Chapter 297 The newly appointed CEO Chu is very strict
Hua Lan, who was also interning in the obstetrics and gynecology department, felt more and more fortunate as she walked back home, thinking about what happened in the operating room that day.
She nervously took out her phone and sent a message to Chu Xiao.
Thankfully, you and Xiaoyue are both smart, otherwise I would have been in real trouble today.
Chu Xiao was inspecting the factory of Jianda Medical Equipment Company when he suddenly received this message. It was also around the time he was supposed to be leaving get off work, so he couldn't help but feel worried.
He turned around and looked at the group of leaders in work uniforms behind him. They were all long-time employees and leaders of Kinder.
The work wasn't going to be over in a short while, so he put away his phone and said to everyone:
"That's all for today. Please arrange a room for me. I'll stay here until the technology is mastered."
"This..." The people below looked at each other, unsure of how to respond.
The newly appointed boss is keeping a closer eye on things; his father hasn't been this strict in many years.
The group kept making small movements, looking at each other, and finally pushed out the person with the lowest position.
"President Chu, overcoming the technical challenges won't happen overnight. Please go ahead and take care of your business. Once our technical staff has solved the problem, we will report back to you at the company as soon as possible."
"Yes."
"Yes."
The others smiled and agreed.
Chu Xiao's gaze swept over everyone like a knife, and a cold light appeared in his deep eyes. "I have nothing else to do."
The newly appointed boss is a former military officer who is used to a strict, uncompromising work style.
Recently, the company's leaders have been complaining endlessly.
Everyone's become lazy and lethargic; now that they're suddenly required to move around, who can handle such high-intensity work?
When faced with shared interests, people with similar goals quickly align themselves.
Seeing that one person's words were ineffective, another person stepped forward and very considerately offered advice:
"President Chu, how can we let you live in the factory dormitories where the employees live? Don't worry, we will definitely work overtime to conduct experiments and simulations to overcome the technical difficulties as soon as possible."
After he finished speaking, no one behind him dared to echo him.
Chu Xiao didn't even glance at the group of people, and simply said, "Now, send all the workers home and cut off the power to the factory."
"Oh, Mr. Chu, you're putting us in a difficult position."
Chu Xiao didn't repeat the same words, but just looked at the group coldly, seeing through everything.
Under the oppressive gaze of a sharp eagle, everyone broke out in a thin layer of sweat on their backs.
"I...I'll go make the announcement right away." The factory manager stammered, startled by the look in his eyes.
When the factory manager spoke, the others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The newly appointed General Manager Chu shows no mercy whatsoever; he's truly not someone to be fooled.
Having had similar experiences, the leaders completely believed what the other parts factory employees had said.
You'd better listen to them and do whatever General Manager Chu tells you to do, or you'll regret it.
Chu Xiao watched as the lights in the factory went out before following the factory manager to the assigned room.
"Mr. Chu, this is the room your father used to stay in when he came to the factory. It has been empty for many years, so we cleaned it out and left it empty. I'll go to the supermarket later to buy you some new daily necessities."
"No need, I'll handle it myself. You should go home too. Your family must be waiting for you to come home for dinner."
The factory manager was stunned.
His family was waiting for him to eat.
It was an ordinary sentence, but when President Chu said it, it made his heart ache.
The boss's situation has caused a huge uproar online; everyone knows about it.
His own child was about the same age as President Chu. As a father, he felt sorry for President Chu and assured him again, "President Chu, don't worry, we will do our best as soon as possible."
Chu Xiao glanced at the simple room and knew that the person behind him had no bad intentions and had not committed any serious mistakes.
"Everyone's off work now, don't worry about work-related matters, go home."
The factory manager chuckled awkwardly, "Okay, feel free to call me anytime if you need anything."
Chu Xiao didn't respond. He didn't like hearing polite words; what mattered was doing his job well and giving him the results he wanted.
In the room, a bunk bed faces the door, and in front of the window on the same wall as the door, there is a set of old desks and chairs.
This table is probably older than him.
It was already here when he was a child.
Chu Xiao stood at the door for a while, then closed the door and went to his car.
He had prepared all the necessary daily necessities, such as blankets, quilts, washbasins, and slippers.
I never intended to go back after coming here.
After closing the car door, Chu Xiao made a video call to Hua Lan.
It didn't make a sound for long before it was killed by Hualan.
"Weren't you looking for me? Why did you hang up?"
Just as I was wondering, Hua Lan called.
"I'm outside, and I'm afraid of using up my data limit when making video calls," Hua Lan explained.
The simple words and gentle voice instantly made Chu Xiao, who had been traveling all day, feel as if he were in the Cangshan Mountains.
Chu Xiao steadied himself, his voice as always revealing neither his mood nor his emotions, "You sent me a message out of the blue, and I was wondering what you meant by 'you're doomed'?"
"It was today when Xiaoyue and I went into the operating room together. My heart was pounding. Now the more I think about it, the more upset I feel. I'm sure Xiaoyue is feeling uncomfortable too."
As Hua Lan spoke, she put herself in Xiao Yue's shoes and pretended that she was Xiao Yue. If all the things that happened to Xiao Yue happened to her, she would probably cry for a long time.
Zhu Rui alone is enough to make her angry.
"Tell me more clearly, what happened in the operating room?" Chu Xiao guided her.
"It's Xiaoyue. We just started our internship in the obstetrics and gynecology department today. It's our first day, and we don't know anyone there. So we asked Xiaoyue for help. The anesthesiologist wants Xiaoyue to get his child a job at Longjin Hospital..."
Hua Lan is a sensitive person, and in her narratives, there are more words of feeling than words of fact.
However, Chu Xiao had known her for five or six years, so he could naturally discern the true nature of things from a bunch of words expressing feelings.
"That's why I said, it's a good thing those people don't know about my relationship with you, otherwise they would have definitely torn me to pieces to vent their anger, and I wouldn't be able to intern there peacefully."
After hearing this, Chu Xiao felt relieved. "Yes, you should thank me."
"Are you off work? Have you eaten?" Hua Lan walked out of the subway station, intending to grab a quick bowl of wontons or something near the school gate.
"I'm off work, but I haven't eaten yet," Chu Xiao replied one by one.
"So what do you want to cook?"
"Don't know yet."
"I still have the braised pork ribs with potatoes I made in the refrigerator, and I also have braised beef. You can cook noodles with it, and then cook a few pieces of green vegetables at the end, and that will be fine."
"Okay, I understand." Chu Xiao was a rather aloof person. Most of the time, Hua Lan would chatter on and on, and he rarely responded.
However, Hua Lan was used to his dull personality. She had said everything she wanted to say and was ready to hang up.
"I have nothing else to say to you, I'll hang up now."
Chu Xiao leaned back in his chair, looking relaxed. "Mm."
Watching the factory workers gradually leave work, and thinking of Hualan at home yesterday, even the lights seemed warm and cozy.
Chu Xiao's heart stirred slightly, and he called out to Hua Lan, who was about to hang up the phone, "Wait."
"what?"
Hua Lan's soft voice reached his ears through the phone, and inexplicably, a pair of legs suddenly flashed into his mind.
An unnatural look appeared in the man's deep eyes. "I'm away on a business trip. The beef and ribs might spoil. Find some time to go and eat them."
Hua Lan stared blankly at the disconnected phone. "No one took your phone, why did you hang up so quickly?"
But braised pork ribs with potatoes and braised beef... sigh...
"It would be a waste if we didn't eat it, and it's shameful to waste food. Besides, the longer it's left, the easier it will spoil. Let's eat it now."
Hua Lan acted on her idea immediately, taking the subway back to Chu Xiao's house.
