Heartstrings Resonance: The Beloved Princess of the Female Power
Chapter 1 Car accident
At 10 a.m., sunlight streamed through a massive glass wall into a conference room in a towering office building in downtown H., illuminating a bustling crowd. A frenzied conversation erupted, echoing throughout the entire floor.
At first glance, a ten-meter-long conference table was occupied by five or six people on either side. These people were all company managers, and their faces wore serious and tense expressions. Among them, a portly, middle-aged man stood out.
With his beer belly bulging like a six-month pregnant woman, he shouted indignantly, "This collaboration with Hongsheng Group has clearly been handled by our team. How come Chen Ming and his team have suddenly taken over? This is so unfair!"
The middle-aged man, Zhang Li, was one of the heads of the company's marketing department. He was deeply displeased with the recent developments, believing his team had been unjustly denied the opportunity to collaborate with Hongsheng Group. His eyes were filled with anger and resentment as he stared intently at Chen Ming across from him, seemingly demanding an explanation. As he spoke, he glared at the man opposite him, then shifted his gaze to the woman sitting at the front of the table. This woman was breathtakingly beautiful, captivating! Though thirty-five, she possessed the youthful, energetic figure and features of a twenty-six or twenty-seven-year-old. Her eyebrows curved like willow leaves, and her oval face was framed by a pair of large, watery eyes, framed by long, thick, curled lashes. Her eyes were bright and deep, seemingly piercing the soul. Her nose was high and delicate, her lips were plump and delicate, and her lips, when slightly raised at the corners, exuded an air of elegance and nobility, exuding an irresistible charm. Such beauty was not only pleasing to the eye, but also tempting to draw closer and learn more about her. Her hair was neatly tied back in a low ponytail. She wore a black, V-neck, mid-length blazer. The waist-cinching design accentuated her already impressive figure, revealing only her delicate collarbone. She paired it with simple black trousers and black stilettos, making her already 165'" taller look even taller. Her only accessory was a watch, exuding an air of calm and confidence.
At this moment, her face expressionless as she looked at Luo Qiang, the Mediterranean-looking man sitting behind Zhang Li. He was the one who had caused this incident, so she slowly spoke, "Luo Qiang, do you know why you were brought here? We have a cooperative relationship with Hongsheng, not someone you're supposed to be pampering. Our company deals in building materials and construction, not some shady club. You actually let the girls in your group drink with the Hongsheng guys? What were you thinking?"
When Luo Qiang heard this, he immediately felt guilty. He didn't dare to look her in the eye. His eyes began to flicker and he stammered, "Aren't we all in the same group? We were just having a drink..." His voice became smaller and smaller, as if he also felt that this reason was a little untenable.
After hearing this, the woman couldn't help but sneer: "Hmph, just drinking a glass of wine~" There was a hint of sarcasm and anger in her tone.
She continued, "You were so drunk that someone almost drank it all! If one of the girls hadn't been sober enough to call the police, and the police hadn't arrived in time, how would you have explained to those girls? How would you have explained to your family? And how would you have explained to the company?" She stared at the Mediterranean man, Luo Qiang, her eyes full of disappointment and blame.
Luo Qiang, a Mediterranean man, knew he was in the wrong. His face turned grim, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. He tried to explain, "I... I did this for the smooth progress of the project, and the girls weren't hurt..."
However, before he could finish his words, the woman interrupted him. She angrily said, "No harm? Do you know what this means to them? Their dignity and reputation will be destroyed by you! Your behavior not only violates company regulations, but also violates the bottom line of being a human being! Do you understand? You're walking on the edge of the law. If anything had happened to them, you wouldn't be standing here now. You're not someone who would tolerate any loss."
Luo Qiang, the Mediterranean man, was a little flustered, but he still said stubbornly, "They all volunteered. If you don't believe me, you can go ask them."
The woman didn't believe him. Her eyes grew serious, staring straight at Luo Qiang, sending a chill down his spine. She then said coldly, "I've already asked them, and they told me you were just talking about having a few drinks, nothing else. If you don't go, your bonus will be deducted. You should know these girls are from small towns, living in difficult circumstances, and they need this job and bonus to make ends meet. And you're using that to threaten them, making it impossible for them to refuse."
Luo Qiang's face turned grim, realizing his lie had been exposed. But he still tried to defend himself: "I... I just wanted to help them expand their social network. After all, social connections are very important."
