The entire day, he felt as if his soul had been ripped from his body.
He was lethargic and drowsy, devoid of any vitality.
The assistant returned to his private office.
At this moment, he was all alone.
Secretary Wu, who had been following him, seeing that the assistant was beyond help, had already begun making plans to secure her own long-term future in the group.
"These people are simply bastards!"
The assistant cursed fiercely at this moment.
He was about to pick up the cup on his desk and smash it hard against the tiled floor beside him.
Just then, *dong dong*.
A clear knocking sound came from outside the door.
"Who is it?"
At a time like this, wasn't this just adding fuel to his already displeased mood?
The assistant said impatiently.
"It's me."
He recognized the voice as familiar.
He recognized the person as his confidant.
The same person who had recently watched impassively as Lü Feng and Lin Mei, that pair of scoundrels, swaggered away from him.
*Hoo-ha!*
The assistant's anger instantly reached an uncontrollable level.
"I'm not seeing anyone!"
These kinds of people, so disloyal.
He couldn't count on them to do anything.
At the same time, the assistant lay down on the sofa nearby.
However, the knocking outside the door did not cease.
"What are you doing? Knock again, and I'll call security."
Although he had clearly been neglected by Zhang Yun, he still had this basic right.
"Security!"
The assistant was about to reach for an emergency button installed on the sofa.
But at this moment.
The person knocking outside the door seemed to have heard the assistant's voice.
The knocking stopped, replaced by a low voice.
"Brother, this is an urgent matter."
"What urgent matter? Another day."
The assistant had no intention of listening to someone who had caused him to miss a golden opportunity.
"No!"
The person standing outside the door was very persistent.
Hearing the assistant's reply, the urgency in the person's voice grew stronger.
"Brother, this matter is of great importance."
The assistant didn't believe this.
"You still have the nerve to call me brother! Get lost."
On the rooftop, this person had repeatedly claimed that he was powerless against him.
Why waste words on such a person?
The assistant was about to press the button in his hand.
Just then, the noisy sounds outside the door completely disappeared.
Seeing this, the assistant breathed a sigh of relief.
All he wanted now was to get a good night's sleep.
But as soon as he closed his eyes.
His ears were assaulted by several extremely discordant sounds.
These sounds were very low, but the assistant's office was relatively quiet.
These sounds, which were originally as faint as insect whispers.
At this moment, they sounded like the tolling of bells.
These sounds came through the crack in the door.
The assistant had no intention of listening at first.
But he heard the first sound unintentionally and couldn't help but listen further.
Two people were standing outside the door, discussing in hushed tones.
His confidant was about to speak.
He was interrupted by another person, whose origin was unknown.
"Forget it, forget it. I see your brother doesn't intend to believe you!"
Hearing this, the assistant's confidant sighed deeply.
But he clearly was unwilling: "How can this be good."
The other person added, "There's no way around it. You were too exaggerated today!"
The assistant's confidant immediately lowered his head.
"I, I didn't think that far ahead. My brother treats me well, but I also have my temper with him, that's true. However, on matters of right and wrong, I still know what I'm doing."
However, before he could finish speaking.
He was immediately interrupted by the assistant's confidant standing beside him.
"What can be done? I think you should just mind your own business. Why bother with so much? If your brother doesn't want to listen, then so be it. Anyway, even if you warn him now, it won't be of any use. Even if it really helps him avoid disaster, he won't be grateful. If this matter doesn't happen, or if it differs from what you said, then you'll be finished."
The person in front of the confidant was constantly persuading him in a low voice.
"You should know, you are just a minor player under him, and your brother, after all, is a capable subordinate of Zhang Yun. Even if he falls, he will still have a strong foundation. You are no match for him."
These words were spoken with absolute certainty and were entirely accurate.
After speaking, the person stood there for a moment and then left.
Inside the room, the assistant heard a series of receding footsteps.
Hearing that his confidant was also about to turn and leave.
*Cough cough!*
He couldn't help but let out a few dry coughs from the depths of his throat, and at the same time, raised his voice: "Come in!"
The assistant had initially thought his confidant had come specifically to add insult to injury. But now it seemed.
His mind was too narrow.
The confidant standing outside the door was clearly very surprised.
After all, the assistant had been pleading for a long time, but the assistant had remained resolute.
Refusing to let him in.
What had changed now?
Before the assistant could figure anything out.
*Creak.*
With a light creaking sound from the door hinges, the door was abruptly opened by the assistant.
"Brother!"
Seeing that the assistant had opened the door himself, the confidant's emotions were momentarily indescribable.
He appeared utterly flattered.
"Hmm," the assistant maintained a feigned calm expression.
"What? What do you need me for? Once you're done, scram!"
The assistant deliberately acted as if he knew nothing.
"Brother, I was indeed a bit excessive today!"
Hearing this, the confidant couldn't help but apologize proactively.
"Excessive? I don't think so. Weren't you always dissatisfied with me?"
Although the assistant now understood the purpose of this person's visit from his confidant's scattered words.
But after all, he was the superior of the person in front of him.
Even though the assistant wished he could immediately ask the person in front of him what was on his mind.
But for now, he deliberately put on a show of authority.
The confidant clearly understood that he was no match for the assistant alone.
"This, this!"
The confidant's words instantly became disorganized.
Seeing this, the assistant, while outwardly impassive, was inwardly overjoyed.
It was clear that this confidant had come to his senses.
Since that was the case, he decided to grant him some face.
"Alright, I, after so many years of following Director Ge, am not such a petty person. Let's forget about this matter. However, I hope it doesn't happen again in the future."
"Yes!"
The assistant provided a way out for the confidant.
The confidant naturally took the opportunity to back down.
At this point.
The assistant finally got to the main point: "Speak, what important matter do you have for me?"
How could the confidant dare not speak when the assistant asked?
The confidant glanced behind him, then turned to close the door, and then led the assistant to a very private corner on the opposite side of the office.
He spoke mysteriously: "Brother, something big has happened. Zhang Yun is currently selecting people to monitor you!"
Hearing this, the assistant's nerves instantly tensed.
If Zhang Yun was already suspicious of him, then this person would definitely act repeatedly.
He just hadn't expected it to come so quickly.
