Chapter 1610: Apologetic (2)
“Miss, this is your office. Do you have any areas that need changes or improvement?”
In the Dongfang group, Dongfang Liuyun had just arrived at the Marketing Department when someone came to welcome her. The young and capable woman in front of her was the secretary Dongfang Gan had assigned to her. She had been transferred directly from Dongfang Gan’s office, Ah Ling.
She was around 35 years old and had been by Dongfang Gan’s side for many years. She was highly regarded by Dongfang Gan. Dongfang Gan had transferred her to Dongfang Liuyun’s side for a reason. Firstly, he wanted to help Dongfang Liuyun familiarize herself with the company’s business as soon as possible, secondly, he wanted to know Dongfang Liuyun’s situation at all times.
Dongfang Liuyun naturally knew Dongfang Gan’s motive, so she did not reject him. She walked in and roughly sized up the entire office before sitting down in the chair in front of the desk.
“It’s good, no need to change anything. You can call me Liuyun from now on.”
Dongfang Liuyun pulled open the keyboard drawer in front of her as she replied.
“Alright, then I’ll call you Manager Yun.”
“Bring me a detailed set of information on the situation in the Marketing Department, as well as information on the various staff members. Bring over all the plans and projects that the Marketing Department has done in the past five years.”
Dongfang Liuyun put the backpack in her hand into the cabinet and ordered.
“Okay, Manager Yun! Oh, right, President Gan wants me to introduce you to the various departments of the company. Now, we…”
“I got it. You can come back in half an hour.”
Dongfang Liuyun leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes tiredly.
Ah Ling carefully sized up Dongfang Liuyun. Her long hair that was hanging down turned into a black cloud in front of her chest, making her look even thinner and weaker—
It was said that this was President Gan’s daughter, Miss Liuyun…
She had never seen her before, but she had heard many legends about her. She knew that she was President Gan’s beloved daughter. At first, she thought that she was arrogant and unreasonable like those daughters of the rich and powerful. But after hearing about her, and now that she had come into contact with her personally, she knew that it wasn’t like that.
She should be a… very diligent and smart girl, right?
Without the high-profile and noble aura of the Public Relations manager, Dongfang Rou’er, the Dongfang Liuyun in front of her was obviously more mild.
Ah Ling looked at Dongfang Liuyun with admiration. After a while, she left.
However, just as Ah Ling walked out of the door, she saw Dongfang Rou’er walking over.
“Manager Rou!” Ah Ling quickly greeted her.
When Dongfang Rou’er saw Ah Ling, her eyes naturally paused as if she was a little surprised. However, she quickly returned to normal and smiled, “Why is Assistant Ding here?”
“The personnel department transferred me over to be Manager Yun’s assistant. Is Manager Rou looking for Manager Yun for anything?”
Ding Xiaoling was very clear about the conflict between Dongfang Ren’s faction and Dongfang Gan’s faction. Therefore, Ding Xiaoling had always been very vigilant against Dongfang Rou’er.
Seeing this, Dongfang Rou’er’s eyes turned cold, but the smile on her face did not disappear. If one did not look carefully, there was no time to catch the flash of coldness in her eyes.
However, these reactions obviously could not escape a shrewd person like Ding Xiaoling.
“I want to talk to her about work. Is she inside?”
“Then I’ll inform Manager Rou.”
As Ding Xiaoling said this, she turned around and knocked on the door, opening it.
“Manager Yun, Manager Rou from the Public Relations department is here.”
“Let her in.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s clear voice was heard. Dongfang Rou’er also took a step forward. She glanced at Ding Xiaoling before walking in.
In the office, Dongfang Liuyun had already sat up straight. Her fingers were crossed as she propped herself up against the table. She looked at Dongfang Rou’er with an indifferent expression as she pushed the door open and walked in. No emotions could be seen on her face.
Dongfang Rou’er walked in and stopped in front of the desk. She looked down at Dongfang Liuyun, after a while, she did not move.
Dongfang Liuyun looked up at her and shot a glance at the chair on the side. “Aren’t you going to sit? Or do you like to look down on others like this, even though it’s not very useful to me.”
Dongfang Rou’er’s expression darkened as she said this. Then, she pulled out a chair on the side to sit down.
Dongfang Liuyun casually took a sip of the tea and looked at her, “If you want to drink tea, make your own. It’s right there. If you’re not here to drink tea, say what you want to. I know you don’t really want to talk to me, and I feel the same way about you.”
“You finally joined the Dongfang group after all. Haven’t you always been disdainful? I remember when you left home, you let it be known that you wouldn’t take over the Dongfang group. Why? Are you going back on your words now? Are you still reluctant to part with this big cake, or were you just putting on a show for everyone back then?”
Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun paused for a moment and took a sip of tea before replying, “If I don’t take over, are you going to take over? I’m really sorry, but I’m the first-in-line successor. As long as I’m not dead, none of you will be able to get it. Even if it’s not me, there’s still Dongfang Xin, Dongfang Yi, or Aunty. It wouldn’t reach your turn, right? You’ve worked so hard over the years only to pave the way for others. I can understand how you feel.”
“Dongfang Liuyun, don’t even think about trying to sow discord.”
Dongfang Rou’er looked a little upset as she warned.
“Sow discord? Congratulations, you’re not too stupid to be able to hear it… It’s good that you didn’t pretend to be all innocent in front of me like that. At the very least, I admire your frankness. It’s good for a woman to be ambitious. However, since you’re a chess piece, you should be placed in your own position. If you extend your claws too far, you won’t even know why you lost your hands.”
Dongfang Liuyun spoke in a light tone as she looked at Dongfang Rou’er’s sunken expression with great admiration.
However, Dongfang Rou’er was not a character that was easy to deal with. Hearing Dongfang Liuyun’s sarcasm, she naturally did not feel good about it. However, she had been able to withstand pressure ever since she was young, so she did not seem to mind at all as she laughed, “You don’t have to sarcastically mock me like this. I know my position better than anyone else. Moreover, whether or not I’m the first in line to succeed isn’t up to you to decide. This war has just begun. Dongfang Liuyun, it’s hard to say who will have the last laugh. Do you understand?”
Dongfang Rou’er lowered her body slightly, the smile in her eyes was unusually strange, “Do you really think that you’ll be lucky forever?”
“You’re wrong. I’ve never been lucky. That’s why you’re seeing the person I am today,” replied Dongfang Liuyun.
