Chapter 454 Removal from Office and Appointment
That evening, Chen Xiao took Xiang Jun and Xu Jia to dinner at the Junxiao Lakeside Hotel, and then the two returned to Bihu Shuangxi.
When they arrived home, Xiangjun put her carry-on suitcase aside, and before she could even straighten her back, Chen Xiao picked her up in his arms.
"Ah, Chen Xiao—"
"I'll take you to take a bath."
She gasped softly, her arms instinctively wrapping around his neck. The bathroom door was flung open by his shoulder, and a wave of steaming heat instantly enveloped them both.
The overhead light refracted a hazy light through the frosted glass, water droplets meandered into streams on the tiles, and steam clung to the mirror, blurring the figures of the two people into swaying silhouettes.
On the soft, large bed in the bedroom, Chen Xiao held Xiang Jun, who was covered in fragrant sweat, and whispered in her ear, "Are you alright?"
Zhao Xiangjun hummed in response and nestled her head into his arms, seemingly protesting the large hand he had placed on her bottom.
I understand what she means; it means giving in to every demand. And yes, every time she's put on a brave face, it's just to avoid disappointing herself.
Chen Xiao's fingertips slid from Zhao Xiangjun's sweat-dampened back to her waist, leaving reddish marks in the moonlight. The silk sheets were already crumpled, reflecting the flickering light and shadow on the ceiling—much like the sound of her out-of-control breathing.
"Xiangjun, let's have a child." He whispered, biting her earlobe. His voice was hoarse with affection, but it was more serious than ever before.
Zhao Xiangjun's pupils contracted sharply, and her fingernails dug deeply into his shoulder blade.
Her voice was shy yet firm: "Okay!"
Chen Xiao suddenly rolled over and pressed her into the down pillow, "Then what are we waiting for?"
As she tilted her head back and gently bit his Adam's apple, beads of sweat still clung to her eyelashes. With a rare, womanly tenderness, she said, "I want to have a daughter, a beautiful daughter. I want to spoil her rotten and never let her suffer a single hardship."
The palm that was originally around her waist suddenly tightened, the knuckles turning white from the force, as if to crush all the suffering she had endured in his palm.
A mixture of tenderness and desire welled up in his eyes. "Okay." His voice was hoarse and out of tune. Suddenly, he lifted the back of her head and kissed her deeply. "I'll give birth to ten of you. I'll build you and the baby a palace..." The last syllable disappeared into their intertwined breaths, as if this would imprint the promise he had spoken into his very bones.
The next morning, Chen Xiao's biological clock woke him up on time.
Xiangjun has already prepared breakfast and has suggested several times that they could hire a housekeeper, or that the two of them could go to Xiangshan Linyu to stay, where there are housekeepers and various nursing teams available.
But Zhao Xiangjun seemed to enjoy cooking for him herself, and the two of them were immersed in this world of two, so going to Xiangshan Linyu felt uncomfortable.
"Chen Xiao—"
He looked up while he was eating breakfast. "What's wrong, honey?"
"Take off your watch."
He was still wearing the Omega Seamaster watch that I had given him. If I didn't replace it for him, he would probably wear it for the rest of his life.
"what happened?"
Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, he was into sex, and since she asked, he went along with it.
I took off my Omega Seamaster watch and looked at him.
"This watch is no longer befitting your current status."
She smiled faintly, "Xiangjun, our wealth today doesn't need these external things to adorn us. Even if I were wearing a children's watch, who would dare to look down on us?"
"Hmph, I'll buy you a kids' watch next time—"
Seemingly recalling that scene, she couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Kids' watches even have GPS tracking capabilities."
She turned and took out a deep blue velvet watch box from her crocodile handbag. The Patek Philippe Nautilus, fully diamond-encrusted, exploded with starlight under the light.
He reached out his hand, enjoying Xiangjun's gentle touch, and let her take the nautilus shell into his hand.
