Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1439: Xiao Zhen’s Leisurely Day

Anyway, as long as he has this kid with him, no matter how many tricks he has, he won’t be able to escape from his grasp.

So, on that day, Xu Ke was following Xiao Zhen wherever he went, and Xiao Zhen felt most comfortable because there was an extra tail today to handle many things for him.

"You read all these documents, after reading, report to me the content and your insights, also don’t be lazy, now is the time to test your abilities. If you don’t have any capabilities, you might as well get lost early on. Every day, you’re in front of my daughter, it’s really annoying to see."

Xiao Zhen casually found an excuse and pushed a pile of documents in front of Xu Ke. Although Xu Ke didn’t want to read, being that the man before him was his future father-in-law, he reluctantly opened the documents and started reading them on the side, while Xiao Zhen crossed his legs and swiped through those short videos, feeling really comfortable.

Ever since he became chairman, he’s never felt this comfortable. It seems it’s time to let others do some of the work, not necessarily handle everything himself.

And the folks at Headquarters were all dumbfounded; wasn’t the chairman just settling accounts with the branch company two days ago? What’s with the sudden change these days?

Moreover, he even brought the branch company president over, seemingly letting him act as an assistant, suddenly panicking Xiao Zhen’s assistant a lot; what’s the chairman doing now? Is he going to be unemployed?

This assistant thought, last time he offended Xu Ke. If Xu Ke came here, what position would he have left? He peeked several times at the office door, but Xiao Zhen showed no intention of calling him in.

Reluctantly, the assistant could only carry two cups of coffee in. Although he didn’t want to serve Xu Ke coffee, Xu Ke now seemed to have won the favor of the chairman, and there was no choice but to go along with the chairman’s wishes.

After the coffee was brought in, he saw such an absurd scene; there was the chairman playing, while all the documents were pushed in front of Xu Ke.

He carefully placed the coffee in front of Xu Ke, who raised his head to look at Xiao Zhen’s assistant, remembering how arrogant this assistant was during the last branch company meeting, yet now bringing coffee over. Seems like turnover indeed changes how people see things; once there’s turnover, everyone’s perspective shifts.

Raising his head, Xu Ke looked at Xiao Zhen’s assistant: "Unexpectedly, after serving coffee once, you understand quite a bit now. But this time the coffee is lacking a bit of sugar, remember to add more next time. Otherwise, it doesn’t taste too good."

At this point, Xiao Zhen’s assistant was almost vomiting blood, serving this little ancestor, and he actually came here, acting like he’s the master, and even picking and choosing, which is really too much. He then looked up pleadingly at Xiao Zhen.

Xiao Zhen continued swiping through his videos and had even opened a mini-game.

"Chairman..."

The assistant was tearful and raised his head looking at the assistant, suddenly a bit dissatisfied. Finally having some time to play, yet disturbed by this assistant, what’s with that?

"What?"

Seeing Xiao Zhen doesn’t care at all, the assistant could only swallow this loss, who made him the chairman anyway.

No matter how unwilling he is, he can only nod and agree to put another cup of coffee next to Xiao Zhen, then seeing the content on Xiao Zhen’s phone screen made him almost vomit blood and questioned what their chairman was doing. Is he treating Xu Ke handling files as grooming a future heir?

Thinking this made the assistant change instantly, if Xu Ke were their future president, better be cautious otherwise he’d suffer the loss. The assistant began sweating profusely, thankfully he didn’t offend Xu Ke earlier, otherwise...

Xiao Zhen saw the coffee beside him and took a sip without thinking, unexpectedly tasting a rich sweetness.

"How much sugar did you add? Didn’t I tell you every time I want two measures of sugar in my coffee? Are you trying to make it too sweet for me?"

Assistant: "..."

"Chairman, I understand, next time I’ll definitely add less sugar. But there’s a meeting downstairs that you might want to attend in person? This meeting wasn’t completed last time, and everyone has some doubts they are hoping you’ll address once you’re there."

If he brings the chairman back to regular business, surely Xiao Zhen would dismiss this branch company president, right? But unexpectedly Xiao Zhen heard this and frowned right away, finally having some time to play, yet disrupted by this assistant again.

"Is this meeting only executable by me?"

Xiao Zhen said, then glanced at Xu Ke still reading files, suddenly feeling like he found a helper.

"Alright, I’ll go to this meeting, now hurry out and don’t bother me anymore, you’ve been quite disobedient lately."

Upon hearing Xiao Zhen’s agreement, the assistant felt a bit weird, this odd feeling couldn’t be explained, he could only tuck his tail and leave, while outside everyone was waiting for the assistant’s news. As soon as the assistant came out he sighed heavily.

"Alright, everyone stop asking me for information now. Anyway, the chairman there not even working and seems to be playing a trending mini-game. What can I do? Also, the files you sent to the chairman, he’s letting Xu Ke handle them all."

"That branch company president is incompetent, you all know that. So don’t ask me for opinions anymore, I know nothing. The president from the branch company will naturally give opinions later, it’s useless asking me now."

The assistant’s words were actually a bit sour.

All department heads and executives hearing the assistant were chilled to the core, knowing that the branch company president lacks capability, if Xiao Zhen lets that guy handle everything, they won’t get the opinions they’re looking for.

Even if these documents aren’t urgent, what if they don’t meet expectations when revisited?

"I refuse to believe a branch company president can handle our headquarters’ affairs, and the chairman, this is a bit unreasonable. Normally it’s his job, but he’s handing it to a stranger. Anyway, our finance department’s plan is quite urgent, I’m asking for it now. If he can’t deliver, then what will he say then."

The Finance Department Director went directly inside, first approaching Xiao Zhen, pretending not to know: "Chairman, did our finance department’s plan get approved or not? During our last meeting we’ve improved it quite a bit, unsure if this plan suits your tastes? If not, do you have any suggestions, chairman?"
