Ch-20: Encountering Chaos
As I made my way to my company, I prepared for meetings and worked on designs for machines for our factory. I had taken over the company at the age of eighteen, and I was determined to make it thrive.
After a series of meetings, I called out to my secretary.
"Ah Ningshu!"
She was Ah Ming's mother and a close friend of my mom. She knew how adept I was at running a business and the strict rules I enforced.
"Ah, dear! How are you doing? And how is Ah Ming?" she asked, her voice warm.
"Aunt Ning, I'm doing well, and Ah Ming misses you. She asked me to give you some time off to enjoy with her," I replied. Ah Ming had been adopted by Ah Ningshu since she hadn't married during her younger years, and she loved her as her own daughter.

"Of course, Chairman Ye King! I'll provide you with a list of rings and restaurants, so don't worry," she said.
After finishing our conversation, I got back to work.
At five o'clock that evening, I prepared to leave the company. Before I went, I reminded Ah Ningshu, "Aunt, I'm heading out. Please give a bonus to every employee who has been loyal this month."
"Yes, Chairman Ye King. Anything else?" she asked.
"No, just make sure you leave on time and tell everyone to do the same. Health is important! Okay, I'm off," I said, heading toward my car.
