Second Young Master? Who does he think he is!

He Yubing stood at 171 centimeters tall, and after putting on high heels, she reached a full 176 centimeters!

However, standing beside Zhou Cheng, she was still about a head shorter than him.

At the same time, because Zhou Cheng had a large stride, He Yubing had to quicken her pace just to keep up with him!

Listening to Zhou Cheng's words, she felt completely confused. Asking if she had seen Titanic, asking if she cried—she found all of it baffling.

Especially Zhou Cheng's mention of calling the police left her even more bewildered.

In such a tense moment, was this really the time to chat about these things?

This also gave her an extremely poor first impression of the Second Young Master upon meeting him today.

She didn't understand why the Eldest Young Master would let the Second Young Master come here!

And why he would hand over everything regarding this matter to this Second Young Master!

"Wait! These three elevators are reserved for members of the Board of Directors and the executives attending today's meeting! Please keep walking forward and take the staff elevator!"

Just as He Yubing was lost in thought, the two had already reached the elevator doors.

At the same time, they were stopped by the personnel in front of the elevators!

Hearing this, He Yubing snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the man with questioning eyes!

This entire building was the headquarters of the Chenyang Group, with over ten thousand employees.

Moreover, it was currently working hours; you're telling the two of them to squeeze into the staff elevator?

Forget about Zhou Cheng, the Second Young Master of the Group—even He Yubing wouldn't go there!

Zhou Cheng was also stunned upon hearing this. He hadn't expected that on his first visit to his own family's company...

Not only did he not receive the treatment of employees greeting him at the door, but he was even being made trouble for just to take an elevator.

"What do you mean? This is the Second Young Master! He specifically came here today to attend the Board of Directors meeting!" He Yubing said displeasedly.

At the same time, she glanced at the other person's identification badge.

Zhang Wu, an assistant from the General Manager's office.

In other words, one of Zhou Mu's people!

"I know, so what?" Zhang Wu replied. He still kept his arm out to block them, his expression unchanged, and he even seemed somewhat fearless.

As of today, there was no longer any suspense regarding who would be the Group's CEO.

With Chairman Zhou Yuanbo's nod, who in the entire Group didn't know that Young Master Zhou Mu was about to become the Group CEO and the highest executive officer?

If the Eldest Young Master, Zhou Feiyu, had come, they wouldn't have dared to make things too difficult.

But as for the Second Young Master?

This Internet Celebrity cop?

In the entire Group, especially those in Zhou Mu's faction, absolutely no one took Zhou Cheng seriously!

Zhang Wu was no exception, not to mention he was one of Zhou Mu's men.

At this moment, he had even received instructions from Zhuge Yun!

"I said, this elevator is for the exclusive use of Board members and executives attending the meeting! As for the Second Young Master, sorry, he is not a member of the Board, nor is he a Group executive!"

"Do you realize what you're doing?" He Yubing said angrily.

"I know, so what?"

"What is your name?" Zhou Cheng took over from He Yubing and asked first. He wasn't in a hurry and remained calm.

"Zhang Wu, so what?" Zhang Wu looked at Zhou Cheng.

"Aren't you afraid of offending me?"

"The worst that happens is I get fired, so what?" Zhang Wu replied.

On one side was Young Master Zhou Mu, who was deeply favored by the Chairman and about to take office as CEO.

On the other side was the Second Young Master, Zhou Cheng, who never came to the Group and had zero influence over it.

Zhang Wu felt that even someone with a broken brain would know which side to choose.

Zhou Cheng heard this and said, "Not bad, you're quite the tough guy."

Then, he shoved him aside with one hand.

"I hope you can stay this tough when you're in prison later!"

[Zhang Wu: Crime of Occupational Embezzlement, etc. Exchange: 500]

Zhou Cheng looked at He Yubing again and said:

"Fire him immediately, investigate the evidence of his illegal activities, send it to the police station, and prosecute him severely!"

"Arrange for the Group's best lawyers to handle the lawsuit. If his crimes can get him a ten-year sentence, do not settle for anything less!"

"If you can't find anything, come directly to me. I will arrange for professional detectives to investigate!"

After saying that, Zhou Cheng strode forward and entered the elevator!

After standing firm, Zhou Cheng turned around, his gaze still calm and without the slightest ripple!

Just a dog under Zhou Mu's command, yet he dared to stand at the elevator entrance and make things difficult for him?

Did he really think I was some submissive short drama male lead who only knows how to fall in love and doesn't dare to strike back when faced with harassment?

