need to take notes during the meeting, so she simply brought her phone.

However, the sight of this stirred headshakes among the other Ye Family executives.

"Manager Ye, I’m sorry," at that moment, the meeting organizer, sweating from his forehead and holding a new nameplate in his hand, said, "This seat is for Manager Xue..."

He held the nameplate in his hand, looking somewhat helpless.

"This has always been Manager Ye’s spot, how did it become Manager Xue’s?" Mei Jiamin, standing behind Ye Shaohua, said with some anger.

It was excessive for the executives to behave this way.

Even if they yielded the seat to Xue Jinxin, shouldn’t they have moved back instead? Were they simply removing Ye Shaohua from the meeting table just like that?

"Manager Ye, I apologize, everyone present is a high-ranking executive of the company, and this planning case is very important," said a Ye Family executive with a faux smile, "I’m afraid you’ll have to bear with sitting along with the other employees on the sides."

Clearly, this was outright bullying. Mei Jiamin opened her mouth, wanting to argue, but was stopped by Ye Shaohua.

"It’s alright." Ye Shaohua gave her a reassuring look.

Then, she walked toward the left side by herself.

The left side was where the company’s employees sat, and although Shaohua’s identity had been stripped, in their eyes she remained a formidable figure, so they saved the first seat for Shaohua.

Mei Jiamin said nothing and sat down next to Shaohua.

When Father Ye arrived and saw Shaohua sitting on the side, he paused in his step.

The secretary beside him also frowned slightly. After making a few inquiries, he quietly spoke to Father Ye.

"What’s with this seating arrangement?" Father Ye stood at his own spot and immediately asked a few questions.

The person in charge of seating was nervous, but the other shareholders of the Ye Family had long been displeased with Father Ye and had been seeking reasons to vote him out.

"Mr. Ye, the seating this time was arranged according to the bidders, do you have an issue with that?" one shareholder inquired.

Do you have an issue? Of course he did.

Just as Father Ye was about to speak, he caught a reassuring glance from Shaohua.

Father Ye swallowed the words he was about to say.

Upon seeing Father Ye’s reaction, the others exchanged glances and could see the mockery in each other’s eyes.

It was at this moment that Xue Jinxin, accompanied by her planning team, arrived fashionably late.

As soon as she arrived, several major shareholders immediately stood up and greeted Xue Jinxin with great warmth and courtesy, a stark contrast to their indifference toward Shaohua earlier.

"Manager Xue, you’ve arrived just in time," said the same major shareholder, going to the door to shake hands with Xue Jinxin.

The executives of the Ye Family were no fools; there were spies arranged in every department, including the Planning Department. Especially after Xue Jinxin’s arrival, at least half of the office staff were their informants.

They were well aware of the specific progress of Jinxin’s planning.

The project Xue Jinxin’s team had signed was the largest the Ye Family had secured in three years.

The Ye Family was on the decline, lacking innovation and living off past successes. But, as the industry evolved rapidly, resting on past laurels was no longer viable.

Luckily, the Planning Department tendered for a new project and, with Xue Jinxin on board, the joint venture was set to be the Ye Family’s main focus for the upcoming years.

The major shareholders of the company naturally understood the critical nature of the project.

Xue Jinxin had her team distribute copies of the planning to everyone and then explained the entire planning proposal in relation to the tender.

"This joint venture has just started, and we’re short-staffed," the person from the Planning Department spoke up.

"Let the HR department handle the recruitment," Uncle Ye hadn’t dared to speak when Shaohua arrived; he was still shaken by Shen Jiyun’s visit the previous night. It was only upon hearing from the Planning Department that he chimed in.

The Planning Department seemed troubled, "But we don’t have enough office space for more staff."

"The planning office isn’t small, though," the major shareholder glanced at Shaohua, "Manager Ye, how is your collaboration with Shen’s company going?"

"Not bad," Shaohua replied nonchalantly.

To the major shareholder, this ’not bad’ seemed evasive.

"Since that’s the case, your team has only two people but occupies half of the office. How about you move out, and I’ll have someone find you another space?" The major shareholder hardly believed Shaohua could really seal the deal with Shen’s company and saw it as an opportunity to do Xue Jinxin a favor.
