Chapter 1028: Chapter 1017: Mr. Ning, Everything Is Up to You
“Manager Ning, since we’re already talking, let’s not beat around the bush.”
Liu Yong reassured everyone with a glance and then looked at Ning Fan, saying, “I’ll give you an opportunity, let’s both take a step back.”
“Oh? How do we both take a step back?”
Ning Fan raised an eyebrow and looked at Liu Yong, his eyes calm, “I’m all ears.”
He displayed a playful smile, as if he were a tourist watching monkeys jumping around in a zoo, filled with amusement.
But Liu Yong, already immersed in the joy of recovering some ground, had no hint of Ning Fan’s change in expression.
“If you want us old hands to return to Xu Corporation and stabilize the situation at the Dragon City Branch Company, it’s not impossible.”
Liu Yong carefully chose his words and continued, “First, you must ensure that the matters of our dereliction of duty, leaking company secrets, and tax evasion are kept from that girl Xu Ruolan.”
“Secondly, in future company endeavors, within our respective departments, we must have absolute authority. I can accept your position as Manager, but from now on, you don’t need to stretch your hands too far, just play within your own patch.”
“I wonder, Manager Ning, what do you think of this offer?”
After saying this, Liu Yong exhaled deeply, smiling at Ning Fan, awaiting his response.
At that moment, Liu Yong could see no other solution to the chaos at the Dragon City Branch Company than the collective return of the leadership to stabilize matters.
In his view, Ning Fan conceding to him was simply a matter of time!
“Manager Liu… this can’t go on like this.”
Zhao Qingming, who had been silent and trying to avoid Ning Fan’s attention, couldn’t stay quiet any longer when he saw Liu Yong negotiating conditions.
“We had agreed, you would join Zhao Corporation, positions in every department have been prepared for you, our Chairman is very sincere!”
Zhao Qingming spoke hurriedly with an urgent gaze.
This time he came with a task, and if the Chairman knew he messed it up upon returning.
The security of his position as Vice President would be uncertain.
Facing Zhao Qingming’s inquiry, Liu Yong frowned slightly and said, “President Zhao, times change, we acted impulsively earlier, but deep down, we still feel a sense of belonging to Xu Corporation, so please refrain from mentioning joining Zhao Corporation again.”
Seeing Zhao Qingming was about to speak further, Liu Yong waved his hand, interrupting directly, “President Zhao did mention coming to reconnect, since it’s after work hours, let’s not talk business.”
“Ha, still feel connected to Xu Corporation?”
Ning Fan, who had been silently listening to Liu Yong’s demands, suddenly stood up, showing a mocking smile, speaking word by word, “But I believe Xu Corporation doesn’t need you dogs.”
Xu Corporation doesn’t need you—dogs!
Ning Fan’s voice was not loud, yet thunderous, leaving Liu Yong frozen on the spot.
“You… you called me a dog?”
Liu Yong could hardly believe his ears.
“Calling you dogs is flattering; dogs recognize their owners, while you are just a group of scum who sell out for profit.”
Ning Fan no longer looked at Liu Yong and turned to Ouyang Feifei, raising his hand to say, “It’s about time, let these restless scums settle down.”
“Yes!”
Ouyang Feifei responded joyfully.
“Listening to your nonsense spoiled my appetite for supper.”
Ouyang Feifei’s eyes flashed coldly as she strode towards Liu Yong.
“What are you doing… Ah!”
Liu Yong screamed.
Unnoticed, a gleaming dagger appeared in Ouyang Feifei’s hand.
This dagger was now embedded in Liu Yong’s hand.
Blood… continually flowed, and before Liu Yong had a chance to retaliate, Ouyang Feifei swiftly pulled out the dagger, stabbing it into Liu Yong’s abdomen.
“Phew…”
A dull sound.
Blood mixed with intestines and unknown organs leaked from the gap in Liu Yong’s abdomen.
A trembling Liu Yong hadn’t even managed a shout before Ouyang Feifei slapped his mouth, dislocating his jaw.
“If anyone dares to utter a single word, he is your example.”
After wiping off the dagger’s blood on Liu Yong’s white shirt, Ouyang Feifei coldly looked around at everyone present.
All those caught in her gaze were as silent as the grave, not daring to make a single breath.
These old hands at scheming in the company could play office politics, but they had never faced such a gruesome scene.
The pungent smell of blood spread across the presidential suite.
Liu Yong lay on the ground, already losing more air than he took in.
It was clear he was approaching death.
But including the head of the business department who had been in cahoots with him, Zhao Qingming who had been trying hard to recruit him, and the leaders of various departments stirred by him to collectively resign and force a change, none dared to step forward, let alone check on Liu Yong’s condition.
“Project files, hand them all over, and the company proposal files taken with you when resigning, put them down then…”
Ouyang Feifei pointed at the door, saying, “You can leave.”
Upon hearing there’s a chance to leave alive, these leaders, scared to their wits, had no words of dissent, behaving like grandchildren.
The Shadow Team members accepted the USB drives, memory cards, and proposals handed by various leaders, watching them approach the door.
“If I hear any rumors about today’s events outside, remind yourselves Liu Yong’s fate today could be yours tomorrow.”
Ouyang Feifei spun the dagger in her delicate palm and smiled.
As her words fell, those preparing to leave trembled, with two unable to bear the fear, even wetting themselves, drawing contemptuous glances from the Shadow Team members at the door.
After everyone had left, Ouyang Feifei’s icy demeanor melted away, she approached Ning Fan from behind, carefully massaging his shoulders, softly asking, “Does my handling satisfy you, Mr. Ning?”
“Hmm.”
Ning Fan nodded, not adding a word.
He had long intended to cultivate Ouyang Feifei’s ability to handle affairs independently; today was a small test of sorts.
“With these, the company’s predicament should be resolved soon.”
Ouyang Feifei said gleefully.
“It’s not that simple.”
As he spoke, Ning Fan slightly furrowed his brow, “Zhao Corporation is also quite the troublesome matter.”
