"President Di, I truly know I was wrong!"
As Di Mingjue’s gaze swept over him, Manager Wu was so startled that he threw himself onto the floor.
It was just a document, why did the atmosphere suddenly turn so grim?
Jiang Ziyu’s eyes flickered over curiously.
"Explain," Di Mingjue commanded, tapping his fingers on the desk.
It felt as though his fingertips had landed on Di Mingjue’s heart. Manager Wu’s breathing became rapid and shallow.
Word by word, it tumbled out of his mouth. After a long while, all he heard was Di Ruihe’s name.
Could he have intervened?
Jiang Ziyu set down the coffee machine in her hand and stared at the other person with curiosity.
"Shen Lin, you explain," Di Mingjue ordered, turning his head.
Before they entered, Shen Lin had already clarified the entire situation. He recounted the process again in broad strokes.
"Impersonation?" Di Mingjue sneered. He glanced at Manager Wu. "Go inform Di Ruihe to come see me."
"Me?" Manager Wu asked fearfully.
If Di Ruihe found out he had come to report him, he would kill him.
Manager Wu desperately wanted to shake his head, but seeing Di Mingjue’s expression, his mind felt as if it were being held in place by a hand, unable to budge no matter how he tried to twist it.
Seeing his inaction, Di Mingjue’s tone rose. "You're not going?"
"I'm going!" Manager Wu turned and vanished in a flash.
Jiang Ziyu was still lost in thought, her gaze lingering on the desk in front of Di Mingjue.
"Go investigate and see if he's tampered with any other projects besides this contract," Di Mingjue instructed.
Just after Di Dong Sheng left, and now it was unsettled again so soon? Since they all had the audacity of a leopard, why should he continue to be a defenseless little white rabbit for them?
Di Mingjue’s gaze fixed darkly on the main door. At this moment, Jiang Ziyu finally understood the rumors about him.
...
"See me?" Di Ruihe asked Manager Wu with a smile. "It seems you've already told him."
Step by step, he approached Manager Wu, who was forced into a corner. He fearfully hugged his head and, with no backbone, squatted down. "I had no choice. Even if it wasn't signed by President Di, the other party would have recognized it."
If he truly wanted power, why didn't he challenge Di Mingjue? Why pick on a small manager like him?
Manager Wu dared not speak the rest of his thoughts, only filled with anger.
Di Ruihe saw the disdain in his eyes and pressed down on his shoulder with his palm. "Is it that you can't, or that you're biased towards him?"
Manager Wu looked up, but his gaze dropped in fear after a single glance. She bit her lip, and after much thought, said, "Please, don't make things difficult for me anymore. The company belongs to President Di, and only he can decide these matters. Why do you bother with such useless efforts?"
As Manager Wu spoke, feeling that he was doomed either way, he looked up at Di Ruihe’s menacing face.
Since things had already happened, there was no need to be afraid anymore. Even if Di Ruihe did nothing to him, Di Mingjue would not let it pass.
The manager straightened up, breaking free from Di Ruihe’s grasp.
Seeing his newfound backbone, Di Ruihe chuckled.
"You dare to retort after meeting him once?"
"You should go see President Di first. He's still waiting for you."
"Waiting?"
If he wanted to wait, let him wait!
Di Ruihe wasn't in a hurry to go. Instead, he returned to his desk and sat down. Since the matter had already been exposed to Di Mingjue, there was no need to pretend any longer.
After all, besides this contract, he had put in a lot of effort before.
On the other side, Shen Lin rushed into the president's office.
"President Di, something has happened!"
Di Mingjue frowned.
"It's not just one contract. The second young master has also met with many business partners. He unilaterally promised some of their demands under the name of Di Jue Group," Shen Lin reported breathlessly.
