45: Two people who are scheming against each other

"Hmm..."

Sitting at his workstation, Su Yue frowned in confusion, flipping through the documents in his hand.

He looked as if he was struggling with the document's contents, but in reality, Su Yue's attention was almost entirely focused on what he was hearing through his earphones.

He listened to Lan Zijun's conversations with one Market Department member after another, hoping to catch something special.

However, in the eyes of his other colleagues, Su Yue's appearance was clearly an attempt to attract Lan Zijun's attention.

"I didn't expect Old Su to be so calculating."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Two colleagues who had finished talking huddled together, secretly pointing at Su Yue. One of them pointed towards the conference room where Lan Zijun was.

"Usually, President Lan can't see how hard everyone is working, but now it's different. President Lan can see everything. Combine that with Old Su's current performance... think about it, think about it closely."

"Hiss... I can't believe Old Su has such a scheming side."

"That's not scheming, that's being ambitious. Old Su is setting an example for us."

"Right, right! Let's get to work quickly too and try to leave a good impression on President Lan!"

After speaking, the two exchanged glances.

Following this, two men in the office began to ' roll' (compete intensely), and soon, other colleagues also noticed this.

It can only be said that this ' roll' phenomenon, once it fully starts, is almost unstoppable.

[Alright, go call the next person over.]

[Okay, President Lan.]

Another one finished?

Su Yue watched the colleague walking out of the conference room out of the corner of his eye, keeping his gaze on the entire process of the person calling Li Haoyang into the conference room.

Was I overthinking? Was Lan Zijun holding this interview session really just for the company's future and to reassure everyone?

Just as Su Yue slightly lowered his guard, Li Haoyang's voice came through his earphones.

[Li Haoyang: Hello, President Lan, I am Li Haoyang from the Market Department!]

[Lan Zijun: Yes, hello. *cough* *cough* That note is not trash.]

[Li Haoyang: Ah? Is that so? I'm sorry, President Lan.]

[Lan Zijun: It's alright, it's alright.]

Note? Not trash?

A glint of light flashed in Su Yue's eyes as he suddenly noticed the two keywords. He probably figured out Lan Zijun's method.

............

Several minutes later, it was finally Su Yue's turn to enter the conference room.

Standing at the conference room door, Su Yue took a deep breath, maintaining a normal state of mind, and gently knocked on the glass door of the conference room.

"Please come in."

Lan Zijun's clear, mature voice sounded, and Su Yue pushed the door open and entered directly.

Upon entering, he first saw Lan Zijun sitting in the main seat of the conference room, her figure perfectly accentuated by a white, fitted women's suit.

Of course, what was worth Su Yue's attention was the stand placed behind Lan Zijun.

A camera was set up on it, filming the entire scene.

Is she just planning to look closely at micro-expressions later? This woman is quite crazy.

After the first glance, Su Yue immediately shifted his gaze away, acting honestly as he closed the glass door.

Ah, it's the person who argued with Qian Boda last time.

From the moment Su Yue entered, Lan Zijun had been watching him with a scrutinizing look.

Su Yue's behavior, however, was not much different from other employees, showing a sense of restraint.

However, Su Yue's restraint was significantly less than that of the previous employees. Lan Zijun didn't have too many doubts about this.

From the last time when Su Yue was the only one who dared to refute Qian Boda's words, she could tell that Su Yue was someone with a bit of a temper.

"Have a seat."

Lan Zijun raised her hand, signaling Su Yue to sit down.

As Su Yue pulled out the chair and prepared to sit, he noticed a very familiar-looking note placed on the desk.

It was the very note he had used earlier to pass a message to Lan Zijun.

Su Yue, who had been prepared, picked up the note with a slight hint of confusion and looked at Lan Zijun, pretending not to understand.

Lan Zijun observed Su Yue's expression throughout.

Every expression from the moment Su Yue saw the note to the process of picking it up.

The expression of confusion and bewilderment was similar to all her previous employees; it was clear he was seeing this note for the first time.

It seems he can also be ruled out as a suspect...

Before Su Yue could speak, Lan Zijun raised her hand to interrupt him.

"This interview session is mainly to hear everyone's thoughts on the company's future development. The company will be launching a series of acquisition plans next..."

Their conversation ended after five minutes.

Su Yue was already fully prepared for the questions Lan Zijun would ask.

It could be said that this interview session was completely like an open-book exam.

How could this possibly stump Su Yue?

............

This interview session had a significant impact at Yuantu Investment.

Just from the performance of other colleagues in the Market Department throughout the day, Su Yue could tell that Lan Zijun's move had won over many people.

Throughout the day, the work atmosphere in the Market Department became much more positive.

As if to respond to Lan Zijun's action, they completed the work that would normally take three days in just one day.

And Su Yue, in order not to stand out, also followed his colleagues' pace and sped up his work.

After a day, Su Yue was completely exhausted.

He cursed these crazy ' rolling' people internally.

Little did he know that the person who led his colleagues to start ' rolling' was none other than himself, who was misunderstood.

By the time work ended, Su Yue's face was so pale that even Li Haoyang was a bit hesitant to approach him.

On the way home, Su Yue uncharacteristically didn't continue riding a shared bicycle but chose a shared electric bike that cost twice as much.

Enjoying the riding experience that didn't require pedaling, and enjoying the cool evening breeze, Su Yue felt it was time to collect his reward from Lan Zijun.

The matter of collecting his reward was an extremely difficult task in Su Yue's mind.

After all, tens of millions in cash, even if all in hundred-yuan bills, would weigh nearly three hundred kilograms.

Moving something of that weight without being noticed was a problem for the current Su Yue.

However, Su Yue thought of his goal and knew that no matter how difficult it was, he had to find a way to achieve it.

He planned to create a club that only the wealthy and upper-class could join.

If things didn't go smoothly with Lan Zijun, his first client, let alone expanding the business.

Therefore, the first thing Su Yue did upon returning home was to go back to his room.

He went online to watch some classic spy movies to find some inspiration for infiltration.

Just as Su Yue was engrossed in watching the movie, there was a knock on his room door.

Lin Jia's voice came from outside the door.

"Su Yue, the person installing the cameras is here."

Hearing this, Su Yue had no choice but to pause the movie, open the door, and come out.

Looking at the installer busy in the living room, Su Yue turned to look at Lin Jia, who asked while tucking her hair back.

"I wanted to ask you, do you want to install one in your room too?"
