Chapter 47

Wang Qing didn’t dare to hide it and honestly told her Mr. Zhang’s address.

She hesitated, “…Are you going to visit him?”

Wang Qing secretly mourned Zhang Jianian in her heart. Anyone blocked by President Chu would be too miserable.

Just as Chu Chu wanted to answer, she glanced at Wang Qing’s slightly embarrassed look and realized, “Is it not good for me to go to his house?”

Chu Chu thought about it in another way. If she asked for leave and was harassed by her boss, she would probably be angry.

Wang Qing wanted to frankly say yes, but she couldn’t directly attack President Chu that way.

She said, “If you care about his condition, he will definitely be happy. You can send a message.”

What she meant was to not make a special trip to his door as it could be scary.

Chu Chu thought about it.

She made Zhang Jianian do her work everyday which was unkind. So it was better to wait a day.

She started working, only to find that many things were messed up and got busy.

There were many departments in Yinda investment, not to mention the ongoing investment projects. The huge amount of information instantly crushed Chu Chu. Zhang Jianian’s existence was like a knot tied on countless pieces of string. He organized all the trivial matters and passed them to Chu Chu for questioning. Now that the entanglement disappeared, the thousands of thin ropes were unraveling and Chu Chu faced all kinds of irregular things she was completely unaware of.

In the afternoon, Chu Chu couldn’t hold it anymore.

She called Wang Qing and said with a headache, “Can you prioritize everything and give it to me? I will understand what needs to be done urgently.”

Everyone reported their work fast, making Chu Chu feel that the work was extremely difficult and it only made her upset. In the past, Zhang Jianian had prepared all the information and put the important tasks that required her to make decisions at the top. The trivial matters were solved first.

Wang Qing was taken aback and said, “Okay, wait a moment.”

Wang Qing was afraid of President Chu’s anger and hurriedly sorted out the contents of the work. But she was just a secretary and didn’t have a deep understanding of investment and business. Wang Qing’s rank wasn’t as good as Zhang Jianian. It was difficult for her to talk directly with the company’s big shots, her communication skills weren’t good and the fundamental problem couldn’t be solved.

Zhang Jianian investigated the company from the perspective of the boss and presented the most critical content to President Chu, saving time and energy for the boss. Others lacked his vision and experience and even if you draw a tiger using a cat as a model; (m. to pretend to do sth without understanding it) one couldn’t imitate the essence.

But that couldn’t be Wang Qing’s fault. If she had reached Zhang Jianian’s level, she would have been promoted long ago.

Chu Chu sighed and slumped to the back of her chair. For the first time, she felt that Mr. Zhang was too much pressed with work on usual days. She suggested, “Can’t we find another helper? If things go on like this, wouldn’t Zhang Jianian be exhausted?”

Wang Qing said cautiously, “…The company used to have other chief assistants.”

Chu Chu said in surprise, “Then what about them? Why haven’t I seen them?”

Wang Qing: “…You said that they weren’t compatible with the company’s corporate culture, so you let them leave.”

In other words, she was disguised and let them leave.

The original female partner hated the will and thoughts of others controlling her the most. The chief assistant was actually a senior management position with certain real power. How could she tolerate someone affecting her power? The incompetent ones, the disobedient ones, the unpleasant ones were fired and only Zhang Jianian stayed behind and became a treasure.

Chu Yanyin used to squeeze many people into Yinda investment and now Zhang Jianian was the only one left.

Chu Chu really didn’t understand the company’s past history. Looking at the complicated affairs, she finally got up and said, “I’d better go and visit him.”

Chu Chu: Whether it’s a real visit or a fake caring, I don’t want to stay in the company to handle work anyway.

Chu Chu asked Wang Qing to call a car for her. She took the coat on the hanger, packed up and prepared to leave. Wang Qing secretly sent a message to Mr. Zhang to inform him in private. President Chu’s sudden visit would inevitably give people great pressure and Mr. Zhang must be prepared.

Chu Chu didn’t know of that. She drove to Zhang Jianian’s address, but the car stopped at a narrow intersection.

The driver said apologetically, “President Chu, I’m sorry, it seems that I can’t get in ahead.”

Chu Chu looked out of the car window blankly. Private cars were parked on both sides of the road, blocking the road so tightly that it was impossible to pass. The mottled residents upstairs were covered with green creepers, the aunt carrying a grocery basket was standing on the roadside and chatting, strange small advertisements were posted on the walls and the pictures of fireworks and sense of life greatly impacted her senses.

She didn’t know how long she hadn’t seen such a place. It seemed to be insulated from the world she lived in after transmigrating in the novel.

Chu Chu in a high-definition suit with a famous bag on her shoulder, stood in front of a door of a unit building. A group of retired old men who were playing chess gathered under a tree. When they saw the uninvited guest with a peculiar style, one of them asked, “Girl, who are you looking for?”

“Hello, which side is unit 3?” Chu Chu asked politely.

The enthusiastic uncles pointed at her direction and gossiped, “Oh, we haven’t seen you before!”

“Well, I’m here to find a friend.”

“Boyfriend?”

“…No.”

Obviously, the retired grandfathers neither loved to surf the Internet nor understood the Internet. No one recognized Chu Chu. She followed the instructions and found Unit 3. There was no elevator in the residential building and the newspaper box on the side was covered with thick dust. Chu Chu climbed the stairs, full of suspicion.

Why would Zhang Jianian live here?

Even if Chu Chu didn’t understand the structure of the fund company’s department, she was not a fool without common sense. Zhang Jianian was the same as vice president and his annual salary was bound to start in the millions. He even owned a certain equity and had dividends. He was transferred from Qisheng Group to Yinda Investment. He once worked for Chu Yanyin and he probably had the equity of Qisheng.

Wang Qing could rent a room near the company. With Zhang Jianian’s income, it wasn’t impossible for him to buy a house. In Chu Chu’s imagination, financial elites would never live in old residential buildings, which was completely incompatible with the personality.

Zhang Jianian worked during the day to deal with projects worth hundreds of millions and went home at night to sleep in a dilapidated residential building. It was literally tearful for those who heard it and sad for those who saw it. Chu Chu was sad when she thought about it and wanted to give him a raise.

According to the address, Chu Chu found Zhang Jianian’s door. She wanted to ring the doorbell, but found that it was broken, so she knocked helplessly on the heavy iron door.
