After dropping off the two girls, Ye Shuang arrived at the company as usual.
"President Ye." Upon arriving at the office, Kou Kou, who had been waiting on the side, spoke up. "Assistant Little An took a leave of absence."
"Hmm?"
An Shiyu?
Ye Shuang thought about it and wasn't entirely surprised. She probably got tired of playing the company's games and ran off to do something else, right?
Ye Shuang took out his phone and sent An Shiyu a message.
He basically asked her where she went to hang out.
However, the girl didn't reply. Seeing this, Ye Shuang placed his phone on the table next to him and began to handle the day's work.
In a flash, as noon approached, Ye Shuang noticed his phone vibrate.
He originally thought it was a reply from An Shiyu, but when he glanced at it, he found it was a message from Lao Guan.
"It's good that he figured it out." Seeing Lao Guan's message, Ye Shuang gave a faint smile. He slowly stood up and left the office with Kou Kou.
Kou Kou followed beside Ye Shuang into the elevator, seemingly curious about what kind of big shot Ye Shuang was going to meet that required him to go in person.
On the first floor, Ye Shuang soon saw Lao Guan.
Lao Guan had changed into a clean suit and tidied himself up nicely. He even completely shed his scruffy look and had specifically gotten a haircut.
"President Ye." As soon as he saw Ye Shuang, Lao Guan immediately spoke with respect.
"It's good that you figured it out. After all, I need you right now," Ye Shuang said with a smile, gently shaking Lao Guan's hand.
Faced with Ye Shuang's approachable demeanor, Lao Guan couldn't help but sigh emotionally, "I never expected to be able to work under President Ye again."
"Alright, let's head up and talk."
"Okay."
After bringing Lao Guan back to the office, Ye Shuang briefly chatted with him about the company's current situation, as well as the responsibilities and purpose of establishing the new department.
"Compared to training a batch of good new guys, it's better to rely on dependable old friends." This single sentence from Ye Shuang moved Lao Guan beyond words.
"Are you nervous?"
"Haha, it is such a huge corporation after all, quite different from the small places I was at before," Lao Guan said. Regardless, there were quite a few differences in the operational models of large corporations and ordinary enterprises, so it would still take a little time for him to get the hang of it.
"There's no rush for that. Besides, just work boldly under my lead," Ye Shuang said.
"If anything happens, I'll take responsibility."
Hearing this, Kou Kou couldn't help but add a sentence in her heart.
Like you need to take responsibility; after all, as soon as you entered the corporation, you were ready to chop people up with a knife.
"President Ye." At this moment, Lao Guan suddenly spoke up. "There's something..."
"What is it?"
"Actually, among the brothers from our batch, there are a few who are currently in a difficult spot. Because they are getting older, they were directly laid off by several major tech companies... They are currently unemployed too." Lao Guan explained the situation.
In the current job market, they were considered too old to find a job but too young to retire, and retirement ages kept getting pushed back. Almost every enterprise just wanted young, capable, and cheap workhorses.
"Establishing a department naturally requires quite a few people. Call those guys over too," Ye Shuang said. After all, those former subordinates were actually quite capable. When their abilities were solid, salary wouldn't be a major issue.
"We absolutely won't let down President Ye's trust." Hearing Ye Shuang's words, Lao Guan felt a surge of emotion and replied immediately.
Although workforce optimization was something almost every enterprise did, Ye Shuang felt that establishing such a department had more benefits than drawbacks. After all, the losses caused by some outrageous product copywriting or operations would be far higher than the cost of running the department.
"Kou Kou, take Lao Guan to complete his onboarding, and then have someone from HR show him around the company."
"Understood, President Ye."
After Kou Kou left with Lao Guan, Ye Shuang sat alone for a while.
Considering he was somewhat free at the moment, he pondered whether he should go over and check on Chen Qin. Given the time, she should have just finished her meetings.
However...
Ye Shuang subconsciously touched his waist and narrowed his eyes. If he went over, would he be wrung dry?
It wouldn't be the first time in the office, and to be honest, it was a bit too much for Ye Shuang to handle.
"Forget it, I'll just write my novel." Ye Shuang hesitated for a moment before choosing to open the writing software on his computer and update his content a bit.
"Hmm..."
"Why is this editor making me kill off another character?"
After finishing the update, Ye Shuang noticed it was almost noon.
After scheduling the chapter to be published, he playfully rolled around and begged for some free gifts in the comment section before getting up to head to the cafeteria for lunch.
Lately, Ye Shuang had basically been bringing An Shiyu to eat with Chen Hai and the others. If Chen Qin happened to have time, they would all sit and eat together. Occasionally, the little girl Qiaoqiao would come over too.
Although the matter with Zhou Min hadn't been completely turned over, the relationship between Chen Hai and his wife wasn't as stiff anymore.
He heard that they were resting in the same room when they went home, though it was hard to say whether Chen Hai was huddled on the sofa or the floor.
"Ah, Uncle Ye." In the cafeteria, the little girl with twin tails also noticed Ye Shuang.
Qiaoqiao was sitting on a cafeteria chair. Her legs weren't long enough, so they dangled in the air.
"Where is your dad?"
"Daddy went to get drinks," Qiaoqiao replied immediately.
"Is that so." Ye Shuang patted Qiaoqiao's little head and sat down.
At this moment, Qiaoqiao asked curiously, "Where is the short-haired sister?"
She was asking about An Shiyu.
Hearing this, Ye Shuang couldn't help but say, "She had some things to do, so she didn't come to the company today."
But speaking of which, that girl An Shiyu hadn't sent a single message all morning. He had no idea what she was busy with.
Thinking of this, Ye Shuang picked up his phone and sent another message to An Shiyu.
Ye Shuang: What are you busy with?
Ye Shuang: Are you looking for something fun again?
However, there was still no response. Including the previous ones, he had already sent four or five messages.
"Probably sleeping in?" Ye Shuang pondered. Just then, Chen Hai's voice came from not far away, "Ye Shuang."
"Cola?"
"Yeah." There were a few bottles of cola on Chen Hai's tray, and he handed one to Qiaoqiao as he spoke.
"Kids shouldn't drink things that are too sweet," Ye Shuang said.
"Hey, as long as the kid likes it, it's fine." Chen Hai looked cheerful. "Besides, I regularly check Qiaoqiao's teeth."
"Uncle, look." To prove this point, Qiaoqiao opened her little mouth to show Ye Shuang her teeth.
They were snow-white and indeed very healthy.
"Alright... By the way, Chen Hai." Ye Shuang then looked at Chen Hai opposite him. "I'm planning to establish a supervision department. Are you interested in heading over there?"

You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life.

However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
