Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1246: Chapter 123 Ready to Go

Blinking, another day had dawned.

After an entire day of fermenting yesterday, and the ”relentless efforts” of An Zaiyi and a few others fanning the flames behind the scenes.

This morning, on Nanyu’s side, the Affairs Officers grew increasingly uneasy.

It was counted; by noon, there were already twenty-five Affairs Officers here who had received ”punishment” from headquarters!

And word was spreading that this number could still increase!

As long as everyone remained in Nanyu, as long as no one returned to headquarters, the number of punished could only increase.

Today it might be him, tomorrow it could be you!

Under such talk, who wouldn’t be frightened!

In this world, one’s backbone is crucial, one’s stance is equally important, but it must be admitted, for many people, the rice bowl matters the most!

Losing one’s rice bowl, surviving would be difficult; talking to them about integrity, that would be asking too much of them.

Those who are transcendent in character, who are upright and unyielding, why are they admired by all, because it is truly difficult to achieve.

Under the pervasive unease, work on Nanyu’s side became overall sluggish, some simple tasks that should have been done earlier dragged on half-heartedly with many oversights.

Continuing in this state, the investigation progress of Bai Xiaosheng and others might as well come to a halt.

It’s likely that on the sides of Li Haofeng, Zheng Honghu, and Xu Youruo, the situation would be similar.

Shen Peishen’s move to ”remove the fuel from under the pot” was severe and venomous.

An Zaiyi had made his rounds in the morning, listening to the numerous complaints, hearing their dissatisfaction towards Bai Xiaosheng, secretly delighted, he even collected some remarks, recorded them, and sent them to Lin Yu via phone.

These could all be considered An Zaiyi’s ”achievements”, which he hastened to report, lest those few ”insiders” report them first and put him at a disadvantage.

The hard work of An Zaiyi wasn’t in vain.

At the very least, Lin Yu had already praised him many times in replies, even encouraging him a few times.

Being valued by the most trusted student of Sir Shen was also a felicitous affair!

This meant more security in future prospects!

An Zaiyi, looking at the reply from Lin Yu, also felt secretly pleased.

While he was delighted, Lei Ying was reporting to Bai Xiaosheng.

Before Bai Xiaosheng, a report lay.

On it, information about six individuals was listed, including their words and deeds over the past two days.

Lei Ying was extremely adept at this kind of work.

Bai Xiaosheng had even joked that it was a waste for Lei Ying to enter the workforce; he should have been in a spy agency instead.

”These top five individuals, confirmed to be safe, are the people installed by Shen Peishen. As for the sixth person, he has actually participated very little in this matter, but I still feel there is an issue, just that due to short time, I lack incontrovertible proof and haven’t verified further. My suspicions, more than anything, are based on intuition,” Lei Ying discussed with Bai Xiaosheng, ”I think we can handle them separately, deal with the first five robustly, and shall we just observe the sixth one a bit longer?”

Bai Xiaosheng skimmed it, looked up at Lei Ying, and smiled, ”No need, since he’s aroused your suspicion, I believe there must be a problem! Your intuition, to me, is more convincing than evidence!”

Hearing Bai Xiaosheng say so, Lei Ying also smiled.

Lin Weiwei knocked and entered, nodding at Lei Ying, and told Bai Xiaosheng, ”Everything has been arranged, we can start by the end of the workday.”

Bai Xiaosheng nodded in satisfaction.

Preparations were in place, just waiting for the afternoon to break the tricky situation crafted by Shen Peishen’s side.

”Honestly, we are already fully prepared, why must we wait until the end of the workday, we could handle it right now,” Lei Ying wondered.

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, with a slightly sadistic pleasure, ”After all, it’s their clever move, letting them feel smug for a bit longer is good! Breaking it too quickly would only make them plot another scheme against us.”

That said, it made sense.

However, Lei Ying still felt it lacked a bit of persuasiveness.

Bai Xiaosheng felt somewhat guilty, inwardly thinking, ”I still want to wait for more punishment notices from Shen Peishen’s side. That way, my ’harvest’ will be greater. Since it’s all about undermining the group, then digging a bit more wouldn’t hurt...”

”No, wait, the entire group will be mine in the future, what does undermining the group mean, it’s just like moving from the left pocket to the right. It’s not benefiting anyone else...”

Thinking this, Bai Xiaosheng felt perfectly at ease.

These little thoughts, can’t be spoken out loud.

