Chapter 11: The Road Turns Around!

  The next day, Wang Xue arrived at the company early, and from the dark circles under her eyes, it could be seen that she must not have slept well last night, or even all night. Since Wang Dongcheng had already agreed to help her teach Zhang Ziheng a lesson, why did she still stay up all night? Was she excited?

  Actually, she thought it over again last night, if she really did what she said, wouldn't that be too much? No mistake, that scoundrel is indeed hateful, but not to the point of death. Moreover, she had already hit him, and he had received his due punishment.

  As she thought about it, Wang Xue's anger dissipated a lot, and she even felt that Zhang Ziheng wasn't so bad after all. Maybe she was the one who was too impulsive. In the end, after thinking it over, Wang Xue even regretted her decision.

  Just then, Zhang Ziheng arrived. As soon as she saw him, Wang Xue immediately lowered her head and pretended to be busy, it was unclear whether she was still angry with him or felt guilty and didn't dare look at him.

  It wasn't just Wang Xue who didn't sleep well last night, Zhang Ziheng also thought for a long time. Li Wencheng's words still made him feel puzzled about some things. Even if women are unreasonable, they can't just hit people, but she hit because of what he said, was it really his fault?

  Zhang Ziheng thought about it and actually somewhat believed it, looking at Wang Xue who was busy, he wondered if he should go apologize to her. Just then, the phone rang, Zhang Ziheng picked it up and listened, it was the chairman calling him. He put down the phone and left the office.

  All of this was seen by Wang Xue, and her heart began to tense up as well. Would Dad really fire him? Or would he really let Uncle Li find someone to beat him up? As she thought about it, she actually started to worry.

  Upon arriving at the chairman's office, Zhang Ziheng said politely: "Chairman, you wanted to see me?"

  Wang Dongcheng raised his head and smiled slightly, saying: "Yes, let's sit down and talk."

  "Thank you, Chairman."

  "I came to find you today because of some private matters. Last night, Xue Er returned home and smashed everything in her room. She looked very angry." Wang Dong Cheng said with a smile as he looked at Zhang Zi Heng.

  Zhang Ziheng knew what the chairman was referring to and hurriedly apologized: "Chairman, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Actually yesterday..."

  "Alright, I've heard the whole story from Xue'er. Actually, I should be the one apologizing, my daughter is too spoiled, she's had a big temper since she was little, and no one dares to provoke her or make her angry like this, you're the first." Wang Dongcheng seemed very nonchalant, without any intention of blaming Zhang Ziheng.

  But Zhang Ziheng didn't really think so, and after hearing the chairman's words, he became even more afraid. "Chairman, actually yesterday was all my fault, I shouldn't have let Xiaojie lose face in front of so many people, nor should I... nor should I have said she was my girlfriend. It was all my mistake, really sorry."

  Wang Dongcheng smiled and nodded, continuing to say: "Alright, no need to apologize again. I didn't blame you, but instead want to thank you. As I said earlier, Snow has grown up like this, and you are the first person to make her so angry. This daughter of mine has been spoiled by me, if she doesn't experience some hardships, how can she understand the difficulties? Snow is still young now, there are some things she doesn't understand yet, she must go through them to understand, you must help me teach her well."

  Zhang Ziheng was slightly stunned, looking at the chairman's expression that didn't seem to be joking, secretly thinking that the chairman actually understood things very well, making him think he was a doting father, but it turned out he was so just and fair-minded.

  "I really don't dare to be a teacher, as long as you, Chairman, don't blame me," said Zhang Ziheng.

  "Hmm, I was right about you, kid. You'll definitely have a bright future ahead of you. This project's design was originally your responsibility, and logically, you should be promoted. But since you're still new, I had some reservations about you. However, that doesn't matter now. From now on, I'm officially appointing you as the manager of this project. Do well, and you'll succeed." Wang Dongcheng chuckled to himself.

  Zhang Ziheng was stunned, the chairman just said he wanted to promote himself as project manager, was this true? He simply didn't dare to believe it.

  "Really? Chairman, is what you're saying true?"

  "Haha, did I look like I was joking?"

  "Thank you, thank you so much, Chairman. I will definitely work hard and do a good job on this project, I won't let you down." Zhang Ziheng said happily.

  Zhang Ziheng returned to the office in high spirits, just wanting to call Ziwen to share the good news. At this time, Wang Xue walked over and said without looking at him: "About... yesterday's matter... sorry, it was my fault."

  Zhang Ziheng was slightly stunned, thinking to himself what's going on today? Why are there so many strange things happening? First, the chairman didn't blame him and even promoted him to project manager. Then this feisty young lady actually apologized to him.

  "Hey, I'm talking to you, did you hear me? I've already apologized, what more do you want? Don't be greedy."

