Chapter 74: Chapter 70 Xue Qi Acts_2
Shen Hanxiu’s expression was grim, and he spoke indifferently: “How soon is ‘soon’?”
In the eerily silent conference room, his voice was light, yet it sent chills down everyone’s spine, causing those below not even to dare breathe.
Minister Wang responded with reluctance, “Could we… wait for another five minutes?”
However, Shen Hanxiu immediately replied, “Does Minister Wang understand what five minutes mean?”
“I’m sorry, President Shen. I guarantee it won’t happen again.”
“What I require is not an apology but efficiency. If everyone keeps dragging their feet like this, it affects not only the company’s operation but the pace of the entire society.”
...
Minister Wang broke out in a cold sweat silently cursing Su Nian. If it weren’t for her, he wouldn’t be getting trained here.
But President Shen’s temper today seemed comparatively better. Had it been in the past, he would have stormed out with a slam of the files. Today, however, he remained silent, quietly sitting in his seat.
And people below felt on pins and needles; even five minutes seemed unbearable.
Just as the atmosphere in the conference room became increasingly quiet and eerie, the door made a noise. A girl in a professional suit, looking still distinctively beautiful and carrying a blue folder, stood gasping by the door: “I’m sorry…”
Minister Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief, whispering to Su Nian, “Hurry over!”
Su Nian glanced at the man with an unsightly complexion in the [main][seat] seat, calming her rushed breath as she walked into the silent conference room.
Before Su Nian even reached Minister Wang, Yang Zichen and Shen Hanxiu exchanged brief glances before speaking, “Please Accountant Su come up to report.”
Su Nian was shocked, was she reporting? Wasn’t the minister supposed to report?
Could she, a mere accountant, attend such a solemn meeting?
With doubts and staring at Shen Hanxiu’s increasingly cold expression, Su Nian mustered her courage to walk onto the stage.
Not knowing how the others reported, she followed what was on the projector and reported the tedious numbers one by one…
Her voice was still a bit breathless, but it sounded crisp and clear, still as pleasant as before, calming people’s minds.
Although the content was dull, it was enjoyable.

Until long after her voice stopped, Shen Hanxiu still hadn’t snapped out of it.
With Shen Hanxiu not speaking, everyone else dared not make a sound.
Su Nian also stood bewildered on stage, thinking she must have said something wrong and began to get nervous…
Seeing that Shen Hanxiu hadn’t spoken for a long time, Yang Zichen deliberately picked up Su Nian’s folder and handed it to Shen Hanxiu saying, “Please, President Shen, take a look,” reminding him to return from his thoughts.
Regaining his senses as everyone’s gaze turned to him, Shen Hanxiu looked down at the blue folder, then raised his head to look at the somewhat nervous woman on stage.
Everyone thought this was a prelude to President Shen’s anger, but contrary to expectations, he lightly opened his mouth to ask, “Were all these just completed?”
Su Nian was startled, not quite understanding what he meant, when Minister Wang immediately nodded, “Yes, President Shen. Accountant Su just started redoing them this morning.”
Those around exchanged glances, those who understood the matter exclaimed in admiration, for being able to produce such detailed statistics in such a short time, this woman was extraordinary.
Shen Hanxiu’s expression inadvertently softened a lot. Listening to the people’s admiration, his lips lightly curled, and within that smile seemed to be a hint of… pride.
This woman might be slow-witted, but he knew her memory was exceptional; achieving such a task wasn’t surprising. His question was merely to highlight her strengths in front of everyone, showcasing her exceptional traits.
Standing onstage, Su Nian looked at Shen Hanxiu’s changing expressions, his thin lips barely parting to quietly say, “Well done.”
Hearing his commendation, everyone in the room felt relieved, especially Minister Wang.
After returning to the department, upon hearing about Su Nian’s accomplishment, everyone realized that they had a prodigy hidden within, even if they disapproved a bit of her personal life, they couldn’t deny her work capability.
With so much data, she had accurately memorized it all.
Everyone praised Su Nian, except for Xue Qi who sat silently in the corner.
Never would she expect that at such a stage, Su Nian could turn the tables!
Su Nian also glanced back at Xue Qi but didn’t publicly point it out.
During lunch, Su Nian eventually told Wei Lan about it, and Wei Lan furiously berated Xue Qi.
“Sister Niannian, you should expose her, then she definitely won’t be hired by the company, and you won’t have to see her anymore!”
Su Nian remained silent for a moment and said, “Forget it, there’s no evidence, and if exposed, she won’t admit to it anyway, everyone has their own story, and it wouldn’t be clear.”
“Just letting it go? Isn’t that letting her off too easily?”
Su Nian thoughtfully smiled and replied to Wei Lan, “Do you think Sister Niannian is such an easy target?”
…
After this setback, Xue Qi was subdued for a few days.
But without facing any repercussions, she was as arrogant as ever.
In the restroom, she said, “Su Nian, you were lucky this time, but it might not be the case next time.”
Su Nian turned on the tap and began washing her hands as she said, “I don’t think you pose any threat to me.”
“Hmph, wherever I am, you won’t be, one day you’ll be kicked out of Sheng Han!”
Su Nian, dismissive of her confidence, replied, “Xue Qi, don’t forget you’re just an intern now, better keep your hands clean.”
Xue Qi’s pupils dilated, watching Su Nian turn to leave, but she remained in a daze for a long while.
What did she mean by that? Did Su Nian know everything?!
Impossible, absolutely impossible, it’s not something an ordinary person could notice!
Panicked, Xue Qi glanced at herself in the mirror, then composed her expression before walking out of the restroom.
