“Our plans are designed by the top people in the industry. Can the two of you understand?”

He Ming almost couldn’t hold back his sarcasm, but he suppressed it when he thought about work.

“How can we not understand? We are already in the self-media industry.”

Jenny’s tone of Chinese wasn’t quite standard, mixed with English, making it challenging for those around to follow.

Fortunately, there wasn’t excessive trouble. Someone intervened to mediate, and the matter was soon resolved.

Not having seen the company’s CEO, He Ming felt somewhat disheartened.

However, there were quite a few people around mentioning the “Fire Dragon”, which was the company’s CEO. After all, he was famous for his bad temper, so this nickname was well-deserved.

“Why isn’t the Fire Dragon here today?”

“I heard he went to the neighboring city, B City.”

“I’ve noticed that the Fire Dragon has been acting strangely lately. Even after the significant issues in the planning department, there was no accountability. It seems like things changed after the morning with the strawberry mark on his neck…”

“Oh!” That person revealed a knowing smile, and those who understood got it.

“I’ve got some juicy news. Do you want to hear it?” Someone spoke up.

“Tell us! Hurry!”

“I heard that the Fire Dragon is already married!”

“What!”

As the sound fell, the surroundings suddenly went quiet, and many people smirked.

Jin Nian wasn’t interested in other people’s gossip. She was focused on work.

At that moment, Lu An sent a message.

“I have something to attend to today, so 1 might be coming back a bit late.”

Jin Nian was puzzled. Lately, they had been inseparable, and Lu An’s sudden departure left her feeling a bit lost.

“Where did you go?”

“To B City, had some business to handle.”

“I see.” Jin Nian recalled that someone in the company was discussing the CEO’s whereabouts, and it seemed to be B City as well. What a coincidence.

“Do you want any specific food? 1 can have it delivered to your house tonight.”

“No need to bother, 1’11 just have something simple.”

“Alright, don’t be lazy at home, remember to exercise.”

“No.”

The afternoon passed quickly, and Jin Nian had never imagined dealing with such a challenging client. After overcoming numerous obstacles, the proposal was finally approved.

Though Whale’s boss was now Jin Nian’s boss, her actions remained largely unrestricted, similar to before.

Suddenly, Jin Nian was curious about the person they referred to as the “Fire Dragon” and how severe his temper was.

Most people weren’t optimistic about He Ming’s proposal.

Although Whale had considerable influence overseas, it still lacked a foothold in China. He Ming’s idea was to leverage self-media, spreading across media outlets and increasing broadcasts to enhance its popularity.

While it was a simple approach, it was also the most direct.

“Is this the standard of your company?” Jenny suddenly remarked. “Seems a bit too low, doesn’t it?”

“Though it’s simple, it’s also the most direct and effective approach,” Jin Nian calmly replied.

Upon hearing this, Jenny burst into laughter. “Really? Did you come up with all these plans by yourselves?”

“My colleague and I worked on this together. Is there a problem?”

Jenny sneered. “No wonder.”

“If you have a different opinion, feel free to share it.”

Jenny said, “Okay if that’s the case, I’ll tell you. Your plan is f*cking sucks.”

Jin Nian was taken aback. She hadn’t expected him to use such crude language to attack her and He Ming.

Meanwhile, Jenny showed no signs of letting up. He continued, “Any random passerby can come up with such a brainless idea. I don’t know why the boss would spend money acquiring a company like this…”

Jin Nian’s patience reached its limit. Faced with Jenny’s constant provocation, she was about to pick up the document and throw it in his face. But at the last moment, He Ming held her back.

Given the circumstances, He Ming remained composed and said, “Mr. Jenny, do you have any suggestions? We can make revisions to the plan.”

Still, Jenny had no intention of backing down. He crossed his arms and leaned against the chair, enjoying the spectacle. “I’m under no obligation to help you modify the plan, but you know that I’m dissatisfied with this plan.”

Jin Nian had never been at such a loss for words.

Jenny glanced at the two of them, smirked derisively, and left the conference room.

Seeing this, other colleagues chimed in to comfort them.

“That’s just how he is. He’s flaunting his overseas education and the fact that he’s an old-timer in the company. He’s been strutting around, and we’ve long found it disagreeable.”

Jin Nian understood. It was difficult for such individuals to get along with others harmoniously, leading to many grievances.

Ultimately, Jin Nian had chosen this job herself. Who could guarantee that she wouldn’t encounter oddballs at work? She could only admit that she was unlucky.

He Ming wasn’t the type to cause trouble. He just wanted to complete the mission well.

In this situation, he could only swallow his anger and say, “It’s alright. Sometimes it’s better to give way.”

In the afternoon, the two of them discussed once more and finally arrived at a new proposal..
