not a decent stand-in

When Xiang Yindong came out of the bathroom, Zuo Tong was smoking a cigarette by the railing on the second floor.

Behind him were rolling hills in the night, and the night breeze was blowing his soft hair.

Not far away, the "Go Left" sign swayed gently in the evening wind.

It is undeniable that some time ago, Xiang Yindong once had doubts about his friendship with Zuo Tong.

Those entanglements and unhappiness are not so much an inability to accept that Zuo Tong likes him, but an inability to accept the change in their relationship.

In essence, they are actually the same kind of people, and they reject from the bottom of their hearts to maintain a long-term relationship.

So they all know that some things are untouchable.

That night, the two lay on the roof looking at the stars, drinking beer, and chatting about their childhood.

Zuo Tong rested his head on Xiang Yindong's lap, but he couldn't feel any ambiguity.

It seems that their intimacy should be taken for granted.

At that moment, Xiang Yindong forgives himself.

He knew that no matter what happened in the future, he would never doubt this friendship again.

After that day, he finally completely read the article about being "kissed" by his good brother.

What happened yesterday is like death yesterday, who can say clearly what will happen in the future...

On Monday morning, when the leaders of Bureau A visited the company for investigation, something went wrong.

Lin Jincheng, who was originally in charge of the reception, did not arrive for some reason.

After repeated contact with no results, in order not to waste the other party's time, Xiang Yindong had to change people temporarily and let Xiang Huai'en participate in the reception.

This time, Xiang Huai'en made enough preparations, not only coaxing the other party's leaders to praise him, but also making many middle-level managers who were criticized for this matter feel dissatisfied with Lin Jincheng's dereliction of duty this time.

But Xiang Yindong knew very well in his heart that such a coincidence would not happen in the world.

After seeing off the leader of Bureau A, Xiang Huai'en was so proud of himself that he came to the office to appreciate his performance.

The smile on Xiang Yindong's face didn't reach his eyes: "This is what I should do, Boss Xiang is being polite!"

Xiang Huai'en laughed: "During this time, I think you are very concerned about the company's affairs, but you still have a bit of business talent..."

"Thank you, Boss Xiang, for the compliment!"

"As long as you are obedient, I can consider it in the future and continue to keep you by my side..."

Xiang Yindong complimented: "Of course I am willing to continue to serve Boss Xiang!"

Xiang Huai'en looked a little smug, and snorted softly: "I want to see, Lin Jincheng is an outsider, why should he fight with me?"

It's no secret between the company and the Xiang family that Xiang Huai'en and Lin Jincheng are at odds.

And what made him worry about it was nothing more than the old man's partiality.

Lin Jincheng is the vice president of the company, with real power and a lot of resources, but his own son is just a nominal director and is not taken seriously at all.

The two had their own minds and were "celebrating" their victory when Secretary Ada knocked on the door of the office in a panic.

"Sorry, Mr. Xiang, Vice President Lin..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Jincheng had already broken into the office.

He glanced at Xiang Huai'en, and snorted very impolitely: "It seems that I came at a really bad time!"

Xiang Yindong signaled Ada to close the door, stepped forward and comforted him: "Uncle Lin, why are you so angry? What's the matter, sit down and talk slowly!"

Lin Jincheng's face was ugly, he pointed at Xiang Huai'en, and said angrily: "Yindong, do you know what this man has done?"

Xiang Yindong showed a bewildered face: "Uncle Lin, where do you start with this?"

"This person actually asked a gangster to touch my car, and even robbed me of the phone to prevent me from calling the police, and trapped me in the suburbs for more than two hours. Otherwise, how could I be late?"

"The person surnamed Lin has no proof, so don't spit blood!"

Xiang Huai'en stood up from the sofa with a bang and confronted Lin Jincheng.

"I spitting blood? You know what you have done, you know best!" Lin Jincheng said coldly, "Don't think I don't know, you are just coveting the A project! But you also have to see if you have That ability! If you rashly contact a customer, once the other party questions our ability, what responsibility will you take?"

"Be respectful in what you say!" Xiang Huai'en was not to be outdone, and sneered, "Who made the customer wait all morning? I still have to ask, what are you responsible for?"

"You don't need to worry about this, I am the person in charge of this project!"

"The person in charge? Hmph, I want to eat it up and wipe it out. The property of the Xiang family will not fall into the hands of outsiders so easily!"

"You... are simply unreasonable!"

Lin Jincheng was poked in the foot, and suddenly grabbed Xiang Huai'en by the collar.

The identity of the door-to-door son-in-law has always been a taboo in his heart, and now he can't bear to be ridiculed by Xiang Huai'en.

Seeing two people who are over half a hundred years old, they are about to fight in the office.

Xiang Yindong couldn't help but get black lines on his face, and quickly started to persuade the fight.

"Two, two, stay calm!"

He pulled Lin Jincheng aside, tried his best to stabilize his emotions, and winked at Xiang Huai'en again.

Although Xiang Huai'en looked unhappy, he also knew that it would not do him any good to make trouble in the company.

So, he straightened the clothes that were ripped apart by the other party, and left a sentence: "The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry! I don't know what to say!" Then he turned and left the office.

