Chapter 1111: Can’t I Come
by xennovel“Boss where to first?”
After getting in the car Long Yi asked.
Today, the core principle is to keep a low profile so they rented a black Honda Accord for the day.
Otherwise, the moment he stepped out the entire Yunquan County would know.
“Let’s head to the Lotus Charity working group here first.”
Xu Shaochen thought for a moment then spoke checking his watch. It was 9:30 AM, already work hours.
Long Yi drove toward the destination of Lotus Charity’s local working group. He had scouted it yesterday.
A competent driver must know the way when the boss needs to go somewhere.
Although he wasn’t the driver, his main job was as a bodyguard.
Lotus Charity’s working group is set in the southernmost part of the county.
The car drove for over twenty minutes before reaching the destination.
Arriving, Xu Shaochen’s face darkened even before stepping out of the car.
Several cars parked in the yard were Audis, Cadillacs, Lexuses, and BMW 3-series, costing tens of thousands.
He was aware of what Lotus Charity employees earned.
Moreover, Lotus Charity was newly established, where’d they get money for cars?
Long Yi and Long Er exchanged glances, shook their heads slightly, someone was in trouble again.
These idiots weren’t low-key. More importantly, didn’t they know how to act? Even knowing Xu Shaochen was in Yunquan County for safety’s sake they’d drive beaters for a few days.
Once the car stopped, Xu Shaochen stepped out, heading to the three-story office building with Long Yi and Long Er.
“What’s your business?”
Upon entering, the receptionist was fixing her makeup without looking up.
“Is the company paying you to do makeup here?”
Xu Shaochen asked coldly.
Hearing this, the receptionist was angered, jerking her head up. Her face changed instantly, dropping her mirror and pencil.
“Xu… Chairman Xu how… how come you’re here.”
The receptionist stammered. Exaggerating would be saying the sweat washed her makeup away.
She recognized Xu Shaochen quickly not surprising.
Since a large photo of Xu Shaochen hung on the entrance wall.
Being the receptionist, if she didn’t recognize it would be strange.
“Why can’t I come?”
Xu Shaochen asked.
“No… no.” She spoke flusteredly, “I’ll inform the manager.”
“No need, I’ve eyes to look, legs to walk.”
Xu Shaochen coldly retorted then turned, heading upstairs.
Watching his back, the receptionist was terrified.
Done for, dead this time.
Why did Chairman Xu come suddenly, no one’s informed?
Must inform the manager to prepare.
She quickly took out a phone to text the manager.
Unfortunately, busy with the secretary the manager hadn’t checked the phone discarded on the sofa.
“Hey, Chairman Xu’s here in Yunquan County yet Manager Chen dared drive those cars! Bold!”
“What do you know? Not like Chairman Xu comes. Even if he did, he’d inform, then watch Chen dare drive.”
“Aren’t all managers greedy? Doing charity, saving themselves first right?”
“Enough, keep quiet. Those troublemakers could report us to Manager Chen.”
Climbing, Xu Shaochen overheard gossip about group leaders.
“Let me tell you…”
A young man with glasses wanted to share when he noticed Xu Shaochen coming.
He froze, face changing, instantly jumping up, “Chairman Xu!”
“Hey, scaring us glasses boy, funny?”
“Yeah, can’t be Chairman Xu arrived today. He arrived in Yunquan yesterday.”
They doubted, thinking glasses boy joked.
Glasses boy sent discreet signals, anxious.
Finally realizing trouble, they turned around.
“Chairman Xu!”
“Xu…”
Everyone stood straight, nervous, sweating…
Unsure if Xu Shaochen overheard the talk.
“Where’s Manager Chen?”
Xu Shaochen asked expressionless.
They exchanged glances, silent.
Glasses boy stepped forward, “Chairman Xu, Manager Chen’s office is on the 3rd floor, all leaders are there.”
Staring as though seeing a ghost, disbelief.
Xu Shaochen nodded and headed to the third floor with Long Yi and Long Er.
“Glasses, are you mad? Scared of Manager Chen’s revenge?”
“Yes, standing out gets shot, haven’t you heard?”
After Xu Shaochen left, they criticized glasses boy’s recklessness.
“Afraid? This’s a chance to fire Chen the Peel. After today, Chen’s still manager?”
Adjusting glasses, he spoke disdainfully.
Hearing they understood smiled happily.
“Glasses, surprising you’re sneaky, aptly named.”
“Nonsense, that’s smart.”
“Not what you call a man!”
Third floor.
Directly heading to the general manager’s office.
“Manager, hurry!”
At the doorway, obscene noise from the office.
His face turned terrifyingly cold.
“Thump!”
Long Yi roughly kicked the office door open.
Xu Shaochen entered coldly.
“Who the hell…”
A man in his 30s hurriedly pulled pants then whitened seeing Xu Shaochen.
The woman before the desk scrambled for her skirt, trembling.
“Chair… Chairman Xu, you didn’t inform your coming, I’d have… organized a welcome.”
Manager Chen stammered forcing a smile uglier than crying.
