Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. The weather during this period of time was pretty good. It was not as cold as before, but the winter sun was brilliant and warm.
The wedding of Jin Sheng and Dongfang Rou’er was tomorrow, and the venue was the luxurious Imperial Hotel.
​
The day before the wedding, the Dongfang family’s house was already very lively. Many people who came from other places to attend the wedding also came to visit in person.
Dongfang Liuyun had already been called back by Dongfang Shuman at noon. However, she still only rushed back after finishing her work.
When she returned to the Dongfang old residence, the sky had already fallen silent. The setting sun was also much dimmer. Standing at the door from afar, she could already hear the congratulatory voices coming from inside.
Dongfang Liuyun walked in with big strides.
“Fourth Miss, you’re back! President Shu wants you to go straight to the study.”
Dongfang Liuyun had just entered the hall when the butler came up to greet her.
Dongfang Liuyun nodded. “Who’s up there?”
“President Shu just sent a few distinguished guests down. Now, President Shu should be the only one up there. Oh, right, Miss Xue has also returned. She should be resting up there too. I wonder if she’s in President Shu’s study. Miss Xue asked about you earlier. She probably misses you. She brought a lot of good things back for Fourth Miss this time. eh? Where’s the Master? Didn’t he come back with you?” The butler said enthusiastically.
“He’s busy. Is my mother back?”
Dongfang Liuyun thought for a moment and asked again.
“Lawyer Song has already gone back to her room. Oh, she said she’ll go back when you’re back.”
“Okay, I got it. You can go ahead.”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she walked up the stairs.
At this moment, in Dongfang Shuman’s study room.
Dongfang Shuman was sitting on the sofa, reading a document in her hand. Ah Cai was standing beside her.
“Ah Cai, take a look at this document. I am more and more appreciative of Ah Xue’s abilities. She has the image of my iron fist from back then. I should be proud of having such a daughter.”
Dongfang Shuman coughed a few times and handed the document to Ah Cai. “Sit down and take a look.”
“Yes, President Shu!” Ah Cai replied and then reached out to take it. She slowly flipped through it.
After a while, Ah Cai’s face was filled with admiration.
“President Shu, Miss Xue’s ability is really admirable. No matter what she does, she will always do her best. This area had just been developed in the past. Now, only a few years have passed, and she is already able to do this. The quarterly turnover is also the highest in this area under her jurisdiction. I think that if this report is handed over, those shareholders will definitely clap their hands in praise.”
Dongfang Shuman nodded, “Yes, her ability is impeccable, but the more she acts like this, the more I feel the pressure, especially on Liuyun’s side.”
As Dongfang Shuman spoke, she could not help but sigh again.
“Don’t worry, President Shu. Miss Liuyun is also quite capable, haven’t you noticed? Miss Liuyun is actually very good at utilizing people. She has just joined the company not long ago, and with the help of President Gan, she has replaced quite a few people. Moreover, the people she recommended are all very capable, and their character can be trusted.”
“Well, you are right on that point. In our position, we don’t just look at individual ability. In the matter of employing people, we will try our best to use anyone who has a skill that we need. Arrange them in a suitable position, and they will display an ability that we didn’t expect. On this point, I personally admire Ah Gan very much.”
As Dongfang Shuman spoke, she coughed a few more times. Ah Cai hurriedly put away the documents in her hands and poured half a cup of warm water for her. Dongfang Shuman drank a few mouthfuls before she calmed down quite a bit.
“President Gan is indeed admirable when it comes to employing people. His judgment of people is very accurate.”
“That’s right. Actually, when Ah Xue was transferred away, I myself also had a skeptical attitude. But at that time, it was Ah Gan who took charge of the Dongfang Group, so I could not refute his decision,” said Dongfang Shuman.
“Then, President Shu, what position does Miss Liuyun plan to place Miss Xue in now?” Ah Cai asked.
“The Deputy Director of the Administrative Department, Huang Xia, was fired a few days ago. Liuyun’s intention is to arrange for Ah Xue to replace her.”
“Deputy Director of the Administrative Department?”
Ah Cai hesitated for a moment. “This position is a good place to go.”
“Liuyun is quite thoughtful. Actually, I was inclined to arrange this position for her too. Her desire to perform is too strong. This is not a good thing. This daughter is competitive and has some of my looks in the past. However, I secretly do not want her to fight for it. In the end, this position should belong to Liuyun. It is also what your Elder President had hoped for.”
When Dongfang Shuman said this, she could not help but feel her head ache.
“President Shu, if it weren’t for the Elder President’s dying wish, would you have preferred Miss Xue to be your successor?” Ah Cai asked in a low voice.
Hearing this, Dongfang Shuman had already raised her hand slightly to stop Ah Cai. Her aged face appeared a little serious, “No, even if it wasn’t your Elder President’s intentions, I wouldn’t have let Ah Xue sit in this position. Her ability is not bad, but she also lacks a tolerance. She is only suitable to be a pioneer, not a person who plans and controls the overall situation. Her ability is very one-sided. If this were ancient times, she would only be suitable as an outstanding valiant general, not a military advisor, nor a marshal.”
Dongfang Shuman was very accurate in positioning people. After so many years, had she not seen in all?
“President Shu… What about Miss Liuyun?” A Cai asked with some doubt.
“She still needs experience. Her personality is quite similar to her father’s. Haven’t you noticed? Ah Gan and Ah Xue are actually a perfect combination. Ah Xue is an unsheathed sharp blade. Ah Gan is the person who unsheathed the sharp blade. Only with this kind of cooperation can they truly become indestructible.”
Ah Cai finally understood, “But, Miss Xue’s ambitions, I’m afraid…”
“So, I’m afraid this is also the last thing that a dying person like me can do for Liuyun.”
Dongfang Shuman smiled helplessly. These words made Ah Cai somewhat puzzled. Just as she wanted to ask something, there was already a knock on the door—
“Grandmother?”
It was Dongfang Liuyun’s voice.
“Liuyun is back!”
Dongfang Shuman quickly regained her senses. She turned her gaze to look at her tightly shut door and replied, “The door isn’t locked. Come in!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the door opened and a dark-gray figure entered her sight…
