Chapter 92 – That guy hadn’t even appeared in person in the novel, so she really couldn’t take him seriously (1)
Duan Chi hadn’t expected that Song Tingshen would treat him with sarcasm. He felt that his own actions had been on point. Now that Song Tingshen had refused to see him again, there was no reason for him to refuse to leave. Under the attention of Song Corporation’s employees, Duan Chi straightened out his clothes and walked towards the elevator.
Assistant Chen didn’t know how this Mr. Duan had offended CEO Song. Although CEO Song wasn’t talkative, he treated others courteously. As Song Tingshen’s assistant, Assistant Chen naturally thought the fault lied with Mr. Duan. And as a qualified assistant, he had to do his best to lighten his boss’s burdens. Assistant Chen went to the front desk and said to the female employee there, “If that person who just visited comes again, tell him that CEO Song isn’t here. Don’t let him in again.”
The front desk female employee immediately made a note of this on the computer. Curious, she asked, “Did he come here to sell something? He doesn’t look like a salesperson. His watch alone is worth hundreds of thousands.”
That guy clearly had the markings of a rich second generation. Why was he getting blacklisted?
Assistant Chen was very surprised. “You’re sure?”
“I’m sure. My favorite actor has the same type of watch.”
Song Tingshen’s conduct and how he handled things couldn’t be described as smooth and slick. He had always acted cautiously and steadily. Up to the present day, he hadn’t made any enemies in the business world.
Assistant Chen returned to his seat. Thinking about the name of the company on Mr Duan’s business card, he quickly searched the name online. Once he saw the results, his surprise grew.
He had heard about Duan Corporation before. Back when he was still in high school, his cousin had gotten a job offer from this company. The whole family had been happy for him and specially went out to eat to celebrate. At that time, Duan Corporation was one of the very best companies in its industry. Working at this company meant that his cousin could have a very promising future.
At that time, they couldn’t have known that before ten years passed, Duan Corporation would be stomped down hard by a rising new talent. That plus poor management and constant internal power struggles led to Duan Corporation getting worse with each passing year. He had also heard that there had been big layoffs in the recent past period.
A camel that was starved to death is still bigger than a horse. That Mr. Duan was definitely a descendant of the Duan’s. No matter how poorly Duan Corporation was doing, Mr. Duan could still be considered a rich second generation. What could a person like him want from CEO Song? And also, why had CEO Song, who was always very courteous, looked so obviously impatient with him?
Assistant Chen was left puzzled even after giving this issue much thought.

Of course, it would have never occured to Assistant Chen that in this day and age, someone would take the initiative of visiting someone to goad him into divorcing his wife and exclaim that he would treat his son as his own child…
It was already extremely polite and gentlemanly to not beat him to death or beat him until he was a cripple.
Song Tingshen drank a glass of water and finally slowly calmed down. He tossed out that outrageous conversation from his mind and went back to being engrossed in his work.

Ruan Xia naturally had no idea that Duan Chi would visit Song Tingshen. When she had parted ways with Moli that day, she had thought Duan Chi might come and find her. But after a few days of no news, she had almost completely forgotten about that guy. That guy hadn’t even appeared in person in the novel, so she really couldn’t take him seriously.
