Choi Yun sneered, “What do you want?”
“I can fire you right now!”
“Is that so? I am the financial manager of Mingya, and only President Shen can decide whether I stay or go. Who are you?”
“You!” The man became furious and raised his hand to strike.
Choi Yun sternly warned, “Please mind your words and actions. There are surveillance cameras everywhere here. If you dare to hit me, I will not hesitate to report it. Don’t believe me? Try it!”
Startled by her sudden increase in volume and met with Choi Yun’s fearless gaze, the man snapped back to reality, recalling the purpose of their visit today. His raised hand froze in mid-air.
A silence fell over the room, and the situation became extremely awkward.
Choi Yun stood firm like a seasoned female general, while the man and his team of accountants resembled a defeated army, having thrown down their weapons.
No matter how many of you there are, I can still win with fewer.
Just then—
“How can you make the guests keep standing? Manager Choi, Miao Miao, go get some water for them.”
“President Shen!” Choi Yun’s eyes brightened.
Miao Miao signaled to her with her eyes, and Choi Yun immediately switched to a friendly demeanor. It was as effortless as operating a computer, and it left the men dumbfounded.
“I overlooked it earlier. Please have a seat, everyone.” After Choi Yun spoke, she left with Miao Miao and went to pour water for them.
“Please, have a seat,” Shen Wan gestured towards the sofa opposite her, her smile warm and inviting.
The leading man scrutinized her for a moment. To make subordinates obey her unquestioningly and disregard higher-level instructions, it seemed that Miss Shen, the Third Lady, wasn’t as useless as the rumors suggested.
Following the principle of offering courtesy before combat, since the other side had already taken a step back, the man couldn’t make a scene. He naturally sat down in a friendly manner.
The others who had been subtly following his lead also took their seats.
Soon, Choi Yun and Miao Miao brought freshly brewed tea for the group. They exchanged a glance and respectfully stood on either side of Shen Wan.
Both parties settled on their respective sides, with a glass coffee table in between, creating an atmosphere of standoff.
Shen Wan smiled and said, “I apologize for any oversight earlier. Please, gentlemen, have a seat.” .
“President Shen, you’re too kind. I am Wang Wei, the head of the Asset Liquidation Team in Mingda’s Finance Department.”
“Chief Wang.” She smiled. “You’ve put on quite a show. I wonder what brings you here?”
“Since President Shen asked, I won’t keep you in suspense. I’ll be straightforward.”
Shen Wan nodded, adopting a posture of keen interest.
“Mingya has been experiencing losses for several years, running at a deficit. For the group, it has become quite a burden. Originally, the plan was to have other companies take over, whether through acquisition or merger. In any case, the group no longer intends to keep this subsidiary. Over the past two years, we have been in contact with potential buyers, but the offers have been generally too low. The group doesn’t want to sell at a bargain, so the process has been delayed until today.”
Shen Wan maintained her smile, “So, have you found a suitable buyer now?”
“Not exactly. The group’s intention is to declare bankruptcy directly. Therefore, they have sent me to lead an accounting team to complete the liquidation work. Now that I’ve explained the situation thoroughly, may I ask if President Shen can have your employees provide the financial records for the past years and the necessary documents for liquidation?”
“I’m afraid I can’t.”
The man’s expression shifted slightly, and his voice turned colder, “This is the headquarters’ decision, and I kindly request that you don’t make it difficult for me.”
Miao Miao’s eyes widened, and her palms grew sweaty.
Choi Yun’s heart also raced, suspended in mid-air, neither advancing nor retreating.
However, Shen Wan calmly spoke up—
“It’s not my intention to make things difficult, but this decision came too suddenly. It’s so abrupt that it’s hard not to question its authenticity and reasonableness. Therefore, I need time to verify it..”
