Chapter 169: The Dead Duck Is Back in Business!

Zhiqin was anxious, damn it! Jiang Jingya was getting old. How could she possibly be a match for that little wretch Luo NingxiShe hurried back to the hospital ward.After Yu Chengnan woke up from his c...Zhang Xiao, after all, was a manager. As soon as he spoke, other employees chimed in.

If Du Ming is really a high-ranking executive of Shengshi, if we curry favor with him, won't promotions and salary increases be easy in the future

"Someone immediately said, 'Manager Zhang, Mr. Du's status is extraordinary. We'll need to find a different way to address him in the future...' "

"That's right, call him Du Shao! When people come to our Hongda Planning Department, they are experiencing life."

"Now we're colleagues, who knows maybe in a while he'll go home and inherit his family fortune. At that point, even our big boss will have to toast to him!"

Everyone was extremely flattering. When Du Ming casually said he was thirsty, someone immediately brought him a cup of water. Even when he wanted to smoke, two or three male employees offered their lighters.

Du Ming was thoroughly enjoying this feeling of being surrounded by admirers, it was well worth the rent for this Maybach.

However, there are also a few who are insensitive. Besides Li Bochen, there is another male colleague named Zhou Kai'an.

Two people sat facing each other. Zhou Kai'an was a few years older than Li Boheng. Looking at the crowd fawning over Du Ming, he sneered, "A pack of sycophants, they've turned the planning department into a mess!"

Li Boche secretly sized up Zhou Kai'an. Zhou Kai'an had good work ability, but he was not good at socializing. Last year, during an assessment, he would have passed and been promoted with a raise, but Zhang Xiao forcefully ruled him as a failure. Privately, however, he gave him the most troublesome tasks.

In Li Bochen's eyes, Zhou Kai'an was a talented individual.

“Now they’ve all distanced themselves from me because of Du Ming. Aren’t you afraid of being implicated”

When Li Bochen first arrived at the company, he attracted attention because of his outstanding temperament. However, as Du Ming flaunted his wealth day by day, and Zhang Xiao was convinced that he was the executive arranged by Shengshi, many others gradually distanced themselves from Li Bochen.

Zhou Kai'an was taken aback. He hadn't thought that Li Bochen was a high executive of Shengshi, he just couldn't stand Du Ming.

A wry smile.

"Even if I distance myself from you, they will still ostracize me. I'm used to it."

Li Bochen gave Zhou Kai'an a meaningful look. "Do your best. In the future, if there is an opportunity, Zhang Xiao's position will be yours."

Zhou Kai'an felt a deep sense of melancholy.

After being suppressed by Zhang Xiao for so long, he no longer had any hope of promotion.

The reason I haven't quit yet is that I've been with HTC for a long time and have a sense of belonging here.

"Let's talk later, I'll probably stay at HTC for the rest of my life."

"Don't get discouraged too soon." Li Boche swept his gaze over Zhang Xiao and Du Ming, "They can't keep this up for long."

Zhou Kai'an, upon hearing this, felt a sudden surge of heat in his chest. Although Li Bochen spoke in a calm tone, his words seemed to carry an undeniable weight, forcing Zhou Kai'an into reluctant acknowledgement and submission. Could there be more to him than met the eye

……

Although Luo Ningxi hadn't sent any more messages to Li Bochen, she was still troubled and agitated. Even when she reviewed the documents submitted by her secretary, all she could see in her mind were the three words "Li Bochen" flashing repeatedly.

Damn Li Bochen, he even brought breakfast but doesn't know how to say a few kind words to coax her

Just then, her phone suddenly rang. Luo Ningxi reflexively looked at it, and it was Luna calling.

Just then, Luna called. Could it be that Li Bochen was in trouble

Luo Ningxi frowned, becoming tense again, and pressed the answer button, "Hello"

Luna was very quiet over there, her voice as gentle as ever, “Xixi, are you alright”

"I'm fine, don't worry." Luo Ningxi nodded slightly and then tentatively asked, "You called me now, is something wrong with Li Chen"

"No, he's been performing perfectly lately. Zhang Xiao wants to find fault but can't. However..."

A turn of events immediately made Luo Ningxi's heart race. Luo Ningxi pressed, "But what"

“Kiki, Li Chen left early yesterday afternoon and was an hour late this morning. He also looked particularly pale and exhausted. Didn't you wear him out” Luna’s eyes twinkled as she asked with a playful smile, every word laced with subtle probing.

Luna originally wanted to ask Li Bochen what he was doing for those few hours every night when he didn't go home...

But when these words fell on Luo Ningxi's ears, they were completely different!

Arriving late and leaving early, the next day was especially tired, as if being squeezed dry...

A buzzing filled Luningxi's ears, like countless bees flying, coalescing into a possibility that threatened to explode her mind—

The duck is back to its old tricks!omething. "Big brother, I heard before that Mr. Mo from Shengshi Group particularly dislikes bribery and improper relationships between men and women during project negotiations. Old Four probably doe...
