Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

Han Kui's smile froze, and after a few seconds he earnestly advised, "Wanwan, don't be too radical in your actions. Many of these people are old-timers that your mother recruited back then. They've stayed with us all these years, and even when the company was struggling to operate multiple times, they didn't give up on us. Aren't you just breaking their hearts by doing this? Who will want to follow you in the future?"

Zhou Liwan smiled and patted off the few specks of ash that floated on her clothes as they drifted in the air: "What I do is my business. I will never keep anyone who has any disloyalty to me."

All of them are over fifty years old. If they are laid off, they will have to compete with the young people. Not only will their salaries not be much higher, but they will also lose the year-end bonus as veterans.

Some people have already started to regret it; they initially just thought this little girl could cause some kind of trouble.

But only now do I realize that the games played by those in high society are far beyond the reach of ordinary people like us.

The already portly, balding head of administration lamented, "Miss, we're all getting on in years, nearing retirement. We've dedicated our entire lives to the company, and if we're let go now, we'll truly have nowhere to go!"

Zhou Liwan looked at him coldly and shrugged mockingly: "I've already given you a chance. What can you do if you can't seize it?"

The R&D department was still as arrogant and self-important as ever, and it was unclear what they were so confident about: "I was personally recruited by your mother with a high salary back then. Of the three of us, I was the only one who understood the core of the company's products. If you fire me, I'd like to see how you continue your mother's hard work!"

Zhou Liwan clapped her hands with feigned admiration, her tone still utterly indifferent: "I think you guys have made a mistake, haven't you? Yes, this is the company my mother left me."

With a turn of her head, Zhou Liwan arrogantly surveyed everyone present, including Assistant Li, who had remained silent until now.

"But it's just a small company. For Jiang's daughter, it's really just a toy to practice on. So its life or death is not important to me. I want it back simply because I don't want shameless people to try to seize all her property after destroying her family!"

Everyone present instantly lost all color in their faces, turning deathly pale.

At that moment, they realized more deeply the gap between classes, a gap they could never cross in their lifetime.

Even a little girl can decide the fate of her entire family with just a few words.

"We were really wrong, please give us another chance, Miss!" The group exchanged glances. If they continued to act arrogantly and ungrateful at this point, they would truly be foolish.

Zhou Liwan seemed to have expected this, and her aura softened considerably; "I can give you the opportunity, but you'll all be demoted one level. Is there a problem?"

The company is small, so the organizational structure is not complicated. If a position is demoted by one level, then the person will have no power to participate in the company's decision-making process, big or small.

[That little bitch really left me no chance to escape! Since that's the case, she can't blame me for being ruthless as her elder.]

Han Kui's face turned extremely sour, and his previous hypocrisy had completely vanished.

"No problem, of course no problem!" Everyone wiped their sweat and nodded and bowed hurriedly.

"Liu Jianshe, stay here. The rest of you, hurry back!" After everyone left, Zhou Liwan watched them go and then smiled at the person who had been smiling rather lewdly with his eyes narrowed.

"What are your instructions, sir?"

Liu Jianshe knew very well that although Chairman Han Kui was definitely leaving, he would still be standing in this office, so he had to be careful how he addressed Zhou Liwan, so as not to offend either side.

"Find me a few cleaning companies to thoroughly disinfect and clean this chairman's office from the inside out. Also, throw away all these decorations and replace them with new ones."

Liu Jianshe swallowed hard, his expression like someone who was constipated.

[What have I done to deserve this? Han Kuiren hasn't even left yet, and he's blatantly kicking people out like this! What am I supposed to do?!]

Han Kuishen's expression darkened, and he slowly forced a smile, revealing a hint of malice as he stared intently at Zhou Liwan: "Miss Zhou, isn't it a bit like discarding a used tool after it has served its purpose, to get rid of people in such a hurry?"

"Think what you want." After saying that, he turned around and walked out with his assistant, Li. "Go and find those few people from the R&D department who left here before."

Li Qiang finally asked, puzzled, "Why would Miss suddenly want to bring them back?"

“The R&D department is the company’s top priority, and I don’t trust the current staff.” Assistant Li wanted to ask more questions, but Zhou Liwan had already stopped and was waiting for someone in her place.

After seeing the HR manager walk out looking bitter and resentful, a nonchalant smile returned to her tranquil face.

Good heavens, why hasn't that devil left yet?!

Liu Jianshe, grinning like a frolicking frog, jogged towards Zhou Liwan, his smile as wide as a toad's: "What else do you need, sir?"

Zhou Liwan's smile deepened: "Thank you for your hard work. Do me one more thing: fire Manager Wang in the finance department immediately. You will be in charge of the finance department's appointments. Don't worry about it, I believe in you. You're capable of great things!"

[Ugh, so touching! I, Lao Liu, have worked so hard all my life, and all my skills have finally been recognized by a discerning person! I could cry!]

Liu Jianshe gritted his teeth, his small fists clenched tightly, with an expression of determination: "I promise I won't let the leaders down!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked away with a whimper.

Zhou Liwan chuckled and left with her assistant, Li, in a fairly good mood.

After getting into the car, he rolled down the window and gave Assistant Li, who was standing in front of the car, a sharp look: "I need to see results on the matter I assigned you in two days. Also, make sure Han Kui gets out of here right now! Next time you come, I hope Wanbao will be completely transformed. Now that I've transferred you here, I hope you'll make the most of your abilities, otherwise..."

【Bitch! 】

Zhou Liwan didn't care about being scolded; she had heard it countless times since she got this cheat code.

The harsher they curse, the angrier they are at themselves.

With that in mind, how could Zhou Liwan still hold a grudge against them?

"Have you become mute?" Zhou Liwan asked calmly.

Li Qiang gritted his teeth and said, word by word, "I understand."

Zhou Liwan hummed a song as she slowly rolled up the car window.

Her slightly upturned lips conveyed a blend of innocence and allure, while her eyes exuded both heroic spirit and languid charm.

The car sped away, leaving behind Assistant Li with a gloomy expression.
