Supreme Heir Son-in-law

The news of Xu Ke’s visit to the company immediately spread throughout.

For this former president, everyone was more surprised than anything.

Some perceptive individuals sensed something was off, as too many things have been happening at the company recently, not to mention the president hasn’t been here for a long time. His visit must be to address some issues.

Xu Ke, along with Xu Duo, started inspecting each department one by one without prior notice, so most employees were unaware.

They first arrived at the Design Department. Murong Hai had already informed him that the design department is the least affected by Wang Lishan and Director Zhang.

This department hasn’t undergone significant changes and still operates in coordination with other departments of the company.

As the two walked into the Design Department, many employees who were working immediately turned to look at them.

Although there were many newcomers, most of the veteran staff immediately recognized Xu Ke.

"Old President, why are you here?"

Xu Ke’s appearance instantly livened up the Design Department.

"Don’t mind me, I’m just here to inspect the company. I heard everyone has been working very hard recently, seemingly responsible for some project."

Upon hearing Xu Ke’s words, the old employees in the Design Department began to complain.

"Old President, it seems you should know the situation. We don’t understand what kind of stress Director Zhang is under, demanding we complete a plan in three days. When you were here, the fastest we could manage was a week. Now, it’s just too much to ask for in three days. We even pulled an all-nighter last night. But even so, we’re still far from Director Zhang’s requirements. Three days is simply not enough."

Xu Ke was quite taken aback by the complaints of the employees.

Xu Duo hadn’t told him about this; he thought it was just a piece of suppressed news by the company, but he didn’t expect Director Zhang to pull such a stunt.

As for Director Zhang, Xu Ke didn’t know much about him.

This person was recommended by Wang Lishan, and after a brief background check that seemed fine, he was put in charge of the Design Department.

However, it now seems that his decision was somewhat hasty, and Director Zhang doesn’t seem to be up to the mark.

"Are you saying all this havoc is caused by Director Zhang? Almost all orders in the company are being issued by him now."

The old employee was evidently frightened by Xu Ke’s inquiry.

Xu Ke’s expression showed he was about to get angry. When Xu Ke is not upset, he’s quite easygoing, but once angered, his fury is like a thunderstorm.

"Old President, I don’t really know about this. I’m just a team leader in the Design Department. You should ask our director about this."

Although the old employee wished to explain the situation to Xu Ke, he still had to keep his job.

Director Zhang is so powerful within the company that no one dares to provoke him.

The old employee had family responsibilities and desperately needed this job, so he naturally wouldn’t risk disrupting his life.

Detecting his concerns, Xu Ke decided not to press further.

"In that case, call your design department director over. I believe it’s Xiao Li who’s in charge."

The "Xiao Li" Xu Ke referred to was indeed the director of the design department.

He was once an entry-level employee in the company, but Xu Ke discovered his talents by chance and gradually promoted him to his present position.

For Director Li, Xu Ke was the mentor who brought him up. So after hearing Xu Ke visited the company, Director Li immediately put aside his work and came rushing over.

As soon as he arrived at the Design Department, he saw Xu Ke sitting and talking with Xu Duo.

"Old President, you finally remembered the company. You have no idea how chaotic things have become in your absence. Many times I wanted to reach out to you, but I lacked a valid reason and feared bothering you." As he spoke, Director Li began to shed tears.

Xu Ke had always admired Director Li, as he had personally cultivated him. Director Li was his man.

Xu Ke had complete trust in Director Li, who had provided significant help many times during the company’s critical moments.

"Xiao Li, I just got here. My grandson mentioned the company faced some issues he couldn’t handle, so I came to look. Ultimately, the company will be handed over to my grandson, and I’ll count on your support for them. I’m grateful in advance for your help."

Xu Ke’s words were heartfelt, moving the veteran staff around him deeply.

"Old President, rest assured. Your grandson’s issues will be our issues. We’ll do our utmost for the company."

"Indeed, Old President. All of my accomplishments today are because of you. You’re my benefactor and mentor. Since your grandson is the new president, I’ll wholeheartedly cooperate with him. I guarantee to treat him as I treat you."

Director Li had been working tirelessly at the company.

Director Zhang’s actions over this time were visible to the upper management.

Ordinary people might not know, but the management knew well that President Zhang was in cahoots with Wang Lishan from the board.

It’s clear that everything he’s doing now is for Wang Lishan.

The executives have no idea what Wang Lishan’s intentions are, but it’s obvious they’re up to no good.

The current atmosphere in the company is volatile, with even some newcomers unable to cope, having already tendered their resignations.

Director Li had just checked with the HR department and found that the number of resignations in the past few days reached a staggering 30.

Considering the company’s total employees barely reach two to three hundred, such a loss was hard for Director Li to accept.

On the way back, Director Li pondered how to relay this information to Xu Ke. Now that Xu Ke was here, he could explain everything directly.