The woman sneered after hearing this, her voice tinged with anger. "Stop talking nonsense! I don't care how you did things in the past, but An Ran is my responsibility now, and I will never allow this to happen again. So, please leave An Ran immediately."
The Mediterranean man's eyes widened in disbelief. He waved his arms and shouted excitedly, "It's just a small matter? You're actually going to fire me? I've been working at Enron for over a decade! President Mu, you can't just fire me!"
Mu Yunxi frowned slightly and responded firmly: "Since Mr. Xu asked me to sit here, I have the authority to make the decision. Also, this is not a trivial matter. The Human Resources Department will settle your salary." Her eyes were cold and resolute, without any intention of giving in.
Luo Qiang, the Mediterranean man, was speechless. He lowered his head, his lips trembled slightly, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. No one knew what was going on in his mind.
At this moment, the woman spoke again: "This matter must be dealt with seriously and must not be left unresolved. Zhang Li, as their direct leader, you are not strict in your administration. Your bonus this month will be deducted!" Her voice was filled with unquestionable majesty, which made Zhang Li's heart sink.
Then, she looked at everyone with a sharp gaze and said solemnly, "I hope something like this will never happen again. We are a team, and everyone should respect and support each other. Only in this way can we make progress and grow together."
Although Zhang Li was angry, he didn't dare to refute. He could only glare at Luo Qiang beside him, as if blaming him for causing trouble. Luo Qiang still lowered his head, and it was unclear what he was thinking. Mu Yunxi ignored him.
Mu Yunxi looked at Zhang Li and said, "Collect the information you have about Hongsheng and hand it over to Chen Ming and his team as soon as possible. Don't waste time."
Zhang Li nodded and replied, "Okay, Mr. Mu."
Mu Yunxi then emphasized seriously, "I don't want this to happen again, understand?"
Everyone nodded in understanding and answered in unison, "Yes."
She turned to look at Chen Ming and continued, "After they finish the handover, remember to go over there and follow up. Try to familiarize yourself with them as soon as possible."
Chen Ming answered without hesitation: "Okay, Mr. Mu."
Seeing that everyone understood the assignment, Mu Yunxi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, that's it, everyone go about your business."
As she finished speaking, everyone dispersed and began to deal with their work. At this moment, a slim and pretty female assistant walked over quickly and handed a mobile phone to Mu Yunxi.
"Mr. Mu, it's Mr. Xu calling." The female assistant said softly.
Mu Yunxi took the phone and put it to her ear to answer it.
An old but powerful voice came from the other end of the phone: "Yun Xi, are you free now?"
Mu Yunxi smiled and replied, "Master Xu, please let me know if you have anything to say."
The other party responded calmly: "Please come over to the old house. There is something that is not convenient to talk about over the phone."
A hint of doubt flashed across Mu Yunxi's eyes, but she readily agreed: "Okay, Mr. Xu, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Mu Yunxi stood up thoughtfully and told her assistant, "Get the car ready. I'm going to visit Mr. Xu."
"Okay." The assistant replied.
Downstairs, a black luxury car was parked at the gate. A young male driver in a black suit stood beside the car. A slender figure with a black bag in his right hand and a mobile phone in his left hand walked out of the gate.
The driver called out, "Mr. Mu," and opened the right back door.
"Yeah." Mu Yunxi responded and got into the car.
The car was about to enter the lane when a gray sedan suddenly rushed over from the garage exit on the right at a speed of 200 miles per hour. Mu Yunxi looked up and out of the window as if she had sensed something, and saw Luo Qiang, who was driving towards them with red eyes and a ferocious expression. The two cars were less than 10 meters away, and neither of them had time to react. In an instant, the luxury car was scrapped, and the huge impact force affected the vehicles next to it. Mu Yunxi, who happened to be sitting on the right, was declared "dead on the spot" by the doctors who rushed to the rescue. Fortunately, the driver had airbags to protect him and was rescued in time. He had some external injuries but no vital injuries, and a serious concussion but he could recover.
Mu Yunxi felt as if her soul was about to be knocked out of her body after being hit so violently. Everything in front of her eyes was dark, and her brain and body were full of tearing pain. She wanted to scream but no sound came out of her throat.
She had never felt so painful and desperate.
