Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 862: Chapter 862 Swift and Decisive

Bai Xiaosheng originally wanted to have a word with Sun Mingyu and have a good chat.

After all, they were both Affairs Officers. Even though his position as a New-type Affairs Officer had a bit more authority, there was no fundamental difference between them. No one was superior or inferior, at least not drastically so.

However, seeing Sun Mingyu’s arrogant demeanor, and even his assistant Cheng Wei carrying such an air of importance,

Bai Xiaosheng felt that when necessary, he had to wave the banner of Sir Xiahou Qi to give Sun Mingyu a good knock on the head.

What he never expected was...

As soon as he revealed his identity, the other party caved immediately, and so thoroughly at that.

Bai Xiaosheng was stunned.

Clearly, he had yet to accurately assess how much of a stir he had caused in the Department of Affairs and the extent of the upheaval his presence had invoked.

Having escaped the storm early on, he was unaware of what his ”legend” within the Department of Affairs had become.

Of course, this was also partly due to Xiahou Qi’s deliberate stirring of the waters.

Are the Affairs Officers of the Department of Affairs truly selfless and altruistic?

Not at all!

Xiahou Qi had long realized that the Affairs Officers, who had long enjoyed exclusive powers, had subtly developed a consensus of superiority over the years.

Some even openly claimed that Affairs Officers could oversee those with real power, yet no one oversaw them.

This kind of thinking was dangerous!

Therefore, Xiahou Qi decided to take advantage of the emergence of the New-type Affairs Officer as an opportunity to make a move using Bai Xiaosheng.

Xiahou Qi even hinted at increasing some powers of the New-type Affairs Officer,

such as overseeing their peers and even questioning the Senior Affairs Officers.

Xiahou Qi’s intention was akin to throwing a fierce and unconventional catfish like Bai Xiaosheng into the increasingly stagnant Affairs Department, to stir up the still waters!

This was the ”Catfish Effect”!

Bai Xiaosheng was that catfish!

Xiahou Qi had put out the word, but the responsibilities were still being finalized and had not been officially announced.

Of course, no one informed Bai Xiaosheng.

However, Sun Mingyu, who had just come from headquarters, knew about it!

Add to that, rampant rumors said that Bai Xiaosheng, as a New-type Affairs Officer with only a two-year term, would, in order to rise up, relentlessly target ”big fish” without fear or favour.

These big fish were the Affairs Officers and Senior Affairs Officer ranks!

Hearing these rumors repeatedly, how could one not be afraid!

Therefore, Sun Mingyu caved instantly in public, not only without feeling embarrassed but also enthusiastically inviting Bai Xiaosheng to sit together and foster a good relationship.

The least he could do was to ensure Bai Xiaosheng didn’t target him!

His attitude was almost a reflection of how Chen Qingyun and others treated him.

It was hard to decline such hospitality. Bai Xiaosheng, with a smile on his face, followed Sun Mingyu to the General Manager’s office at Liucheng Real Estate.

Sun Mingyu stepped in first and then closed the door behind him. He even shut their assistants out.

Outside the door, Chen Qingyun and Han Xuancheng were at a loss, completely dumbfounded.

Su Dazhong stood like a wooden sculpture, not knowing what to do.

Cheng Wei, seeing his own leader taking action and wanting to follow suit, approached Lin Weiwei with a full smile, trying to get close.

Having previously looked down upon these temporary affairs assistants, now knowing they were under Bai Xiaosheng, Cheng Wei made no secret of his envy.

Although Bai Xiaosheng was as ferocious as a hyena, seeing everyone as prey, and doomed to be friendless,

following such a leader meant greater dangers but also greater opportunities!

Fortune favors the bold; which affairs assistant wanted to painstakingly climb up step by step in stability, when they were not even Affairs Officers.

Regrettably, there were only two positions available under Bai Xiaosheng, and they had been given to his own confidants. The rest of the affairs assistants could only look on with envy.

Though they were temporary affairs assistants, they had skyrocketed from corporate staff to the top without any assessments, unlike them, who were all general managers ranked at the top of successive assessments.