Of course, I mean 'some,' I'm not referring to my own big brother!

So what?

This isn't some Qing Dynasty drama; I'm not the Fourth Prince, and you're not Qin Cao'er!

He Yubing followed him in, and then the elevator doors closed as it slowly ascended.

At the entrance, Zhang Wu clutched his chest, watching Zhou Cheng and the other go up.

Zhou Cheng's action of pushing him aside just now had looked effortless, but he felt as if his chest had been pushed by a giant boulder.

Even now, there was a faint, throbbing pain.

At the same time, Zhang Wu was starting to feel a bit panicked.

Zhou Cheng's words had truly frightened him.

In a large corporation like the Chenyang Group, ordinary staff were one thing, but for any executive with even a little power, who hadn't used their position to gain some personal benefit?

If Zhou Cheng really got serious, had the Group fire him, and strictly investigated him...

He might really have to spend the rest of his life in prison!

Because of this, in his panic, he hurriedly took out his phone and called Zhuge Yun.

"Assistant Zhuge, the Second Young Master has gone up. And because of your arrangement, I intentionally blocked him just now, but he said he's going to fire me and investigate evidence of my illegal acts. Assistant Zhuge, I... I'm now..."

Zhang Wu was incredibly anxious.

But Zhuge Yun's words made him feel steady and calm once again.

"What are you afraid of? Young Master Zhou Mu is about to become the CEO; the entire Group will be under Young Master Zhou Mu's command."

"The Second Young Master? What does he think he is!" Zhuge Yun said disdainfully.

To him, the victory was already decided.

The only one who could have influenced the outcome was Zhou Feiyu, but Zhou Feiyu was weak and didn't dare to disobey Zhou Yuanbo; he had even run away to the Ye family for the sake of love.

Therefore, no one could stop Zhou Mu from taking the position now!

Hearing Zhuge Yun's words, Zhang Wu finally felt at ease!

Exactly!

From now on, Young Master Zhou Mu would have the final say in the entire Group. That Zhou Cheng didn't count for shit!

...

In the elevator, He Yubing stood behind Zhou Cheng.

Zhou Cheng's tall frame meant she had to tilt her head slightly just to see his profile.

Compared to the Eldest Young Master, Zhou Feiyu, He Yubing felt that Zhou Cheng was colder, and also more decisive and ruthless!

In the situation just now, if it had been the Eldest Young Master, he probably would have actually gone to the staff elevator.

"Second Young Master, what you said just now..." He Yubing asked softly.

She wanted to ask if what Zhou Cheng said was just out of anger, or if he really intended to investigate!

"Was what I said just now not clear enough?" Zhou Cheng interrupted her before she could finish.

At the same time, Zhou Cheng was observing He Yubing through the reflection in the elevator.

When Zhou Cheng first met He Yubing, he had already checked her with his Heavenly Eye.

There were no issues; from this, it could be seen that He Yubing was still trustworthy.

But trust was one thing.

And although she was recommended by his big brother...

Whether she could be entrusted with heavy responsibilities still required his own assessment.

In particular, he had to check if she would become love-brained in the future.

He Yubing had top-tier looks; in a short drama world like this, it was highly likely she would turn into the Female Protagonist or a Villain of some short drama!

The CEO position was vital. If He Yubing met a male lead in the future...

And then, just to make the male lead smile, she directly sold out the Group.

That would be disastrous!

"Understood." He Yubing nodded. Once the elevator reached the floor, the doors opened.

Zhou Cheng stepped out of the elevator, and He Yubing followed, then took the lead to show the way.

"There's still about half an hour before the meeting. I'll take you to the lounge first to introduce you to the directors and Group executives attending this meeting. This way, you'll be more familiar with everything when you intervene in the Group's affairs later," He Yubing said.

"No rush. Take me to the CEO's office first," Zhou Cheng refused.

"By the way, although my big brother recommended you to me and believes your ability is sufficient to hold the CEO position..."

"Out of serious consideration for the Group's future, I have decided to investigate and assess you first. You don't have any objections, do you?" Zhou Cheng said solemnly.

"Of course, no problem at all," He Yubing said confidently.

Although she didn't know what Zhou Cheng meant by saying she had sufficient ability to be CEO...

This was, after all, the first time the two of them had met.

So, in order to gain the Second Young Master's trust and make him listen to her ideas in the future to slowly take back the Group...

Letting the Second Young Master assess her today was perfectly fine!
