Wen Wanyu giggled. “Of course, the chairman is above the CEO.
CEO is the chief executive officer, responsible for the company’s
operations and only second to the chairman.”
“Oh.”
Xiao Shun lightly tapped the table and looked at Dong Yongnian, as if
suddenly understanding something. “So I’m above you!”
Yao
Cen and the others looked at him in unison.
“Why
are you all looking at me like that?” Xiao Shun glanced at the
three of them.
“I’m
the Chairman of Golden Harrow, so I am indeed above him.” Yao
Cen turned her head to the side, pretending she didn’t hear anything.
She shouldn’t have brought him out in the first place.
Wen
Wanyu laughed and teased Yao Cen, “Cen, I don’t think your
husband has really had that much, but he’s already so drunk.”
Dong
Yongnian’s expression was serious as he shook his head. “Mr.
Xiao, this joke is not funny at all.”
Since
they didn’t believe him, Xiao Shun took out his phone from his pocket
and dialed Wen Guangliang’s number.
Soon
after the call was connected, he put it on speakerphone and asked
directly, “What’s the name of the CEO you sent to Golden
Harrow?”
“Dong
Yongnian. He is a professional manager and he was the CEO of my
cosmetics company. He is a talented person. I think Golden Harrow
will need him, so I transferred him there. What’s wrong?” Wen
Guangliang said.
Dong
Yongnian immediately recognized Wen Guangliang’s voice and looked at
Xiao Shun in shock.
Although
he was transferred from the capital to Stillwater, his compensation
was directly increased by fifty percent.
Although
Golden Harrow was a local company, it was much larger than the
company he used to manage. In terms of both compensation and career
prospects, it was a promotion for him.
But…
who the hell would have thought that this bumpkin in front of him was
the Chairman of Golden Harrow!?
“Oh,
nothing. I’m just having lunch with Mr. Dong.” Xiao Shun smiled.
“Really?
Do you know each other? That’s great, I was afraid you might have
some objections to him.” Wen Guangliang laughed heartily.
In
fact, he had thought about whether it was appropriate to completely
hand over the company to those two people, but now he knew nothing
about the operation of the company and there was really no one who
could do the job, so he temporarily only had this one choice.
Dong
Yongnian sat down, smiled gently, and nodded slightly. “Thank
you for your generosity, Mr. Chairman.”
“When
did you become the chairman of Golden Harrow?” Yao Cen asked
Xiao Shun in surprise.
Golden
Harrow was the company owned by the Sikong family. Just no matter
what happened, this bastard had a grudge with the Sikong family, and
since the Sikong family was the major shareholder of Golden Harrow,
so how could they possibly elect him as the chairman? Wasn’t that
crazy?
“Ah,
it’s just recently. I haven’t had a chance to tell you,” Xiao
Shun said casually.
Yao
Cen, Wen Wanyu, and Dong Yongnian were all stunned.
Especially
Wen Wanyu and Dong Yongnian. They looked at each other with
disbelief.
Her
husband made such a big thing and as his wife, she knew nothing about
it?
“Are
you two really married?” Wen Wanyu looked at the two of them
with a puzzled expression.
Golden
Harrow was the largest enterprise in Stillwater, the largest taxpayer
in the city, and the pillar of the Sikong family.
But
Xiao Shun suddenly became the chairman of Golden Harrow?
Not
to mention Wen Wanyu, even Yao Cen doubted whether this bastard
really regarded her as his wife?
He
only said “I haven’t had a chance to tell you” about such a
big thing.
What
did he think of her?
But
when she recalled Xiao Shun’s previous behavior, she realized that
maybe he really thought it was not a big deal. If he were anyone
else, how could he bear to keep such a big thing to himself?
What
was wrong with him?
Yao
Cen was a little speechless for a while and squeezed out a very
unnatural smile. “He is just like that. He never discusses
anything with me before doing anything.”
Wen
Wanyu smiled and suddenly felt a little lost in her heart.
She
thought she was lucky to marry Dong Yongnian. Although Dong Yongnian
had been married before, he was educated and cultured, he was the CEO
of a company, and he had an annual salary of five million. He was
simply a perfect lover, and most women would want to marry him.
But
now compared to Yao Cen, she suddenly felt that she was far behind
Yao Cen and found herself in the middle of nowhere.
Perhaps
it was just a strange emotion just everyone would sometimes have.
They were angry not because their lives were not good, but because
others had better lives.
But
the biggest disappointment might come from Xiao Shun’s change. How
could a useless waste suddenly become some chairman? She couldn’t
figure it out.
“With
your husband’s status, maybe you can stay at home and be a housewife,
and you certainly don’t have to work,” Wen Wanyu said with a
bitter tone.
Yao
Cen didn’t notice it. Wen Wanyu was already one of her few sincere
friends. The two were very similar in terms of family background,
education, interests, and hobbies.
A
housewife…
She
was a little stunned. According to their current progress, it was
probably not possible for a while, and besides, she had never had
such an idea.
She
grew up watching the Yao family look down on her father Yao Jianguo,
and she was determined to make something of herself so that other
people in the Yao family could see how wrong they were.
Now
that her family had been kicked out of the Yao family, although she
didn’t care about that status, she became more determined to achieve
something.
“He’s
unreliable,” Yao Cen glanced at Xiao Shun.
Xiao
Shun looked at her innocently. “How am I unreliable…”
After
chatting for a while, the four of them finished their lunch and went
their separate ways. Xiao Shun and Yao Cen drove back to the company.
After all, as the responsible people of the enterprise, they didn’t
have weekends.
