Because she was addicted

Chapter 66 The First Day of Missing My Wife

The wedding of the Fu and Tang families caused a great stir in the city.

Various unscrupulous tabloids fabricated scandalous news about Fu Huaishen. Haicheng was flooded with reports of Fu Tang's marital troubles.

Speculation about Fu Huaishen's health has been rampant, with all sorts of guesses and revelations.

Some went so far as to say he had a terminal illness and was nearing the end of his life. They even asserted with certainty that Mr. Lin would return to the helm of the M Group.

It is said that Fu Huaishen is still young, morally flawed, and has a messy private life, so he cannot control the situation.

Lu Chenyan held several emergency meetings overnight, but the news was still flying everywhere and couldn't be stopped.

He suspected that someone was pulling the strings behind the scenes.

After all, the Lin family wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by.

What's even more worrying is the Fu family's stock price.

The market opened sharply lower on Monday, with prices plummeting to a loss that caused widespread panic.

When I arrived at the company early Monday morning, the entire group was like a battlefield; no one was at ease.

Lu Chenyan was busy until 3 p.m. before he could catch his breath for a moment.

He looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling window and saw that the secretaries in the president's office were all busy and barely had time to breathe, except for Wen Jia's seat, which was empty.

When I open WeChat, it's completely empty.

"Come in."

Lu Chenyan pressed the internal phone button for Yi Mo.

Yi Mo was incredibly busy all day, not even having time to drink a sip of water since she entered the office in the morning. Just as she sat down to catch her breath, Lu Chenyan summoned her.

She entered the office with trembling legs.

"Mr. Lu, what is it?"

Lu Chenyan tapped his knuckles on the table and hummed several times before saying:

"I haven't had lunch, I'm going downstairs to buy some cake."

Yi Mo: "So, Mr. Lu, you still prefer blueberry flavor?"

"Oh, two portions." Lu Chenyan looked up at Yi Mo, and after a long pause, said, "Do you understand now?"

Yi Mo inwardly grimaced.

Mr. Lu is really something, so handsome but he doesn't have a mouth.

Buying a cake at this time, especially a blueberry one, and two of them, clearly means it's meant for Wen Jia.

What's wrong?

Want to apologize?

That doesn't change the fact that he's a scumbag who deceives people's feelings!

Yimo already knew about what happened over the weekend.

She stayed at home and thoroughly researched all sorts of rumors and gossip.

He cursed Lu Chenyan a thousand times in his heart.

Scumbag!

After cursing in her heart, Yimo maintained her smile.

"Mr. Lu, I understand. But we don't need two servings today."

"Why?" Lu Chenyan asked.

"Because Manager Wen isn't here. I went to the new business unit to pick up some documents and checked there too; Manager Wen isn't here today."

"She took the day off?"

Lu Chenyan's heart clenched immediately.

"I don't know. Yaqin and Chen Dong were just asking me about it."

Lu Chenyan's face visibly darkened.

"Secretary Qin, although Manager Wen has been transferred, she used to be your colleague and has always taken good care of you. As her colleague and friend, haven't you given her a private call to ask why she hasn't come to work, or if she needs any help?"

"I sent her WeChat messages and called her, but she didn't answer."

Yi Mo was a little startled, but she straightened her back and didn't let herself fall down. She even mustered her courage and muttered something under her breath.

"If Li Han dared to deceive and toy with my feelings like this, he would probably be reincarnated in the underworld by now."

"What!?"

Lu Chenyan sat up straight.

A powerful aura instantly swept over us.

Yi Mo was immediately embarrassed, "No, it's nothing."

She fled Lu Chenyan's office as if she were flying, and stood outside the door breathing heavily.

too frightening.

Not two months later, King Yama Lu returned.

Damn it!

When Lu Chenyan learned that Wen Jia hadn't come, he initially assumed she had taken leave.

After all, such a big thing happened, and it's normal to need a few days of rest because you can't process the emotions involved.

But then I thought about it again. Wen Jia is extremely career-oriented. When she was sick, she stayed up all night researching and writing reports. I couldn't persuade her otherwise.

Given the turbulent times at the company, it's impossible for her not to come.

He paced back and forth in the office several times before sitting down and calling Director Liu.

"Bring me everyone's attendance records for today. Five minutes."

Across from them, Director Liu let out a wail.

Five minutes later, Director Liu, wiping sweat with one hand and pulling at his collar with the other, panted and said:

"President Lu, the group has several thousand employees, so it will take time to process the data from the system. This is for the most core departments; the rest are being processed and will be sent up soon."

Lu Chenyan casually flipped through a few departments, and when she got to the new business unit, she paid special attention to it and looked at it slowly.

Wen Jia didn't clock in for work today, nor did she ask for leave.

"Mr. Lu, I have something to report to you. When the new business unit was established, a lot of people were transferred from various departments, especially several project managers from the marketing department."

The marketing department currently has nearly one-third of its staff vacant, making it impossible to carry out many tasks.

Seeing that Lu Chenyan remained silent, Director Liu mustered his courage and continued to ask.

"Mr. Lu, the application for the marketing department recruitment has been with you for several days. Could you please approve it?"

Lu Chenyan slammed the document shut and said expressionlessly:

"Mr. Liu, the new business unit is the most important department in the group right now. As the HR director, you don't care about the whereabouts and daily activities of each employee. Is this how you lead?"

"what?"

Director Liu was dumbfounded, and he even forgot to wipe the sweat from his chubby hands.

What happened to the employees in the new business unit?

Does he need to take personal care of it?

Isn't there still Nie Xuming?

He picked up the attendance sheet on the table and flipped through it quickly.

Lu Chenyan's icy voice rang in my ears again.

"Mr. Liu, since the new business unit was established, many of its functions overlap with those of the marketing department. What do you think we should do?"

"!!!"

Director Liu's eyes widened in disbelief.

What does that mean?

Are the group's senior management planning to lay off the marketing department?

There have been countless such cases in the past year.

At that time, the vast majority of the company's employees had worked their way up with General Manager Lin.

Although President Fu took over the company, many of his orders could not be carried out.

While establishing new departments, General Manager Fu also reorganized and eliminated old departments. Some disobedient and stubborn employees were gradually marginalized or directly removed.

In just over a year, the group rapidly rejuvenated itself through this method.

So now it's finally the marketing department's turn?

President Lu suddenly asked him to take attendance. Was it Shen Yu? Come to think of it, Shen Yu didn't seem to be here today. Maybe she's throwing a tantrum because she didn't get the new business unit director position!

Director Liu was startled.

"Mr. Lu, I understand. I'll go back and prepare a plan for you immediately."

As soon as President Liu left, Lu Chenyan couldn't sit still.

He called Nie Xuming.

Nie Xuming said he wasn't at the company. After Fu Huaishen's outburst over the weekend, he had to appease many business partners. He had been busy ever since he left the wedding venue on Saturday.

"What's wrong?"

Nie Xuming asked on the other end of the phone, his voice sounding extremely tired.

"It's alright now."

Lu Chenyan hung up the phone.

I scrolled back to Wen Jia's WeChat interface.

"Not at work?"

That's inappropriate; it sounds like a boss questioning a subordinate. Delete it.

"Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?"

No way! Isn't that a rhetorical question? You're asking for it!

Lu Chenyan pondered several WeChat messages, but ultimately didn't send any of them.

Just as I was wondering what to do, the phone rang. It was Meng Tao.

"what?"
