The voice on the other end of the line kept talking, and the legal director listened attentively, nodding constantly and responding. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Yes, yes..."

"How could I dislike your company, Brother Xia?"

"Xiao Xia? Hey... there’s no need to talk about whether or not to take care. I also have a niece. If she had such promise, I’d be more concerned than you."

Starting with pleasantries, then cutting to the point.

And after the main topic was discussed, it ended with small talk.

A complete and smooth conversation allowed the legal director’s expression to completely relax.

"Alright, Brother Xia, let’s leave it at that. Let’s get together for a meal when we have time."

Finally, with a couple of courteous remarks, the legal director hung up the phone.

He thought it over, opened the door, and happened to see the row of desks closest to his office directly in front of him.

After giving Xia Tian, who seemed not to understand, a smile that was more than just "kind superior caring for subordinates" but not too over-the-top, he called in Red Glasses.

"Brother-in-law, what’s up?" Red Glasses was a bit nervous, "The situation... it’s okay, right?"

Too many things have happened recently at the company, and the expression the legal director just had was one of the few stern ones Red Glasses remembered.

Recalling some of the things the legal director mentioned before, Red Glasses couldn’t help feeling uneasy.

The legal director shook his head lightly: "Continue with the current tasks, but only spend half the effort. Use more time to organize the materials at hand, including the briefs, approval forms, contracts I’ve handled..."

He didn’t directly answer his sister-in-law’s question, but it seemed like everything had already been said.

Red Glasses opened her mouth: "Brother-in-law... you really are leaving, huh?"

If it were ordinary times, as a half-elder, the legal director might have maintained his stance, nodding lightly to his sister-in-law’s question or offering a piece of sage advice to maintain his image.

But perhaps because he endured too much in the boss’s office, or seeing a young person speak frankly had made an impression.

The legal director couldn’t help but complain: "The boss, he’s... too lucky, way too lucky."

"So now he’s gone crazy!"

"This person has no self-awareness. He is indeed the boss, and his wealth is indeed more than the entire company combined."

The legal director raised his voice with each word: "But those are the results of various factors coming together, yet he thinks he’s in this position because—he’s brilliant, he’s mighty, he’s far-sighted!"

"He thinks he can use the old methods to handle the current crises!"

"But this time it won’t work—really won’t work."

At this moment, in the legal director’s mind, a series of Boss Wang’s plans appeared involuntarily.

And the standard rhetoric used to save face after being countered by Nan Zhubin.

"If nothing happens, continuing like this might barely maintain the status quo. Once the company goes public, some problems will naturally not be problems anymore."

In the market, bosses like Boss Wang are definitely not few.

And indeed, some can land smoothly.

"But right now... let’s just say his luck is bad. There’s a big issue with his team, and he definitely doesn’t have the ability to solve it."

The legal director thought of Boss Wang’s setup for him, almost laughing out of anger.

Then he felt if he laughed out of anger, the situation might be even more ridiculous.

"In any case, let’s be prepared."

Seeing her brother-in-law’s series of reactions, Red Glasses, though not knowing what happened in the boss’s office, it was clear her brother-in-law had made up his mind.

Her mood inevitably fell: "Okay..."

This reaction made the legal director pay more attention.

Red Glasses was, after all, not an ordinary subordinate, not an ordinary employee, so the legal director asked, "What, reluctant to leave the company?"

"Not really, I just feel like, Brother-in-law... you’re too unlucky."

Red Glasses showed a scornful look: "I knew the boss’s demeanor from the first meeting."

"Brother-in-law, you’re such a capable person, yet you have to work under him, humor him." Red Glasses said sincerely, "Now you have to scramble due to his stupidity, trying to switch jobs... I just, honestly feel it’s unfair to you."

Seeing his sister-in-law speaking up for him, the legal director smiled.

He lounged comfortably in his chair.

"No need to think of it that way, this situation, or rather this circumstance, has its benefits for me too."

"Huh?" Red Glasses blinked, thinking her brother-in-law was merely comforting her.

"Boss Wang was indeed born at a good time and landed luckily at the right moment."

"And I—without being conceited, I feel like I have some ability too."

Red Glasses nodded in agreement, hearing her brother-in-law so humble.

"But if I were born in that era—could I have reached his position, or even achieved what I have now?"

The legal director tapped his desk, looking at the collection of legal codes, compilations, contracts that he relied on for survival.

Then he shook his head: "Not necessarily."

"So discard that line of thinking. Although Boss Wang seems foolish now, he still rose in his era... he does have something."

"Just not much, and he can’t keep up with the times."
