Chapter 23: The Opponent
As night fell, there was a lot of traffic in front of the Cheng family's mansion, and guests dressed in fancy clothes came to the hall one after another under the diligent guidance of the servants. At this moment, the hall is already full of fragrant clothes and sideburns, smiling and smiling, a lively scene.
As soon as Guan Wenxiang entered the hall, someone with sharp eyes noticed it, "Ah, the president of the Guan Group is also here!" β
In an instant, many people surrounded him and greeted him one after another, and Guan Wenxiang also nodded his head to greet him.
At this moment, Guan Wenxiang seems to have become the focus of all eyes in this hall.
"President Guan's visit to the Humble House really makes our Cheng family shine!" I don't know when, Mrs. Cheng also came to everyone's side accompanied by Cheng Qixin.
"Old Madam Cheng is polite! Since today is a good day for Ling Sun, it is natural for us and other business colleagues to come to congratulate him. The one next to him is Ling Sun, and he is really a talent! Guan Wenxiang looked at Mrs. Cheng with a smile on his face.
Mrs. Cheng also smiled: "President Guan is really good at talking, who doesn't know that President Guan has always been the object of competition for the daughters of various families, and my family Qixin will be compared in front of you!" β
"The old lady laughed!"
Seeing that the guests arrived, the most important event of the night began. Mrs. Cheng came to the rostrum, and the people in the hall immediately fell silent.
Many people know in their hearts that this banquet of the Cheng family is not just a birthday for a young man, but more likely to be a transfer of power. Whether the young man named Cheng Qixin has the ability to take charge of such a large group company, whether Cheng will bring about a series of changes as a result, or whether he will find new partners, these are all things that the people present urgently need to know.
After finishing the polite welcome speech, Mrs. Cheng smiled and glanced at everyone present, and then continued: "What I am going to say next, I think you have already guessed.
"For more than ten years, Cheng's has been run by me alone, with the help of many friends present, and it has been quite smooth over the years. However, this business field should always be a world for young people, and now that I am old, I am really a little overwhelmed, so I have discussed with the board of directors and decided to appoint Qixin as the general manager of Cheng's family, and I would like to ask all my business colleagues to help me in the futureββ"
And so it was!
Guan Wenxiang sighed slightly, this result was something he had already guessed, but the purpose of his coming here was to see if Cheng Qixin was an opponent to guard against, after all, the Cheng Group was one of the few consortiums that could compete with the Guan family.
It's just a pity that so far he has not received any useful information.
"Mr. Guan!"
A sudden voice interrupted Guan Wenxiang's contemplation, and he raised his head, and his eyes lit up: the woman in front of him had a sweet face like an angel, her delicate facial features were impeccable, and the touching smile on her face made those who saw her feel like a spring breeze.
"Miss is looking for something about Guan?" Although he has attended many large and small banquets, Guan Wenxiang is sure that he has never seen this beautiful woman before.
As if sensing Guan Wenxiang's appreciative eyes, Lu Yunyi showed an even more charming smile: "My surname is Lu, why is Mr. Guan here alone?" β
Surname Lu?
"Isn't Ling Zun Lu Weihao?" I have long heard that the daughter of the Lu family is a great beauty, and it seems that the rumors are really not exaggerated.
"Mr. Kwan guessed right!" Lu Yunyi was also looking at Guan Wenxiang at this moment, Guan Wenxiang's handsome face and mature manhood on his body deeply attracted her.
"Yunyi, so you're here!" The sudden appearance of a man interrupted the conversation between the two.
Guan Wenxiang turned his head, Cheng Qixin had already walked over, glanced at him and said, "It seems that President Guan is also a good and pure person!" β
Guan Wenxiang smiled and said, "Young Master Cheng guessed right!" β
Looking at the man in front of him who can call the wind and rain in the business world, Cheng Qixin has complicated thoughts in his heart, maybe after he takes over Cheng's family, the first enemy he will face in the shopping mall is Guan Wenxiang!
What are the chances of him winning?
And Guan Wenxiang also carefully looked at the young man in front of him, who was still a little sickly, is the reputation of "financial genius" really deserved?
The night air was a little cold, and Cheng Qixin couldn't help but cough a few times.
When Lu Yunyi heard this, she hurriedly asked with concern: "Qixin, are you okay?" β
Guan Wenxiang also said: "Young Master Cheng, doesn't it matter? β
"Nothing!"
Stopping the cough, Cheng Qixin said: "President Guan, you can call me by my name directly in the future, please don't mention the word 'young master' again!" β
Guan Wenxiang smiled slightly and said, "Then I might as well be respectful!" β
At this time, a petite figure hurriedly walked towards the three of them, and I don't know if it was because of the hurry or other reasons, the man's steps seemed to be a little unsteady.
Ye Xiaojing took the medicine and looked around, but she couldn't find where Cheng Qixin was, fortunately she heard the cough, it's so late, what is the young master doing in the garden?
The wind outside is still strong tonight, and the young master is not staying in the hall, so he will catch a cold.
Thinking all the way, it wasn't until she walked in front of Cheng Qixin that Ye Xiaojing stood still and said, "Young Master, your medicine!" β
Before Cheng Qixin could speak, Guan Wenxiang had already let out an exclamation: "Ye Xiaojing?!" β
Ye Xiaojing raised her head, and was shocked to find that the tall figure standing on the side was the man she had been thinking about again and again in her heart these days-Guan Wenxiang.
"Ahh Total, President! Ye Xiaojing quickly lowered her head, and her face involuntarily warmed up.
"Ye Xiaojing, why are you here?"
Guan Wenxiang frowned and looked at her, and suddenly remembered what Ye Xiaoman said to him - "Xiaojing has found a new job", is this her new job?
"President Guan knows her?" Looking at the appearance of the two, Cheng Qixin also frowned, Ye Xiaojing actually knew Guan Wenxiang, what is the origin of this woman?
Guan Wenxiang said in a deep voice: "Miss Ye used to be my assistant. β
"Huh?" Hearing this answer, Lu Yunyi next to him couldn't help but let out a sigh of surprise.
Cheng Qixin also looked at Ye Xiaojing in surprise, this stupid girl can actually be the assistant to the president?
"Yes, it's just that for some reason, Miss Ye took the initiative to resign from her position-"
Hearing this explanation, Cheng Qixin couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart: Why do you say it so well, you also know that it must be that stupid girl who resigned because her work ability was too poor to do it. However, from the point of view of employing people, this is just the case with the president.
Not to mention that Cheng Qixin was secretly guessing, Lu Yunyi also looked at Ye Xiaojing with surprise on her face: "Miss Ye, I didn't expect you to be the assistant to the president of the Guan family!" β
"I, I-" Ye Xiaojing really longed for a crack to appear in the ground at this time, so that she could get in.
Glancing at her deeply, Guan Wenxiang said: "Everyone has their own ambitions, maybe the current work makes Miss Ye feel more comfortable!" β
