Chapter 1223 - 1223: Acting Within One's Means

After the meal was over.

Lin Feng bade farewell to Zhang Yuxi and Lin Feng's grandfather's family.

Lin Feng said to his two uncles, "If I manage to handle the company matters well this time, I'll keep you informed."

After hearing this.

Lin Feng's grandfather shook his head and said, "Your two uncles have their hearts set on national affairs. As for your Technology Research Department, they can't offer much help."

"Telling them is useless; you'd be better off coming to me."

The eldest uncle, Zhou Zhenguo, refused to accept this, saying, "Dad, how can you be sure I won't support our nephew?"

After saying that.

He patted Lin Feng's shoulder and said solemnly, "Good nephew, don't worry."

"This time, your uncle will definitely help you."

"Don't mind your grandfather. He doesn't want us to contribute to the nation as much as he wants us to focus on other fields."

Listening to his uncle, who is already in his forties or fifties.

Still acting like a child arguing with his grandfather.

All Lin Feng could do was smile wryly, nod heavily, and say, "Don't worry, uncle."

"Wait for the company's news."

"Once there's progress, I'll be sure to let you know."

The second uncle also stepped up and said solemnly to Lin Feng, "If you need any help at all, just let us know. We two uncles may not be able to help with other matters."

"But if anyone dares to cause trouble for your company, we have our ways."

To say the least, Lin Feng truly should be thankful to these two uncles.

After bidding farewell, Lin Feng drove off with Zhang Yuxi.

On the road.

Zhang Yuxi worriedly grabbed Lin Feng's hand.

"As far as I know, your technological research company is bound to face many competitors, are you sure nothing will go wrong?"

After all, she had witnessed everything along the way.

Lin Feng had never failed at anything.

So she believed that whether it was technological research or any other project.

He would succeed this time too.

Lin Feng had always been someone who attracted enemies.

Thus, he was somewhat concerned; given past incidents that were resolved, though Zhang Yuxi remained quite worried about him.

Lin Feng held her hand, smiling as he said, "Don't listen to my two uncles exaggerating the danger, it's not that serious."

"Rest assured."

"This time, I'll act according to my capabilities; I know my limits."

"You just stay at home, and there's no need to go to school for the time being."

Zhang Yuxi looked at Lin Feng, puzzled.

Wondering why Lin Feng suddenly didn't want her to go to school.

Zhang Yuxi asked in a somewhat naive manner, "Why stay home? Our vacation seems to be coming up soon, why not go to school."

Lin Feng laughed, "Because my grandfather asked when we're getting married; what should I say to him?"

Zhang Yuxi covered her face with her hands, looking shyly, "How can grandpa mention such things beforehand?"

"We haven't reached that stage yet."

Lin Feng nodded.

Yet couldn't help but teasingly add, "That's not certain."

"Grandpa said he wants a great-grandson soon; if you give him a chubby boy, he'd be thrilled."

After realizing the situation, Zhang Yuxi said, "You're unreasonable, I don't want to talk to you."

She knew that Lin Feng was intentionally saying this, since meeting his grandfather, she understood he was an open-minded person...

It's unlikely that he'd pressure them to marry so soon; even if he had a certain logic to it.

But Lin Feng's grandfather truly hoped they would marry early, yet regarding children, he hadn't mentioned it.

This was Lin Feng purposely teasing her.

But Lin Feng wouldn't admit it.

Lin Feng chuckled.

"By the way, didn't you say you wanted to settle scores with me yesterday?"

"Let's go home now."

…

Inside a tech office building.

In a spacious office, a man in a suit sat on a chair, rubbing his forehead, agitatedly slapping the table.

Loudly demanding, "Where is Lisa? Where did she go?"

"Hurry up and give me this research report, or should I keep waiting?"

Upon hearing his words.

Outside, the sound of high heels echoed.

Then someone rushed in, pushing open the door, revealing a woman in a suit, the secretary Lisa.

She caught her breath and placed a file on the young man's desk, saying.

"Director Zhang, this is the final research report from our study."

"Please review it."

Upon hearing her words.

The man called Director Zhang finally took out the report and glanced at it.

Once he saw the displayed data, he trembled with rage.

Directly tearing the report in half.

And tossed it onto the floor.

Glaring angrily at Lisa.

Lisa felt uneasy being stared at by him.

She trembled, wondering if Director Zhang would vent his anger on others again.

Despite being a close secretary to Director Zhang.

If Director Zhang went crazy, trying to sideline her, no reasoning would work, let alone affect her own path.

Lisa almost wanted to leave then.

Yet this time Director Zhang didn't directly explode.

Director Zhang turned his head and said, "You have seven more days, make the data grow by ten percent; if you fail, then all those idle at the Technology Research Department can get lost."

Upon hearing Zhang Ce's outburst, Lisa breathed a sigh of relief.

Because she knew this time Director Zhang hadn't targeted innocent people.

But she needed to quickly communicate this.

Otherwise.

People would worry about how they might fare.

"Yes, Director Zhang, don't worry."

"I'll convey your message to the research department."

"They will present a new sample for your review within the given time."

Having said that.

Lisa intended to leave.

But at that moment, Director Zhang extended a hand, grabbing hers while laughing.

"Lisa, where are you going?"

"Come over."

"It's been a while since we've gone home together."

Seeing him say that.

The secretary Lisa nodded, her face showing a trace of a smile.

She knew this was Director Zhang's special attention towards her.

In this company, only someone as young and beautiful as her.

And being the closest female secretary to Director Zhang gets such good fortune.

Others don't receive this treatment.

So.

She gladly stepped closer to Director Zhang.
