Chapter 219 - Annual Anniversary Party (14) The new CEO of Li Corporation. (2/2)
”Grandpa? You...”, Lifen was confused. Haven't hee grandfather said the she will be taking the responsibility of the Vice President position then now how does it turn to be the CEO .
Did her grandfather tricked her into this?
The elder gave a warm smile to his granddaughter as he said softly, ”I believe you. You can do it better than me. And I will definitely guide you from backstage ”.
”But...”
”No need to get 'buts' and 'ifs' in between. Can't you see I am getting old and unable to keep the orderly tracks of the things going in the organisation. And above all the employees favours you more in comparison to me”, President Li said loud enough to let everyone listen.
With his words he wanted to make clear that his decision will not change and also the power Lifen holds among the employees of the company.
Lifen gave a gentle nod of approval as she reverted her gaze back towards the guest, ”Hope we can do better in future. Kindly guide me and look after me”.
Everyone came to congratulate her and even tried to leave good impression so that they could get favourable help in the future.
Jie has long been lost in the crowd and there wasn't any trace of her in the party.
When Lifen got free from greeting the guest, she turned to look at her two friends, only to find them sitting at a table with both hands on either sides of their cheeks and staring her dumbfoundedly.
At first she was nervous, how her friends will respond to the revelation but now seeing their expression, she can say they are still her friends and isn't mad at her. Seeing their expressions, Lifen couldn't control her laughter as she walked to them.
As she reached them, Daiyu pulled her hard and slumped down on one of the chair beside them. Erica was pretty amazed by the close relationship her boss share with her friends.
”Lifen, what was all that? Was that all true? I am still unable to believe it. It feels like I am inside some story where you are the lead actress whose identity is suddenly revealed to be so high and heavenly ”, Daiyu said with a look that says 'I am still dreaming'.
Guang too nodded at her friend's words. They still doesn't know, how they should take these unbelievable information about their friend with whom they have almost shared half of their life.
Their friend was someone they have always been protective for but now it's suddenly revealed that she held such power where their protection meant nothing.
Lifen pressed her lips to control her laughter as she pinched hard on her friend's arms to let them believe the reality. But before she could say another word to explain everything, a familiar voice came from behind, ”Congratulations!”.
