CHAPTER 260

"About that, I’m afraid you would not be going soon," Lin Zian informed her.

"What? Why?"

Instantly,. Her smile dropped and her expression changed to a worried one.

"I am sorry dear, but the company has encountered some problems."

"When did this happen?"

"The day before yesterday but I gave them a warning not to disturb me ab out work for the two days of the party and the family get-together."

’Oh gramps..."

"I am sorry dear but I would need your help. It has to do with some landed property that should be ours to the expansion of the company, now the people are complaining and suing us. Also there has been some problems with..."

’Do not worry. I would come to meet you now. This is not something to discuss over the phone."

"Thank you dear. I asm at my study. You can come over."

"Okay."

Beep!

"Anything the matter, Young miss?" Alix asked. Li Jing could see true concern on her face and knew she meant well but not until she could figure out who was watching her last night, she wouldn’t be too trusting of anyone.

"Nothing that serious. I would need to leave and see grandfather first."

"Okay."

Li Jing took a look around as her eyes briefly scanned the room for anything she needed. Alix could see the wrinkles on her forehead just from having her worry take over.

Alix did not need a soothsayer to tell her before she knew that something terrible had happened and it involved or needed the young miss’s help.

After her thorough checking, Li Jing picked up her purse and headed towards the door. "Huh, young miss."

"Yes?" she halted in her steps and tilted her head to the side to look at Alix.

"Should I still inform the driver about your departure or there have been a change in plans?"

"No, do not inform him. I would let you know if I need him. Thanks."

The door slammed closed and the next thing, Li Jing was on the elevator going down to her grandfather’s study room.

By the time she entered the room, she was greeted by three men seated on two separate couch with her grandfather on another couch, presumably his personal couch.

Immediately she entered, she exchanged pleasantries with the men before moving to where her grandfather was seated.

"Grandfather, I am here."

"Yes, please do have your seat." Li Jing obeyed and sat down close to him before waiting for the men to speak.

"Yes, please carry on. Kindly brief her in on the issue at hand."

About thirty minutes later, Li Jing had been told about everything she needed to know about the company and thanks to how smart she was, she was quickly able to grasp every problem and understand the basic things within that short time frame.

"Okay, I understand now. Basically grandfather, this issue had not jusat halted productyiuon of goods, there has been a drop in the prices of stock, that couple with the riot from the people, preventing workers from going to work to produce is one of the major issues affecting the company."

"You analyzed the situation perfectly well miss."

"Okay and the next thing is a change in line of production and workers slacking and all.?"

"Yes, ma," another one of the men replied her.

For some minutes Li Jing did not speak but allowed her brain do some calculations as she reviewed all that was tabled before her.

After some minutes had passed Mr. Lin Zian cleared his throat, drawing Li Jing’s attention to him.

"Li Jing I give you three weeks, just three weeks, see if you can handle the crisis the company is facing right now. If you cannot, then I would not be handing over the company to you so soon and would wait till you are accustomed to it."

"Three weeks is much grandfather. I need a week, maximum two weeks and I can fix everything," Li Jing said after some pondering on it.

"Are you sure?" Lin Zian asked her.

"Very."

"If you need more time I can give it to you."

"No, two weeks maximum is fine." Erven though Mr Lin had not yet put her skills and capabilities to a test, her firm answer was more than enough for him to give her a try and see just how brilliant and how much she took after her mother.

"Fair enough. I give you two weeks then. Mind you if you fail, I would withdraw the claim..."

"I know, grandfather. Simply put, I have two weeks to prove my worth to the company and prove I would be able to manage it as well handle future crisis." New chapters are published on (f)ir(e).net

"I am glad you understand what is at stake here."

"I do."

"Great then. I would give you two weeks and a week of graced just in case." A small smile appeared on his face as he watched the brilliant young lady by his side.

Before she even started he already had faith in what she could do.

"Thank you grandfather. Now, if you would excuse me, I need to get to work immediately."

"Very well dear. If you need anything, Mr. Mo Shaoshen would put you through and show you all that you need to know in the company. For now, you would be the acting vice president of the Lin Group. Do well and succeed then you would take your rightful place as the next CEO."

"Okay. Sirs, if you would excuse me." They nodded their consent and Li Jing took her leave.

Two minutes after she was gone, the first man, Qi Yaozu spoke up. "Chairman sir, do you think she is up to the task?"

"I know she would not disappoint me. She is capable."

"What do you think Qiao Zemin?" Mr. Mo Shaoshen asked the third man.

"She has self confidence in herself but often times, it is what makes many fail."

"I regret to inform you that my granddaughter would do well."

"Then we shall see the outcome."
