Chapter 98: Chapter 98 I Am the Chairman of Dihao Group
"You... you are the Chairman of Dihao Group?"
Seeing Ye Fan no longer conceal his identity, Yan Shanshan's shocked mouth gaped like a hippopotamus's, almost large enough to swallow a whole watermelon. Discover hidden content at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net
"Oh my god, Ye Fan is our Dihao Group's ever-elusive Chairman?"
"This news is too explosive, the Chairman has been right by my side, and the Chairman actually condescended to work as a small employee in the company, is this a secret visit in disguise?"
"Shush! Definitely, didn't you see even Director Guan Guan Yue was kept in the dark? Manager Yuan is done for, offending the Chairman, she's definitely going to have a taste of her own medicine!"
In an instant, the vast marketing department erupted, with countless people looking at Ye Fan with awe.
Guan Yue spoke solemnly, "That's right, he is the Chairman of our Dihao Group, Ye Fan!"
"Ye Fan is the Chairman? How... how is that possible?" Yan Shanshan was stunned into silence.
Ye Fan had been married to his cousin Su Ruoxue for several years and had always worked at a barbecue stall. How could such an insignificant role suddenly transform into the unattainable Chairman of Dihao Group?
Despite her disbelief, Vice Chairman Guan Yue personally verified Ye Fan's identity, leaving no room for Yan Shanshan to argue.
Yan Shanshan thought all this was a dream, and she pinched herself hard; the clear pain in her arm told her that all of this was real.
Beheld with reverence by everyone, Ye Fan scoffed, "Yan Shanshan, surprised, aren't you?"
"Impossible, this is impossible!" Yan Shanshan shook her head frantically.
Ye Fan knew that his identity had overturned all of Yan Shanshan's values, but he couldn't be bothered to waste too many words on her: "Alright, now you can pack your things and get out! A woman with a heart of a viper like you doesn't deserve to stay at Dihao Group!"
"You... you're telling me to get out?" Yan Shanshan was struck as if by lightning, nearly collapsing.
Guan Yue hadn't expected that an incident involving Yan Shanshan would lead Ye Fan to reveal his identity as Chairman. She asked in surprise, "Director Ye, what on earth is going on?"
"Manager Bi, tell Director Guan what just happened!" Ye Fan said icily.
Bi Yuntao felt a jolt run through his body; he dared not omit any detail, recounting the whole episode of Yan Shanshan calling him to plot against Ye Fan.
After listening, Guan Yue's face turned instantly dark: "Yan Shanshan, I already gave you a chance considering you're a long-time employee. But unexpectedly, you turned right around to scheme against Director Ye. You really have some nerve. Director Ye is right, a scum like you truly doesn't deserve to stay at Dihao Group!"
"Someone, throw Yan Shanshan out for me!"
"Yes!" The security personnel at the door were all alerted.
Seeing herself about to be thrown out of Dihao Group, Yan Shanshan began to panic: "Ye Fan, you... you can't do this to me, I am your cousin, do you believe if I tell Ruoxue about this, she will certainly stand up for me!"
Heh! You also know you're my cousin? Tell me, did you consider any family affection when you targeted me? Throw her out!" Ye Fan chided mercilessly.
Seeing that Ye Fan was truly enraged, Yan Shanshan became frantic: "Ye Fan, I didn't mean it, I apologize to you, an apology is enough, right? I was wrong! For Ruoxue's sake, just give me one more chance!"
She had just been promoted to manager with a substantial salary plus bonuses and various benefits; her annual salary was close to a million. If she were fired by Ye Fan like this, then all her past efforts would go down the drain.
"You also have the face to play the sentiment card with me? Get her out!" Ye Fan ordered again.
To kick out Yan Shanshan, he didn't hesitate to reveal his identity; even now, whatever sentiment card Yan Shanshan played would not sway Ye Fan.
"Even daring to offend Director Ye, get out!"
Two security personnel approached and hoisted Yan Shanshan, who was as pale as a sheet, tossing her out of Dihao Group like trash.
"How could this happen? How could this be? Wuuu..."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Sitting on the ground, Yan Shanshan cried her eyes out, her spirit crushed, filled with endless regret inside her heart.