A system notification sounded in my mind:
[Ding~ Detected that Zhao Xiangjun spent 4150 million RMB on the host. A reward of 511.28 billion RMB has been allocated to the Dedication and Blessing Fund for the opposite sex. After the reward, the Dedication and Blessing Fund balance is 554 billion RMB.]
Good heavens, she helped him invest 20 billion in Jiexun Sports, and in the blink of an eye, she made back 554 billion.
That's ruthless! This comes much faster than my own merit bonus. It's fair to say that Junxiao Group's rapid development today is entirely due to the dedication bonus fund that Xiangjun generated.
If Junxiao Group relied solely on its own good fortune and bonuses, its current acquisition-driven development model would not be sustainable.

The back seat of a Rolls-Royce Phantom
Han Xue was scrolling through messages on her phone, while Gao Yue sat next to her.
During this round of negotiations, Junxiao Hotel Management Group has secured another victory. Based on the current progress of the negotiations, by the end of this month, Junxiao Hotel Group will own more than 10 six-star hotels, a development speed that is faster than a rocket.
The message was sent by Chen Xiao. After two days of investigation, the first batch of Junxiao Supermarket hypermarkets will be selected from the three stores of Jiangzhou Junxiao City and Junxiao Plaza, as well as the basement of Tianning Junwu Plaza, and will be completely transformed into Junxiao Supermarket hypermarkets.
The reason for choosing these companies is that their current contracts with supermarkets and hypermarkets have expired, and they can choose not to renew them.
For those stores that haven't reached their expiration date, forcibly entering them would constitute a breach of contract. Paying compensation is a minor issue; the main concern is the potential impact on the company's reputation. Furthermore, Junxiao Supermarket is just starting out and doesn't plan to expand so rapidly. Instead, it aims to establish a few benchmark stores first, and then seek further expansion once the process is streamlined.
These projects are all wholly owned by Junxiao Group, so they can't escape responsibility anyway.
Junwu Plaza? Han Xue's lips curled up slightly.
I met Mr. Gao and the boss on that project, and my family's economic situation also started to improve there.
Was Junwu Square my lucky place? From there, my life began to change dramatically.
"Han Xue, are you missing your boss?"
Yeah ~
Hearing Mr. Gao's joke, Han Xue's usually cold and aloof face instantly flushed red. She seemed to realize her relationship with her boss.
"What's there to be embarrassed about? We're not just superiors and subordinates in the workplace, we're more like sisters, no, from now on we'll be sisters."
Han Xue naturally understood what she meant. Having observed her for so long, she knew her boss had many women. From her observations, there was General Manager Xu Wu, Lin Ya, and that Korean woman, Lee Ji-eun, and oh yes, Meng Ziyi. Zhang Ziqian might not have been officially promoted yet, but that was only a matter of time.
These are all things she knows, and there are definitely many things she doesn't know. However, given the boss's power, he probably couldn't satisfy himself without so many women.
Furthermore, with such a vast wealth empire, he is bound to have many descendants in the future, which is certainly not something that one or two women could accomplish.
Thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel fortunate that I was one of his women, and even more so, that he favored me so much. This was evident from the fact that he entrusted me with the responsibility of his fifth major business entity, which showed that he had absolute trust in me.
Of course, not being responsible for one of the five major business entities does not mean that one is not favored by the boss; everyone has different strengths.
I heard that Zhao Xiangjun, that mistress, doesn't take responsibility for anything, but according to General Manager Gao, even General Manager Xu's position in the boss's heart is far inferior to hers. Perhaps all of them combined couldn't compare to her. They say she's the boss's destiny.
These thoughts came to mind in an instant, and of course, he didn't forget to reply to Gao Yue: "President Gao, you are my benefactor."
lol~
Gao Yue laughed, "Then I dare not compete with the boss for credit. Don't call me President Gao anymore, just call me Sister Yue. The group's appointment letter will be issued soon, and you will soon be the chairman and general manager of Junxiao Retail Business Unit. You are much better than I was back then. When I started as CEO, I was still in the probationary period."
