Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 493: Chapter 493 Gradually Losing Patience (First Update)
 

After the receptionist had left, Tian Bojun sprawled onto the sofa with his legs crossed, awaiting his moment with an arrogant air.

In his view, Xue An was certainly just posturing.

He actually had the audacity to insist that every member of the board come to meet him. Who did he think he was?

At this thought, Tian Bojun gave a cold chuckle, thinking to himself that he would see how the man would extricate himself from this situation.

By now, a crowd had gathered not far away, and people were discussing the matter in hushed tones.

“What’s going on? Is Tian Bapi cleaning house again?” someone sneered.

“Shh, keep it down. If Tian Bojun hears you, he’ll kick you out for sure! I heard someone clashed with Tian Bojun face to face! Now it’s blown up into a big deal!”

“It takes guts indeed, but with Chairman Qiao backing Tian Bojun, who would dare to provoke him?” another person sighed with lament.

These were people who were highly dissatisfied with Tian Bojun’s actions.

At the same time, many of Tian Bojun’s lackeys were also gossiping.

“Heh, I’ve heard someone bragging that he wants all the chairmen to personally come see him!”

“Really? Who is this guy with such audacity?”

“I bet it’s some rich second generation who’s never seen the world! To actually stir trouble at Tianyuan Company, just wait for a good show!”

“Heh, daring to mess with Manager Tian, he clearly doesn’t know how to write the word ‘death’!”

Overhearing these murmurs, Tian Bojun became even more smug and disdainful, casting a glance at Xue An seated beside him.

Yet there Xue An was, relaxing on the sofa, leisurely sipping his tea, seemingly in no hurry at all.

This guy really knew how to keep his cool, Tian Bojun thought bitterly.

Seconds and minutes ticked by.

As time passed, the look of disdain and mockery on Tian Bojun’s face grew even thicker.

The crowd of onlookers grew larger, their quiet discussions continued, but nearly no one was optimistic about the unfolding situation.

After all, the whole affair sounded like a fantastical tale.

It was well known that Tianyuan was an international mega-corporation, manufacturing the extremely important Heaven’s Fate Elixir, and of great strategic significance, which made Tianyuan Company stand above the rest.

Even if heads of state were to visit, it wouldn’t be possible to stir all the directors into action.

Many people thought that this man was about to be metaphorically slapped in the face.

Meanwhile, in an office on the top floor.

Qiao Le was busy at work when his secretary walked in.

“Director Qiao, these are the documents you need to review and sign today!” The secretary placed a hefty pile of paperwork on the desk.

Qiao Le let out a sigh, “That many again?”

The secretary smiled faintly, “This is just a small portion, there will be more in the afternoon!”

Qiao Le slumped in his chair, the picture of despair.

Seeing him like this, the secretary couldn’t help but purse her lips and chuckle quietly.

Although a prestigious Tianyuan director and listed among the ranks of the wealthy, private life Qiao Le was more like a big boy.

After a few sighs, Qiao Le continued to work with renewed vigor.

The young secretary busied herself tidying up the office.

Cleaning was usually handled by dedicated janitorial staff.

But this particular secretary preferred to do it herself.

Because it allowed her more opportunities to interact with Director Qiao.

It was known at this point that outsiders started calling Qiao Le, Zhao Xuehui, and Yang Binyi the “diamond bachelors.”

Countless women dreamt of getting close to these three directors, hoping for a meteoric rise.

And this young secretary was no exception.

While the young secretary was leisurely wiping the desk, the phone on it rang.

The secretary answered it.

“This is Director Qiao’s office, may I ask what this is regarding?”

After listening for a couple of sentences, the secretary frowned, “Do I really need to report this? There are countless people every day trying to approach the directors under various pretenses, why not just send him away?”

After finishing her words, the secretary hung up the phone.

Buried in his work, Qiao Le didn’t lift his head as he asked, “What happened?”

“Director Qiao, the front desk just called, saying there’s someone claiming all the directors should go to the lobby to meet him!”

“Huh?” Qiao Le lifted his head in confusion.

The secretary continued to chatter, “And he also said something like ‘I’m back!’ Probably a lunatic, I guess—I have told the front desk to send someone to throw him out!”

No sooner had she finished speaking than a loud noise sounded.

The secretary shivered with fright and turned her head to look, only to see Qiao Le standing up with an ashen face.

He had risen so forcefully that he knocked the laptop off the desk onto the floor.

“What did you say?”

The secretary’s voice trembled with fear.

“I said… there’s someone claiming all the directors should meet him, and he said, ‘I’m back!’ You…”

Before she could finish, Qiao Le had leapt onto the desk and dashed out of the office in two strides.

The secretary stood there dumbfounded, completely at a loss as to what had just happened.

After rushing out of the office, Qiao Le sprinted all the way to the conference room and kicked the door open with one foot.

Inside, Zhao Xuehui, Yang Binyi, Shu Liu, Gao Shengnan, and others were in a meeting.

This sudden intrusion left the people inside startled.

Zhao Xuehui slightly frowned, “Third Brother, what’s the matter? What are you rushing about for?”

“It’s… it’s Second Brother… Second Brother is back!” Qiao Le called out, panting heavily.

Zhao Xuehui was stunned, then stood up abruptly, “Are you talking about Xiao An?”

Qiao Le nodded, “He’s in the lobby, and according to the front desk, he wants all the directors to meet him now!”

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room stood up.

Zhao Xuehui’s expression was grave, “Second Brother hasn’t called before coming back this time, and he had the front desk notify us, there must be something going on, let’s go quickly!”

Saying this, he rushed out ahead of everyone.

Qiao Le and Yang Binyi followed closely behind.

Gao Shengnan and Shu Liu exchanged glances and hurriedly followed as well.

They both had come to understand by now.

It had to be his return that could make these three brothers so anxious!

Their collective sprint left every employee who saw this scene completely dumbfounded.

Why were all the directors running wildly with such serious expressions?

What had happened?

Even before reaching the elevator, Zhao Xuehui had already shouted, “Quick, open the elevator for me!”

This office building had a VIP elevator, used exclusively by directors and staffed by assigned attendants.

Upon Zhao Xuehui’s shout, someone immediately opened the elevator.

They hurried in and instantly pressed the button for the first floor.

Meanwhile, as the elevator swiftly descended,

Tian Bojun, who was in the lobby, stood up impatiently and said with a sneering chuckle, “It’s been ten minutes already and not a single director you called for has shown up! Now do you have anything else to say?”

Xue An smiled slightly, “From the tone of your voice, you seem confident about having me cornered!”

Tian Bojun’s face was smug as he coldly sneered, “That’s right, I’m certain, and what can you do about it? Security, grab this guy for me!”

The security guards had been waiting on the side, and at this command, they surged forward, ready to take action.

Xue An’s gaze grew colder, his patience completely exhausted.

Just then, a tumult of exclamations came from the distance.

“My God, it’s Director Qiao, Director Zhao, and the others!”

“All the directors are here!”

Tian Bojun, upon hearing this, turned his head in surprise and saw the crowd parting to form a path as Qiao Le, Zhao Xuehui, and others charged towards him, their foreheads covered in sweat.
