Inheritance of Two Trillion-Chapter 79 - The Infamous_1
79: Chapter 79 The Infamous_1
79 -79 The Infamous_1
A deputy project manager went mad during a project reporting meeting?
The attendees, including Master Song Kai, looked at each other in dismay, speechless.
Li Mingtong racked his brains, exhausted his wisdom, gambled his future, and desperately dug a huge pit for Bai Xiaosheng but, despite all his calculations, he did not anticipate that Bai Xiaosheng and the master were old acquaintances.
A farce, an exercise in futility.
In the end, it was he himself who was buried in the pit!
At the instant of an easy success, experiencing that ecstatic moment, realizing oneself to be the biggest fool—the harsh “truth”—would send anyone’s emotions soaring and crashing, leading to madness.
Moreover, Li Mingtong had long been driven a bit abnormal by Bai Xiaosheng’s actions.
Madness, it seemed, was inevitable.
Bai Xiaosheng suddenly felt a bit of sympathy for him—actually, there was no need for it to come to this!
At this point, Bai Xiaosheng would not bother with the past grievances; after all, the man had gone mad.
Settling accounts with a madman was pointless.
Though Master Song Kai and District Chief Wu Qibing did not know the deeper details, being highly cultured individuals, they naturally did not concern themselves with personal secrets or gossip—they didn’t even ask.
This certainly saved a lot of hassle.
The dinner party was drawing to a close.
Master Song Kai and District Chief Wu Qibing had other matters to attend to in the afternoon, so they bid Bai Xiaosheng and the others farewell.
Both the master and the district chief showed great favor to Bai Xiaosheng before leaving and even verbally agreed to meet up during their free time.
To the onlookers, this was a tremendous honor!
Even Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye were green with envy.
After all, in their eyes, these were precious political and business resources!
They saw off the leaders.
Bai Xiaosheng and Old Wang rode back to the project site in the cars of the two bosses.
At the entrance of the project marketing center, Vice General Manager Wang Ye dropped off the people in his car, greeted everyone, and then hurriedly left.
For him, there were many things to report to “that person” in the group, which were critically important!
Upon returning to the project, Bai Xiaosheng and the others learned that the news of Li Mingtong’s madness had already spread wildly; there were discussions everywhere.
Even the cleaning men and women were whispering to each other.
“Did you hear?
Vice Manager Li Mingtong went mad!”
“How is that possible?
Who told you that?
He was fine this morning, right?”
“Wu from the investment department personally took him to the hospital, I heard he’s been transferred—to a mental hospital!”
“Tsk, he was doing fine, how did he just go mad?”
“I saw him when he fainted, that look on his face was horrifying, and he was screaming Bai Xiaosheng’s name…”
“Bai Xiaosheng…”
Bai Xiaosheng had no idea that after this incident,
he had effortlessly shed the “one of” from his status as one of the most untouchable figures in the entire project and become the sole one!
He outshone Chen Daya!
As soon as Shang Wenshu arrived at the project, he immediately called Chen Daya over.
Soon after, the head of the HR and administration department was also summoned.
Before long, the news of Bai Xiaosheng’s promotion to manager spread throughout the project!
Suddenly, the whole project was abuzz!
A figure unprecedented and unlikely to be emulated, Bai Xiaosheng—who in just two weeks got promoted twice, first ousting the supervisor and then driving the deputy project manager mad to become the project manager—became a living legend!
Manager Bai Xiaosheng instantly attained a mythic status!
To everyone, Li Mingtong’s incident was now merely juicy gossip for conversation.
They shook their heads in wonder, satisfying their cravings for stories.
Yet, it was Bai Xiaosheng who mattered, as he was the one related to their own vested interests!
Especially Li Mingtong’s faction, they are simply in a state of extreme mental tension!
The new official has lit three fires, and Bai Xiaosheng has indeed sparked a nest of workaholics in the promotion department.
Who knows if they will also get burned!
This is the ruthless person who almost drove Li Mingtong crazy; anyone who dares to slack off is just asking for trouble, practically begging to be sent to a mental hospital to keep the former leader company!
Over time,
Bai Xiaosheng’s formal appointment hasn’t even been sent from the head office yet, but his personal authority has already reached a certain peak.
Now, if he says a word, it’s probably a hundred times more effective than Chen Daya!
The news that came out wasn’t that Bai Xiaosheng’s rank was a vice manager, but a proper manager, on equal footing with Chen Daya.
About this, Chen Daya asked Shang Wenshu who they should listen to.
Shang Wenshu told him very clearly, “If the two of you aren’t in a dispute, then discuss and decide together.
But once any disagreement arises, follow what Bai Xiaosheng says!”
Same rank, different fate, ah!
However, regarding this, Chen Daya had no objections.
For one, he had seen Bai Xiaosheng’s capabilities, and secondly, he was also a little bit afraid…
About Li Mingtong.
He was, after all, the project’s senior management personnel, a veteran employee.
Shang Wenshu instructed Chen Daya to make arrangements; they were to form a consolation group tomorrow to visit the sick and also bring along some money as a small gesture from the company.
This wasn’t just Shang Wenshu’s intention; after Vice General Manager Wang Ye left, he also called and made the same instruction about this matter.
As for this traitor, Vice General Manager Wang Ye could be said to have done all that duty demanded.
The members who were to visit the sick were originally planned to be the entire leadership team.
Bai Xiaosheng was a bit conflicted.
Logically, as a former subordinate and new manager, he should go to visit, but Bai Xiaosheng prided himself on not being so magnanimous, nor did he want to be hypocritical.
Li’s wife and brother-in-law were still in detention because of the “effort” he “put in.”
To go would be bad, not to go would also be bad.
Bai Xiaosheng asked Chen Daya for advice, and Chen Daya immediately, on behalf of Li Mingtong, firmly declined!
If Bai Xiaosheng went, it would only turn Li Mingtong from mad to utterly insane!
“Forget it.
I think, Manager Bai, you’ve also been quite tired these days with the promotion department, so why not take a day off tomorrow?
Rest well and merge it with the weekend,” Chen Daya suggested.
Now that the two of them were on the same level, and Bai Xiaosheng’s word carried even more weight than his, Chen Daya had no way to order him.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded and agreed to this arrangement.
The promotion department once again took a holiday amidst the envious gazes of the entire project.
Returning to his own home, Bai Xiaosheng dove straight into bed.
To say he wasn’t tired these days would be a lie; he really wanted to have a good long sleep.
That night, Bai Xiaosheng went to bed early, slept until daybreak, only to be woken the next day by Wei Xuelian knocking at the door, delivering breakfast.
“Hey, you taking the bet about washing clothes?” Bai Xiaosheng took the breakfast with love from the beauty, looking at Wei Xuelian full of hopeful anticipation. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Wei Xuelian gave him a glance and lightly parted her red lips to give him one word, “Scram!”
Bai Xiaosheng chuckled awkwardly and had no other option but to drop the subject.
That entire Friday, Bai Xiaosheng stayed cooped up at home, not stepping a foot outside—with films to watch, games to play, and naps to take.
It wasn’t until the evening that he received a phone call that disturbed the peace of his private little world.
The caller was from Zhengdong Province.
“You at home?
Come out, let’s drink!”
That was the first sentence.
After a moment of silence, Zheng Pangzi spoke the second sentence.
“There’s a class reunion this weekend.
You’re coming with me.
It’s time to settle an old score with He Yanbing!”