After Xiang Huai'en left, Xiang Yindong breathed a sigh of relief, but Lin Jincheng pointed at him again: "Yindong, you really let me down!"

Xiang Yindong had no choice but to continue pretending to be innocent: "Uncle Lin, I really don't know what happened..."

"No matter what happens, you can't let Xiang Huai'en get involved in the project of Bureau A! Do you know how much effort it took me to get the bidding qualification?"

"Of course I know this. During this time, you have really worked hard!"

"Yindong, he did put in a lot of effort for you to be able to go home this time, but you can't disregard public and private interests!"

Xiang Yindong was a little embarrassed. Recently, he had a close relationship with Xiang Huai'en, and Lin Jincheng was obviously aware of it.

"Uncle Lin is worrying too much, no matter what, I won't mess with Zhenghai..."

"Isn't this nonsense?"

Lin Jincheng was obviously still angry, so Xiang Yindong had no choice but to explain: "Actually, my uncle approached me some time ago and said that he has some resources that he can use. Not only can he build a good relationship with the leaders of Bureau A, but he can also make our bidding documents more competitive. Competitive. You know, I was skeptical, so I asked him to come over today to learn more about the project... Who knew, you would have such a big problem..."

"What happened in the morning is obviously him..."

"Uncle Lin!" Xiang Yindong interrupted him, "It's better not to speculate about the car accident without evidence, otherwise it will be of no benefit to everyone..."

Lin Jincheng's face darkened when he heard this, but he didn't say anything to refute.

"I know that you value Bureau A project very much, but if you can't win this bid in the end, won't all your efforts in the early stage be in vain?"

Lin Jincheng sighed: "I'm afraid that he has no good intentions!"

He has always been sophisticated and prudent in dealing with things, but today he lost his demeanor, obviously because he was dizzy with Xiang Huaien's anger.

Xiang Yindong patted him on the shoulder: "Uncle Lin, don't worry, I will handle this matter carefully. You have worked hard during this time, why don't you go home and rest for a few days, and spend time with aunt?"

As soon as he said this, he naturally refused to continue discussing this topic.

Lin Jincheng shook his head angrily: "Where is the time..."

Xiang Yindong smiled and said, "How is Auntie recently?"

"Fortunately, she's been talking about you all the time, so go and have a look at your house when you have time!"

"That's exactly what I mean, how about just this weekend?"

Lin Jincheng's complexion improved a lot: "That's just right, Shanshan said that she will bring her boyfriend over this weekend, so you should come and have a meal too!"

Xiang Yindong's eyes lit up, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Shanshan, this little girl also has a boyfriend?"

"What little girl, people in their twenties are not used to you!" Lin Jincheng was slightly dissatisfied.

Xiang Yindong couldn't help smiling, Lin Shanshan was indeed a little innocent, so he should also help to check on this cousin who suddenly appeared.

Soon, the public quarrel between Xiang Huai'en and Lin Jincheng spread throughout the company.

Many high-level executives and shareholders are assessing the situation and began to choose sides. The atmosphere in the company was a little tense for a while.

The old man made a special call to tell Xiang Yindong to deal with it properly and not let outsiders take advantage of it and make a fuss about it.

Xiang Yindong quickly comforted him, saying that he knew how to measure.

In the next few days, Xiang Huai'en did not know what method he used, but he got on the line with the top management of Bureau A.

The other party even offered to ask him to join the project.

Xiang Huai'en was even more reckless, and joined several directors to propose a proposal, hoping that Lin Jincheng would take responsibility and withdraw from the Bureau A project.

Lin Jincheng suffered from being dumb, and could only watch things continue to develop in a direction that was not good for him.

In the CEO's office, Xiang Yindong sat on the executive chair, twirling the signature pen in his hand, and asked, "What do you think of this incident?"

Alex on the opposite side smiled and said, "I thought, you called me over because you had already thought of a countermeasure!"

Xiang Yindong raised his eyebrows: "I think about a good countermeasure, so you don't have to use your brain?"

Alex disagrees: "Ok, who asked me to take your salary..."

He analyzed, "The reason why Xiang Huai'en dares to challenge Vice President Lin publicly is because many directors are interested in Sophia's future development momentum...Once Sophia's arrogance is suppressed, he will naturally not dare to be so radical again .So, if you want to restrain him, you must first restrain Sophia..."

"Oh?" Xiang Yindong nodded, "Go on..."

"Sophia is shrewd and has a clear mind. There is nothing to catch, but there is one person who is different..."

Seeing his knowing expression, Alex couldn't help sighing, "Why do I think you're testing me on purpose? If I think differently from you, will you deduct my salary?"

Xiang Yindong held a pen in his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "In your eyes, am I such a harsh boss?"

"You're not harsh, you're... scary!"

Xiang Yindong shrugged his shoulders: "Okay, just treat it as if you are praising me! You should do some investigation in private to see if you can find the handle on that person. Remember, there must be real evidence!"

"I seem to have heard the sound of sharpening a knife to pigs and sheep!"

"Wrong, where there are pigs and sheep, they are all money wolves!"
