When Zhang Jiasen saw that Ning Shu was paying a lot of attention to the brand names that Xue Manman was wearing, he couldn’t help but suspect that she had found out about something.
“Actually, Secretary Xue comes from a pretty good family, so it’s normal for her to have some name brands,” said Zhang Jiasen.
“Miaomiao, I want to give you a present.” Zhang Jiasen took a jewelry box out from his drawer, then opened it. Inside was a diamond necklace.
The craftsmanship was very intricate. Zhang Jiasen said warmly, “I had bought this specially for you.”
Ning Shu replied mildly, “You’re the one who’s becoming CEO, why are you giving me a present?”
“Miaomiao, I used half this year’s salary to buy this for you. Last time you were saying that Secretary Xue was wearing a lot of name brands, so this time I also brought a name brand for you.” Zhang Jiasen looked towards Ning Shu with a gentle expression. “Miaomiao, do you like it?”
Ning Shu looked at the diamond necklace. It was the type that went with formal attire for dinner parties. It was too much to wear during everyday situations.
This wasn’t the style that Miao Miaomiao liked at all, so Ning Shu didn’t believe in the slightest that Zhang Jiasen had actually bought this specially for her.
He had probably gotten it for Xue Manman but now he was giving it to her.
“Want me to put it on for you?” asked Zhang Jiasen.
“No need.” Ning Shu shook her head and closed the box before setting it on the table.
Ning Shu’s insipid attitude made Zhang Jiasen feel very defeated. If it had been Xue Manman who received this gift, she definitely would’ve been very happy.
Miao Miaomiao’s attitude made Zhang Jiasen very unhappy. He felt that he never had any value in front of Miao Miaomiao, because Miao Miaomiao already possessed everything. It was easy for her to obtain whatever she wanted.
She didn’t care about things like these at all.
Ning Shu saw Zhang Jiasen’s hurt expression, but she didn’t care in the slightest.
Hurt?
Who was he acting for?
Ning Shu walked into the conference room after Zhang Jiasen. She didn’t bother with any extraneous words and directly got to the point. “From now on, Zhang Jiasen will be the company’s CEO. He will have full power over the company and its development direction.”
Father Miao hadn’t shown up today under the pretext that he wasn’t feeling well. Everyone present just looked at each other. They couldn’t tell if Ning Shu was serious or just playing around.
“There’s no need to doubt this. From now on, I will take on the position of CEO. I hope to work together with everyone from now on to make this company even stronger,” said Zhang Jiasen.
When the others heard what Zhang Jiasen said, they started applauding to welcome him.
Ning Shu took this in quietly. The atmosphere was much more lively compared to when she became CEO. It was clear that these people approved of Zhang Jiasen more over having her, this woman, as CEO.
However, Ning Shu wasn’t angry. She had to protect this company and get rid of some of the vermin that were currently in the company. How could Zhang Jiasen have laundered enough money to buy a mansion in two years if he didn’t have collaborators or people beneath him supporting him?
Zhang Jiasen gave an impassioned speech and ended the meeting on a festive note.
Zhang Jiasen was still a little apprehensive earlier, but now he felt much more relieved. He had become the company’s CEO. The next step was to make the company fall fully into his grasp so that the chairman would become a mere figurehead.
Ning Shu just quietly took in Zhang Jiasen’s delighted expression. Soon, soon…