From this perspective, it's clear that the boss favors certain people when hiring.
At that time, she wasn't Chen Xiao's woman yet. As an important person in the core department of the group, she definitely needed to be put on probation. Besides, at that time, not only Chen Xiao, but even Xu Wu didn't know much about Gao Yue's work ability.
Han Xue is different. Although she has only been with Junxiao Hotel Management Group for a short time, her work ability has been unanimously recognized by everyone from top to bottom. Moreover, she is now Chen Xiao's woman. With such a large family business, she should take on a part of it, so there is no probationary period.
She even secretly harbored the idea that the future Junxiao Group, the core business segment of the Chen family, might become the head of the family many years from now, and its basic form could already be seen.
Xu Wu is now in control of the entire Junxiao Group, and that will definitely not change. As the woman Chen Xiao trusts most besides Zhao Xiangjun, and also the only woman who owns shares in the Junxiao Group, her position is unshakeable.
As for myself, how big Junxiao Hotel Management Group can grow in the future depends on my own abilities. This is all the Chen family's business, and in the future, it will most likely be inherited by my descendants. Of course, the premise is that the descendants are not too useless. If they can't be helped, then there's nothing I can do.
So now I'm working so hard not only for Chen Xiao and Junxiao Group, but also for my future generations.
As for Junxiao Capital, it depends on Xu Wu's arrangements. She hasn't recruited anyone from outside yet, which may mean she wants to promote and train someone from her own circle. After all, the scale of funds managed by this business is too large, and eventually someone from her own circle will have to manage it. Until a suitable person is found, Xu Wu will take on the role herself.
As for Junxiao Commercial Management, Gao Yue speculated that Xu Jun was currently working diligently, like a devoted servant, and the boss certainly wouldn't treat him unfairly. But after his retirement, Junxiao Commercial Management would most likely be taken over by either Zhao Hui or Lin Ya. One was a true "brother-in-law of the emperor," and the other was also his woman; how they would be divided was still uncertain. However, things were easier to handle with Junxiao Commercial Management. In the future, this business entity would have three sub-brands, and once they all grew large, each sub-brand would be worth hundreds of billions, providing plenty of positions.
Han Xue is simple; the higher her future achievements, the higher the starting point for her future offspring. I'm afraid this girl hasn't realized this yet.
Whether I know it or not doesn't matter. Even if it weren't for my offspring, I would still work hard for my boss.
Han Xue was teased and didn't know how to respond. Then Gao Yue said, "Xiao Xue, as a sister, let me have a few words of heart-to-heart talk with you."
Hearing her serious tone, Han Xue quickly adjusted her mindset and listened respectfully as if she were being assigned work. She wanted to express that no matter what, Sister Yue was her benefactor and her older sister.
“Xiaoxue, we were all born into ordinary or rural families. When it comes to enduring hardship, none of us are afraid. But in the future, we may not even be able to endure hardship, and there is a field that is very unfamiliar to us, one that we have never been exposed to before.”
Han Xue was a little confused and didn't know what she was referring to.
"The handling of internal relationships within a wealthy family is a complex matter. With such a large business empire, the boss will undoubtedly have a large harem in the future. It's hard to say how to reconcile various relationships, how to get along with each other, how to resolve conflicts, or even whether there will be any struggles for interests. Therefore, I am also grateful to have you as my good younger sister. In the future, we can help each other out."
Han Xue was startled and suddenly thought of "Empresses in the Palace".
"Really? I've known the boss for a long time and I've gotten to know a lot of the older women there. They're all very nice people."
Gao Yue nodded in agreement. "The ones you've met are all good, but who can guarantee that he won't have new women in the future, and whether the new ones will be good or not? There's another situation: he's still unmarried. At this time, many people have different thoughts. Once his marital status is confirmed, many things may change, and not everyone can adjust their mindset well."
Han Xue understood Gao Yue's meaning: these people were all Chen Xiao's women, and they all revolved around him.
