SWNOVELS Chapter 18
Shengyuan Group
27th floor, CEO's office
Zhou Zheng greeted Maggie before retrieving the project information from her hands, then knocked on the CEO's door.
"Come in!"
Hearing the cold voice from coming from inside, Zhou Zheng straightened his back and pushed the door open. The man inside there was reading a document with his head lowered, not looking up even when Zhou Zheng entered.
"Mr. Fu, this is last month's report. Mr. Liu of the finance department says the budget for the external communications department is too high. Please make your decision," Zhou Zheng quickly reported before handing the documents over to Fu Chengyan.
Fu Chengyan's brow furrowed slightly as his fingers tapped his desk. "There's no need to report such trivial matters to me. Let them handle this on their own. Anything that's within a controllable range need not be reported to me," he said as glanced through the information before tossing the papers back to Zhou Zheng.
"Yes sir," Zhou Zheng sighed slightly before continuing. "Ms. Shi has gone to work today."
"OK," Fu Chengyan nodded. "Anything else?"
"Yes. Here is the information on Ms. Shi," Zhou Zheng said, remembering that Fu Chengyan had asked for every detail on Shi Nuan.
Back then, Zhou Zheng found it strange, wondering if it was because of the car accident that day. He wondered if his boss had fallen for someone. But when he saw how Fu Chengyan looked after Shi Nuan, Zhou Zheng realized that he may have been wrong.
Fu Chengyan took the information over and glanced at Zhou Zheng thoughtfully. Zhou Zheng immediately straightened his back upon realizing that he had actually spaced out in front of his boss. "I shall take my leave, Mr. Fu," he said.
"Wait," Fu Chengyan called out to Zhou Zheng and tapped the desk twice. Seeing Fu Chengyan's actions, Zhou Zheng knew the man had a task for him. "Is there something you want me to do, Mr. Fu?" "Reduce the number of orders given to Fucheng."
With that one sentence, Zhou Zheng knew that his boss was about to make a move.
After Zhou Zheng left, Fu Chengyan continued to look at the document in his hands for a long while before finally picking up the information on Shi Nuan that Zhou Zheng had given him. The information was extremely detailed. Almost everything that happened from Shi Nuan's birth till present had been recorded in the document.
Fu Chengyan briefly glanced through the document, but his dark and deep eyes suddenly turned cold when his gaze landed on a photograph of Shi Nuan and Fu Xicheng from three years ago. He lifted his head and took out the photograph.
The corner of his lips curled slightly as his slender fingers touched the face of the delicate-looking girl in the photo. He traced the girl's eyes.
But he instantly turned cold when he saw how happily the girl smiled. Fu Chengyan ripped the photograph in half, separating the two subjects. He threw the photo of Fu Xicheng away and placed Shi Nuan's picture back into the file.
He continued to go through Shi Nuan's information. According to the document, Shi Nuan didn't have a very good relationship with her family. She had moved out to live on her own a few years ago, mainly due to Shi Wei and Jiang Yu.
Despite Shi Nuan having a poor relationship with Shi Wei and Jiang Yu, her grandfather treated Shi Nuan very well, to the point of pampering her. Aside from the head of the family, no one else was kind to her. Fu Chengyan stroked his chin and closed the file. He then immediately rang Zhou Zheng up, saying, "I want Shi Wei's information. You have half an hour."
Zhou Zheng was in the midst of handling a project. Hearing Fu Chengyan's orders, his jaw fell to the floor. "H-half an hour?" He's kidding, right?
But before Zhou Zheng could even respond, Fu Chengyan had already hung up. Zhou Zheng was at the brink of a breakdown.
How would he get such information in just half an hour!? He hesitated for a moment before dialing a number. "Sir, can I borrow your assistant for half an hour?"
