Chapter 352: Going back home

"But CEO!" The board members can't stand it. How could Chu Jingi not face any punishment after how much damage he caused to the company?

Tan Quan sighs, "What's done is done. There's nothing we can do about it now." He turns to Chu Jingyi. "Chu Jingyi, be mindful of what you say from now on. Remember that you are the face of Silverlight. What you say will affect Silverlight's image."

Hearing this, Chu Jingyi smiles and bows his head, "I understand. I will keep this in mind." He doesn't say more as he leaves the room.

"Meeting adjourned." Tan Quan walks out of the room as well. Once the two left, the other board members couldn't help but curse out,

"How can we let Chu Jingyi get away like this!" They can't believe Chu Jingyi got off scot-free after causing so much trouble.

"What can we do about it? Chu Jingyi is the CEO's favorite." The person who hired Chu Jingyi was Tan Wuan. He had been the one to cultivate him into the star he is today. So Chu Jingyi's words held a lot of weight.

"Do you really think Chu Jingyi would still have power after a few years?" Besides being Tan Quan's favorite, the other reason why is because of his popularity. That board member continues,

"After a few years, he won't be as popular as before." The other board member's expressions turn evil hearing that.

...

While that happened, Zhang Jian was standing in front of his home. Zhang Jian's expression was dull. The reason he's standing there is that his family messages him to come home.

He's been staying at the company for the past week.

Zhang Jian walks in, "I'm home." When he walks in, the butler greets him, "Welcome back, young master. The master wishes to speak to you. He's in his study room."

When Zhang Jian was about to walk away, a voice called out to him,

"Zhang Jian, you have come home? Why were you?" A woman begins to question him.

Zhang Jian gives her a dirty look, "You don't need to know."

"I'm your mother. I deserve to know where my son went,"

When Zhang Jian hears that, his face turns dirty. He doesn't say anything back and continues to walk towards the study room.

When he walks in, Zhang Jian sees his father talking on his phone.

"What do you want?" Zhang Jian's voice's indifferent as he says this. Instead of getting a response, his father, Zhang Guo, only puts his hand in the air, making him wait.

Right now, he's on the phone with one of his business partners.

Zhang Jian stands there while tapping his shoulders, already annoyed with the situation. After Zhang Guo finished with the call, Zhang Jian asks him again,

"So, what do you want?" Knowing his father's personality, Zhang Jian knows there's a reason for him to call him out.

"Starting tomorrow, I want you to work at the company."

"...Excuse me?" Zhang Jian needed a double-take on what he had just heard.

"I want you to work at the company. We have an opening, and I want you to take it."

"Forget about it. Give it to somebody else. I'm not going to work at the company."

Zhang Guo's expression turns dark, "I let you play that game of yours and waited for it to be over."

"Game?" Now it's Zhang Jian's turn to be angry, "How is it a game?" All his hard work and achievements that he made. Yet all of this is nothing but a joke to his father.

"You lost. It's time for you to grow up."

"It's only one loss!" Zhang Jian didn't think his father would be this dramatic.

"Do you really think you can become a star? Do you know how many people have tried and failed? I'm giving you a golden opportunity to take over the company."

"Also here." Zhang Guo then hands Zhang Jian a folder.

"?" When Zhang Jian looks inside, there's a photo of a girl. She's beautiful, but not to Zhang Jian's taste.

"Who's this?"

"Your mother arranged a marriage meeting with her. She's beautiful and from an influential family as well." If it was the usual, Zhang Jian might have gone.

But not this time.

"..." Zhang Jian got the picture now. The veins on Zhang Jian's head are about to explode! He slams the folder down to the ground!
