Chapter 1522 Mother is more valuable than son
There is a saying that goes, "It is better to miss someone than to meet him, and it is better not to meet someone than to miss him." Wu Shanshan was in such a complicated state of mind at this moment.

Originally, Wu Shanshan missed her family very much, but she had already anticipated her family's ruthlessness, and after actually seeing it, she still found it hard to accept.

As soon as Wu Shanshan saw Su Ning, she couldn't help crying, "Wow... I... I really am such a failure."

"Are you disappointed after seeing your family?" Suning naturally understood Wu Shanshan's sadness.

Wu Shanshan couldn't help but say with regret, "Well! If I had known, I wouldn't have gone back to see them."

However, Su Ning looked at Wu Shanshan meaningfully and reminded her, "Shanshan, this is how the world is. I can give you whatever you want. Since you have chosen to be with me, don't have any random thoughts in the future."

"Professor, don't worry! I will be devoted to you forever." Wu Shanshan naturally understood that she could only rely on Suning now.

"Well, since you're not in a good mood, I'll give you a few days off. Go to Hong Kong Island and relax for a few days."

"No! Professor, I still want to give birth to a baby monkey for you."

"Haha, that's fine! Let's work overtime tonight and try to unlock a few more new moves."

"Ah."

With Suning's unremitting efforts day and night, Wu Shanshan finally became pregnant, which naturally made Wu Shanshan extremely surprised.

You know, the saying "A mother's status is determined by her son" is not a joke. It has been a true saying in all dynasties. That's why Wu Shanshan has always wanted a child to support her, so that Suning won't kick him away one day.

However, after Wu Shanshan became pregnant, the secretary position for Su Ning was vacant again, so the human resources department began to look for a new secretary for Su Ning.

Wang Mingyuan, deputy director of the Human Resources Department, came to Su Ning with three personnel files and said, "Professor, these are the three secretarial candidates our Human Resources Department has selected for you."

Su Ning casually glanced through the personnel files and nodded, asking, "Well, they all look very good. Which one does your HR department prefer?"

"Professor, the HR department prefers Chen Lei. She graduated from the Foreign Languages Department of Tongji University. Although she only has a bachelor's degree, she has experience working at the No. 27 Foreign Trade Corporation. Both her image and abilities are first-rate."

"Chen Lei? A native of Shanghai?" Su Ning's heart moved and he picked up the document again to read it.

The deputy director of the HR department, thinking of the benefits that had already fallen into his pocket, pushed Chen Lei again, "Yes! This is also the reason why our HR department favors her."

"Pass it!" But Suning was extremely resolute and passed it directly.

"Huh? Okay, Professor!" Wang Mingyuan, Deputy Director of HR, responded somewhat unnaturally.

"Zhang Siyu from Peking University's Literature Department is quite good. I'll arrange for her to come directly to my office for an interview."

"Okay! Professor, do you want to call the other one for the interview as well?"

"No need! Just Zhang Siyu. If she doesn't pass the interview, your HR department can continue to select."

"Yes! Professor."

In fact, Chen Lei is quite good. She is first-class in height and appearance, and her abilities are also quite good. It's a pity that Suning remembered that she had a blind date with Zhuang Tunan.

The thought that he had snatched away Zhuang Tunan's official partner in the original drama in advance had already made many stubborn people and moralists jump up and down. If he continued to have an unclear relationship with Chen Lei, it would be really troublesome.

Sometimes Suning also feels very strange. Some people always like to quibble with words and get entangled in trivial details. They can't even tolerate the name of a small supporting role. If such people were in ancient times, they would definitely be conservative and pedantic.

Soon, the deputy director of HR brought Zhang Siyu to Suning's office. "Hello, Professor Zhuang! I'm Zhang Siyu."

"Zhang Siyu, I see from your information that you just graduated from college?" At this time, Suning started his interview directly.

"Yes! The Department of Literature at Peking University."

"Why haven't you considered pursuing graduate studies?"

"Professor Zhuang, my family's situation is quite difficult. It's great that I can finish my undergraduate studies, so I need to start working and earn money as soon as possible."