But apart from Chen Xiao, aren't there comparisons and conflicts of interest among these women?
The most fiercely contested position here is that of the "Empress," because her descendants will undoubtedly be the core members of the Chen family and the legal heirs.
She shook her head. She had never thought about these things. Even if she didn't get anything in the future, what she had now was already beyond what ordinary people could compare to.
Gao Yue knew what she was thinking and smiled, "I know what you're thinking, and so am I. What I mean is that the future will be complicated. Just because we don't have any ideas doesn't mean others don't."
Han Xue suddenly had a feeling that President Gao might have heard something. Could it be that someone really wanted to compete with that Sister Xiangjun?
Who could it be? Even President Xu didn't have this idea. Who would be so ignorant and arrogant?
"Sister Yue, don't worry, I have no ulterior motives. In fact, I would rather be your assistant for life."
Gao Yue smiled with relief. Her words did indeed have a certain warning meaning, because Xu Wu had also talked to her about this matter, and she knew that Xu Wu was actually setting an example for them.
If it were a competition, Xu Wu would be the most qualified, but she didn't. In fact, whenever Zhao Xiangjun was involved, Xu Wu would automatically lower her posture and show her even more respect than she did to Chen Xiao.
Xu Wu wanted to set an example for Gao Yue and the others. If she didn't compete, then the others had even less right to compete, which is why everyone now doesn't have much desire for that position.
"Starting tomorrow, you'll be moving to the boss's office. Congratulations!"
Han Xue knew what she was congratulating her about—not about the promotion, but about being close to the boss and being able to be favored at any time.
Sister Yue is so indecent, it's embarrassing! Back when we were at the Junxiao Lakeside Hotel, she would often practice her soprano voice through the wall. She's so bold.
"If you really can't handle it, just call me for help. I'll fight the boss with you, hehe."
Her ear tips instantly turned bright red, and her fingertips unconsciously tightened the buttons on her silk cheongsam. Sister Yue was really bold. Perhaps this scene would happen soon. Once she went up there, would she still be able to escape?
"The boss arranged for someone to buy you a house. He originally said he wanted to choose one more, but then he said it was just for a short time, so he asked me to call President Ding Yong and reserve a villa for you from Jindi Xiushan Garden so you could be neighbors with He Qing. I don't even know if he had any other ideas, hehe."
She had barely finished speaking when her phone received a message. After reading it, she was stunned: "He asked me to choose the same floor as you and buy an apartment for me too. It seems he had planned this all along."
"I reckon the property management of Jindi Xiushan Garden is going to be in a real bind. Three Rolls-Royce fleets in one community, haha. Even Xiangshan Linyu doesn't have this many luxury fleets. Isn't this a way of advertising for Mr. Ding's Jindi Group?"
Her thoughts were always so jumpy; she was very serious at work, but acted crazy outside of work. No wonder her former boss used to spank her. Han Xue thought to herself.
It was already evening when they arrived in Jiangzhou. After having dinner with Han Xue at the Junxiao Lakeside Hotel, Gao Yue returned to her accommodation.
Han Xue went to the parking lot to retrieve her Range Rover and return to her dormitory. She wouldn't be staying in the dormitory for more than a few days. Tang Tang and Zhang Ping had already planned to rent apartments elsewhere, and Zhang Ping might even buy a small apartment. As she said, her current housing provident fund was more than enough to support her.
Sitting in the car, Han Xue opened her mobile email and updated her corporate email.
Two emails, the first one was from the HR department of Junxiao Hotel Management Group:
[Following a decision by the management of Junxiao Hotel Management Group, effective [Date], Han Xue will no longer serve as Special Assistant to the Chairman.]
This email is addressed to all employees of Junxiao Hotel Management Group. There is also another email from Junxiao Group headquarters. This email is only visible to senior management.
To implement the Group's strategic plan, the Board of Directors has approved the establishment of Junxiao Retail Company (Junxiao Supermarket) and appointed Han Xue as its Chairman and General Manager, responsible for all business operations and management.