If only she had known earlier that Ye Fan was the elusive Chairman of Dihao Group, she would definitely have been polite to Ye Fan, and perhaps her status would have risen even higher in not too long.
Too bad, there is no medicine for regret in the world, Yan Shanshan was ashen, her insides twisted with remorse.
When Yan Shanshan was expelled from Dihao Group, Guan Yue asked for instructions, "Director Ye, Marketing Department's Team Nine has just been established, Yan Shanshan has been dismissed, and the manager position is vacant. Do you have a suitable candidate in mind?"
"Her!" Ye Fan pointed to Mu Yurou.
Mu Yurou was stunned. She couldn't believe it and said, "Ye Fan, oh no, Director Ye, you want me to take the role of Team Nine's manager?"
"Yes! Is there a problem?" Ye Fan asked.
He had a good impression of Mu Yurou, and she was also a graduate of a prestigious university with good abilities. Given time, she would certainly make her mark within Dihao Group.
Mu Yurou said with sincere trepidation: "Isn't that inappropriate? I haven't even finished my probation period, I'm afraid I won't do a good job!"
"I trust my judgement, and you should trust yourself. Work hard!" Ye Fan stepped forward and patted Mu Yurou on the shoulder.
Guan Yue also said, "Since Director Ye has already said so, Mu Yurou, you will assume the role of manager for Marketing Department's Team Nine. If you have any problems, you can consult me!"
"Then...okay!" Mu Yurou said apprehensively.
She felt like she was dreaming, the same Ye Fan who had helped her twice turned out to be the chairman of Dihao Group, and he had promoted her to boot.
The next moment, Guan Yue said, "Director Ye, may I have a word with you in private?"
"Let's go!" Ye Fan nodded.
After Ye Fan and Guan Yue left, the entire marketing department looked at Mu Yurou with eyes full of envy.
Being acquainted with the chairman and personally promoted by him was an incredibly rare opportunity. They knew that with Ye Fan's support, Mu Yurou was sure to thrive in the company.
Following Guan Yue to the chairman's office, Guan Yue laughed, "This chairman's office has always been unused, and today it finally has someone!"
"No, I'm just here to make up the numbers; run the company yourself, there's no need to update me unless it's something special!" Ye Fan quickly waved his hand.
Although Dihao Group was indeed one of the top ten domestic enterprises, Ye Fan truly had zero interest in managing the company. Also, Guan Yue was personally chosen by Emperor Tang, so he trusted her capabilities.
When Guan Yue heard this, she made a sour face and said, "You're not being fair, Director Ye, you've just arrived and already want to be a hands-off boss?"
"I'm just an ordinary person, don't think too highly of me!" Ye Fan chuckled lightly.
Guan Yue rolled her eyes in annoyance, "Director Ye, you might fool others, but you can't fool me. If Director Ye is an ordinary person, then why would Emperor Tang entrust Dihao Group to your care?"
"You don't seem to be afraid of me?" Ye Fan said with a look of surprise.
Guan Yue playfully placed her hands on her hips, "You know what, I'm really not afraid of Director Ye. If you're dissatisfied with me, you can replace me. I've been managing Dihao Group almost by myself and it's been exhausting. Please, Director Ye, fire me quickly so I can go to the beach for vacation tomorrow and relax!"
"Thinking of running away? That's not up to you!" Ye Fan was both amused and bewildered.
He too wanted to be a hands-off chairman, so he wasn't going to give Guan Yue the chance to escape. Moreover, he could tell that not only was Guan Yue capable, but her background was also not simple. Ye Fan definitely wouldn't let such a talent slip away.
After reassuring Guan Yue, Guan Yue briefly reported on the recent situation of Dihao Group over the past few years. Before they knew it, evening had fallen.
At dusk, Ye Fan arrived at Baihua Road Experimental Primary School right on time.
"Daddy!"
Little girl Ye Ling'er threw herself into Ye Fan's arms as soon as she saw him.
Picking up his daughter, Ye Fan said affectionately, "Hungry? Let's go home!"
"Uh-huh!" Ye Ling'er nodded cutely.
Plunk!
As father and daughter were on their way home, passing by Yanming Lake, they heard a splash followed by a sharp cry:
"This is bad, this is bad, someone's fallen into the water, hurry, save them!"
