My Ares Son-in-Law

Xiao Chen has already gained the absolute upper hand, and he can only passively accept the arrangement of fate.

At this moment, Wang Hao felt an unprecedented powerlessness and despair. It was as if all his strength had been drained away, and he collapsed completely, watching his world crumble bit by bit.

At this time, Xiao Chen's gaze shifted away from Wang Hao and turned to Guo She, his eyes revealing an unquestionable firmness.

"Manager Guo," he said calmly but with a force that could not be refused, "Please call the company and tell Wang Xiong and Lin Youya about my decision. If they can accept my terms, I will naturally go back to deal with those matters; otherwise, there is no need to waste any more time."

Wang Hao was filled with anxiety and despair when he heard this. He knew that once he made this call, his fate would be sealed.

He tried to speak to stop him, but his voice was hoarse due to nervousness: "No...don't..." However, this weak resistance seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Xiao Chen's determination.

Guo She, a veteran who had worked in the company for many years, showed his unique vision and tact at this moment. He did not respond directly to Wang Hao's plea, but quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and slid his fingers across the screen quickly, as if he had already prepared Wang Xiong's contact information in advance.

There was not much expression on his face, only his eyes, scanning back and forth between Wang Hao and Xiao Chen, as if weighing the scales of this silent contest.

"Beep...beep..." The sound of the phone being connected was particularly harsh in the empty office, and Wang Hao's heart rose to his throat. He understood that at this moment, his fate was no longer completely in his own hands.

Guo She showed a professional smile on his face and began to report the situation to the person on the other end of the phone. Although his voice was soft, every word was clear. Every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Wang Hao's already shaky psychological defenses.

His words were full of respect for Xiao Chen's decision and loyalty to his superiors, perfectly interpreting his neutral position in the company and his superb philosophy of life.

Wang Hao could only watch all this happen, with mixed feelings in his heart. He was angry at Xiao Chen's ruthlessness, but also regretted what he had done; he was heartbroken by Guo She's "betrayal", but he had to admit that the other party's choice was so wise and realistic.

At this moment, he seemed to be stripped of all his disguise and dignity, and ruthlessly exposed to the cruelty of reality.

Inside the restaurant, soft lights sprinkled on every inch of space, but seemed unable to dispel the atmosphere of tension and expectation in the air.

Wang Hao was like a squid placed on a hot iron plate, twisting his body constantly. The dense beads of sweat on his forehead and the anxious eyes all revealed his inner torment and anxiety.

From time to time, he glanced at Xiao Chen, who was leisurely enjoying the food. That calm attitude was like a sharp sword, piercing his sensitive nerves.

Yao Qingqing sat aside, her cheeks slightly flushed with excitement, her eyes sparkling with anticipation, as if she was about to witness a major turning point. Her mood was like a flower about to bloom, full of longing and curiosity for the unknown result. Around her, those onlookers who recognized Wang Hao could not hold back their curiosity. They either whispered or cast complicated glances. Everyone was like a bystander in this silent contest, quietly waiting for the upcoming result.

Xiao Chen was the focus of the restaurant. His every move was particularly eye-catching. The cutlery in his hand gently hit the porcelain plate, making a crisp and pleasant sound, which was in sharp contrast to his mood at the moment.

With his current status and strength, the worldly disturbances seemed nothing more than passing clouds to him. Those who tried to challenge his authority were as insignificant as ants in his eyes and could be crushed at any time. The confidence and calmness brought by this power allowed him to remain calm and uninhibited in the face of any situation.

"If you give me face, you are a manager. If you don't give me face, you are nothing." This sentence echoed in his heart, which was his profound understanding of the fickleness of the world and the warmth and coldness of human feelings, and also a portrayal of his style of doing things. He knew very well that in this realistic and cruel world, only the strong can make rules, and the weak can only follow them.

At this time, Guo She stood aside holding the phone, his expression was complicated and contradictory. He looked at Wang Hao with eyes full of worry and sympathy, but reason told him that he had to make the right choice at this time.

The phone in his hand seemed like a hot potato, making him hesitant. Should he convey this news that might change Wang Hao's fate, or choose to remain silent and preserve a bit of dignity for this former colleague?
"What did Director Wang say?" There was a barely perceptible tremor in Wang Hao's voice. He took a step forward eagerly, his eyes fixed on the phone in Guo She's hand, as if it was not just a communication tool, but the key to determine his fate.

Guo She sighed softly, and that sigh contained too many complex emotions - sympathy, helplessness, and perhaps a hint of relief. He slowly handed the phone to Wang Hao, and the moment their fingers touched, it seemed as if an electric current passed through, conveying an indescribable heaviness.

Wang Hao took the phone with trembling hands. At that moment, time seemed to freeze. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and then slowly put the phone close to his ear.

As Mr. Wang's familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone, his face turned pale as paper in an instant, his eyes widened, and his pupils lost their former luster. He seemed to have his soul taken away. He stood there in a daze, and almost dropped the phone in his hand.

The people around him looked at him with either sympathy or indifference. Although they had not heard the content of the call, they could guess something from Wang Hao's reaction.

Yao Qingqing giggled at the side, with a hint of pride and relief in her smile. She turned to look at Xiao Chen, her eyes flashing with admiration, as if at this moment, Xiao Chen's image in her heart became even taller and more unshakable.

"Manager Xiao is amazing!" She praised softly. Although her voice was soft, it was loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly. This sentence was like a gust of wind, blowing away the dullness in the restaurant and blowing into everyone's heart.

In just a few days, Xiao Chen overthrew Wang Hao, the powerful deputy general manager and human resources manager of the group, with a thunderous momentum. Such an achievement not only makes people marvel at his ability and means, but also makes people full of expectations and curiosity about his future movements.

Looking at Wang Hao's distraught appearance, Guo She shook his head again, his eyes showing both sympathy and relief. (End of this chapter)
