“Sister, why are you looking at me like that?” Shi He walked to the desk with an awkward smile and took out a tissue to wipe the sweat on his face.
Shi Man’s gaze drifted to him coldly. “Brother, what’s going on between you and Lin Yue? Why did you suddenly transfer your shares to her? Isn’t she an artist you signed?”
“Sister, listen to me tell you about this slowly.” Shi He held her shoulder and placed her on the sofa. He said earnestly, “During the time I’ve been running the company, other than relying on you, I’ll also ask for Lin Yue’s opinion appropriately. It’s also because of this that I realized that she has the mind to run a company.”
As he spoke, he kept stealing glances at Shi Man’s expression. Seeing that she didn’t have any expression on her face and didn’t seem angry, he heaved a sigh of relief and continued, “You know that I’m not good at this. Instead of letting people poke my backbone when the company develops badly, it’s better for Lin Yue and me to develop the company together.”
Shi Man did not think that this was a good reason, so she naturally could not be completely convinced.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly, “Does Ning Hui agree with your actions?”
“Uh…” Shi He was stunned for a moment. He rubbed his wet hair hesitantly and said awkwardly, “I had a fight with Brother Ning over this. He went to take care of other artists.”
Sensing Shi Man’s incredulous glare, Shi He knew that he had messed up. He looked away unnaturally and said, “Sister, 1 know 1 did something wrong. 1’11 apologize to Brother Ning later.”
Shi Man sighed helplessly.
Right now, she did not care who had the management rights of the company. What she cared about the most now was Shi He’s attitude towards Lin Yue.
“Brother, about buying the ice cream just now…”
This time, before Shi Man could finish, Shi He explained to her, “I bought this for her voluntarily. Don’t blame her. I just don’t know how to treat her well. The Lin family has everything and doesn’t lack anything. If I don’t do anything for her, 1 feel that I’m useless.”
Shi Man did not expect him to think that way. Just as she was about to lecture him, the office door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
Wan Na had a polite smile on her face as she reminded them kindly, “CEO Shi, Miss Shi, CEO Lin asked me to remind the two of you that it’s getting late. If you continue chatting, you’ll probably delay lunch.”
“Oh! I’ll be right there!” Shi He walked out almost as soon as she finished speaking.
When he reached the door, he realized that Shi Man had not followed him. Only then did he stop and turn around to look at his sister hesitantly. “Manman, aren’t you coming to eat? The food in our company’s canteen is very delicious.”
Shi Man looked at the way the two of them were interacting and couldn’t eat anymore. She stared at him expressionlessly and said, “No, I’ll go back first. Brother, there’s a limit to how good you are to a person. Take care.”
With that, Shi Man brushed past him without looking back and left the company with Meng Hui.
As soon as she got into the car, Meng Hui turned on the air conditioner in the car anxiously and kept fanning herself with her hand. “It’s really hot today. CEO Shi, 1 saw Third Young Master holding an ice cream with sweat on his face just now. He looked so anxious as if he had been chased away by a wolf. What’s wrong?”
“It’s fine.” Shi Man turned her gaze to the window in frustration. She placed her arm gently on the armrest of the car chair and said, “Let’s go back.”
“Okay.” Meng Hui hurriedly instructed the chauffeur to drive back to the company.
The noon sun was really hot and dazzling. Meng Hui leaned back in her chair drowsily, thinking that she could take a break and rest for a while. Unexpectedly, Shi Man’s cold voice suddenly came from behind.
“He Man Entertainment might be hiring a new front desk recently. Help me keep an eye on a suitable candidate.”
Meng Hui jolted awake and hurriedly sat up straight to agree.
After following Shi Man for so long, she had long been able to judge her true thoughts through Shi Man’s expression.
Shi Man must not be saying this just to help He Man Entertainment recruit people. On a deeper level, she wanted to take the opportunity to plant her own people.
It seemed that CEO Shi was indeed in a bad mood today.
Meng Hui secretly prayed in her heart that nothing would go against her wishes for the afternoon’s work. Otherwise, CEO Shi would definitely fly into a rage! At that time, she would be the one to suffer!
Unexpectedly, things did not go as planned. Perhaps Meng Hui was not pious enough when she prayed, Shi Man indeed encountered a tricky matter in the afternoon.
The residential building area of the West District’s city reconstruction had already taken shape, but the staff in charge of the event location’s construction supervision today sent back bad news.
A young worker suddenly screamed when he was working in the middle level. Right on the heels of that, he jumped down from the building and actually fell to his death on the spot.
After the accident, the management at the scene called the police directly.
Shi Man immediately brought people to the event location. Fortunately, the person in charge of this area was Chen Wei. He was quite smart and immediately blocked the news, preventing the matter from worsening..