The second email was supposed to be groundbreaking news, but it didn't cause much of a stir because the people who sent the email had already received the information. The only people qualified to know about this were the heads of a few business units and senior executives of the group.
On the contrary, the first email caused a huge uproar, and the entire Junxiao Hotel Management Group was almost in an uproar.
That's Mr. Gao's special assistant, Han Xue, who has always been highly trusted by Mr. Gao. How could she be dismissed?
They believed she had been dismissed because the email only stated that Han Xue was no longer serving as a special assistant, without mentioning her whereabouts.
However, within the Junxiao Hotel Management Group's system, unless Han Xue were to take on the role of general manager of a hotel or deputy general manager of the hotel management group, any other position would be considered a demotion.
Even a store manager might not be as important as her current position.
The key issue is that the company currently does not have a general manager position for any hotel projects vacant. It's impossible for an assistant to rise to the position of vice president overnight, so everyone speculates that she has left the hotel management group.
In her dormitory at Jiangzhou University, Tang Tang lay on her bed chatting with Zhang Ping. She was thinking about the results of her interview from two days ago; she had passed.
The job is easy; all she has to do is go to the yacht when it's in use. The monthly salary of 5 yuan is really easy to earn. The only problem is that she doesn't know what might happen inside.
The interviewers had prepared them mentally, so they roughly guessed what they would be doing. However, the interviewers said that they would not force them and it would all be voluntary.
[Zhang Ping: Tangtang, I'm planning to move out in the next few days. I'll rent a place with a colleague first.]
[Tangtang: Hmm, not considering buying an apartment anymore?]
[Zhang Ping: I haven't saved enough money yet, but I should be able to in a few months. Sigh, if we're talking about who's the best among us, Han Xue definitely bought a house first; her salary seems to be over 5 yuan a month.]
Tang Tang didn't say anything. She had to admit it. Even if she could earn 5 yuan a month on the yacht, it still couldn't compare to Han Xue, who was the special assistant to the chairman of Junxiao Hotel Management Group.
hum~
Tang Tang glanced at her phone and saw a WeChat message from Zhou Xiaomei, who had also passed the interview with her.
Her almond-shaped eyes widened in disbelief, her eyelashes casting dappled shadows as they trembled violently.
{How could this be? How could this be? Han Xue was dismissed without any warning. President Gao trusted her so much. What happened?}
Her fingers tightened suddenly around the phone, her knuckles turning white from the force, and Han Xue's resignation email on the screen blurred into a blinding spot of light in front of her eyes.
Zhou Xiaomei showed her screenshots of the emails sent by the company, leaving her no choice but to believe them.
She lay on the bed, her throat feeling as if gripped by an invisible hand, her chest heaving so violently that the pearl buttons of her silk blouse swayed slightly.
It wasn't that she felt sad for Han Xue, but this sudden change was just too unbelievable to her.
Once I truly accepted all of this, the long-lost sense of superiority seemed to return.
{Now that Han Xue is unemployed, I'm the best off in this dorm again. I always said that Han Xue's meteoric rise couldn't last; nobody really reaches their peak right from their debut.}
Then he remembered that he hadn't replied to Zhang Ping's words yet, and said mysteriously, "That's not necessarily true. I'm going to have a competition with her."
Huh? Zhang Ping couldn't help but look up at Tang Tang, thinking she had lost her mind.
Han Xue is the chairman's assistant at Junxiao Hotel Group, while you, Tang Tang, work as a receptionist in the hotel lobby. The two of you are like heaven and earth. Compare yourself to her. Is this the courage Liang Jingru gave you?
Zhang Ping is extremely grateful to Han Xue. It can be said that without Han Xue, she wouldn't have her current stable and high-income job, nor would she receive any extra care from her company leaders. Under these circumstances, she cannot tolerate anyone disrespecting Han Xue, even if that person is Tang Tang.
"Are you comparing yourself to your boss?" (End of Chapter)