"Zhang Siyu, you've already spent four years of college in Beijing, so you're relatively familiar with it. Why did you choose to come to Shanghai to look for a job?"

"Because I feel that the former Soviet Union is not as well developed as Shanghai. I feel that Shanghai is the real financial center."

"Well, one last question. If you had the opportunity to immigrate abroad now, what would you choose?"

"Professor Zhuang, I have never thought about immigrating abroad because I can't leave my parents and relatives."

After the interview, Suning was very satisfied and decided to keep this Shandong girl as his secretary. "Very good! I am very satisfied with you, a Shandong girl. The secretary position is yours."

"Professor Zhuang, thank you so much. I will work hard." As expected, Zhang Siyu was very happy to pass the interview. After all, the research center nowadays is a real large institution.

"Okay! The research center will provide you with a single dormitory and a three-month probationary period. Your salary will be halved to 1,000 yuan during the probationary period. In addition, you will be on call 24 hours a day."

"Yes! Professor."

"Well, get out! Find former secretary Susan to take over."

"Yes! Professor."

At this time, Susan was not in the "Center for Research on the Mysteries of the Universe", but was sitting in a cafe with the Queen Li Jia. This was the first time that the two of them sat down calmly.

Li Jia and Susan looked at each other like fighting cocks, neither of them willing to speak for the first time, as if speaking first would make them lose their energy.

In the end, it was Li Jia, the queen, who broke the deadlock first, but she did not feel discouraged at all. "Susan, I heard that you are pregnant. Congratulations."

"Boss lady, you should know who the father of the child is. Aren't you angry?" However, Wu Shanshan didn't like Li Jia's attitude. It seemed as if she didn't take her seriously at all.

As expected, Li Jia looked at Wu Shanshan calmly and said, "You already call me the boss lady, what else do I need to mind?"

"Aren't you afraid that I and the baby in your belly will take away everything from you?"

"What's mine is mine after all, no one can take it away! He really loves me and Su Hao, so Su Hao and I have great confidence in him."

"Boss lady, sometimes I really envy you. Such a good man actually fell into your hands."

"Susan, you are wrong! He has never belonged to anyone, and no woman can truly possess him."

"why?"

Li Jia looked at Wu Shanshan with amusement and said, "Susan, it seems you don't know him very well?"

"..." Wu Shanshan felt even more unhappy at this moment, not understanding where Li Jia's sense of superiority came from. "You don't need to know too much details, just remember to never disobey him. He will give you whatever you want."

"Boss lady, what I need is marriage with him. Do you think he can satisfy me?"

"No! You don't need it at all! Otherwise, you wouldn't have stayed with him in the first place. A wild night cat will never yield, and the only thing that can be tamed is a pet cat."

"..."

"Susan, don't be upset, this is our reality."

Wu Shanshan, who finally figured it out, suddenly sighed and said, "Thank you! Thank you for telling me so much. It really made me think a lot more clearly. I won't be entangled in those trivial details anymore."

"My brother often tells me that you should never be indecisive. Only by sticking to one path can you achieve success." Li Jia looked at Wu Shanshan in front of him meaningfully and reminded her.

"..."

This meeting between the two women was very meaningful. They directly talked about the knots deep in their hearts and no longer bothered about each other's existence.

You have to know that some things are not under their control. They are just appendages of Suning, and it is absolutely impossible for them to reverse Tiangang's control over Suning.

Wu Shanshan quickly resolved her worries and handed over the job to her replacement Zhang Siyu. She also informed Zhang Siyu of Suning's personal preferences and requirements. She was not sad because of Zhang Siyu's younger and prettier appearance, because she had already achieved success and could sit back and relax as long as she had the baby in her belly.

Of course, even if there is no Zhang Siyu, there will be another Wang Siyu or Lin Siyu. After all, there will never be a lack of women around Suning. All they can do now is to obey obediently.

The busy Su Ning suddenly asked Wu Shanshan, "Shanshan, did you go to see Li Jia today?"

"Ah? Professor, I..." Sure enough, Su Ning's questioning made Wu Shanshan a little flustered.

"No need to explain! You just need to know that I don't like infighting in the harem."