Bai Xiaosheng turned to Lin Weiwei, seriously said, ”Weiwei, some of the less important tasks can be left in chaos, just to paralyze Shen Peishen and his people. But for those critical tasks, you must arrange for reliable people to keep a close eye. As long as the core tasks are flawless, the minor losses caused by this chaos are nothing to fear.”

Lin Weiwei nodded, ”I have been keeping an eye on it, don’t worry, the important parts have been proceeding with the original efficiency and quality.”

Having said that, Lin Weiwei added a sentence, ”Xiaosheng, you have reminded me not just once.”

Bai Xiaosheng laughed at himself, ”I’ve also nagged Li Haofeng and others, and they also think I worry too much. Sigh, sometimes I feel, a young man like me, actually has a mind like a nagging old woman.”

This self-mockery from Bai Xiaosheng made Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Actually, it hasn’t been easy for Bai Xiaosheng, facing enemies who have always been tough.

Facing those people, if he doesn’t think more meticulously, consider everything more comprehensively, and instruct more carefully, fatal mistakes could be made, losing everything in one false step!

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying could completely understand.

...

An Zaiyi spent the morning making rounds, and in the afternoon secretly communicated with a few others who also had the ”traitor” disposition.

Before today’s workday ended, they planned to incite those Affairs Officers who had been punished by the headquarters to create havoc in Bai Xiaosheng’s office.

At the same time, they spread the news to the Affairs Officers who were anxiously waiting and had not yet been punished to also go and see.

To see how useless their ”loyal” Bai Xiaosheng is, and what kind of consequences they would face following him.

To show them, what consequences they would face by opposing Sir Shen!

An Zaiyi envisioned standing in front of a hundred colleagues, commanding attention, and sternly questioning a Senior Affairs Officer!

Just the thought of it made his body tremble with excitement, his feet feel light, a great pleasure rushing straight to his brain.

Though he might never reach the position of a Senior Affairs Officer in his lifetime, how does that matter, to lead in rebuking a Senior Affairs Officer, that would be something he could boast about for a lifetime!

Officer Lin Yu and Sir Shen had received his news early in the morning and were surely waiting for good news!

”This time I must do it perfectly! To earn the respect from those two!” An Zaiyi was also a person ”with ideals and goals.”

Walking back to the Affairs Officers’ office, An Zaiyi couldn’t help but frequently check the time.

From two o’clock in the afternoon to now four o’clock, if stares could materialize, the watch face would probably be worn out by his gaze.

”Back to the office, just another hour or so, and it’s our time to move, and it will be the time for me, An Zaiyi, to shine!” An Zaiyi thought so.

When he reached the office door assigned to them, An Zaiyi was just about to open it but found it opened from the inside.

A young woman was walking out, it was Bai Xiaosheng’s assistant—Lin Weiwei.

”Assistant Lin!” An Zaiyi was caught off guard and startled.

As Lin Weiwei caught sight of him, she was briefly surprised and then with a sardonic smile said, ”Isn’t this Officer An? You haven’t been in the office all afternoon, I see you’ve been quite busy!”

”Hehe, where, where, it’s all work...” An Zaiyi laughed awkwardly, trying to dodge the question, then with a flicker in his eyes, asked Lin Weiwei, ”Assistant Lin, what brings you here, is there something?”

At this time, it’s unlikely Lin Weiwei is here to assign work or request results.

Her appearance here thus became somewhat intriguing.

An Zaiyi was also a shrewd person.

”It’s nothing much, I am just here to inform everyone, in twenty minutes, Xiaosheng the Senior Affairs Officer will be holding a meeting concerning those penalties issued by the headquarters!” Lin Weiwei didn’t hide anything, telling him straightforwardly.

An Zaiyi was astonished.

Bai Xiaosheng was actually going to proactively call for a meeting?

What solution had he thought of?

Before An Zaiyi could probe further, Lin Weiwei spoke up first, ”I see everyone looks worried, but Officer An still can manage to smile. At the meeting, make sure to offer plenty of suggestions.”

An Zaiyi immediately adjusted his expression, coughing once, ”Actually, I am also very anxious...”

”I wonder, how will Xiaosheng the Senior Affairs Officer solve the problem?” An Zaiyi asked cautiously.

Lin Weiwei smiled brightly, passing by An Zaiyi.

”When the time comes, you’ll naturally know! For now, just keep a sense of anticipation!”
