Xu Corporation – President's Office
The air inside the president's office of Xu Corporation was tense, thick with silent anticipation. The communications team had gathered to finalize the statement for tomorrow's press conference, their eyes glued to their screens, their fingers moving swiftly across their keyboards. The crisis they were handling was no small matter, and the weight of it was visible in the way they worked—shoulders stiff, brows furrowed, and lips pressed into thin lines.
But what truly added to the suffocating atmosphere was Xu Jingli himself.
Seated at the head of the conference table, the CEO's sharp gaze scanned the reports in front of him. He wasn't speaking, yet his presence alone was enough to send waves of unease through the room. He had barely said a word since the meeting started, his expression unreadable, his lips set in a firm, thin line.
No one dared to speak unless spoken to.
No one dared to make a mistake.
