Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator

Chen Mo was seething with anger and had nowhere to vent it. Hearing this voice, he immediately seized the opportunity.

He slammed his hand on the table.

A loud bang startled everyone, and several employees even screamed.

"who!"

He spoke in a cold voice, his gaze sweeping across the entire room like lightning.

"Are you treating meeting discipline like a joke? Stand up!"

A middle-aged man stood up shakily.

He is the department manager of the third marketing department, surnamed Liu, in his forties, and has worked at the company for more than ten years; his hair is already quite gray.

"Mr. Chen... I'm sorry, I just..."

Manager Liu's face turned pale, he stammered, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Chen Mo didn't give him a chance to finish speaking, interrupting him with a cold laugh:

"Come on, what did you just say? Repeat it three times! Remember this lesson! If you're daydreaming in a meeting again, do this to me! I'll see how ashamed you are!"

Manager Liu opened his mouth, looked at Su Qing, his eyes full of pleading.

Su Qing glared at him, silently mouthing:

Speak!

Manager Liu gritted his teeth and could only force himself to speak, his voice trembling:

"Lijia Chain Beauty Hospital... announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

The meeting room fell into an instant silence so profound you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone was stunned.

Lijia?

The number one beauty institution in Jiangzhou.

We just signed a 70 million yuan deal with An's Group, and I heard that several more projects are going to be launched soon, easily bringing the total amount to over 100 million yuan.

How could this happen so suddenly?

Chen Mo's expression froze instantly.

His mind went blank for a moment, and he didn't react immediately.

In that instant, only one thought crossed his mind:

Are you an idiot?

You actually said it when I told you to?

He was about to start cursing when he saw Manager Liu continue, his voice trembling even more than before:

"Tong's Group... announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

If the news about Lijia was just surprising, then the news about the Tong family is truly a bombshell!

The meeting room erupted in chaos.

Everyone checked their phones to confirm the news.

"The Tong family?"

"Are you kidding me? The Tong family has been cooperating with us for years! At least five years, right?"

"If this is true, the company will lose at least several hundred million!"

"Not only that, the Tong family has such a wide range of interests and so many collaborative projects, and recently they've been gaining momentum!"

"It's all over, it's all over..."

"Didn't we resume cooperation before? This..."

......

Chen Mo sat in the head seat and felt as if someone had poured a bucket of ice water over his head, chilling him to the bone.

This is clearly a slap in the face for themselves!

Resignation, suspension of cooperation...

Who doesn't know the meaning behind this?

It's all aimed at Chen Mo!

He opened his mouth, as if to say something, but his throat felt blocked, and he couldn't utter a single word.

Manager Liu stood there, his face flushed red all the way to his neck and even his ears.

A grown man almost cried in front of dozens of people.

But he still gritted his teeth and continued speaking.

There was no other way; the boss made me repeat it three times!

"Lijia Chain Beauty Hospital announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

His voice trembled, but he persisted.

The conference room was completely silent, except for the hum of the air conditioner.

"Tong's Group... announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

Second time.

The veins on Chen Mo's neck were bulging, his temples were throbbing, and his fingers were gripping the armrests of the chair tightly.

"Lijia Chain Beauty Hospital announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

The third time.

"Tong's Group... announces the suspension of its cooperation with An's Group..."

I'm finally done talking.

Manager Liu kept his head down.

He wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

At that moment, only one thought remained in my mind:

Tired, destroy it.

In the conference room, everyone's eyes secretly glanced at Chen Mo.

Those gazes held sympathy, mockery, schadenfreude, and the excitement of watching a good show.

Chen Mo's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Just now, I said that the marketing department is the company's lifeline, and that we exceeded our targets.

The results of it?

The entire marketing department resigned, and several major clients also announced the suspension of cooperation.

That was a resounding slap in the face.

The boomerang hit him squarely.

He felt a tightness in his chest, as if something was blocking it, and he almost couldn't catch his breath.

call...

He took a deep breath, then another, trying to calm himself down.

Chen Mo waved his hand, signaling the "warrior" who had reported three times to sit down.

"Some minor mishaps have occurred at the company... which is unavoidable. Let's give a brief overview and get back to work as soon as possible."

After saying that, he took out his phone and started scrolling through the messages.

Su Qing reluctantly chaired the next meeting.

The marketing department reported some market figures, the finance department mentioned some reporting indicators, and the operations department briefly outlined the current situation...

Everyone was cautious, afraid of making things worse, and they all lowered their voices when reporting.

The meeting ended half an hour later.

Chen Mo was the first to stand up and quickly walked out of the conference room.

No one dared to follow him, for fear of incurring his bad luck.

He strode toward his office, but halfway there he suddenly remembered something and turned to speak to his secretary's desk.

"Xiao Zhou, could you please get me the materials from this morning? I..."

He froze halfway through his sentence.

The secretary's desk was empty.

The pretty young girl, Zhou Yu, is not at her post.

The table was spotless, the computer was off, and even the cups were gone. Only a potted succulent plant remained, sitting there all alone.

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, and then an unnamed rage could no longer be suppressed.

He kicked the office door hard.

boom!

A loud bang could be heard throughout the entire corridor.

"Unauthorized absence from work during working hours! Good! Good! Good!"

He turned around and saw several mid-level managers who had just come out.

He glanced around, found Manager Wang from the Human Resources Department, and spoke in a cold voice:

"Old Wang, Zhou Yu was late without reason. Half a month's salary is docked! Make her write a self-criticism! And come to me in person to explain!"

Manager Wang had only walked halfway when he heard these words, and his heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, it's coming at me!

He quickly jogged forward, approached Chen Mo, and whispered:

"Mr. Chen...his secretary...just resigned too..."

Chen Mo was stunned, and the expression on his face was extremely interesting.

On the other side, a group of people hurriedly fled, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire.

But the murmuring sound was still faint.

"You resigned?"

His voice changed tone, becoming sharp and shrill.

"When did this happen?"

Manager Wang wiped the sweat from his brow and said in a low voice:

"Just... just this morning. Zhou Yu submitted his resignation letter, saying... saying it was for personal reasons that he didn't want to continue. I haven't had a chance to tell you yet."

"Don't want to do it anymore?"

Chen Mo laughed in exasperation.

"She doesn't want to work here anymore? She was An Lan's secretary. An Lan is gone. What right does she have to quit? Who does she think she is?"

"Good riddance!"

Manager Wang opened his mouth, but didn't dare to say anything.
