Chapter 1168: Chapter 1167: Still Too Young After All

Xue Sen quickly took out his phone, opened WeChat, and looked at Xu Ke’s message. His feelings were particularly complex at this moment. If all of this was false, then this prank would have caused his friends to lose face.

Fried Rice (Xue Sen): Are you there? I’m already at the entrance of your company, but the receptionist won’t let me up, saying there’s no appointment.

Yet, Xue Sen anxiously waited for a long time and still didn’t receive any reply.

Thus, I, Xue Sen, am genuinely scared now.

At this time, Xu Ke was working in the office, not looking at his phone at all, and today’s tasks were left unfinished.

"Redo all of these for me!"

After hearing Xu Ke’s words, the secretary was slightly incredulous, pointing at the documents: "President, do all of these need to be redone?"

These were proposals from various departments across the company, some had taken months to complete, and were thoroughly checked countless times. Unexpectedly, the president dismissed them all within a morning.

Xu Ke raised his head from the pile of documents, his gaze sharp!

"What? Do you need me to say it again?"

Upon hearing Xu Ke’s words, the secretary hurriedly left.

If she stayed longer, things would really be over.

After the secretary left, Xu Ke put down his pen and reconsidered the company’s employees. Actually, those who remained hadn’t slackened in their work, but their fixed model was real estate.

They know nothing about the company’s industry transition. The previous reports showing real estate weren’t done excellently, and when the new proposal required them to write a simple role, they couldn’t even manage that.

Thinking of this, he rubbed his aching temples, unexpectedly finding himself in this situation.

Initially, he thought these people, being veteran employees, couldn’t be laid off too much, but under these circumstances, it just wouldn’t do; these people were unwilling to change.

Meanwhile, the secretary went to the lobby, saw three youngsters in a standoff with the receptionist, and took a closer look.

One young man particularly seemed quite anxious.

The receptionist saw it was the president’s secretary and quickly said, "Secretary, there are three college students here wanting to see the president. How about..."

Now she reported everything to the secretary to see what she would do. Even if something goes wrong, it would be the secretary’s responsibility.

This secretary freshly came out of various departments; while they didn’t dare complain about the president, they would say as much as possible about her, even making unpleasant remarks.

Isn’t she just a runner?

Originally, these things should be reported to the president, but now the president was reticent and resolute, leaving her too scared to speak, fearing the president would consider it a trivial matter.

Hence, after hearing the receptionist shirk responsibilities, she sighed deeply; no wonder the president wanted to reorganize the company.

Logically, when someone is looking for the president, the receptionist should call the other two assistants, but the receptionist simply didn’t do it.

The secretary turned to the three college students with a forced smile, since it was already handed to her, she had to brave it.

"Give me the phone!"

The secretary picked up the receptionist’s phone and directly called the president’s office. Xu Ke looked at the phone and then answered it.

Xue Sen felt particularly uneasy at this moment, and the other two felt frightened, nervous, and uneasy.

"President, there are three kids waiting for you downstairs."

When Xu Ke heard this, he frowned. Three kids.

"Did you find out why?"

The secretary then realized she hadn’t asked, hitting her forehead lightly.

Despite always being cautious, she still made a mistake.

"What are you here for?"

Although the secretary’s voice was especially soft, Xu Ke still heard: "Called me without even asking clearly, what are you doing?"

"Hand them the phone!"

Trying hard to suppress his temper, he was truly furious.

The secretary held the phone, feeling it was like a hot potato, on the verge of tears. It was all the receptionist’s doing, trying to find trouble for her. Now, look, she got reprimanded by the president.

She glared at the receptionist, handed the phone to the three: "Hello, our president asks you to take the call. You’d better explain clearly what you’re here for."

The three exchanged glances; Xue Sen slowly stepped forward, now seeing the tense atmosphere of the company, he felt that it was fake. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Such a serious company, how could they possibly recruit college students like them, especially with such a big company, it seemed even less likely.

Hearing no response, Xu Ke frowned tightly. At this moment, he heard a particularly uncertain, small voice.

"He-hello, I’m Xue Sen, I’m here today with our King Studio."

Before Xue Sen could finish speaking, Xu Ke interrupted. This young man was so stuttering, but he didn’t mind that much. Surprisingly, King Studio actually managed to come.

"Alright, I didn’t expect you to really come. I’m the deputy general manager of Xiao Group’s branch. Where are you now? I’ll have an assistant bring you up."

Upon hearing Xu Ke’s voice, Xue Sen let out a sigh of relief, even bursting into a kind of exhilaration.

"Ahhh, you really are Deputy General Manager Xu. I actually thought I was fooled, you know. Your receptionist even said we were kids. If not for this secretary calling you, we might have left by now."

At this moment, Xue Sen glanced at his other two partners, who also felt disbelief. But upon hearing that Deputy General Manager Xu wanted to bring these few in, the secretary quickly brought them up without saying more.

The receptionist, meanwhile, panicked and quickly bowed to the three. She didn’t care about them after calling them "kids" earlier.

"I’m really sorry, I failed to recognize your importance, which is why I didn’t let you up. Don’t worry, I’ll perform my duties well from now on. Please, don’t say anything about this to Deputy General Manager Xu, or I’ll lose my job."

Seeing the receptionist bowing, Jin Yina, being a young girl, and yet to be tempered by society, felt a twinge of pity, and spoke to the other two: "Well, let’s forgive her then. Getting a job surely wasn’t easy."

Upon hearing Jin Yina’s words, the other two nodded, but the secretary shook her head, smiling at these three.

"You are ultimately too young. For the receptionist, it’s fortunate today she met you. Had it been others, she might have been fired directly. There was a day the receptionist actually rejected the old chairman, but fortunately, Hong Xuan handled it."

"But the same issue happened again today. The president must have taken note of them in his mind. Plus, he despises when receptionists judge by age or other traits, so I doubt your pleading will work."
