Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

Chapter 124 Fishing

Huo Wang stood by the roadside, wanting to smoke, but hesitated for a long time before finally throwing it away.

It's really not suitable for people with children or patients to smoke.

"It's alright, Mr. Huo. You just said you were preparing to file a lawsuit. Is the process going smoothly? If it is, the court summons should arrive within five days."

Wang Xianghai rubbed his tired face, and his usually meticulously styled hair was slightly messy.

That's his voice, still calm and professional.

"Fortunately, all the documents are ready. I made some evidence of the car accident myself, but we have to wait for the police to take more action. I'm not very clear about her business connections."

Huo Wang had never really looked into this before, but after learning about it, he felt the process was incredibly slow. He desperately wanted to clear his name of the stigma.

Or rather, he hoped that everything would get back on track as soon as possible.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Huo. You did even better than I expected."

Wang Xianghai lit a cigarette, somewhat surprised by the other party's speed. After all, if they hadn't acted quickly enough, a lot of evidence would have been destroyed or altered by others.

Officials and businessmen, officials and businessmen. It's all about the hustle and bustle, the interpersonal relationships.

He has done everything within his power.

"I just hope all of this ends soon."

Huo Wang picked at the dry bark on the tree and exhaled.

"It will be soon. In about seven days, this turmoil will be over."

Based on his past experience, Wang Xianghai provided a timeframe.

"don’t worry."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xianghai rubbed his face even more vigorously. Perhaps due to his recent irritability, stubble had started to appear on his face.

I called home to let them know I was safe and briefly inquired about the situation. I also reassured my wife not to worry.

I dragged my tired body to the company.

He has no plans to change bosses for the time being; it's not easy to find a good boss.

The restaurant issue is actually not too bad; just release the evidence and announce the ongoing legal proceedings. Adding fuel to the fire will only make the already one-sided online sentiment confusing and unclear.

However, the situation at the company is not optimistic. On the surface, they are all inquiring about Jiang Zhuhua's situation, but in reality, they are all asking whether he can continue to work.

If not, a new president will be nominated.

Although receiving dividends is also a way of life, it's not quite the same.

Wang Xianghai had no choice but to take on all these tasks himself. After the two men under his command were questioned and released, he comforted them and then threw himself back into his work.

Investigating cases is not a company matter; there's always endless work to be done when I'm at the company.

However, because of his position, Wang Xianghai was more sensitive to the emotions of some people and secretly wrote down the names of those with ill intentions.

"What do those people mean? They were so easy to talk to when President Jiang was around, but now that President Jiang has had an accident, they're saying this won't work, that won't work, this can't be built, that can't be built."

He went out to pick up some documents, some of which required stamps from other departments, and returned home furious.

Once back in his own territory, he couldn't help but slam the things onto the table.

"Someone below had a problem with the data, but they wouldn't even change it; they just stamped it instead."

Jiang Ning pinched the bridge of her nose. Even if she was completely clueless about social interactions, she could still sense that various departments were targeting them.

"At this moment, I really wish I were one of those big shots hiding among ordinary people. Someone who could easily pull off a 'Dragon Overlord' slap in the face' incident if I got annoyed."

He Wei slumped into a chair, staring at the documents in front of him with a troubled expression.

These are all things that require a stamp to proceed, and if you get all sorts of criticism, you'll end up pleasing neither side.

Why doesn't life give him a satisfying, cathartic story?

He Wei scratched his head and began to worry about losing hair.

"It's okay, if you don't handle it properly, it'll just fall here."

Wang Xianghai also encountered setbacks when he went out to handle some matters.

"Go and get some rest. Do your job well. If they don't approve, that's their problem. Strictly follow the company's rules and regulations and leave work on time."

Being targeted so severely now, no matter what I do, I'll only end up pleasing neither side. It's better to stick to the terms of the original contract and clock in and out on time.

"What will others say about us?"

He Wei leaned wearily against the back of the chair, looking at Wang Xianghai. How could a young man in his twenties be so exhausted?

It's clear that going to work is truly mentally taxing.

"What's wrong with you going to get off work on time? You're only in your twenties, it's normal to have things you don't know. Let them find someone to mentor you and help you with some things. There's so much work, how can one person finish it all?"

Wang Xianghai lowered his voice and gave the two men a suggestive look.

He Wei immediately understood and was so excited he almost jumped up, but Jiang Ning seemed to be completely oblivious.

He Wei leaned over and gently explained, and Jiang Ning's eyes widened, unable to hide his joy.

Even an Ironman wouldn't work this hard; I've developed dark circles under my eyes from all this.

"And what about you, Brother Wang?"

After the initial joy, He Wei began to worry again.

"Me? Of course I'll ask for leave. My direct supervisor is General Manager Jiang, so as long as he approves, it's fine."

One shouldn't go too far in doing things. Leaving two greenhorns around to slack off and still earn a salary is fine. Wang Xianghai can just use being unwell as an excuse to take leave.

After all, those two people's boss is General Manager Jiang, so if they really wanted to take leave, he would approve it. But they can't both take leave, it wouldn't look good.

"I also want to ask for leave."

Jiang Ning clutched his hair in anguish. He had been working overtime and being harassed for days since he left.

I really want to sleep from nightfall until nightfall the next day.

"Why can't we have holidays off for statutory holidays? If we can't have holidays off, then we should ask for leave."

Under Jiang Zemin, although there were no holidays, the salaries were generous. So no one ever mentioned it.

The current mess provides a good opportunity to bring this matter up.

"Or ask them who's willing to pay double overtime. Oh, and I forgot to tell you, remember to read your contracts carefully."

That's all the advice Wang Xianghai could offer.

The other people's contracts were only average, but these two were being treated as trusted confidants, so their compensation was naturally better. This included things like statutory holidays, which were also stipulated in the contract.

Even their salaries weren't paid through the company's accounts, but through General Manager Jiang's accounts. In essence, General Manager Jiang had specifically invited them to be Wang Xianghai's assistants.

"Long live Brother Wang!"

He Wei cheered softly, then checked the time on his phone; it was already time to leave work.

It's already five o'clock.

"Brother Wang, should we go see President Jiang? We've been so busy lately, I think we should go check on him."

Why not pull your rusty brain out of your work?
