My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Chapter 311: 311 Ye Wenhan’s Villain Triump (2 Updates)

Song Zhizhi was sitting in her office, seriously dealing with work matters.

The reconstruction project of Jinghe Village was still ongoing in full swing.

Jin Xiong, the village head of Jinghe Village, was sentenced to death for suspected murder. Other villagers who supported Jin Xiong received corresponding legal punishments based on the severity of their crimes. The Nanyun officials involved in under-the-table dealings with Jin Xiong were thoroughly investigated. All the suspected personnel were detained and sentenced. This case, which captured the attention of the entire nation, was personally supervised and reviewed by the official family of Yanshang Country and concluded satisfactorily within three short months. The nation received the verdict with great satisfaction.

Consequently, due to the intervention of the officials, Jinghe Village was once again eligible for redevelopment under Commercial Management. However, some villagers still resisted outsiders, causing slight delays to the project.

After the incident, the development project was handed directly from Ye Wenhan to Song Zhizhi.

From the bottom of her heart, Song Zhizhi was eager to liberate Jinghe Village. Therefore, she did not shirk the responsibility, nor could she.

Ye Wenhan had become the helm of the Ye Family. Chu Qin was hospitalized due to severe injuries from the incident. Only she managed to escape unscathed from Jinghe Village. Everyone looked at her differently – the title of the ungrateful person who did nothing to save others from danger was now attached to her. If she rejected the project, she could only imagine how people would slander her.

Not only at Commercial Management, but many people outside were also extremely unsatisfied with her actions this time. A news report specifically covered the incident, particularly her behavior. Fortunately, the news report was ordered to be taken down due to its possible negative impact on officials. It didn’t cause much trouble, but it still tarnished Song Zhizhi’s reputation greatly.

Song Zhizhi chose to remain silent about the incident.

The more she explained, the more people would believe she was guilty. It would be better not to respond at all, let people guess the truth behind it, and then let the matter die down.

She twisted her chair, hearing a knock at the office door.

Zhang He entered from outside. “Manager Song, there will be a meeting for all staff in half an hour. Every staff member is required to attend.”

“Why is there suddenly an all-staff meeting?”

“I heard that the leader of the Ye Family wants to meet with all of the staff in person.”

Song Zhizhi frowned slightly.

Ye Wenhan.

So he’s beginning the public relations game now.

It has been three months since Ye Taiting’s funeral. There hadn’t been any movements from Ye Wenhan until now. After three months of quiescence, he probably began to take action.

She nodded, “Okay, I know.”

Zhang He left.

Song Zhizhi was no longer in the mood to work. She put down the file about the Jinghe Village project and got up from her chair.

It seems that some wars are about to erupt again!

Half an hour later.

Employees of Commercial Management were all seated in the spacious meeting room.

In front of the meeting room, five seats were vacant, facing all employees.

The high-ranking officials of Commercial Management sat in the front row, followed by the rest of the staff, according to their positions.

Song Zhizhi’s position was not important, and she sat in the fifth row.

Next to her sat Chu Qin.

She had returned unexpectedly after three months of recuperation from her injury.

Considering her injuries, she should have been resting for a year or two. Her dedication was indeed admirable.

At this moment, Chu Qin looked at Song Zhizhi and revealed a triumphant smile.

The person happiest about Ye Wenhan’s ascension was Chu Qin.

She was probably mocking Song Zhizhi now, mocking her for misjudging.

Song Zhizhi glanced back at her, ignoring Chu Qin’s gaze completely.

That’s because she knew that the one who misjudged was not her, but Chu Qin.

Soon, Chu Qin would discover Ye Wenhan’s true nature.

In the past, Chu Qin used to fawn over her because she could provide Chu Qin with benefits. Now, with Ye Wenhan’s position, Chu Qin was not even qualified to carry his shoes.

Of course, she would not be kind enough to remind her.

On time.

The door of the meeting room opened. The four chief executives walked in first. Then they formed two lines and Ye Wenhan walked out between them.

The whole room was filled with applause.

Ye Wenhan appeared modest. He bowed deeply to everyone, then joined the four chief executives, sitting in the center.

Qian Guanshu, the Secretary-General, spoke first. “The meeting might have come suddenly, but I have to admit the efficiency of Commercial Management. Seeing everyone sitting down here, I am greatly reassured. I will not say much more. Today, we mainly gather here to introduce Commercial Management’s new leader, Mr. Ye Wenhan. Please welcome him with your applause.”