"Yes! Professor, I know what to do, and I will definitely not let you down."

"Remember to take good care of the baby!"

"okay, I get it."

……

Suning doesn't care much about secretary matters. After all, with his current status, there are many things that don't require him to worry too much.

So after confirming that Zhang Siyu would be his secretary, Suning no longer cared about this matter. As for Chen Lei, who was directly rejected by him, he did not take her to heart. Of course, he did not think that such a realistic local girl could be favored by Zhuang Tunan.

However, something that Suning could never have expected happened. Chen Lei, who was rejected, had an unusual appraisal and was waiting at the door of the research center building, unwilling to accept defeat.

At this moment, Chen Lei actually blocked Su Ning's way and asked, "Professor Zhuang, may I bother you for a moment?"

"Are you Chen Lei?" Suning recognized the other person's identity and signaled to the security guard beside him not to be nervous.

Chen Lei looked at Su Ning in front of her with unusual stubbornness and introduced herself, saying, "Yes! Hello, Professor Zhuang! I am today's interviewer, Chen Lei."

"What's up?"

"Professor Zhuang, I want to know why I failed the application?"

Su Ning suddenly realized that there must be something fishy going on here. "Why are you so sure you'll be hired?"

"The deputy director of your research center initially promised me this, and I even gave him a bribe of 20,000 yuan for it." Sure enough, Chen Lei directly revealed a shocking inside information.

Su Ning suppressed his anger and looked at Chen Lei in front of him and asked, "Can you provide concrete evidence?"

"Of course! I have the recording of the conversation with the Deputy Director, and it was your Deputy Director who took the initiative to bring it up."

At this moment, Su Ning suddenly turned to look at Wu Shanshan beside him and said, "Susan, take Chen Lei to the internal review team. We must get to the bottom of this matter."

"Yes! Miss Chen, please follow me." Susan said to Chen Lei in front of her with a playful look on her face.

However, Chen Lei still had the wild idea of joining the research center. "Professor Zhuang, I don't want to get the 20,000 yuan back. I just want to join the research center smoothly."

"Ms. Chen, I'm sorry! Not only do you not meet our hiring standards from the start, but the mere act of bribery is already illegal. Therefore, your joining our 'Universe Mysteries Research Center' is simply out of the question."

"Professor Zhuang, your son Zhuang Tunan and I were college classmates. Could you please hire me for Zhuang Tunan's sake?"

"Ms. Chen, you are also a top student with higher education. Don't you think it's ridiculous to say such things?"

"I……"

"Alright! Ms. Chen, what I can promise you now is that we'll investigate this matter thoroughly and confirm that it was the Deputy Director of HR who actively solicited a bribe from you. Our research center will definitely give you justice."

"..."

Suning really didn't expect that there would be corruption in his kingdom. You know, every important department is controlled by its own AI robots, and only the real natives and top talents will be promoted and used.

However, I didn't expect that where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes. Even though the development space has been forcibly suppressed by Suning, such a strange thing can still happen.

Wu Shanshan quickly informed Su Ning of the investigation results. "Professor, the matter has been thoroughly investigated. Deputy HR Director Wang Mingyuan did solicit bribes."

"This Wang guy seems to be a Harvard University graduate, right?"

"Yes! I graduated from Harvard University with a degree in business administration."

"How dare he ask for a bribe from Chen Lei?"

"Wang Mingyuan is a Shanghai native. Investigations have revealed that Wang Mingyuan and Chen Lei's mother were acquaintances. It was Chen Lei's mother who initially approached Wang Mingyuan. We certainly didn't expect Wang Mingyuan to actively solicit a bribe, and Chen Lei had even recorded the conversation in advance."

"Susan, do you feel bad?"

"Huh? Indeed! After all, Wang Mingyuan is also a key trainee in our research center."

"Hmph! Such a black sheep must not be tolerated. Naturally, there is nothing to regret. Directly fire Wang Mingyuan. In addition, issue a notice to the entire group. Employees who voluntarily report inappropriate behavior to the review team can choose to let bygones be bygones. If they are found guilty after the review, they will be directly fired."

"Yes! Professor."