Who could they complain to about such matters? It all came down to different strokes for different folks!

”You two have also had a tough time, why don’t we go to another office, take a break, and have some tea?” Cheng Wei was more than polite, he was downright reverent.

In Cheng Wei’s view, perhaps these two individuals had good fortune and might one day become his superiors, which made it absolutely necessary not to antagonize them.

”Thank you, Mr. Cheng, but we still have work to do!”

Lin Weiwei replied with a slight smile, politely declining, and then she headed straight for Su Dazhong.

”Mr. Su, we would like to proceed with the investigation now, can you cooperate with us?”

Su Dazhong paused for two seconds, then hurriedly nodded, ”Yes, of course!”

He realized that Bai Xiaosheng was not only an Affairs Officer but also a supremely formidable character within the role.

I always said, Bai Xiaosheng, such a character is nearly demonic; is he an ordinary person? Su Dazhong sighed inwardly.

”Let’s go, I’ll take you there!” Su Dazhong didn’t forget to throw a cold glance at Chen Qingyun and Han Xuancheng, who were watching him with unease.

Their fear brought him a sense of satisfaction.

At this moment, Chen Qingyun and Han Xuancheng dared not utter a word, let alone obstruct.

Su Dazhong led Lin Weiwei away.

However, Lei Ying approached Chen Qingyun and Han Xuancheng with an expressionless face and said, ”Find a place, let’s have a chat too!”

Chen Qingyun and the others shuddered at the look in Lei Ying’s eyes.

It should be said that they had seen all kinds of people; they were adults, not the kind to be intimidated by a single look.

Yet looking into the eyes of this big man, they couldn’t help but feel a creeping fear and chill from deep within.

This shouldn’t be surprising!

Those who have been on the battlefield and taken lives have a dreadful deterrence in their eyes; once they harbor animosity towards someone, even the slightest bit, it’s enough to make one feel like prey!

And the more experienced one is, the more likely one is to perceive the terror and to be frightened by it.

Lei Ying had been itching to take action, and his starting point was the subject of the investigation.

Before coming, Lin Weiwei had designed for him a series of questions and objectives.

Lei Ying was not just a brute who knew nothing but fists and knives; he was clever, so clever that he managed to integrate interrogation techniques learned on the battlefield with investigative methods, a notion so outlandish that even Lin Weiwei found it incredible.

This time, Lei Ying put it into practice.

”Okay, you—you follow me,” Chen Qingyun knew he couldn’t escape it and managed to force a smile, uglier than crying.

Han Xuancheng also smiled as if he were about to cry.

The two of them led Lei Ying to the adjacent office ”for a chat.”

”I might as well come along and help you,” Cheng Wei seized the opportunity to get closer to Lei Ying.

”No need!” Lei Ying pointed at the doorway, his tone almost commanding, ”Just stay here!”

”Ah!” Cheng Wei subconsciously complied, agreeing.

An hour later.

Bai Xiaosheng and Sun Mingyu came out of the office.

Learning that Sir Xiahou Qi had even increased his authority, Bai Xiaosheng was surprised and satisfied.

When they came out, everyone had rushed back.

”The evidence is conclusive, we can report it!” Lin Weiwei said just this to Bai Xiaosheng.

The investigation was over already, the evidence conclusive? It could be reported!

Sun Mingyu saw Chen Qingyun and Han Xuancheng’s faces ashen and noticed Su Dazhong’s lively spirit, and was suddenly shocked.

What kind of speed was this in handling affairs!

Bai Xiaosheng was fierce as a wolf, and so were his subordinates!

Utterly terrifying indeed!

”Then we’ll be taking our leave, Affairs Officer Sun, we’ll meet again!” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile to Sun Mingyu.

Sun Mingyu hurriedly responded politely, then watched as Bai Xiaosheng, bringing Su Dazhong and two assistants, left confidently.

He was silent for a long time and after much struggle, he could only utter, ”Seeing is truly believing!”