  "Ah? Oh, it's okay. Actually, I was also in the wrong yesterday, I should be the one apologizing to you." Zhang Ziheng hastily stood up and said.

  "I'm asking you, what's wrong with you? You even want to argue with me about apologizing. It's clearly my fault, I was being unreasonable and I slapped you." Wang Xue said.

  Zhang Ziheng smiled secretly and said: "Nothing, I've forgotten. Actually, the things that happened between us were all misunderstandings, why don't we let bygones be bygones?"

  Wang Xue looked at him and said, "Since you say so, okay. But... don't you blame me for messing up your job? You know, it's really hard to find a job now, what will you do in the future?"

  "Huh? What's going on? Don't you know? The chairman just promoted me to be the project manager and told me to do a good job." Zhang Ziheng said with a happy smile.

  "What? Dad promoted you as project manager? This... how is this possible? He should have fired you instead." Wang Xue said in disbelief.

  "This is true, the chairman said he didn't blame me at all. Actually, it's also right, the chairman doesn't look like a..."

  "That's enough, don't say any more. Hmph, you've been promoted, are you happy now? Are you feeling proud of yourself?" Wang Xue said indignantly.

  "What's wrong with you? Didn't you agree to put aside our past grievances just now? Why are you being so temperamental?"

  "Who's cleared up past grievances with you? Are you sick or something? I'm telling you, this isn't over between us." Wang Xue said as she slammed the door and left the office.

  Zhang Ziheng looked at her leaving back in confusion, thinking to himself what's going on? Just now she was apologizing to me, how did she change back to normal so quickly? Truly can't understand.

  Wang Xue is now furious, completely forgetting that she had just apologized to Zhang Ziheng earlier. It's as if she's a different person altogether. She doesn't want to think about anything else, only wanting to find her dad and ask him what's going on. But when she arrives at Wang Dongcheng's office, the secretary says that the chairman has gone out of town.

  How is this possible? I just spoke with Zhang Ziheng, how could he leave for another place so quickly? Wang Xue didn't believe it and directly rushed into the office. But there really wasn't a single person in the office, the secretary hastily said that the chairman had just left, at least three to five days would be needed before he returned, maybe even longer.

  Actually, Wang Dongcheng really went out of town. He was too familiar with his daughter's personality, so as soon as Zhang Ziheng left, he packed up and left. In the end, it turned out to be just as he had expected, Wang Xue came looking for him, but she ended up empty-handed.

  Angry Wang Xue let out a loud shout in the empty office, startling everyone, but no one dared to intervene, after all, she was the young mistress.

  After getting off work in the evening, Zhang Ziheng specially invited Ziwen and Xu to come out, planning to have a good meal and celebrate. Of course, there were also Li Wencheng and Deng Xin. Seeing his happy appearance, Wang Xue was unhappy, thinking that Zhang Ziheng was provoking him and showing off. But unable to do anything about it, she could only endure for now, thinking of ways to get revenge later.

  After work, Zhang Ziheng and his party came to the restaurant for dinner. Xu was originally not going to come, but after being persuaded by Zhang Ziheng several times, he still followed.

  When Li Wencheng saw Xu Zong, his eyes widened and he kept asking Zhang Ziheng, "Where did this beauty come from?" which made Deng Xin angry.

  Zhang Ziheng smiled and said, "Director Xu is my benefactor and also my mentor. I was able to join the company thanks to her and Ziwen, so everyone who came today are my best friends. I don't drink alcohol, as you all know, so I'll use a soft drink instead. Let's have a toast!" He then downed his glass of cola in one gulp.

  "Hey, what's going on with you again? You're making a big fuss about it. Alright, I'll keep you company." Li Wencheng said as he downed the beer in his cup in one gulp.

  "But Zi Heng, don't be proud. Although you are now the project manager, it doesn't mean you have succeeded. If this project fails, think about the consequences." Xu Zong hurriedly reminded him.

  "Director Xu, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I have confidence in my design and it will definitely be a success." Zhang Ziheng said confidently.

  "Hey, when you're successful, don't forget about me, okay? I'm really struggling at my company, every day is either fixing computers or moving them around. The skills I learned are going to waste. My requirements aren't high, just let me be a designer and I'll be set." Li Wen Cheng said with a smile.

  Zhang Ziheng smiled and said: "No problem, as long as I succeed this time, you will come to work in our company. No problem, President Xu?"

  "Of course, it's no problem at all. Our company will definitely use people with real ability. And I believe the friends you've made are also of good character, but we'll have to wait and see how things turn out." Xu said with a smile.

  Li Wencheng saw an opportunity and hastily raised his cup with a smile: "Alright, for the success of Ziheng's project, for my smooth job hopping, cheers."

  "Cheers!"
