Hua Qianâs expression changed when he heard this.
Then, she said scornfully, âIâm indeed an illegitimate daughter and Iâm extremely vain. However, I have a bottom line. In your case, youâre different. You have a problem with your character and have no view of limits. Itâs already gone to this point, and you still think that youâre not wrong?â
âHua Qian, donât go too far,â Zhang Shanshan said in anger, âYou donât have to add insult to my injury. People like you will always be the most hateful!â
Jiang Lingâer smiled sarcastically. Hua Qian might be extremely vain, but at least she knew what she could and could not do. However, Zhang Shanshan was clearly a woman who didnât know her own limits.
At this moment, she couldnât be bothered to watch the two of them fight.
She said, âGeneral Manager Zhong, I have other things to do, so I wonât be staying any longer. You have to rectify the company and severely punish the employees who have made mistakes. Donât show any mercy to outsiders, okay?â
âDonât worry, Maâam,â Zhong Wuxi said respectfully. âIâll take care of it.â
âAlright, Iâll wait for news from you.â Jiang Lingâer nodded and said, âIâm cutting 50% off from your year-end bonus. Consider it a lesson for not managing the company well.â
Zhong Wuxi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that it was only a money deduction.
âThank you for your forgiveness, Maâam,â said Zhong Wuxi.
âAlright, hurry up and deal with this matter,â Jiang Lingâer waved her hand and said.
âUnderstood. Take care, Maâam.â Zhong Wuxi nodded.
Back in the car, Jiang Lingâer sighed.
Wen Nuan saw how unhappy she was and said, âFortunately, we didnât lose anything. If Zhang Shanshan really sat in your office and did horrible things, wouldnât the outcome have been even worse?â
â I thought that the companyâs atmosphere would be good,â Jiang Lingâer said, feeling like crying. âBut today, Iâve really been slapped in the face!â
âThatâs true. Itâs really embarrassing that something like this could happen,â Wen Nuan said.
After a pause, she continued, âBut I donât understand. You can say that Zhang Shanshan lied to others. After all, sheâs an outsider and didnât even know who the CEO was. However, as for the companyâs employees, how could they have been fooled? Could it be that even they donât know who their boss is? Especially that front desk manager, heâs also an idiot! He even threatened to call the police on you. Iâm dying of laughter!â
As she said that, she smiled and went on, âLingâer, tell me. What kind of method did Zhang Shanshan use to make your employees think that she was the CEO?â
âTo be honest,â Jiang Lingâer said helplessly, âThe only person in the company who really knows my identity is the general manager, Zhong Wuxi. There are also a few higher-ups who know about me, but they have never seen my face before.â
âNo way,â Wen Nuan said in disbelief. âYouâre really a mysterious boss!â
âTo be honest, Iâm just keeping a low profile,â said Jiang Lingâer. âHowever, I didnât expect someone to take advantage of that.â
After thinking for a moment, she continued, âIt mustâve been very simple for Zhang Shanshan to fool those employees into thinking she was the president.
After all, she just needed to dress up every day and take the CEOâs exclusive elevator to my office every time. At first, she probably wanted to clean in her motherâs place to get close to me, but she soon realized that I wasnât around at all.â
Jiang Lingâer took a deep breath and went on, âSo, Zhang Shanshan and her mother worked together and acted out a scene where the cleaning lady greeted the companyâs CEO. They just needed to do that to successfully convince the staff at the front desk.â
âLingâer, how did you know that Zhang Shanshanâs mother would do that?â Wen Nuan asked in confusion.
Jiang Lingâer calmly replied, âBased on my experience, if her mother didnât know anything, she wouldnât have been so carefree after losing the keys to my office,â
âWhatâs the use of doing that?â Wen Nuan said in disdain. âNo matter what, itâs just an impersonation. The company wonât give you any dividends, and youâll be exposed sooner or later. When Zhang Shanshan impersonated you, wasnât she afraid of meeting some higher-ups who have met you before? For example, meeting General Manager Zhong?â
Jiang Lingâer smiled and said, âI guess itâs vanity. Besides, itâs almost impossible for them to meet each other. The entire floor where my office is belongs to me. To reduce expenses, I didnât even hire a secretary. Zhong Wuxi knows that Iâm never upstairs, so he wouldnât go to my office to look for me. Even if there was something, he would call me first. Therefore, that floor is either owned by me or the cleaning lady.â
Wen Nuan hesitated for a moment before saying, âLingâer, if I may ask, do you still dare to let General Manager Zhong manage the company after such a serious incident?â
