After staying in the office for a while, Lin Cheng took Xu Yi with him to the meeting and asked Assistant Xiao Yang to stay and look after Lin Momo.

After Lin Cheng left, as if afraid that Lin Momo would be bored, Assistant Xiao Yang took her to visit the company’s museum, activity room, and dining halls, one by one, and also introduced to Lin Momo what each floor of the company was used for.

… …

On the other side, in the conference room.

At this time, there were more than 30 people sitting around the conference table. These were the senior executives and branch managers of the Hengnan Group. In addition, behind the main seats were the specific persons in charge of various projects and factories.

Seeing Lin Cheng enter the conference room, everyone present stood up at the same time and looked at Lin Cheng with a solemn expression.

Lin Cheng’s appearance here came as no surprise to anyone. Although he rarely visited the company, he had been involved in some of the Lin family’s affairs for over a year now. And when the signature on company documents shifted from Mr. Lin’s to Lin Cheng’s over a month ago, everyone understood Mr. Lin’s intention.

None of the Lin family’s companies were publicly listed, and all operations were financed by the family’s funds. There were no shareholders or equity issues. In other words, everyone present was just an employee, and Lin Cheng, sitting here, was the boss.

Lin Cheng’s gaze swept across the crowd, then he nodded and said, “Please take a seat.”

He then took the seat at the head of the group.

Everyone sat down only after seeing Lin Cheng do so.

Lin Cheng glanced at the assistant who would preside over the meeting. He understood and began the proceedings.

For over a month, Lin Cheng had been in charge of company decisions, and everyone had become accustomed to his direct approach, more direct approach than even Old Master Lin. So, without further ado, everyone began presenting their quarterly work reports.

The reports were equally concise and to the point.

Lin Cheng listened, rarely interrupting, and only offering a few brief comments after someone finished.

… …

Meanwhile, in the livestream channel, because the recording coincided with company matters, the audio was muted during the livestream. Viewers couldn’t hear the meeting’s contents or what Lin Cheng said after the executives and managers finished their reports. However, they could watch the meeting unfold from a distance through the live camera.

Just watching the footage was enough to excite the audience:

[Thank you, program team; thank you, Lin Cheng, for letting me, a lowly employee, witness a meeting of top executives at a major company.]

[Now I have a reference when I read about domineering CEOs having a meeting.]

Elsewhere in the building, Assistant Xiao Yang finished taking Lin Momo on a tour of the company and took her back to Lin Cheng’s office.

“Has Dad finished his meeting yet?” Lin Momo asked, stretching her neck to look in the direction of the conference room next door.

“It shouldn’t end that fast.” Assistant Xiao Yang glanced at the meeting agenda on his mobile phone and said to Lin Momo, “It will probably end around noon at the earliest.

“You can take a look at some books first,” Assistant Xiao Yang pointed to the pile of books on Lin Momo’s desk.

These were the list of books that the homeroom teacher gave to Lin Cheng on the day Lin Momo transferred schools. He said that they were extracurricular reading materials required for the new semester. Lin Cheng bought them all for Lin Momo and also gave her an extra dictionary to help her with new words.

“Okay,” Lin Momo nodded and sat down at her little desk obediently.

“Well, I’ll just read here and wait for Dad. Uncle Xiao Yang, if you have any work, go ahead and do it,” Lin Momo said to Assistant Xiao Yang.

He nodded.

“Then I’ll take care of a few things first. If you need anything, just dial 6 over there, or ask the secretary outside to call me.”

“Okay,” Lin Momo agreed.

Before leaving, Assistant Xiao Yang looked at Lin Momo, then at the extracurricular reading next to her that was piled higher than her head. He suddenly felt a little sorry for her, so he went to the nearby pantry to get Lin Momo a glass of orange juice before leaving.

… …

In the office, Lin Momo finished reading two of the books assigned by her homeroom teacher, one chapter each, and drank her orange juice.

Lin Cheng’s meeting was still going on.

Lin Momo tidied her little desk and picked up her cup, ready to wash it and put it away.

The tea room on this floor was conveniently just past Lin Cheng’s office. Assistant Xiao Yang had pointed out the location to Lin Momo earlier.

When Lin Momo arrived at the tea room, she discovered that it was not only close to Lin Cheng’s office, but also connected to the conference room on this floor.

The tea room was separated from a corner of the conference room by a glass wall. Inside the tea room, one could still see the meeting going on inside.

Lin Momo subconsciously stopped.

The attendant in charge of the meeting came over and saw Lin Momo standing near the tea room door, hesitant to go inside.

The attendant asked Lin Momo with some confusion, “What’s wrong?”

“Will it affect their meeting if I go in there now?” Lin Momo asked, pointing to the glass wall.

After figuring out why Lin Momo was standing there hesitantly, the attendant couldn’t help but smile and explain, “No, this glass is completely soundproof. No one in the conference room can hear anything from here.”

The tea room was designed to facilitate long meetings and allow people to provide necessary refreshments at any time. Generally speaking, people in the conference room wouldn’t pay much attention to this side.

Hearing this, Lin Momo nodded, but she subconsciously lightened her footsteps as she entered the tea room.

The attendant noticed the cup in Lin Momo’s hand and assumed she was looking for a drink, so she asked, “What do you want to drink? I’ll prepare it for you.”

Hearing this, Lin Momo shook her head and explained, “I’m just returning the cup.”

After that, Lin Momo took the cup and walked to the sink across the room to wash it.

Seeing this, the attendant prepared to come over and help Lin Momo, but Lin Momo shook her head and said, “I can wash it myself, Older Sister, you go and do your work.”

Lin Momo took the cup to the sink and washed it carefully. She never noticed that she was being watched.

… …

In the conference room, Lin Cheng listened to the report and looked up from time to time. This time he found that many people’s eyes had shifted from the person who was giving the report to the corner of the conference room.

Even the person who was giving the report glanced at the corner from time to time.

Lin Cheng followed everyone’s gaze and found Lin Momo in the tea room. She had rolled up her sleeves and washing her cup.

Retracting his gaze, Lin Cheng introduced her to everyone, “My daughter.”
