Although Yan Xia was now the vice president of Shengshi, her focus was actually on getting closer to Long Tao. She had figured out the details of several underground casinos. With the help of Shangguanyao, she quietly replaced several key but non - obstructive positions with informants arranged by Shangguanyao.
Master Lu had given her these casinos with an able manager named Zhou Qi, who, apart from Master Lu, only took orders from Yan Xia.
At this moment, for example, Yan Xia was sitting in her office. This company seemed to be engaged in financial management on the surface, but in fact, it was responsible for the management and profit - making of several casinos.
Zhou Qi brought the account books and received goods resources of several casinos to Yan Xia. She looked through the account books in the office. Even though she had seen a lot of money before, after seeing the daily profits of these casinos, she still couldn't help taking a deep breath.
No wonder Master Lu, even though he had always supported charity and was very laid - back about business, seemingly having no great ambition, could still maintain his assets and status unshakably. Just the profits from these few casinos were so high, not to mention the dozens or even hundreds of casinos he had across the country.
She even saw the names of several well - known big shots in the account books. There was obviously collusion between officials and businessmen. Master Lu could run the casinos so stably, which meant there must be someone powerful backing him up, and the background was profound.
The sun was shining brightly at noon, and the window was full of warmth.
Since Master Lu had given her full responsibility for these casinos, it meant he was testing her. Last time, Shangguanyao had the suppliers raided by the police. Now the resources were in short supply. If they couldn't be replenished in time, Master Lu might be dissatisfied.
After reading the account books, Yan Xia finally looked up and sized up Zhou Qi carefully. Because his name "Qi" had the same pronunciation as the number seven, the people below all called him Brother Seven.
This man had a very regular and steady face, a strong build, and a neat crew cut. For some reason, even though it was their first meeting, Yan Xia always felt that he looked familiar.
"Brother Seven, have I seen you somewhere before?" Maybe it was someone she had seen around Master Lu, but Yan Xia couldn't remember.
Zhou Qi said, "No, this is the first time I've met General Manager Cheng."
Yan Xia smiled and said, "I always feel that you look familiar, as if I've seen you somewhere."
Zhou Qi nodded, "It's my honor to be recognized by General Manager Cheng."
This was a very steady man who could keep his cool. These days, all the arrangements and decisions regarding the casinos were orally conveyed by Yan Xia and implemented by Zhou Qi. Yan Xia took a steady - going approach. She didn't make decisions easily, but every change she made was to the point.
"After our suppliers were seized by the police, we haven't found new suppliers yet. This is the most urgent matter at the moment. If we report it to Master Lu, it will be easy to solve, but it depends on what you, General Manager Cheng, plan to do."
If she asked Master Lu for help, it would be like showing weakness and telling him that she was not capable of this position.
Of course, she couldn't do that. Yan Xia had her own plan. She just said, "You first stabilize the situation. Don't worry. I'll definitely find new suppliers within half a month."
Since the new boss had said so and boasted about finding suppliers in half a month, Zhou Qi naturally had to follow her order.
After Zhou Qi left, Yan Xia stayed alone in the office to work on the unfinished project plan and the contingency plan. But no matter how she did it, she always felt something was missing and it was still not good enough.
There was a new message on her phone. When she clicked it open, she was surprised to find that it was from an account marked "husband", asking what she was doing.
Yan Xia frowned. She couldn't remember when she had added this person at all. She clicked on the person's Moments and saw a photo of her and Lu Qianzhou holding hands on a Japanese street, with gardenias in their hands, in the background photo of the Moments. She knew that this person must be Lu Qianzhou without a doubt.
Fortunately, he was kind - hearted enough to crop out their heads and only used the parts below their necks as the background picture.
The latest post in his Moments was posted yesterday, with the caption, "There's a pig inside."
In the picture, there was only a dim light on in the room at midnight. The position of the quilt was slightly bulging, and a slender, fair hand was lying on the pillow. The person in the quilt was obviously her. Fortunately, her face wasn't shown. Only a hand was captured.
The rest would be left to the imagination of the people in the Moments.
Yan Xia was almost furious. He must have used her fingerprint to unlock her phone while she was drunk and saved his phone number, WeChat, QQ, and all the contact tools he could think of in her phone.
He even dared to change his remark to "husband" without permission!
How... shameless!
She quickly returned to the chat page and replied to him.
"Lu Qianzhou, how can you be so shameless? Who allowed you to touch my phone? Also, quickly delete the photos and the background in your Moments!"
Lu Qianzhou replied, "I can post whatever I want in my Moments. I'm the boss of my own Moments. I won't listen to an ordinary friend if they ask me to delete these things. But if my girlfriend minds, I'll listen to her."
So Yan Xia directly blocked him and threw her phone aside.
The best way to deal with a shameless person was to be even more shameless than them.
Lu Qianzhou had been immersed in the joy of the blessings from people in his Moments. Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, he couldn't help sending another message.
"It's okay if you want me to delete them. From now on, don't avoid me, and you're not allowed to refuse to see me."
After sending this message, it directly showed that the sending had failed, with a big red exclamation mark in front.
It took Lu Qianzhou a few seconds to realize that this woman had deleted him!
She actually dared to delete him as a friend!
Unforgivable, completely unforgivable!
So he called her again.
On this side, the caller ID was still marked as "husband". Yan Xia was so angry that as soon as she answered the phone, she started scolding.
"Lu Qianzhou, are you crazy? When will you stop!"
Lu Qianzhou raised his eyebrows, "We haven't finished the topic just now. Who allowed you to delete me as a friend?"
Yan Xia sneered and replied with his own words, "Sorry, I'm the boss of my own account. I can delete whoever I want."
Lu Qianzhou was choked. This woman was really stingy now. She actually used his words to choke him.
"Let's make a deal. I can delete the content in my Moments. But the precondition is that from now on, you won't avoid me anymore. You must reply to my messages, answer my calls, and accept my invitations."
How childish this man was!
"You're daydreaming. Don't worry. After this call ends, I'll block you immediately. I won't see any of your messages or calls anymore."
She hung up the phone and blocked his phone number.
When she frowned and continued to work on the plan, she suddenly felt a bit of a headache. She had never been involved in the business of underground casinos before. It was really difficult to intimidate the people below and make them convinced.
If she kept being indecisive, she might not be able to convince the crowd.
After thinking it over and over again, she took out her phone again and, surprisingly, added Lu Qianzhou back on WeChat. While Lu Qianzhou was overjoyed, he also complained about her.
"Cheng Yanxia, are you schizophrenic? Is there something wrong with your head?"
Yan Xia directly said, "Help me with something."
