Chapter 118 You saw them overstep their bounds
Reading Settings
"This is not bright and cheerful."
Rong Zhi's deep, magnetic voice rang out, containing an almost imperceptible chill.
Sang Yuwan placed her hands on the desk, gently lifted her eyelids, and her curled eyelashes appeared even longer. "Are you sure?"
“Absolutely certain.” Rong Zhi’s gaze sharpened, his narrowed eyes flashing with a chilling coldness.
Sang Yuwan had just asked Xiansi to investigate because she also had some doubts about this.
She suddenly realized that she and Rong Zhi shared surprisingly similar views on certain matters. Sometimes, they were even remarkably in sync.
Even after working with her for five years, Bo Xingzhi would have found it difficult to reach such a level.
She didn't know why the two of them were so in sync; it had only been a month since they met.
"I'll take care of it right now." Rong Zhi's angular face was sharp and intimidating.
Sang Yuwan withdrew her gaze, picked up her pen, and signed her name on the document in front of her. "President Rong, if there are any omissions this time, I will punish you severely."
Rong Zhi's eyelids twitched. He placed his hands on the edge of the desk, leaned slightly forward, and a faint smile appeared in his eyes. "Don't worry, I won't give the chairman that chance."
Sang Yuwan raised an eyebrow slightly, her smile not reaching her eyes. "I hope so."
Rong Zhi stared at her silently, his lips pursed, and he remained silent.
Sang Yuwan's heart pounded, and she glared at him. "Is there something else?"
Rong Zhi smiled and asked, "What would you like to eat for lunch?"
Sang Yuwan glared at him, gritting her teeth, "Get lost."
Rong Zhi, though embarrassed, wasn't annoyed at all; instead, the corners of his lips curled up even more. "Don't be angry. The book says that anger can affect the fetus's personality."
Sang Yuwan raised her eyelids slightly. "That's enough."
Rong Zhi smiled, straightened up, and slowly said, "Don't worry. With me here, nothing big will happen."
Sang Yuwan's heart skipped a beat, a warm current rising within her. Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy that she had become somewhat sentimental. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she chuckled softly, a hint of coldness in her voice, "Second Master, it sounds as if I need to rely on you."
Rong Zhi said slowly, "I just hope that you won't have to work so hard these ten months."
Sang Yuwan felt a warmth in her heart, but her expression remained calm and expressionless. "If you don't leave, I'll call security."
Rong Zhi snatched the document she had just signed, and smiled slightly. "I'm leaving."
Sang Yuwan watched him leave, her eyes flickering, his words still echoing in her mind. Her right hand unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen.
Without realizing it, the discomfort in my body disappeared.
Sang Yuwan was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, "How could this be?"
Before noon, three personnel appointment and dismissal notices were issued on the Bo Group's internal network.
The news that Sang Yuwan had dismissed three vice presidents quickly reached Ning Wanzhen's ears.
At this moment, Ning Xin'er was helping her with flower arranging.
"Madam, news from the group says that you've dismissed three vice presidents, plus President Liu who was transferred voluntarily earlier. All four vice presidents are gone." The servant glanced at Ning Xin'er furtively as he spoke.
"Hiss..." Ning Xin'er seemed startled as a rose thorn pricked her finger. A bead of bright red blood instantly welled up.
Shocked, Ning Wanzhen was about to ask what was going on when she saw this and hurriedly said to the servants, "Quickly bring the first-aid kit over."
"Yes," the servant replied and hurriedly ran away.
Ning Xin'er grasped her injured finger and squeezed it subtly twice, causing blood to roll down and drip onto the cut rose petals.
Ning Wanzhen frowned with concern, "How could you be so careless?"
Ning Xin'er raised her eyebrows and smiled casually, "I... I was shocked by the news he mentioned. My cousin's wife has only been in office for a month, and she's already fired all of my cousin's former confidants. I wonder what they did wrong? It's one thing for one person to make a mistake, but for four people to have problems at the same time, that shouldn't be the case."
Ning Wanzhen's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. "I think she clearly wants to promote her own confidant."
Ning Xin'er turned pale with fright, her voice trembling, "Auntie, I'd rather believe that all four vice presidents have run into trouble than believe that my cousin-in-law had such a purpose."
Ning Wanzhen's face was filled with anger. "Don't underestimate her."
A smug smile flashed in Ning Xin'er's eyes, but it vanished in an instant. She frowned, puzzled, and said, "Auntie, although my cousin-in-law is capable, she wouldn't be so reckless..."
A servant rushed over carrying a medicine box. "Madam, the medicine box is here."
Ning Wanzhen opened it and took out cotton swabs and iodine.
"Auntie, I can do it myself," Ning Xin'er said shyly.
Ning Wanzhen said with a stern face, "Don't move."
Ning Xin'er was quite helpless and could only watch.
Ning Wanzhen quickly disinfected her wound and applied a bandage.
Ning Xin'er pursed her lips, a thin mist of tears welling up in her eyes, "Thank you, Auntie."
Ning Wanzhen closed the medicine box and asked the servant, "Who has Madam promoted?"
The servants said tremblingly, "Madam has instructed Vice President Gao and the others to hand over their work to Second Master. She hasn't promoted anyone yet."
"What did you say?!" Ning Wanzhen's mind went blank for a moment, and her face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot. "This idiot."
Ning Xin'er felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction as she heard her sister call Sang Yuwan an "idiot." Her breathing quickened, and her face was full of worry. "Auntie, my cousin-in-law has her reasons for doing this."
She paused slightly, then frowned and asked疑惑地, "I used to often hear my uncle praise my second brother, saying he was better than my cousin in every way. I suppose my cousin's wife also valued his abilities, so..."
"I think she's after him for who he is," Ning Wanzhen said, her anger bordering on recklessness.
The servants were terrified and stood aside, unsure whether to leave or stay.
In a corner not far away, three servants gathered. They heard this, glanced at each other, and whispered among themselves.
“The lady is so young and powerful, how could she possibly live as a widow?”
"Even so, she's secretly keeping a man as a mistress. Who is Second Master? He's her brother-in-law."
"That can't be right, Madam is pregnant right now. No matter what, it shouldn't be..."
A deep, cold voice broke their conversation.
"You have some nerve, daring to gossip about the family head in private. It seems you don't want to continue working here."
"Master Steward, we heard from the old lady..."
"Eavesdropping on one's master's conversation is an even more serious crime."
"Steward, please spare us this time. We will never dare to do it again."
"Get out of here now."
"Yes...yes...yes..."
The three servants scattered like birds and beasts.
The steward glanced at Ning Xin'er, looking worried.
This woman, from the moment she arrived, started stirring up trouble and trying to sow discord between the old lady and the head of the family. If this continues, the Bo family will definitely be thrown into chaos by her.
No, we must get the head of the family to kick her out as soon as possible.
Ning Xin'er was unaware that someone was watching her. She appeared considerate and obedient, saying, "Auntie, calm down. Your health is the most important thing."
Ning Wanzhen's lips were taut, and her chest heaved.
Ning Xin'er held her slightly cold hand, seemingly to comfort her but actually to stir up trouble, "Auntie, what you just said was really too much."
Ning Wanzhen's brow furrowed deeply, her anger intensifying. "I'm going too far? They're the ones who've gone too far."
Ning Xin'er's lips twitched, and she lowered her voice, "Auntie, did you see them overstepping their bounds?"
