Worried, Wu Wei hurried into the office.
As he expected, something rather troubling had happened.
“What right do you have to fire me?!”
Once he entered the office, he saw a beautiful, young lady glaring at Pei Ge fiercely.
The assistant almost passed out when he saw this scene before him.
“On what basis?”
Pei Ge looked coldly at the beautiful lady and lifted her head to glance at the people around her.
“On the basis that ‘I am the new CFO who depended on a man to land this position I am in.’”
Her lips parted. The words were uttered so plainly, yet everyone in the office paused when they heard those.
“Why, as a CFO, can’t I fire a small, disrespectful employee like you?”
She laughed coldly, her voice full of mocking.
“Y-You...”
Hearing her question, the female employee was stunned. A hint of fear flashed across her eyes, but she seemed to have recovered quickly.
“I was just kidding; you can’t just fire me for that!”
“Oh, really?”
Looking at the confident woman, Pei Ge lowered her head to cover her eyes with her lashes.
“Wu Wei, inform HR right now to throw this woman out of the office at once.”
He answered with a nod immediately after he heard his superior’s order.
“Understood, boss! I’ll inform HR now!”
He sighed to himself as he regarded the woman who had just gotten fired.
This lady had gotten in through a backdoor as well. She was rather cocky usually because she had connections.
Unfortunately, she had stepped on a landmine today!
Everyone said that a new superior always had a temper, but this woman dared to be this cocky.
“You! Do you know who I am? I’m—”
Seeing that this newcomer was not showing her any respect, the woman started yelling but was quickly interrupted by the new CFO.
“Where’s security? Throw this woman out.”
With that, she walked past the young lady and headed straight to her office.
However, after taking a few steps, she paused. “I’ll give you all ten minutes to prepare. In ten minutes, we’re having a general meeting.”
She left for real this time after she announced that.
The employees only started speaking again once they saw that she had disappeared.
The new CFO’s arrival caught them by surprise earlier, so they all kept quiet subconsciously.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief after they saw her leave.
“Gosh. It seems that our new CFO is very formidable!”
“Yes. It felt as if I were covered in ice when she looked at me earlier.”
“Isn’t she a little too pretty and young, though?”
“It couldn’t be that she got here because of a man, could it? She looks too pretty!”
“Shh! Do you want to get fired, too? No matter how she got the position, she’s now the CFO who holds our destiny in her hands! Do you want to get fired like Li Rui...”
...
The discussion outside the office was muted by the door.
Pei Ge felt a little better when she looked at her office.
That Yu Youli was rather good at observing people. The style of her new office was a copy of her office in New York.
The office had a simple yet modern style. It was mostly white, and the equipment was all high-tech and fully automated.
Her bad mood from earlier dissipated a little.
She walked over to the window and retracted the blinds using the remote.
She then looked at the view outside the window.
A light flashed across her eyes as she looked at the people walking on the streets.
“Second uncle and auntie, I’m back...”
You’d better cherish the good, free times you have now because—
Knock, knock, knock!
A knock at the door interrupted her thoughts.
“Come in.”
She turned and looked at the door.
Click!
The person who entered after the door was opened was her new assistant.
“Boss, the conference room is ready. Everyone is in there now.”
Wu Wei reported to her respectfully after he entered her office.
Even though her looks were nothing like the formidable iron lady in the legend, he knew that looks could be deceiving.
“Mhm.”
She nodded and left the office with him.
As she followed the assistant to the company’s conference room, the woman glanced at the workers either standing or sitting.
The usually spacious conference room had become cramped after fitting in all the employees. The assistant felt a little sheepish when he saw this.
To him, she was a bigshot whom all the important people on Wall Street were vying to hire.
Now, this elite lowered herself and joined their company...
No matter how he felt that she was being wronged, the person in question was just calmly sitting at the center seat of the conference table.
“Everyone, I think you all know who I am.”
Without any delay, she stated her intentions clearly.
“I don’t care how much you doubt me, but I want to say that all those seated here have no right to talk about me.
“It’s not because I am a Harvard graduate or because I’m from New York’s Wall Street; it’s because I’m more capable than you all are with my skills.”
As she spoke, Pei Ge curled her lips coldly.
“I always judge by ability, so I’ll give you all a trial of one week. After a week, I’m sure there will be some conspicuous changes in the company’s manpower allocation.”
With that, she got up from her seat.
“Okay. That’s all.”
Her words, delivered so obnoxiously, had a clear-cut meaning and, in that short time, left a deep impression on the people present.
Even though Minghao was not a big company, news of it managing to hire a Wall Street legend caught everyone’s attention.
“Ziming, did you hear about it? Minghao’s upstart, Yu Youli, must be planning something big as it hired a formidable character from Wall Street.”