The meeting room was once again filled with loud applause.

Ye Wenhan stood up and bowed slightly to everyone present.

He took the microphone, “Thank you, Secretary General Qian.”

Qian Guanshu greeted him with a warm smile.

Ye Wenhan spoke, “I believe that most of you know me. I myself am surprised at everything that has transpired, but since it has become a fact, I will take on my future responsibilities. The reason for meeting everyone today is because we will be working together a lot in the future, and at least some of you don’t know me. I hope that this meeting will give everyone a first impression of me. I also have an announcement to make.”

The people below watched him in silence.

“Starting from now, I will be clocking in and out for work at Commercial Management. I will personally handle all the matters of Commercial Management as much as possible. I ask the four chiefs, all department managers, all levels of managers, and all employees to support me.”

His words provoked some murmurs among the crowd.

The one in the driving seat of Commercial Management has always worked behind the scenes. There has never been a case of someone coming to the office in person.

That’s why the Ye family was so mysterious, so much so that Ye Taiting, who had been in charge of Commercial Management for so many years, was recognized by only a few people.

As soon as Ye Wenhan took office, he completely broke this convention.

It had to be said that this action was indeed popular.

Ye Wenhan was too young. If he didn’t take the initiative to show the world his abilities, coupled with the sudden change in his status, it wouldn’t be easy for him to gain people’s trust. This move undoubtedly increased people’s fondness for him.

The scene was once again filled with continuous applause.

Ye Wenhan made some grandiose comments. The meeting didn’t last long and ended.

Song Zhizhi returned to her office, still gasping for air.

Zhang He knocked on the door, “Manager Song, Director Zhan is organizing a department meeting. Apparently the new leader will be attending too.”

Song Zhizhi frowned.

Zhang He said, “Director Zhan asked you to report on the progress of the Jinghe Village project.”

Song Zhizhi just answered with an affirmative.

As expected.

Ye Wenhan’s first achievement was naturally the Jinghe Village project.

For three consecutive months, people had been sabotaging the project from the inside, causing her progress to lag behind. This was probably a deliberate arrangement by Ye Wenhan.

She grabbed her laptop and went straight to the conference room.

All the people involved in the project were present in the meeting room, including the long-absent Chu Qin.

Everyone waited for a few minutes, and then Ye Wenhan appeared with Qian Guanshu.

Ye Wenhan took the seat in the center and glanced at Song Zhizhi.

It was a glance from the victor.

Song Zhizhi sneered secretly.

Zhan Song, with great respect, began to report details of the project to Ye Wenhan.

He had barely spoken a few words.

Ye Wenhan interrupted him directly, “If I remember correctly, the current person in charge of the project is Song Zhizhi.”

Zhan Song was somewhat embarrassed.

Ye Wenhan looked at Song Zhizhi, “You give me the report.”

His tone was naturally commanding.

Song Zhizhi didn’t express any discomfort, she stood up and said, “Yes.”

Ye Wenhan smirked coldly.

Song Zhizhi, did you ever think that one day I would appear before you high and mighty!

“According to the previous plan, Jinghe Village is undergoing refurbishment to become a tourist area. The construction of the roads within it has already begun, and is expected to be completely open to traffic by the end of this year…” Song Zhizhi gave her work report.

Ye Wenhan interrupted deliberately, “Manager Song, I heard that there are problems with the project. The villagers of Jinghe Village are resisting construction of the road, making it impossible for workers to progress smoothly. How are you handling this, Manager Song?”

“Indeed, there are a few villagers who hold steadfast to their old-fashioned beliefs, fearing that external influences will disrupt their ecosystem…”

“I’m asking how you’re handling it! As for the other things, I don’t think you need to report them to me, you should handle them yourself.” Ye Wenhan’s voice was cold.

Song Zhizhi pursed her lips, “How does Mr. Ye think it should be handled? We both conducted preliminary surveys, and I believe Mr. Ye is as aware of the situation as I am. I happen to be rather puzzled by this, and I hope Mr. Ye can offer some advice.”

Ye Wenhan’s face fell.

He hadn’t expected that Song Zhizhi would dare to retaliate with such a question?!
